  1. Lol, that was the price of my first tm hi-capa, s/h, completely stock, kicked like a mule & shot like a laser. #TMFTW 👍
  2. I'm the same, see stuff in the classifieds sometimes & think "wtf", but don't know enough to say whether or not its a pisstake. for me, if a £70 pistol does what its supposed to, good enough for me, I'd have sleepless nights if I spent £450 on one 😭
  3. lol, that just confirms what we knew all along, he's clearly a knob 😆
  4. me, 56 plate Mitsubishi L200 Trojan, owned from new & just keeps going with very little outlay, so cant see any point in changing it yet. got a bike (xt600e) & a Renault rx4 but their sorn at the moment as not currently needed.
  5. Thing is, there are so many variables that could inevitably end in joint issues etc, for starters have a look around the average safezone & you'll see every body shape, from stick thin to morbidly obese, & it could be argued that most will load up with more kit than they need (or are used to), & when the whistle blows charge off across rough unknown terrain, every step inviting potential life changing injuries, & who's better to run the risk, the stick thin teen with still developing but very limited muscle mass, or the obese porker who while he's unfit, at least his body is attuned to carrying extra mass. its a minefield, so to speak. im not bashing the training plates as such, after all they're only a weight & at least being worn close to the body their prob less detrimental than a loaded backpack that may swing around if not loaded & worn properly. but any weighted training aid needs to be worked up to, your exercise routine needs to have peaked & is maintainable at your current level before you add to it, for many airsofters putting on a pc & loading it with mags & water etc may already far exceed what their used to, especially if the don't have a regular exercise regime, & adding weighted plated because the may have read it's "the thing" at the moment isn't gonna turn them in to athletes overnight. im going the other way with my load-outs, a number of rigs according to what's needed, but for the average skirmish I'm going light as possible, enough water & mags for an hour, top up back in the safe zone, I've nothing to prove & am already carrying enough timber lol.
  6. I get your point, & on the whole agree with 99% of, sometimes there's too much snobbery & elitist behavior in the sport especially regarding kit & guns but...... I do feel that forums, this one in particular, much of the "advice", which sometimes may come across as scorn or pisstaking, is actually being offered with the very best intentions, usually by players who have based their comments on their own experiences, which at times they've had to learn themselves the hard way. personally, I'd always try to impart my own "life lessons", some of which may be viewed as mistakes, in the hope that others may then avoid the same mistakes, or at the very least approach them with caution. that's just me, although I have been accused of blowing my own trumpet ?. cant please all the people all the time lol.
  7. lol, that's probably why they were in the raffle, when it comes to actually selling them, they can't give them away 😉
  8. can someone translate, I don't speak Chav 😏
  9. lol, none of it is brand new, your not a retailer are you ?, therefore its all second hand, & the way your posts are written tells me your attempting to deceive people, not a good sign, might work on zin but not here.
  10. hey mate, good luck finding mags, not wanting to sound negative but in nearly 20 years of playing I don't think I've seen famas mags come up for sale, might be an idea to edit your post for pointers to retailers that might have new mags at better prices ?.
  11. This advert is COMPLETED!

    Hey Guys, I'm a big fan of edc manbags, so typically I've got too many, & I've come to realise that I'm a bit of a Maxpedition gear whore, so I'm gonna sell some of the others. Today I'm posting up my Hazard4 Evac Plan-B, probably one of the coolest manbags in existence, very distinctive in shape & it has many quality features. This has been my "go to" bag for a couple of years now, especially for air travel as it comes in under the dimensions for carry on luggage. Mine comes with some extras, as standard they have a moveable padded Velcro divider, handy for separating contents & protecting fragile valuables such as cameras, mine comes with 2 extra dividers, which also help the bag keep its shape when not fully loaded. Also, as you can see from the stock pics, on both sides there's molle webbing, as well as a drop in pocket on each side, to give me some extra carrying capacity I fitted two full length Tactical Tailor hydro pouches, good quality & give extra capacity without looking overtly military in the way that regular "boxy" molle pouches do, which is a plus when passing through customs etc. The two hydro pouches are secured with malice clips at the top, but the lower sections are secured with aftermarket quick release clips, which allow you to access the hidden drop in pockets on the sides quickly if needed. The overall condition is excellent, the only tiny fault is on the main strap near the buckle, on a recent trip to Cyprus I noticed the softer inner material had started to fray, I made an "on the fly" repair to it to stop it fraying further, it's not noticeable in use & I doubt it will reoccur but better I mention it now, I have taken a pic to show my needlework lol. Heres the manufacturers blurb, explains the bag better than me: Being jammed in confined spaces for hours is an unfortunate part of the business for many professionals we serve. Whether it’s a military unit in a personnel carrier, a pilot in a cockpit, drivers