      I was at Eversley, pretty good day, but the weather killed me and am feeling my age, Tippmann got it's first outing.

      @Duff - that's a shame. How come you won't fly solo?
      There's always loads of people to team up with.....
      I'm a solo player, cos otherwise I'd never ever play!

      Because I'd rather go with a group or at least some people I know.

  3.  I need a better storage system.
    As opposed to thrown all over the bedroom floor, in the wardrobe, in the bookcase, on the bookcase, next to the bookcase, in the bureau, on the bureau, behind the bed, under the bed.
    Christ on a bike there's a lot of stuff.

      i like having guns strewn about the place, great way to discourage visitors

      The dogs see they never make it past the front door 😄 

  4. Out shot a sniper yesterday. With my MK23 - woooohooooo!
    I just wish skirmshop would get hold of some mk23 barrels! 
    I ended up running it as primary for a couple of games, cos my lipo ran out and I lost my spare.
    sooooooooo much fun!
    Hopefully I'll be CQBing on Wednesday - same gun + tracer 😄 

  5. Good News: RIF arrived!
    Bad News: It doesn't work 😞

    Gutted.
    At least the scope arrived and is good.

      A&K S24 - I wanted to have a bash at sniping, but didn't fancy spending a million on it....

      Well at least you didn't waste even more money on a Novritsch branded one. 

       

      Interesting side note; Novritsch trieds to autocorrect to Novelty.

      Lol - It was an article on the S24 vs SSSG24 that made me think....
      There's about £500 in it difference!

  6. Delivery day!
    At some point. Fingers crossed.....

  7. Northern Shooting Show today - Just sold a load of stuff so I have pennies to spend! Hope there are some good deals to be had 😄

    So now the kids have a game to play with my back and arms - Bug or BB ?

      See me after class! And I will diddle you!

  11. Killhouse in Leeds was a blast last night. Everyone in there was a good sport to a man. Made the whole thing thoroughly enjoyable, even when getting shot 😄

      Ive heard such good things about this place. Infact, when I was at Gaol there was a group of them there and they arranged a discount with members of the Gaol when they go to KH

  12. Well that's a bugger.
    Supposed to be going to Camp Sparta.
    But noooooooo. Boy child has other idea.
    Gutted.

  13. Where can I get a female mini tamiya to female deans lead?
    That's not going to take 10 years or cost eleventy billion pounds to get to me?

      LMAO - I didn't mean the plastic connectors - I meant the actual metal contacts - the male has the metal with the holes for the female's metal contacts to go inside.
      It's so confusing. Male on the outside, female on the inside......

      I see what your saying! Just wanted to get that joke in that’s all:lol:

      If you can solder - just convert to deans and be done with it

      On rare occasions you might need dean/tamiya converter

      Just knock one or two up yourself from old lopped off ends

       

      Though converters are fine to use different bits together

      You will still suffer the resistance as you still using tamiya

      throughout the wiring loom, these joints is where resistance

      and/or warmth/heat may occur (like all joints in loom)

       

      If you can't solder, ask a m8 who can

      just cut-solder one lead at a time on batteries - especially lipo's

      they pack one heck of a wallop if you short or cut both wires at same time

      (clean underwear will likely be required after experiencing a lipo short)

       

      Replacing small tamiya with deans outright is best

      Even Mr T agrees.....

  14. That moment when you're all excited to go pewpew for the first time in a month.
    And then you find out you haven't got the right connectors to charge the new lipos for your new pew.
    Or any gas for your old pews now the temperature has risen.
    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!

  16. Dear UK Mail,
    Where the fuck is my stuff??
    Vanished on Friday. Not delivered Saturday. Allegedly delivered today.
    Grrrrrrrr. 
    It's mods for my mk23, which I'd quite like to add in while I can still use both hands. So I need em before tomorrow!

      Good luck with that then. They mostly do bulk spam mailing. Fingers crossed though bud!

      :-( 
      I'm guessing that they received a second parcel for me at depot on Friday and then thought - fuck him, we'll deliver em both on Monday.
      It's very annoying.
      However, I'm excited cos if they do show up it means I'll have my mk23 ready for post op sniping fun!

      It's all HERE!!!!!!!! 
      Woooooooooooohooooooooooooooo!

      Now to cock up putting it all together!

  17. No skirmishing for me for a long while, it seems. Absolutely gutted. Torn bicep on left arm. Grrrrrrrrrrr.
    I suppose I could always just experiment with MK23 as a one handed primary....

      Not worth the risk of further injury mate, get yourself healed up and 100%. The last thing you want to do is turn it into a permanent disability that stops you playing indefinately.

      And hey, at least it's not your cranking arm! ;):lol:

    2. ImTriggerHappy

      Torn bicep is an asprin injury, man up and get on with it.

      I feel your pain I have a prolapse disc and cant walk at the start on the season as well , this is going to be my first proper year, as well as last year i was a rental ming. Spent all year buying all the gear just to have it sitting there :(

  18. Aaaaargh!
    I'm feeling very sorry for myself. I've been shot to sh*t tonight, mostly by someone who thought it's okay to shoot after being hit. Repeatedly.
    And my suppressor is knackered.
    And my new case is broken.
    Beer then bed :angry:
