      black mate, didn't like the tan with the snake effect in blue, tbh not sure if I even like the black with blue snake skin but it seemed the better choice imo.

      yup black - think the 30th is subtle on black but vivid on the tan 30th's: http://www.softair-italia.it/images/bakimages/GC4 G26 30th G&G Tan.JPG

      Even if it was all plain I'd be hard pressed not to still go with the black I reckon.

  2. Sexy as hell. I will definitely use u in the future.
  3. FYI painting is now free on gunfire purchases lads
  4. been a bit slack on here, full steam ahead on the airsoft now though!

  5. I'd suggest trying the kneeling or sitting position even and using those results to gauge if there is any direct coloration. With the prone position are you having your legs straight back or do you have one leg cocked with the knee up closer to your body? This will provide a more stable platform for a rifle. Jedi Master is bang on with his observations. I am glad you pointed out the difference in between this and a real rifle (I am yet to fire an airsoft weapon) because initially I was like, wait, what? lol.
  6. Just watched some vids from Trojan Airsoft Site at Stockport which will probably be my local. Looks good.

      it is a good site, worth a visit. It has certainly improved lepas and bounds over the last 18 months.

  7. PT in a gasmask sucks, PT in a gasmask with full NBC kit on sucks more. But you know what really sucks? When you go into a hut where they have let off cs gas, they ask you a heap of questions about yourself so you have no choice but to suck it in and then you go to put your mask on as per the drill. But your best mate has tightened the straps unbeknownst to you and you can't get the bloody thing on. So you to struggle to get it on and get absolutely smashed. Still not as bad as the kid in our battalion who drove home in the same uniform he got gassed in with the windows down Passed him on the highway and he was doing the f'en chicken dance.
  8. I watched a clip on youtube where a team doesn't clear a side room and piles up in a hall way type area to breach another room. Old mate waits patiently then pings about seven of them. I remember thinking that would be awesome to have a melee weapon. I'd butcher the closest guy with it then shoot the rest of them but I'd use an axe. Guns are for show, knives for a pro but an axe makes a statement
  9. I suggest you shave your legs, thats what recon platoon did in the units I was in. $500 sunglasses and enough gel that it looks like you bungee jumped into a dump truck full of it will also help add to the authenticity of the look. Them and snipers generally got the best of everything though.

      lol not much of a drinker now days mate, hit it too hard when I was younger. Still like a single malt or a pint occasionally but in moderation.

  12. Just out of interest and a noob question, what is the reason why you prefer mid cap to high cap mags? Having never fired a airsoft gun but coming from a background with extensive firearms experience and soldiering I always generally find the more rounds the better. I was a machine gunner in my section for quite a while so I am obviously biased.
  13. I have family down south but my mum is up in Manchester so around there is as good a place to start as any, Having travelled thousands of km though I can say that I am not adverse to moving if I deem it necessary. I don't really remember much of Manchester from when I last visited. I am not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing lol.
  14. NW mate, somewhere around Manchester or Liverpool.
  15. Can I say bang stick instead? hahaha We don't have chavs in Australia, we have bogans which I think are similar. Here are some bogans at their favorite night club (language warning): The bright orange looks as gay as aids, I think I'd rather wrap a black garbage bag around it. The cam jobs on those are not great but I quite like them Sitting Duck, thanks for posting that. I could get one and then go over the stripes in black spray paint for tan/green spray paint for black gun in the future which would break it up a bit moreand provide better cam or as you suggested "use" it to the point that it "wears off." The more I look at it, the more I like the cam job actually. What is the better rifle in your opinions out of the G and G Vs the CM16? What is considered the better brand? Things I am considering is high mag capacity preferable (own choice) something I don't have to muck around with too much initially ie is the desired/around the desired velocity out of the box etc. Something I can modify easily if necessary later A rifle that is fairly accurate and highly durable- the more durable out of the two. Initial pistol will be just a cheap/nasty one, not really bothered on the performance of it. It will just be a throw in the cupboard for a backup/mates gun when one of them is in town. I will probably just have it for easy access on me to muck around with in cqb.
  16. I have just put up a new post asking about the availability of two tone guns in green, feel free to join in the discussion here:

  17. Hi all, I had a good look on the site and saw several posts about two tone gats that were helpful BUT not exactly answering the question I have. I have booked my flight to the UK and will be getting there early Feb. I want to get into airsoft pretty quickly but don't want to wait 2 months to get a defence to get a gat of my own. So I have decided to invest in a two tone rifle and pistol as soon as I touch down. It will also give me a chance to see how they tick, think of some things to do to them and possibly add accessories although I don't envisage that these will be the weapons I end up using all the time in the future. Rather, I think I will have these as back up weapons or when my mates come visit they can have a crack as Airsoft is not big back home. Anyway, that is the background. My dilemma is most of the two tones are in blue and red which to me are not my favorite options. And in my opinion clear makes the gun look like a pez dispenser. I understand the reasoning behind the legislation and the subsequent choices in color however I have also seen some green gats which in my opinion look a lot better. They also make camming up in the future easier in some ways. I have noticed that airsoft zone has some green options: http://airsoftzone.co.uk/starter-packs I am thinking about one of these weapons, probably the one with the biggest magazine capacity because then I can just cut sick. Probably not the best for CQB but I will have a dedicated CQB platform in the future as I see myself playing more CQB than outside. This will then slot into a nice outdoor platform when the need arises. Is anyone aware of any other green options? I noticed the sites seem to have a this gun is red or this gun is blue attitude as opposed to pick your color- green, red, blue, purple kind of choice. I have seen some pistols in green so I don't think I need any help there but if others know of green rifles that can be purchased without a defense please let me know. What I will probably do in the future with this rifle is lay it down, blue tack some fern leaves over the top of it and then hit it with a can of black spray paint, I have seen this effect done before on rl rifles and it comes up nicely.
  18. I have a big family and someone is always fighting with someone else so we can't have a family reunion ever. I get along with everyone, some more than others. Will miss them when I move away but no one lives in my state anyway, facebook is a great tool to communicate with I find. Although I normally deactivate my account at least one month a year because it does my head in.
  19. Yeah I will probably give pistol shooting a miss in the UK which sucks a bit because it was my favorite discipline and what I was best at. I had some pretty gnarly pistol set ups and was shooting a lot, won some comps etc. I will look at trap shooting and maybe long range rifle which is not a bad idea for me because I am not a natural shot. I have to work at it and work at it to be any good. I have experience with long range shooting but this will give me an opportunity to hone my skills.
  20. Trying hard to resist the temptation of just buying six guns straight up.

      Site membership (VCRA defence), I think it'd be better to not muddy the waters for other readers and propagate the mythical UKARA license any more than it already is.

  21. Not sure about airsoft mate but you need a licence to own a paintball gun here. I have only really heard of airsoft because I stumbled upon it while researching my impending move over there. You can get pistols under a cat H licence, I had a Cat A, B and H licence which is basically rifles, shotguns which are not pump and semi auto handguns/revolvers. Had to shoot about 12 times a year and buy a ridiculous safe to house the guns, it is an expensive sport here. Cannot own semi auto rifles unless a primary producer and only then low cals, I am not sure exactly because I have never had that cat of licence. I noticed you guys have semi auto 22's which is cool, I want to get back into shooting over there but there doesn't seem to be pistol shooting! which sucks, I was into IPSC shooting so will be getting into to airsoft instead as that won't be an option there.
