  1. Played yesterday with .30g BBs for the first time..

    Whooow what a difference! Won't be going back to .25g now (for woodland anyway)!

      Learn to aim and you'll spend the same.

      Where's the fun in aiming, it's all about the spray and pray. *insert sarcasm*

       

      There is still a large jump in price between .25s and .3s, almost double in my personal opinion.

      Well if you learn to shoot then one can easily cut the amount they shoot in half if not significantly more. If you want to spray and pray then feel free of course, but you're easy pickings for the rest of us with bright white stream of BBs leading straight back to whichever tree you're standing behind.

  2. Anyone else playing at Dorking tomorrow? @Albiscuit ?

      Nah, works been mental, wont have time to play till the end of the month at least :(

  3. Is there anyway to get a threaded outer barrel for my Glock 17 without splashing the cash on a guarder barrel? 

     

    Can't find them cheaper than £49 anywhere.

      I think Shooters Design do them too, but probably still a fair amount of money.

       

      Assume this is TM?

      Screw the barrel, get something like this, at least then it will be solid and wont be hanging off the barrel screwing with the slide action.

      I've purchased a 11mm to 14mm adapter with a cap. It looks just like a threaded barrel minus the expense.

  4. Could anyone confirm if a Glock 50 round mag would fit in an MP5 mag pouch. (I imagine it would..?)

    1. proffrink

      proffrink

      Depends on the pouch but yeh, probably. I use MP7 pouches.

      it will as i had done it in past with my tm g18

      Cheers guys,

       

      I'm toying with the Idea of putting together a small portable set up for Thursday night games at the mall.

      Chuck a Glock, couple of 50 round mags and my mask into a rucksack and away we go!

  5. We've all seen the floors made out of pennies, but I'm going to be the first to make a floor covered in BBs! 

     

    Even better! Tracer BBs!

    Glow in the dark floors!

      that is blooming awesome lol i want it in my man cave, what would be cool is all types of ammo.. but i must say that looks good doesn't it. :)

      that would drive my wife crazy lol, she moans when she sees a few bbs in the floor when hoovering, do this one day when shes out. 

    4. Seany.exe

      Seany.exe

      Glueing each bb to the floor? Are you mad? Just dump 30ks worth on the floor and smooth it out so they're packed down. Then hit it with the resin xD

  6. The Mall was a BLAST today! Loved it. Honestly the best airsofting I've done this year.

    Highlights included @CarloBear and his 6-7 kill grenade and the mass rave on the concourse in the last game!

      I've not heard of that one before.. is it woodland or CQB?

      ;)

    4. CarloBear

      CarloBear

      I shall be at The Mall tomorrow :D Asian dude with Dye i4 and an Evo

  8. There's a new site opening not far from me (existing paintball site hosting airsoft days).

     

    I message the guy "What's the FPS limits on Sunday?"

    The reply: "Not a clue mate..."

     

    I might give them a few months before going...

    2. Jedi_Master

      What is the site called.  Not part of the other Reading shite site is it?

  9. Nice advert mate... Mind removing the crap off the gun so we can see it?

  10. Seriously tempted to buy one of these to take to the mall.

      I think we should all rock up with something similar next time there are a few of us on a Sunday :) all nominate ourselves for the infected team in the first game too...

       

      Imagine the shame getting tapped by infected with nerf guns :P 

    3. ImTriggerHappy
    4. Sacarathe

      Sacarathe

      Wow, non childfriendly knockoff nerf darts have come down in price a lot over the last year.

  11. It does my crust in that people advertise guns or kit for sale as "Collection only" but don't say where they are from, nothing on their profile or no regular sites..

     

    Where would we have to collect from then?!

  12. Does anyone have someone to recommend for gun teaching around Reading?

    I want to try and sort out why I'm getting such a low FPS.

    Am I better off just bunging it into A2? 

