Condensation kills most kit. Cold reduces the performance of batteries.
Cold but dry is key when I'm away at winter games for a weekend. Keep your lipos warm indoors and don't put anything away without a thorough dry. Your better of with them on display than risking unseen dampness in a sealed hard case.
Cold rifs just need a few shots to soften the hop rubber as long as you've kept the batteries warm.
Jesus fucking wept!!!! 😭
I see they're getting around to sweeping the darkest corners of the cracker factory... 🤣
Did you hear about the two thieves who stole a calendar?
They each got six months.
TM. I like boring reliability in sports goods. You wouldn't play snooker with a cue that bent, or squash with a racquet that had rotten strings. Why use a pistol that 'sort of' works for airsoft?
Some people are never happy.
My mate Dave has sex a couple of times a day, visits the gym every other day, reads two good books a week, is never on his own, and still doesn't like prison.
You could consider German military leather gloves. The sizing is very accurate if you measure your hands. If you wear them for a couple of days after soaking them in leather food they fit like a second skin. I wear them for themed games. About a tenner IIRC.
I went through a phase of making various hobo cookers for meths, as well as pine cone cookers from big tins of Chappie.
Mrs TPH has one of those ultralight titanium burners nowadays. Less than a tenner and less hassle but still heavier and you have to carry the gas.
There's no perfect answe for all situations. Come the apocalypse I'll be grateful for that pinecone one...
Interesting stuff. I have some Swedish cold weather kit for winter camping at games. Warm but extremely bulky and stiff as it's canvas faced.
This looks much more modern and user friendly.
I once went for a walk in those East German padded winter trousers and jacket on a bitterly cold day. I got about half a mile from home and nearly passed out. I ended up taking the lot off and walking back with steam coming off me. Glad I live in the country tbh. A trouser-less stroll through town might have ended badly...
Is the jacket practical for UK temperatures? I'm thinking of a coat for winter fishing rather than airsoft. For running around it's tshirt all year, albeit under a poncho in the very worst weather.
If you want a back up then they'll all do the job. The MK23 has a very long trigger pull though I seem to recall from using the lad's.
What do you want to use it for? CQB primary, back-up in woodland, themed game etc etc.
Looking at their 'About Us' section, they accept PayPal. You can check their ISO registration if you want more reassurance but I would think that you're fine.
Perhaps this tech uses crystals? For all we know, he could have put serious time in raising the rifs vibrations.
Does the thing shoot like its chakras are balanced?
