  1. indeed, i left a site recently because of their consistent failure to do anything about the standard of play. don't get me wrong, you're never going to escape from cheating/general douchery but a site you can have faith that telling the marshalls there's an issue will result in some form of action has value.
  2. no no, face shots aren't punishment, they're just normal gameplay, it's our fault for not wearing face protection......
  3. Agreed, the court of public opinion doesnt exactly have the greatest track record of getting it right and the only thing worse than what this guy did is falsely lampooning some poor bugger for the crime. The guy who did it deserves the banhammer but lets let the site do that after doing their due diligence.
  4. agreed, i'd probably have propped it up against the tree it was next to. agreed, i'd probably have propped it up against the tree it was next to.
  5. i'd be concerned that the outer/inner barrel might have been bent, considering it's a dmr platform messing up accuracy is a bit of an issue.....
  6. Y'know with all the forum updates recently i'd have thought we'd be able to entice a better quality spambot :P

  7. I agree the e&l is the superior gun out of the box, at least comparing new buys. I just wish i hadnt found out by buying a new lct Also gunfire doesnt charge extra for spring downgrades (although it appears they preferr to chop the stock spring) Edit: also the e&l comes with the magwell spacer out of the box......
  8. Cant say i'm sold on that The ground is brown rather than green and it looks like the fella detoured specifically to stand on it. Plus the foot placement is too careful.
  9. i think we have a winner for the cardinal airsoft sin right there.... i must admit, in general at least, there seems to be much much less of this sort of thing (including safe zoen theivery etc) in airsoft than i'd have expected. although i'm still one of those everything is on me or locked in the car types of players. i sincerely hope that fella finds his supply of sites extinguished and your mates gun is ok, although it seems to have taken the abuse rather well i'd still suggest getting it looked at.
  10. Some very tense games today, had a few issues with a plate carrier/plot armour type earlier on but rest of the day was pretty on point. Seen to have found the favour of the leaf gods apparently, spent a good chunk of a fallback game hiding behind a bit of a hedge that had no right stopping as much plastic as it did. Was pleasantly surprised to find the lct worked pretty much flawlessly all day without major issue. Of course managed to lose a mag, the hubris of friction based holders....
  11. Afaik isnt it -1 reputation? I cant say i've ever paid that much attention to how that whole thing works.
  12. probably because this thread works both ways, if something isn't overpriced (like our very recent case in point) then it doesn't get crucified.
  13. waaait a second, is this a mack's first where a seller is annoyed at being called up and everyone else agrees with them?
  14. figured it'd be worth adding to the pile of glowing reviews. ordered a few bits and bobs over the years from ak2m4 thanks to this site's recommendations and as with everyone else always had good fast delivery. last order i had a rocket motor with a bit of an issue ended up contacting pete who sent a pre-paid postage label to return and swapped out the motor for a new one. on top of that he's been very communicative and helpful about the build from a technical standpoint. all i can say is that's about the best customer service you could wish for which is a rare commodity in the airsoft world.
  15. Everythings different yet the same.

     

    Its weird.....

  16. The issue your fighting is this: https://www.taiwangun.com/en/electric/cm-028c-cyma Same gun, brand new, and without 2-tone if you have your ukara for £35 less than your asking price (from last i checked just before writing). The general (although not exclusive) rule of thumb is ~60% of retail for a secondhand item. This thread for sure is a strange way of evaluating the classifieds, but it can work well if you take it in the spirit of the same kind of banter youd find in your average airsoft safe zone. You are of course free to ask whatever price you like, and you may be able to sell just fine, but at least now you know what you're competing with.
  17. I'd question, without further information at least, the quality of a shimming job when a "lightly skirmished" 2-tone suggests an inexperienced owner. Maybe he had a tech, or a more experienced mate do it, but it's not explicitly stated.
  18. hmmm, think i'm changing my opinion on lct....

      their reputation was certainly good.

       

      i mean maybe i've got a friday afternooner on the gearbox but the rest of the elements are still not ideal.

       

      maybe nuprol's ownership and getting them to make guns for them has had an impact.

      I've heard enough about lemons from both sides to be fair, only ever purchased/used LCTs but had a go with E&Ls and they've both been great. I think the best bet is to lean to whatevers cheapest and that tends to be E&L now that Nuprol have price hiked the LCTs, fire support is no longer my go to for 'premium' AK shopping like it has been 😐

       

      Can't you just unscrew the hop and push it forward? I'm pretty sure I can do that with my 74u to get at the gearbox without removing the outer barrel, etc.

      i've done a bit of a review which includes photos of the hop unit issue. at least once i get the photos to load.

  19. dear airsoft manufacturers

     

    please stop using press-fit pins that require removal for regular maintenance purposes.

     

     

  20. all we need is the seller to come and tell us which one of us is right now don't worry man, we won't tell
  21. yep i'd wager his subconcious is responsible for the price because it knows he'd regret selling it.
  22. Looking at the description i dont think he actually wants it to sell
