Quick 30 second review of the ARSUK pistol case off Amazon
Tackle replied to DanBow's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Sounds like a typo from people that don't know the difference, or have a poor command of english/meanings. It's design clearly wouldn't be waterproof for any kind of sustained immersion. Now water resistant, that's a different matter🤔 -
There's a lot here, me included, that are inclined to agree.

& not one forum interaction, just comes here to flog his "new not new" rifs, a real active contributing member of the Airsoft community.

I wonder would the hmrc have a different opinion on that ? 🤔

No one by choice, but to be fair it did used to have a great site at Ft Amherst, sadly missed 😢

Anyone played the siege project in Stoke?
Tackle replied to concretesnail's topic in General Discussion
Pisses me off when "members" join just to BIG up a site etc, only to never again post, unless it's to attempt to defend a really bad review😏. FFS, admit your personally involved with a site, & take responsibility for the bad shit as well as the good. 🤬 -
Gutted for the guy & his family, as someone that's on their own cancer journey, his age feels like the biggest kick in the nuts, he should have at least another 40 years in him, life is so unfair. As has been said, I wish him a pain free journey & pray that he gets as much quality time with his family as possible. 😢

Bit more info needed please, ideally recent shenanigans @Roger_rtmay have attempted ? EDIT: Your first post wasn't very clear, but just seen the feedback you've left him, everybody say bye to Roger_rt

I say "bring back the bush"....... Are we still talking about Airsoft ? 😏

As gavinkempsell has pointed out, we had plethora of "death by gun" incidents, some were illegal firearms, but some were, & sometimes still are, legally held guns, so the laws became more restrictive. BUT As airsofters we came under scrutiny because at the time anyone over 18 could buy a realistic imitation firearm (rif), & so scumbags did & used them for criminal acts, this created a lot of problems, not least because at the time armed officers comprised less than 5% of the police, spread thin on the ground, a situation made worse when they were then tied up with crimes involving non lethal replicas that were easily obtained, & sometimes crimes involving genuine firearms were difficult to get suitable personnel in attendance. & don't get me started on the complications if an officer shoots someone, months of paperwork & suspension of duties even if its a real gun, but even worse if it's a teen (etc) with a replica. So the vcra came in to try to reduce the availability of replicas, doesn't do anything to prevent the use of real firearms, & most airsofters think it's very unfair on us. But the truth is we were very lucky not to lose Airsoft completely, or all to be forced to two-tone everything. So when noobs come on trying to circumnavigate vcra/ukara, understandably some of us get the hump, because everytime the law is broken it has the potential to wreck the fragile status quo we exist within. Yes & no, see above

Are you guys just spamming for the sake of it ?, I think you need to read the thread from the beginning, & if you still don't get the context, clear off ya scammin gets 😜

Nah fuckit, we're all good naming & shaming here, we try to look out for each other & that includes warning each other if a site isn't worth the green fees (& all the other costs associated with attending a game)

Then you'd better get your nan in the pictures 😜

Seems someone has found a way to make the VFC Gustav USEFUL!!!
Tackle replied to Lozart's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I used a laughing emoji, but having blown it up (no pun intended), I've changed my mind & gone with a sad face, 'kin ell, is that his nose all split ?, looks like a pair of bollocks on his face😱 -
Thought I'd share this, not here,over on zin, thankfully guy was wise to it, but the scammers are getting better with photoshopping stuff, as usual targeting wanted ads. Keep up with due diligence, if the seller doesn't have considerable feedback & forum presence then ask for more info, & maybe some staged pics, get his nan in a picture holding the gun lol, & lastly, only ever pay via Paypal goods & services, never f&f or bank transfer, or if you can, collect it in person. https://forums.zeroin.co.uk/forum/classifieds/rate-a-trader/3324582-qt09-scammer-avoid

My take: 1. most airsofters are fickle, me included, one minute "x" gun is the best thing since sliced bread, 5 minutes later, there's something new their going gooey eyed over. 2. TM are considered a sound investment & hold their money better than most brands, so when moneys needed quick, you know you'll not lose much flogging it.
