I've used the Warrior universal, viper universal and the Dtd. Warrior wins all round.

Update, Note: this has has a zci inner barrel, maple leaf macaron (330fps version) and omega nub installed. Now that I've used this for 5 games since last posted I can give an update on the performance. Accuracy: Semi = very consistent Auto/3 burst = terrible Range: Semi = 50 - 60m Auto/3 burst = 50-60m Reliability : Never had a single issue. So far it has been impressive on this point. Feeding: G&G 90rnd = 100% every time. Battleaxe 150rnd= only the last 3-6 won't feed. Overall : Apart from the full auto inaccurate shots I can't fault it. I have toyed with the idea of changing the mosfet to to perin and installing a different trigger for less pull but for now I am leaving it as is. Thank you to you all (afuk forum members) who helped answer my questions and give great advice parts for this. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

- to not act instinctively and make judgement /decisions that you may later regret. For instance buying/selling something you don't want or will miss. Another example is when you feel like you have been cheated by another player or the site itself and you rely on on your will power /integrity to not break any rules in retaliation and remain composed.

1)Well paid job 2)Credit cards 3)Understanding partner 4)time management (to tinker/diagnose and repair) 5) sense of humour 6) will power.

I've been running one of those helikon mesh caps, bolle x800s with a mesh mask cable tied to the goggles. Sadly I've been running a buff to cover my neck which i also stretch to cover ears so this will not help with cooling so I'm going to ditch it next game or just have it around my neck. Some days they fog up when Im static after a big fast paced game but I have just ordered some revision wipes so I'm hoping that they reduce this issue. If this set up continues to fod il look into fan goggles but heroshark are a no go as I don't fancy shattered bb's in my only pair of eyes.

3 brands spring (sorry) to mind. Well Cyma Novritsch These are not replicas of the l96 but of a later variation but with a little tape and craft it can look like an actual l96. If your going for the 80s look then a nice tash is a must.

The g&g knights armament sr25 has the beefier gearbox (g2). Might be worth sending the std sr back and getting one of those instead. If you plan to rip it apart and spend a lot on the internals... Get either but I'd go for the stronger gearbox version for dmr.

You guys are the best! the advice you're giving me is truly awesome and for that I am grateful. Thank you Wavey_Gravey for your recommendations on the good and the not so good pouches. Have you any experience of using either of these pouches? if so how easy was it to reinsert the mag? Some days are very slow where I only use 4 magazines in a day😢 whereas other days I can use up my full set of magazines without moving a meter in a defensive position/scenario😍. I would prefer to have my magazines as readily available as I can so long as they're secure rather than fumbling around, moving emptied magazines etc especially when in firefight with an enemy. I don't play airsoft to 'look the part', I go to have fun, shoot other players(especially those with exceptional magazine admin skills😉), help my team win if I can and use kit that is simple and works best for my style of play. If I cared about what others think of how I look when playing airsoft of all things, then I would be concerned for my mental health.

Full9- thanks🤣. 6 x on my plate carrier and 2 x on my belt isn't odd for my airsoft setup but everyone is entitled to their opinions. "Real guys doing real shit" ...its airsoft...its OK to do things differently. If that works for you then great but I'm only here to ask for advice on the mag pouches only. thanks anyway. Hatchet-thanks for the recommendation on the dump pouch but I'm trying to bin it from my kit. I may end up going hsgi if I can't find any others 😔. Rostockmcspoons- thanks for the information 😁I did look at those but I'm not a fan. If I find anything il send you a pm.unless you find something sooner 😂

You guys are a vast wealth of knowledge and I'd like to tap into it again. I'm trying to recycle and hopefully reuse my current pouches or if I must... Spend money. Ive currently got 5 x warrior 5.56 mag pouches (the elastic bungee types with a pull tab on the top) but I'm wanting to have 8 x fast mag pouches that I can remove a mag and slip it back in once used. I'm not a fan of dump pouches anymore. So has anyone got any experience of modifying normal pouches (like my current ones) to hold mags securely without the need for the elastic over the top? I was thinking of just running elastic through to sides without buying those plastic inserts. Alternatively I've seen the nupr.... Yep that horrible brand..... Nuprol V2 fast mags that go for £11.99 in most shops. Are they OK or does anyone else know of any other products that are good value? I'm not wanting to be paying warrior prices as I've learnt the hard way (bought lots years ago after it's "all the rage" only to find the viper kit is just as good). The hsgi pouches would be my first choice but no way would I feel good with myself for paying that much per mag pouch. As usual guys, I appreciate your time and help. Thanks

You sure his username isn't "seven nation army"?

