I saw a brand new airsofter get an Ares L1A1 with wood stock two toned...

Typhoon Airsoft were having 50% off Accessories and Tac gear. Picked up the following half price. Tokyo Marui M92F / M9 GBB Magazine Tokyo Marui FN 5-7 Magazine Abbey Predator Maintenance Gas 144a (270ml) Abbey Silicone Gun Oil (150ml Spray) ASG Blaster 0.20g BBs (NEW 3300 Bottle) 2x Element QD Swivel NUPROL SHOTGUN SHELL PACK (4PC) I dont even have a TM FN 5-7, but the mags are typically quite expensive and I do intend to get one at some point in the future!

£750, Comes with leaky mags, or you could buy brand new from Gunfire for 650 quid inc VAT. DSR-1 Sniper Rifle Replica - Black-Silver - shop Gunfire

Purchased a 3D Printed Rotary Tavor Hop unit for my S&T/Umarex Tavor. Tavor Rotary Hop-up Unit Gen 2 (EM7GFXQEQ) by benwadeburgess (shapeways.com) The original is so cheaply made, gears missing teeth, and the arm has an odd design that just cannot give me enough hop for more then .25's. (Though is accurate enough) It's one of my favourite RIFS so it gets the Rotary treatment.

Yeah I know its terrible... But I got it for a good price! Coming from China so will be a while, especially with CNY going on. MAG M249 NutSack mag (I think it was mispriced so likely wont get it) Maple Leaf Crazy Jet 410MM for my SRS Asura Dynamics RK-3 AK Pistol Grip

Cant be arsed with the mucking around I have to do with the SRS Fast hop. So purchased Kraken Ultimate hop unit for SRS Kraken 60 degree spare rubber Crazy Jet 133mm Mk23 Inner barrel.

Decided to do a large import from HK. 3x Cyma SVD 80 RD Mid Caps. Already got 6 mids and 3 highs. But my Smersh can hold 12 mags so! 1x Cyma P90 gearbox Spring set 1x 5KU ZenitCo A-1 Sling Swivel mount 1x 5KU Zenitco PT-3 AK stock for E&L (Cause the PT-1 that arrived was for LCT and I think on hindsight the PT-3 will look better with the VS-24) 1x 5KU Zenitco PK-6 (The tiniest Foregrip) A bunch of Keymod to Picatinny adapters 1x Pro Win P90 Hop unit (Mangled my original Pro-win one.) 2x Prommy purple. 9 dollars 50 is quite cheap.

I believe it was Airsoftworld. Their tech said the quality was shocking.

I have two XM8s and they are perfectly fine rifles!

The SRC Steel MP5 is pretty nice!

A balanced 16 TPA with high speed gears wont give you the ROF you want and will be somewhat inefficient. I suggest a 22TPA high torque if you want 13:1s.

2 days in and I am proud I havent bought anything yet!

I could say that of the vast majority of Airsoft related shops However in this case I don't doubt what they say is true.

Interesting from Airsoft World.

Pretty certain I have finally ascertained that my Fast hop is to blame for my problems since purchasing my A2 in April. My shots were always off. Never centre, Despite numerous nubs and bucking's. The nub never seemed straight. Silverback kept telling me to follow the installation video (Of course that's what I used!) and anyone who commented on my help posts blamed my installation. Ordered Adventure Stan's Barrel Alignment Tool to see what's up. As you can see, it's either the Inner part of the Fast hops BB Feed tube cut is not in the right place, or the outer part of the fast hop does not align with the inner. Adventure Stan's tool makes sure the inner barrel, bucking and fast hop is perfectly straight. So I can only conclude it is a badly produced fast hop. This happens on all bucking's and nubs I have tried. If I twist either the inner barrel or outer part of the hop unit then the nub is no longer centred and just as useless. We'll see what Silverback say, I just wish I didn't have to fork out the money to prove my theory right!

Yeah I am good for it! Just need to wait til I get paid 😄

After promising myself not to buy anything else this year, saw that a particular forum member put up a lovely G&G F2000 Tri rail for sale for 50 roubles. A no brainer.

Aye'. This happens all too often! We've visited some great sites this year. All a little bit too far for regular visits!

