Sorry my boneheaded error completely forgot about the gearbox screws as only buffers I've got now are TM recoils and gas ! ?♂️ -

BUT playing devils advocate the hot guns ? that’s the fault of the retailer who sold the guns to them in the first place not the players for lack of technical knowledge , really pisses me off the way British airsoft retailers are STILL sell guns you can’t use because there too hot or charge you to make it legal to use . You don’t go in to PC world to buy a new TV and expect to find an American plug on it , to then be told by the shop “oh thats not ours problem we just sell them , if you want to watch it you need to change the plug your self or we’ll do it for you and charge you 30quid !” Would you ? Plus the minute you do crack it to change the spring your warranty is gone and the very same retailer who sold you a gun you had to alter your self to use will turn around and say “the gun stopped working ? Nope we won’t do anything about it you opened it up so you voided the warranty !” The hop rubber again if it’s a new gun retailer should have tested it first before selling it . I’ve never had to change a hop rubber because it was faulty only time I’ve changed them is for a better one or it’s a 2nd hand gun and previous owner been ‘fiddling’ and bollox’ed it up . Buffer tube ? Just sounds like a spoilt bastard ! ? PS you don’t use as screwdriver to tighten a buffer tube .? -

My point exactly my good friend , I’ve only ever heard good things about them and everyone I know who has one gets a semi boner every time they speak of them BUT I still think there a big fat lump of smegma from the devils foreskin ! I just hate them simple as that .? -

That’s the funny thing about personal choice , it’s your own choice ? everyone raves about EVO’s , me personally I wouldn’t piss on one if it was on fire absolutely detest the things . I’ve never owned one , never fired one matter of fact I’ve never even handle one but I still detest them . Simple personal choice , same as on a long gun M16/G3 I think a three point is the perfect sling to use . ? -

Set of surplus ESS V12 goggles for not a lot of beer tokens off a chap selling army kit on the mong , considering they are surplus and well under the price of new ones there condition could easily be listed as super grade if not ‘as new’ if bought from a retailer . -

From the point of view of someone wouldn’t know his arse from his elbow when it comes to 3D printers is there that much of a difference in the quality of the print between the entry level ones and the lower mid range ones ? Reason I ask is I’ve bought a few different bits’n’bobs over the years and some the quality was absolutely shocking ! 2’ish yrs ago A friend bought a hexagon suppressor from a well known seller and when it arrived it had thick ridges on the layers and just nasty looking but then other stuff you could barely tell the difference in them from say a moulded piece . -
This should be framed and mounted on the wall of every airsoft site in the country. if all played like this I’d be the original pig in shit ! ??

Once you get your head around how it works the real MP5 slings are really nice to use , ive got one on my A5 .?
-
Think most of my guns I run with some kind of optic except my really ‘old school’ AK’s/L1A1/MP5 but to be honest unless I’m taking a VERY carful aimed shot near all my shots are take either with my irons or by instinct ! ?♂️
-
I was thinking with this bit of a resurgence in ‘old school’ carrying handles and plastic forends you can’t help but wonder how long it’ll be before you start to see the classic ‘SWAT’ AR’s reappearing on the scene ? Not that I’d object as it is my all time favorite set up for an M4 .

Freely admit I really REALLY don’t like ‘modernised’ SLR/FAL 7.62 type guns but must say that does look sweet as a nut ! Very nicely done bud ?

Nope stock pictures don’t count unless there’s pictures of the kit in your sweaty little mitts ? NEVER happened ! ? -
Totally off topic (but hay this is AFUK after all ! ?♂️) no needles involved , they use lidocaine drops in your eyes to numb them . ?

If you can definitely sculpt the teeth , actual what ever’s always looks so much better than just ‘painted on’ ?

AND he left out the bit where he should have said there’s that many things wrong with it it’ll be delivered in a metal bucket full of bits ! ?♂️ Oh and he thinks it may have Covid as well .?
-
Yes I think he’s a foreign chap as I asked him how many guns he was selling and he came back with a rather bemused “only one ? “ reply ! ??
-
notice it’s magpul ‘STYLE’ down grip, 551 ‘STYLE’ sight and a magpul pts ‘TRADEMARK’ stock. All suggesting but not actually saying genuine ?
-
In a word ? NO .?

I’ll give him his dews he’s persistent, it’s back up again ! ?

Exactly AND it was us who came with the idea to help get the sites back up to scratch as in the end it would benefit us the most if the sites where back to full playability and not all over grown so we could only use the main tracks on them . Yea couple of carpenters an arborist and the manager of a tool hire place even offered free equipment to use ! You know what mate you are right we were bloody naive to think he’d not stitches us up ! Lesson learned .

Again all valid points that you could sort of understand with a simple explanation but not this way , pre pandemic on a couple of occasions he actually thanked the airsofters at the end of a gameday for still turning up in large numbers wk in wk out during the ‘lean’ winter mths when all the other activities where dropping off due to crap weather . But for me the real stab in the back is that just over a wk ago a large group of these ‘annoying’ airsofters spent a day at one of his other sites (and we were planning the same at the others as well) clearing all the overgrowth back and repairing the structures and barricades that had fallen in to disrepair due to the lockdown for him for free as we wanted to help him out as we knew money was tight ! So me personally I wont be forgiving or forgetting what happened on Sunday for a long time if ever .
