  1. Ordered some 0.28s and 0.32s. Lets see what they're like and if they'll dethrone my default option of Geoffs super precision.
  2. Have discovered the exciting world of hi capa modification. Oh boy this'll hurt the MasterCard.

      Save both the frustration and disappointment, go straight to the Elite Shooting Centre, and tell Mr Mike Cripps what you want. Easy!

      @trojan1106 where's the fun in building it up though then?

  3. Sounds good. Effective range you'd likely get another 20-30m out of it, especially with heavier ammo as well. Wouldn't worry about the .28s, likely over hopping them into next year lol. Sounds like it's really shaping up now.
  4. Seeing some sites opening in June. Surely this can't be right?

      Woodland sites in Scotland are just working out the finer details and then they are free to reopen.

      I read through the requirements outlined on the BBC for competitive sports and it included a requirement for testing facilities at the point of entry along with a myriad of other things which to me would indicate it's a bit of premature move. I guess it's just a case of "wait and see" but to be honest I can't see myself returning until things have settled considerably.

      As much as I want to play, I would be inclined to wait until it’s advised and likely to be back to normal. I get some places are able to host smaller groups etc but 3v3 or games with squads of 6 in a woodland setting do not appeal to me. 
      I think returning for the sale of returning early would cause more issues personally.

  5. TM is supposedly "nicer" quality but if you rip most of the internals out then copy all the way. You can use a TM in it's standard form with just a TDC and get superb results.
  6. I'll be super angry if the stti is wide enough. I have a 133 in my stti and drilled my asg to get the 150 in. If I could have swapped I'll be annoyed, not going to try it for my own sanity. 8mm drill bit but you need to give it a bit of a wiggle to make sure, unused the standard barrel to test the gap rather than scratching up my bling.
  7. @MiK Quite a bit first time apart. I give mine a bit of top to bottom wiggle as well which normally helps. It'll ease up after a few separations.
  8. @MiK Looking good, only adjustment I would personally make is swapping the MR hop for an Autobot. The MR has some sealing issues and side by side there is virtually no difference from the Autobot in terms of accuracy (and the auto has been around a while and is a very trusted platform). There is an argument to try a 70 or 75 shore bucking as well. I personally run a 75 in my VSR and it's always been spot on but fully understand why a softer rubber can help. For the price maybe keep a 60 MR and take a punt on the crazy forum guy spouting about 70/75 autobots? ***Do hope we'll get some pics and progress/build pics.
  9. @MiK, There are 2 diameters used for VSR parts. The "normal" which is to suit a spring with inside diameter 7mm and outside diameter 11mm. This is what Laylax, Action Army and a few others use. There is also the wider 9mm inside and 13mm outside which is mostly used by PDI and AirsoftPro. Wider spring means in theory it is easier to pull. Recent snipers, namely SRS and SSG share spring dimensions and the Rapax 2J is your "go to" elite tier option. They are best fit, tightest tolerance and consistent from coil to coil and don't loose as much power over their life. The 2 sizes aren't cross compatible bit ASP did do a trick where they provided a sleeve for their spring guide so you could use either spring (but they provide the wider in their kits now).
  10. This person was flagged up a few pages back. Either a site owner or event organiser as there was recently a thread about some ideas for games (it was a link by me but I've been to sleep since then).
  11. If you end up in a position to use an APS2 width spring, go for a Rapax 2J all day long. Then just shim or shorten to suit.
  12. First hand advice, be careful with your nozzle return spring. I went to stretch mine as explained on the onmymk site and was a touch heavy handed. The 2" spring is now 2 feet and tied up in a knot in the bin. Have had to order a Wii tech upgrade from skirmshop.nl to replace it. Blooming postage is more than the part!
  13. Perfect that mate 😍. The spring may bed down a little as it hasn't been used for a while but you're right where you want to be. Just need lockdown to do 1 so we can go play.
  14. This just means that even with hop off you are still just contacting the BB so there is enough resistance to stop them rolling out. FPS increasing as you add hop is normal as the seal improves. With your barrel you should look into 0.46 or 0.48s 🤓
  15. @leadly I am sat here with my AA M150 spring in it's packaging next to me. I can confirm it does NOT mention L96 anywhere on the packet. Down the left hand side it is clearly marked as "VSR10 M150 POWER SPRING". I've looked and it looks like AA do different springs for L96 and VSR so there is a chance they have sent the wrong one. Mine is sat unused and unloved and wants a new home though.....
  16. I'm in love with my new 4.3 Capa 😍

  17. The AA is supposed to be quite vsr compatible but I haven't owned one. I have read that people have slight little issues and as the rifle isn't as popular as the vsr then you can have difficulty finding help. Getting into tinkering is the best way, it's best to know how to fix stuff than be the guy wandering round safe zone asking for help. If you're up for the build VSR GSPEC all the way, do your research and take your time.
  18. You beauty! Thank you. I've been looking for that for so long as I'm just starting a second Mk23 build and wanted to see if there were any other "easy" mods to do.
  19. Could you link this mythical group? I cannot find it for the life of me.
  20. And now my G18C needs to fly the nest (link) 😢

      Trying to standardize my rigs, opted to go with the Hi-capa as I have a 5.1 and a 4.3 on the way. The G18 is great and it's nice it's lighter than the Capa's but I just prefer the capa.

      And just like that, it has gone. I will feel bad for the rest of the day but then tomorrow excitement as the new toy is hopefully shipped.

      got one off here a while back but whereabouts did you get that pouch sir?

      Erm....I think it was an Amazon job. I forget the name of it and it's now boxed up and on it's way to the new owner. I know it was only marketed as a 40mm holder looked like it would do the job, woudl probably remember the name if I saw it.

  23. It's super simple. Good flat file and half an hour and you're golden. **Check your PM's
  24. Should mention, the 303mm is bridged where the 430mm isn't (referencing the Laylax PSS barrels). If you run an Autobot or similar you will need to remove the bridge with a file. Spring; https://www.bullseyecountrysport.co.uk/action-army-vsr-10-bar-10-m150-sniper-spring-21863-p.asp
  25. 16" sport outer barrel and suppressor stabiliser for my SRS. Will run my faceless 509mm barrel in it for a "winter" setup. Chuffed that the dtss is direct fit to it.
