I have the Vortex x3 mini-magnifier... Pricey, but clarity of the glass is great and the flip mechanism is strong & sturdy and will take a lot of knocks. + goes without saying...anything goes wrong with it, can't beat their no quibble warrantly. (Had my Vortex x1 prism optic sorted within 5 days when I knackered the battery cap) Have had the flip sight last few years, been used on multiple guns and scratched and scored...but glass is still perfect. But if you don't want to go real steel...then HOLY WARRIOR products seem to be the most superior repo stuff out there.

Vortex all the way... I have multiple optics from them and one time I had an issue with one of them, it was sorted within a matter of days... Even the British Army are now buying Vortex for their new AR's..

Due to work, holidays etc getting in the way... Today was first time in months that i've been able to play... Good god I hurt all over, but boy what a laugh today...and only killed x1 AEG as well...stripped a tooth on the piston after lunch, not 20mins into 1st game. But I ran my MTW all morning and it never missed a beat...so spent last part of the day trying to fault find the issue on the ICS.

I have a electric Mag loader from Bullgear..arrived a month before PootyTunes screwed his country over by sending his Army into Ukraine. I doubt very much you will get anything sent from Russia these days and not for a very long time.

**Edit saw you have Sawflys already.... My bad

Viper are ok, own a set myself..great for summer in the heat. I also have a pair of Lowa Zephyr GTX mids which are fantastic and comfy. I also own a pair of German special forces combat boots that I picked up from my local surplus store....I can wade through a knee deep stream at my local site x3 times before they let water in through the socks..as I have retired my old Altberg boots as the treads are too worn. (Used for colder months) Just go to your local surplus and have a looksee...sometimes you can find a bargain on hardly used boots.

Grrr...MTW still hooking BB's to the left, not impressed on Sunday... Some safezone investigation reveals the nub has somehow been damaged. Trip to the Airsoft shop it is then....

Footage from 06/03/22 at Ace Airsoft - Wolverhampton

2:16 that's me rocking my "gaffer" taped Bolt M16 recoil. Yes the recoil sheared the screw holding the stock on...had to bodge it until I figure out how to weld the bastard back on...lol. **HPA MTW not used that day as still hooking to the left...and after investigation, the nub is somehow damaged and this seems to be the cause. New flat nub ordered.... -
Lots of pics of her at a airsoft venue... But kudos for trying to perk up the troops.

As of next Friday...I'm going to be riding this. Harley Davidson Sport Glide. It's about time I got back on 2 wheels.

My ICS was overheating like a mofo...both motor & battery. I switched out to a Warhead Brushless motor and this motor gets luke warm maybe when spamming like mad. They've brought out a cheaper Brushless motor now for around £80ish. I'm very impressed with mine and am thinking of buying one of the cheaper ones to put into another gun.

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Monkman replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Went into shop today to buy some 0.48's for my mate...and a few little bits for myself. (3000mAh 7.4 Titan, couple of flashmags, some BB's for myself) Ended walking out with this as well..... Bugger! (Added on Trijicon & real M4 stock when I got home - Now to clean the barrel & Flathop it) E&C (This will get a couple of skirmishes, then be painted up and mounted on a Plaque) -
Ok, i'm a bit of a Vortex Fanboy....but I thought i'd come to the end of the road currently with collecting optics....but they're releasing the X6 Magnifier..... Hmmm.

Thanks @rocketdogbert. That makes sense.
I knew that a lot of people cannot use a scope both eyes open. I would have thought that using a 1x would be easy enough though. Must be a more common affliction than I thought.

One was complete failure of mechanism..so binned it, only cost me £14. 2nd one I bought was a Nuprol one and the handle broke within days of use... I just supergluded a large toothpaste cap onto it so I could keep using it...but was slow and tedious... Decided in the end to buy a proper one and got the ODIN... You can certainly tell the difference in quality, also picked up a spare mechanism for the ODIN, just in case I break that...as seen a few peeps breaking their odins internals. Electric Mag loader from Bullgear is on it's way finally from Russia...powered by a LIPO, so I guess if I put a 11.1 lipo in it it will load mags with no issues...considering how well built the Bullgear Boxmag is... I have high hopes for this loader. Will post a review once I get it and tested it in the field.
-
+1 for ODIN for a quality loader. (Don't bother with cheap clones as they will break...I have x2 broken ones) Also...I've bought a Electric Mag loader from Bullgear (I have several of there products) but for some reason, they're very slow on getting it to me... Was another xmas present to myself and will test thoroughly once/if I ever get it from Russia. https://bullgear.net/bg-51

I have a S&T M320...it's heavy & cumbersome....I never use it, but it's cool as f$ck...and I will at some point invest in TAG setup...

One of my Xmas presents to myself has come in the post... All the credits are my teams guys.... -

Merry Christmas guys and I hope Santa brings you something long, hard & black... A Rif I hope..

HPA user here... personally I love to use semi and only use Full auto when someone deserves it (Not hit taking) - I can adjust the ROF on mine to Wanker level...but why? All your doing as advertising that you a cunt and there is no need. One lad on our site who plays every now and again sets his up to fire at a billion rps...and everyone thinks he's a knob. Marshalls informed and aware and chrono'd to right limits...but still a wanker for running something that fast and overshooting peeps as well. (He's young and I think trying to show off to his mates with his setup all the time) I always wary of peeps on the site, even more so for rentals & new players..we need more peeps coming into Airsoft, not driving them away by shooting the crap out of them with silly ROF setups. **Btw using HPA as an example...seen plenty of peeps with DSG builds and high ROF builds being dicks as well... But it's airsoft..and people are people.... Merry Xmas everyone.

Bullgear are having a sale on atm... Seeing as I already have their hop unit & boxmag for the Mk46...thought i'd splash out and buy a electric mag loader for all my M4 Midcaps that I use.... $105 shipped. (£80) Their stuff is of very good quality and this little gem should be nice. -
Was getting pestered to get my booster jab, one day before gameday. Glad I told them to F'off.. As had it yesterday and today I can't lift my left arm very well...and have a mad headache. (Will be fine tomorrow) AIRSOFT comes first..then booster.
