    Yes but as above, this is a sniper so need an FPS advantage so bigger spring is a must.
  2. Steveocee
    Already got the PDI and faceless stuff ready to go. Just waiting on a V3 mouse fart (on its way now) and pom spacer rings. In 2 mind of Rhop or SBA 70 flat hop.

    I'm really missing Airsoft now ☹️

      I set up a shooting range in the Garden which entertained me for about 30 minutes. I even did John Wick / Taran Tactical moves and tried to snap shoot different targets...... I still only lasted half an hour.

      Same.

      I don't even have a garden to set up a shooting course :(

    Had 1 trip out with it and it didn't shoot any different but was significantly easier to move around. Hoping the better barrel and Rhop paired with better airbrake, spring and spacers will get it shooting a smidge better as well (once lockdown ends)
  5. Steveocee
    I'm hoping not to. Not gone for a tight barrel and hoping the long airbrake will take a good chunk off. I'm finding the 2J just isn't enough for what I want, if I ran without air brake it would likely be ok. Can lose weight off piston as well.

    Went for a .338 initially as it was only one in stock. I've now bought another .338 for my gspec outer as the length is useful as the inner protrudes into it a bit. Build has changed a bit from the above also. Now running PDI 6.05/380mm with faceless Rhop, FOW and 100% seal and have a Rapax 3J on order to use with long airbrake.

    Ghillie update. Day 2. Nobody warned me how boring this would be. Genuinely want to stab myself in the eye with my craft needle.

      This sounds about right... However, at the end remember that you'll have a pretty unique product that will properly stand out on the field... in the safe zone because no one will see you in the field ;) (because nobody makes their own ghillie these days because they can just buy a pre-made leaf suit and be done with it)

       

      It's worth it in the end. I'm doing mine too and it's hell. We'll get there eventually! xD

    3 Weeks odd to kill?? Just pulled the ghillie base and yarns out.

    1. Impulse

      Haha, we're in the same boat. Got a leaf suit, but I want a proper ghillie suit and I've had all the stuff for around 10 years now!

       

      What are you using for yours? I'm using hessian and a webtex concealment vest.

      This boat is rather large then.

      I have 2 systems to craft (leaf suit and viper hood)

    3. Steveocee

      @Impulse very similar boat.

      I'm using a modified webtex in that is been cut off at the back where the belt strap is and stitched so it doesn't fall apart then using Helikon ghillie fibres for the yarn, just like burlap only they won't go up in flames.

       

      Using a self threading needle to get the yarns into the base cloth to leave elastic free for foliage.

    Anyone else bored yet?

      I can still work :(

      which means being bored by default because I can only do a small portion of what I actually have to do.

       

      When I'm home I can't do anything because living in a flat sucks... I can only plink at a chimney on a roof 40m from my window but that's about it :(

      Not yet, servicing all the guns, garden plinking and giving the cars a serious clean inside and out should keep me busy for a good while. Then I'm sure The Boss will find me a few little jobs to do round the house ! Just hope I've got enough BBs to last 

      Oh and cruising the Gun porn on the interweb and compiling a huge wish list 🤣

    Just ordered a new radio. Baofeng BF8. Not really a change from the UV5 I have but itchy fingers and all that.
  11. Steveocee
    It's a TM so it gets amazing range with the stock hopup and bucking because of the magical TM dust.
  12. Steveocee
    I'm interested in the hi capa dude. Can you name a price please.
  13. Steveocee
    Gift receipts are your friend. All the product, none of the pricing lol

    Echoing others, if you read through a few pages you'll get the general tone of this thread. It's nothing personal at all. I did check your profile and then chose not to point out the inconsistency in that you've been on the site just over 1 year not nearly 2 as that would have come across pedantic and a little abrasive. Also the date you join a site means nothing, just means you registered, could have been playing 20 years prior, don't hide behind an "I'm a noob" shield, victimising yourself from the nasty man on the internet who lol'd at your price won't magically change anything. You will also notice that my following responses were aimed at being helpful advising alternative prices so maybe concentrate on the fact I did give some usable input rather than crying that I laughed at the original price. Typical response from the over self entitled of the social media generation.
  15. Steveocee
    That's fair enough but it is slightly unrealistic is to expect a second hand buyer to burden your initial "additional" outlay because it wasn't in stock so paid the rarity tax and you had to buy it in 2 tone when for barely anything more they can buy new in "real" colours now. As pointed out above, if you aim for around 60% of the CURRENT retail price you are probably in the right ball park. Congrats for not having a major diva strop though (many do) 😎
  16. Steveocee
    Brilliant, will easily hop .32's!
  17. Steveocee
    Shorter carbine version is still £299 on fire support though, the RRP is how much the weapon is NOW not what the receipt says. Receipt going with the RIF to prove warranty? Mmmm dunno how that would work, if it does great good news for the potential buyer. The fact it's ready to paint just means someones purposely taken the finish off, so yeah I think a new and real RIF wins there. Cross advertising? No, this is where people look to see who's being a little too ambitious with their pricing. Throw whatever tongue in cheek positive spin on that you will but you'll find it's not beneficial to your sale in the long run. The people in this thread discussing this are your ideal candidates for constructive criticism, we're not biased in your favour and we sure as hell won't be buying your overpriced goods so will happily advise you to get to a sensible price point 🙂
  18. Steveocee
    LMFAO they're £299 brand new with warranty. The balls some people have.
  19. Steveocee
    Just placed an order with X-Fire for a new PDI barrel. Good times.
  20. Steveocee
    When did Katie price get into Airsoft?
  21. Steveocee
    Its all the more fun pwning the milspec operators and watching their faces drop when they realise it's a 2 tone that did it.
  22. Steveocee
    Trolling me or have no grasp of sarcasm? This site is perfectly welcoming, join, converse, it's fine. Don't expect to join, list items for sale overpriced and everyone thank you for it. We look out for each other, people who get their threads mentioned either take the dose of reality and price realistically or have a fanny fit. Maybe if you'd gotten involved in a few conversations and got a feel for the community you'd have realised the worth of what you were selling and then not have tried to make yourself out the victim here.
  23. Steveocee
    Good luck with that.
  24. Steveocee
    But he "claims" it is running 530fps, so that's enough to tick the box of "leave the f**k alone". To be honest I'm more inclined to take your word for the FPS it is producing compared to the rest of the dribble in the ad but meh, you were picking him up yourself on these falsities not 5 posts ago lol.

    You've upgraded a dozen to higher than what our limits state we can use? Responsible.
