    2nd part of this month's spend was delivered today.

    I'm wondering if it's RIF's that cause delays, as I waited almost 2 months for it to clear Border Force.... They were inside the box and resealed it and was covered in Border Force tape. (It only took 4 days to come from Poland to the UK, then sat with UPS, then BF. Glad you got your items quick mate..

    These are once again available in the UK...so been after one for ages and it's also the GEN 2 verison. (Got mine through opticswarehouse.co.uk...same with all my other Vortex optics. Gotta love zero % finance)

    Yep, still messing with it and trying to find optimal settings... This weekend will be trying the full 4k but it's only 30fps on 4k...there is also 2k and 1080p with much higher refresh rates.. I'm just trying to get back into video editing..used to do a lot when I played ARMA years ago..trying to remember how to use my software..

    Well most compressors that I have seen are of the "generic" Asian ones...(Some airsoft/paintball retailers or Amazon) I elected instead to get a tank and buy refills from a Dive shop and they will also test my tanks & dive tanks as well when they need doing..so supporting local business as well..granted not a lot of money were talking about here..but putting a few quid into business I guess. Oh next year..i'm going to try scuba diving as they do a real good starter package/tryout.

    Our site photographer got a good one of my MTW last sunday... **edit slightly
  7. Monkman
    I was thinking of getting my own compressor, but there are so many things that could go wrong with it and where do I get it serviced? In the end I just bought a dive tank and get it filled for £5 at a dive shop when I need to top it up. Some sites will fill you tank as well for a price or even free....

    Pretty Meh! day today..was good this morning and had fun using the MTW setup as DMR on 0.4's and testing out the new Scopecam 2. Switched over to the WE AK74UN for the afternoon game, but things went downhill...gamemode was attack and defend on the whole field..but was not fun fighting on a 30Degree bank and people were tired/grumpy and being twats...a lot of full auto into people going on. Decided to call it quits with about an hour to go as wasn't fun at all....Which is the first time ever that I've walked off a field. Complained to the marshals, but having only 2hrs sleep the night before, may have dampened my mood for the day...and but mid afternoon I just got fed up with the snail pace gameplay and people being twats...I think about a dozen peeps also had the same idea and quit. Oh the AK74 ran great and the Ra-Tech heavy recoil kit kicks ass...was a lot of fun playing with it before things went south on the playing field. (Having to pick your shots with only a 30rnd mag is nerve racking...buy satisfying as well)

    I have a BOLT M16 and a TM NGRS M4 SOPMOD and the TM quality is better than BOLT's, but the recoil is waay better than the TM...but I would go for a TM instead, considering there isn't much in the price point. (Depending where you shop) I've never had a problem with my TM, but i've broken the BOLT once, which Negative Airsoft fixed for me..but I am starting to have further issues with the BOLT...the main one being the Stock has sheered away from the the gun and until I can figure out how to fix it, it's gaffer taped on... The recoil of this gun is just too much for it to handle I think.... I still love my BOLT, it's a lot of fun to play with...but the TM is well, just a bit better on QC and longevity.

    Are you climbing in? or about to fall out?....lol Nice pic!
  11. Monkman
    Suppressor, Holo sight and maybe some PTS mags..and your good to go.
  12. Monkman

    And so it begins...  The gun wall.  3 Down... 8 more to go. (Once I make more room in me garage of course)  **Yes the M16 is held together by gaffer tape..need to replace the metal retainer in the stock as it broke...gaffer tape holds it all together quite well.  :)

    Went to InRange today to spend a couple of hours on the range to test the WE AK74 PMC....  Quite impressed..shoots really well and blown away that I don't need to alter anything as even on Red Gas it's still below 350fps and I get almost 3 reloads on the 40rnd mags...

