  1. I had been booked up for back to back skirmishes next weekend. Bit of a kick in the teeth for the government to only just put out new guidance for it now. Odd that Airsoft was the example used, either too many people asked them the question or as is being touted on Social Media, some of the recent "idiots that ended up in the media" highlighted airsoft. Edit: UKAPU has weighed in. Shut it down folks! 😞
  2. They haven't sent RIFs abroad for at least a year now. German law means they require German approved proof of age and photograph to sell. A passport doesnt cover it according to them.
  3. So the refund through Paypal has been cancelled I am now down £210 😕 I have emailed the retailer this morning asking what's up. No response as of yet.
  4. Is that a Tropentarn vest where dya get it? Sadly I couldn't find one for my Tropentarn loadout and my G36 mag pouches are tricolour desert instead.
  5. PPS XM26 Mass Shell Ejecting shotgun. Its not a Scar. Its the Italian Gucci Scar AKA ARX160!
  6. Italian Gucci camo and Tactical Flannel. I look well 'ard Hope you like the toilet.
  7. Ordered some original Russian uniforms from DGBakery. (At great expense) 2007 FSB Government Contract Sniper Suit 56/58-6 SOBR Black Moss Suit with Patches.
  8. Out of interest did they charge you Italian sales tax at their end?
  9. By SHS High Torque. What do you mean? They advertise the 16TPA one as High Torque, but in actuality it is more "balanced". A 16TPA Motor will struggle with 12:1 gears. It's more suited to 18:1 and 16:1.
  10. Its a gear day rather then a RIF day! Invader Gear Revenger BDU Italian Vegetato Invader Gear Revenger BDU Combat Trouser Italian Vegetato Invader Gear Flannel Ubacs in Blue Invader Gear Boonie Bush hat in Vegetato x2 Viper Shotgun Cartridge holder MFH Large Radio pouch in Green Z-Tactical Xo29 Bowman style Headset Evo 3 Z-Tactical TCI PTT Z114 I really hope the sizing of the clothes is correct for me!
  11. Good news! Plugged my F2K in for the first time since November and the Perun ETU+++ Mosfet appears to be dead, no lights, no signs of life. The stock G&G one still works... but its not the same! :(

      @Steveocee Jakub at Perun has sorted me out. Sending me a replacement after showing him a few photographs. He and the others at Perun seem quite disturbed as to what happened as they haven't seen it happen before with the ETU!

      I was already a big fan of Perun before. (I am credited with turning Luke at Negative onto them when I sent in my XM8 with one to fit). But even more so now!

      respect to jakub and perun, always happy to help me whenever I have any issues.

  12. So a retailer had me over on a Nikko Stirling Mountmaster scope. Was told it was back ordered till about October despite being told 14 days on ordering. Asked for my money back, I just picked up a heavily used Phillipino Simmons Whitetail Classic 3.5-10x50 for a little over 50 quid. The air rifle forums seem to like them so hoping for good things on my SRS.
  13. Change the barrel to a tight bore 6.01mm to get some more free FPS which doesn't strain the gearbox. Change bucking to a Prommy Purple and a large nub to lift heavier bbs. See how it performs after that.
  14. Why did you start airsoft? Always been interested in FPS gaming, came across gameplay footage of an LMG users on YouTube whilst at work. Looked into it further and booked in my first game a couple of months later. What do you like about airsoft? Collecting comes first, I like the weird and wonderful. A close second is visiting lots of different sites, I like to get a breadth of knowledge about hobbies. To be that "unique" guy is a narcissistic trait I haven't been able to shake. What don't you like about airsoft? This kind of sounds bad, but Airsofters in general. There is alot of cringworthy aspects to airsofters which just turn me away. The Glamsofters being one. Also due to the nature of the sport you tend to get a few gun toting crazies who are just a little bit too intense to probably be playing. As a musician I have a similar problem, the biggest issue with playing in a band is having to play with other musicians. Massive egos colliding trying to hash out a result that no one is particularly happy about. Do you think airsoft has any health benefits? I look it at it like football, for general fitness on paper it looks great, but the risk of injury is quite large and you'll likely do yourself more long term damage playing the sport then not.
  15. In my opinion? No. It needs either a new receiver or rear sight block. As one of the two has been miss drilled.
  16. Lots of movement on my package. In the last 24 hours it cleared Poland, into Germany and straight back out to Stanford-le-hope. I now have these two messages with "Awaiting clearance" as the heading. To me it appears the messages are out of sequence. Otherwise, is the clearance agency different to customs agency? In Transit 18/03/2021 14:21 Stanford Le Hope, United Kingdom Your package may be delayed due to a required document inspection by the clearing agency. 18/03/2021 14:21 - Your parcel was released by the customs agency.
  17. It's a good question. I am unsure myself. I want an AMD-65, but wondering if just going with the Golden Eagle for £125 rather then the LCT for 309 is a better bet.
  18. I got my refund. So I'll be looking into getting another AK soon
  19. I did get most of the stuff I wanted in before Jan. However when gunfire is the only place on the planet that genuinely has sets of 5 PPS Shell Ejecting Gas Shells at a reasonable price, I had no choice and ordered knowing of the UPS issues. Edit: I can either get 2 shells for £13 not including postage in the UK. Or (At the time of purchase) Or 5 shells for just over £18 taking into account import fees from Gunfire. It's a no brainer.
  20. I rang UPS and asked if they accepted my fire arms declaration. All they could say is that they have received it, but has yet to clear customs. (Whether it is accepted is a different matter, it's been a week since I sent my Declaration back) Also asked if I'll get an Email from customs to pay the charge, they seemed to think I would pay on arrival. So slightly worried.
  21. I have always wanted one of them! Only reason why is that there is no chance of using it in a milsim. Though I do keep an eye out! Something about that gloryhole handguard. To me the AMD is the pinnacle of AK looks. Apart from a tarted up Zenitco 74n anyway. We'll see what the shop says tomorrow.
  22. Sadly the gearbox was perfectly shimmed and the underfolder mechanism was very very solid and stiff. It is a great AK if only it weren't pissed in multiple directions! I might just give in and either go for an AMD65 and hope for the best or just get an AR 😕
  23. I think at this point I'd rather cut my losses and return it. I understand that AK alignment is very funky. But its worse then most I have seen. To the point that its not really workable. 😕 such a shame as I got it for a great price.
  24. Dot mounted to the upper rail. Its an underfolder so no side rail. If there was I would be even more out! Its off the because the front gas tube bracket does not line up with the rear sight. Because of this its actually an absoloute nightmare to lock the handguard in because of the angle.
