  1. Hahahaha ! Up their with “don’t come running to me crying when you fall out of that tree and break your leg !” 😳🤣🤣🤣🤣
  2. F**k that’s a ruff one to deal with my friend . off on a tangent(well this is AFUK after all !😁) back in the days of only 3 tv channels my brother thought it was a good idea to screw a brass dart on to the end of the length of bamboo he was using as an arrow and shoot it at me , it just missed my eye and hit me in the eyebrow where it stuck , the reason I realised it had stuck was as I came too laying on the floor all I could see through the scarlet haze of my vision was pink clouds and a bamboo stick standing straight up in the air ! As I sat up the vertical stick became a horizontal stick(which due to its weight made it hurt like fuck !) and my brother giving it legs in to the distance ! SO I made my way home grizzling like a good un slug trails running down my face mingling with blood and snott bubbles appearing from my nostrils(never at the same time always alternating nostrils never did figure out how that happens , just another one of life’s great mysteries I suppose ?) any hoo get home stagger up to the front door knock on it( not an easy task when you’ve a 2ft bamboo sticking out of ya noggin !) mum answers it sees me let’s out a blood curdling scream at the sight of me which wakes my dad up who was sleeping in his chair after a hard days work spoiling squaddies days(he was military police😈) he gets up stretches , burps , farts scratches his arse walks up to me say “ooohh that looks nasty who did it too you ?” As he places his hand on my forehead and yanks it out whilst also saying to my mum “stick a plaster on it he’ll be fine !” I tell him my brother did it . Several hrs later as it’s starting to get dark I see him skulking down the back path to the house so I rush over to dad saying “Garry’s coming in through the the back door !” He gets up and just stands behind the door with the bamboo in his hand , my brother slowly enters the room looking around to see where my dad is and instantly assumes the fetal position on the sofa and my dad proceeded to deliver what I thought was one of the classic beating of the 70’s with the bamboo and me standing next to him going “hit him harder dad , hit him harder !” Years later much to my horror I discovered dad wasn’t actually hitting him but neither me(on my vengeance high) nor my brother(in the grip of abject fear)realised he was actually hitting the sofa not Garry ! Talk about having justice stolen from you ! I tell you I was feeling like Gerard Butler in ‘law abiding citizen’ I felt so wronged by it !🤬
  3. Was told Specna by a rep from Arthurian .👍 Oh A2 all the way ! 😎
  4. I know it’s above that price range but I’ve got an Arthurian airsoft M4 and I think it’s an amazing piece of kit . Specna are the OEM for Arthurian and the guns are ‘pre-upgraded’ in the factory to their own specs(much like the deal Taiwan Gun has with Cyma) and I can’t recommend them enough .
  5. And just in case your still on the hunt for a new gatt I found this for you a bit cheaper . 😉 https://newtechairsoft.co.uk/product/4361/
  6. Possibly the result of being overly confident in what the armour could protect from so take greater risks and end up with worse injuries ? Yup all of the above , I do hate it when someone tries to pigeon hole others but my take is it’s sort of like the whole ‘alpha male/female V beta male/female’ thing , the people who are willing to take risks(no matter how regulated and controlled they may be)seem to generally be drawn more to the pastimes based on individual achievement and not as much on ‘team’ achievements , and as a result more chance of injury than the “I’m not doing that I mite get hurt” type of person who generally stick to structured team pastimes which have a lessened risk of injury. As an example In Airsofting yes your on the blue or red team but there not teams in the traditional sense where everyone has an assigned job to perform these teams are almost more of a faction than a team used purely for group identification purposes , so we can tell ‘our team’ and avoid shooting our own side ‘in the heat of battle’ as it were . So more of an Alpha than a beta because there prepared that if they do fail then it’s a good chance it’s due to their own failings and not really the teams responsibility ?
  7. Heeellllllloooooooo ! A couple of sandwich bags and some gaffa tape would be better made than the shite we used ! 😳 🤣🤣🤣
  8. Fairymuff , freely admit i’m a right tightwad so I always look for the best ‘bang for ya buck’ kit I can find ! 😁 The tactical kit one yea no probs but I very much doubt you’ll get the two European ones before the wknd The shit state the European logistics are in ref getting kit to the uk ?
  9. By the look of it I recon the RIS rail should ‘just’ about be clear of the stock but if not I also think you wouldn’t need to grind much off from the underside of the rail to allow clearance either .
  10. Just to chuck a monkey wrench in the mix , may be cheap as chips but I’ve got three of them in different colors and I think there cracking bits of kit and quality is batting well above the price your paying for them . https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/8fields-tactical-buckle-up-recce-sniper-chest-rig?pv=10185
  11. Now there’s a sentence EVERY SINGLE Airsofter out there will have said at some time or another ? 🤔
  12. Just to build on what the lads have said I had a rather pathetic low speed motorbike crash that resulted in 5mths in a wheelchair, several reconstructive surgeries on my Left foot and ankle full cruciate reconstruction of the right knee and 11mths off work AND the orthopod said the two probable outcomes I was looking at where either 85-90% recovery or sub 20% due to the nature of my injures and as he was leaving my bed side he casually threw out “oh by the way this was a one off fix as well , if ANYTHING happens to your ankle you’ll be loosing the leg below the knee !” And then casually walked off to his next patient ! So for the next year-18mths I was equally apprehensive/scared of the potential effect on my life in general if I did injure it again . So yea this whole thing had a hell of an effect on my Airsofting due to just the worry about potential injuries . All I’d say is listen to what others say but ultimately only you can come up with game plan your happy with , and I promise there IS one out there somewhere.😉👍
  13. Been using them for well over 10yrs+ have had one or two problems in that time with orders but always been sorted to my satisfaction(more than you can say about a lot of UK retailers) so I’m happy to recommend them as well .
  14. I’ll just wait till you buckle and get one and post a review , we all know what your like with ‘shiny shiny’ things ? Tensile strength of a matchmaker left on the dashboard of a car on a summers day springs to mind ! 😉

    I had one for a good few yrs too mate , until my great fat fecking lump of a cousin sat on it and snapped the bloody thing in half ! 🤦‍♂️🤬 was so pissed I bought a G&P kit and put a TM in it ! 🤣🤣🤣
  16. And it’s still not a Hi-Cycle bud .😉
  17. Bloody good film and yes he’s really good as the bereaved father , and particularly liked Pierce Brosnan as ‘not’ Jerry Adams , cough cough 😉
  18. To be fair the way the MoD consistently buy from the lowest bidder and NOT from the best ‘bang for ya buck’ supplier wouldn’t surprise me if they did buy SUSAT’s from some dodgy bloke called Stavros in Macedonia ! 😳
  19. You can’t , simple as that really ? PLUS you must remember only pussies have will power , REAL men give in immediately as there will power has the tensile strength of a wet piece of Tesco value toilet paper ! 😉
