Sorry to say no, not real. Easy way to tell is the screws. They use flat heads since 2017 and even if this happened to be older they are still wrong for the Allen heads. Cyrillic is wonky. That's made from "monkey metal" as well by the looks of it. The rear butt pad section on the stock is wrong. Again sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Can compare directly https://en.zenitco.ru/catalog/weapon-upgrade/

Depending on the toy in question (regarding the quality of the metal used for the spring) and if you are going to the bother of removing the spring anyway I would invest in some threaded rod and 2 nuts. Compress the spring on the rod using the nuts and leave it for a week. I will be very surprised if this does not bring it down to the required power. I now do this myself as by cutting new springs in the past they then "bed in" and come in way under the power I was aiming for.

Off on a tangent - in my 24 years playing with toys I have seen more accidents due to fogging then inadequate eye protection. Hopefully that implies we are doing something collectively right at least.

Like some boxing gyms. You have to wear head gear if under 18 and are strongly advised to wear it regardless of age but the waver lets you box without.

Is it not implied by calling it a "Paintball Mask" it is fit for purpose and use? For instance to sell something and call it "Bicycle Helmet" it needs to carry the CE mark and be fit for use.

You have to be 18 to wear glasses. You signed your life (eye balls) away when you arrive if you choose to wear non full face in the designated game area. Being an adult you get to choose if you want to risk it for a biscuit. If by wearing glasses you put someone else's safety at risk it would be a different story but am very much "if what you do is not hurting anyone else and it makes you happy, crack on". What Tommikka posted is disgusting. Selling something marked as PPE when its in fact not is criminal.

The draw from Paintball back in the day was the realism of the toys used combined with almost losing them back in 2007 makes this stuff almost sacrileges for me.

Oh nice one. Bit of unsolicited advice - Once you have everything set up, put it on and wear it for an hour or so to see if its going to be a torture device. A bit of neck muscle pain is expected but if you have a splitting headache need to adjust the padding.

PVS31 Battery Retention System holds an Exfog with room to spare. Will work with the helmet cover or without, can even set it up without the use of Velcro. Replica https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006574447558.html? real deal https://www.tactical-kit.co.uk/ferro-concepts-pvs31-battery-retention-system-35500-p.asp Can also just Velcro the fog unit to the back and use some bungee attached to the helmet rails to hold it in place.

Any photos? Swapped to https://trittech-us.com/en-gb/products/air-raiders few years ago now. Not had an issue since and I could FOG a DYE Mask.

The machinist that was OEM for Inokatsu M4 line decided for whatever reason to end ties with them in 2014 and started selling direct under the Vipertech Brand. Think that sadly sunk them. Not sure who made the pistols though.

Years ago a shop called Airsoft Dynamics did the same thing in this country. Had someone living in Akihabara Japan that would drop ship most of the stuff to them. If Boom Arms is anywhere near Kwong Wah Street in Hong Kong he will have about 30 places to source stock from most of whom do not have an English presence on the internet.

If you already have it, its easy to tell by the flat or slant back.

MILSPEC tube. Commercial are slightly wider. Buffer tubes are not expensive and it will come off the mount if you have compatibility issues.

For anyone so inclined you can get a product from Plastidip that you paint on the pick and pluck and sets it rock sold. Its like a layer of pleather that seals it all together. Never been a fan of shadow foam myself after trying it for tool storage if water gets into the membrane it seems to stay wet forever.

If I was you I would jump on Reddit or ARF and have a search on the cloner gun forums. Its a big thing in the US gun community building retro clones. Example https://www.reddit.com/r/MilitaryARClones/comments/1ai701w/arms_50_m_rail/ they buying and selling for 800-900 US.

Try https://parcelsapp.com/ pulls from just about everywhere and seems to show every time its digitally scanned into a system unlike Royal Mails. Hope its of some help.

The less propellant you have to use to send the BB down the barrel the more that can be utilised to push the action rearward.

Welcome. Get ready to be the "coolest parent" on the block :P.

24hrs unless "can this wait till payday" conversation happened. Fuck um, I would not give it another thought mate.

How are people experiences with AliExpress? After reading this thread I went back and I had 17 total orders over the £135 threshold in 2024 and never paid tax or duty on any of them. Maybe because they have so many going through that have paid tax at point of sale? or was I just extremely lucky?

On Chrome, Windows 10. No issues here. Have you tried turning it off then on again?

Large zip tie works fine until a replacement can be found.
