      Vision King is good if your on a small budget 

  2. Good news this morning. 

    Filed a PayPal case against Ruoskygear on aliexpress for failing to send the fma helmet and got an email today to say a full PayPal refund is being issued! Offsets the £40 I paid for one off patrolbase in the end

      Nice one.  I love PayPal for this, and just fire up a dispute 5 minutes after the promised delivery date now.

  3. Gotta love amazon Sunday deliveries. One Tigris ops core style helmet cover turned up today and was fitted to the fma exfil. Just have to pick up my atacs ix stuff from the post office tomorrow as I was in Nottingham at Warhammer world when they tried to deliver. Typical. Then wait for my throat mic/ptt/earpiece combo to arrive from radioworld and all will be good.
  4. Fancy dress airsoft at Combat Action Games. 80’s  theme. So no plate carrier etc. Gonna try and pull off something resembling slash from GnR. Guitar melee kills anyone

      Don't cross the streams. Need a proton blaster aeg

  5. The bfg is mostly for bunker clearing as the local site has a lot of small bunkers and fox holes. Anything else will still be paper pyro as you can lob that more safely that a pound of metal
  6. Had these turn up so far today and the postie hasn’t even been yet. 511 tdu duty belt for keeping those trousers up. In keeping with a lighter feel to my kit. Flyye water bottle pouch as opposed to running about with a camelback and courtesy of patrol base. Fma exfil (team Wendy clone) helmet. Worked out just as cheap as the Ali express one and a whole lot less hassle. Now I’m just waiting for my Leo kholer atacs ix trousers and ubacs and my 1t opscore style multicam helmet cover.
  7. Don’t use ruoskygear store on aliexpress. Ordered a fma exfil lite foliage green helmet last Monday. 4 days ago (2 before the cancellation deadline) they asked if I would accept dark earth instead which was ok. Yesterday morning it was marked as despatched. A few hours before automatic cancellation. Today they message to say they don’t have DE would black be ok. Well clearly it hasn’t been despatched and they are lying.

      Can’t cancel the order as they have declared it as shipped. Also can’t open a disputed until 10 days after it’s marked as shipped.

      Gutted for you mate. That's the one time that AliExpress is an issue, when it goes wrong!

      Just FYI, the FMA Unity Tactical style helmet adaptors won't work on an Exfil helmet. I had to blag the adaptor from Unity Tactical themselves which cost an arm and a leg for two little bits of metal!

    4. ghostwalker

      ghostwalker

      They the adapters for things like sordins and contacts headsets? If so I’m ok as I run a throat mic with security style ear piece. 

  8. no more fighting tooth and nail with the crappy xl burst grenade. Nope as of today pappa has a brand new toy. Dynatex timed bfg with some 9mm blanks. Also now have some Leo Kholer atacs ix trousers and a ubacs enroute to me too.
  9. so i got a multicam plate carrier and battlebelt with a helmet on the way. Question is what camo to get. Multicam, mc tropic, mc black, atacs or something else. Cant decide.

      Well that stung @Lozart but £140 later and i have the leo kholer trousers and ubacs coming to me.

      should go well with the Multicam plate carrier and battle belt, along with the helmet with multicam cover (if aliexpress ever sip it). Oooooh and got me a nice Dynatex timed bfg for some woodland chaos too

  10. Picked this up today. Warrior low profile plate carrier with SAPI plates. Warrior pathfinder chest rig. Solo industries belt with blue force double m4 pouch, warrior pistol mag pouch, warrior tan small utility pouch, grenade pouch, ATACS fg warrior universal pistol holster, viper roll up dump pouch and a tactical tailor 7.62 mag pouch. Mall for the princely sum of £160. Also ordered a dynatex timed bfg with blanks. Want a fma exfil helmet, tried Ali express but cancelled today as after a week the seller still hadn’t shipped it.
  11. Don’t know if I ever properly posted this. But here is my precious if somewhat temperamental baby. Kwa/Pts rm4 erg.
  12. Uh oh. Might be joining the multiglam brigade. Warrior cpc,pathfinder chest rig, solo international belt with assorted extra pouches and warrior universal pistol holster. All for £160. I think I might have to bite. 

  13. That moment when you get some unexpected money and you have to decide. New warrior recon/pathfinder with all the bells and whistles and a bfg. Or a new rif.

      NEED ? What is this word ? 

