  1. Legally, the gun shouldn't be capable of full auto if its fps exceeds 378+ on a .20, obviously any site worth attending would veto it as it would invalidate any kind of insurance, making them 100% liable. But some dodgy players try to secretly keep the ability to enable full auto, claiming its the only thing to remedy gearbox lockup.
  2. Why not just buy this one, stick a bigger spring in it & your ready to go, mags n all, £200 (or less 😉)👍 https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/item/64299-cyma-platinum-sr25/
  3. Any gun can be finicky, but gas more so, especially with temperature changes, different power gas etc, assuming the gun itself is set up perfectly ?. Unfortunately a raven pistol isn't any kind of benchmark to judge gas guns by, well maybe the bad ones 😏. So aeg is the way to go, but then you need to consider that some sites expect a dmr to be based on a real world dmr equivalent, not just an m4a1 with a barrel extension. Also dmr fps can vary from site to site, 450/420/400/378 are all fps limits for dmrs I've seen previously. With that in mind, once you've narrowed down your choice, you'll want to make sure the contenders have a quick change spring system, it's the easiest way to alter power output at short notice. & don't forget it needs to be single shot, ideally mechanically incapable of auto fire, as most sites won't accept dmrs that have restricted fire mode set by mosfet. I'm sure someone else will tell you what best out of those you've mentioned. Good luck
  4. I think we as a community need clarification on how EXACTLY does the system work (or how its supposed to work but doesnt😏), what inter-agency communication there is, including how involved the carriers can be, & what we, or the offshore retailers can do to ensure the process is as smooth & trouble free as possible. Who here is a member of, or ideally involved in the hierarchy of any of the airsoft associations such as ukasa (might have got that acronym wrong ?) ect, maybe they can be convinced to open dialogue with ukba/hmrc/carriers to ascertain the precise process, & look at addressing what's going wrong ?. My take is it's likely lack of knowledge along the chain, retailers not labelling goods properly, & carriers/ukba/hmrc not knowing enough about airsoft & it's limitations, being blinded by the fact our kit resemble a gun, so therefore must be a gun😱
  5. Everything that EvilMonkee wrote is correct, & couriers, such as ups, face large fines if they fail to adhere to the rules set by hmrc (& ukba).
  6. @Alex89Type, i see the word "free", & washing instructions ? Edit: I stand corrected, i can see an upside down L, on a curled up label that's angled away from the camera. Would have been easier for members if seller had included the size in the ad text.
  7. @luk1ni & the size is ???????

    G36 & AR Mags

    Hi guys, as part of my clear out, some mags that are no longer needed. Not looking to split the mags from their "siblings". Starting with 10 plastic lo-caps, no markings but possibly made by star, they're grey in colour but at some point i painted them black, they look a little tatty but thats just where some of the paint has come of from contact, all work fine, ideal if youve got a milsim or real cap game coming up. Price is £30 for all ten, if you wanted magpuls on them thatll be another £20. Next is G36 hi-caps, 4 of them, cant remember the brand, all work with my TM, all in good condition & all lugs are intact so they can be connected. Price is £30 for all 4. Next are some more G36 mags, these are lo-caps & I've got 5 of them. condition is like new (dont think I've ever fielded them), & all connecting lugs are intact. Price is £30 for all 5. PS just found another lo cap, the clear "bullet" type, I'll chuck it in for free. Postage will be £4 via a tracked service. Thanks for looking, I'll be adding loads more as I get to it.

    £30

  9. If it's the genuine magpul, I've seen them up for as much as £650 s/h, Rocketdogbert was a particular fan of them if I remember🤔
  10. We've had members here for years with no posts, just lurking lol. Re JohnnyBravo, can't see anything suspicious, all I will say is if anyone chats with him about selling, keep it here, don't be convinced to talk on WhatsApp etc, scammers love it, it protects them.
  11. On the move at mo, I'll look him up shortly, scam or eedjit, it is the school hols after all🤣
  12. Thanks for clarifying that, I should imagine that now most EU suppliers are paying the duty at source, they're focusing on other regions for maximum revenue generation 🤬
  13. Last year ?, so did you receive that order ?, if so is this relating to a new order ? 🤔
  14. I've got the cyma socom, it's stock & even on .20's the range & accuracy has been excellent, & not fussy with brands. I suggest you wait till it arrives & test it with whatever you've already got before buying a load more.
  15. Hey Josh, time for a claim I think, but the tech/shop ?, need to initiate it as it appears to have happened on the return journey to you ?.
  16. Well done mate, looks awesome, sorry I never got the opportunity to pop ip & help you with it, maybe I can when you put the first floor in 😜
  17. @Ayman Small what Cannonfodder said is spot on, reason being is that paypal only allow you one dispute per transaction, so if the seller convinced you to cancel it, & then didn't deliver the goods, you're fooked.

    @Brick212 what did you use to write your username & date on the bit of paper, invisible ink ? Need to redo it with something we can actually see, before your ad becomes invisible too 😏
  19. Yep 🤔, & none of his stuff is marked as sold either ?
  20. I'm going to lock the thread before it gets silly, op has an opinion based on his experiences, others here have a different view.
  21. Aah, his first paypal transaction, that explains it, you need to make sure he's sent your items, he's not likely to see any money until you receive what you're owed. Explain this to him & tell him he'll have to add tracking details to the transaction info on PayPal, showing his parcelforce48 reference number.
  22. Moral of the story is, don't leave expensive kit in your vehicles, theft from vehicles has been rife for decades, particularly in the big cities, blaming the current negative perception of policing is just a cop out, no pun intended, I've never heard of a vehicle being broken in to that didn't have something of interest visible to passing scrotes.
  23. To me it looks sus, most of the sellers ads go back 6-8 months, if hes actually sold anything previously then surely he's already completed paypals usual probation period ?, unless there have been issues previously ?.
