They still are, or at least the cheapest guns that you'd actually want to use. They're cheap because they make so many of the things, and their mid range Blue / Platinum stuff is getting a lot of love.

Sadly, there was only one video that I was aware of it, and got yanked from YouTube for no discernable reason. It doesn't even show who uploaded it now.

Nah, he'd have said "furious fisting". Oh, now I have regrets.

Hmm, then that is a pickle. Sorry, this is why I've given up on importing anything now unless it's for sweetie money from Ali Express, who pay (or claim to pay) the VAT and duty at source. -

Does it matter? I infer that it's already on it's way, they put what they put, and you'll get mugged for what you get mugged for. Expect the worst and you can only be pleasantly surprised. -
Putting the energy in yourself makes it more personal. Same with shotguns. Hours and hours of futile jerking your hand back and forth, but what a feeling when you finally blow your load right in someone's face.

Police need to be equipped with fully automatic woodchippers. We need a Woodchipper Pride Month, I already have a flag in mind. I hope, I really hope, that they look into whoever sold the nonce that RIF and do them for it if they don't have a rock solid defence. And when I rant about AirsoftWorld and Fat Bobs selling to anyone who asks without a real defence, this is why.

Barrett 50cal Spring Sniper Rifle-used once
Rogerborg commented on James Slamaker's advert in Spring Rifles

Same with most hobbies, really, and we're spoiled for choice in the decadent West. I'd go with that. Start flogging off what you don't need, but don't sell right out. Try a different site, a pistol-and-shotgun only day, do a hoodie-high-cap day, something to give you a different perspective. But I wouldn't force yourself to go, and especially I wouldn't go for anybody else's sake: that's what made me give up on historic re-enactment, when it became more about "supporting the group" than a pleasant day playing make believe. I don't do group motorcycle rides any more for the same reason.

I guess it'll depend on what they've listed it (well, the various "bits") as. It's generally in the 2%-4% range, plus the £15-20 mugging from the courier when they charge you for the privilege of paying the duty to HMRC on your behalf - that's the bit that really winds me up. -

I'm half convinced that Norn Ireland has already been assimilated by the Euroborg Collective, add there are only token protests to the contrary being made. -
What guns are banned or over powered.

They're teasing at over 9,000. -
What guns are banned or over powered.
Rogerborg replied to AirsoftNewb's topic in General Discussion
It depends on the site. The Depot (departed but about to be resurrected) banned all Dan Wesson style shell loading revolvers, Mk23s with silencers (which could be hiding barrel extensions), and all grenade shells, either shower or Whatever-Mikes. It's always worth asking before buying anything remotely out of the ordinary. -

Nope, picking at the same scab isn't going to work, we're all online veterans here. Maybe try something about his mum? -
Interesting, I've not yet found that the colour of my gun affected my running and jumping speed, but they couldn't say it if it weren't true.

I would note that I've tried Cat Crap vs Revision wipes, eye-vs-eye, and the Revisions did a better job. Although that was on a PETG inner lens, results will almost certainly vary.

Can give a lift to The Base CQC 22nd of August (first and only)
Rogerborg replied to Arctic's topic in General Discussion
Decent of you, and a good plan to abduct a Crye baby and wear him like a skinsuit. 👍 You could also post this on the site's Facebook page or similar. -
Oh man, those feels. Rain-X helps, as does Cat Crap (yes, you right that read) paste. The best potion I've tried is Revision anti-fog wipes, which don't come cheap, but I reckon are worth it, and the price per wipe can plummet when bought in bulk and amortised over several years. Double pane is another big step. Dye i4 and i5 masks are double paned, as are Pyramex iForce goggles (although there are reported issues with the inner pane crazing). You can also dual-pane any goggles with a sheet of PETG plastic (0.7mm-1mm) and strips of 2mm thick double sided self adhesive foam. Then we get to fans, which also work, and you don't need that much air volume. I have FMA goggles which do the job, or you can buy an ExFog system, or fettle up something yourself, typically using a radial fan like this and some tubing and hot melt glue / sugru or similar to seal them together. They can be had in 5V and 12V versions and either can be powered by a small lipo or 9V battery.

As in, can the barrel be wiggled around independently of the hop unit? Worse case you could put some tape around it to try and firm it up. This is a pretty common airsoft bodge, I've just run a strip of electrical tape along my DMR inner barrel to snug it up inside the outer. Mmm, the Magnus effect is super when you get everything lined up just so and the spin axis is perfectly vertical. If it's consistently going off to one side or another that's generally down to barrel misalignment, or pressure on one side or another of the bucking. Inconsistent could be a loose hop arm, although you'd need pretty small shims to address that and I'd look for other causes first. The first thing I'd do is to clean the barrel. Many barrels come lightly oiled for shipping, it's always worth giving them a thorough clean out and then an occasional wipe through. Then I'd replace the hop rubber with a Maple Leaf, either a Macaron, or a Mr Hop, of 60 or 50 degree hardness. And I'd feed it 0.28g BBs, or whatever it will hop. I have no idea what hop unit is in there (all bullpups are pure degeneracy) so I wouldn't like to give any bad advice there.

Good plan, that always works on the intardnets. Let's try this one: "OK, now that I've got the final word in, nobody else post in this thread." -
I've only seen it happening in CQB, with (I'm fairly confident) 0.2g ASG Blasters, not otherwise. Wearing glasses under the mash should prevent any issues from that, or from paint spalling.
