  1. No, storage charge is 40% to 50% of full and then left unplugged. You could unplug the charger before it gets to full charge but of course that's less accurate. Selecting 'Storage Charge' with an intelligent charger will actually reduce the voltage if necessary.
  2. Welcome 🖐 Lucky indeed. As Dan pointed out, any 7.4v LiPo is good. Look for the highest mAh that will fit in the battery space. (Usually around 1200mAh) Check here: LiPo Battery for RC Cars, Planes & Boats | Quality LiPo, Low Price | HobbyKing and here: 7.4v Airsoft Battery Packs (vapextech.co.uk) I think this is a good one: Airsoft 7.4V 2600mAh 25C LiPo Cranstock battery with case LP305 Vapextech The connector may need to be changed depending what the gun has. (Probably a clear one called mini-Tamiya) You'll also need a LiPo charger. Look in those shops and also try a search for 'Li-Po charger' Good luck
  3. Ya, duno anything about HPA for airsoft specifically but pressure connectors in general should never vent. As said above, check the valves are clean and free to actuate.
  4. I've ordered about 5 things (not airsoft related) from aliexpress with no problem (yet)
  5. 😬 I've had a new pistol arrive with the hop rubber not seated properly but nothing as bad as yours. Not good S&T
  6. This advert is COMPLETED!

    Need to sell to fund other toys 😉 A few minor marks (they don't look as obvious in real life) Fully working with no leaks and shoots around 230fps with green gas. (Would be higher with red or black of course) Feels really good in the hand as it weighs a hefty 830g (Close to real which is 1kg) Great for plinking and practicing your quick-draw indoors. (cans or toilet roll tubes 😁) £120 including paypal & post

  7. Only bows and arrows allowed 🤣
  8. Be wary of Co2 powered pistols. Read up on pros and cons So do you have to be registered to buy a realistic (black) replica or just be over 18? Unfortunately I don't think it will be feasible to buy used from UK but there are many shops in Europe that have good prices. This was a good place when we were still in the EU.

  9. Welcome Jo 🖐 You can find sites near you here: UK Airsoft Map — PlayAirsoft
  10. Welcome 🖐 Sounds like you'll be a valuable member of a group. Don't worry about joining a team though. Most of us started alone and just formed groups naturally. As said above, to be UKARA registered, you need to play 3 games at the same site with a 2 month minimum but some sites don't pay attention to the minimum criteria. Just play your 3 games and then ask them to register you. (There will likely be charge around £10)
  11. Welcome 🖐 I doubt you'll be shooting me unless your pews have a range over 180 miles 😆 We can exchange thoughts instead. Enjoy the forum 👍
  12. Hi and welcome 🖐 It would be interesting to know the process allowing you to buy a replica over there. Those spring replicas would not be practical for a game and may be more valued by a collector but with more authentic replicas available now I doubt they're worth very much. Do you have a big garden to use? Are you allowed to shoot in the garden? How much are replicas there? Keep us updated...
  13. I don't think its that critical to be honest. As long as its Silicone based it will be fine. Main thing to remember is keep all lubricants away from inside the hop rubber and barrel.
  14. Depends how much you want to reduce the power. You can reduce it around 5 to 10fps by leaving the AEG semi cocked for a few days. Using AUTO do a quick trigger pull so it doesn't fully cycle so the spring stays compressed. (It only works if it doesn't have a MOSFET to complete the cycle) Leave for a few days and test again. Repeat if necessary

    You've posted in Swap Only. Should be in general sale if you accept payment as well
  16. Welcome back 🖐 I didn't play as far back as 2006 but as Impulse said, the toys have likely improved in range and quality since then. Even the budget options like JG and Double Eagle perform adequately for game use. (I do remember seeing springer plastic replica gun kits back in the 80s but never got one) Have a look here for sites near you: UK Airsoft Map — PlayAirsoft
  17. Salut and welcome 😁 Yes, its very common to have 'discussions' with the wife/girlfriend about airsoft purchases 😉 Unfortunately I think sending a 'gun' to France from here would involve a lot of paperwork and not guaranteed to arrive safely 😟 (Maybe someone knows better?) Have fun on the forum anyway 👍
  18. @Beorn You can certainly get a good performer for under £300. Keep in mind that tweaking can improve or ruin performance. Best to wait until you have a backup before tinkering. Its not an exact science I'd suggest to find something that you like the look of and then search reviews followed by asking the forum for opinions. Remember that there can be variation in performance from different copies of the same model so take reviews with a pinch of salt unless there is a definite design flaw found. In theory the more expensive models should be more consistent between copies but up to a point. The performance of our airsoft toys is not linearly proportional to the price so don't let the cost influence you too much. The Honey Badger and Specna Arms Edge have good reputations so they both would be good options. ...Oh and as for space, after a few years you just keep them in a pile 🤣
  19. I agree with searches when things go missing. Its an unfortunate necessity to deal with assholes who usually get away with it. The good thing is that if a site had the reputation of searches when things go missing, I bet that site would have fewer incidents.
  20. I'd suggest one of these: Fencing Plus Ear Mask - Just BB Guns The most protection you can get without the heat. Might be worth wearing shooting glasses underneath if you're concerned about shattering BBs but I think its flexible enough that that's unlikely.
  21. Oh I love the smell of GT85 😏 but aftershave is definitely NOT the first thing I associate
  22. I've no specific knowledge of the Bolt but its definitely broken and would be hard to fix. There must also have been a spring keeping pressure inwards so that will need replacing too. Have you done a search for spares? EDIT: Maybe try here BOLT PARTS | Airshooters
