Has anyone here bitten the bullet for one of these then?

With food and drink, a lot of items are made in the same factory with either identical ingredients or very slight changes. Like M&S and Copella apple juice is exactly the same, but tesco might be in the same factory, but will have more 1% more sugar. Petrol is another good example. I would imagine there's not many factories producing airsoft green gas, so I would wager it's the same base product with maybe a minor amount of silicon difference.

I know, how dare they time their drops weekly so everyone is waiting.

Shirley it would make more sense to get the work experience to spend an hour breaking and bagging, and selling as spare parts?

Took a punt on an Amazon WML wasdn/wasdn copy, along with some cheap rail mounts. Turned out alright.

How was it, looking for new sites to play as getting a bit bored of my current.

Ah you slag - i think you got the one i was after, and the seller just stopped replying

my 2p worth: Getting an MWS is like getting a Macbook. It's easy to know what you are getting and you don't need to fiddle with it. If something breaks, changing bits out for apple bits is best, as some other 3rd party bits aren't always as good (but some are better than others) VFC is like a PC - a bit more going on but if you're into swapping bits out and finding out what gels together well. If you crack the combination, you're onto a winner as there is more choice out there without having to pay a small fortune for the equivalent MWS/Apple part (like a 416 body for example).

You can also get a delta gas block (when in stock) https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/tokyo-marui-416-gas-block-part-416203 But it's not an uncommon mod

I think I found the ad - that’s twice now that’s happened. I check the classifieds daily and the two days I don’t do it, something pops up. I’ll have it after you 😁

Where you find one of those?

Just...yeah, no https://prefired.co.uk/ads/misc-box/

I swear airsoft skirmish's are 10% tactics and 90% who's gun works better on the day

These guys using it would probably will know better than me, but i though the suppressed issue was a thing of 20 years ago, when ammo and rifles were basically bulk buy from the lowest bidder and caused cycle failures and the like. But now with better ammo and more interchangeable parts and tuning, you can go back to DI systems as they are (reportedly) more accurate suppressed? Hence why some teams are moving away from the 416 and to Noveskes. Also allows for more of a tool kit as there are a gazillion spare parts.

Getting back to silly ads.... Each character in the description is worth £15 https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/23097-silverback-sniper-heavily-upgr

I mean it's close, but more like £400 close, not £1200

Apparently the DE version was mostly snapped up by the staff in TaiwanGun, so make of that what you will. As mentioned above, the Cyma version is basically proprietary as the t8 system is a MWS copy, but not a direct copy, so the DE seems to be the winner

As it's a first gen VFC, I might wait until they work out the bugs in it, or it gets reversed engineered parts.

7x L85/L86 highly accurate replicas...and a 2 tone.

Managed to find one on discord - about 2 weeks after i missed one on discord as well. I've given up on ever finding a p90 though - they're going for about £600 2nd hand in Japan if you can find one. If they did a re-run or a mark 2, they would sell out instantly i reckon.

Refresh my memory - is the 200rnd hard case "mag" actually just a giant green gas source that you fill normally?

Out of shot, the landyard is connected to £200

So I bought something super Gucci - Crye AVS in Coyote And something not so Gucci…
