    Ok, let's just stop.
     
    You're quite obviously advertising crap on the Wanted classifieds for this website and don't know anything about UKARA, we've already had people like EPICLlama spamming us with this crap. Any future posts mentioning Spraythemag will be removed. I'm also doing this so new players don't pay the prices you charge for the stuff that you sell which is just laughable.
     
    Sorry, but this is just getting boring.

    Get on here http://www.componentshop.co.uk/
     
    Get 7.4v LiPo or 9.9 LiFe (similar results generally), better in every way. Do not waste your money on heavy, bulky, over-priced obsolete batteries, totally pointless.

    I was going to say "fine, fair enough" but then you had to go and do the "high horse" thing.
     
    You asked for peoples input and you got it. You got my opinion in all its unfiltered, unedited glory (actually that's not quite true but then you'd have got really upset at what I wrote the first two times). I know now that I wasn't supposed to have the opinion of "but there's nothing wrong with calling it airsoft". Maybe you should try phrasing the question differently. Maybe start with something like "hey, just for shits and giggles what else could we call the game we play" instead of suggesting that "airsoft" is in some way not manly enough.
     
    For a general point though - and this goes out to everyone that reads this - having a differing opinion does NOT mean you're up on your "high horse". It just means you have a different opinion.
     
     
     
    I don't even like horses. Stupid poncey things.

    I had the same issue, pmd them on facebook and they were very vague about game dates. Which makes booking in advance pretty difficult!

    Hi Guys,
     
    Played my first airsoft game at the weekend with some mates (their first time too!) at The Outpost by First and Only in Kinver.
     
    Absolutely epic day, Had a blast! Even in the pitch black and my make shift torch assembly ran out of batteries at the start of the last big game
     
    Now looking into kit, and stuff I'm away and can't book my next round until mid-late September, Looking to get UKARA and then get a rifle (GM16 Raider-L?).
     
    Going to play at some other F&O sites to get a try of both CQB and woodland warfare to decide which I prefer and go from there!

    Another one of my friends is also interested in getting more into it... Watch this space

    lafta reacted to BrightCandle in Washing bb's   
    I guess a lot of people don't realise that BBs are actually polished, and they come with a slight waxy coating. One of the reasons this is done is to avoid the plastic of the BBs being laid down into the inner barrel and slowly destroying the surface. Snipers don't fire many rounds so they can get away with the residue problem and just clean their weapons barrel often enough that it likely never becomes an issue. However an AEG can fire a lot of rounds in a day and end up laying down a sufficient amount of melted plastic such that it doesn't come off.
     
    The waxy coating has two impacts, it gets left behind in the barrel and needs regular cleaning and it reduces the effect of the hop rubber on the BB as it slides past. But compared to having melted plastic in your barrel its a better option.

    So as soon as your UKARA expires you need to sell or two tone all of your RIFs?
     
    I had another quick flick through the VCRA and couldn't see anything about ownership. Just manufacturing, importing and selling.
     
    I could of course be wrong, (quite common lol), but if I am then there's a LOT of people misinformed.
