Was Skirmish at Wycombe the small one where a good sniper rifle could ping one side of the map to the other - or was that the Tring site?

Wonder if the DE MWS would fit it, rather than have to have a full fat TM.

I actually found Wolf fairly well priced. I've been "going" there almost 20 years - and every time the staff have been useful

"Take cover behind the tank" "Ackshullay, it's not a tank, it's a self propelled artillery - a tank has" *gets shot*

IMO safety trumps disability. You can be accommodating as possible but sometimes places have to say no. Im 17.5 stone, and too heavy to do skydiving. But I’m not going to kick up a fuss and then go splat into a puddle. If you’ve got no arms, you can’t race in F1 as you can’t get out the car if it catches on fire. Similarly, if this person was having an episode or not able to control what they were doing (widespread generalisation) that put other players at risk - if that’s game rules like ignoring MEDs or more real life and getting physical with other players - then for the safety of other people then they should be banned. Playing the disabled card could just be a dick mood. Same way Tyson Fury and Joe Marler always act like dicks then go “muh mental health”

Viper VX sling for about £15. Good balance of cheap enough, but functional (slingster clone) and made well enough not worrying if the clips will fall off every time the day ends in Y

One thing i've learnt with snipers (in general) is that the size of a meter differs depending if they're working out the MED or if they're trying to sell it

There;s RIFTS annual event coming up in Abingdon in Oxfordshire - which is commutable

I can smell this comment

Indeed. Visiting repmart and echigoya next week to grab half a dozen akx mags (for anticipation of actually getting an AK at a later date) Osaka has more shops IMO with a wider variety. Tokyo has a lot of your “standard” stuff albeit everything you ever need from bushings to barrels. Osaka has some really cool shops like SFBC and Gurkha which has loads of 2nd hand lovely stuff at such good prices, and brand new things that are only just on the street. what surprises me is how common it is. Like hobby shops that carry RC cars and model boats will carry a pretty decent TM and WA range

Annual holiday to Japan, popped into First in Osaka. picked up some TBB’s for the Mp5’s and a 416 for half the UK RRP. Also grabbed a couple of mags for the GGO Am45 before they go out of print fully. Then at the checkout, spotted a couple of these bargain bin for the eye watering price of… £40 for an upper and lower. Got a Colt and a Stoner lower set.

General rule of thumb - anything Novi branded is just repackaged direct from a chinese factory with a premium for his label on the box. Same as most "genuine" car parts.

That front sight post

I would agree. Also back of napkin maths, i would say the RIFs only come to a generous £1,500. Lets be more generous and put all the other stuff down for £1,000. That's only £2,500 so still coming up short on the total.
