  1. Millionaire tells millennials: if you want a house, stop buying avocado toast.
  2. I ran a blind spot mirror on my M4 in CQB for peeking round corners. Shocker, it actually let me look round corners. If it's stupid but it works, it's not stupid. Next on my must-have list:
  3. Why would I buy your used example in unknown condition rather than pay £41 delivered brand new?
  4. That's weird, someone on freeads is selling the exact same gun for the exact same price using the exact same picture, but their "as new" gun has a leaky mag. Probably just a co-incidence. I'm sure you'd have mentioned if your mag was leaking.
  5. You need a firearms declaration for assault-style velcro.
  6. Like with so many airsoft toys, it's apparently been "only fielded once". Buying/building one to keep, I can get. Heck, put it in your will that you want to be buried with it (me, that's my Paul Binns sword). Buying/building one to use once, and then get regrets over, eh, not so much. Not listing the secret extra amount of PayPal fees that you'll want added on is disgusting. I mean, I feel viscerally repulsed that anyone could be so fracking lazy as to not bother to work out the number that they're going to have to work out anyway once they have an interested buyer. Not to be hyperbolic, but it's literally worse than Hitler.
  7. Given everything else in it, I assumed that the mags would have the springs removed and be full of either fire ants, or the restless spirits of deceased P90 owners.
  8. Bah, you can never have enough cut-off Tamiya connectors and smashed holo sights.
  9. Let me tell you how glad I am that I haven't put any money down on a "pre-order" Secutor Velites GII from any of the retailers who are expecting a delivery any day/week/month/year now.
  10. Seems reasonable. You might even get that with mid caps as the spring unwinds. Have you looked into a delayer chip? This is exactly what they're designed to address, and they're only a couple of £££.
  11. +1. I've missed one going off at my feet before, and have likewise had to point out to other folk that they've been hit. Maybe shout "PYROOOOO!" like they do on the YouTubes.
  12. Have a look on YouTube (for why you want one) and then eBay (for buying one) for "airsoft delayer chip".
  13. A 10 round shot-shell holder, since I'm all about the pump action at the moment. To be honest, I only bought it because the colour matches my outfit. As per this Evike review, the shells are a very tight fit and don't want to feed down freely. As much as I enjoy fettling things, it might be nice to get a piece of airsoft kit that actually works as described out of the box without modification.
  14. An Eagle 6 M80 spring and Laylax metal bushings for my AEP. That was pretty nerve wracking getting it all back together, but it's pewing OK on a 7.4V lipo and sounds fairly snappy (hopefully not the gearbox). Notionally that'll be 260fps, which ought to give the chrono chaps a surprise.
  15. It might help you if you said which Nuprol that is. If it's a £215 SOPMOD with some tat thrown on it, why on earth would anyone pay pretty much full retail to a random private seller for a used gun in unknown condition?
  16. 07:33 email: " The product you are interested in is available again in gunfire.com. When visiting us you requested a one-time notification if this product is available again. We have good news for you as you can order it now. Hurry up before it disappears from our offer. " 09:27: sold out. Well, I guess they weren't kidding about hurrying.
  17. Please don't be so reasonable and adult in a thread about childish mockery.
  18. I bestow a "Haha" rating on their adverts. That, and the rest. I'm not putting time into trying to reason with someone who's displayed unreasonable behaviour. All it's likely to result in is an edit to shriek "NO MOAR TIEM WASTARS!!!!"
  19. *cough* Collection from where? *cough*
  20. A £520 readily available gun which apparently still needed a £335 kit thrown at it (complete with a spring that puts it over 500fps, but it's £335 worth of art, not science). Add in three £18.50 magazines, maybe £15 of rubber and nub, and a £33 suppressor. Now, you or I might make that £958, but the seller reckons they spent over a grand, or maybe £1300 (£1000 before the £335 kit?), it's not really clear. Anyway, they'll do you a favour and let it go for a very fair £940. With a whopping £18 saving (less postage) over the price of a brand new warranted gun with the same spec, you'd better hurry and snap it up before someone else does.
  21. Fair play, that doesn't look half bad at all. I give up though, where does the battery go?
  22. All of their alternative URLs (gun-fire.co.uk, gun-fire.com, gunfire.pl) now redirect to gunfire.com. Their SSL certificate is only good for gunfire.com and Chrome now (correctly) kvetches if the certificate doesn't match the domain. My account is OK, I can't speak to yours. The site is treacle slow of an evening, and their stock is all over the place. Only 4 out of 14 AEPs are in stock, 18 out of 51 SMGs. When they finally restocked extended AEP mags, they sold out within a couple of hours. I've set up a whole bunch of restock alerts, but the chances of them having enough of what I want in all at the same time to justify the postage cost seems fairly low. Sad times.
