  1. LOL, sorry, I arrived late to the party & clearly misinterpreted what I skimmed over. But yeah, all too often peoples "want" for a pet clouds their decisions on the massive commitment, financial & otherwise, to pet ownership.
  2. While I 100% agree with your point, as someone who has: 5 dogs 2 cats 5 chickens 2 ducks 13 cockatiels & 4 budgies, anyone with pets knows vet costs can literally be a bottomless bucket, even insurance has limitations, so there's always a chance that costs will outstrip "resources", but that shouldn't mean an animal can't get the life & love it deserves ?, especially rescues. On a similar vein, very shortly after a friend's sniffer dog was retired from the police, he unfortunately broke his leg, but had it been a couple of weeks earlier, the forces insurance would have covered the 8k+ bill, instead poor doggy lost his leg. Hardly seems fair, but then neither does families having to pay for their sons funeral when said son dies in Iraq or Afghanistan, as was the case all too often. ?
  3. Yes & no, fets, sound generators, tracers, smoke generators, various options for recoil, hpa, wanker guns, the list is seemingly endless. Or, you could run a bog standard aeg with technology more than 25 years old, & still dominate the battlefield. Works for me ? (sometimes lol?)
  4. Sounds like a great plan, except the pikey bastard will probably open a fresh account, & sell your knackered gat at full price to an unsuspecting noob claiming it's in full working order, payment by bank transfer or F&F only....... "no ukara mate, no problem but we'd better keep it on the DL then & F&F it" ?
  5. The pic looks familiar, as does the text, or at least the context, I think he tried it on here previously, & I've definitely seen similar posts elsewhere, whether its the same chancer I've no idea, they usually get short shrift. LOL, probably related to the various pikeys that wander around with a petrol can claiming to have run out of fuel & needing a few quid to get to their wife who's in labour⛽?
  6. Apparently a second hand gun, that costs £495 new, rockets in value to £700 when you add a new hop, spring & a service. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a hop & spring an integral part of any aeg, without either it would be boneyard. Yep, servicing costs money but not essential to sell an aeg, unless of course it was faulty & needed the attention ?. Seller also states it's discontinued, while technically correct, 20 seconds on Google found a UK retailer with them in stock for £495, so I'm still trying to figure out why a secondhand gun, that shouldn't be worth more than £350, £400 at best, is apparently worth £700 ? ? Opinions please, anyone else got a valuation ?
  7. Can't say for all, but I remember one of my g36's was definitely quieter when using a suppressor.
  8. I'm not finding bumblebee's profile, has he been banned or deleted ????
  9. I've previously had some great results with Krylon that remained hard-wearing, one thing I did was to ensure that the cans were warmed up, as well as the items being sprayed, really made a difference in the quality of the finish.
  10. Back atcha buddy, & to everyone else too??
  11. ?Your not supposed to sniff it, by any chance are you from Glasgow ? ?
  12. Yep, but he can't do anything, & the senior admin get a notification & I assume delete him completely, that right @Jedi_Master?
  13. @Grayz1980, no need to suffer with the plantar fascitis, get your gp to refer you to community orthopedics in your area, & then immediately chase them up, tell them it's affecting your ability to go to work & causing massive financial strain, they'll rush through an appointment & you'll probably be offered an injection at your first consult, it hurts like a mofo but usually works within days. They can probably assess the other issues & advise on best course of treatment to go for. But that's not to say don't consider the private route too, it'll be a quicker way to get custom made insoles for your arch problems, but not cheap. Regarding footwear, no two feet are the same, we can all advise you on good quality stuff that suits US, but might not suit you. In my youth as a young squaddie I could wear literally anything bootshaped & still outrun a greyhound while wearing full combat loadout, but nowadays, years of injuries & wear/tear have screwed them royally, had plantar a few times on both feet(never went on its own, Always needed medical intervention), broken bones (currently nursing 2 fractures in my 1st metatarsal that occurred in March & still not healed?), & a crush injury more than a decade ago that needed two ops, the second removed a toe, & still gives problems. My own personal choice in boots currently are Belleville TRU minimalist, super light, cross between a combat boot & a boxing boot, awesome for me, but whether they'd suit you is anyone's guess. Good luck, it's gonna be a bit of a journey for you. ??
  14. Damn, I should have gone to specsavers ? I've now got rid or the right wrongun, Jedi will reinstate the wrong rightun ? There's a lot of dodgy mofos with positive feedback, weirdly usually from fellow new members who are equally as dodgy
  15. @Phillip
  16. @jsuther, he's gone?
  17. LOL, great minds & all that?. Out of interest I saw you mention on an ad that your no longer UK, whereabouts are you located, & what's the Airsoft scene there ?
  18. Give us his username, we can ban him, but hell probably be back with a new username in a couple of days ?
  19. That's nothing, the wankers at Metro went with the headline : "Man who made billions out of death and killing dies at the age of 94" As has already been pointed out, its existence may have potentially saved more lives (good ones anyway, the scumbags probably had it coming?)
  20. The missus got me the latest mw3 (PS4) for Xmas, only had a chance to try it for half an hour, kinda disappointed that it's mainly old maps tarted up, leaves you feeling shortchanged ?
  21. As someone who was looking to "upgrade" from 4 to 5, are the actual graphics etc enough of an improvement to justify the additional expense. I don't actually get to play that much so I'm reluctant to buy an overpriced paperweight, especially as my lad is an xbox user (poof?), don't want him taking the piss out out of me too.
  22. ?
  23. I used to keep a length of curtain wire in the Kit, already plastic covered, stiff enough to push or pull but flexible enough to not damage stuff, add a small crimped ring at one end that's covered with heatshrink at the joint, perfect for adding a small cloth strip for cleaning.
