  1. Has anyone tried the new ASG Storm grenades? Any good? Im looking for a suitable grenade for woodland play

  2. Have 'incentive designs' gone e way if the dodo? Can never seem to access their website anymore.

  3. A single reproduction ww2 stitch on para wing and toggle rope. Well it's a start to my ox and bucks 6th airborne ww2 impression I am building. Only another mortgage worth of kit to buy. But atleast the sten gun is cheap.
  4. So in my infinite wisdom. Instead of deciding to build a whole new atacs-fg loadout with new m4. I have gone for a ww2 6th airborne division look complete with sten gun. Now to start saving. 

  5. thinking about a new loadout. Would love to do something uksf but lack the finances for all the Crye and and high end stuff

      @CKinnerley has some good quality stuff for sale. Might be worth checking in to see if he has anything you may want.

      The key to building an impression kit isn't spending all your money at once. Live within your means and build it up carefully and you'll be so satisfied when it's done. Plus the big money pits, like the rig set ups, can be easily switched for replicas and still look great, TMC JPC/AVS/CPC etc are decent enough for airsoft and relatively cheap (compared to the Crye equivalents anyway). Same for the helmet, no need to spend £££s on a real opscore, just grab an FMA repro, and build off of that.

      I did look through @CKinnerley stuff @Gepard alas I believe I’m a little too..... rotund. 44’ chest and 38 waist lol. Working in a chip shop is bad for your health. 

  6. Had this picture taken this past Sunday during a game. Shows off most of my ics cxp ape the way it should be shown. Delivering pews to those foolish enough to come in range.
  7. It's early on a Sunday morning and I'm up. Only means one thing. It's time to pew. Have a great day everyone. 

  8. That's a first. Bought some 9.9v 1000mah Life batteries and they arrived pretty much fully charged. Less prep for Sunday and fielding the ics ape for the first time.

      CHECK YOUR SETTINGS

       

      DO NOT CHARGE THEM AS LIPO's !!!!

       

      Lipo's charge up to 4.2v max charge

      LiFe's charge up to 3.8v max charge

      (I think but don't quote me)

       

      you can push half a volt charge onto them

      but LiPo's are 3.7v & LiFe's are 3.3v

      So they need different settings in ya IMAX B6

      or a B3 type with a proper LiFe output

       

      You probably know all this but just passing it on

      Don't damage your LiFe's - ergh is that suicide then ?

      Don't overcharge your LiFe batteries by charging them on LiPo settings

       

      Happy charging etc....

      Don't worry and cheers for the advice Sitting Duck. They were charged on life. Fortunately the charger has a idiot proof indicator aside from the switch. Lipos settings cause all led's to turn blue and life settings cause the led's to turn green when selected. 

    4. Sitting Duck

      That is probably coz a used LiFe drops to 3v or less

      On a Lipo you get a cell failure if it goes too low

      Then you need to trickle charge the low LiPo

      When it gets back above say 3.2v or more then

      You should be able to charge the LiPo on the B6 again

       

      Too easy to plug it in to cheapo China B3 type chargers

      let it charge not knowing it will overcharge a LiFe !!!

      Some B3's have a LiFe setting or so but not all/most

       

      B6 is a bit of learning curve coz you edit the LiPo settings

      Or make up your custom one

      But I "think" it still needs to toggle Lipo to LiFe in settings

      (bit of a faff tbh)

       

      IMHO - I never found the LiFe THAT bigger difference

      compared to using a good 25c or 30c 7.4v LiPo

      maybe in stock guns but never noticed much on a tweaked gun

      Supposed to be the ideal stop gap between 7.4v & 11.1v

      Bought 9.9v for FireHawk - bloody tight fit in stock tube

      Then said sod it & chucked fixed stubby stock & cheap block 7.4v

      Somewhere I got a monster 4000mah or something for full stock

      Not that impressed so not bothered to buy again

      But it might work out OK for you in your gun

      Just watch your charge settings

      (and go deans if you can solder properly)

  9. This. Now ready for the weekend. Could have done with a sling but the budget wouldn’t go that far. Black ubacs, tan bottoms, gloves and airborne cap. Viper chest rig. Gun bag, amoeba diamond grade .28 bb’s, foregrip, ics cxp ape with 5 mags and red dot sight along with noveske suppresssor and socom suppressor. Not shown charger and 2 9.9v 1000mah life batteries.
  10. So. If you had £300 to buy a brand new airsoft gun. What would you go for? Suitable for outdoor woodland play.

