What design software do you use/

yeah they are painful

only the NGRS Mid or high caps fit no other mags.

I use 0.28g out doors in a TM HK45 but i only use it as a back up i am not going for max range i just want consitance. though a lot of CQB sites I have played at limit to 0.25g for every thing.

how much did that skin you?

my word that's a rare bird. I deeply regret selling my for a pittance years ago.

My Flat mate has got two sadly expensive piles of scrap because Ares don't sell the parts despite both guns are still in production.

Same experience with an AA-12 (pretty much the same gun) it can be used out doors successfully but consider it more of a support gun. Even with out the range the noise can keep heads down.

In CQB i have single handily Cleared rooms by charging in getting a single kill, dying, then respawning and repeating till the jobs done while my team mates just stack up at the choke point.

Been playing for 24 years now there has been some major improvements if you want to modify your gun, but the QC is still spotty as hell and TM is still the only really reliable brand. However in the end if you actually know how to set a hop unit you can still be competitive with stock JG G36.

a long shaft screw driver, long cleaning rod and micro fibre cloth, small rubber mallet, a work mat, gas/battery powered soldering iron, solder, shrink rap (maybe a few deans connectors) a multi tool with wire cutters/strippers.

go to the airsoft sub reddit and read some of the post you'll feel a genius compared to the dumb shit that gets posted. most of people couldn't find their arse with both hands.

Nerf shell so existing trigger for that.

Umarex is a rebrand company. Their H&K GBBR are made by VFC which are considered a higher quality over WE. £500 can get you a decent GBBR however if you want to use them in a game you need 5 to 6 mags and they start at £50 and up depending on manufacture. So a practical GBBR budget starts at around £700. Also even the high end guns require regular maintenance and are much more likely to break than an AEG. You also need to think of a GBBR will suit you. 5 GBBR mags can hold about the same number of BBs as 1 mid cap you have to chose your shots and full auto is pretty much out the window so any hire player will a single high cap can out gun you. I personally only use a GBBR for single shot indoor CQB. I tried outdoors got very frustrated and had to go back to the safe zone to grab an AEG after half an hour as I had reloaded my mags twice was out of BBs and our if gas.

Looking to start a Bulpup project build using a V3 gearbox. Rather than running a trigger bar is there a MOSFET that can be run off an input from a microswitch or is there a microswitch that could be used to bypass the standard trigger connects?

It's relatively common to all high caps especially after heavy use. You are lucky to have never had jams the design is open to damage from debris/deformed BBs.

OP seems to have had a dodgy sale or two and not been on line since September. Which is ashame.

Standard is about 75% of retail value. however two tone and selling as a job lot you are looking at 50% of retail.

Destroyed is a pretty strong word. Unless a gun has been snapped into several pieces i would never consider them unsalvageable. It would be worth looking for a Tech near you to fix the guns. That won't run fowl of the VCRA as you already own them, it should be cheaper than having to rent then buy new guns and if you don't get back into airsoft you have sellable guns.

it's a standardish AR hop you could go CA https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/classic-army-m4-m16-hop-up-chamber-p037 or ZCI plastic hops are decent.

I assume that you have a defence as in a UKARA number? As they only legal thing would be for them to post them to you and you be the "Owner" while they are in the country. it's illegal for them to bring their RIFs in to the country themselves with out a defence and they can't get one. to be honest with the cost of postage the risk of loss they are better off hiring at the site you intend to play at.

But if you fuck up the landing it really takes the wind out of you
