  1. The CYMA and TM P90s both have the same listed weight at retailers. EDIT: Did not realise you were comparing different guns.

  3. I bought a black hexmag when I got the G&G CM18, I like the look of it and it is much slimmer than the G&G 120. Going to test feeding it tomorrow, if it works well i'll get another, in a different colour - not sure I have a need for lots of 120 midcaps though, but if I like one of the 3 colours I might buy a 5pack.
  4. Do we need a sub forum for all G&G posts? :)

      No what they should do is impose a 35yr ban on G&G then people might realise there are other brands out there.

      And I wouldnt kick a G&G it would be like stepping in dog sh*t. Lol

      I had a whole list of upgrades to get for my G&G as it breaks down, but after examining it, I don't like the external QC at all, going to sell it after about 5k bbs and buy something better. Most likely TM, VFC or Magpul.

      All joking aside keep the G&G even if you get a second aeg it will make a solid back up. Dont buy a VFC good once not anymore I would rate G&G higher. TM, Pts Rm4, Krytac or Real sword are the best places to go for a good quality aeg. G&P and the higher end Ics guns not far behind.

  5. Check social media too. I've found 8 skirmish sites so far that have abandoned their web sites or never had any, but operate from FB now. Personally I don't like it, but meh, it works.

Notice the car and skip for some scale.
  7. Well, first some information about yourself? How old are you? (answer is either 18+ or not 18+) What country are you in? If you keep moving the goalpost, the amount you're willing to pay, even as you are educated, you may never pin anything down. Do you need an automatic weapon? Do you intend to actually play airsoft? I played my first 4 skirmishes without an automatic weapon, I have to say, with CQC at least it really is not needed - and often barred. How large is the area you intend to play in, if under 30-40m I would recommend a Tokyo Marui Glock 17 Gas Blowback Pistol. They're around £120 (with 1 mag). Gas is around £10 for 50-75 mag fills @ at least 35 shots per fill). After that you need only silicone gun oil £5, BBs £5, eye protection £25. Extra magazines are £25 for 26rd and £35 for 50rd.
  8. And a lot airsofters of don't use full seal eye pro - referring to mesh, so don't take these anywhere near the sport.
  9. Just wondering, it's clearly not a much discussed topic (I'm sure there are reasons), and is certainly underhanded insofar as competing with UK businesses, That said, my general observation has been that even with taxes/duty the price of buying from the HK retailers tends to only come down to availability, shipping cost, shipping time, and cheapness(even when expecting to pay VAT/duty @ 1.25). I recently had a $500 order from HK, excellent stuff. A single store with the entire Flyye range, much better than 5-6 in the UK to get everything I wanted, at the time of ordering I factored in paying 1.25 for importing etc but it was still cheaper than the UK, and they had to restock some items too, but I was quite shocked when it was delivered with a marked value of 1/10th of what I paid and I pocketed £85 the govt was due. Edgy subject, I name no retailers! I said 'unfairly compete' in the title, but TBH they were cheaper even when I thought I would have to pay x1.25 on import.
  10. Worth adding that, despite the good rep, the VFC SCAR L has a proprietary hop chamber. I wanted to buy one, but was advised against it by a retailer. If not for this, I would have bought one. Next year once i've played around with a few guns I probably will buy one though.
  11. I'd add http://store.specwarfare.com/en/ to that list, I just received an order from them, I thought the prices($390 + $85 shipping) were good and they appear to have the entire flyye range.
  12. Whatever you think is going on here, it's not. I've been chilling with a movie and $400 of flyye gear that came this morning. Funnily enough of all the things I bought, the PC is the only thing I was not excited about, thankfully it was only $110 with foam plates and only added $3 to the postage. It's the one I want but I doubt i'll use it in this season. I do a lot of research, some say too much, but I assure you all that any care I took today, such as making the battery mobile and staying within a 1m of it at all times had nothing to do with me, and only to do with where I am living, care for others. I know you both mean well, unfortunately i've read comments by others saying the same thing 10s of times on other forums. Loz, I laughed at the mobile phone comment for that reason. (no hard feelings! but I am relaxed) Now to test my AEG.
  13. Yes, but I am not worried about a Lithium Ion battery, I have heard nothing bad about them. I didn't do it for my personal safety, if I was at home I might have even left the room a few times, but here I live with many other people, and the list of prohibited fire hazard items is huge. The building management take fire very very seriously. Don't mistake my being responsible, for being gullible.
  14. Haha, when one venue replaces another, there is not more choice Going to bunk 51 this weekend, I don't really want too, but I have to, for reasons.
  15. My phone does not have a LiPo battery. Besides, it's my first time, ... I'm not making this joke.
  16. Says on FB its 300x300 metres. But that could be hearsay (though it's from a Airborne Airsoft staff). I think that's 12 (3x4)football pitches - hope that means something to you - i've never seen one (except on tv) so I don't know.
  17. Where did you order from, I'm in need of a Chronograph. I'd like to order from not UK, as they don't appear to be on sale in the UK.
  18. What exactly is the problem? If something goes wrong and I need to do something about it, a frying pan is a perfect way to move the battery into the kitchen (where there are 2 fire extinguishers and 4 fire blankets and 3 windows). I mean obviously if it 'combusted' it wouldn't matter what it was in (I would have bought a safety bag - but I cannot discern the fakes). But if it just malfunctioned in a minor way, I could move it. It's been charging nearly 3 hours and I've not been less than 1m from it the whole time, I'm not irresponsible.
  19. Just started charging my first lipo - in a frying pan. It's this one: WE Airsoft Europe 7.4V 2600mAH 20C Crane Stock LiPO (LWA)
  20. Had first run in with poor EMERSON, G3 pants with kneepad pockets sewn shut. :/

      I'll post some if I cant RMA, but I'm not sure what they'd show. Looks like the stitching goes right through to a parallel line, I cant see a way to break just one.

      Retailer asked for a picture, when I pulled hard on the velcro (for the picture), I discovered they were not faulty, just they were more sophisticated than I expected.

  21. Flyye Gen 2 (3 rows of rear molle) arrived today, I like it more than I expected, ruined my hand's on the molle and the pouches, havent even taken the PC out of it's bag.

  22. Astigmatism was the issue specsavers lied to me about (years ago).
  23. I asked specsavers for contacts, they said I couldn't have them. They lied, they just did not stock the brand required for my condition. As I found out when I went to their competitor in our local town and never set foot there again. Never let someone tell you you can have something without a 2nd opinion.
  24. Thats helpful! I only went with the cheaper charger as I don't plan to buy any more AEGS.
