      They did it back in December and after a call, they unblocked it and I was free to make the transaction. However, they said they won't unblock the card this time as they sent a new one without telling me. Gonna have to go without food for a while :lol:

      Ended up calling Parcelforce and telling them to get the driver back here! Sure enough, he arrived minutes later saying "he couldn't find the address". He was right outside :ph34r:

      What's the best courier for gas mags, expresse48 via Parcelforce?

      Nope - UPS with a business account, only ones who won't regularly seize and destroy.

  4. Anyone ever had a visit from Police after ordering firearm parts from the USA (Via brownells UK), such as a stock and pistol grip?

      (To be honest, I'm terrified of armed police coming round - I'm worried they're get their facts wrong, try some forced entry, then shoot our dogs, let our brain damaged rescue cat out (who'll never find her way back even after 5 years here) and damage our antique piano during a search. Repairing a small scratch on that can cost in excess of £700.)

      Apparently they like to arrive a week or so later to check up on you and the package. If it does happen then it's just likely to be two officers, according to those who have had the experience 

  5. Anyone happen to have 1 black Magpul Ranger Plate?

  6. Just bought a few GHK G5 bits from Samoon. Anyone know how long delivery to the UK takes?

  7. Anyone with a 3D printer able to create something relatively simple I have in mind? Please PM me :)

  8. My PDW build is coming together! More stuff arrived for it today

  9. I just paid a lot more money that I would have liked for a suppressor and an EOTech variant.

      how much, if u dont mind?

    2. MILITATED

      Overall, about £140 for an Osprey suppressor w/ power up kit and an EOTech 553 (I like it more than the 551/2) D:

      Oh I'm definitely grateful, just wouldn't call my channel huge :P if love to end the contract, but the didn't fancy replying to me when I asked what the status of my contract was around the ending period so I assume they just went ahead and renewed it... Absolute joke! Won't respond to anything now.

  12. Got my 8 inch WE PDW! Absolutely incredible gun :) What's the best weight BB for GBBRs?

    1. two_zero

      two_zero

      depends on FPS and personal preferences.

    2. MILITATED

      MILITATED

      Approximately 330 - I just don't think 0.2 is the best option. Maybe 0.28? I want something that can go fairly far and stay accurate, but not something that drops after leaving the barrel

  13. Any experiences with the WE PDW?

    1. two_zero

      two_zero

      suppose to be decent

  14. About Hobbyking - I've heard a lot of cases where they don't add the UKARA number on the package but they've been delivered. How risky is it? Any misfortunes?

      Yeah I've heard that RIFs coming into the country should have the number on just in case. I'd like to order from there but just not too sure how it'll go if they don't put it there

    3. Sacarathe

      Sacarathe

      Actually, rather than "just in case", its a requirement, at least, if that is your only way of proving a defence, but, it's supposedly only a 'requirement' insofar as maintaining expediency.

       

      Customs should, if seizing the package, contact you requesting the same information.

      I tried to buy of them recently, they wouldn't ship a black WE makarov to the UK, but would ship the silver one. Ridiculous

      probably another setting in bios - usb compatibility mode

      Legacy support enable but a bitch to enter bios to change if usb keyboard not recognised like you say

      Years ago the pc funny was:

      turn on pc with no keyboard attached and it halts saying:

      KEYBOARD ERROR

      press F1 to resume

      WTF - how the f*ck do I press an imaginary F1 key ffs

      Ah, PCs and laptops have never been straight forward for me :) Always a problem... Just really hope this PS/2 adapter works. Wish there was another way to access the bios! Or change the boot order via command prompt...

  16. Waiting on my HPA drum mag for my Vector! Can't wait to test it out

  17. Any Eotech 55 series sights up for sale?

      Thanks Trig. Just sold it about 30 minutes ago

  18. Do you need UKARA to import a complete airsoft M4 body from HK? A mate of mine has just asked me and I have no idea to be honest, so looking for an answer here

    1. Show previous comments  3 more
    2. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      I'd say no in parts - ie gearbox out of receiver....

