  1. Have a look for me on Zwift, you'll love it ??
  2. Well said and agreed too. Hopefully on here its friendly advice given with a little knowledge thrown in x
  3. As a keen cyclist i would always recommend being on a bike! Do you do any kind of strength training? I'm sure I've heard/read somewhere that conditioning the surrounding muscles of the knee can help with aches and pains? I'm not suggesting you go all out here, but even some body weight squats 2x a week might make a difference. And if it does help then i'll always recommend kettlebell's for a quick home workout.
  4. I have the same problem and I'm left handed too but can shoot the pistol right handed. I have a paddle with an Ebog-Design 3d printed holster that allows the pistol to be drawn outwards not upwards. Feels odd to begin with but after a while it becomes more natural. Fits my 1911's fine and maybe worth a chat to see if they can do a custom one for you? https://ebog-designs.co.uk/collections/holsters
  5. I cant recommend these things enough... they are simply the single best thing you can buy for overall training and conditioning. KETTLEBELLS Plenty of workouts on YouTube to follow that you can tailor to your time/fitness levels. Its a High Intensity Interval Training session that you can fit in during your normal day. They take up hardly any room and i believe the prices for home gym equipment are coming down now the delivery pandemic shizzle is .... well a bit better. The good thing about these is you do this at home. There's no need to travel anywhere, you don't need to spend a fortune on gear or clothing, your not spending hours outside in all weathers.... Its just you, the bell, some space and some time. I'd recommend the cast iron type ones as their physical size is smaller for the same weight as the nylon ones are filled with concrete and can be massive in size. Aim for a 12kg one to start with. My 1st one was a 7.5kg and its was too light and ineffective. I have a 12kg + 20kg plus some home gym equipment. The main movement with KB's is the standard swing, which is mainly leg based and your legs are a lots stronger than you think! You will sweat, a lot, so have a towel and water to hand and sip between each set.
  6. I've one similar - its a 44mm - on my Air Arms S410. Lovely scope and i'm sure you'll like it too ? Hi, Would you have a link for these please, my googling skills are falling short tonight ?‍♀️

  15. I've not actually started playing airsoft yet but here a pic of me with Cap Ess goggles Cheapo metal mesh face guard The Shemagh was fun learning that!
  16. No, not the porn kind.... Whats the best place/person to buy spare mags for my CM16 MOD0. Taiwan gun seems the cheapest but they wont confirm if their mags will work, even though they look ok
  17. Often overlooked, moisture in the air can leave droplets, very small ones on the lens as its pointing upwards. Also if its cold leave the camera and lenses outside for a few airs before your planned shoot. lets them sdjust to the temp from a warm house to cold air and that will stop them fogging up. Ive not done star trails but did a similar setup for fire works night Link to show some other stuff ive done http://www.photoboxgallery.com/barnaby/6636730
  18. This probably wont help your impulsiveness, as i was in the same situation (no ukara, or any other kit )and wanted to get my hands on a gun asap but nearly all the two-tone effects had been slapped on with a dirty great brush. This on the other hand i actually quite liked so i bought it last week http://www.airsoftworld.net/media/wysiwyg/GC16-MOD0-BLK_1_1.gif (I can take some better photos this evening) Slowly getting bits n bobs in from places/peeps have recommended on here so as they say use the search function, or as i did get google to search the site, as i was looking for DMR articles and it came up blank!?
  19. Now, dont hate me, but im also a cyclist. yep one of those annoying twats who dress up in skimpy spandex and clog all the roads up. I also MTB too so it kinda evens it out.... Anyway, cyclists are big fans of Merino wool clothing for cooler/cold riding. I commute to work and even in the really cold spell last week (minus 4 apparently) i wear a short sleeve merino T shirt or even a just a compression vest under a softshell jacket. What im waffling on about here is the merino acts as a warm wicking layer thats tight to your skin, keeps sweat away from your skin and helps regulate your body temp. Have a look into layering up and you may find you dont need a softshell, or you could use them both. But layers are the key thing For instance, just been for a run, its approx 9deg outside, so longsleeve merino with a running t-shirt on. Toasty.
  20. It gets worse, gun arrived at work after i'd left and couldnt get back there to collect it, so i cant get used to it till next week
  21. Lipo's are here, bloody gun not yet humpf!
  22. Some black camo, shirt n trousers and cap. Lipo batterys just turned up so they're on charge And impatiently waiting for the gun to arrive So i bought this top....http://www.kombatuk.com/product_images/1361-1-D.jpg?443 What are the velco patches for, i mean what do i stick on em?
  23. I'm without ukara so i went with the snake effect, i kinda like it
  24. Sweet thanks for your help!
  25. Hi, looking for a bit of battery and charger advise. Rather impulsively, i'm like that sadly, i bought the G&G GC16 30th edition from airsoft world the other night, oddly i kinda like the snakeskin two-tone effect http://www.airsoftworld.net/g-g-gc16-30th-anniversary-limited-edition-aeg-airsoft-rifle-black.html Now i didn't realise at the time it doesn't come with a battery or a charger. I see on their page and from an email chat with them that they list the Vapex cells and a little charger for it. My question is, should i just order this from them, or, is it better for me to go for somewhere/something else. I'm not necessarily looking to start upgrading the gun from the off, but in the interests of potential further upgrades/saving some money/buying a better grade of kit kinda thing. Any help appreciated
