  1. Something to put a smile on your face, a Giant panda rolling in the snow. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-35392623
  2. Not a straight line but following county borders making the South: Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Rutlandshire, Northamptonshire,Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire; and then in Wales, Radnorshire and Cardiganshire.
  3. Had lost track (pun intended) of the original question; such a simple answer could be made a sticky - the only £150 G&G to buy.
  4. And yet again we derail a thread. Although this has been a more instructive one than usual.
  5. Either could be correct, it depends on the context of the welcome. 'Your' could refer to it being "[this link is] your welcome [to the forum]". UR wecome
  6. Not aware of this piece of kit so I used Google for this review http://www.popularairsoft.com/reviews/sat-variable-velocity-device-vvd And this retailer http://uk.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_AEG_Cylinders_Pistons_SAT_Variable_Velocity_Device_VVD.htm
  7. Check that your site is UKARA registered, not all are. You should still be able to buy guns in the UK with a valid site membership though even if not on the UKARA database. Just as Mr Duck says, check details with your local site to make sure you know what they will allow you to do, whether games before your 18th birthday count towards membership once 18.
  8. I was just checking emails and saw the latest offer and thought someone might find it useful. I was pleased with my Pentagon jacket in wolf grey.
  9. UK Tactical have 20% off all Pentagon kit until midnight Sunday 24 Jan, use discount code PENT20 http://www.uktactical.com/c-683-pentagon-tactical.aspx So a £73 jacket wil be £58.37
  10. No it is good that you are asking questions. Will always tell new members to read the pinned threads and also to use the search button to find other threads with keywords. Retarded (or cognitive impairment if you prefer) would be incorrectly referring to a rifle as a "sniper" and not the person
  11. Now that will open up the floodgates! The first guns that caught my eye were the HK416 ones by VFC Umarex due to the YouTube videos, and the range of different stocks. I like the idea of sliding / collapsable stock but the full stock has the advantage of simply dropping the battery into it instead of being front wired in a PEQ box. However, few people seemed to have VFC or rate them. Although slightly more expensive the Tokyo Marui HK416 is a great gun out of the box, and I have not regretted buying one.
  12. Hueys link fixed, select OPS (UR-Tactical) brand
  13. OPS brand make a range of multicam black clothing and kit. It is sold by UR Tactical in HongKong http://www.ur-tactical.com and by Hueys in UK http://www.hueys.co.uk/epages/es151784.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/es151784/Categories/Brands
  14. The HK416 is shorter so easier to manouvre in tight CQB environment but nothing to stop you using either one. As has already been said the 416 magazine will fit in more magazine pouches, standard size for fixed pouches on most chest rig / plate carriers. I thought that the VFC / Umarex guns were in the £400-450 price range.
  15. Could be a cheaper way to make your own multicam black, get secondhand pair and dyd them. Of course you need to remember that you can dye clothing darker but not lighter. So you could always try using a dark grey dyd first and see how that looks before going straight to black. Amazon have dye for £6 http://www.amazon.co.uk/DYLON-Pewter-Grey-Machine-350g-Salt/dp/B00TZUE2ZK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1453491902&sr=8-2&keywords=grey+dye
  16. This link from New Player Guides & Info is the FAQ on UKARA http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/1254-popular-ukara-questions/. Read the pinned posts in New Players & Arrivals, it will help answer some questions you may have. http://www.airsoft-f...ayers-arrivals/
  17. Welcome to the forum Being under 18 means that you will need to have full face protection, so either a full mask or combination of goggles and lower face mesh (protecting nose and mouth). I think that having your own eye protection is better than using rented ones because you can wear something that you like and know only has your sweat inside. There are lots of options to choose and a range of prices. Search on terms 'fogging', 'mask', 'mesh', and 'goggles' to see some of the threads on the subject and opinion of other players. You may want to try a few games first just to see if you like the hobby before buying your own kit.
  18. UKARA is not a licence just a retailer database, which you do not have to be on.

  19. Ah yes, experience vs wisdom. Experience is tripping over a curb, wisdom is watching someone else tripping over and avoiding it yourself.
  20. I now have several spares which i will bring to the private game in February in case anyone wants one. I usually end up buying a few versions to get the one I like the most or which fits best, and the rest get consigned to the airsoft drawer of redundant kit.
  21. I chose 'neilbbdev' because I could order just 5 disks at a time and get them custom sized, has a good range of smaller sizes. Very fast delivery and well packed, I would use again and recommend him. Order placed on Saturday 16 Jan and arrived on Wednesday 20 Jan.
  22. Five 25mm x 2mm cast acrylic disks for flashlight lens protector, customised to 22mm. Only £2.70 from eBay. A have previously ordered 3mm thick ones but for some torches they are a little too thick to fit inside. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171861257676?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&var=470794230257&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
  23. Amazing where those things turn up, and not always the same colour or brand that I use. That is why I collect all the ones I find and put them in a bag for sale on eBay at reasonable rates http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/28214-used-bbs-for-sale/
  24. Some options are not to play any CQB sites/games, lay down with the sniper rifle and remain hidden, wear some thicker clothes and just man-up. Alternately this is always an option, rofl - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Childs-Motorbike-Enduro-Sports-Armour/dp/B00DG0BDEI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453288750&sr=8-1&keywords=bmx+armour
