What a day!
Been job hunting, Did a second interview last week, All went well.
Called this morning told I didn't get it.
Then called by another recruiter for a second interview at another company tomorrow. Sorted that out.
Then I got a call back about the job I didn't get... I did get it if I want it. There was a communication error.
I then have to cancel the other interview, Fly across town in rush hour to drop off paperwork for the new job so they can make the offer...
Monday morning, I'll be doing 9-5 as a maintenance engineer in a bacon slicing factory! I can see the company bonuses not been healthy for me!- Show previous comments 7 more

@Albiscuit did you know that the name ‘vegetarian’ is actually an old Northern Europe word ?
Roughly translates as ‘shit at hunting’ !

Just a touch hot then lol! 1.5J!! that's what almost 400fps on a 0.2. 309 is almost a perfect cut. Polarity been wrong on the wires is something I wasn't expecting! Was that on the motor or the connector? It just shows poor QC. It's basic things like this that china guns constantly get wrong and it's a shame because the product is essentially right. Body looks perfect. So it came with the 3 position selector rather than the standard one. That's good for you, would have been nice if CA had managed to get hold of them as well for @FreeFrag.UK But he spent twice as much and pretty much only got a mosfet and a fancy plate on the gearbox divide, so I still stand by the JG/APS budget guns been the correct path into the AUG. You still got the QC gearbox, Wasn't expecting that. Does it have bearings as well then?

lol, nope. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M16_rifle

Always thought A2 and A3 were physically identical. The only difference was burst fire on A2 to full auto on the A3. Because the A3 uses the A1 trigger setup. It's the A4 where the rail appears.
-
Nice M16A3, I keep looking at A1's but it's going to be some time before I get one. I have a few too many unused guns as it is!

You'll have to give me a couple of days to get pictures together but yeah no problem.

You got exactly the right gun for the look you want. The JG would of done the job visually as well, but I think you made the right choice overall with the CA. Same deal applies, any issues or you want advice just start up a thread and you can have what I know. I think you will find it a trouble free gun, and very comfortable. One thing you might want is the modification to the safe bar for a single shot only position. It's a small mod that will add a 3rd position. Safe, Semi only, Semi + full auto. Some sites will want to see some trigger control before they let you use it in semi only games without the mod. Having the mod done means it's impossible to go full auto in those games. And it costs nothing to make the modification. Just a couple of files and a sharp knife to remove a cube of plastic.

@Druid799 Well done I know you like to run a gun without upgrades, but If you ever want advice on what to upgrade in it just tag me Fire support have the king arms 110rnd mid cap boxes in stock. I think they work out at about £7.50 each. Are you getting it Fetted at GFC, They install them for free when you buy a gun and fet together and add the relevant service option. I'm also loving the fact it's a hybrid. A1 para upper but with the commando lower rail. I'm expecting you to do a full review when you've had it a few weeks! Shapeways do a conversion for that style of lower rail to reduce the rail length. It replaces the long rail with a more lightweight 3 slot design. https://www.shapeways.com/product/LU48DGXN6/aug-bottom-picatinny-rail-3-slots?optionId=65356676&li=marketplace

£10-15 is about right, You can get them new for £30-40. Ukara is needed for that model, it is a rif, and not a two tone. Even tho it's a 240fps springer. Looks to be missing a flash hider. And the Foregrip is held on with some tape (it may just not be on correctly as the tab is showing). -
@AK47frizzle I don't like to say I told you so... but There good scopes, Absolutely excellent for the money. You made a good choice. And with it been 2-7 rather than 3-9 you should find the range on it suits a lot more rifles than just the sniper.

My new lapping paste arrived
Stuff seems legit. And it's easy to clean up been water based.
Been rodding a barrel all evening and the thing is gleaming internally!-
-
It's an ebay set.
Took about 2 weeks to arrive.
I was lapping a stainless ZCI. It took time but otherwise had no trouble cutting at all.
I'm going to try get some pictures of the inside of it at the weekend, once I get it to a stage where It can be shown off. But for a single evening of just testing them out they have exceeded what I expected.
Far easier to clean than the oil based lapping pastes, Just as well graded, And they become a slurry with a little water. You also don't need a lot for it to cut well. So all in all it's a decent product.

Just seen one today that got a report. Guy selling 3 batteries. 2 look in good shape, but the 7.4v vapex lipo (black) is dangerous. Wires cut short, re-soldered, Heat-shrink not fully covering + on battery exit. Swelling, Knackered heat-shrink insulation on battery, Burn mark on the deans..... There is only 1 place that battery should go... and it's not in a gun.

Some dude put up more pictures of my last shoot! You can see all my gear in this one
-
Went out Saturday, Oh my the G3 is shooting well.
2 confirmed kills at 65m. Both went down to a single aimed shot on 0.3's. Felt like a sniper.
-
One from my last game! @ the Grange Coventry. Flecktarn + G3 with Hensoldt Model 1.
-
It's an LCT G3 in olive. With a wood kit from Zib militaria, Real sling, Real rear sight drum. The optic is a Hensoldt model 1 on a stanag claw mount again real steel. You can get the base gun for £329 from fire support. It's an all steel gun, so very heavy. https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/lct-lc-3a3-s-g3a3-green-od-aeg-airsoft-gun I did a review for it, and it highlights some of the flaws of the gun.
-
Spent a few hours on the air rifle range this evening with the G3. Scope is set, Was happily plinking logs and the bigger targets on that range... All the PCP airgunners looking at me like an idiot for having a gun that made them have kittens. I may have walked past them all with the gun in a bag, dropped the mags on the table, thrown in a mid cap quick, and slapped the cocking lever. Before leaving it on the table for a minute or two.... Mostly people were just looking down the table expecting all hell to break loose any second.
I then shot it, and they realised it was airsoft lol.
Gun is shooing past the 65 meter mark and well into the 70's. Just needs a few K's bb's passing through it to get the rubber where I want it. Not a single misfeed.
And I may of put a deposit on a PCP air rifle. -
