  1. Like @Rogerborg said, play a couple of games with different rentals. And ask player if you can shoot a couple of bbs with their replicas ( most of us will happily let you do so ) I was going to buy a steyr aug for my first RIF, because it looked so cool, tried it, turns out i hate the ergonomic of that particular replica, it’s entirely personal, biased and it can be a very decent pew pew. But i would have sunk a couple of 100s in a replica that does not fit me. Same with the Svd, looked cool, the gun is 120cm and I am 170, not exactly the best for mobility as a dmr. You are likely going to build your loadout and your play style around your first replica, so try a couple before committing, you might be more of an AK or G36 user than M4.
  2. Be careful, even if it is not in the terms like for UPS, getting a refund when/if they return the replica is a real uphill battle. And they can refuse it because they do not understand the legality of it. Talking from experience. I would advise in your ad to specify you only sell to uk buyers. They refused to ship a replica to France despite the fact airsoft in france in only limited to the age of the purchaser.
  3. Some answers - M4 Platform Have you looked at VFC, they are more known for their hk 416 but it is close to an M4, and i keep my hk416 as a spare in care my gbbr craps out. Krytac are not bad but i believe they have some proprietary stuff ( dont take my word for it) Specna does some decent stuff and is better value than the previous brands i quoted, i’d stay away from marui recoil if you want recoil, go gbbr - 350FPS for UK sites - shoot .28 / .30 for woods and wind/range Whatever replica you get, make sure you can install a good standard hop up chamber, put in a harder nub, and while you’re at it, why not get a nice barrel, Maple leaf are good, prommy can be excellent but some qc issues, PDI used to be a good standard, lots of threads on those subject online Good hop/barrel set up will matter more for range and accuracy than fps, everyone will confirm - Mainly semi-auto... possibly some full auto but not bothered about giga RPS. Tend not to be a sprayer. keep the auto function on your rif, sometimes it can be fun to “get your gun off” if the site allows and you’re not magdumping someone - Reliable Everyone will have different experience and opinion on that. Have you considered hpa with a kythera which does semi only and put a co2 adapter in the stock so you dont have to deal with the line, that’ll be more reliable than a gearbox, and silent, or a mtw wolverine with wraith stock, it’ll cost but i havent hear anyone say anything bad about those yet. - Lightweight / polymer body. That’s not neccessary, get a well balanced rif, lighter rail at the front ( ex: change your picatinny to a keymod ) and use a correctly set up two point sling - Mixed woods/CQB... do it all You’ll probably want a barrel at most 14.5 inch ( m4a1 length ). I would not go under 10 inch barrel ( MK18 or m4 cqbr) but that’s personnal preference, i dont want my rifle to have a smaller barrel than a pistol ( although i like the arps from g&G and the arp 556 could really be a good fit looking at your requirements ) - Short/shorter style rifle maybe best for use? (do it all) Get a 10 in barrel, put in a pdw stock, or an arp 556 - not too sure on batteries but 11.1v lipo sounds nice Cant see why that would be neccessary, but i’ll let someone else take this one -I wear a DYE i4 mask and would like to continue to. I understand I may need an adaptor for the stock I would advise a raised red dot, and you won’t need stock adaptor, and it looks tacticool ( it’s my next purchase ) Finally, you like diy and teching yourself, let me save you some grief, if you ignore the rest, make sure to pay attention to this: DO NOT open your gearbox on your main replica if you do not have a spare rif. If you put it back wrong ( and that’ll happen, that’s a when, not an if ) you cant play, you risk ruining other bits, and turn your 6mm war machine into a paperweight
  4. Good day at Gunman Airsoft in Tuddenham. I got to try my new ( new to me ) MWS, and GBB are cool, but it is gonna take me some time going from a standard 200 bb midcap down to 35 per mag. They had a filsim theme event, and it is a nice change of pace to have the objectives being more complex than just “ shoot bbs at the other team”. I liked the site, and the marshall team was good. Had a good game with the green team, good team play, good collab. I am gonna need a day or two for my legs to recover but i will definitely go again.
  5. Arp9 or any smaller smg could be good. Also could be worth trying a two point sling, it will change how the load is distributed.
  6. Sorry to hear about the pain, one thing that works well me is to put a second layer underneath the clothes, i got one of those really close fit - sweat wicking tshirts, almost a rashguard. You ‘ll still feel the hit, but the second layer does a good job of stopping the skin from breaking and i sweat way less than with full plates. Hope this helps
  7. Actually, it's HK 416 replacing the famas, so VFC gbb ?
  8. @DanBowWelcome to the hobby first of all. Always good to get new people shooting bbs 🙂 Dont feel like you need to upgrade just because it is a starter ( and ignore the brand snobs ), so long as you are having fun with it. As someone who started in the early 2000’s, starter aeg have come a really, really long way, they are highly playable and enjoyable.

