SA Daniel Defence M18 firing pattern wild
Adolf Hamster replied to Pollynator_bravo2's topic in Electric Guns
have you added anything on the front-end like a suppressor? bb's clipping a muzzle device will send them everywhere. -

Adolf Hamster replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
Congratulations, it appears you have indeed won Mack's. Is there a prize? Feels like there should be a prize..... -
Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread
Adolf Hamster replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
from referencing the thread? yes, from the thread itself? no j/k, not all of the jokes are that bad -
Those pics looks like the lever is in good order to me? The springs always look like they're sitting a bit wonky. Out of interest, what ammo ye using? Cyma mags are pretty decent but i have had them bind up something shocking with some brands of ammo with resultant feeding problems.

Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread
Adolf Hamster replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
tbf, i didn't think it was breaking any particular forum rules/suspicious. just a high asking price which isn't really an issue (beyond getting a roasting in this thread). this is absolutely true, you're perfectly entitled to ask whatever price you like, however the purpose of this thread is to give prospective buyers a fair picture of what they're potentially buying. it's a novel approach compared to other forums but it seems to work out. the relevance of the scope is that it's the only thing that appeared to be added to the bundle (insofar as it appeared in the pictures, insinuating it's inclusion). an expensive optic would of course add value to the overall package and hence turn a high asking price into a perfectly reasonable asking price. identifying it as the same rif is important to rule out that you hadn't, for example, purchased the gun from strykerles and were now selling a completely different, albeit superficially similar gun. basically that we weren't doing this: and mistaking you selling a g&p limited edition gun that merely resembled the a&k you'd bought from strykerles which would change our opinions on the asking price. as above, the scope being pictured in the advert insinuated it's inclusion in the bundle. often when people are selling guns sans-optics they either remove the optic to take pictures or specify in the advert "optic not included". i wouldn't worry so much about it, we generally avoid political talk on here so folk gotta get their drama from somewhere good man, hopefully you can find a buyer a bit easier now -

reckon you're right now i think more about it. been a while since i worked on the g&g version, but i do remember the hop unit being a custom setup, which would go with the shorter box. -

Adolf Hamster replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
yeah, maybe he meant g&g? i've not seen enough of both platforms to positively identify although my impression is they're both decent enough externally such that after a bit of external wear and internal modding the oem is probably not that relevant. iirc the g&g uses the v2.5 box whereas the a&k is a standard v2, although i half expect to be corrected about that. -

Adolf Hamster replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
true, but it's still a shady move. public safety announcement, basically link your original ad and point out that without detail on the scope it can't be determined if the £280 extra he's asking for is justified. -

Adolf Hamster replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
wow, that is a new level.... even the scratches match up, it's definitely the gun you sold, externally at least. doesn't even specify what make/model the scope is (or for that matter, if the scope is included) to remotely justify the price increase.... i'm not normally one to post on sales ads when they come up but i'm mighty tempted to link your ad as a PSA. -

Sometimes good to have examples of how to do it properly, to contextualise the lunacy ofc -
I smells a roobit..... Edit: roobit gone edit edit: to get back to the spirit of the thread: Strange brigade think left4dead done by the mummy franchise and you're not too far off. very arcadey shoot through hoards of the undead kind of deal for 1-4 players co-op. the narration is incredibly cheesy, but to the point it's somewhat amusing and whilst the plot is shallow, short (although not quite cod short) and predictable, the actual gameplay is surprisingly fun. be warned however to be incredibly triggered by the guns, for example what looks like a mosin nagant being a 10-shot semiauto because reasons. my general rule of thumb is "is it worth it at steam sale price?" and the answer is yes.

Really!? I hope your joking because otherwise imma feel cheated.....

My gun rings like a bell after every shot
Adolf Hamster replied to steverebo's topic in Electric Guns
You could try a different spring, something longer with a bit more compression at rest. Otherwise precocking will effectively prevent the "boioioioing" after firing. -
Lots of good tips out there already. The thing i'd say is to assume the worst internally and buy based on externals. Many pews can look and even shoot somewhat decently but have some serious gremlins under the hood that even an honest seller might not know about if they arent the type to work on their own pews. This is especially the case for anything with "upgrades". Dont beleive any claims like "shoots like a laser" etc, not because the seller is necessarily stating a false beleif, but how do you know their definition/expectations of a good shooter matches your own? I'm not saying that every secondhand pew is a wreck, indeed i have bought some fantastic pews from these forums, but if you're prepared for the worst (eg budgeting for a proper tech overhaul, or parts if you like tinkering yourself) then anything better will be a bonus. As has been mentioned above use goods+services when paying, an honest seller shouldnt have any issues with this, if they kick up insisting on freinds+family or bank transfer then walk away, there's always another pew.

Tokyo Marui Pistol Red Dot losing zeroing
Adolf Hamster replied to MortalEngine's topic in General Help
sounds like the dot just can't handle the repeated battering it's getting on a pistol slide. not sure i'd expect any non RS optic to survive even the lower tier punishment our toys can dish out. -
bu... but.... science?
-
well afaik frangible ammunition is the most effective at energy transfer, so maybe nuprol bb's?
-
nah, the flavour just ain't right. afaik the only use of melons as bb targets was redwolf showing off one of the airsoft miniguns. i assume that showing off obscene rates of fire is their only real utility in airsoft.
-
i do not like melons. can't exactly explain why, just don't like 'em you mean it's worth paying a bit more to get a quality product rather than just buying any old crap that's cheap?
