Tackle

Obviously you've never been to Thanet, or Lydd 🤣

Only had 2 injuries when playing, both at the same site, Ft Amherst in Chatham. First was when an unseen 50 year old coil of barbed wire hooked both feet in dense bushes, just as I was about to jump down a 5ft ledge, would've been an extreme faceplant but for the fact I'm a well disciplined old soldier, kept the rifle in my shoulder as I dived towards the ground, buried the entire barrel vertically in the soil, so all the force went straight in to my chest/shoulder, thought I was done for at the time, & my upper torso was black & blue for weeks afterwards. But thank the gods, my TM M4 escaped unharmed lol🙏. Couple of months later, took another dive down about five stone steps in what was known as the chapel, landed on a stone floor, initially thought I had a few bumps & bruises, later in the safezone one particular bump on my elbow wouldnt stop stinging, closer inspection revealed a 6mm BB buried well under the skin, but with only a tiny entry wound, much smaller than the BB itself. Ended up with a mate massaging it towards the surface, & then "popping" it like a big zit, forcing it back out through the much smaller hole. Needless to say it came out with quite a pop, lol prob hit 1j on its way out, & made a few onlookers heave in the process 🤮

Thanks, Ozzy's 12 or 13, getting a bit deaf & eyes clouding a bit but still behaves like a pup, unless he gets a sniff of a rat around our chicken houses, then he turns in to the Terminator lol. Had to google Tornjack, yep, not gonna be little lol😳. Good luck with your homecheck, only advice I could offer is make sure your garden is 100% secure, real bugbear for most rescues. 👍

My dogs currently lol, top left to bottom right, "Bodhi" the chi, "Louie" the chi, "Elvis" the chi, "Frank the Tank" the pug, & our oldest, "Ozzy" the parson Jack Russel

Lol, maybe when they say "military", they really mean Navy 😏 For me, it's literally any aftershave/perfume advert, who the fcuk actually thinks Johnny Depp out of his nut burying his jewellery in the desert is gonna encourage me to buy their gear ?, or women screaming at the moon etc...........that's the norm in my house, we call it the menopause lol.

I know we've gone completely of topic (not like us lol😏), but it's reassuring to know that we're in good company & feel it's ok to be open about these things. Thanks guys 👍

Lol, if we're all on SSR's, a dick measuring contest is the last thing we need 🤣

All I can say is, thank feck for Sertraline 🤗

🤣that's brilliant 👍 (Having seen the film a few times I can literally "hear" the characters laughing at the crap we discuss 🤣)

Intimidating lol, we're pussycats 😹, try the arrse forum, they'd have Schwarzenegger crying into his milk 🥛 & cookies 🍪 . seriously though, this is literally the most helpful forum, but nobody wants to spoon feed a lazy noob who won't use the search button, especially when they ask about "buying a ukara license" ffs🤣 Obviously the other thing that irritates us is scammers, who are always trying new tactics to get their foot in the door, thing is if we're ALL not on our guard, then they get their claws in to one or two new members, rinse them of a few hundred quid each & then disappear before word gets out, it's that simple. example: Ben7, joined Friday, by this evening he had 15 posts up, not one indicated he knew feck all about Airsoft, just posts showing his agreement on things or expressing pleasant sentiment. reported & now gone I believe, hopefully before he could do any harm........well done mods on acting on concerns raised, if this was Zin he'd go untouched for weeks, or longer, & woe betide anyone who tried to out him.

Yeah but at least you show some manners when spamming. Regards 😜

Is it just me or does it seem like we've got loads of new members, most of whom seem content to tack nondescript comments on to lots of threads, but with no real value or knowledgeable input. Obviously the biggest concern is scammers trying to appear legitimate by getting their post counts up, do we need more screening or restrictions on new members ?

Waste of a couple of m14's, real shame😢

Post means nothing without a pic please, something for us to drool over 🤤, ideally if you could write your username & today's date on a piece of paper & include that in the pic, that would be great 👍

Lol, I thought San Marino was the arsehole of the world & you wouldn't piss in them if they were on fire 🤣

Lol, yeah the cynical side of me assumed that from the off, they'd better put it away for a rainy day, reckon even if the event goes ahead, threads like this (which I'm sure there'll be more elsewhere) are gonna make people think twice, this event & stuff in the future.

Thing is, given that they've had mixed reviews at previous ai500's, not entirely sure why they would contemplate another event with the potential to be such a monumental screw up, the fallout will screw with their future client base massively. We can all see it, why can't they ?

Aaaaaah🥴, I'm a dopey cnut who really shouldn't look at my phone without my glasses on, obviously I'm getting mixed up with 6mm ammo, ignore me from now on lol😎

Sorry to hear you've had a slightly poor service, thought I'd add my tuppence worth, I've also ordered from them twice, both times prices were very good (probably had a deal on🤔), & turnaround time was around a week at most. To be honest though, my orders would have been for bog standard .20's , were your orders for much heavier bb's ?, often in short supply ?

as it should be uk wide 😡, well done to the Welsh (& Scots ?) for securing such a set up, although does make you wonder why England couldn't manage it.

Yep, don't think they pay to go to uni either ?, amongst other freebies ?

For TG to mention or contemplate suing indicates ups have not filled their contractual obligations, BUT there's no way a massive firm like ups won't have loopholes in the small print indemnifying the from "delays beyond their control", hence why TG will have to back pedal & continue using them. Sure they could have looked to another courier to take over their shipping needs, but that would have meant ups would expect all accounts to be settled, which could be a hell of a lot of money to find at short notice, given worldwide duties etc.
