  1. The plan is to use it as the basis of something more theatrical, but it'll need calmed down as it's a bit spicy. On the other hand, the mags are feeble and it's struggling to get 20 shots from a fill even though it's NBB. Still, I'm sure I'll spend more on something worse at some point... Them's proper righteous.
  2. Hello airsoft friends! Are these good RIFs to buy to win at airsoftwars battle maps? The pistol has 1.3 jewels, just like a watch, and the advanced future riflegun has pure polymer bushings in its bearings so should run very smoothelely!
  3. I suspect he's legit, just a bit optimistic. But swaps are always super-duper sketchy, so best avoided unless you like sending off real items in return for nothing more than a promise from a stranger with nothing to back it up.
  4. This is the correct section for an advert: https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/category/4-electric-rifles/ Since it's currently in appraisals, I'll chime in by suggesting that if it doesn't come with the drum mag that you don't show it on the advert, as it's somewhat of a bait and switch. Also, it's considered good form to write your forum name and the date on a piece of paper and photograph that with whatever you're selling to help to alleviate the suspicion that you're just using a stock photo. It's also helpful to clarify whether you're willing to post, and if so whether the price is inclusive of postage and PayPay goods and services fees. If you're not willing to accept PayPal G&S please say so up front - but you'll find it much harder to shift. The price is... optimistic. It's £320 new, and used prices are generally 60-70% of new. Being two toned generally reduces the value (because of the risk of it showing through) and the extras don't add a huge amount. You can of course ask what you like, and you might find a buyer, but everybody wants a bargain so I'd expect to receive significantly lower offers, especially if it's collection only or you're going to add on postage and fees. Best of luck.
  5. Yarp, it's a £40 unhopped 0.6J NBB. The best you can say is that magazines seem to be available, and it's (probably) gas efficient.
  6. Yes, sorry that you got ripped off, but that's an unhopped 0.6J pistol that's essentially a novelty trinket. The best you can say about it is that magazines seem to be available.

    You can say it all you like, and we can call you a chancer all we like.
  8. Agreed, and it can go heavy on the film and light on the sim. I really enjoyed a Narcos themed filmsim that I did a few years back. You had a camo-and-ARs Federales side for Sergeant Serious, and a Hawaiian-shirts-and-AKs Cartel side for LARPing larks. But it was a well run two-day event with defined objectives and a scoring system (for those who cared) that added a lot more depth than a regular skirmish. Well worth a try.
  9. A smear of silicon grease can do wonders there. 1.3J from an M100 and a stock (but stretched-and-greased) CYMA gearbox and nozzle. Yes, quivering on the edge of a Section 5. The difference between nearly sealed and really sealed is remarkable.
  10. If you can find someone who wants them and values them. The more you fUlLy CuStOmIsE a gun, the smaller you're making your market.
  11. Need, maybe not, but I'd always choose higher C (and higher capacity) over lower. Although with the caveat that anyone can claim anything, and very rarely have it tested. Hmm, I might suggest airsoft batteries to to ProjectFarm... 🤔
  12. The cheapest, toyish plastic CYMA + a bunch of free gifts. Might as well be titled "Buyer's Regret Starter Pack".
  13. Ahoy and welcome. As above, it's either the cut-off switch not cutting off, or the trigger contacts being too close. In either case, it's a case of taking the gearbox apart to find out. This is quite time consuming and intimidating the first time you do it, but there's nothing particularly hard about it, and there are loads of decent disassembly videos on YouTube that can help.
  14. The counterpoint being that filing a bit off of the fire selector does nothing to prevent trigger spam. I honestly don't think there is a way to keep them honest in-game.
  15. Do we know what 300ml of propane/butane mix plus propellant weighs?
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. 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?
  23. 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.
