Fog Stop review by a fat sweaty guy (no cringe video)
 

Got a slight issue with BB accuracy today for some reason - Jeez chaps, batten down the hatches & stay safe etc... In-laws have just rung up saying they just say my rubbish bins go past & they are about 5 miles away. Stay safe chaps, indoors tweaking crap, playing Fortnite or watching Love Island - nah fuck it, I'll give the wall another coat of paint and watch it dry. ATB

Leaky mag, apply silicone to o ring still leaking. Apply silicone to all o rings and extra to the one I think at fault. Still leaking. Order new o rings. Go to take the mag apart to install new o ring and realise it's gas tight and not leaking any more ffs.

Checked my order's tracking.
 
"failed delivery attempt"
 
Haven't left the office (ground floor btw) since 8:30 AM and I'm literally next to the door.
 
What the fuck..

JD Airsoft will have multi shot trmr bases in stock from tomorrow 

DPD can go suck a long one. 
I ordered a set of buckings and nubs back before Christmas. My dumb ass did not realize that Skirmshop was closed over Christmas until the new year which is fine. The parts were dispatched on the 2nd. DPD then failed to deliver no less than 7 times because the driver would get into our vague area (DPD have a handy app that allows you to track the driver) before taking a picture of a hedge and going home. The parcel is now on the way back to Skirmshop. So fuck DPD 

Mrs B forgot to buy D cells for Miss Borg's robot arm kit, so I spent a happy hour diking[1] and soldering[2] a 7 cell nimh crane stock battery down to 5 cells /~6V, then crocodile-clipped it in to power it up.
 
Needless to say: BEST CHRISTMAS EVER.

[2] 59.5 minutes swearing at Chinesium peasant solder, then 30 seconds getting it done with German master race solder.

So I ordered some small parts from zero one and today I got a rather large box from them. Taking it out of the cardboard reveled this...

Now I am thinking damm this is one messed up order that I am not unhappy about. Imagen my sadness when I open the box to find this 

I mean come on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

First time I've quit half way through the day.
 
No shout for chrono opening, a rambling, incomplete briefing that left newcomers baffled, "10 minute" breaks that dragged on for half an hour while the marshals yakked it up in their office, then to top it off, getting shouted at because the chief marshal had forgotten where he'd said the spawn points would be, and blamed the players.
 
Given that lunch would doubtless have dragged on for 90 minutes or more, I wasn't minded to hang around for more of the same.
 
Shame, as the actual play was fine, there just wasn't enough of it.

Got home from work, burgled. Airsoft stuff looked at, not taken. Most stuff still here. Horrible feeling

*IMPORTANT* - Please do not finalise any trades/sales you might have started with TISWAS. He is a known scammer.

Crown Airsoft Limited 🤬
(Don’t buy from this company, this was my experience!!!)
 
I tried to buy a new Glock 18c, it was a reasonable price and came with a tracking number.
 
Here’s the negative side:
1. Tracking number, was slow to give progress, had to email them a number of times for updates!
2. Only got one response back via email, then afterwards same thing happened! 
3. Kept saying if I don’t get a response back I will want my money back, waited until the end of the month, nothing!
4. Had enough, sent them an email for a refund, no response what so ever!!!
 
Here’s the Positive side:
1. PayPal to the rescue!!! 😁
Went through PayPal to take on the case (they said it would take a month) and was completely resolved and got my entire 💷 back, thank you to those people! 😎👍
 
So the moral of this story is always use PayPal for purchasing 🔫’S in my opinion!!! 🤔
 
.... and don’t buy from this company!!! 
💷GAMBLE💷
 

I have some sad news...
 
Spoke to an old friend of mine yesterday and we always used to love the look of airsoft but never actually went (I started going after falling out of contact with him). After a bit of catching up he mentioned that him and his brother and all their mates have since got into paintball... F  😥
 
Made sure to tell him it was the lesser sport.
 
He also mentioned about how much kit they had all bought during which he said something along the lines of "spent £1,500 on paintballs between us" and IIRC that got them around 17,500 balls... If ever we needed a better argument for airsoft 😂

For when a regular Derringer is just too big http://www.hyperdouraku.com/airgun/mi_mini-derringer/index.html

So......

Apparently Royal Fail have taken it upon themselves to "re-export for return to sender" a package of mine containing a dummy muzzle device, rail and trigger guard from Angry Gun, not because it's been pinged for charges that haven't been paid, or because I've failed to pick it up from the office, or not been in when delivery was attempted but simply because they can. 

Looking forward to an entertaining chat with their customer services tomorrow..... 
 

Currently tea-dying a shirt that's not quite the right shade of beige. I suffer for my art.

3 days into the new job.
Someone broke into the office last night and stole.....
 
 
 
A plant.
 
A fucking plant.
 
Nothing else is missing, just a plant.

Well I have had a roller coaster of a day. 
First the Bad: I was doing a regular cleaning of the Striker and suddenly PING off goes one of the screws into the depths to my pit room. I took 2 hours, lots of swearing, a dill and pulling up floorboards before I found the f’ing thing. I really need to get a magnetic mat.
Now the Good: After a little light perusing of the internet I found a series of triggers again for the Striker (no your obsessed) and after invoking many deities over a bloody screw I managed to get this fitted and I quiet like it. So, positives I guess.
 

Remember, Halloween is not long ahead, please dont take you RIFS out....we have seen stupid questions asked on here in recent years!.......

How do these things ever work?
 
Trying to restore the air-seal on my MP5K, we're talking tiny fractions of a mm in barrel alignment between "won't feed" and ""dribbles out".
 
Never, ever replace the stock parts in your gnu. Ever.
