No doubt, after all jedward made £6 million in the 12 months after their first TV appearance, Katie Price another example, been a multi millionaire more times than enough, how many "stars" of towie like Gemma Collins are raking it in. Are they all exceptionally talented ?, or is there a generation of gullible sheep out there who hang on their every syllable & feed their talentless egos by continuing to buy their worthless tat or advertising streams. Is KM the problem, or his thick as shit following ? 🤔

Yeah, but it's so much more satisfying just imagining KM unknowingly contributing to the Russians failings lol🤣, much like his own failings.

Chap in the picture is a local "celebrity", lives up the road from me, often seen shopping in Hythe. 👍

Tell us more about James, what qualifies him to make such sweeping controversial statements, enquiring minds want to know🤔 (is he licking Cumstains lovechild ? 😏)

Don't forget his obvious love for animals 😢

How do you explain the numerous sites that have chosen to ban him for life, are they all overreacting too ? OR Irrespective of the quality of the players he's up against, his attitude, playing style, alleged cheating, & poorly edited clickbait videos portray aspects of Airsoft in a very negative light for all to see ?

Nah, I've got a spare mount & too many scopes. Technically it's for my birthday, still got to decide what she's getting me for xmas😁

😏 Just say when...........

I'm 100 yards from the beach, as well as herons, we had to contend with those bastard black cormorants, ended up having to net the pond, nothing else was guaranteed. Got rid of it all now though, too much like hard work keeping it happily ticking over, built a detached conservatory enclosure & hot tub instead, much more relaxing, especially with a cold one🍺

Yep

Sort of already started, birthdays Xmas eve so the missus has just bought me the cyma vss that popped up on here earlier, always fancied trying one as it's one of the few soviet bits of kit I like the look of. 🤔

Never mind the optics, look how many types of bacon they've got to choose from, lucky bastards 🤤🥓 I wouldnt worry too much about the optics, if you're purely an airsoft shooter then your average AliExpress kit is more than up to the job👍

LOL, I made my own defence, seems to satisfy people. 😁

Are goats optional ?

Completely agree, 100%, you give a kid a rifle & they fuck up, gotta take part of the blame for not driving home the responsibility of gun ownership. My son was around 9 when he first attended a skirmish, presented himself well, obeyed the rules & didn't let me down. BUT, he has an annoying habit of saying "I know" when your telling him something important that needs to sink in (I blame his mother lol), so when I bought him his first rif & gave him "the talk", & he said "I know", I made the conscious decision to allow him to keep his guns in his room, secured in gun bags, but with no bb's, batteries, or gas, that way I wouldn't have to replace any flat screen tvs, or explain to his mates parents why their lad lost an eye. Fast forward, the rules still apply, he's 26 & still lives at home, & has quite a few rifs. Some might say I've been too controlling on this, but to explain a parable situation, he's been with his longtime gf bout 6 years, pair of total nerds who would always both admit to having no maternal instincts, never wanting kids, so I'd always warn him "belt & braces son, take nothing for granted", & of course his default response would as always was "I know", & I'd roll my eyes lol. BUT I now have a 3yo granddaughter, love her to bits but who was right, me ffs😤. I think when it comes to involving anybody else in ANY shooting/projectile pastimes, whether that person is young or old, I take the same attitude as when I'm driving/riding, assume everyone else around you is an idiot lol.

Welcome, take some time to look around, then you'll realise no ones actually endorsing "pellet" guns, we use Airsoft rifs here, specifically non lethal to pretty much everything. Are you here for the Airsoft ?, or trolling & spam ? 😏

You read all the same text as me, but I was able to deduce that it was highly likely he was a kid (no offence op), there's the first no-no. Regarding the legal text as to "use" & being satisfied of said use, the seller cannot knowingly guarantee the op has the best intentions, he doesn't reside within the same household & a court would likely argue that the word of a developing teenager wouldn't be enough to guarantee a rif would be kept appropriately. Let's be honest about it, even the gifting clause was never meant for anything more than a parent to buy their offspring the equipment to enable them to play together, who's ever gonna spend £150+ on a rif & freely give it to someone else's kid, that sounds more like grooming to me. The law on airsoft rifs isn't perfect, & can be difficult to navigate, especially when every month or two forums such as this get enquiries about how to circumnavigate the law, sometimes new players who genuinely want to get in to playing, & sometimes blatantly just want a rif, often with no wish to follow a lawful route to ownership & who I frankly wouldn't trust to not wave it around in public at the first opportunity. I personally feel that the genuine players amongst us have a moral obligation, just meeting the vcra requirement verbatim isn't necessarily enough, all too easy to sell to a legal but clearly irresponsible buyer, who's actions down the road might affect all of us & our ability to play (to that end, on the rare occasions I've sold a rif, even pre vcra, I look at post content etc, might sound a bit 1984 but that's my choice). The flip side is I've known plenty of mature teens who I would trust to behave properly.

@Cannonfodder, cheers mate, talk about kill the mood, now everytime I think about his mates mum, I picture a woman that looks like Jimmy Saville 🤢🤮 🤣

Dude, if your gonna give advice on a public forum, make sure you know what your talking about. The op cannot purchase a rif, he has no defence of any sort, he's never played before, & the tone of his posts indicates to me that he's probably under 18. The absolute only way he can get a rif without infringing on the vcra is if it's gifted to him, with no payment of any sort, my earlier comments were purely banter. Personally I'm not a believer in the vcra as a way to legitimately curtail gun crime, & if people with 100% honourable intentions want to sensibly fiddle with the grey areas in order to use rifs on an insured skirmish field, good luck to them as long as they use common sense at all times. OBVIOUSLY I WOULD NEVER EVER RECOMMEND THAT COURSE OF ACTION ON A PUBLIC FORUM. 😏

But it happens all the time with no legal complications........ On Pornhub🤣

No, definitely not. But if your friends mum wanted to buy it & then gift it to you, that would be fine, just so long as no money changes hands. Although, How you show your gratitude to your mates mum is between you two 😏. 😜

Edit, I should say back in my ice hockey days, freeze spray was "medicine" of choice for everything that hurt, probably helped by the fact that I was lean & muscular, unlike now lol. You & I are targeting similar issues, but approaching them from different ends of the age/fitness spectrum, so hopefully all our experiences are of use to other members going through similar stuff🤞. LOL, I've definitely got no shortage of bigger softer areas🐖, been a very long time since anybody described any part of me as bony🤣
