  1. 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.

      Crikey mate.

      That sound like a messy procedure. Bloody Gutted.It must be serious. Best of luck.😉

       

      Bad news about missing the game though ☹️

  2. Living the dream...

      Just apologise to your wife for whatever you did, even if you didn't do anything.

  3. Merry Christmas all you flingers of plastic.  

     

    Let's hope that the airsoft Santa brings all that you desire.   

  4. 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!

  5. Off to more Namsoft silliness tomorrow.  I fully intend to hoon around in more ridiculous manner than usual due to it being the last game of the year.  

     

    The Cold War loadouts will soon be out.  

     

    Same Imperialists, different season.

      You'll have to destroy the safe zone in order to save it?

      Since my first namsoft game got cancelled, make sure to smash the filthy Americans for me :D

      I'm still waiting for the local site to run one that was promised in 2018. I bought the rice hat, the pyjamas, I even got a retro-look amplifier and loaded it up with Viet Minh propaganda voices and tracks.

       

      Still waiting, man, you don't know, you weren't on the list.

  6. 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...

      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.

  7. Picked this up today.   6+1 shooter.  

     

    Bet General Custer wished he'd had one...

     

    No photo description available.

      6+1 seems a tad misleading.

       

      6+FU seems a bit more accurate.....

      The poison rises from the goonads and seeps down to the muscles.

  8. 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 ! 

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

     

    Du ban GI!

  10. 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!

  11. So...  I am half way up some bloody mountain that my Scottish wife has dragged me up. 

     

    As a boy from the flatlands of East Anglia I am sitting up reading as she sleeps in the tent, and The Man pulls up in 4x4.  He wants to know what the fuck we're doing...

     

    If I am honest I would say that I am reading the replies to a thread on an airsoft forum that degenerated into a discussion about pissing on your boots. 

     

    I tell them that I am reading a few work emails before bed as this spot has 4G.  

     

    Night night.

      Kinda wish you'd went with honesty on this one, would make for a funny anecdote :P

      We should look into a Scotch wife swap - mine has this on her pinboard.

       

      Seriously, Why Can't I?: I love not camping...

  12. 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.

  13. 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.

    2. Tactical Pith Helmet

      Quite.  When I bought and sold lumps of metal for a living, the price could quadruple in an afternoon.  

       

      Perhaps as levels decrease we'll see more active opportunism.  

       

      Shame about your bio BBs.  I used my last(ish) .28s on Sunday.  They were impressive.

      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 !
