No idea how many of us have one on this forum, but thought I'd find out! I've got a gen 3 Sport, with DTSS suppressor. Started off with variable mass piston, air brake and m150 spring - came out at 2.29J. However, at my last game, was struggling to hit targets at 60m (thankyou google maps!). So today, I swapped the barrel for a 6.04 CJ (same length as original), the FAST hop unit and a prowler nub. Joules have dropped to 2.01 and the bugger hooks to the left, so I think I need to take it to bits again. With the hop set to zero, it's lifting .45's easily, so I think I need to get some heavier BB's and see how I get on with them. Just had notification that the WASP piston kit is on its way to me, so am looking forward to adding that too. Scope is a Vortex Diamondback 3.5-10 x 50, on a replica desertech mount. Lovely scope that works really well in low light woodland... I'm open to advice on my set up - I don't want much - I just want to splat the enemy at 80m...

Saturday night I started obsessing about the HK45 again (thanks to Murtaugh's USP). Went to skirmish on Sunday, where they had a retailer stall. Lo and behold they had an HK45 ready to go. I asked how much and if they took card payments. Decent price and yes they did. I wandered off and went pewpew. At the end of the day, I'd packed all my kit up and was just about to get in the car. Got out again and brought this home with me: Some things are meant to be 😂😂

Have you got one in any of yours? What's it like?

Of course not!!! People - watch the sales section in late February / early March..... LIKE HAWKS! 😆

Just a thought - I think UKARA becomes relevant for internet sales more than shop sales. It's an easy way for you to show the shop that there is a defence for them to sell to you, without them having to know you or anything about you. In my two local shops, they know me and they don't ask for a defence.

Well, tbf, they could have a BB gun that fires 4.5mm steel BBs if they can prove they're over 18. They just can't have a BB gun that fires 6mm plastic BBs, that's a realistic imitation of a firearm - unless they have a defence as described in the addendum to the VCRA (or whichever bit of legal stuff is relevant). I don't think logic comes into it anywhere, unfortunately...

Now you've had the strike eagle for a while, what are your thoughts? Positives / negatives?

Rifleworks.co.uk doing site wide 10% discount - code is BLACKFRIDAY Shame they haven't got what I want...

Soon to be seen in a classifieds section near you.....

Bucking question - Getting hold of a modify tan is proving near impossible. So what's the next best, aside from the original TM bucking?

Well at least he's going the right way.......

£250? When you can buy the whole lot new, with a warranty for under £220? I'm not sure if I'm missing something, or if it's just a typo in the ad..... Edit: I could have sworn when I wrote this it was £250. Now it's £225. Still way too much for 2nd hand kit, when you can pay less and have it new.

Can anybody recommend a replacement inner barrel for the APS SVU? I think the inner is currently 600mm and I'd like to keep at the same length. I have no idea if it's bridged or not. And I don't know which bore to go for... TIA. 😄 Edit: Ignore this. My Google-fu improved. Guarder 6.02 650mm is on the way!

JTFC!! Lovely rif 😄

No, it did not go well. Two weeks on and I have nothing for my money but a headache. Fucking twat. Responded to messages, saying was in post, will send tracking etc. Never did. Now not responding to messages. Have had to start a dispute with PayPal. Goods and Services FTW! Prick sold it on ebay the day after I paid him ffs - although I bet he never delivered to them either. I'm off second hand stuff unless I know the seller from now on. Fuck it.
