      I subscribed to AA for year when first began airsoft, trying to soak up information, but with niche hobbies, there was not that much content to make it worth renewing subs.

      Airsoft International is even less content...

      Done and done mate.

  3. i used them a bit and hardly had much fogging issues!, sometimes found they worked better than my fan goggles like the ESSV12s
  4. does anyone know what other taclights have a similar rear end to a Surefire 6P?, looking to fit to a ICS handguard, Surefire works but after a smaller in length torch if possible.... plus mine is over 20ys old.....not LED either was actually thinking of a new G2?
  5. Mx5 front grip W/o light as will try what i have first....need to now wait for new ICS Mx5 to come out in a few months haha TM glk 17 mag while Niton999 has reduced stuff.... black IMI type holster for glock 17 2 molle adaptors double mag pouch
  6. well missing out on the ICS cheap Mx5 range late last year may work out better after all. 
    ICS are supposed to be releasing a new variant of the 3burst option Mx5 series :)

    just have to wait and see....

     

  7. was that a black friday deal for me, just a load of CR123 batteries.... see how long they last before i just go back to surefire ones for 4 times the price!
  8. After the tragic events yesterday, where 2 innocent people lost their lives, one of them was from my village

      Saw it on the news.

       

      So sad to see stuff like this happen.

  9. is there anything similar in the UK to the SureFire sidekick (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Surefire-Sidekick-Ultra-Compact-Variable-Output-Flashlight/dp/B0177H4S5Q/ref=sr_1_16?dchild=1&keywords=surefire&qid=1575133802&refinements=p_89%3ASurefire&rnid=1632651031&sr=8-16)
    , wife needs a bright but small torch for 'safety' when walking home from work, seems ok, cheaper in US, is it worth ordering from there?, is customs a bitch?....some uk retailers are asking for £100 when US is $20 ish on some sites https://www.surefire.com/sidekick.html............ sorry in a rush as getting moaned at! :lol:

      Well this discussion has me wanting one of those Nebo Mycros now.  I have one of their Big Larrys and it's a great light.

  10. that feeling when you 'should' have got the AEG the day before when only 2 were left only to do it today as busy to find they are OOS...!!

     

    oh well, more annoying but maybe wasnt to be!

      Lesson to be learned. Don't hesitate. Buy instantly, short period of remorse, long time enjoyment.

  11. Any one used or have an ICS Mx5?. Do you know what other branded mid caps would work ok....? also above if you missed it!! ^^^
  12. ***Email notifications may be working....i just got one!***

  13. i remember asking this before, but with new members, it might be a different outcome now.... if you were going to buy some CR123 type batteries in bulk, what brand would you go for?, (not Surefire, as are expensive but i know will probably last longer.....) any of these any good? https://www.buyabattery.co.uk/10-x-panasonic-cr123a-lithium-batteries-3v-cr123.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIlsfo4uSK5gIVx7YYCh2eigYDEAQYASABEgL4c_D_BwE https://www.batterystation.co.uk/search.php?search_query=123&section=product bit wary tbh as have used surefire before as well As Niton999 brand....but not going to be used heavily anyway just for a few torches i have at home / car that could do with being used really
  14. when would you use a 'red light' in a tactical situation?, curious after catching up with Chicago PD and saw they used them a few times after entering a building and searching....

      ive got some filters for my old surefire 6p, also the 4 colour LED lenser (white/red/green/blue), they all have uses, curious as that was the first time ive seen them 'in use' and was on a few episodes...wasnt sure why it was used n an tactical type way :)

      they use red lights in most aircraft if you look in films.... :)

      Yep, same reason to maintain your nightvision when you look outside of cockpits.

  16. is that the one they call 'A310 – Rainsheild Coat'? ive got a Helikon windrunner, just for the walk from station to office and back but not great for heavy downpour!
  17. yeah i did the same this time last year....gotta love those Mil 1st discounts! this time round, trousers and a laptop bag
  18. They are very nice jackets (got mine from mil first with a discount code!), i have one in black, just have to spray it with nikwax every so often to keep it 'proofed'.....dont think i could spend £90+ for jacket for airsoft though, id worry id rip it!..... then the wife would kill me!
  19. nothing much for me thats exciting, just a pair of trousers and a laptop bag
  20. As Sawyers status, beware, Janet's friend is still lurking in the midst trying to scam you out of your goods.........

     

  21. Slings. Is it worth speeding the money?, do the cheaper ones break easily compared to the known brands ? My warrior single point sling, the clip is lose but i cant get it again in black as always OOS so just wondering....should i or shouldn't i go for a cheaper alternative?? my brother has a cheap one and has never had any issues, are we just drawn to the pricey ones...?
