  1. Must just be iphone? Not seeing it on android?
  2. Never used g&g but geoffs have served me well in all the guns i've used em in.
  3. I suppose technically they should work, but there's the paper specs and there's reality as you've found out. Even more, for the countries where fps limits are whatever the gun can do without exploding
  4. why not? barrel length has very little impact on performance (when all the other factors for performance are taken into account) only thing a longer barrel is good for it the ability to poke it through hedges for better concealment.
  5. yeah, i was agreeing with you but i opened in a way that sounded like i wasn't lol. can i ask why you were putting nuprol bb's in an mws? surely you'd want a top end gat to be fed the finest food?
  6. in fairness same factory just means same building, the cheaper brands can still use different tooling with an argument being that the cheaper brands use the tools that have worn out to where they're unacceptable for the premium brands. alternately steps with minor benefits can be skipped (eg polishing stages) or perhaps rounds off the line that fail to meet the tolerance spec for brand A get given to brand B who have wider tolerances. and ofc raw material can come in 2 entirely different grades from entirely different suppliers. the tl:dr being even if nuprol bb's are made in the same factory as geoffs, doesn't make them not shit
  7. nope, wouldn't put that monster pbs4 on there i'm pretty sure it'd actually bend the barrel. that is a shiny new e&l who's unfortunate life has brought it into my hands where no mercy shall be applied in replacing basically everything.....
  8. and of course turning it off and on again worked, all this time......
  9. hmmm, looking in settings i do have it enabled for status updates, maybe i'm cursed
  10. has that been fixed? i'm still not getting notifications unless someone @'s me i have occasionally had pm's randomly not notify.
  11. in fairness that's pretty much why we ordered from europe before brexit too.
  12. not sure i'm down with e&l's new method of preventing you from losing the magazine baseplate.....

      nope, they just didn't include it to begin with :P

      Well, can't worry about losing something you don't have in the first place I guess 😄

      maybe that's why their mag springs are so terrible- can't lose their nice mags if you dont wanna use em :P

       

       

  13. indeed, the point is not that we think tg is a bad shop, but that if we have to deal with ups it'd be as easy to buy elsewhere.
  14. some of that is serious failures too, would beg the question what else is wrong with them that this guy doesn't realise.
  15. do i want an sv98?

      well there's really only 2 things i can put down that a bolty will do that my current stock can't:

      quietness- i do miss the hpa silence some times

      works in winter- i do have aeg's, but the dragonuv does not like the cold

       

      i'll maybe mull it over a while, have a krink build planned atm so that should keep my mind occupied and bank balance low for a while.

      I recently picked up a VSR to replace the SRS I sold (because there aren't enough good woodland sites local to me to justify having such an expensive bolty). I'd find it hard to not have at least one bolty on deck. It'll never be as quiet as the SRS was, but it was also about a 3rd of the price of the SRS (at least, how I had my SRS set up).

       

      A Krink project involving some certain repro Zenitco furniture per chance? Words cannot describe how much I regret selling on the contents of that Gunfire order. Ohh the nightmare I'm having obtaining it all again 😂🤦‍♂️

      oh yeah that was you i bought that handguard set off.

       

      yes it does involve those, and yes it really has taken me this long to get around to it :P

       

      have it setup nicely with a 2dp and plan is imma hang that monster of a pbs4 on the end and run tracers in daylight like a madman.....

       

      plans are mainly internal, gonna do a dsg build for no other reason than i'm bored and i've never seriously tried putting one together before.

  16. please tell me that box has a whole rif in it, because that would be such a beautiful mockery of their "firearms declaration" procedures.....
  17. i think its mostly the short mag, i understand they're somewhat rare for the vector.
  18. me too, i think it's mostly because i hate gyms so a day lugging around a heavy pew is my substitute arm workout. although i reckon the jg might even be heavy by the time lockdown has withered what little muscle i had to begin with.
  19. don't get that as much as the old "he's not taking his hits" accusation from people that assume that because you can send .48's over to hit them, that their .2's will be able to reply.....
  20. i did quite enjoy borrowing a mates mosin and running around with just that and a speedloader. none of my own guns are stock admittedly....