  13. I'll be sad to see it go, but it's time to see my little Glock 19 go to a better home - it's up for sale in the Gas section...

     

  14. Who's going to be at The Mall on Thursday night?

    I'll come and say hi!

  15. What's the score with reporting a retailer (actually two) that sell RIFs without asking for a defence?

     

    1. CES_williamson

      CES_williamson

      I would say to contact UKARA? cant think of anywhere else that could help!

    2. Lozart

      Your local Trading Standards office would be a good start https://www.gov.uk/find-local-trading-standards-office

      Cheers guys,

       

      I reported it to UKARA and they've asked Frank from Fire-support to get in touch with me.

      Going to give him the details in a bit.

  16. I've got an awful G&G CM16 Carbine that I take to games as a back up. It works but shoots terribly - needs alot of work.

    Anyone interested in having it cheap for a project. Or to learn about the innards of a gun?

  17. Is anyone else playing the Mall on Thursday night?

      I'll be in the Umbrella loadout with the Zombie hand on the back.....and a purple butt-plug for a mele weapon :wacko:

      ......:huh: I'll be sure to keep an eye out!

      I've got a yellow Smiley face on the front of my vest as well as this patch on the front.

  18. Forecast is unrelenting rain from 10am for Dorking today. I knew I should've bought those tactical armbands! Wish me luck!

  19. Got my first M203 for woodland games. But MOSCART shells.. any brands to avoid. Or are they all much of the same?

  20. Does anyone have anywhere to go to test fire their rifles before a game day? I've bunged a load of upgrades into my main gun, but I have to wait until I next play to see how the thing even shoots before thinking of tweaking it!

    1. Albiscuit

      Albiscuit

      Local store? I know mine has a tech, a chrono and a space to fire...

      Its worth asking!!

      Could of been worse you could of been one of the unlucky ones the terminator was chasing. Knowing the layout does make it much better to play but I do miss the thrill of getting lost in there sometimes. Not sure if I came across you much in game because most people look the same in there.

    3. L3wisD

      L3wisD

      Only in the very last game, I recall.

       

      I was gearing up to tag you in Peacocks but someone on my team got you before I did. :)

       

      Sorry our meeting was brief, I'll keep an eye out for you next time we come down.

    4. Albiscuit

      Albiscuit

      Tense terminator games are great, the more people with flashing red go pro lights on their head the better too, so many times people are running away from "the Terminator" only to actually run into the real one cos they were running away from a reflection or a go pro light hahah

       

      I will hopefully make it down early Feb now!!

  22. Anyone played at First & Only's "The Base" in swindon? Thinking of going sunday...

  23. ZeroOne have G&G CM16s going for £90 at the moment - they're converted from GBB to AEG. Good price for anyone looking for a Backup/Loan Rifle?

      Sitting Duck

      Good spot - but BB boxes can be more prone to cracking when pushed. Not a bad deal though - would of been better to just flog them @ £80 and saved the work

  24. The slide release on my new WE Glock 19 is REALLY stiff and slow. I don't remember my old KJ works G19 being this bad. Hoping it'll be ok after a few mags at EAG Dorking tomorrow.

    1. SeniorSpaz87

      SeniorSpaz87

      Rack it. A lot. Just let it loosen up a bit.

  25. Probably not a big deal to some, but last night I stripped my AEG and changed the spring. To a complete DIY idiot, this was a huge win for me! (Let's hope it still works on Sunday - Going to EAG Dorking again if anyone else is going?)

      How does it shoot - dunno haven't been able to cock the f*cker yet: sniper-600fps-600x361.jpg?x11261

    3. Governor

      Governor

      @Duck, when I had my 550fps spring installed I was the only chap in my group able to quickly and nearly effortlessly cock it. Everyone else massively struggled with it :D

    4. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      I will not say "if your right arm is much stronger than your left arm" or "you will go blind etc..." - nope not saying any of that mainly coz I'm short sighted btw
