  1. Hypnosis...that's a sweet looking setup. I'd keep the rail, looks pretty dang good. Oh..i've just bought a MTW as well..and a few other things... MTW Carbine + Phoenix Hop + spare feed tube & retention clip (In case I break them when maybe changing the rubber/bucking) Shark 48cl tank with Storm regulator Wolverine Filtered grip with Amped wide bore 42" line. 6 Mags 7ltr Scuba tank with fill line. Quite expensive...but hopefully worth it. Was thinking about the Forged Milspec, but put off by the single fire only option with it.
  2. Thankgod it's gone.... I left the group as the most common post was about "best antifog goggles/glasses"... I first started to reply with some wisdom..but when you keep seeing new posts about the same thing and people can't be bothered to check previous posts...Ugh.
  3. Well was just about to spend over £1k today on a HPA setup with High Pressure Airsoft..but their website isn't working and they are not responding to messages or phone calls...oh well, least I ain't in a rush now seeing as we can't play for next 2 months...

      HPA club is pronounced "eee-leeeeet" club

      First rule of HPA club - look down on AEG peasants

      Second rule of HPA club - laugh at gas peasant inconsistencies

      Wolverine MTW.. :)

       

      I will be looking to part ways with some of my AEG's now I think..but keeping my recoils..as they is too much fun.

  4. Congrats...I'm just waiting to make sure my Bonus is in my paypacket and I'm pulling the trigger as well..
  5. Great...just wanted to see where my items were from China, paid extra £20 for air shipping seeing as import via shipping are mega delayed due to ongoing issues with docks..So wondered where my stuff is..checked online and everything that was "instock" is acutally "out of stock"...well shit me.   Have requested cancel & refund.  Lets hope the Chinese give me the refund.  Ordered from AirsoftTiger111HK.com  (Ordered some bits for my TM SopMod & gas mags for my WE Ak project & another tracer/suppressor.)

      Unfortunately mate you’ve just described the biggest complaint EVERYONE has about buying from HK  , there unreliability when it comes to stock status .

      i like most others I’d wager have many many times been in exactly the same position as your in over the years but unfortunately it’s the nature of the beast , if you don’t want to pay stupid prices or you want hard to find parts or items then it is what it is .😢

      Yep, I guess their internet person was slacking on keeping their website up to date.  At least they updated my order, but only after I checked... :)

       

      Well will have to source from UK retailers and pay quite a substantial markup in price I guess..that's if I really want to get the same items now.  I can wait, not needed urgently..  Maybe Jan sales might reveal some winners?

  6. Bullgear Mk46 boxmag has finally cleared customs from Russia. Yay!  

  7. Car failed MOT, so new HPA on hold whilst I get cracked Alloy sorted. :(

      Not eligible for BMW to do a runout test?  The 19s on mine are notorious for cracking.  It's so bad Watchdog did a feature on it.  I'm sure there was a class action lawsuit in the US but over here BMW pretty much tell you to get fucked.

      I got aftermarket alloys on mine...when I got the car it had 20" AC SCHNITZERS on it, but were already cracked and had them re-welded, then cracks on welds again..so replaced them with new 20" rims which cost me a grand, but the 20" Schnitzers are 5k. (Guess the 1st owner wanted them)  Only went down 20" again as all the rubber was still newish and didn't wanna spend a further £700 on new tyres.

       

      Will see next week what the specialist says... It's only the front & rear o/s alloys that are damaged. (Bloody potholes)

       

      Next car will be a 4x4 of some sorts I think....sod having fast motor's with big wheels..to damn expensive.  :)

      Yeah.  I can see 20s absolutely giving you trouble with our crap roads.

  8. This advert is COMPLETED!

    • For sale
    • Used

    Here is my spare G&P Daniel Defence Omega X 12" rail which I have for sale. CNC machined and very light weight. Have used it only once in a scrim (See photo of it in the wild) Also included is a repo Magpul front grip and enough spacers for the barrel nut for fine tuning fitting to rifles. (I've included a small Alan key for the tiny Alan bolts you need for alignment, takes a bit of fiddling to get it right, but once done it's solid) Reason i'm selling it is because I bought this and also ordered the URGI rail from ZParts...and the G&P Daniel Defence rail is just not need. Price includes postage.

  9. Anyone know where I can find Well Ak74 GBBR Magazine input valves?

      Hello, i had a WE ak and the WE valves fit the WELL mags, There just standard WE input valves. https://www.airsoftworld.net/we-magazine-charging-valve-filler-valve-single.html

      Brilliant, nice one Stotty.... Ordered.  :)

  10. Well today I used one of few remaining leave days. So was intent on having a great time, which it was...right up to about 1hr into the afternoon game. Hit a spikey tree stump, my left knee went one way and the rest of me went the other way...hit the floor like a sack of shit. Marshall was gonna call the game, but I told him not to....didn't want to ruin the flow of the game as we were winning. After about 20mins of trying to see if it would be ok, I decided to continue playing, but only by hobbling everywhere...determined not to waste the day. Just got home and I have a massive lump (The size of a tennis ball) on the side of my kneecap...a little worried as the swelling is enormous. Will see what it's like tomorrow. It was a great day, weather was beautiful and gameplay and sportsmanship was pretty good. Even got given a AK74 GBBR with x3 leaky gas mags as a gift from a mate, who I helped out getting him a few rifs.
  11. Helikon training mini-rig from Bullseye Country Sport. Gotta love Woodland gear....and should be nice & light. (4 Mags, 4 Pistol mags and lots of space in both pouches for skittles)
  12. Thanks for the link, just bought one as well...always room for more bang on the battle belt.
  13. M249/Mk46 users.. FYI.  Just bought a boxmag from BULLGEAR, which is their upgraded one with metal internals.  I was holding off as it shows you have to wire the mag into the mechbox..but if you drop them a message on FB, they will send you the "new" version with a battery inside it. :) (My 4th shitty plastic chienese piece of expensive crap box mag died on Sunday..no more messing around)  £138 inc shipping for the Bullgear box mag. (And A&K plastic box mags retail for £99.99..lol)

  14. Ok, x3 guns with Luke @ Negative Airsoft.  I'm starting to think about HPA, as I'm getting fed up with broken AEG's.  Might sell the lot (Apart from my TM Recoil) and go for a Wolverine MTW...

