  1. So I got all the FN57 specific upgrade parts worth a damn. But I did spot this Nine ball Dyna Piston Head For M&P9/HK45/XDM-40/PX4/FN5-7 Gas BlowBack Pistol Series - Skirmshop Ireland LTD Any reason to get an upgraded Gas pistol Piston head? Is it for longevity and maximum seal? I am sure the seal I have now is fine.
  2. It's all terribly exciting right now. I now have all the constituent parts for a sleeper FN57. Basically all the FN57 specific upgrades, already got the non threaded non screwing up outer barrel. Now acquired Guarder Gen 2 slide and frame. The upgraded Hammer and recoil springs, specific inner barrel upgrade etc. Nice to get the Strike Warrior back up and running with a grip safety that's not split in half. I am seriously contemplating buying a second FN57, boneyard or otherwise and do a stupid build that won't fit in any holster.
  3. It was a standard walk on day. Most sites have a rule saying you cant shoot through something smaller then an A4 sheet of paper. Also many sites don't allow people to shoot with guns over their head. The thing is you're bringing up points that really have no bearing on this specific situation and only replying with a bit of "Whataboutery?". Some people say Airsoft is either supposed to be playing it as it's own sport and not following any traditional ideas of how a rifle would be used in real life, OR going full milsim and only playing with low caps. The right thing for me is somewhere around the middle, making play immersive but fun for the majority at the same time. I would hazard a guess that what the guy was doing in my scenario may not be against the rules of some sites, but is not the norm and is certainly going against the spirit of the game. I would like to think most people would agree with me. But I couldn't speak for them.
  4. I never said it was necessarily a safety issue, but imagine if everyone did the same thing? I dont think he could see where his barrel was pointing because it was waving above his head, sure right direction, but at what elevation? The point is you should have something showing to be shot at, it keeps games flowing. Gun hits are not a thing on many sites. No problem with snipers on the ground mostly hidden. At least they are using the rifle in a realistic way, knowing exactly where the barrel is pointing and not being completely hidden.
  5. The "Average" Airsofter. Either way, at least I explained it in my ad. I just hope I get some decent money for them! Funnily enough I am selling them to get some PTS G36 mags which don't have couplers anyway.
  6. In truth I am pretty good with a dremel. Probably make it look professionally done. Edit: To be honest, anyone who hasn't used a G36 for an extended period of time, will probably call it broken. Anyone who HAS used a G36 platform, will know exactly what I am talking about and be more forgiving.
  7. Maybe I should brazen it out and say "Customised so the couplers don't get caught up in your webbing like they always do!" I reckon most G36 users do cut them off anyway...
  8. This. Though admittedly it's hard to price some things up. Case in point my practically "unused" set of 6 G&P Mid cap G36 mags, never used in a skirmish, no scratches, dents or otherwise. Considered the best traditional G36 style mag out there. Cost £17 per mag from any shop that has them in stock right now... Issue? I coupled them all together for storage, and of course like all G36 mags, the couplers break when separated. It immediately falls in value despite never been used in a skirmish. So have now priced them at essentially less then a tenner each. It's hard for me to go any lower then that, but I can see why someone would ask for higher because of how all the G36 couplers will fail in short order anyway... The fact it happened before being sold is just a harsh reality! I would like to think I price my stuff quite nicely though. And my stuff generally does sell. But it gets harder when it comes to the even more niche stuff, you have to wait for the right buyer (specialist in odd things) to come along who knows it's a good deal. But to the average M4 multiglammer it means nothing.
  9. The more you buy and sell, the more you notice. It's prevalent in any second hand selling of any kind unless there are contracts in place (Ebay.... And even then!). It is especially prevalent in non essential hobby classifieds (If I may be stereotypical here). Airsoft, Guitars, RC Cars, Gaming. Full of flakes and dreamers who either don't have the money, patience and/or people skills. It's one of the reasons that I have to take a big deep breath before I put anything up for sale and have to be in the mood to deal with the above. Also one of the reasons why I almost never buy second hand stuff myself, I find it difficult to trust peoples descriptions.
  10. I had an argument with someone about this a year ago at Mayhem. I was being shot at by someone who had a rifle above their head over a bush, but their head was behind the bush. They claimed they could see through the bush. I complained to the marshal who agreed it should be aimed down the sights of the rifle. But another marshal said the opposite and neither wanted to mediate and get involved. The guy who shot me decided that because safety brief didn't specifically explain this circumstance to anyone. He could see me, so it must be fine. So in the end it it meant I have a very small chance of hitting them through the bush and they gained an unfair advantage. The site you played at may have stopped hip firing, trying to solve the same issue I had. The average Airsofter can be pretty stupid and it's best to have a simple single rule, then attempt to explain what I experienced above. Some rules that sound overbearing to us, are in response to Airsofters that have pushed the boundaries (And the spirit) of the more lax rules that existed before. Not because marshal's are trying to be arses. Hip firing I have no problem with.
  11. Hey guys. Got some practically unused G&P midcaps. Essentially the best trad G36 mags you can get. Never been Skirmished and as such are scratch and dent free, however some of the coupling prongs have snapped (as per usual on G36 mags) I was thinking for 6 of these at £60 posted would be a fair price. What do you think?

