    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.

    I have the US ARMY M12 for my M9....brand new, genuine and cheap as chips too...quality holster, not up to modern standards, but still nice all the same!

    Anything by Condor will suit you... I started out in Airsoft being almost 27stone, and I purchased a Condor Chestrig which still had plenty of room with the straps.. I am no longer 27stone and much slimmer now due to diet and exercise...but Condor are very liberal in their sizes for chest rigs & carriers.

    2nd time @ InRange again...took the rebuilt Bolt M16 (Which is awesome again..thankyou Luke!) - G&G 416 and MTW to try and fine tune the Dwell settings..finished off again with Attack Sense range to try and improve my times.. They're having a competition next Wednesday night..so should be fun! :)

    Well shit..... Was driving to play @ ACE today and windscreen wiper mechanism breaks, spazzing out the drivers side blade. (Socket sheered off) - So slow drive back to the house trying to see through the rain... Ordered new windscreen wiper bracket set and new torque wrench/socket set. (Some of my tools somehow disappeared during recent house move)  Spent all week looking forward to playing..even in the rain!  Even booked today as holiday from work!  Pissed off does not begin to explain how I feel today...and still no GBBR from fucking UPS!!! :angry:

      Nice one... There were supposed to be 4 of us playing...but only one of us turned up and Gareth was asked to marshal, as everyone who was due to play/marshal had one reason or another to miss out. (Sickness/Vehicle issues and for one..playing in the rain he does not like..lol)

       

      Least Luke (Negative) sorted out my BOLT I sent back to him, turns out the Perun mosfet got grease on the optical sensors, so he's wacked in a hybrid mosfet and also replaced the motor as works fine for x2 mags then goes gagaa...

       

      Can't make ACE again till next month now due to shit load of weekend work coming up. :(  But will be heading to PPK in Kidderminster for Friday night airsoft evening...and also will pop into InRange again later in the week.

      Feel ya pain @Monkmansame happened to me couple weeks back. Drivers side wiper mech fell apart. Pouring rain. Fuck! It ain't easy trying to drive and look out passenger side. Lol

      Had hazards on and doing 10mph. I didn't make many friends that day.😳

    Found this vid about Analogue vs Digital NV...may be on some help for info.
  9. Monkman
    I applaud your efforts but NV is not cheap and digital NV would probably be perfectly fine for your intended use for anti-poaching as I can imagine you would be parked up or in a hide stationary. Digital NV has a hard time adjusting for movement and only super expensive Digital stuff would be good, but by that price point your already @ Gen2+ Analogue levels of NV equipment. I own a Armasight Siriius Gen2+ monocular (Now owned by FLIR) and it's ok for my needs. It was the cheapest Gen2+ I could find @ the time and they are no longer made. (£1300) - Gen2+ is ok for outdoors without the use of IR illumination, but for when I am using it for airsofting, I do need a IR illuminator for indoors etc..as the Gen2+ struggles, unlike a GEN3 tube..which still may need IR as well. Problem as stated above, anyone else using NV will see your IR bloom from a mile away... There are some cheap Chinese Digital Nightvison items for sale, but are garbage...the only retail Digital NV that maybe of use in Airsoft is the SIONYX AURORA... I think you can get the standard for like £400 (on sale) and the PRO for £999. But whilst you can use them, they are more like GEN1+ and you have to use IR illum as well...and they don't cope well (Refresh rate) when moving. When it comes to head mounting options...mounting to a cap? Not sure about that due to the weight of a device...best option would be to go down the route of a "Skullcrusher" type headmounting system or design a mount that will clip into a helmet mount. Best of luck and I hope you succeed...

    After watching them on FB with there site renovations and build and watching a few vids on YT from AATV...decided I will visit to spend a couple of hours on two of their ranges and have a look around. InRange is based in Rowley Regis (Birmingham almost), can be a bit hard to find the entrance as in the middle of a industrial park..but they are putting up signs soon to make it easier to find. They've really spent on £££ on the venue, place is tidy & clean and looks super impressive. Today I went to use the "Returner" range which is 30mtr's long and then after spending an hour on this. (Fine tuning my MTW HPA dwell and playing with pistols etc..) I was shown how to use the "Attack Sense" targets...and boy was this fun and challenging. Once you create you own account on a phone app, you can log into the system and choose different scenarios and change the levels.... Paul was also telling me they are going to move the targets as they want to double the amount of Attack Sense targets so they can have 4 on 4 competitions...which sounds like awesome fun. The hour I spent on the Attack Sense was totally awesome and was fun trying to beat my own reaction times and try beat some of the challenges..really does improve your reaction times and is quite exhausting after a while...but fun exhausting...and making want to come back for more. I never got to try the Gulag which is runs a maximum of 4 v 4...as I was on my own today...but it does looks awesome and can't wait to try it. (Sorry no pics..forgot to take some) Back downstairs, their bar is well stocked for hot/cold drinks and the strawberry drink was lush!!!...Sat down in the chill out lounge area and relaxed, had a chat with the owner about the venue and future plans. Had a look at the VR suite with the x4 awesome looking PC's and decided next visit I will have a go. Shop has a lot of Airsoft essentials you can buy...and I have to say they have some of the best rental guns I have ever seen!!!!! It's defo worth a visit if your looking for a fun time.. Oh and whilst I was on the range, the owner walked in with a Police officer who was being shown around.... I let the Office have a blast on my Negative Airsoft "upgraded" ICS MARS Carbine on the Attack Sense targets...which he loved every min of it. I then told him to switch to full auto...and with the 7.4 & Perun inside and other mods Luke had done, it's fires like it's running a 11.1.. the Office was laughing and grinning ear to ear.. Maybe a new airsofter has joined the ranks maybe?

