  1. Ok, got the Deans connector on and it seems to like running on 11.1's not 7.4's. Rifle is only shooting semi-automatic for some reason, flick to Full Auto and nothing, stays on semi...but this is fine as It's running @ 420fps on 0.2's. Below is a pic of the hop set for 0.2 and showing just over 400fps. I was thinking yesterday about how to set it to single shot only, so I guess something inside the gun made the choice for me. I really need some open space though to run .28's & .3's through it though. The recoil is brutal for an AEG, stronger than my TM Sopmod.
  2. Well a while ago I was trying to figure out if I should get a TM Recoil or a Bolt Recoil... Bought the TM Sopmod recoil and love it...but due to the COVID19 and saving money...got the Bolt M16A4 I also wanted.. (Going for the USMC look, Got the GBASE repo ACOG from Firesupport and threw on my spare Gripod and one of my PEQ-15's....all to go with my M81 look)
  3. Anyone know where I can get some o-rings for a A&K Mk46/M249 hop unit... Also trying to find a replacement front site as I kinda knocked mine off. :(

  4. Redwold Airsoft are having 16% off everything...worth a punt on a AEG or will I get taxed to death importing?

      I mean that 16% off will pretty much get taxed away, if not more. Only buy a full gun from asia if it's at the very least 25% off imo.

      Righto... :)

       

  5. Love my TM M4..but today's winner was my G&G MP5 SD6 - This gun just rocked @ West Midlands Airsoft.  So light and nimble, sneaking through dense undergrowth was so easy with my belt kit.  :)

  6. Just got home from NPF and man...there were a load of HPA guys running drum mags today...All you could hear was Brrt brrt Brrt Brrt...  Why shoot someone once, when you can shoot them 30 times.  :)  Had a good day.

      NPF has become a bit of a sniperfest lately so good to see a change in weapon. I have temporarily stopped playing there as I witnessed a marshall chrono a sniper on 0.2's doing 400 then put 4's through and come out with 400 and wave it through with the comment "it's under 500 with 0.2's so good enough for me". I sent an email after the game day questioning this and didn't get a response.

       

      I understand a "bit" of joule creep but that's just dangerous. I'm shocked at how the guy got it running so hot though.

      I did think the Chrono was a bit pants...never seen the device they were using..took multiple attempts to get a reading..

      @Monkman probably as it's primarily a paintball style chrono.

      NPF has so much potential but they need to get some "real" airsofters in there and not just re-purpose the paintball refs who have no interest.

  7. Man...putting that old G&G mechbox back together was a right pain in the arse..forget how much I hate old Ver 2 boxes.  ICS have the winning ticket with split-gearboxes.  :)  (G&G now working properly again...)

  8. Evolution of my Tokyo Marui Sopmod, to Block II then Block III
  9. It's here....and no import taxes as well. I wonder if I Corona-virus now? *Gonna stick it on the TM asap..
  10. Sig Sauer M17 - What a pile of poo.  Wouldn't cycle or feed from the magazine.  Stripped it, re-assembled..but still wouldn't work.  It's going back....  :(

      Go for a Marui FNX-45 instead! Modern, brown, and it works.

      We should all feel guilty :P

       

       

      Also yeah, go for a TM FNX

  11. Decided on greengas for the sig...too much power with co2 and lots of stories about issues...so greengas and see how it goes with the Sig.
  12. Well decided I needed a new pistol.. Sig Sauer M17.
  13. Hmmm.. VFC/UMAREX  Glock19X or the Sig M17....

      Yes, both are made by VFC..but the Sig version has very tight quality controls i've read.  But read good things about the glock..

      Shot the real 19x this evening.

      It was shit.

      Sig all the way.

  14. Well seeing as I am not playing CQB for a while...taken off the IR illuminator/ G&P Dbal & magpul grip...and slung on my S&T M320 instead. Just need to paint it up to match the gun. Gonna get me some 40Mike action on Sunday. (My home site allows them..as long as I am nice to people) **Btw, the barrel was loose, so took of the front rail (1st time) to discover a very detailed HK gas system hidden away.. Quite impressed with my little G&G.
  15. When your waiting on a new rail coming on the slow boat from China....then Camoraids gets stock in similar to what I have coming and is only £25 more expensive.

      Does it come with a free virus though?

  16. Ugh...I'm out the house 25mins to go get a jab @ Dr's...return home and missed my delivery by Royal Mail.

      Thats one good thing about antivaxxers. At least they dont miss the mail man

      @SgtTalbert was gonna make that exact joke 🤣🤣

  17. Lost my Dynatec grenade pin on Sunday.  Rushed a bunker, lobbed the nade..confirmed the kills.  Dropped the pin!  Argh...could not find it. (Usually have a lanyard for such things, but forgot it) 1hr later..Marshall walks up to me... Is this yours?  Whoo!!  (Marshall gets a load of free Revision wipes from me...) Explosions continued for the rest of the day. :)

      I did this once, in a woodland... spent the whole of lunch searching for it and actually managed to find it under a bunch of fallen leaves etc. probably wouldn't get that lucky again if I tried so I now also use a lanyard 😂

      Still a better love story than Twilight.

  18. Decided to bite the bullet and paint a couple of my guns... Before & after shots..
  19. Holy hell...those are expensive asf... I am jealous. Scotty Country Sport had some in today at the show...tried one, but as I am left eye dominant..couldn't see out the 2nd tube. So won't be buying any...will stick with my monocular instead.
  20. Vortex SPARC AR + Vortex Micro 3X Fitted onto my TM, sight picture is very good and eye relief is good too. (Not as good as my Vortex Strike Eagle 1x6) - Got a discount from OpticsWarehouse @ British Shooting show today. (Also got some nice tops) **Bought on finance...lololol Couldn't buy it but Sig Sauer stand had this on show...the P320 - M17. This gun was nice, racked really well, trigger was crisp and not a long pull. felt great..very impressed. Am going to buy the Co2 version soon.
  21. Well had 2nd thoughts about selling the Daniel Defence rail...found I could use shimms, so ordered some and after numerous trial and error with the shimms and the tiny hex bolts (and lots of swearing) I managed to get the rail to fit and locked tight, with no wobble and the barrel is almost perfectly aligned. (The rail sits about 1/2 mm higher then the upper receiver rail..but I think I can live with that...coz it's a toy gun! lol.. Got some new rail covers coming and picking up (hopefully) a Vortex Red dot & magnifier as the Shooting Show @ the NEC this weekend. Then will paint the bugger I think. Might think about a Mk16 rail futher down the line for a more streamlined profile..or go back to the original M4 if I feel like it.
  22. Gutted....ask mate to collect a Madbull Daniel Defense OmegaX 12" rail up from a store, only to find they didn't include the replacement castle nut & fittings.  :(  (email's have been sent.) 

     

  23. Is taking x3 rifles & x1 Machine gun & pistol & Nade launcher with Master Mike...a little too much for Sunday?  😋

      I assume the backup-backup-backup-backup-backup shotgun is a given?

      Well the Machine gun didn't make it out as the A&K box mag is proper shit! :(  - The ICS has an issue with full mags...but took it for testing only as thrown a lot of mods in it and the G&G got a good run in the afternoon and was tre-impressive after being upgraded..and the TM just made me smile all morning.

      Lucky, my arp died again today.

       

      Had to borrow a teammate's short amoeba for the last game (he skipped it because he decided to falcon punch a tree stump with his knee)..

       

      On a side note, I need one of those little buggers