      @Prisce It would certainly be the more fun option, never leave the safe zone without mine ;) 

       

      Often its the only thing I take!

      You and me both! I keep getting called a dirty b@5t@rd with mine... apparently something that quiet and deadly makes people upset.

      Probably another VZ58, get a second compact, but with the standard VZ mags instead of M16 mags this time; just for a change! :lol:

  11. Back to airsoft round 3. Time to start all over again. Sucked having to sell everything 

    1. Sako

      Sako

      Currently doing the same...painful having to shell out £££’s again 

  12. Thank you. They are the ares short midcaps. I liked the look of them over the normal length m4 midcaps
  13. Lessons of the weekend. My krytac is awesome sauce. All goggles go to heaven eventually. Valken bb's are crap. Old training never dies. 

  14. 1st game day with my new krytac lvoa-s. Oh my god I'm in gun love. It's awesome. 

  15. Finished off the build of my newest toy today. Really happy with the way she looks. Just need to dial in the hop on Sunday and get to some bb slinging chaos.
  16. Added an ares short foregrip and UFC sight in cantilever mount tomthe krytac today. She's now complete and so is the nigh on £700 dent in my wallet for the last few days of airsoft excess
  17. Yesterday was a good day. 

    Wallet doesn't agree but believe me. It was good

  18. Yesterday was a good day. I still need to buy a sight for this. No idea what though. Suggestions welcome. Krytac lvoa s. Guarder hop rubber. 8 ares amoeba 120 short mid cap mags, krytac patch, cmr rail cover kit, 5000 .28 Valken bb's (are these any good). Viper dump pouch.
  19. Impatiently waiting for a call/Mail from pro-airsoft confirming the arrival of their krytac shipment with my new lmg in it. Dakka dakka dakka

  20. Does anyone know what assault vest/plate carrier is worn by 'nomad' in the ghost recon wildlands game?

    1. Chopper92

      Chopper92

      Looks like an assault vest to me mate , but it looks to have slightly customised pouch setup and he's twinned it with a stand alone rucksack, attached a link to something similar below mate

  21. Bit of an odd one today. I phoned wolf enquiringly about the pts rm4 erg and some attachments. Very quickly added up to £600 worth of gear. I had barely finished describing what I was after, when the guy (didn't get a name unfortunately) started trying to push a Tokyo Marui on me instead. Even when I said I did not want a TM he kept pressing about it being the much better gun etc etc.. not really sure if this is an off day for them or not. But really has me questioning where I might spend my money and in turn what gun I might now buy ( had been a pts rm4 erg from wolf or a krytac enhanced lmg from pro airsoft).
  22. In reality. Is there going to be much difference in accuracy between a 10.5 inch and 14.5 inch barrel ? Especially for woodland play

      To be honest I was sure if it would. But wanted to double check 

  23. When the gun you want to buy goes out of stock :( what just happened at wolf armouries. Suddenly no stock

      What are you after?

      Was looking at kwa scout erg mate. But a. Restricted to places I could get to. May get a TM instead 

  24. Uextra pouches won't last long. They will be full of midcaps in a couple of weeks. I prefer midcaps to high caps personally. Was thinking about grabbing some of the viper elite trousers with the built in knee pads. would love a lighter more agile plate carrier or maybe chest rig though. That's an old style warrior carrier loaded up, its like carrying a small kid about. But I need to strike the balance between pouch real estate and agility.
  25. Cheers guys, I had heard things had improved a lot. I also saw on their fb page a complaint that the manager dealt with very quickly. I'm going in to pick up a new gun in a few weeks and will be spending (for me) a fairly decent amount of cash on it and accessories. So I just wanted a little more reassurance they had sorted their acts out.
