  1. Still waiting on a pre order. Was told Jan, then it was cancelled and a new supplier gave assurances they'd deliver in Feb... no regular updates or reaching out. Last time I use that site.

      I ordered a railed dustcover from DCA with an estimated delivery time of 14-30 days and it was a real nightmare until it just randomly turned up one day - are you a lot of money in or is it just a part?

      @Robert James I think the guys at Alpha Delta have them although not on the website

  2. I like lurking on this forum, but my god, people "scamming" and the bots are rife. Something needs to be done before users get too annoyed 😒

      So I had a long text written and then decided to log out and try to create a new account to see something but it's been disabled 🤷‍♂️ and it didn't copy.

       

      Anyway, there are many suggestions on the forum suggestions thread/feedback as to how it can managed more efficiently. I understand nothing will be 100%. 

       

      On some discord servers you have to physically click a button to then be able to access the threads/rooms available, on Facebook you have to answer questions before you can join. I am sure that forum permissions would allow something similar.

       

      My original post was not a dig at the mods, they do a great job. However looking at the forum suggestions thread, it appears things are being done in the background by the admin. Would have been good to have a thread about it or an update, but that's beside the point.

       

      And Colin, I've offered to help before when i didn't have shift work and was very active on the forum. I dont think the answer is "more" mods personally. Furthermore, I understand scammers are on every site, I wasn't born yesterday, but again, like the above suggestions, anyone could sign up post a picture of a gun and sell it to an unsuspecting player with no real way of stopping them short of banning them after the fact.

      If you understand that scammers are on every site, why complain in such a dramatic manner about people scamming on this site?  Scamming seems to be far more widespread on other sites.

      The measures that can be put in place are dependent on the software the site runs on; I suspect that it does not have the functionality to put the sort of measures that you suggest in place.  If it does, they would probably have been implemented by now.

      @Colin Allen - barely "dramatic" but, thats your opinion, just like i gave mine. Thats what a forum is for, opinions and ideas etc. So i can give mine in which ever way i wish. "Dramatically" or to suggest that something (anything) should be done. 

       

      A very quick glance on Google shows there is a way to do Q&A on registration and forum posts/thread listing vs how many posts said person has made. Or perhaps under 100 posts starting a thread in classifieds has to be "looked at" first. It runs off of IPB software which has been around for years and that's just two/three suggestions. Not saying they will work, but it's something rather than nothing.

       

       

      As Jedi said, the admin has stopped registrations and is currently looking at what the next/best process is for spam etc. 

       

      I like the forum spam and scam free, as much as it can be, and it's frustrating to see it be used to scam on. 

  3. @Speedbird_666 @Tackle @Jedi_Master I dont know who is a mod anymore...
  4. Baldurs gate 3 - without doubt, the best game of the year, I'd argue decade. The depth the lore the replayability, the characters, the builds, I could go on. 150hours for the whole game including side quests or 70 for main quests. Or get xbox game pass (pc or console) and get free games If that's not your thing, dishonored 1 or 2 is good, like Hitman but set in the industrial times. Hitman 3 - above but modern Halo i still think divinity original sin is great but is easily trumped by Bg3 Planet zoo Steam have a sale on right now, I think its only 10% off so you can try other places but it's an easy way to pick up cheap games. To be fair, all of the games that I mentioned in your original quote I actually think I still play them or at least would if I wasn't doing other things.
  5. I'm back. Glad to see nothing has changed too much. Howdy 🤠

      @Rogerborg I did not just pre order the krytac vector, rushed on here to tell the vector man himself but he appears to have vanished 😪

  6. Speed loader for TM mk18 GBBR? Lips are so tight i can barely get BBs in with a regular speed loader.

      @Groot So i got this today, still really difficult to load BBs. Im guessing ill just need to keep using it and keep using it to "weaken" the spring in the mag

      They will be stiff for a while  ut that is the best speedloader to use.

      Just try tilting the speedloader slightly as you use it. Should be a little easier.

  7. Recommendations for a holster for g17 WET, light bearing and tracer please? nothing that costs £90

    1. SSPKali

      I have used a FOBUS holster for my WE G19 with an Olight on it. Held the pistol nicely but wasn't the quickest to draw or re-holster (depends how much of a gun slinger you are!) 

       

      £30-35 depending on belt fitting. https://www.tactical-kit.co.uk/fobus-glock-17-light-bearing-holster-rbt17-12799-p.asp

      Thanks @SSPKali, although it appears a tracer wouldnt fit as it looks sealed at the end?

    3. SSPKali

      SSPKali

      Bugger, missed that part! Ignore me…

  8. I need to cut some of this plastic off, what's the best way? I can't fit my tracer through the hoke so my pistol holster doesn't work currently

      Files are slower but less likely to go off piste...

  9. Not my picture of the mk18 the first one. Only photo I've got other than the 2nd one
  10. My newest purchase. MK18, also got a glock, but everyone has seen one of them
  11. At this point, no. I've messed luke around enough with dates etc and it's almost impossible to get an answer from some.
  12. It's cancelled. Nobody replied to take over. Sorry for not replying, been extremely busy.
  13. Ok - bit of bad news - I have to work on this date now and cannot get out of it. Since i've had to move dates around already and I know a few people changed things around to get this sorted - I need to hand this over to someone else OR it will be cancelled. I'm happy to refund anyone now, or you can wait until a replacement is found to carry on the booking. Its pretty much all done you just need to nail the numbers down and chase people for money. I'll give it a couple days, if nobody taking over ill cancel - i have informed Luke already. DM me if you want a refund, you'll have to give me some sort of idea of whom im looking out for in the account though. Thanks and love. Sorry.
  14. Everyone who has previously shown interest has been PM'd as have people that have said theyre coming. to confirm 1830 - 2300 on the 31st July £25.00 per player, if we can get 25 players minimum Places still available - we are on around 19/20 players at the moment but most havent paid.
