  1. Ah, that makes sense, especially if the tappet plate is a bit worn. Thanks for the followup, it's good to hear solutions to the questions.
  2. Good, in principle. But also in principle, they shouldn't be telling you without getting into an affirmative-ongoing-consent three-way with the buyer. You could, and you're right to ask the question and be ready to adduce some form of defence. In practice, if it's moving inside the UK, it's vanishingly unlikely that it'll ever be an issue. I'd be more concerned about the courier losing, stealing, breaking, or crushing it without compensation rather than legal consequences.
  3. Much like my airsoft guns, I just grab whatever cheap disposable Chinese-made tat comes to hand first in the morning. Actually true, I like buying Chinese standard movement watches from AliExpress, sometimes to disassemble. One day I'll manage to re-assemble one. And my MP5K. And my AEP.
  4. Ahoy and welcome back. Lipo is great, quick change springs are a treat, and fire control systems have started to show up even in low end guns in the last year or so But the BBs don't care: a properly hopped 1.1J BB is going to go as far as it ever did. My regular gun is just a basic M4 in a fancy shell, and I'm having as much fun as anyone else.
  5. I couldn't find anything further, so I'd assumed it was settled out of court. I'd love to know more about site insurance, conditions, and premiums, given that rather cavalier "It won't happen here" attitude that we see too often.
  6. Could, and did. I now wear shooting glasses in "safe" zones and even car parks because far too many players and sites have this "lol" attitude.
  7. And it's intended to blind and dazzle. As they said at the Depot brief "We don't want someone finding out they're epileptic while standing at the top of the stairs."
  8. For when you only want your top half to die?
  9. First you induce a seizure with that strobe light, then you shoot while they're still twitching. 4:3 inside portrait inside 1080p, where did we go wrong as a species?
  10. Yup, always check the simple stuff first: connectors, and wire continuity: a basic multimeter will pay for itself the first time you use it to find a wiring fault.
  11. You have mind-bending daemons from the Warp, foul xenos that can rip a tank apart like tissue paper, and esoteric alien weapons that were perfected before the first cell split in two on Holy Terra. I have a pointy stick, and my faith in the God Emperor of mankind.
  12. Wow, that is a decent price. Nothing wrong with JG, they make robust stuff. Is it blowback, as claimed?
  13. Oh, great spot. Warehouse 3 rather than Warehouse 1, but I suspect that's a distinction without a difference, as "Wolf Prestige Automotive" is also on site. [EDIT] Hmm, maybe not, all the people involved seem unrelated. If Novelty Island Management Ltd (t/a BBGuns4Less) did just buy the name and whatever remaining stock they had for a few quid, that does make sense.
  14. Damn, good spot. Ares, just why? 😕 Reddit, I'd assume. (Reddit, just why?)
  15. A Jedi Master and a Nigerian Prince? Impressive.
  16. Blimey, I assumed that he'd have some sort of body of work to evidence his claim that he just needs a bit of funding to make it into the big leagues. I'm disappointed - although not really surprised - that it's 6 seconds of potatocam.

    "transiting"

    I wonder if he might be listing them on an ATA Carnet.
  18. Now do a chargeback. He ought to be using this picture.
  19. Are you all tarded? Only one drink has what airsofters crave.
  20. Fooly upgrayedded though, and 79 happy purchasers. Some people do value the narrative.
  21. There is a level of legal implication. The instant you appropriate someone else's property after having been told not to touch it, you lose the Theft Act 1968 section 2 (1) (b) dishonesty defence to theft, and have to rely on intent. Of course, everyone who finds and appropriates property will claim that their intent was to throw it back, or put it somewhere safe, or hand it to a marshal, or ask around the safe zone, or ask on the Facebook group when they find it in their dump pouch later. Most people will even claim that honestly. But someone sticky-fingering a BFG or mag will claim it twice as vehemently if caught. This is why I'm wary about picking up anything on site, for any reason, as opposed to standing over it until the owner or a marshal shows up, or moving it carefully aside with a foot. I know I'm not going to steal your stuff, but there's no way that you can know that, any more than I can know that you weren't intending to steal mine. On a pragmatic note, well meaning people who pick up items from the floor and put them somewhere "visible": please, please don't. Nudge them to the side, sure, but I'm always going to be searching for them on the ground. I've lost count of the times that I've walked right past grenades that have been put up on a ledge or barrel.
