What a prick. "You have nice things, therefore i deserve your money"?

If my wife asks, about £20, and i won a lot of raffles

https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/tokyo-marui-m4-mws-gbbr-airsoft-gun-with-3-extra-mws-35-rnd-magazines Not a bad price, I must say

I always put Toxicant in the same realm as DE, as in TM adjacent. But DE is half the price, and Toxicant more than double

Oooffff..... "VFC vs TM AKM/AKX" and "VFC AKM after market rails fit" will be high on my google search i feel

Airsoft is 10% tactics, 10% out ranging someone, and 80% drip. The TM Sig will be just fine for 99% of what most people will use it for.

So I've got the hankering for a SBR/Honey Badger style build - I've already got one with a PDW style stock. I can't find a nice style rail though, the closest I've seen is a Nuprol one (out of production) or a Dytac SLR 6.75". Any other recommendations?

Most sites I've played at have banned it, purely because if you're up a tree and get tagged by a volley of fire - you put your hand up and flinch which can easily put you off balance. Worse case: The next thing you know you're eating out of a tube for the rest of life because you wanted to shoot someone a bit better with a toy gun.

I might just be special, but I've manged to squeeze a nunchuck 7.2 lipo (with mini tamiya) into a WiiTech repro handguard. It's tricky but doable - but yes, i admit it would be better with a direct to MR30. I run the cables above the barrel, and the battery at 4 and 8 o'clock. Long Mlok at 6 o'clock with a vert grip and small light.

Cheapo trick - find an old AOL CD (yes, it must be AOL) and tie it with a bit of string to dangle off something close to the pond, the moving reflections will scare animals off.

As with all VFC GBB's you need to skip the first couple of batches to allow them to work out the kinks, or someone to come up with a hack. But apparently, full steel and full travel. So if it works, I can see it dethroning the TM AK as the go to.

TM MP5A4 for £440 in airsoft direct... very very tempting but i kinda need to use the a5 and sd6 that have both been sat since i got them

Off topic: There's a house on right move thats around the £5m mark in the Cotswolds (which i view every Tuesday and Friday, which are the same days as the euromillions, but by no way is that related). You would think for something that expensive you would get a professional in, who can dress the house. No, ok, a decent consumer camera and a tripod?No, how about at least holding your phone level to take some pictures specifically for the listing? Ok, you're going with whatever you have on your phone at the time. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/135627299#/?channel=RES_BUY

Last one from me today as I actually need to go do some work rather than dicking around on the internet. Not the price (as its for trades) but more the title of High Spec MWS https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/gas-powered_1/hi-spec-mws-to-trade_i54129 The high spec consists on an NPAS, hop rubber and a charging handle...

CYMA full stocks fit like a glove iirc

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/spring-powered_2/tm-m40a5-bolt-action_i54127 About the same price rrp, and about 2.5 times as much as it should be used

Magpul stock users rejoice

I've always compared airsoft R&D to cars. People always say "I would love a v8, with a manual gear box, RWD and being built by a British manufacturer." Then a company goes out and drops millions on R&D and makes one, and sells a grand total of 17. Meanwhile all the people who said they wanted one goes out and buys a VW Golf. Everyone says they want a tavor, or a some weird 80's gun used by JCVD in a movie that was only shown on Air Canada flights. But when DE released the Noveske which is another m4 in a fancy frock- people climbed over themselves to get one.

Possibly used a "non airsoft" mini tamiya battery with the traditional positive/negative wiring (why the frick airsoft has reverse polarity mini tamiya is beyond me) He would need to go to the shop he bought it off, they would need to go to the distributor who will need to go back to TM, once its been inspected, at his cost. Possibly the distributor will keep it as a spare part gun for anything else that goes funky on another gun out the box but its down to them. Based on your description, unless he bought the battery with the gun, it is unlikely to be a warranty claim. I say this as my mp5 cooked itself out the box, but i bought 2 batteries with the gun and used those one specifically with the gun to inspect it, so it could be a friday afternoon lemon. Had to fight with the retailer for about a week to get a replacement. Could he buy a second hand one to use or salvage, and keep the broken one until an aftermarket fet is available or a work around is created.

Competition helps. VFC, GHK and WE were pretty much the only GBBR's in modern form for a good while. They could dictate what was good enough to get by. Then TM comes along and plants it's flag in the ground, and became the yard stick. Other companies seeing what happened with the release of the VSR10 and Hi capa (i.e. pretty much making every other design in that product space obsolete overnight) have to step up. VFC come out with the mk3 versions of GBBRs as well as the m249 and vector, and know that they can't do their usual thing of let things slide for a few production batches and fix it later. GHK come out with a new glock but also shit the bed on the ARs. WE are doing things, not all great, but still things. Meanwhile TM are happy to make a basic but effective GBBR and re-release it in a different colour every 9 months and print money in the process, knowing that the aftermarket parts cover for any minor flaws they have.

If its easy date points (probably not the best choice of wording) around Tokyo https://www.timeout.com/tokyo/attractions/yomiuri-land-jewellumination

I think there is a market now for more "upmarket" guns - look at the tm mk46, the GBLS, Silverback HTI's, VFC m249 and so on. It just needs a company to bite the bullet and make something with a thin margin, or eye watering price tag. I suppose it's like when people say "I want a 2 seater, v6, manual, RWD, British made car". Then someone decides to, spunks millions in manufacturing. And then sells about 14 of them, whilst everyone who piped up goes and buys a Golf.

Hope it doesn't suck balls, and is under 4 figures - which i doubt as the 2013 models were super expensive.

If it isn't satire - i would rather shit in both my hands, and then clap.