  14. Monkman
    To answer a few questions above. ZCI Barrel and Maple leaf rubber... I don't think I gain any further range (which is quite far already) but I did notice an improvement in shot displacement at range. Running as DMR on 0.4's.... MTW was a laser the the week...taking mofo's out at long range..and them not being able to hit back at me. I run my HPA tank in a variety of setups.. Pic 1 - Single shoulder type bag, which runs diagonally across my back, allows me to carry extra stuff...I'm running chest rig with extra mag bandolier here (Running light) Pic 2 - Plate carrier, with Camelback type carrier molle onto the plate carrier..only room for the HPA bottle really. Pic 3 - Can't see it, but running just a camelback water holder, with the HPA bottle inside it...drum mag holds about 2000bb's...I use this for really light loadout!
  15. Monkman
    Haha...I noticed the very same thing yesterday. Not your average run of the mill goat herding talib. Some trained dudes right there.
  16. Monkman
    When I run mine @ AEG fps, I use 0.32 or 0.36. @ DMR fps I use 0.4. (Place I got a good deal on 0.4's has ran out of stock..so probably switching to 0.36 ASG Devil Blasters for DMR role) I just recently put in a ZCI barrel & Mapleleaf super macron 70 Degree..and ran as DMR the other week.. Really improved the groupings and the range was just awesome. (Pic below is when I ditch the single mags and use it at AEG fps with drum mag)
  17. Monkman
    Welcome to the MTW gang!! Such an awesome rif... Used mine last week as DMR on 0.4's. Stuck in a ZCI & Maple leaf rubber and accuracy has improved even more.
  18. Monkman
    After my items finally turned up from Poland (Sat for over a month with Border Farce) WE AK74 with some nice patches.... (Not sure about the Eotech on it, may run it just with iron sights) Also had the ra-tech parts sat on my desk waiting for this beasty to turn up...will run it stock to get a feel for it, then put the upgrades in.
  19. Monkman
    Shoved in a ZCI barrel and Mapel Leaf 70degree bucking...and I have to say a marked improvement in range and grouping of BB's... Quiet impressed for such a cheap upgrade.
  20. Monkman

    No this can't be true...it's can't be... My GBBR from Gunfire.com is out for delivery with UPS!  has it finally cleared customs?  Who knows....I am waiting....Anytime I order something online

      From what I've heard, people say that the GLS service they now use is much better and on time. Maybe I'll try for myself.

      From what I've heard, they've now given up on the UK.

       

      Really, how long ago did you order it?

    4. Monkman

      Monkman

      23rd June I placed the order...arrived in the UK on 29th June and sat there, waiting for Customs to clear it until 3am 9th August when it was scanned leaving on a UPS truck.

    Enola Gaye are Gay....they told me EG67 nades would be hitting retailers beginning July...but no where to be found.  Wonder if I should email them back to call them out... :)

      It's almost as if there is a global ongoing incident of fluctuating severity affecting manufacturing ability and supply chains...

      You know, glitternades would take some of the "It didn't get me" / "Yes it did" out of splosion kills.  If your face is covered by "the herpes of the crafting world", then clearly you took a full load of if.

    Had a great day @ ACE Airsoft, low numbers (30) but still stellar day with great plays by both teams. We kinda stomped the opposite team in the morning, so me & my team mate joined the other team and that balanced things out nicely and we even managed to win a couple of the afternoon games. Both sides played really well and hit taking was spot on. Really enjoyed it and having the field upgraded a bit for the NvS paintball side of things the previous week was a bonus having new structures laid out everywhere. Roll on next Sunday...
  23. Monkman
    I emailed Enola Gaye (Uk firm) about the lack of EG67 nades....had a email back (Which I was surprised about) saying they would be re-stocking retailers beginning of July....they were waiting on their own suppliers..(Maybe china?) I'm still waiting... I want some boom boom! I to have noticed my local(ish) retailer when going in every other month the distinct lack of bits & bobs and mags... I was speaking with a site owner the other week and he's saying prices will be going up. ASG & NUPROL have increased their prices 10%+..but it's down to the retailer to either absorb the price hike or pass it onto us.... I went and stocked up with some BB's from my new fav online BB supplier.

    LoL... Bloke turns up 2hrs+ late for the game, complains no one is around to sign him in, throws a strop saying shit organising of the event..then promptly leaves.  hahaha did I miss something.....maybe don't turn up late for game day!  (I was in safe zone putting masking tape on my M16 stock..yep screw stripped and fell out..masking taped up the stock and solid now..lol)

      Yep bloody fool.

      On game days I'm up early, have prepared kit night before and get to site as gates open. Wander round,chat and drink free coffee ☕.  Stress free and well prepared for the fray lol

      I'd put him squarely in the small minority of people who should just be BTFO'd right out of the hobby. All the grief and drama seems to come from a handful of autards and sociopaths, and I think we could get along quite nicely without them.

    Well it's almost a month now since I ordered from Gunfire.... UPS were giving me all kinds of wrong info.  Gunfire got in on the action and found out what's going on.  UPS do not have the package, but Border Farce has it and it's stuck waiting to be released.  UPS said there was issues with paperwork, but Gunfire have said that's bollox... It's our own Customs peeps who are sitting on my package.