    4. ghostwalker

      ghostwalker

      Looks like new kit, bfg and mags for my erg are in the cards. Finally trade up from the 30/60’s to 30/120 mags. Just need a decent woodland grenade now. 

  14. Thought of the day. 

    For the occasional (fortnightly) average joe skirmisher. Is the extra money for something like warrior gear really worth it over your 8fields, tmc etc. 

    Looking at a new loadout for myself and considering a od warrior pathfinder/plate carrier combo. 

    1. heroshark

      heroshark

      depends what your bothered by eg colours of camo if you are getting a camo one . Also if you are gonna stick with it . I found the cheap stuff perfectly serviceable. 

       

    2. ghostwalker

      ghostwalker

      I tend to switch between loadouts. Been running about in my tears of the sun impression for best part of a year. Mix in my more pmc black/tan loadout when playing non woodland or cqb 

    3. heroshark

      heroshark

      well I'd go cheap then if You are not gonna stick with it

       

  15. What’s people’s the best helmet with bang for your buck. Thinking bump style helmet.

      What’s your concerns with the thickness ?

      Just feels super cheap, you can bend the helmet easy.

      Ok fair enough , I can vouch they are strong enough to protect from an impact though after having half a brick knocked out of 1st floor window (a derelict farm house at the old pathfinder site Swansea valley) bounce of one I was wearing , freely admit I did see stars AND had a killer headache for a good few hrs afterward but I was ok and the helmet wasn’t even cracked , you could see white staring in the plastic from the impact but no cracking .👍

  16. on the prowl for a new belt as my el cheepo has given up the ghost. Cant decide between the frv shooters belt or a warrior gunfighter.

  17. my PTS KWA ERG lives once more. Talk about a pain to sort in the end. Intermittent fault making it worse.  

    All new connectors. Still not properly fixed. 

    Completely rewired. Still not fixed. 

    New motor. Eureka finally rocking like it should. £110 on repairs ouch.

      It was second hand. Just a few years old and had trouble figuring out what was causing the fault. But it ran flawlessly today

      Druid799

      Things like this do my swede in ! 🤬

      hence I only buy 2nd hand these days from guys I know off from there online foot print , don’t know you or of you ? Then sorry I ain’t buying from you .

      In fairness @Druid799 it was working fine for about 6 months. Then just after Xmas it developed an intermittent fault that was really awkward to diagnose. Think the motor was just knackered, it just seemed more like to be a connector/contact wiring issue as it was so random. 

  18. Ics cxp ape and kwa erg both back up and running thanks to Sean at Combat Action Games. Ape needed a new piston and the erg wasn’t the trigger mech after all. Just a faulty connector. 

    Happy days and only £25 out of pocket. 

    Ics mars needs proper surgery though as main board is fried. 

  19. Cant believe my run of bad luck. 

    Ics cxp ape - piston stripped a few months ago. 

    2 weeks ago trigger mech fried on my kwa erg. 

    Today everything fine. Get home ics mars starts running away on full auto and won’t stop unless the battery is disconnected. 

    All 3 primaries knackered

      That’s part of the hobby. 

       

      Now you have the fun of fixing them.

    3. Asomodai

      The ape is an easy fix considering its a split gearbox. Get a new piston and install it, wont take more then 20 minutes first time.

      welcome to airsoft, its why i have so many guns- i can generally keep 1 or 2 going at any one time :P

  20. Tired, bruised, aching all over. I think that’s a sign of a good days airsoft having been had. 

    1. Monkman

      Monkman

      Same, but will keep going as long as I can....Makes me feel alive and still gets the blood pumping!  "They can only take my gun from my cold, dead hands"  :)

    2. ghostwalker

      They ain’t ever taking mine. That’s what super glue was invented for. Though they can take the cxp ape seeing as it stripped its piston just before the final big fight for Main Street at pleasurewood hills. 

  21. Tick tick watching the clock. One more work shift tomorrow then Operation Plastic Storm and 200 players descending on the Pleasurewood Hills theme Park for a day of airsoft. 

  22. Best suggestions for a sub £100 pistol. Preferably suitable for winter too and maybe an extra mag. Thinking the asg mk23. Any other good suggestions ?

  23. After McGyver-zing a mollie holder for my AI burst xl grenade. Time to put it through its paces in woodland airsoft today. 

  24. woo hoo. Missed the last Combat Action Games event at the pleasurewood hills theme park. Not missing the next one in november though. Airsoft in a themepark
