Heeeeeeeeeeeeeehahahahah, what? ? mad lad.

Nicely done! As a fellow member of EVArmour Squad, I would recommend ostentatiously over-calling hits for a while until the squishes accept you as their rightful superior.

£19 an hour is the litigant-in-person value accepted as reasonable by courts. And remember, lawyers always round up.

Or a re-skin and change the marketing? Who do they think they are, Nuprol?

"Mosfet" covers a wide range of things. Specna Arms EDGE and I think now all the CORE models have a very basic mosfet that just offers trigger protection and better current flow. If you go up to the Specna Arms EDGE 2.0 models, or the Double Eagle M9xx, then you'll get a fire control system with a lot more options like burst modes. If that's what you're after, then those are the two that I'd suggest. They also have decent hop units and quick change springs so you can fine tune the power easily, and both of them have Deans connectors. The Double Eagles are a bit cheaper, although at the moment it's a case of buying whatever's in stock. Or the S65, e.g. https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/438918

Have a laugh with it, send them a picture of the mags literally in your hands.

Luke out, they're getting some Negative feedback. https://negativeairsoft.com/epic-arse-pain/

Wait, wait, wait: is their gender being assumed from their genitals? ? Sounds like someone needs to re-do their Diversity, Inclusion and Equity training.

Sounds like GearGrindr. Nope, I pay to go to an airsoft site to play airsoft, not to talk about playing airsoft. I can do that here free and without travelling. Still, I am grateful for their honesty that the actual play (if any breaks out) will be a completely chaotic whangfest.

Tan? Tan? 60 degrees is beige, you degenerates. ?

This 100% reads like a shill advert. I'm not saying that it is. But it 100% reads like it.

Kegel exercises should help with that.

Specna are OK at the moment. G&G are solid choices, with decent plastic, but are woefully short on features given their current prices. A QC spring is a deal breaker for me now, in any commodity AEG. If it were my money, with polymer as a requirement, I'd go Double Eagle M9xx.

The obvious question would be: what do you want your new girlfriend to do for you that your current one won't?

Seems to be a voluntary participant. Absolute champ, doing more to support our boys than any Defence Minister in living memory.

Dammit, my grandads fought Hitler to protect Great Bri'ish traditions like dogging.

How's the front sight? Does it look vertical and true? Have you tried removing and re-seating the rear to be sure that it's on squarely? If so, I'd secure the gun on a bench, tie a string to the rear sight peephole and run it in a straight line over the front sight post. Stand in front of the gun and see how well it lines up with the barrel. It'll only be approximate, but it might give you an idea if it's badly off. Worst case, you could throw on a red dot, unless the rail is wildly off from the barrel.

Eh, maybe. The site won't want to admit liability and their insurer won't want to indemnify them, but in the event where someone gets rekt, courts like to make awards against the deepest pockets to ensure that the rekee isn't left hanging. For example, motor insurance that doesn't cover the type of use at the time, or even when vehicles are stolen and crashed, or are sold on without cancelling the policy. The underwriter is generally obliged to pay out, and can then come after the policyholder to try and recoup their losses if they made a fraudulent declaration or neglected to tell them something material. There's nothing to stop you naming the individual and the site in the suit though. Vowles vs Evans and the Welsh Rugby Union is the precedent that keeps coming back to mind, where an unpaid volunteer referee was held to have a duty of care to ensure players' safety (and had failed it). In that case, the WRU's insurers paid out. I'm generally agreeing with the point though. I'm there to get shot with low energy plastic BBs, and accept that there will be loud but not deafening bangs, and that I might catch a metal BFG in the shins. If I suffer a life changing injury due to a higher energy projectile, or an earball bursting explosion, I'm not just going to shrug it off and say "Well, who could possibly have foreseen that?"

I can old-man-yells-at-cloud about them too, it's just that we hadn't got there yet. I've seen a few pyro-lobbing-things described as "mortars" and "airsoft", but they seem even more niche than TAGs, and mostly just talked about for, well, this.
-
At the sites I've played, it's been "1 in the air" or "Every 2 seconds" - which at DMR ranges is much the same if you actually wait to see the impact or miss. In practice, I've never seen it policed at all, and I've seen other DMR players taking the absolute piss with it - and it's very easy to do when you see a target appear. Example, we had a bloke on here reckoning that he might set his mosfet to limit him to a shot every 0.5 seconds, i.e. four times as fast as the above rules/guidelines. DMRs are super, duper exploitable. I enjoy(ed) mine, but if I were running a site, I'd ban them off entirely, as one of my local sites already has.

When an airsoft version appears, I will have one, even if it costs more than the real thing. Hi-Points are literally bulletproof. -
Ahoy and welcome. Yes, the site will be open on "walk on" days. The pricing on that is for people who have their own gear: gun, eye protection, and BBs. Some sites have got back to really meaning "walk on" as in, turn up, pay and play. Some (many/most) now require pre-booking for "walk ons". If you haven't played before then you'll want a rental package which will cover the above, so you can see if you enjoy the experience without spunking hundreds on a daft toy first. These are always pre-booked as the site will have limited amounts of rental guns. They tend to run £20 - £25 more than a "walk on", which looks expensive, but since you'd go through £10 or more of your own BBs anyway, it's not actually that much more. And if you have gun or battery issues, they'll just fling another one at you and you can get on with playing. As @rocketdogbertsays, it's best to ask the local site for clarification on all of this, as their explanations can be a little... minimalst. And yes, it's fine to rock up solo, we're all there for the same thing, and it's super easy to get talking to people. Just ask someone about their gun, and see if you can get them to shut up.

They do make a fair bit of sense if you're already slow-and-steady on the trigger. I've actually de-DMRd mine because it was, if anything, too good, and it's quite hard to not trigger spam just a bit when you're presented with a tasty target. That's the joy of airsoft toys, nothing is permanent.

Hopefully they never see any of those HPA metal-shredding BB-hose videos. Sure, it's not really a concern, especially for a bolt action in in EnglandWaleshire when at most it'll just get bumped up a category to a very low powered air rifle. Scotland, on the other hand... <looks around nervously>
