Having unspent monies can lead to terrible things

So.
A 15 yo tried to rob an off duty cop and his gf with a toy gun (doesn't specify if airsoft or IF), got schwacked pretty hard as he took one to the face, 2 to the chest and one in the arm, then got carried to the hospital where he later died.
The boy already had troubles with the law, as did his father and one of his brothers. This episode happened in Naples, which is the same as Marseille but they all speak Italian.
When the family heard about the boy's death, they literally destroyed the hospital's ER causing harm to personnel and other "guests".
Now the mother is complaining that the cop, with an alleged firearm aimed at him, should have:
1) recognized it was a toy gun, even if there was no red tip or anything, at 3 AM in what appears to be a rather dark street
2) shoot the kid in the legs because of course he's gonna carefully aim at the kid's feet instead of putting as many shots as possible to neutralize the threat.
Also her later in the news, when asked about her family being a bunch of criminals:
"committing a crime or two is ok"
This country is fucking beautiful xD

"Seemed to remember it being a woman and in a video clip."
Full disclosure, I know full well which one you mean, but I loves me a good debunking.
This 'un is real:

Had a chance to try the TM scorpion (the modern design one) yesterday, a teammate bought it because apparently he didn't have enough TM stuff (he owns at least 5 recoils and he's been playing for less than a year).
I'll be honest.
It's utter shit.
It really needed to be a GBBR and not a fucking AEP. Especially for the price.
HPA could be the only way to fix it.

Overall performance wasn't impressive.
Range was the main issue, I know it's an AEP and that the box has some quirks because of that. But having to overhop rather heavily to reach 30 metres seems a little excessive to me. I know it's meant to be a fancy electric pistol, but come on.
Also because of the tiny cylinder 0.20s were as slow as the 0.4s I load in my Striker (1J build, you get the idea)
I think he was using a LiPo because the trigger was rather snappy for an aep box and the rof was actually decent, not sure though, I'll ask.
I love the looks, but it doesn't justify the €300ish price tag.
the box has some evident limitations, so why an AEP instead of a GBB?
You get a much snappier trigger, you can actually use a decent bb weight and you have the fun factor of the recoil impulse. Plus the huge magazines help a lot with gas efficiency...
I have also just watched a p*'d skorpion m video. That's what the stock one should perform like.

TM G17, 2nd hand with a leaky mag and the BBU seems to return to battery a tad slow.
yay or nay?
Can probably snag it for less than €50
-
How much would you pay for a 2nd hand Ares CCR? considering they can be bought new for €130 ish
Thinking of starting a Noisy Cricket project. Short gun but L O U D, so loud it'd scare the living fuck out of people.

I have no clue. Will chrono both (his CCR and my frankengun) on Saturday. And yes, 1J limit
It could be a big ass spring, could also be years of negligence, overall the CCR is pretty battered
There is another possibility though, IF this guy wants to sell it anyway, I could swap boxes+motors (my good one goes into the CCR and his bad shit goes into my 009), so now he has a 009 to sell and I have a nice CCR with a perfectly functional and smooth internals.
The only problem I can see with this option is the wire lenght. My box is rear wired, his is front wired. While for me it's not really a problem as I can easily cut down the wires, He needs some longer ones or a small extension.
If that happens then I'm only paying idk, €30 for the body swap.
And if the battery compartment can be detached (haven't tried yet) I could totally fit the ICS front end I have.

Give me one reason to not buy a Visionking 1.25-5x26 scope!

Heh, I see
FFP/SFP doesn't really matter to me. After all these devices won't make one shoot more accurately.
I have found the Vict Optics you mentioned for €40ish, I guess I can give that one a try too!
anyway, I have just found a €30 2x20 optic that could go on my mk23...
Shit, I'm draining my bank account once again

Is it me or eBay prices have skyrocketed?
Plus many items I was following can't be shipped to Italy anymore.
The fock's happening?

So.
Today's episode of Skara's office adventures.
Client unexpectedly shows up, a woman in her late 40s but looks like mid 60s, dumb as fuck with a lower IQ than a shattered brick.
She took some pictures of a room in her building that we needed, but being dumb as hell she can't send them via mail, asked me if I could download them manually via USB
Plugged her phone on my pc and browsed for the right folder.
Obviously it takes some time because there are about 70 million pictures.
Meanwhile said folder is absolutely crammed with really unsettling half nude pics of her, that unfortunately I cannot unsee now.
So, the folder is loaded, I'm about to download those 3 pictures she took but suddenly she grabs the phone and unplugs it, telling me that she'll get her husband to send them via mail and left.
I am now left here, severely brain damaged, waiting for that fucking mail.

Is Maple Airsoft still alive?
Been looking for some gen 2 SuperFeed springs but they seem to be out of stock pretty much everywhere bar Amped and a couple of canoodian shops.
-
Checked my order's tracking.
"failed delivery attempt"
Haven't left the office (ground floor btw) since 8:30 AM and I'm literally next to the door.
What the fuck..

Workmate was on the phone half the day yesterday with DPD trying to work out WTF they'd done with his Espresso machine, and why they'd tried to deliver it to the wrong place, on the wrong day, despite copious assurances to the contrary.
All postal delivery systems are clearly not fit for purpose - it's a wonder that they actually manage to deliver anything at all.

Just a reminder that throwing a bunch of cash at a problem won't automatically solve it.

I think what he's trying to point out is that the titan is a tool designed for a very specific task and it's reliant on the rest of the system performing to a certain standard.
But if done right it does give you functionality that nothing else does, at least nothing without an air line going into it.

Turns out the Ares M-Lok rail comes with 6 shit screws that are too short, they only engage the barrel nut threads by idk, not even a full rotation.
Luckily I had some steel ones, same size, but a mm longer.

FRV has just shipped my order.
Which I made yesterday.
What the fuck?

Which colour for a FRV belt?

https://frvtailoring.co.uk/collections/shooters-belt
Those are the ones without the D-ring (which I honestly don't need).
Colour choice will be hard (or not), because I actually mix match my stuff.
I mostly wear green bottoms and A-Tacs FG top for tournaments and M81 or whatever is clean when playing regular skirmishes.
Nylon is almost always A-Tacs iX + either a OD or genuine MC pack.
The pouches that will go on the belt are in genuine MC.
-
Green every time for me then. It just tends to go with "everything" best and will never look out of place.

Postage will fuck me over though
https://atrg.blog/2019/02/13/replica-review-cyma-cm-045a-aks74u/
I am getting more and more intrigued by this review, I think I have read it 6 or 7 times already.
I think I can get it for relatively cheap, and for sure it'll make for a somewhat nice variation to the standard, boring m4.

ahh yes, forgot you were in italy.
that's the same style as my jg, very handy little gun.
cyma's ak's are good, i certainly wouldnt call it a bad choice (they're the rental gun of choice round here and they seem to hold up to that abuse just fine). of course lct/e&l's exteriors are in a different league but they don't shoot much different.
i'd say go for it, side rail mount with a simple tube optic and a bit of scrim net taped round the stock for padding it's just grand.

Opinions on LBX?
Quality for the price?
Utter bollox?

Absolutely retarded idea, but.
What if I mod a pair of jeans to accept Crye style knee pads?

You useless piece of trash company.
Can't even make a proper fucking handguard.

That feeling when the person you asked a small technical question to is deliberately ignoring you.

Who uses Twitter over Instagram? People who read books with words not pictures ?.
If you have a privileged place on a platform, inspire people and you'll equally lift yourself as you lift others. Troll followers will turn on troll leaders in time as a newer more toxic troll emerges. This clickbait will dry out as each video becomes more indistinguishable from the last.