      Possible questions if complete fitted with pistol grip. Some HK will sell ya guns shipped in two pieces a week apart but dunno the success rate of getting through ok without raising suspicion or duty

    3. Lozart

      Lozart

      You only need UKARA if you're importing a whole RIF. Granted people at customs might get a bit shirty of you get two packages from the same place with half a gun in each but if it's just the body kit then you should be fine.

    4. MILITATED

      MILITATED

      Yeah he just wants the body of it. It does have the pistol grip and gearbox inside though. All it needs to be full are barrels, handguard, stock and a battery to be honest

  19. Would a 5KU Fighting Cat style front end fit a G&G TR4? A friend is thinking of getting one. The 5KU kit says TM compatible, so would it be compatible with G&G? I know G&Ps have different outer barrels and stuff which is why I ask

    1. MILITATED

      MILITATED

      Just in case TM have any different parts like the outer barrel which aren't compatible with G&G

  20. Can anyone tell me if this black bit can be removed from a gearbox without causing any problems, and what is it? The bit in the red circle. Only thing preventing the gearbox from going into my gun. http://imgur.com/R2MtZA6

      it's a part for the fake bolt hold open, it's connected to the bolt release on the receiver.

       

      What box are you fitting into what receiver?

    3. MILITATED

      MILITATED

      The idea was to fit a specna arms box into a King Arms BW15 receiver. Had to file those protruding bits that held the fake bolt thing for it to fit, but the specna shell doesn't have the protruding bit on the top for the charging handle to latch on to. Eventually ended up mixing the specna and king arms gearbox internals together inside the king arms shell. Turned out to be a pain but it is all in. Just wish I could test it, but I don't have a mini tamiya battery! (They're all...

  21. How on earth do you separate deans connectors?

      there is even a seperator thingy majig to assist in seperating them for slippery fingered limp wristed users I guess. Yes grip deans are best

      but pay the extra and grip ones are fine - especially out in cold with gloves on etc...

  22. Just received a 16mm to 14mm thread adapter and it doesn't fit my 16mm or 14mm threads! What a load of shite

      Messaged him about it and the response was "China tolerances no good"... Anyway, he said he send the payment back regardless

    3. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      if you get half of it back and bin it - it is still better than having to post it back for full refund.

      Think they know that - any partial or full refund is a touch on small poxy bits like that. the fun of global shopping

    4. MILITATED

      MILITATED

      Ah the adapter came from 'Matrix CNC' from the UK on eBay - just a heads up in case you ever come across them. As I said, got the Hephaestus one on which allowed me to put my ridiculously long suppressor on there :D funnily enough, it is marked .45 ACP (written CAP on the suppressor...) which matches the Vector :) just need some reliable iron sights or/and an optic for it now

  23. Anyone know of a 8.4v NiMH battery that can fit a standard M4 buffer tube and is fairly inexpensive?

      8.4v nimah's go in AK dust cover or hammered in a mp5k, some are bloody tight fit in Galaxy mp5k.

    3. Sitting Duck

      Forget hpa tank on ya back. Ibjust strap a car battery on my back instead and hose away until gun breaks (15 mins usually)

    4. MILITATED

      MILITATED

      LOL well I just need to put it in a SOCOM stock for the M4 :) Gotta test the gun. Think the battery I saw was 10cm in length, 2cm wide and 1.3cm high, which will fit :)

  24. Silicone oil spray or just silicone oil in a bottle?

    1. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      oil in a bottle would probably work out cheaper....

      just a smidge on a rag wiped over any areas makes it slippery like oil on black ice.

      if used on barrel use very very very little squeezed out almost dry and keep well away from bucking. awsome to polish cylindersoak o-ring etc... - just no good on buckings

    2. MILITATED

      Great :) the gun is definitely overdue for some maintainence!

  25. After seeing a Facebook page get happy over a 70mph Nerf gun, I decided to convert my fps into mph, turned out to be around 240mph! Didn't expect that

      Never really thought of it in MPH, but that is bloody fast
