  1. which degree rubber are you running and what sort of energy output are you getting? i find the maple leaf 50 degree (green) can lift up to .48g at 1j, so with lighter ammo and higher energy you could look at the 60 degree (tan)
  2. are they blaming a broken bb for issues of uniformity that could damage an aeg? cos if you're putting a bb in that state into your gat you deserve everything you get......
  3. yeah i've heard a lot of similar stuff about the clones with the handles etc. and i must admit the dutch version rolls off the tongue better than the english lol.
  4. i'd give you an expected lifetime for the og m12, but mine hasn't broken yet..... for context i bought mine before the clones hit the market....
  5. Because they dont have the time......
  6. in fairness cyma's and jg's have a habit of punching above their price bracket in terms of performance these days. don't take much if anything to make some real good shooters out of em.
  7. this i reckon is the strongest argument for learning to do your own tech work. means you can buy in confidence that you can fix any issues that might arise.
  8. if they forgot to install the nub god knows what else aint right. sure the parts list is impressive, but there's more to getting a gun to shoot well than stuffing a bunch of expensive bits in it and expecting it to work better.
  9. i remember during an extended fallback game where we were doing a hell of a job defending, i'd got myself dug into a position where apparently i was nigh untouchable and after about half an hour i was wishing i'd get hit just so i didn't have to deal with the constant stream of wasps crawling all over me. current problem this time of year seems to be getting covered in blackberry juice when walking through hedges, makes it look like i'm just randomly bleeding all over
  10. Ahh technical curses..... Lct didnt run today, warfet decided it didnt wanna turn the motor (tried it in another gun and ran fine so the warfet is good) Of course lending the jg to a mate and the dragonuv still having consistency issues end up having to borrow a mates bolty with no front sight so i'm basically hip firing all day. And despite all that it was not that bad and i got a lot more kills than i had any right to..... Sadly this is why the argument of not bothering to go for fps stems from, get bang on the limit and stuff like this can happen. Funny really, i doubt they were measuring for joule creep or checking pistols for barrel extensions.......
  11. A strategy i used to adopt, until i realised that if they won't call one or two patently obvious hits (ie where the usual no feel clause doesnt apply) then sending a load more is just throwing good money after bad. Although maybe thats because the ones i'm used to dealing with can fail to call a 40-mike....
  12. Honest description is honest
  13. Always saddening when folk cant get their heads around the most simple and basic rule of the game.....
  14. Y'know with all the forum updates recently i'd have thought we'd be able to entice a better quality spambot :P

  15. 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......
  16. 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....
  17. I feel like a floodgate just opened.....
  18. You appear to be correct....
  19. Afaik isnt it -1 reputation? I cant say i've ever paid that much attention to how that whole thing works.
  20. 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.
  21. waaait a second, is this a mack's first where a seller is annoyed at being called up and everyone else agrees with them?
  22. 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.
  23. Everythings different yet the same.

     

    Its weird.....

  24. 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.
