    The problem with "upgrades" is the ability to make a gun perform better often lies in simply assembling it properly with a few choice parts in the places where they really count. Its not a case of buying the most expensive iteration of each component, slapping them together and expecting the end result to be better.

    Are the biscuits and beverages provided? If so can we set the age limit at say, my age minus a year? 😛

    Kinda situational really, depends how far back the spawn is, how realistic the enemy advancing is etc. These days i try to focus more on not getting hit than on hitting other people, so i normally do take the full walk (and generally try a different direction/angle) Ofc the solution is fall back games without fixed respawns, although you still get folks with very short legs who can do 30 paces in about 5m

    a fair point, only really works if you're being honest and giving a realistic interpretation of how long it should take to get back into the action. ofc airsoft is filled with things that only really work if you're being honest.....
  5. Adolf Hamster
    i mean how long are this dudes arms

    can we take a moment to appreciate the position of that foregrip?
  7. Adolf Hamster
    as long as from the enemy's perspective you walk out of their sight and don't come back for a realistic amount of time i don't see the issue.

    so, ummm

     

    this is a thing:

    and they told me they weren't restocking them either......

      the ak isn't as unweildy as you'd think as long as you're not filling the whole front end with aluminium rails.....

      I know that they aren't unweildy ;) My 74u is actually pretty balanced despite being made of granite or something.

      It's just that adding 800 grams right on the tip would make it really unbalanced.

      it's not so bad, had a pretty heavy can on my e&l 74u.

       

      this is going to be a situational thing though, for night games etc.

       

      although granted it does make a stronger argument for getting a 105 over a 74m :P

    same, i mean when you're selling secondhand stuff you're gonna be taking such a loss anyway from depreciation. same with paypal fees, end of the day it's the price you pay for convenience of being able to safely accept money and not worth arguing over. skipping a days shooting is going to save you more money than you're gonna lose in postage+fee's most of the time.
  10. Adolf Hamster
    agreed, both buying and selling it's easier to just give a straight posted price. only time i can see postage being a big enough issue to deal with separately is if you're posting international which isn't a massive issue given most of our members are uk based.
  11. Adolf Hamster
    not really an issue with the pricing here given all the stuff that comes with it, but a dsg on a barrel that length? edit: forget that, looky what i just found: even if it's a recoil model that's a tad steep given the info provided.....
  12. Adolf Hamster

    why did i decide to try refinishing the makarov with aluminium black, soooooo much sanding......

  13. Adolf Hamster
    In theory yes, additionally it'll lose energy slightly faster than an equivalent 6mm projectile so at the same range it'll also have less energy to be transferring over that larger area. Of course if its sub 1j at the muzzle then frankly such an argument is pointless anyway because it aint gonna be layin down that much hurt even point blank.
  14. Adolf Hamster
    honestly so many still don't. you'll get places will kick you off for being 1fps over with the hop turned off but don't bother chrono'ing pistols or care about joule creep. end of the day what matters is that the rounds your sending downrange in-game are within the specified energy limit.
  15. Adolf Hamster
    all you need is the weight of ammo. the diameter is irrelevant for muzzle energy calculations, indeed it only comes into play if you're trying to work out things like drag/magnus lift but that's well beyond the scope of what a site needs to do. it isn't all that hard to take X energy and print out a strip for all the common bb weights showing the appropriate fps, sites are just too wedded to the whole chrono'ing on .2's thing.
  16. Adolf Hamster
    Agreed, cant see any reason why 8mm would be banned. Unskirmishable due to rarity of guns that use it and ammo to fire yes, but not any other reason.
  17. Adolf Hamster
    Fair point, i mean if i coulda got new prices.......
  18. Adolf Hamster
    eh, by the time you worked it all out and did the usual 60% it wasnt far off. such a niche gun i'm surprised it sold at all
  19. Adolf Hamster
    I sold an hpa'd mg42 for only £30 more lol....
  20. Adolf Hamster
    Typical government sheeple, do you not realise they can track you down now you've registered it?
  21. Adolf Hamster
    i was meaning in general sympathising with folk who want to start up this hobby but can't afford to. of course in this case it's very much taking the mick, especially when his criteria are "a reliable gun that doesn't break", well get a cyma ak then.....
  22. Adolf Hamster
    Whilst i sympathise with the guy, there are countless people who want to take up a hobby but cant afford to, why should we help him specifically get his dream gun, especially if he's apparently too proud to run a budget gun? Theres asking for charity and theres taking the piss, this is very much the latter.
  23. Adolf Hamster
    *checks code* yep that's £90 off my windowshopping basket......
  24. Adolf Hamster
    the ultimate series are pretty decent imo, only problem is any issues in the box and the motor will just keep on chugging whilst ripping apart anything that tries to stop it. £380 for an lct ak with no noteworthy alterations? sure the cyma ak mags are good mags but they aren't exactly expensive either......
  25. Adolf Hamster
    tbf marui users aren't the only ones who can deck a gun in shiny and expect it to work better. it's just that the tm recoil platform seems to attract enough of that type of player to make a stereotype. i don't mind it, especially when it makes their guns shoot worse, makes my life much easier
