  1. Printed will do fine with HPA, I'd argue better than green as the impact would be a lot more constant and the output more consistent. I have been running a Mi3D build virtually exclusively since March and that thing has had well over 10K through it and hasn't missed a beat. I run 80psi though and like you have put a 5.1 length barrel in, I make a very nice 1.01J with a .25 which is fine for indoors. The idea of having a dedicated slide for for different purposes is very logical but as you've mentioned, I have almost more capa's than days of the week but I find myself gravitating towards 1 more than any of the others. You'd likely find yourself just "not being bothered" swapping about as once you find "the one" you'll stick with it. Wow! I've purposefully not been hounding him as I know he's had issues but if they're in the UK that's a huge advantage. I was tempted to stick an order in to Rainbow and see if the VIP arrived before the BC. I may just drop Kyle a message now and see what these other slides are as well..... Cheers for the heads up lol.
  2. Option 3 - Costa VIP slide. Rainbow have some at the moment, I keep saying I won't mod my skirmish build but it's so difficult lol
  3. First outing with a DMR this weekend. Wow! now I need to spend big bucks on 36's as the 32's just seemed to be falling short.

      Mmm, there's quite a jump in price between .32 and .36, I'm still too cheap to make the leap.  If you splash the cash, it would be great to get an airsoft-metres estimate of how much more effective range you see from them.

      @Rogerborg I was looking at pricing last night, 32s about £15 for 3000, 36's I was like oooo £18 that's not bad, yeah for 1000 not 3000 😐 Comparitive brand. Cheapest I've found so far is Blaster Devils for £23 for 3000.
      Site I played was a 450 DMR limit, I want to see how different a 400 site feels with the same 32's.

      @Rogerborg to answer your question with the ol' range study spreadsheet @400fps equivalence (1.49j) .36's come out at 1.88m further for the "effective range" criteria, which is a hop set for 20cm of rise and the range calculated for when the bb drops back down to the firing level.

       

      0.48's using the same criteria are 6.21m further.

       

      of course that's assuming that the extra hop needed isn't dropping the energy, which in reality may or may not end up being more important than the theoretical improvement.

       

  4. New pistol time! Tried another new audio/video setup as well.
  5. But there's already one...... https://discord.gg/pMVMFvC7
  6. Without sounding too brutal, you're not going to be able to just say you're going to use it for IPSC and be able to order a RIF. The retailer will absolutely want to see proof and likely take a long suck through the teeth whilst they contemplate it. Pro tip though.....SPEAK TO THE RETAILER YOU'RE THINKING OF USING. We're not all Septic Pegg and we don't know what you're thinking of buying or from where, why ask the internet when you can get the information credibly first hand from a simple phone call?
  7. Rocking a prototype 3D printed build, lets have a look!
  8. New gameplay now live ! @Rogerborg has already picked me up on a bad habit so please go easy 🥺

      That guy's a dick though, I wouldn't pay any attention to him and his bitter ranting.  That looks like a really fun site and game.

  9. Will be lucky. The WE capas are not TM spec so whilst I'm not saying you won't. Most parts are designed to be TM replacement.
  10. A very action packed domination is up this week. Objectives?
  11. Valkyrie Olight PL2 is probably the answer lol
  12. That's bloody awful even for an Umarex.
  13. Will be equally as accurate however have you thought about just adapting an M4 you already have and like with something like this? https://www.badas.design/shop
  14. Back on the tech bench this week, looking at how I put my suppressors together. By no means am I saying this is "the" best method but it works great for me.
  15. The question I'd ask is, can you take a compressor to and run it at site? Probably not. A 48Ci steely like most of us buy needs to be topped up several times throughout the day. You would be far better off spending the same money on a decent air rifle type cylinder and then paying £5 every 3-4 games to get it filled by someone with a multi thousand pounds compressor than trying to jerry rig a noisy and dangerous unit at site.
  16. Standard one is fine unless it's not sealing properly. If you do upgrade a ZCI plastic rotary is the one to go for (check out @ak2m4 for that). Whilst you're doing the hopup, stick in a ZCI inner barrel as the stock one is made of kitkat wrappers.

    3D printed airsoft items, they fit perfectly (once you've adjusted them) 😁 Another spot on video dude 👍
  18. If you're blowing fuses that's not blowing the mosfet, the fuse is protecting the mosfet. The wires going into your stock mosfet though are battery + and - and then the white plug is the data cable to your trigger contacts. The devil in me says to look at swapping in a Perun ETU++, they're inexpensive, give more functionality and a 3 year old could install one but I'd probably be doing you an injustice as a fuse blows for a reason and you probably need to resolve that first.
  19. Not to hand but I got them from Amazon if it helps?
  20. Short one this week, another awesome Zombies game at Hells, couple killing the Z and then a couple as a Z. Enjoy!
  21. 🥺 Facebook is starting to fill with 4.3 builds. So close but so far.
  22. Run through my HPA kit this week...
  23. Much like OFCOM then they wouldn't see it coming 😄
  24. Ah yes, the convicted nonce trying suicide by police.
