New vid of it.

Yes mate, the thing is now to let the planned obsolescence pan out a bit as in - wait for them to do the MK1...let them learn from that and iron out the issues, then let them do the new and improved Mk2 which I will then buy, so a long road yet. 😆

Hello chaps - for anyone interested, they did an announcement and vid of it firing on their FB page.

Andy used to let us run monster vehicle based private games at sandpit for cheap. Great site. He was a big figure in the airsoft scene for many years. RIP.

Reading all this stuff about whatsapp/discord makes me feel quite nauseous and even more glad this forum exists. ?

OP, hi mate, I think a few lads may echo this who have been around the airsoft block a bit - this forum is about as good as it gets. People have been 'feeling' that forums have been dying since the days they were first created in the early ages of the internet...but alas...they persist. ? This is a decent platform, especially if you have a tech issue. There is a helpful knowledge base here and a buoyant well regulated classifieds section. The team behind the forum do a good job to manage it. You won't get 'downvoted' for asking a simple question (no matter how many times it has been asked) and refreshingly - you also won't get banned for having a different opinion. Cheers

Will be cool if the maxim comes with a little trolley. I did wonder about it's relevance today, but Incredibly - its still actually being used in the war in Ukraine...by both sides.

Interesting discussion for sure. We have done that in milsims and even utilised MILDEC nicely at times by sending out false sighting reports and patrol locations. All is fair in love and war...

Classic F91w casio for me. Had the same one for about 8 years now!

Now we're talking mate that would be great!! Chuck a Tokarev in too while we're here...?

Bespoke have them at a marginally better £199...still a bit high for me.

Hello mate, I had a great experience with them early this year. I ordered a warhead black motor from E6 for a custom build- nearly 6 months later the tech I sent it too said it was the wrong one and I needed a short shaft instead. I thought I would be pushing my luck even thinking about asking for an exchange, but thought I would try so I emailed the bloke at E6 - he emailed back in an hour, no problem - send old one back and I will send the short one. Can't ask for any better than that. Cheers

Story of my life mate! ? Yes, you have a fair observation. That said, it could also be argued that TM are the innovators and continue to do so and do very well internationally regardless because of that. I also think that, just say hypothetically the choice arose, some people may rather be stuck with one really good pioneering brand (like TM) than a thousand others that tend to imitate TM anyway. Cheers.

Hi Cannon, Yes as far as I know. I had a great TM AK old school recoil. It was just brilliant and lobbed 50+ stock with excellent accuracy. I love that solid attitude too from TM. They know what they are doing and they know that it is good. It sort of aligns with many a great philosophers outlook - a bit like Steinbeck who emphasised the importance of forgetting the generalised audience and catering to a single person instead. Write for ourselves and the rest will follow (paraphrasing!). Sadly not good for poor wallet though! ?

Ah interesting thanks. It is a shame, but nothing we can do about it I suppose. I still think nearly £400 for a last gen AKS74U is ridiculous. Don't get me wrong, I am a big TM fan. TM can afford to do that though, people will still buy it, but it may just siphon people into other brands a bit more.
