    £20 Chinese clone going for over £100. At least they're generous enough to offer free postage!

    Something up with Prefired? Website has been slow for weeks now and often doesn't load at all.

    BCM Gunfighter stock just arrived. Took me a while to figure out how to install it!

    Ah, the joys of ordering from China..

     

    Bought a replica 551 Eotech at the end of last year. Just under a month later it arrives and it's missing the battery contacts. Tell the supplier who say no worries, they'll send a replacement.

     

    2 months later.. nothing. Contact them again. They say they'll send another parcel. It arrived today, 7 months after initial purchase and I shit you not the contacts for this are missing too.

      Looks like it's chargeback time

      Reasons why I never buy from a china seller if I can help it. Difficult to do though.

      I try to stick with non functioning items if I can (suppressors , flash hiders , etc) for these very reasons .

    I bought one of those 3-9x40 scopes on Amazon for under a tenner not long ago. Works nicely, good eye relief.. Had a look for the seller but it seems they're no longer selling it. I'm sure a quick search could reveal something of similar pricing. After all they're just rebrands of the same product. CVLife, Excelvan, SMK, etc.. eBay often have good branded scopes going dirt cheap second hand so it could be worth having a look there too. Hawke, Bushnell, Vortex, etc..

    Yeah, I bought a similar package for much less than that.. Gun, magazine, eotech replica, gun case, battery and charger for £110.

    You know the worst part is I went back to change that before I posted and it still autocorrected..

    Bit of backyard pLinking to get in the mood for tomorrow! (gun is empty, hence the lack of eyepro )

    Has PatrolBase ever responded to an email inquiry? I've never got a reply the few times I've contacted them..

      I got a pretty quick response from Dayle, customer services, last week. Contacted them through the website messaging system about battery compatibility and chargers. Later asked him to check my order and he replied swiftly, no complaints so far.

    Stuff like this can be picked up for about £3-5 including postage.

    The LED on my CompM4 replica isn't lighting up when the dial is turned. Cleaned the contacts and tried with a fresh AA and nothing. 

     

    So I'm guessing it's an electrical problem. Does anybody know if it's fixable or do I have an expensive paperweight right now?

      I don't own one unfortunately, but I think I remember how to use it :lol:

      Firstly, you’ll need one of them, a cheap one will do, only really need it for continuity and possibly voltage measurement. 

       

      Youll have to see if power is getting to the LED, if it is, the LED is dead and a new one needs soldering in. If it isn’t, you need to go through each component till you find where the power gets too. 

       

      It may sound difficult, but it really isn’t, just take your time, methodically go from the battery to furthest point and work your way in at both ends till you find where the issue is.

    Up all night putting the gearbox back together and assembling the AK. Watched a lot of videos and learned a lot this night!

     

    I'm probably going to replace the stripped gear with SHS 13:1 and correct the AOE but will I need anything else for the gun to run smoothly?

      ahaha I did this when I was 14. Get lots of shims. Lots. Of all sizes. A lot of the quietness and smoothness comes from shimming. A good piston seal is great too but not mandatory. My m4 is genuinely quieter than some of the sniper rifles on the field ahaha.

      What make is the gearbox ? , most v3 box's are bomb proof . look at your switch and trolley while your in the box as they can wear out or burn out with none fet'ed guns. 

  14. Gepard

    Stripped one of the screws holding the motor to the gearbox. Any decent ways of getting the bugger out?

      The rocket ones from ak2m4 are well worth purchasing, got some in my high RoF(well by standard measures) and they are solid and working really well.

    Can be bought on eBay for about £20

    Thanks. I wanted to mount a torch on the side and the cover took up the entire rail space so it needed to come off.
  18. Gepard
    Is there a simple way to install and remove this type of rail cover? I've already snapped off the end of one of them and would rather not damage the rest.
  19. Gepard

    Love how I can fly direct to Brussels and get a return flight to London for £50 meanwhile a train from Chester-London would cost me more than double that. 

     

    Or take a coach for a tenner each way? How come rail is so expensive? :lol:

      If this is a non-rhetorical question, then the answer is a State monopoly + cartel deals + private profit + socialised losses.  It's quite literally the worst of all possible worlds.

      What I always enjoy about these statements (whether its a slow day in the news or a forum post) is the fact they have gone off to find something 'cheaper' that you wouldn't expect to be cheaper. Now me? I either go, fcuk thats expensive and still pay it or I don't. I don't then tend to go hunting for things that should be more expensive than a train fare and then aren't. Having said all that, train travel is a rip off.

    Its made of steel but isn't for use on RS firearms. Poor wording on OP's behalf.

    Got any movie suggestions for me to watch on a Friday night chaps? 

     

    I've spent the last half hour scrolling through recent flicks and Reddit's top 250 and just can't decide.

      L3wisD is in really deep shit with my wife,he recommended Love,Death and Robots and since then I've done fuck all around the house so to get myself out of the shit I've showed her this post pointing out "not my fault its his". While on the Airsoft field I consider myself a man of honour off the field however is a different matter😁

      Hey! Waitaminute! 😂

    @Super64 Regardless you're not shifting those at £40 a pop when you can buy them new for half that, which is why I posted it here. Adjust the price is my suggestion.

    Chester mate - complete opposite side of the country haha!

    I'd snatch this up in a heartbeat if I lived nearby. Hope it goes to a good home!
