  1. I'd add to all the above advice: Buy a decent £200 starter AEG to get a feel for the game (Its quite different to paintball in many ways) When you've played a few games you'll have a better idea of the style of gameplay you want to get into. You'll also talk to other peeps and seen what they run. This will help you decide what to get in the future. If you still have any HPA stuff then that might be the best option for you and your first AEG will become a good backup. So start slow and build your gear as you build experience otherwise you risk wasting a lot of money.
  2. I've got one too. Slightly different fuse info but same colour. Can't remember where I got it 🤪 Its the US MK2 M21 'Pineapple' grenade made from 1918-1969 The fuse it a practice one so legal to own. Yeah, use it as a paperweight but I careful dropping it in case it damages the floor 😆 Edit: just found this: G&G Armament - MK2 Hand Grenade Replica BB Bottle | Patrol Base UK
  3. I agree. More likely photoshop than AI. 'AI generated' is just the social buzzword for anything faked at the moment.
  4. Yeah like many, I saw some of his vids when I first searched about airsoft (he's been a wanker for a long time) Honestly his videos put me off playing for quite some time because it looked like it was full of wankers with the good toys picking on on the new players and just acting like shits. I eventually had a go when my son wanted to try it and found there were actually decent people there. Now I know Licking Cumstain is a perfect example of the many youtube wankers doing shit just for the view count. Don't give him or any of em any views
  5. Yeah could be. Or they all copied TM 😆
  6. I found that my Vorsk VP-26x (P226 based) is compatible with WE P226 mags so if you don't find any Vorsk mags then have a look at equivalent WE ones.
  7. Just look into what's happening over there and see for yourself...
  8. Yes, I saw a video explaining about China's 'special' rates because it classes itself as an 'emerging economy' I believe all the low stock is due to all the problems China has been having in the last few years. Covid lockdown was an utter disaster for the economy and then the sudden 'back to normal' when it wasn't eradicated caused millions of deaths. (Their vaccine didn't work at all) Then the floods this year. And their economy is seriously tanking I think it'll be a long while before stock goes back to previous levels.
  9. Ouch 😫 Luckily many Vorsk parts are compatible with WE Only place I can think that has spares is: WE Pistols (GBBP) - Parts (kyairsoft.com) But you'll have to find the equivalent WE hammer The gas router should be a standard part for WE mags too.
  10. I had their Sten and currently have their Enfield. They're certainly not the best but similar to others like Bell, A&K, AGM or WELL.
  11. Probably not with the RMR in the middle. It might be possible to add a velcro strip to allow room at the mid point but you'd have to experiment with it. Its probably your best bet
  12. 330fps is good so you shouldn't try to increase as it could go over site tests. (fps test do vary so yours may measure differently to theirs) If you really want to tinker, as Lozart said, better barrel and hop rubber may result in more consistent shot groups.
  13. Mine have the cheaper pin arrangement. Are there screws to take it off? Otherwise just spray some oil in and try to wiggle it out with a pin or something.
  14. The 209 BFG (Dynatex Timed Delay BFG) are good and the cheapest option to use (about 8p per bang) but I only use mine for close clearing like dropping through a window or rolling into a room so I can find and retrieve it quickly. As mentioned before, these cannot be thrown far and can be lost/stolen. (I have painted mine with bright colours to be easily found/identified) I don't trust the impact grenades as I've seen them fail to detonate quite a few times in woodland games. Enola Geyes (Airsoft Grenades and Smoke Bombs | Enola Gaye) MK-5 are the most common pyro for full throwing and most sites sell them. Their smokes are also good and commonly sold on site. Of course you'll find them online for better prices. You just have to prove you're over 18 to purchase. Same goes for the 209 blanks (shotgun primers)
  15. You might get more response in the correct section: Appraisals - Airsoft Forums UK (airsoft-forums.uk)
  16. Take off the baseplate from the grip and make sure the connectors are properly on the motor.
  17. Less and less for me too 😟 Its been several months since I last played. I hope to go again at least once before the end of the year.
  18. Read the forum rules and put them in the correct classified categories
  19. Welcome mate 🖐 Oh yes, we all spend all our time looking for toys and gear 😁 Good vids. A bit of a change from your others I guess you have a commercial drone license? A good way to describe airsoft: People of all ages playing soldier with toy guns 🤣 Looks like a good site but check here for other places near you: UK Airsoft Map — PlayAirsoft
  20. You don't actually NEED UKARA to buy a realistic replica, most retailers just rely on it as the simplest VCRA exemption when buying online. Its actually at their discretion hence some retailers waive the UKARA requirement for a little extra dosh or face to face dealings as you experienced. The 3 games at one site is not a big deal even if the site sucks. You still gain experience and then can move on once you are registered. Since the UKARA registration lasts one year, most sites will renew for a small fee even if you don't attend again. A private sale technically falls under the same requirement that the seller should be reasonably satisfied the buyer will use the replica for legal airsoft use. I haven't yet heard of a seller being prosecuted for selling a replica used in a crime but its possible.
  21. As above, It means replacing skill with spraying loads of BBs as compensation. These kinds of people are very annoying at a game and are referred to as 'wankers'. (Do a google search) A good player would not need more than 15rps to get the hits they want.
  22. Be careful tying to get as close as possible to 350fps because chrono readings do vary so it might show higher on theirs. Does that CYMA have a full metal tooth piston rack? If not its more likely to strip ...and 28rps in definitely in wanker territory
  23. You can use 11.1v but it will likely break something very quickly. The internals must run super smooth and be made with components that can handle such power. The parts inside will wear faster and any problems will result in more severe failure.
