Educate yourselves airsofters. The pith helmet is a summer essential. Everyone should play in one.
And don't shoot until you see the whites of their eyes.

I can't believe that I've just watched a 10 minute documentary on pith helmets!
It was enjoyable though.

Last S.T.A.L.K.E.R.S. game of the year this weekend. The lad is working. Mrs TPH has an old school friend over from overseas. I'm being pulled about in the local hospital.
Bloody gutted!
Looked forward to this for months.

Enjoying the stars and a few ciders at Cajun Chicken. Great weekend so far.
-
All deposits paid for Cajun Chicken in October. One of my favourite games of the year.
The game is based on the film Southern Comfort. Bloody good fun. Time to don the dungarees and shotgun!
-
Just booked my Operation Thunder tickets for the weekend after this.
Bloody excited just thinking about going. Since I'm training pretty hard at the moment, my black PJs do emulate the pong of a chap whose been in the field for too long a couple of times a week.
Du ban GI!

Second weekend in a row. The pith helmet is seeing some action.

Off to Diggers tomorrow in deepest Kent. Black pyjamas, RPK and pith helmet packed.
I can hear the screams of the imperialists already. Shame the weathers more Northern highlands than Southern Delta but there we go...
That's the Ho Chi Minh padded jacket packed too.
Du ban GI!

Getting my loadout ready for a game the weekend after next. This post apocalypse look is seriously harder than it looks. Reckon my 1970s Warsaw Pact kit will be a good base.
Gas mask is de-filtered and ready.
Snow Wolf K98 is shooting uncannily well as usual.
TM 1911 is fine for a magazine a fill. If it's cold I'll use red gas. Since we're limited to 17 BBs it will be fine capacity wise.
Nice to have a game less than an hour away (ish).
Camping in October is fine if you have the kit. A touch of medicinal scotch will work wonders too no doubt.

it's events like that that make me want to open up my Tanaka m700 and see what's up with it as it's not shooting how I want it to (yes, I have 3 gas m700s!). It's in a real wood m700 stock and definitely can look the part for post-apoc; will bring it to Namsoft in 2023 if it's shooting well by then, which I sincerely hope it would be!
What event are you going to and where? Hope you have fun with it! -
I'm off to Stalkers at Tuddenham next weekend.
I'd like to see the wood m700. Certainly looking forward to Namsoft next year. Last game of the season has come to mean the coming of the autumn.
When I find what I know is lurking in the house kit wise, you may get a pic @Rogerborg. I've a pair of 1930s goggles that I want to re-lens for one. Should be on my dead Nazi tankman's skull but someone has moved them.

Just checked when a game that I am interested in playing is on.
Turns out it's 9am tomorrow morning and I forget to get tickets. Bollox.
To console myself I bought tickets to all of the remaining Nam games and a modern milsim. Even ironed on a set of PAVN collar tabs ready for stitching.
Still have to fix my pith helmet. This may become a priority.

British Army lightweights. Leave them on the washing line for a couple of weeks to fade them.
You want these ones without the map pocket. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264344266961?

Going off for Vietnam themed silliness again this weekend.
Still picking the thorns out of my knees after the last game.
Still haven't got round to getting a cheap set of gel filled kneepads.
I have bought two slabs of ale and a bottle of Stoly though.

Just had a look at some CYMA AK47 midcaps. Several going at around £20, the cheapest being £13 odd after postage.
I'm sure I paid less than £4 per 70 rounder from TG about six years ago.
First world problem and all that but still.

I've been getting some bits and pieces from SIXMM although for anything larger than a letter the postage is a killer.
Was gonna get some midcaps from there but they wanted £37 postage just for a box of 5
-
It’s a pain to get any CYMA / TM AK parts at the minute for whatever reason.
Close to binning it and getting something M4‘ish..
-
And just like that one of the lips on a Cyma AK74 Hicap just tore off. Of course I can't get anything reasonably priced in Rip off Britain! Got these for 4 quid each before. Cheapest I can find it is 13 now.
-
Just counted my rifs... thirteen plus the never used pistol.
Sounds bloody unlucky to me, so the search for a PPSh is back on.
I clearly remember working out how much I would save buying a CM16 rather than renting one when I started out. What the bastard fuck happened? 😳
-
TigerHK111 got my money for some mags tonight. Glad I bought £400 of consumables and bits pre-Brexit. The days of flinging cheapo Kilo 9 BBs at just over a fiver a bag seem over.
Looking for some bits tonight and whoever has UK stock is making a killing. £25 for an extremely basic bolty mag? They are still up for their old price of £9 elsewhere, albeit not currently available.
At least Dick Turpin wore a bloody mask.
-
I'm still surprised at the amount of price gouging that's not going on, although granted that's mostly because I'm seeing things as out-of-stock. I'd be wanting a stocking system that bumped unit prices to the moon as stock levels drop towards zero.
Aside, Kilo 9 are the only BB that I've ever binned - I bought some of the green green ones (colour, bio) and couldn't get them to hop at all.

