  1. This was my big takeaway from it, especially after Neg Air's video on it using the internals to revive his old TMP. I'm tempted to get one just as a base for 3d printed builds
  2. Pretty sure it is, yeah. You do have the choice between an AEG or GBBR though which is nice
  3. I love my 1-4x vision sling short dot. I've used it a lot on a few different guns. The glass is decently clear, I'm sure if I splashed out on something better I'd see a big difference but it's clear enough to still ID targets into the evening. The red dot is super dim so I never use it. It's got a bit of a weird border round the edge of the sight picture when you look through it but it disappears when you're in game. I think it was part of a poor quality batch as it was £40, around half off. My experience of red dots and magnifiers is that you need to get the more expensive ones as the multiple layers of glass cause a much darker sight picture.
  4. If you're going down the magnifier route don't cheap out. The cheap mounts wobble making it impossible to aim when using the magnifier. The quality of the glass is important too. You're looking through 4 pieces of glass and if they're cheap each one will darken your sight picture. Have a look at the options from vortex
  5. I've seen IR versions being used with NVGs to make target acquisition easier at ranges past 100ft. Not sure how much use it would have in airsoft though. The hunting is a good point I wouldn't have thought of though
  6. It was looking a little naked. Still can't find a spare flash hider, pretty sure there's one in my dad's box of bits
  7. Picked up a CZ 805 Bren that could use some love. It's missing the muzzle device and a couple of screws but is otherwise solid. I had it less than an hour and I've already taken a knife to it to improve the cable management
  8. That's not saying a whole lot lol. I've heard real horror stories about the quality of the osprey kit.
  9. In my experience of viper kit, the part that fails is their stitching. I've only had a few bits of viper kit but when they've failed it's always been in a corner of the stitching. I'm guessing they're cutting costs on thread quality and saving time not reinforcing those parts.
  10. G&g are decent but they seem to be trying to push more into the premium price range for some reason with weird gimmicks. I totally forgot about Ares. I did work on my friend's honey badger. The suppressor was loctited on wonky, bending the shitty aluminium inner barrel, the bucking tore the first time he took it out and the motor had such weak magnets that it basically spun freely. The gears were ok at best and the piston was really cheap. The proprietary gearbox and FCU sucked and are notorious for cracking even in lower power builds. Secutor are literally just Ares marketed at twats and have all the same issues for a 20% price hike. I would personally never buy one, not even for cheap.
  11. I've had an SRC M4 AND RPK. Both are utter shit. They're heavy, poor build quality and below average internals. My M4 melted it's trigger contacts before I even managed to take it to a game. We and all of its rebranded variants are... inconsistent. Vfc are nice externals but average at best internals. I only buy them second hand or boneyard.
  12. That's the best option I've seen so far. Thanks!
  13. I was hoping for a repeat supplier. I use them to convert M4s to have folding stocks (I know I'm a heathen)
  14. Now that AliExpress has nuked most of its Airsoft stock I've found myself in a bit of a pickle. I can't find a cheap rs buffer tube anymore. I used to be able to get a buffer tube, castle nut, buffer and main spring for less than £15. Now the cheapest I can find from more conventional sites are closer to £40-£50 for just the tube (the castle nut is another £10-15). Anyone know where I can get a more sensibly priced one?
  15. I use the WAS holster with my HK usp compact and haven't had any issues with that
