  1. I've got a couple of those, really decent little red dot's for the money
  2. I rather think I might be ! 🤣
  3. Completely accidental and my fault not his. I was just hoping to get the term 'Blind Peaking' into common ussage 🤣
  4. Ouch ! but we've all done it , and it's easily done Our local site always mentions blind firing in the safety brief but Shooting from the hip is ok as long as you have a clear sight of your target. The marshalls are pretty good at enforcing it too. Get shot in the face 'cos of your own idiocy and everyone will quite rightly take the piss 😂
  5. Oh totally. The guy that shot me is a mate anyway and as I said he was doing everythig right . Just my bad timing , serves me right for being a numpty and not peaking whilst on a knee !
  6. Soooo what do we call it when some idiot sticks his head round a corner just as you pull the trigger ? I did that at a pistols and shotties game a couple of years ago. Peaked round a building just as a guy from the other team pulled the trigger, tri shot to the face at about 3 feet 🤣 Totally not his fault, he was aiming down the barrel at someone in another building . Blind peaking ? 😂😂
  7. The problem with something like that is that there are so many variables. Springs vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, air seals vary even between identical guns etc. as a rule we generally know that in a well sealed gun an M95 or M100 will get you in the right ball park for the majority of AR types. I cant honestly see people bothering to update it.
  8. I can relate to that, in the morning it's all tac vest full metal gun and a load of gas mags plus secondary. After lunch its the plastic MP5 and a mag in each trouser pocket !
  9. You should be able to swap the free float barrel nut for a delta ring with no issues. As you have pointed out there is lots more to an L119 A1 than a stock (it's not an XM stock in fact) and hand guard . I would say if you are planning to go the L119 build direction then I would say plan to do a complete build , start with a base gun that has a delta ring, hand guard and triangle sight, then get a list together of the parts you'll need and the details that are very different to a generic M4. That way you wont be buying parts twice ! There are a few of us on here who do L119 builds who can help with the details and a shopping list. Good luck with the build.
  10. Ah fair enough, that'll be my eyesight then ! 🤣
  11. Can't see clearly in the picture, but is that a grub screw on the opposite side of the shaft ? If so , is it securing the right side safety ?
  12. Thanks, yep been building models for more years than i care to think about ! Mainly R/C laterly. Got quite a few R/C tanks and big rigs stashed away.
  13. Not so much made as modified, but ACOG wing mount for the docter sight on my L119 A1 Found a metal one but with cut out's , so filled them with plastic card then painted it. Happy eith the results.
  14. Hers's mine. E&L about 3rd hand when it came to me. Still solid as hell !
  15. 320 - 330 fps seems low for an M110 spring in my experience. I'd suspect a seal issue dropping the fps to that level the 400 ish is much more likely the 'normal' level. Start by checking the hop rubber and make sure it's sitting correctly. After that it does start to involve removing and opening the gearbox TBH. Plenty of videos out there on how to do it and how to check compression if you fancy having a go yourself.
  16. How my L119 A2 long dmr build sits at the moment. Performing well, slot booked for machining and trades . Then all the detail work to do. Grip, stock and foregrip are all genuine. Real steel mag catch ready to go on . Fire selector modded for semi only. ELCAN not totaly legit , but works very well and swaps onto the L85.

    b***** gas

    Awesome result 😀

    b***** gas

    When it stops , what does it do ? does it still 'fire' but no BB comes out ? does the trigger jam ? does it light strike as in you can feel the hammer 'click' but no gas vents from the mag ?
  19. I use them loads, for parts and RIFs. Never had an issue.
  20. If it looks like this then any RMR should fit Does the nuprol version switch betwee 1X and 4X ?
  21. Converted a Storm grip that was for a PTS (I think) to work with a GBBR . Grafted a section of WE M4 grip in . It's for a mate's L119 A1 build and GBBR Storm grips seem to be rather thin on the ground at the mo.
  22. Hi and welcome, from another Devon player !
