21yrs for me my 1st gun was a 4th or 5th hand TM M16 that the front end wobbled like a leaf in the wind no matter how tight you tried to get it ! 😳 who used to buy their gun from RSOV/Gunner/WGC that used to arrive doing 400+fps all the time pre UKARA ? You’d get that letter from parcel farce saying your parcel from Hong Kong was at your local Depo and you had to go and pick it up from there and you possibly may have got caught and have to pay some charges(they’d usually say something like ‘toy parts with a value of $10 on this honking big box !🤦‍♂️) on it ! 🤬 🤣🤣🤣

I had one from his first run of them as I knew Mike ‘back in the day’ he was a really nice guy , was a loose bunch of us who used to meet up every now and again at places like the ‘Mall’ or UCAP tunnels and just have a bloody good day S’ofting . Happy days .

An old school L119 does just look like the mutts nutt’s to me this is my TM recoil dressed as one , if I do stick a can on it I’m lucky enough to have a ‘Perr Mike’ one from yrs ago .

He said ‘box’ !🥴

Absolutely spot on .👍

Both so much in the wrong , he most definitely should not have assaulted her BUT what did she think was going to happen when she’s stands there pumping all those rounds in to his face and head at zero distance ? ! ? ! Other thing though the post title , “once again American/HPA/Geardo’s ruin it for the rest of us” ? WTF is up with that ? Let’s just blame them for all the sports woe’s shall we ? News flash it’s not just those two groups acting like w*nkers , yes does seem to be a disproportionate amount of shite coming from those two but it’s NOT exclusive is it ?

Man walking down the street sees another man walking towards him with a ladder under his arm . he stops the man and says “excuse me is that your own long ladder ?” And the 2nd man says “yes it’s my long ladder , why do you ask ?” and the 1st man replies with a sad look on his face “when I was a child I didn’t have a long ladder of my own , I only had a step-ladder”

My son recently bought one , haven’t used it in game yet but even just plinking with it in the garden it feel ‘nice’ and I was surprised by the amount of recoil on it ! So even after just having a bit of a play I’m well impressed with it .👍

Once you’ve used one for a gameday you do realise what all the hype is about .👍

Oh you silly silly dreamer ! 🤦‍♂️

Exactly , one of the biggest piss takes I find by British retailers is the way so many of them charge us the customer ex amount extra on top of everything else their charging to stop them the retailer selling a gun that’s unfit for purpose in the UK ! 😳 like seriously WTF ?🤦‍♂️

Haven’t a clue about the parts but I would say make a concerted effort to source them elsewhere as I’m pretty sure buying the parts from DCA your going to get bent over the table pounded from behind and no one will even have the good manners to give you a reach around !😳

Only £500 ! OR £419.99 from Extreme Airsoft ? 🤦‍♂️ https://extremeairsoft.co.uk/product/emg-f1-firearms-udr-demolition-ranch-ar15-aeg-rifle-udr/ Edit 6/6/22 I see the price has now dropped a bit ? 🤔

Not airsoft but I did buy it !😁 serial numbered signature edition ‘Rambo first blood’ knife , it’s the first copy that’s been endorsed by Stallone so it’s also the most screen accurate one to be released so far . All I have to do know is think of an appropriate way to display it safely ?🤔

NO ONE would love a ginger step-child .🤢

Make it three million and ONE !

The hamster is absolutely spot on , it comes down to what you personally like AND what your willing to pay for that something , but never ever buy anything thinking it’s an investment , it won’t be airsoft is just too much of a ‘niche’ sport with too few dedicated players to buy and keep things as investments . I’ve always had the outlook of “if I can afford something and I want it then I’ll buy it , I’ve got an awful lot of guns I’ve bought over the years that I’ve probably only used two or three times if that but I’ve still got them because I wanted it simple as that really . Good example is the pulse rifle I recently bought , first gameday I took it too I used it for one short game put it back in the bag and to be honest unless it’s going to be a ’themed’ game I can’t really see me using it again BUT I’d never get rid of it as I’ve always wanted one .👍

Been to the pox clinic ? Good strong dose of antibiotics should clear that up !😳

Also at these more ‘immersive’ type events be prepared to encounter a greater number of stitch counters and gear snobs than at a ‘normal’ scurmish day . It’s just the nature of the beast , as these events are normally based around a set scenario where you do have to follow a ‘script’ as it where so you will get more of the anally retentive type players their than the ‘run around with an AK and a hi-cap in my trakkies having a whale of a time !’ Players like you get at an open walk in game day .

In a nutshell you’ve highlighted exactly why I did post this up , I know we’ve always had the chancers and out and out scammers (is that you ‘mr’ Glenny ?) in the 2nd hand market place but over the past yr or so I have definitely seen an increase in the numbers of buyers making really ridiculously low offers on items I’ve been selling and then getting all pissy when I’ve said no as if there doing me a favor by buying my what ever ! , I’ve always been of the “if XYZ is in good Knick you start at 30% off new price , I also always do an ’all in price’(hate it when you see a number THEN you have to add paypal fees and P&P on top !🤬)and then work from their , you have a price you’d like and the price you’ll go down too not difficult is it ? AND an increase in the numbers of sellers having over inflated ideas of the value of what ever it is their selling and getting quite worked up when I’ve offered less than they asked even when I’ve given a valid reason for the price I’m willing to go up too . So yea dealing with this chap has really renewed my hopes for the community , but saying that I’m sure the next sale I’m involved with the seller/buyer will try and roger me senseless ! 😳 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

Exactly this really nice guy to deal with over messages and what not .👍 Couldn’t possibly do that far too immature ! 😡 Fact I haven’t cropped his forum name from his advert is purely coincidental !😇 Believe me I am ! 😁
