https://parcelsapp.com/ I find better to use in most cases. Shows detailed information not usually listed on the contracted carrier. Might be worth a look.

I love me a GBB. Pistol is still a GBB but after finding a good deal on here moved over to the DAS GDR15. Picked up two more since. Light magazines with up to 120 rounds all the fun of a GBB without the cool down or gas faff. Trigger took some time to get used to and mags are still a ball bag to fill but love it to death. Can get adapters that let you run off air tanks and whatever magazines you like (even shot shells) https://airtac.me/ my non gay life partner runs his this way and has loads of fun on walk on days. I think it takes all the fun manual of arms away but no denying it, mag dumping a 300 high cap gives one a semi. Tokyo Marui NGRS systems are really good. They have slight recoil and empty magazine detection so using them is fun. Really good hop and very reliable.

https://www.umarex.com/products/airguns/brands/heckler-koch.html "UMAREX is the world’s largest manufacturer of over-the-counter firearm replicas and the largest importer of air guns in Europe. Founded in 1972, the mid-sized company is now run by the second generation of the two founding families. It has approximately 1,000 employees worldwide. The key to the company’s success has been the acquisition of licenses to build replicas of well-known weapons, which then can be sold without restrictions. Umarex currently holds licenses for the brands Beretta, Browning, Colt, GLOCK, Heckler & Koch, Ruger, Smith & Wesson, IWI and Walther." Not sure where you are getting the parts difference from any info you could link to please?

Yup trade mark thing. Stuff marketed to the EU that does not want to pay dues to Umarex.

Someone please help before I actually go insane

I could be wrong but the URGI rail is MLOK and not KEYMOD. Kyle, if you could let us know the make and modal of the gun or post a better image of the rail so we can identify it. -
My takeaway from this is that I would have never thought a company as I presume as big as Wolverine would not have a range in the R&D department and instead just go out in the car park to test fire.

Have a good way to carry the hop allen key as the rubber beds in so you don't lose it. Something to load the mags that does not become a ball ache, I recommend the EMG electric speed loader. Grease is not a big issue, I paid huge amounts for aeroshell when honestly white lithium is fine. Use the heaviest BB's you can afford. When done for the day press the thing in the image it removes tension on a spring.

From my experience the only reason to changeout the Hop Unit is for ease of adjustment as the Maple Leaf has a wheel on the bottom rather than having to take the barrel out. Only real "upgrade" (if already using .4g BB) I feel is the steel trigger locater. Even when it comes to the Co2 nozzle it seems to be more fragile, gone through over 50 Co3 bulbs on the standard nozzle where as the Co2 nozzle loading arm broke off after about 5 mags.

The ones you have look to be a copy of the Mark 2.0 adapters https://www.tactical-kit.co.uk/unity-mark-20-modular-attach-rail-kit-35309-p.asp which are listed as both fitting the normal arc rails https://www.galvion.com/products/caiman-ballistic-helmet-system and the Viper arc rails https://www.galvion.com/products/viper-interlocking-long-rails . The one you have is a copy of the skeletonized rails that come with the Caiman are prone to being out of spec on the real one. Users of the real ones have the same issues you are having. So if they are to tight they file the adapters until fitting or if loose buy ARC rails. -
I really hope this thread dies and my Mrs never sees it .

I don't like the nozzles they seem to be very brittle, broke the BB pick up bit off the nozzle in under 3 Co2 bulbs. Lost count how many BBs have used on the standard nozzle. Rest of the kit is fine but only part that really seems to be an upgrade is the trigger locator.

I have the Gen 3 and the Gen 5. Recoil is not as strong, has better gas consumption.

I have an Air Arms S410 with a suppresser, comparing it to airsoft guns you would want a gas or spring bolt action rifle or a NBB (non blow back) like a Mk23 SOCOM pistol. Both as boring as the S410. If I wanted something for plinking in the garden would go with something fun like the "ASG CZ75 Marushin Shell Ejecting Gas Blowback Pistol" myself.

So the ladies seem to get on with the likes of PT Armor (like the stuff worn in the movie Black Hawk Down) Its soft and has elastic sides so can conform around the bust for good fit. Then wear whatever over the top. A cooler (as in heat) would be something like a British Assault Vest (good price for a bit of kit that will outlast you). Is good because "it has pouches covering the nips and protects lower back). https://preppersshop.co.uk/british-military-dpm-assault-vest-62566-p.asp https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/8fields-tactical-pt-tactical-body-armour

Umarex don't make anything. They buy licencing rights to trade marks. So if you want to sell a replica Glock in countries they have the rights to you need to pay them.

Where did your forum name originate?
Chev Chelios replied to GenuineGerman's topic in General Discussion
Was playing a lot of Atlas Life and needed a funny bad guy name. Was inspired after watching Crank. In hindsight it was a headache as everyone in game that had seen the movie would just shout "fu*k you Chev Chelios" but it stuck as the same people I played stuff online with also played Airsoft. -
Bits came in from Action Airsoft. Amazing packing and speedy delivery that sailed through customs. Trigger was easy to fit, is super light and I was able to take up just about all the slack. Hop unit would have been super easy as well but took me a min to work out if using the 4UAD rubber you need a TM spec barrel (the cut out is longer). Once I worked this out it hopped .43g and still did not bottom out the adjustment. Not had time to dig the chrono out to test the shot to shot consistency but from firing 5 mags into trash feels like a new toy almost. Excuse the ash not a 20 a day smoker was just burning some wood at the time and snapped a few images while test firing.

Mint, when he says "AEG" he means stuff firing in full auto in this context. My GDR15, GBBR and HPA systems with 400mm barrels all Chrono over 1.3J if I set them up to read 350FPS with a 0.2g BB and then change to a .4g BB. I am not 100% sure on the physics but I guess the projectile stays in the barrel longer and the fact you have more propellant behind the projectile that can expand VS a cylinder in a traditional AEG might be the case. Thanks for the reply. From the photos it gets around 15-20 players. Was looking for the nostalgia of playing at Ambush Adventures Chobham from the early 2000s but I guess it was not to be
