  1. There's one in John Wick. And one of the chaps in Seal Team uses one on and off. There are others which escape me currently...
  2. It's Pewsday!
    Is there a better feeling than a new gun day?

    It's nowt special. But it will be when I've finished with it!  😄

      @Steveocee - lol
      It's an ASG MK23 with a couple of mags.
      220m mm CJ barrel
      Autobot rubber
      Fang plate
      Hadron TDC
      And at the moment, with .43s it's ranging poorly at around 60m - but, it's only around .8J for some reason - so I need to investigate!
      Didn't have much time when I stuck it all together, so am hoping it's an easy fix.
      Bizarrely, my mk23 sidearm is now a DMR, as the FPS on that has skyrocketed!
      So my sidearm is a DMR and my DMR is a sidearm 🤣

  3. Cheapest in the UK ever?... https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/marui-gbbr-m4a1-carbine-airsoft-gun-save-76-was-465-now-389 £389???? That's pretty darned good. Now the question is..... is the GBLS really 400% better than the MWS?
  4. £400(inc delivery) 5 months old with three extra mags and a sling... Or £403 (inc delivery) brand new with warranty and three extra mags (but no sling)... https://www.bztactical.co.uk/kwa-ronin-tk-45c-aeg2-5 https://www.bztactical.co.uk/kwa-tk45-120-round-magazine-3-pack Now for my money, that would have to be a fricking awesome sling for me to forgo a warranty...
  5. Quick question - has anyone used these in their MWS: https://www.bztactical.co.uk/asg-blaster-devil-0-36g-airsoft-bb-3000-pcs-in-bottle And if so, how did you find them? I'm looking for a cheaper alternative to Geoff's/Longbow...
  6. December 30th, I ordered three maple leaf rubbers from Bullseye. Like clockwork, December 31st package arrives. Awesome turn around time, as ever. Sadly, the package only contained two of the three rubbers and they were shut for New Year, so I couldn't do anything about it. So yesterday, I rang them - they apologised and said they'd stink one in the post. It arrived today. Something went wrong. They fixed it immediately. Absolutely spot on service. And that, amongst other things, is why I use them 😄
  7. Things went so well today, that I swear if someone told me about it I'd call bullshit 😂
    But, the AUG was toss.
    The wrong site to use it at. Live and learn.

  8. But that's just it! I was running mix and match and it worked perfectly. I swapped to 100% maple leaf and it wasn't compatible! So I can use a Maple Leaf barrel with the fast hop, but I can't use my Maple Leaf barrel with maple leaf hop unit, because it's the wrong spec. It's fucking mental. The number of people who have told me that maple leaf rubbers don't work in the FAST hop is ridiculous. And the number of people who've told me the ML CJ barrel is rubbish too. And yet, for me, it works a treat! I have a mixed pedigree gun and long may it continue 😄
  9. My bucking has been a bit poorly, so decided to swap it out - while I was at it, decided to fit the new (second version) of the maple leaf hop unit. Which is shit. Wasn't compatible with my maple leaf barrel, as there were no grooves for clip. So ditched it and went back to FAST hop unit. Super bucking arrived and I fitted a slightly harder one than usual. I normally run a 50, but thought I' d try a 60. Power has dropped. Range has increased. Approximately 100m (laser range finder to bush at 110m, but BBs were dropping just short). 100% air seal. Because the power was so low (1.85J), I swapped to a more powerful spring (rapax 2+) and the power went up to 2.2J. Not sure on accuracy yet, but will be field testing on Sunday. I used to have the hop set to 4.5 / 5 and had an output of 2.29J. Now with the hop set to 2 and a more powerful spring, I'm getting 2.2J. It's like alchemy!
  10. £400? With a couple of extra mags and a £20 ebay scope? I don't think this will be going anywhere any time soon. At £300, might get some takers. And this: £130 tops. Possibly less because it's been upgraded and you've no idea what sort of job they've done. The DTD is a nice addition though. But they'd probably get more joy selling that separately. For both of these, the outlay is the same as or equal to the new price of the rif, only there's no warranty. But there are some bits you may or may not want.
  11. 20% off is compelling! I just ordered a new WAS holster. Because two pistols should be the law. Was gonna get a chest rig, as I thought I had a back panel already. But I don't lol.
  12. Holy shit!
    I got caught on vid playing airsoft!
    Shame the sound is wank, cos the MWS sounds amazeballs.
    Me and two team mates were aiming to cross the patch of grass at our front, to engage the enemy from behind... But then I saw that we were about to get attacked from behind!
    Unfortunately, turns out we were really, really close to their spawn, which is why they show up again so quickly after being shot!

  13. I’ve got the ML hop unit. I have a maple leaf barrel. It didn’t fit. And I was somewhat fucked off. There is a c clip, which fits into the grooves in the barrel and the hop chamber. without the grooves (which my barrel doesn’t have), it doesn’t fit. So nope, not marketing, sadly. The hop unit looks to be well made (in the second version), but I couldn’t tell you how well it works yet lol.
  14. No worries. They make smaller scopes too. Just I'm blind as a bat, so need all the help I can get!
  15. I run a Diamondback 3.5-10 x50 on mine. Bloody lovely scope, but might feel a little big for the covert?
  16. You can get around that issue now with the new Super/Wonder buckings which no longer have the locating nubs. As far as the PDI - I have no idea. One thing I have learned about the SRS as a platform is that they're not all the same. What might work amazingly well in mine might be total shite as a set up in another one. Sadly the only way to find out is to spend a shit tonne of money on different bits and bobs until you find what's perfect for your rifle. On the plus side, you end up with lots of spares! 😂
  17. I used the 510mm CJ ML VSR barrel and the autobot 50 bucking (VSR/GBB). I had to shave a nub off the bucking and it's a tight fit in the fast hop, but it works a treat. @Immortal No worries - next time you see one, just ask if you can hold it. I've never said no, cos I want people to see what they think. Some people have said it was wank (their exact words lol), others have been neutral, others have tootled off grinning from ear to ear knowing what they're spending their dosh on next. p.s. no idea if you're anywhere near me (N.Yorks), but if you are, you're more than welcome to try it out 😄
  18. The single most frequent comment I get about my SRS is how quiet it is. As far as getting one, the main thing I'll say is - have you got your mitts on one? Because it's a bullpup, it's not to everyone's taste. And the mag changes are a ballache. However, I adore mine. (but I'm a bp fan boy...) As far as upgrades, I had a pdi with rhop, but ditched it in favour of ML CJ and autobot bucking. I currently use the fast hop chamber, which has 100% air seal. I got hold of the ML hop chamber as soon as it was available in NL, but the production run was fucked, so never fitted it. I've just had the replacement unit arrive, but haven't got round to fitting it yet. I'm semi excited about it, as it's designed to work with the barrel/bucking combo I already use. Overall, I love the platform - it's a joy to shoot. And it's virtually indistinguishable from the real thing, which is always a bonus. It's a doddle to work on too, which is most welcome.
  19. Holy fucking shitballs!!! If anyone wants to look up the definition of taking the piss, then this is it! £150 for a fifty five quid gun and a barrel? They've not even done the hadron plate and I key??? Nope. Forty quid and he might get a taker...
  20. That's awesome news! Made up for you dude 😁
  21. Was bored so had a wander round the internet... Only Ryan Toms into airsoft I could find was in Brum. He's on FB and has a few old ads on usedairsoft (a year old, but usefully have his address). Might not be the same bod, but you never know... That's if the guy actually used his own name, obviously.
  22. Wowsers - what a cheeky twat. I'm betting that he won it at Proving Grounds yesterday in the raffle. The coincidence is just too great...