I had to throw on my non airsoft North face jacket as the rain was really dropping. Ended up tearing a sleeve somehow so it's now joined my airsoft kit box.

Tango down chronograph. The ultimate operator chrono experience..... Marshall "has anyone not yet been tango'd!"............ SLAP.

🤦‍♂️We've got it all wrong. Every player brings a coke can. Sorted.

First visit to adrenalin in North Yorkshire. The site is very well run and despite the monsoon all were up for what lay ahead. This particular event was a Halloween special battlesim which all proceedings were donated to charity. At chrono they had multiple weight bb's and use whatever they had closest to the weight I used. Then we had a brief under shelter and off to the first game. Quick games, fast changeovers, not a single person being a dick. Lots made a great effort to get dressed up as nuns with chainsaws, fluffy bunny's, zombies and a very mixed array of costumes to have a chuckle at. Later on the zombies had god mode (cannot die) so after almost being stood on by one after clever concealment I had to run. By this point I was on my 3rd 150 rnd mag so the bb's weren't flying down range as normal but the game style was to not be seen and shoot to survive. Now somewhere between my hiding spot and 150m worth of zig-zagging through dense bracken /woodland the rear part of the butt stock fell off, thankfully the battery fell out as I sprinted across the trail as a Marshall found it. So for around and hour I looked but nothing was found. Since I only took the kac sr15 and the mk23 I didn't fancy the rest of the day as the afternoon consists of a huge firefight between both teams. I called it a day after another long search as as it was raining, didn't want to f my sr15 up by being silly in the rain. Thankfully I have these exact spares at home so I don't have to buy the pts eps stock that I really, really want. I only got 3 hrs gameplay but it was more than enough to establish what a great site this is. Thoroughly enjoyed the event.

Come on chaps let's all agree to disagree. I started this post but quickly realised what a waste of time it was. Fuck all will ever change in airsoft chrono testing until either something catastrophic happens or a manufacturer brings something to the market that does the job the sites can't be arsed to do. Happy Halloween

@Prince I will try my best to answer your question Am I an experienced sniper = yes I use the ssg10 (started off as the A1 model but later bought the A3 stock as I didn't like the A1 grip). Have I had other Airsoft sniper rifles? = yes (in order: well MB01, MB08, vsr10, SRSA1) 1)Hitting 80m with no problems is achievable with a few minor upgrades (tridos TDC and a very thorough strip, clean and re-lube of the entire RIF). 2)Hitting 80m with no problems is very difficult to do if there are variable wind speeds, poor quality BB's or user error. 3)Will you start hitting 80m targets on the first gameday after buying your new fully upgraded RIF? NO. things will need to bed in and the first few game days expect the odd shot to disappoint. 4)Would I recommend the SSG10? It's a great value rifle to start from and upgrade. There are other options out there such as action army, silverback and the TM VSR10 which also require upgrades to have that performance most players dream of (YouTube videos do not show airsoft sniping very well). I would suggest that you pop along to your local site, or visit a few and ask to hold/try out other players rifles as some options might not feel right for you, so find the one that you like the feel/look of and then research upgrade options into that model. You will also hear their stories on how good/bad it is sniping and the pain they had getting their rifle to shoot how it does. Good luck.

Thank for all of your input. I wasn't aware of the abundance of ways players could cheat. That said, this thread can be deleted as its clearly utterly pointless/futile. So MODERATORS, please delete or leave it to sink away into the abyss.

EDcase, This is brilliant stuff so thanks, just what is needed to resolve this issue. The more 'ways to cheat' or problems as I see them the better in order to eliminate them at the chronograph testing procedure. Regards the players who cheat the Chrono via applying too much hop: This would be difficult to police and I would like to think that sites have a very well airsoft educated/time-served Marshall carrying out the chronograph tests. This way the Marshall could jot the players name down if he/she had an incline that the rif was over-hopped and could carry out a random Chrono shortly after game start.