Site Name: Invicta Battlefield Contact details: 07876 263290 Website Address: www.invictabattlefield.co.uk Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/Invictabattlefield Site Address: Pook Hill Farm, Wilden Park Road, Staplehurst, Kent, TN12 0HP I'm back! After a brief stint visiting sites I had already reviewed, it was time to go to somewhere different! The latest site that @Albiscuit and I visited is Invicta Battlefield in Kent (06/12/2020). This site has been on my list of must visits for some time. It has glowing online reviews and a good community surrounding it. Due to its distance and difficulty in reaching the site, it had constantly been sent to the back of the visit queue, until today! The photos that I found of the playing area were few, but showed a large tower and bunker setup which looked very interesting. This is a small woodland site, which is incredibly undulating on the length of one side and a flattish road on the other. It being winter there was very little foliage around, though the area to the far right and on the Safe Zone side did still have some greenery. The ground was covered in leaves which hid large branches and holes, the ground was quite slippery throughout. There were many buildings through the site. Due to the thickness of the woodland and undulating terrain, sight lines were quite close and as such this is predominantly a short to medium engagement distance type of site, with some notable exceptions. Good: Playing Area: Invicta has very good variety for a site as small as it is. It has pretty much everything you could want to wish for in terms of natural features. It's tough going, but rewarding if you can sneak around the back of the enemy. There were many buildings including a small valley with a large cabin/bunker building which is overlooked on all sides. Overlooking the bunker on two sides are a Checkpoint area and Bunker section. This area, whilst very tough on people trying to get to the Bunker, is very well executed. The main attraction of "Invicta" is "Invicta", the name given to the large tower and village/barricade complex. This is an imposing structure overlooking a clearing in the woodland. It's a tricky complex to attack, which requires multiple attempts and angles. It's a great selling point to the site and we were slightly disappointed we didn't get to do small team CQB at the end of the day inside it! Shop: Platoon stores run the shop on site and is very well stocked in Tac gear, rifles, pistols, gas and BBs. Food: As part of the £30 entry, you get a free breakfast, of which there are vegetarian options! Al opted for the Egg in a bun and a cup of tea. For me, not liking egg and not eating pork I was given a hash brown AND they managed to dig up a couple of veggie sausages for me! I had a very hearty breakfast. Lunch was more typical, with burgers, chips and what not, Al got essentially a box of filth (In a good way) full of food. It was a stomach stretching meal, though it was somewhat expensive. Safety Brief: Was pretty good and explained everything quite well. People listened, I had no queries or qualms and only a few site regulars interjected with poor jokes. So it's good! Clientele: Due to social distancing Al and I had an area to ourselves, so not the usual safe zone banter, but we did find some space at lunch to have a distanced natter. Lots of regulars who were on first name basis with the marshals. Its a real good community feel. We had roughly 30-35 players today, which apparently is quite a poor turn out. I heard very little to no moaning throughout the day. (Apart from Al and I!) Safe Zone: The area was quite compact much like the site itself, it was right next the car park, the shop, marshall area, chrono station and set up areas were within a few seconds walk of each other. All of the set up areas had a roof, some had lights for when it got dark. It was almost full, so I think on a normal days turnout it would be overrun, so a possible expansion should be considered. Marshalling: SO MANY MARSHALS. it might have been the reduced player numbers, but there were marshals everywhere you looked! Loads in the safezone, at 4 in the field. They were professional, pushed the teams they were shadowing and dealt with any issues. Average: Game Modes: Were fairly basic, mostly defend and attack games throughout the day. It worked quite well and probably takes the small size of the site into account, however it would have been nice to see some fall back games, maybe an escort mission etc. Value: £30 with Breakfast. Maybe slightly more expensive then average for the size of the site. Chrono: A mandatory chrono was in play. Guns were NOT marked, but the FPS was noted against your registration number. I would prefer the guns to marked as anyone could switch out during the day without being noticed. AEGs 350fps, DMRs 450fps, Bolties 500fps and a 25 metre engagement distance was in play for the latter two. Turn around time: Was reasonable. 5 minute warnings to go back out turned into 10 minute warnings. About average. We didnt feel cheated out of our time. Hit taking: There were some issues with hit taking during the day. There was one particular player at the end of the day in the CQB mini games that seemed to be made of teflon and he had to be told multiple times by marshals that he had been shot out (Tracers for the win!). BUT it really was not that bad from the vast majority of players. So putting this in "average". Car Park/Entrance: Quite muddy and a tight turn on the driveway up to the safezone. Reasonable sized Car park. Bad: Toilets: A single portaloo that I saw. Really needs more then one. I cant comment on the cleanliness as I didn't use it. Conclusion: We came away from the day with slightly different experiences. I had quite a niggling day in terms of equipment and personal performance so I was feeling a little downhearted, but could definitely see the site was pretty good. @Albiscuit himself was very very pleased with what he saw and had a whale of a time. I had the most fun defending the checkpoint and the CQB centric games. So in conclusion. I was expecting a far larger site going by what I was hearing from other players and photos online, but It's a compact site that fills a lot in, it's hard going in the mud so you get a workout and the buildings are very good. I reckon it would be worthwhile returning to the site in the summer to see how the woodlands bloom! Bullpup Watch: Only my PDR-C and F2000 😕
