Tackle replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I like it👍 -
Beautiful............... In a fugly kinda way🤔

Rubber dildo guns: 3rd pic down, some kinda sniper (?) top left corner, can't tell what it is as there's too many bits draped over it. 2nd pic, the mg42 we know about, possibly the mp40 above it & the m3 to the left (top one ?). 🤔

I took cover behind a tree that was considerably skinnier than me, bout 5 players were peppering the tree but not hitting me, I'm pissing myself laughing when a Marshall walks over & confirms "none of you are hitting him", until eventually one of the cross-eyed buggers did 🤣

No idea ? 🤔

Definitely not the norm, but it's collection only so at least someone can check what their getting, I used to live 5 minutes from there, I'd have been on it like a tramp on chips🍟 It's either true & better to get something for it than leave it behind, OR It's dodgy af & he's flogging his flatmates kit before getting the hell out of dodge before his flatmate & his ex get back from holiday lol😏
-
What else do you have ? (I'm not gonna show myself up by looking at the pics & identifying the wrong ones 🤣)

Lost count of the number of times when marshaling a players been reported as not taking their hits, so I've given them an "honesty shot" usually with a pistol from behind in the butt from 40-50ft, & the player rubs where he's been hit but carries on playing.......... Well at least until I whisper in his ear to "go take 10 mins in the safe one & think about whether you want to keep playing today" 😏. No different from what we're discussing here, they make an assumption it's probably friendly fire (or they're not taking ANY hits) & play on....... Wankers🤬
-
Imho, if someone is hit, irrespective of the power of the hit, & they then start to analyse it in their head for the possibility of avoiding taking the hit, they're nothing more than a cheating cnut. No site should be planting the seed in people's heads "if you think it's a ricochet, you go ahead & ignore it" What next, "if your wearing a plate carrier with fake plates fitted & the bb's only hit you in the plates, keep playing cos your feckin invincible".
-
If your not sure, just take it, it's a rare & minor inconvenience, & not worth the aggro when someone is then adamant they hit you. Plus I've been hit directly from low power guns, such as a mates old tm mp7 aep, thing was like a laser, amazing range, but it hit like a feather & very easy to dodge if you see them coming, like slo-mo lol.

@Miêu Anh-Nguyễn, possibly an odd request, but would you consider posting a prototype to a long term respected member on here in order that it be reviewed fully & then returned to you, purely for clarification of any potential safety issues in its use. I think it would go a long way to reassuring the community as a whole & also give validation to its feasibility ?. Edit. I should add that I'm not putting myself forward, if I had to recommend someone I'd probably suggest @Asomodai(if he was in agreement), as he already has a long history of excellent site reviews on here. 👍

Special Forces Replica - What is and what is not realistic?
Tackle replied to LzChase's topic in General Discussion
No problem mate, & I'll apologise if I came across as reactive, not my intent & I should have known better, I've seen enough of your posts to know how level headed you are, my bad. In relation to the thread, i served & have hundreds, if not thousands of hours on the weapons platforms we used, most of which are now available in airsoft variants, but I'll be honest & say if I came across said variants onsite, unless differences between them & their real steel brethren were glaringly obvious it's unlikely I'd spot them, so I think it's safe to say within reason the same could be said of other platforms. Maybe it's just me lol, I've seen some great looking gats, kitted out with nice looking sights & other extras, then you read the "small print" & realise its a nuprol.......... 🤮 -
Special Forces Replica - What is and what is not realistic?
Tackle replied to LzChase's topic in General Discussion
That last bit aimed at me ? Hardly making things awkward, & as I stated, no offence to anyone that's in to ultra realism in their loadouts, but once this hobby/sport gets it's claws in to you, it can get stupidly expensive trying to achieve ever evolving loadouts. I've been guilty of it myself back when I started playing, & still own a ridiculous amount of kit, I'd hate to think what it's all worth, but most of it is just me experimenting via trial & error what works for me, so at some point I'll flog most of it. My point is, too many guys get sucked down the rabbit hole of everything "Leet" or "speshul", & financially destroy themselves trying to achieve what is almost unachievable long term. All too often we see peeps selling top notch kit just to pay household bills etc. Yep it's a free country for people to do what they want (except fuck all is free, not even free will these days😏), but as a community we try to give the best advice with the best intentions, even if it means we stray off topic a wee bit, so be it. But you be you 😉 -

Not trying to pee on anyone's bonfire, so no offence to OP or anyone else, but I don't get the stitch counters, it's airsoft, copying the highest rated military forces of any country doesn't in turn make you special, lol might indicate you are speshul😋, but it's airsoft, use or wear whatever YOU like the look or feel of, 99.9% percent of players on site won't judge or critique you. 👍 -

Tackle replied to RostokMcSpoons's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
There's some pretty good stencils on ebay, brickwork, hexagons, tigers tripe etc etc, depends what you want to achieve, is it something with actual camouflage, or something that stands out as per your fn2000. Personally I've only ever sprayed a couple of my guns, fn2010 & an m14, in both cases I wanted a natural camo effect, so went with random dusting stripes/splodges etc using assortment of krylon. Made a point of removing or masking working parts/barrels. Left a good mix of painted & standard parts & got a lot of positive unsolicited comments on site. -
I've wanted a px4 subcompact for ages, only problem is that I don't want one made by WE😢