    Selling Krytac CRB Mark 2 in fde, it is the Mlock version. Grip viewed in picture is included and I have one mini Mlok to standard rail adapter as well as a QD sling mount point on the barrel. It is stock because i have never needed to upgrade it as it has a rotary hop up unit. I changed the spring to around 330 fps with 0.20 as i played CQB ( it is a quick spring change so you can put whichever spring you want for your field limits without opening the gearbox) The hop up will lift a 0.28 which is what i mostly use. ( no sure for heavier bb) Has only been used with Lipo 7.4 I can ship with Hi Cap or Mid Cap, as you prefer It has a some minor paint scratch on the body ( can be seen in picture ) due to having been used I do not have the original box. Can throw in Magpul CTR clone stock in matching color Postage with Parcelforce 48 to uk mainland is included in this price. OK for swap, looking for: Kythera for V2 with Co2 Stock with adapter CGS or wraith or Marui Hi Capa ( can complete swap with payment to match value

  11. Battle Stations this sunday in Snetterton close to Norwich. First time trying a Chest rig instead of battle belt, quite liked it. And i am never playing without prescription insert again for the safety glasses. Cracking field by the way and good marshall team.
  12. @Cannonfodder Nope, 🤣 🤣 just taking the piss on that whole youtube genre. I actually hate how they represent the hobby, and i was looking for some youtube tutorials and as soon as you type airsoft in the search bar, here they come !!

    Ares m110k

    Hello, Can the Hive Mind help me price this ? I am afraid I might have overpriced this, and i am sort of hoping to let it go fast-ish so i can buy parts for another build I am working on. If it is not a price issue, can you confirm if i omitted some important information ? Ares M110k It is the short version of the SR25 platform from Ares Ref is SR-006-E so it has the EFCS Link to manufacturer http://www.aresairsoft.com/guns/m110 The programmable box is functionnal Replica is stock. Comes with: 3 mags - Midcap Ares Electronic Programmer included. QD sling mounts and scope mount It shoots around 336 fps with 0.25. Please note that the selector is snapped of on one side, i have not fixed this, but is functional on the other side Looking 300 with posting included to the UK mainland ( with tracking ofc ) - Pick up possible around Suffolk - Ipswich This is a good replica, i just dont need a second DMR. I am open to swap, not sure what i am looking for, feel free to suggest ( NO HPA unless mechanical and with CO2 conversion )
  14. But Maybe they are right and you might find yourself in a youtube video titled “AIRSOFT CHEATER WONT TAKE THEIR HITS until i go close to them and revenge killed by headshot with my HPA shooting 13 000 bbs per second” And then you’d have to move to a different county and change you name and loadout to escape the burning enduring shame
  15. +1 on what @Tommikka said for clear to amber lens Face pro and lights: I would advise mesh because i dont want to show up to work with bbs impact on my face. Flashlight have the added benefits of looking tacticool so i have one on my replica even in full day light For the long gun vs cqb, dont get a replica before you know if you like cqb, the added challenge could make the game more fun, consider playing one or two round with just your secondary if you have one. I used to play at the mall in Readin, and a couple of time i went with full length m16 and hi capa, and it was good fun,