Please don't bite as this is just a passing thought. This forum (along with other Airsoft forums) has enough intellect in its member to collaborate and create a template email/letter to ask our sites to change how it measures our RIF'S at Chrono. If we ALL send/hand in this template the message will get across that they're acting wrongfully by potentially allowing "hot RIF'S" in gameplay. I can't see the site owners taking any offence to this as they should take safety very seriously to ensure the future of this hobby and their businesses. Something on the lines of; Dear airsoft site, I ...............................am asking for you to stop using the current method of carrying out chronograph testing with 0.20g bb's as this method cannot determine accurately the joule rating if a different weight bb which the user will use. I am suggesting for the safety of the players that you adopt the method of carrying out chronograph tests using the players bb's which they will be using and measuring the joule rating instead of FPS(feet per second). Regards, ........................................ signed .............................. Date ....../......./........ If needed, a concise explanation of joule creep could be included with an example to avoid any debate on how the physics works which may help avoid debates with site owners/Marshall's on these grounds. Can we all work together and collectively as a whole across all forums, social media etc to all apply this email/letter to sites? Dare I say it but...even get in touch with the well known YouTube Airsofters and ask them to assist in getting this off the ground? If we can have some big names and companies on board (brands/UKAPU/popular players/retailers) then maybe they'd be happy for us to mention them on the letter to add leverage.

All I'm going to say is that its nowhere near 2.5j but sadly its over 2.32j. I'm being lazy (plus I currently don't have the time to go and Chrono it again at this moment) but from memory I think it was 2.38j on 0.43g bb's. So when I get a chance il remove a spring spacer to get it as close to 2.25j just to be safe. That is of course unless I sell it first in the mean time. Thankfully my AEG is 0.98j with 0.28g bb's so it's pretty legal but still it can "HiT a ThReE iNcH gRoUp At 100 'airsoft' MeTeRs ObViOuSlY"

Due to airsoft site insurance policies you cannot max out those figures. I am a little annoyed as My springer set to 500fps on .20 which is great for some sites but other sites have the joule rule and some other sites enforce a different joule rating (this applies to both full auto & semi using the weight bb you plan to use).....Man I wish sites would all sing from the same hymn sheet for once and for all. I would change the joules of all your RIF's to meet the requirement by the site which you intend to attend which has the lowest joule rules per RIF. Unless that is of course that you enjoy tinkering and don't mind stripping a rif to change bits to increase/decrease joules/fps to suit each field?

So i'm going to my first ever battle-sim which is zombie themed (halloween I guess) and the game plan looks pretty fun, there is even prizes for best kills etc. I haven't played in a long time so i'm going to get shot to sh*t but it's all fun and for a good cause so what's not to like? If anyone else is interested in going its based near Richmond (N.Yorkshire) and all proceedings will be donated to 'the army benevolent fund'. link below to their Facebook advert or google Adrenalin Airsoft and give them a call to enquire. https://www.facebook.com/events/380456973783297 (Just thought I'd mention that I have no ties with this site what so ever and this will be my first time playing there)

Man that sucks and I am glad you and your family are ok. I am not a battery expert but his is the reason why Ive stuck to Ni-Mh batteries and renew them every 2 years. Im not a die hard air softer so my kit gets stored in a place where its out of sight (like a garage or shed) so If there were to be a battery failure/fire I wouldn't be aware of it until its too late. For me the extra rps Id be achieving isn't worth the risk, especially when you have a family and a house full of items that cannot be replaced. It's all about knowing the risks and taking preventive steps to avoid such tragedies.

For a long game I run a helikon training mini rig (4 mid caps and 2 mk23 mags), a cheap molle shooters belt that carries a mk23 pistol, a quake 8 bfg, warrior slim dump pouch, 5 midcaps (why not)and a warrior med pouch for ssg10 mags if I play sniper. For shorter games I ditch the chest rig and run the 5 mags and the single mk23 with one mag in it and the trusty bfg. I tried plate carriers but they make me overheat and I find them excessive for airsoft. The helikon tmr is the best rig I've used (I've tried a few, but not all obv) for most styles of play and sits very comfortably whilst leaving the back free to help with cooling. Unfortunately the only way you'll know what works for you is to try each which means either buying stuff or borrowing it.