    Ok, new gun on the way + bits & bobs from Gunfire..  Any takers on how long it will take.  They say up to six days... :)

      Well just had all the upgrade bits turn up from Milspec solutions...

       

      Just need the GBBR...which is currently sitting in a secure facility pending instructions and agreement.

       

      yay...so maybe 2months from now..if it does not get lost or destroyed by Border Force.

      My MOD24 took around 9 weeks. Gunfire are in the process of changing courier for the UK so fingers crossed no more UPS

      Why not transfer the WE parts to the WELL see if that’ll fix it ? 

    3. Monkman

      Stock pivot joint metal is sheered and broken away from the body..I've tried epoxy welding it to turn it into a fixed stock..but not enough metal left and plastic to metal expoying is no good...feels strong, but I pulled on it and sheered away. :(  Plus the lower receiver as a crack in the frame which I didn't see until pulling it apart and the whole upper/lower receivers wobble..and rivets wiggle as well... It's a £130 Gbbr and it's very very old.  Better to keep it as a wall hanger I think. (Cost me nothing....mate gave it to me)

    Like this one.. (Or the old stickers he has saying "Negative Airsoft thinks i'm a C$$T!"...
  15. Monkman
    God dammit, i've got to stop doing this. I don't need any more guns.....hahahahaha Cheeky little Umarex Glock45. Why? Coz I don't own a Glock. Quality is great and feels good...lets see if it's any good tomorrow night.
  16. Monkman
    Ok, glad I read this and trustpilot reviews. I recently had x4 WE AK Gas mags + other bits turn up..it took over a month to come via Airmail. Got all the items I ordered...and I was about to order WE AK74 from them as mine is pretty much done. (Tried to fix it but it's buggered) **Edit, just realised I have ordered from these guys before under their old name. I always got the items I ordered. x2 Optical sights, Acetech Predator tracer, G&P DBAL and few other items.. All of which arrived fine..if not but taking a long long time. Never bought a gun from them...and now seeing the reviews, I think I may consider buy a rifle from the UK or Europe...if I have to pay a little extra..so be it. I think buying bits/accessories is fine based on my experience...but rifles..hmm nah! Cheers
  17. Monkman
    Looks good... Earmor are great, I own a few sets of MH32's....but i'd be paranoid about losing these tiny little things.
  18. Monkman
    I'm not a HPA expert..what Joules is it shooting on? What fps do you get when using 0.2's if you have any. Is the Hop wound on too much? Are you able to test it in a garden for range/distance. Is the barrel clean and not gunked up. Can you test the Chrono on another gun to make sure it's not the chrono playing up. On 0.4g bb's you should be getting around 249fps and 1.14joules. (See below) Sorry not much more I can say at this moment. Could be a FCU settings. Try looking at Youtube..ton's of vids on the subject. Maybe try Facebook HPA group? https://www.facebook.com/groups/AirsoftSalesUK Or if you dare to enter it... Reddit! Good luck, I hope you get it sorted mate. Monkman.

    Hot..i'd say, but managed to get to around 15:30 before started to suffer real bad effects...and this is with having 3ltrs of water & sportsdrnks to get electrolites into me. Sat in the car at the end with air-con on..got out to talk to someone, and immediately got real bad cramping in the thighs. (To much salt loss today) Considering i'm 47 and younguns quit hours earlier due to the heat..I thought I did rather well. Good day and had fun being a sneaky bastard with my Wolverine MTW...getting to places the enemy team didn't expect an attack from...and the new Daniel Defence "Repo" stock is good. (To a risk getting it from China)

    I have to say.. HPA saved my game day today.  Chrono this site was using was throwing up big numbers..  My G&G is set to 330fps and on their chrono throwing up 360+fps.  (My chrono shows it to be 330fps)  They wouldn't allow me to use it.....as I had recently re-did the paint scheme.  So switched to my MTW and stood there changing the fps on it till they were happy...had to take it down to 80ps!! to get under their chrono limit.

      First & Only - The Jungle.  - Basic site, but was a fun day and the marshals (other than the dodgy chrono) were on top form.  Not once did I see anyone not taking their hits and marshals always seemed to be in the right place most of the time.  Just a bummer at the start and a joke when they brought another chrono out after lunch... Next time I will insist on x2 chrono check or use my own....if I go back, yesterday was a taster game to see what it's like.  I usually go solo and test different places when my team mates can't play.  :)

      You would think that after a few people questioned the readings of the first chrono, they would check with their other one...

      I think at the time as we were out in a open field...the sunlight was too strong to see the readout...but hey ho, it's there rules...  Just a shame I couldn't run my G&G after I gave it a fresh paint job the night before. :)

  21. Monkman
    Well my newest hobby is spending money fixing my V8... lol
  22. Monkman

    Good thing I didn't buy another gun online last night.. Found some issues on the car during service today, which kinda needs to be fixed to stop me from having a horrible fiery death. :)

    We told our mate to buy a Specna as we heard they were supposed to be good... First game it ran like dogshit... I took it home to take it apart and see what I could do...found this inside. Replaced the hop unit with one of my spares and gained 50fps alone due to having a seal now. Guess this was just a miscasting during production... Yes a "lemon" gun. Not saying all Specna's are bad...but mate & us were put off by this..he sold it and bought a Krytac instead.
  24. Monkman

    High Pressure Airsoft have just had a restock of some "Wolverine" bits & bobs...and probably other things I've not looked at.  (Picked up a few mags and another bottle of 2500 0.4 to feed the MTW)

  25. Monkman
    I wouldn't take the risk...with this unknown thing on your back and the huge pressures involved. MADE IN CHINA...let sink in for a minute. 😄