in a HumVee, or a journalist in the back of a goat truck, they all have to bring their gear, and all may need to ‘relocate’ in a hurry. This is the environment for which our Evac™ line of sling-packs has been developed. Slim shaped, for fast maneuvering in crowds, they can be stored in vehicles/lockers, and are quick to take on or off. They are also ambidextrous, and unlike others in this class, are actually comfortable to wear. The main padded strap is cocked at either the right or left lower corner, so the pad aligns ergonomically in the correct body-hugging direction. There is no slack, or gapping away from the body as is typical with similar single shoulder packs. The bag can be rotated to the chest for on-the-go access, and all pockets are designed to face the user in this mode on either the right or left side. This means the user can go from wearing the pack on his back, to driving a vehicle with it on his chest in just a few seconds. One-strap also makes shouldering a long-gun natural - unlike a regular backpack _ the total-customization Evac™ w/ full molle coverage _ 3-d thermo-moulded back-panel for support w/ flex _ padded, movable internal divider like those in photo bags _ small top-zipper to pass long objects like antennas/barrels _ side elastic-topped-pockets for water bottles, knives, etc. _ compression-straps also cross to secure large objects _ relatively large volume will hold bulky items with ease _ generously padded back with air circulation pad array _ 3-d air-mesh under strap for ventilation & comfort _ full hydration bladder compatible: can fit hydration bladders up to 67 oz./2 L; can also fit 3 L hydration bladders but only filled up to 2.5 L capacity _ one large pocket for access while on chest w/ organizer _ one smaller stuff-pocket for gloves, etc. w/ patch area _ large grab-handles for carrying and pulling to front/back _ trap-door pass for hydration hose w/ large bite-valve cover _ internal mesh zip/elastic pockets for organizing items _ top-open panel zipper can be accessed while on chest _ wind-flap zippers on all pockets to keep out the elements _ 3-d, padded shoulder strap built without any sharp edges _ large, locking side-push buckle is easily indexed on chest _ stabilizer strap links to either side (keeps bag from sliding) _ top/bottom compression-straps, also secure tubular items _ velcro patch is a recessed window style _ compression straps can cross on sides & over top _ more flexible shoulder strap-pad Weapons Accommodations: _ hydration area loop-fastener for our modular pistol holster _ all-round molle webbing for attaching holsters/mag pouches _ large external pockets fit multiple rifle/pistol magazines _ side flat-pockets for paddle holsters or rifle magazines I think I've explained it fully, there are plenty of reviews of these on the net, & they're all very positive, if anyone needs any more info or pics just holler, price includes fees & a signed for service. Cheers Mark Bump & a price drop to £65 a muppet on another forum made me a silly offer, when I knocked him back he got arsey saying it was "well overpriced", so for anyone interested, the bags themselves retail around £100 (although I've seen them as high as £140), the extra dividers are about a tenner, & the TT hydro pouches were about £32 EACH (when available), s/h usually around £18 each.....grand total of around £174.......which makes mine, at £65 ALL IN, a massive saving on new & even lower than the usual "Airsoft equation " for pricing s/h kit. I wouldn't usually feel the need to explain my prices, but what can I say, he gave me the hump.

  12. lol, I wondered what he was on about, addict ?, on my phone I don't get all the forum features that you get on a pc etc, realised the forum automatically gives us little monikers, I'm guessing due to postcount etc, all I can think is luckily for Lee_3120Airsoft, there doesnt appear to be one called "ignorant dirty Cnut" for noobs who behave like twats. mods, can you make one ? 😜
  13. Yep, more activity in that section means your ad gets pushed to the bottom of the page quicker (& beyond), & if someone's looking for a rig, they're gonna be looking in the gear section, not rifles, so you've potentially shot yourself in the foot, so to speak 🤡
  14. nice, but its not a bullpup though 😉
  15. lol, if NOT buying crap kit at overinflated prices means I'm stupid, then I'm guilty as charged. Good luck with the sale 👌
  16. lol, as your a noob we'll explain, the whole purpose of this thread is to highlight ridiculous sales, not just on here but from anywhere, & lets be honest yours is laughable. your reply's just show your not only a dirty lazy Cnut fir not giving it a wipe over, your also a mug for shopping anywhere with bbguns in the name. thanks for giving us a laugh, have a nice day 😜
  17. Second pic the same gun ?, looks more gunmetal grey (which I likee a lot😀)
  18. Wot, you not old enough to remember Speedy 😏 Lol, more meat on a sparrows kneecap 😜
  19. yep, trying to go as minimal as possible, giving up on thigh rigs so just ordered a small shoulder bag, I'll slap a couple of mag pouches on it, that over one shoulder & a rifle on the other, I'll be like speedy Gonzalez 😉
  20. Blud, that's harsh, cant ya cut my bredwin some slack, ya get me doh 😜
  21. Best game I ever played was a weekender in the snow at rype village (awesome mod training area), it averaged -10 all weekend, & everybody loved it, at the time quite a few players didn't make it due to atrocious conditions over the country, but those that did stuck it out, no quitters, which is a rarity these days.
  22. Lol, your prob right mate, I'm generally looking at the lightweight options for most things....... (except me dinner 😏😜🐷)
