Hi, Am considering selling my Bushnell HOLOsight; it uses 2 x AA batteries and functions just like an EOtech HOLOsight - but without the NV capability - and lacks the outer shroud. This sight functions brilliantly, is undamaged and fits perfectly onto RIS uppers. I have used it on a Breacher, M16, Galil... Would like a good ball-park valuation please. Thanks.

I got some good 0.28g bottles on eBay for about a fiver.

Heinnie Haynes have Tan/Black Hazard 4 polos in their Clearance Section from £19. Land Warrior have just listed a ton of new Nuprol goodies in their New Items section.

Where and when per chance please?!

Action Hobbies have a great sale on atm. Bought some Begadi EDC trousers in OD for £22. They have Begadi micro-fibre trousers for £11 and the matching jacket for about (possibly cheaper than) £27 IIRC. I have bought twice from these guys now and have found them to be superb.

My old man is giving up on airsoft due to lack of time. He has a variety of airsoft guns he wants to sell, and I'll be doing this for him. I will get pictures, so I am sorry for the lack of them in the post. I have tried to be as detailed as possible to help with valuations. Due to having a newborn in the house, I just have not had time to take and post pictures, but I have pics of the pistols and FAL if required. AEGs: CYMA Thompson - good condition, works well and has 2 magazines. Has the wooden furniture fitted but also has the faux wood plastic furniture. CYMA 'Chicago Typewriter' style Thompson - fluted barrel, fore grip and 1 drum mag. In very good condition. Shoots well, but a little hot at 360fps. Barely used. King Arms FN FAL (long) - missing the fire selector lever, paint worn in places and fires better with a quality bb brand like Excels. Seemed to double fire on full auto with cheap brands before Steve from a well known Portsmouth based shop/site had a tinker. 3 locals and 2 hi caps. RIS upper and non-RIS upper included. ACM MP40 - fires well, good condition, 3 magazines. ACM Sten gun - fires well, battery wires threaded out of the gun to allow use of a bigger battery in a stock mounted pouch. Good condition. 3 magazines. CA M249 - bit of a mission this one...set up with a para short barrel and sliding stock, but has the long barrel and solid stock too in the package. Spare gear box. Spare pistol grip. Fires really well when box mag is working. Modified to have battery in the box mag and for mag to wind when gun firing. Catch to hold magazines in has broken and been fixed. Basically could do with a brand new box mag. GBBs: Tanaka S&W M500 - fires well, missing the front sight, good condition. Tanaka Luger P.O8- black, long barrel, snail magazine plus 1 normal magazine. In basically un-skirmished, kept in a box condition. Marushin .44 Automag - superb condition. 3 magazines plus silver pistol case and 8mm bbs of various weights. Fires well. ACM Mauser - semi-auto. 2 magazines. Fires well, unsure if GBB or NBB though. Good condition. Cheers.

Plenty of electrolytes, warm clothing and even a change of clothing. Cash. Hat, gloves and scarf in plain colours. If you catch the bug, explore a decent surplus shop and run free!

Being a sniper is, for me, a state of mind, rather than a look or even your equipment. You want to use what'll do the job...and in airsoft, it is usually to take out as many OP-FOR as possible until they get you. Because there is so little difference in range between decent AEGs and most dedicated rifles, compared with real steel, whilst stealth helps, you're usually close enough to be located eventually... Browning M2's with scopes on...to handguns with optics...all have been used by snipers to achieve this aim. I say, do what you plan to do, and most importantly, enjoy it and learn from failures and successes.

Google is your friend...and she did a rather naughty '50 Shades' straight-to-video last year too. She really has aged like a fine wine. Albeit with a little help...

It's an absolute classic. 'Buffy' indeed.

I would always recommend Tokyo Marui to anyone buying their first RIFs. I have TM Gas pistols going strong after 20+ years (a NBB Desert Eagle) and their GBBs are top quality and seem to work well in pretty much all weathers. As for an AEG, it really is horses-for-courses, but again, TM will almost certainly not let you down.

Charisma Carpenter - subject of one of the most unexpected, but much appreciated, Playboy issues ever...

My loadout at R. I. F. T. Airsoft's The Defilade on Sunday: TM Beretta M92F in Safariland 6004. TM Uzi with Magpul sling. TAD Ranger hoodie. TAD Force 10 cargos. TAD Watch cap. TAD Shermagh. Mechanix gloves. Bulle MLE vest + various pouches. ACM Multicam hydration pack plus TAD SOLAS patch. Alta knee-pads. Merrell All Out Blaze Mid boots.

I was there yesterday, was very muddy, but overall a good site.

Chailey site? Were you there yesterday at all? May be there, either there or one of Ace, Dog Tag or Battle Lakes.

Krytac have had excellent reviews in AI and AA - don't get me wrong, I'm not not-rating them - but for me, I'd go for Marui if I wanted an AR-type. I don't give a monkey's about recoil. I want a consistently reliable shooter out of the box. The Marui magic is still strong.

I know if I had £500-600 I'd go for a new Marui... Horses for courses though.

The motor has is unique to that model - very long shaft. I may have sourced some spares...

Nice warm hat - Olive or tan beanies work well. Shemagh for neck/face protection. Cheap set of BDUs. You could probably get the whole lot on eBay for £15.

Sadly not, but I am assured it is in excellent condition, which was good enough for me.

Flyye Go-Bag in Khaki - to replace a cheaper ACM one whose zips have gone kaput. £26 from eBay inc. P&P.

Got a MC TAD Gear patch coming across the pond in the post after winning one from them on Twitter.

TAD Gear Overland shirt from eBay. Milspec Monkey MC cap from eBay (same seller). Eyeing up a WE Makarov GBB at Crawley Surplus too...but funds towards an AA12 might have to take priority.
