  2. kasaran
    Anyone braved an order yet to see what the import fees are?
  3. kasaran

    Half looking at getting a MK18.  Not a great fan of the big CM logo on the G&G, does this come off? £500 TM NGRS is a little rich for me atm.

      Yeah, the Edge range has the orion gearbox. If you get an Edge, try and get the newer Edge 2.0.

      It has a Gate licenced flat trigger that is optimised for the Aster mosfet, and the new Flat hop up rubber.

       

      Apparently Specna have sorted the issue with the weak gearboxes, but I'll be able to tell you first hand if that is the case after my E05 Edge 2.0 arrives soon.

       

      The CORE C19 is still DD Licenced, but has the plastic body instead of metal. 

      The rail is still metal however.

    Thanks. Was bugging me that i couldnt find them again Found a fb post from them dated 20th of august advertising the preorders and saying when to expect delivery. The link to the storepage is dead. So yeah. Recently they must have recently taken the page off their shop.
  7. kasaran
    im certain i found them listed on a UK seller, saying the guns didnt meet their standard and were sending back the entire batch (after giving the preorders the option have have one or wait/refund) couldnt for life of me find out which shop last night when looking. i dunno if its because the shop page was removed. Just made me worry too much. but yeah, hopefully when all this delivery and shits passes to whatever the new norm is, providing its skirmishable (i dont want one to just be a wall hanger) then i will treat myself.

    Well, when you get, i trust there will be an indepth review and snag list from you. Really want one, and its annoying that its been badly reviewed, and appears in EU shops post brexit

      Don't bother with hardware. The future is in the cloud. You don't get AKM's in the cloud.

    To follow on from my old status about an overly expensive camo. I ended up settling on marpat.

    I find it amusing when in the classifieds people who are selling multiples of one item say '£X each or all 5 for £Z'  When the buy all price is exactly what the individual cost would be if multiplied by the number of items.  Why word it like its got a multibuy discount?

      Haha.

      Buy two for the price of two.

      Yay winner!!

      @alxndrhllthat is just to trick their wives/gfs into thinking they "want" to sell those items ;)

    considering how simple they are. Why are M79's so expensive?

      I'll agree that they are pretty overpriced (especially the handheld version), but there is a fair amount of metal used, and a nice wooden stock as well. The large metal barrel and barrel assembly are also likely fairly expensive to cast properly, but apart from that like someone said before, a lot of that cost is probably from Nuprol's bottom line ;)

      I'm not sure simplicity = cheap, or even complex = quality. ICS MGL a good point to raise. Whilst its' been literally years since the first and last time I held an m79 (can't remember if it was KA or the old CAW version), it was a solid bit of kit and a "quality product". On the other hand, the ICS MGL (which I have) is well, half the price.. and for good reason. The complex bit is pretty decent, and does what its supposed to do. But evidently corners were cut elsewhere, it is incredibly plasticy, there is lots of flex to it and it seems pretty fragile, I wouldn't want to drop it, and I wouldn't want to transport it outside of a box. Not a fan of nuprol but IIRC m79s have always been fairly expensive

    After almost a year I have finally sorted out the gear I want to run for my G3.  Now, what do do with the mag pouches I originally bought that were of no use to me.

    They are OD, fit 2 mags in each and fully adjustable with velcro flap.  Got em to fit Stanag, G3 and M14 mags, not AK sadly.  Possible ad going up when the missus gets round to looking at the postage costs.

  16. kasaran
    I looked at em. What sort of things were in the non special ones?
  17. kasaran
    oooh, any idea on cost yet?
  18. kasaran

    with the paypal, pay in 3 instalments.  can you put down a deposit/first payment to make the follow ups cheaper?

      You can't spec a PC for ArmA 3.

      Unless you work at NASA or something.

      @Skara oh, I still get arma'd but now, at least on not heavily modded maps i can have a decent view distance and frames.  I remember my machine before the last upgrade, the view distance was so low the UAV misson on campaign was to high to nothing rezed in on the ground.

