Is a shame the guy’s got financial problems and is having to sell his kit for this reason BUT why should the uk Airsoft community be his ‘crowd fund’er’ ? 2nd hand is 2nd hand no matter the ‘sob story’ so its most definitely a case of “jog on sunshine” !🤦♂️

I think you’ve totally missed my meaning/point bud , I WAS saying it should be open to everyone BUT if you’ve got any physical problem that can affect your mobility then your instantly at a disadvantage due to the ground conditions at most if not all airsoft sites and your more than likely to get left behind as the game moves around the site . Quick example I play mainly at black ops Cribbs and Portishead near Bristol both sites you are not going to be able to use 70-75% of these sites due to the terrain , and I can confirm this from personal experience , after having recurring knee problems following a motorbike accident that was only solved after surgery , I re-injured it tried playing but just physically could move around most of the site due to the terrain. This is the point I’m making nothing more and nothing else . 👍

As noble as the idea is (and it is , I’d love everyone who wants to have a go to be able too) even if manufacturers did start releasing equipment for the disabled to take part by the very nature of the sport it isn’t really that disability friendly when you think about it . Outdoor/woodland ; you’ve got structures/obstacles /uneven ground/dense undergrowth/low hanging bushes&trees and multiple terrain variations in a relatively small area . CQB ; Most are in disused industrial sites on multiple levels which have lots of hazards to anyone with even minimal movement , spatial awareness or disability problems . Plus you’ve got the game play it’s self , which from experience I find at outdoor games is quite mobile around the site so unless the player is happy with more of a ‘static’ role in the game then there’s a good chance you could feel ‘left behind’. CQB even if the site is physical disability friendly (like Strikeforce in Gloucester for example , one huge single level area) it’s still an incredibly fast paced game and unless you can move quickly then again you will miss out on the action due to it being so ‘fluid’ around the venue , plus with both types of sites you’ve more than likely going to have problems just getting to the site before you’ve even started the warm up game ! Whilst the strikeforce gamezone is disability friendly to access it you still need to be able to walk up a fire escape stairwell as its on the first floor , and i can’t remember ever going to a woodland site that had a proper car park with hard standing and metalled walkways to the safezone .

I’ve got a shit load of Scandinavian knives , everything from a 1&1/2inch frost carving knife right up to a monstrous Scrama from Varusteleka and many in between (even a good few I’ve made my self) there just excellent daily work knives . Always wanted a Ka-bar but couldn’t justify the price for a genuine one then found one couple of quid short of half price AND I was all over it like a tramp on a dropped kebab ! 😍 Yuk fecking yuk ! 🤦♂️ Smart arse ! 🤣🤣🤣 -

Good thinking Batman ! I’ve seen a couple at my two home sites and to be honest when you see a guy wearing a full gillie suit and carrying one of these has to be said he looks like a bit of a tool ! 🤣 but yea I like your idea would be perfect to strap on your back for those “ if only I had my sniper with me !” Shots .👍 -

These look to me as if they should be owned by a poacher or some well dodgy mafia hitman ! 😱 Really is a marmite gun BUT as long as your happy bud that’s all that matters .👍 As we all know “opinions are like arse holes , everyone has one and quite frankly I’m not interested in most !” 😂😂😂😂 -

Had a sale notification from TG the other wk with an absolute (well I think so any way) bargain on a Well Gas AK74 that I just couldn’t pass on , so here it is with 4 additional mags as well ! Plus I picked up some pouches in there take on partisan camo just to help enhance the eastern block vibe . -
Oh man ! I’m loving these paint jobs yet again ! Especially the M4 looks like a striking snake on the end of the barrel ! 👍👍

Old post but question answered, kydex shroud covering the catch and as I wasn’t getting on with mesh and was a bit dubious of the clear lenses quality I’ve replaced it with an iridium motorbike visor .👍 -

Been to one of these a couple of yrs ago , to say it was a hoot would be an understatement ! Rule was nothing over 260fps and not allowed to cost more than £25 ! Talk about Airsoft at its most simple and fun .😂😂😂

Don’t know what’s the funniest thing about it , the gun it’s self (can you imagine the embarrassment of getting shot by this in a game ? 😂😂😂) or the chunky monkey himself trying to bigit up !😳 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
