Ahoy and welcome. Loads, is the short answer. It'll depend on temperature and such, but even with moderate CQG pistol use, I buy new gas cans (I use ASG ULTRAIR Power Green Gas 520ml) so infrequently that I couldn't even guesstimate a cost-per-mag. Gas pistols aren't free to run, but they're so cheap compared to other airsoft costs that it's just not a consideration.

Ahoy and welcome. No, not personally. I assume that's the LayLax automatic BB loader. UK prices seem to range from £50 (if they had any) into the £60s (if they had any). There's shill review here which shows it working out of the box, but it's not that fast and clearly struggles to half-fill and EPM1. The comments aren't very complimentary. Nice that it comes with multiple adaptors, but I'd stick to an Odin or clone, given that replacing Odin internals costs a fraction of throwing one of these away when it breaks. Also, Odins and clones are available, but it seems nobody has bothered re-stocking these.

Yarp, same post, 4 years ago. I've run and told teacher.

I see you're a Colonial chap who's talking about real steel (again: this is an airsoft forum, toy guns, pew-pew-pew), so why not order an auto-sear online using your credit card and let your government come and remove your safes for you?

I was going to say that if you're playing CQB, you can run a GBB pistol primary effectively, and if you get the right one, you can dress it up in any carbine kit you like. However, Apocalypse is a hundred acre woodland site, so I'd definitely go AEG there. And of course rent first and try airsoft out a few times before buying anything (except footwear and maybe eyepro). I suspect that OP may be listing what he wants, rather than what he has.

Great that it's going ahead, and I reckon it is a large enough area to be viable with some smart build work. I just hope they don't sink loads in and then get dicked over as soon as a more conventional client shows interest.

I'd assume Customs went in ham-fisted hoping that this time they'd be busting the Lord of War, rather than finding more assault-style-toys. Great news that the contents were fine anyway.

Yakety Sax?

That's a little bit of a Frankengun with the Olde Worlde front post, but a new fangled RIS handguard. That's handguard doesn't really add extra value for a purchaser unless you can find one that's after that specific combination. And grips, suppressors and mags are more what you'd call free gifts or sweeteners. I reckon that's a Delta Armory DA-A02-ETU ALPHA, so £250 new, so maybe £175 used for the base gun. £200 isn't an unreasonable ask - and you might get it at this time of year - but unspecified "upgrades" would actually put me off. I wouldn't even mention that, just what it's chronoing at, if you know. Expect plenty of lowball offers, and "Swap for... ?" asks.

Anything online needs a loicence. https://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/public-and-players/guide/how-to-run-a-lottery-or-fundraiser People give you money in the expectation of not being sent anything in return. What could possibly go wrong?

Should be. But given the QC of airsoft, you could also find that you've bought 4" of extra wonkiness at end of what might have been the perfect barrel if the cut had fallen in a different spot.

That there's a subtle difference between using your debit card to pay an invoice (where the chargeback scheme applies), versus making a direct bank transfer payment (where you're generally on your own). This isn't victimblaming, just pointing out that the difference will matter to your bank. I'd also agree that you've complicated things by punting it on. I'd be very surprised if your your bank is able to reverse that payment - I'd actually be a little concerned, as it would seem to be a scammer's charter for rogue purchasers if both banks are prepared to simply take your word for it.

Wow. This is like anti-advertising. Antvertising? Horribly fascinating though. Now I'm wondering if there's actually a niche for so-bad-it's-effective Idiocracy style marketing.

My AB++ has it as well, and I should really turn it on. Sadly, my local doesn't require it, and you're lucky if you even get checked for semi-lock at chrono. But that's a different, and more general, rant about the uselessness of pre-game chronoing for catching chancers.

Yarp, it's entirely up to your local sites, you'll need to ask them. It's one of the most LARP-ish aspects of airsoft, as functionally, the BB doesn't give a stuff about what it came out of. Locked-to-semi is both a site issue and a legal issue, as anything capable of auto and over 1.3J is a Section 5 firearm, not an airsoft gun. It's easily enough achieved on most guns just by filing a small amount off the fire selector so that it can't push on the semi-auto cutoff lever. My local is fine with me running a long barrelled M4 with a scope and solid stock as a DMR. They are indeed super-exploitable, and enforcement is essentially non-existent. With the best will in the world, when you're presented with a juicy target in the open, it's hard to resist the reflex to send two[*] BBs at them in short order. My other local disallows them entirely, and only allows sub 1.2J auto guns, and bolt actions up to 2.2J, nothing in between. I actually agree with this. [*] Ten.