      I play mostly KoTH and until a year and a half ago I had 40 fps literally everywhere on my craptop, 1.5k view distance on anything, now though, the game doesn't even start and sends me to a nice BSOD which also fucks up steam library -.-

  19. kasaran
    So a gun that fires 420fps stock (according to https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/asg-4-inch-co2-dan-wesson-revolver-pistol-silver ) has had its fps increased? is this still even classed as an airsoft gun? or is it now a funky sniper rifle? If the latter, surely you know the fps, kinda important to skirmish? though a lack of a hop up on this model would make it a pretty poor sniper
  20. kasaran
    So far I have been lucky, but then all my guns are stock? So i havent actively messed them up? Overall, I have bought seven guns from TaiwanGun and Gunfire and not had an issue with any of them. I had a long period of communication with Gunfire because I would have prefered a wooden stocked SVD, but because of the price difference and brexit I was of with settling on the plastic stocked one. They made my order and held onto it without me making payment for 3 weeks waiting to find out from CYMA if they were going to make any wooden ones. Sadly the answer was no. Apparently they standard time with will hold onto orders without payment is a week. Im not sure how many other stores would do that for people, but it makes me a bit more trusting over them being reliable in regards to returns if there is a fault. But I wont lie, I'd likely try and fix things locally if there was an issue, unless it was a major fault.

    I know there is cheaper options in the UK but... but all cost more than gunfire. which is out of stock at the moment, myself getting one last month from them. https://gunfire.com/en/products/cm057a-sniper-rifle-replica-1152203495.html £156.24 or in stock here https://www.zerooneairsoft.com/products/CYMA_AEG_SVD for the low low price of £269.95 Thats a Mack's worthy level of price hike.
  22. kasaran
    TBH, i have found price differences on the polish sites of AEG's to be regulary at least £20 to £30 cheaper than a UK seller. In some cases £100 cheaper. Also, you know brexit was a good idea when business people who were pro-leave do this... https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/brexiteer-billionaire-jim-ratcliffe-moves-his-land-rover-production-to-eu-nj3fkckkk Clearly they were only in on it to make more money, or dont actually care about 'made in britain'

    It seems, CROPAT is really hard to find for sale outside the US and for what I would consider a decent price for grear...

      Battleship used a blue variant I think but Hyperstealth did develop some digital patterns based on the OG Tigerstripe colourways http://www.hyperstealth.com/tigerpat/

      You could always try buying some cheap surplus USAF digi-tiger and dyeing it?

      thats an idea, but likely beyond my abilities.  and i think thats what im remembering.  at least im not totally mad

    Yeah, on closer inspetion, I have removed the lens and its in 2 pieces

    On an order from TaiwanGun, I tagged on a set of fan goggles as an experiment. At £17, if they worked, they would be a steal, if not, then no big loss. https://www.taiwangun.com/tactical-glasses-goggles/protective-goggle-mod-2-with-built-in-anti-fog-fan-black-fma I could not find any impact rating on the website, claiming to survive 550fps from a koer SVD. They arrived fine, though the fan didnt work. After some prying I found that the proportions of the battery case were off to the point that it wasnt making contact with the positive end of a AAA battery.... great QC (a sign of things to come). They arrived in a lovely case and conviniently they had the tinted lens fitted. I dont know why people wear them... why make the shadows in the woods darker? Either way it means it doesnt matter if they get skuffed during testing as I would be putting the provided clear lens in. I fired 3 rounds of 0.36g bb's at 490fps from my cyma springer from about an inch away. It left 3 little dimples where the left eye would be. All seeming fine so far. For the second test I brought out my gas TM M870 and fired 2 sets of 3 bb's all weighing 0.28g over the right eye, where it was as yet undamaged. The first salvo bounced off fine. The second.... two bb's went right through the lens cracking it majorly. Not so good. Also, the website claims the lens has a thickness of 2.4mm.... i measure it at 1.5mm with a ruler. I will need to borrow some calipers to be more accurate. I know my test would be somewhat extreme... and unlikely to happen in game... but I dont think I will use them now. Was my testing a little too much for it? I mean, it shugged off the sniper with no problem, hell, the scuffs were not even bad. The BB's and gas used that broke them are included in the photo.
