  1. @KombatWombat You'd need written permission from these guys: https://m.facebook.com/TheUKARApolice
  2. They don't look like Glock Magazines? More like M92 mags?
  3. That's a typo presumably? 😂
  4. Apparently a lot of the internals are cross compatible. Futuretech Airsoft has used the gel blaster MOSFETs in airsoft builds before and they cost peanuts in comparison. Also, you can buy iron man style glove things: https://gelsoft.co.uk/gelsoft-claw.html
  5. Payday yesterday = buy airsoft things

  6. Definitely looks more like a gaggle of kids are playing their own game in the woods.. 😕 Apart from that, I enjoyed the videos - fun to watch, well edited and none of that "Whaaatzaaup gaiz" nonsense.
  7. It never really gets taken out of the case much, but it still takes good glamour shots 😁
  8. You just wanna prove Stretch wrong 😂
  9. On my Specna keymod rail, I attached a vertical grip and used it as leverage to undo the threads for the first time. It was ok after that. It'll be anti-clockwise as you look down the barrel from the flashhider ends.
  10. I'd wager it needs a really fucking good twist, because there's no grub screws holding it in places. However, can you show us photos of the flash hider end? Seems really convoluted to have to take the rail off.
  11. On a different tangent.. wtf happened to Bespoke Airsoft. They started out with so much promise, and even with their custom striker parts, they looked like they were going places... Now they're just another "JustBBGuns" style site. Another iWholesales box shifter. Gutting to see, really.
  12. Just search your email inbox for "UKARA player number" and you'll have the date it was issued.
  13. You can find it on eBay, but it comes from China. At the moment, I don't know of anywhere that has (or had) it in stock apart from Weapon 762.
  14. Oh fuck, aye.. I somehow forgot about Covid 19! Swap the part about looking for a table, to "Work from the boot of your car!"
  15. Mate, no problem at all. Any time. If there's any question, or scenario or anything you want cleared up, just send me a Private Message if you like
  16. @Sambo - I used to suffer with this loads in my youth, so I feel for you. I won't cover what the others have. It's already good advice What I will say is: Remember that you will have paid exactly the same money as everyone else that day, to turn up and shoot BBs at people. Do not let them intimidate you, try to boss you around (You get the fat old guys barking orders sometimes, just ignore them), or try and single you out for having a Two-tone gun. Everyone is equal once you've paid your fees for the day. One thing that used to make my anxiety bad when I was younger was not knowing what will happen. Not knowing how each part of the day will pan out, if I'd never experienced it before (Part of the reason I fucking hate surprises - my missus hates it :D) Hopefully, if I write out what to expect, it might put your mind at rest. So let's give it a go - going to be a bit of a long read I'm afraid. Arrive on site and get your stuff out the boot Walk into the safezone and find a table/bench/area to set up for the day (try and pick something under cover in case it pisses down) (This is where I like to try and eyeball where the toilets are so you can find them confidently later, as if you've been here hundreds of times before) Dump all your stuff on said table Look out for the main desk/booth where you sign in and pay and walk over. "Is this where I pay?" / "Yes Mate, just sign in here" - and you sign your name, signature, and some sites even Registration of your car if necessary. When you're signing in/paying, maybe mention to the guy/girl at the desk that it's your first time ever, and that you might need some pointers etc. If it's a good site, they'll keep an eye out for you. Go back to your table and open your case (Remember: Do not ever put magazines in your guns in the safezone). And start filling your magazines with BBs, wind them up in advance if they're hi-caps. Get ready as though you're about to go out into the game Unfortunately, this is the boring bit, if you get there early enough to get a good table, you're in for a wait of about 45-60 minutes until game time Go to the sign-in desk and buy a drink / make a coffee. Try to relax and take your mind off the anxiety, maybe strike up conversation with the guy next to you, explain it's your first game ever and he'll probably ask how you got on after each game Then eventually it's the safety brief. The head marshal will ask everyone to gather round and they'll give a 10 minute (ish) speech on the safety rules for that particular site, dos and don'ts basically. Some sites will detail about what grenades they allow all that - to be honest the safety brief is pretty boring, but it's mandatory and you've got to stand through it whether it's your first time or your 100th. Just keep looking the dude in the eye and nod in agreement when he looks your way BUT try to pay attention for your first ever one He'll probably then say "Right, five minutes until we head out!" (as if you've not had long enough already) Get yourself kitted up, vest on, with mags in the pouches, get your gun and get your mask When you're in the game area your mask or eye protection stays on all the time. Don't try and remove it, or lift one corner out of the way to wipe fog away. Just don't risk it Head out for the first game by following the crowd. Usually the first game at a lot of sites is a faster, more fun orientated game, in order to get everyone started happy and get the blood pumping. After the game is finished, you'll trudge back to the safe zone, hopefully happy and with a few kills under your belt. There'll be maybe another 2 or 3 games and then you stop for lunch. Eat your lunch (Site provided pork foam and foreskin sausages in a dry bun - Nice!) Then you'll head out for 2 or 3 more games before you're told it's the end of the day and you can pack up I won't cover what game modes to expect because each site does it differently. Lots of places like a Attack & Defend timed game, where one team will push back the other on set route until you have a final showdown at a fort, or a building or something. Then the teams are reversed and you have to beat the previous attacker's time etc I will say this, no one cares who wins. No one is tallying up whether the blue team does better than red for example. Nobody cares. Everyone is there to play Tactical Hide and Seek with toy guns. It's Laser quest for grown ups. It's Cowboys and Indians for kids who never decided to be sensible. It is fun! Sorry it's a bit of a long post (Usually @Sitting Duck's forte!) but I hope it helps. Like I mentioned, I used to get so hung up of not knowing what to expect that it ruined a lot of stuff for me as a kid - so hopefully this helps!
  17. IT WAS YOU! You should have said - I'd have thrown an AFUK patch in the pink jiffy!
  18. you know what's better than a usp right? I might be in touch on payday.
  19. Certainly - I ordered the Large size. I'm a 36" waist normally. There's lots of adjustment left over once it's on, so would go to a 38", maybe even 40" at a push?
  20. Mine was very cheap (£20!). And I'm really happy with mine. https://www.weapon762.com/belt-and-suspenders/2050-tmc-175-inch-shuto-tactical-belt-metal-buckle-version.html It doesn't have the MOLLE all the way round to the front on one side though as you can see where my USP is. But, it puts the holster at a good "3 o'clock" on my hip, and I wouldn't put pouches in front of it anyway.
  21. Morning mate, Sorry to be a pain - could you make an advert in the classifieds section please, instead of the main forum: https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/category/12-hpa/
  22. If I hadn't just got my USP - I'd have had that Hi-Capa off you