      Thanks for the comments chaps, will be seriously thinking about it over the next couple of months.

      @proffrinkwhich is why I prefer using Marui recoils... The haptic feedback from the recoil is just fun... and when the bolt stop goes during a bb-fight you just shout fcuk loudly slap in a mag and hit the bolt stop and there you go.... 

       

      I will consider a MWS too, but am waiting for the Mk18 to be released whenever that will be.....

      I have been thinking long and hard about HPA. Its the only platform I have not tried and there no guns I want, so I think my next airsoft investment will be a HPA system and get into that side of it. I see more and more HPA users on sites, it is certainly a growing trend and I think it could end up the norm at some point.

      I would be keen to try some tapped mags and a tippman before I truely went down any other route but could happily convert my current guns over.

      Although if i ever run a hicappa with a tapped M4 hicap you all have persmission to NEVER talk to me again.

  15. Any good recommendations on where to buy 0.3 Bio BB's from chaps?  Just found out next weekend event is BIO only. :(  Looking at all the usual online retailers..just wanted to find out who best to buy from?

      +1 for geoffs, good price and good ammo!!

      Normally I'd peg for O&T as well but only paid attention to these guys pricing last night https://www.ammodrop.co.uk/ammo/bio-bbs very well priced and open blasters are "the" ASG bb's to get.

  16. ParcelFarce48 fail again...  BB's for the weekend dispatched on Wednesday, due Friday...still stuck at National Hub on Friday, not even in my county....I'm away all weekend from tomorrow...Guess i'll have to buy some more BB's from a local retailer.  (Bought x3 bags of Valkyrie 0.32 bbs btw)   Pissed... :(

      Absolutely bloody shower, and they're not even a "universal carrier" any more. The only airsoft thing they do unambiguously agree to carry is BBs, see:

       

      https://www.parcelforce.com/help-and-advice/sending/prohibitions-and-restrictions

       

      And note carefully the distinction between "air rifles, air guns and air pistols" (which they'll take) and "imitations and antiques; paint-ball or toy guns" which they won't (because why?)

       

      I know all couriers are equally bad, but at least MyHermes will charge you less for flinging your parcel in a bush or flogging it at auction.

      sjhirst

      The company i work for gave up with parcelforce- every parcel was late, so bad feedback from customers.

      Every other courier has been spot on for us!

  17. I'm in love with my 5.11 SOMS 3.0 Deployment bag, it carries everything I need, plate carrier & chestrig, with tons of room still left in it, all my mags (20) and ammo & gas...and still had unused pockets and room to spare.  Handles everywhere and being wheeled makes life dragging it a breeze.  Also broke in my Lowa GTX Zephyr Mid boots today..my god impressive booties, super grippy and nice ankle support.  X2 best purchases this year, bag & boots. :)

      I like 5.11 and have a range of their clothing and kit items. Always found it hard wearing and good value.

      My mate is a 5.11 whore...and I'm slowly turning into him.  :)

       

  18. £226. Steep, but it's quality and will last for years. It's a deployment bag, but only place i'd be deploying it to the airsoft field and maybe a holiday somewhere.
  19. Fed up carrying multiple bags to events, so decided to take up the 20% Summer sale from Tactree and stop messing about and buy a decent bag to carry all my shit.
  20. I have a condor chestrig & hydro back panel as well...a godsend during hot hot hot skrims..
  21. Bought a pair of Lowa Zephyr Gtx mid boots, as my Altberg Defenders are a bit heavy and cumbersome for summer. Plus some weather protection to throw up by my car. (Some events I've gone to now with COVID restictions, have u setting up in a carpark..no cover! This solves that one..)
  22. 3rd weekend of Airsoft under the belt...one more to go!  Today was up to me crotch in a stream flanking the enemy...nice and cool on a hot hot day! :)

      Played at my local site yesterday and they had super strict rules in place..and even split the 60 players into two groups of 15 each.  Made for slow boring games. :(  Still had fun wading through streams and getting my sneak on.  Played @ NPF 3 weeks ago.. 150+ players, not restrictions on players in the field, but social distancing was enforced at car park (Not allowed to use safe zone) - Going to a "new" site this weekend and will see what their COVID restrictions will be like.

      Might need to try NPF again, I remember it being good for sniping.

  23. Looking forward to seeing what these can do on Sunday....
  24. Just got back from NPF Bassetts Pole..God I ache. :)  Rebuilt G&G ran great..TM SopMod ran great and Bolt M16A4 recoil was insane and lots of fun....

      Best place Ive been to in the West Midlands. Hilly terrain so legs can ache a bit after a 3 month break.

      I still need to try Stormforce. 

      I've been to NPF once at the start of the year, was good for sniping.