    Decided to put Airsoft on the back burner for a while and clear out some of my more esoteric rifles. I have gone full on AK/Russki Recently, so don't see these getting a look in anytime soon. ICS L85 SHS/Rocket Green Neo High torque motor Perun Mosfet Guarder clear bucking ZCI 450mm Inner barrel New Cutoff Lever and Selector Gear. Wired to Deans. In good condition, slight oxidation on the engraving. Used for 3 Skirmishes max. Gearbox has been nicely shimmed. This RIF was built for heavy weight ammo in mind. from .30 and over. As such it will overhop any bb weight under .30 (.28 is fine if you like a well hopped .28!) I would MUCH prefer collection from my house in Dagenham/London. I can travel to you within the London area as well. I may post at buyers expense (£16 via PF48) if I have enough packing material at the time, so just message me. Very firm on price. No haggling Ta. Please see video below for proof of operation.

    Hello all. I have this single E&L Bakelite AK Mid Cap magazine. Came with a rifle, but went the black mag route so this was never used beyond a quick functionality test. Has minor storage marks. £8 posted.

    Hello all. I have these four M4 High Cap mags owned from new. Practically all the marks on them are through storage, all four have probably only been used for a couple of skirmishes each. Two are branded ICS Mags that retail at around 20-25 quid. £15 Posted.

    Hello all. I have these two modified Mag brand M16vn Straight mags. They had been modified to go into a receiver that required the mags to have a shorter spring housing (See photos). These work a charm in any M4 mag compatible rifle I have tried them in. Most marks on the mags have been from storage, only used for a couple of games max three or four years ago. £12 posted to mainland UK for the two.

    These are already up for sale and I put them up at 118 posted. In decent condition externally with no major scratches or dents. Think that's about the right pricing? I rarely sell mags. Let alone relatively high end ones. Cheers! R

    Hello all. I have 9 working 150rd PTS EPM Mags in good used external condition plus 1 for spares and repair. (The spares and repair one works and feeds, but the plastic spring guide has broken internally and has been bodged to work) They feed fine in all my m4 mag compatible rifles. They are already boxed up and ready to go, just need to put an address on it. £118 including tracked postage to mainland UK.

    Hello all. Going full Marui on my MK23 mags so my last remaining ASG one is for sale. It's only been used in three skirmishes. Has usage marks as can be seen in the photos. I have widened the BB channel slightly to allow for reloading the Marui way. Has a 100% gas seal and is always filled with Predator Maintenance gas between skirmishes. £17 FIRM posted.

  20. Cheers folks. I have some measurements. It's definitely different in design, but maybe the dimensions are the same? Comparing it against some of my other pistols, it's not compatible with MK23 as it's took big. Hi Capa ones have protrusions on them. So maybe a Glock style one would do the trick? Maple leaf Hopup Wheel For G series / M&P / 92Series Pistol - Skirmshop Ireland LTD ML Claims this one should be compatible which is also for Glocks.

    Hello all. I have had to relist this after it was purchased by someone on Ebay, only checking to see whether it would fit their rifle after the fact. I have this brand new Lonex V2 gear ox which I bought new for a project that never happened. It is of fantastic quality, includes Tappet Plate, Selector Plate, Bearings and screws. £37 posted to the UK. No haggling ta!

  22. Hey all. Simple question. Are all the Marui hop unit wheels the same? I managed to ruin my M9 US one and now the slot for the arm is too deep at the max setting which means the minimum setting hops more! I see lots of Maple Leaf Hop wheels for sale for different TM models, but they all seem to by the same to me. Cheers!
  23. Problem is the AK21 retail price is overblown as these are regularly discounted in any sale to around £170 new. This doesn't look to be in the greatest condition either. I'd say 100 if you want to shift it.