My oldest boy bought some bits’n’bobs from Japan , had the notification on the 25th to say was being posted that day AND arrived today For less than the equivalent in the UK and the P&P was only £2.70 more than the UK seller ! Where as the stuff he ordered from Nottingham on the 22nd STILL hasn’t arrived ! AND that ladles and jelly spoons is why I try my damdest to avoid uk retailers like the plague !

Picked this up today. 6+1 shooter.
Bet General Custer wished he'd had one...

6+1 seems a tad misleading.
6+FU seems a bit more accurate.....

Just purchased a CYMA Dragunov. Now for the inevitable DMR-ing and standing to one side of other projects for the new toy...
-
Thought I was quite the smart arse as I dropped a Snow Wolf PPSh into my virtual WGC basket for only £120.00. With postage, tax etc, I thought that I would still had a reasonable buy.
Carriage to the UK was over £80... That's more than I can buy an overpriced one for in the UK.

One of the guys at my site turned up with a PPSh a few weeks back. It's an impressive bit of kit!

Hong Kong, they probably have to hire a Kesselian blockade runner to skip it past customs.

I'm old school, I was going with a Romulan Warbird.

Merry Christmas all you flingers of plastic.
Let's hope that the airsoft Santa brings all that you desire.

Pretty amused to see another load of drugs advertised on the site. As if anyone on here would waste cash on drugs when there are toy guns to purchase.

No sane person would buy pills online from some random username. However, there are those do buy from shops with BB in the name, so you never know.
-
My first garden plinker came from a site with BB in the name, worked fine until I connected a battery 😂
-
Normally I’d agree but can’t complain I just bought a pistol from a business with ‘BB’ in its name(only place that had it)and I had to have it two tone as that’s all they had in stock . Site picture it had a blue slide but on delivery it only had blue grip panels ! Result for me !

I was about to pop a case of cloudy cider into my trolley this evening. I thought I'd treat myself for Crimbo. I then remembered the weight adding properties of the stuff, and that any added belly fat would mean that my winter Russian loadout would be too tight.
Can't decide whether I should be proud of the self control, or saddened by the reach of my obsession with running about with toy pews at my bloody age...
Enjoying an isotonic sports scotch in consolation.

Well underneath our tree sits a box 📦 about the size of an old gallon petrol can.
It say fragile,glass. When shaken its obviously liquid.
Upon further investigation 🔎 I have seen a label underneath which says in very small letters 'Bristol cider company'. Aha! A clue 🤔
I don't think she would get me a gallon of petrol,not a todays prices so putting two and two together I'm pretty sure it's cider. However, with it being from Bristol which I believe is the home of west country cider,its gonna be strong and possibly still cider.
I'm a fizzy cider type of animal.
So I'm either gonna hate it,which won't be well recieved, or I'm gonna love it and get smashed off my head 🙃 which also won't be well recieved.
Damed if I do and damed if I don't 😅😅
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

Just fitted a rotary hop to (one of my rapidly breeding) G&G M 4s. ML and Omega. HT SHS motor and some cosmetics/ergonomics.
The air seal seams fine judging by the consistency. Think I'll leave it there until it's time of the rattle can. The rest of the goodies can stay in their boxes for another rif.

Another AK followed me home today.
One did last week too.
There's another that I fancy in the classifieds section...
Is there an AKs Anonymous?

There’s an AK that will be following me home soon, do you think there could be a connection!?…. 😂👍

Given how many I own and variants thereof I have owned I think I should set up some kind of support group...
-
Ordered my fourth AK variant tonight.
I fully expect to use the thing about once a year whilst I stick with my CYMA 028S for most opfor games.
All my rifs are hardly used bar the CM16 and cable tied and gaffer taped under folder.
I put this down to advanced idiocy tbh...

@Rogerborg come to the dark side! we have reliable motor meshing!
-
past 18mths I’ve gone from just two(a TM 74su recoil and a Cyma Zukhov)for several yrs to 9 all different models .😳
-
Bollox! Phone call today apologising for the error in advertising an out of stock rif.
Only TG seem to have stock and they still wont ship to the UK.

So tired I can hardly chew my steak. Muscles well worked. Laughter by the bucket load and real friendship being shown.
M14 throwing 0.3s like laser beams.
Good weekend so far!
