  1. I’ll be honest, that makes perfect sense to me. If the site operator wants realism and immersion at his place, fair enough. Especially the no m4 mags in pistols, I’ve never tried to ram a 5.56 into a 9mm but I can see the attempt being futile. Also, I think two tone, as important as it is for the non committed player starting off is important, can understand the rule of not allowing them on the site. It just kinda brings in the right players who are into the immersion. I have found myself in a position of playing around different sites with no regular schedule, so keeping my ukara “live” to allow a couple of recent purchases has been impossible. Personally I don’t see the £20 being much of a rip off to allow me my habit. But I consider myself a reasonably long standing player, so proof of me attending sites to play isn’t difficult, who doesn’t like to pose for the photographer when you spot him!
  2. Yeah, Demo Ranch’s younger brother has an Airsoft channel, tbf , I’ve never really remembered who he is 😂 VIDEO-2023-11-19-21-38-40.mov
  3. Now that’s pretty!! There is a used one kicking about other groups for sale I saw it and pray for a lotto windfall Very sweet, I run a clone and folk keep asking what it is 😂
  4. Both Garand Thumb & Matt Carriker (Demolition Ranch) have videos on their channels of them playing Airsoft , Garand in particular, really rates it as fun but also good training (he enjoys the larp 👌)
  5. Replacement plate from Boomarms I only just noticed today that they are also stocking steel slides, which as nice as it would be, is way out of my league
  6. No? Me neither, I’d much rather take a shite in my hands, then clap
  7. Any chance of a video of one doing it’s thing please 🙏 Edit: Just realised the designer has one on the link you put up 👍
  8. Some Airsoft stores do offer bulk discount for green gas etc, patrolbase for example. Just makes it more cost effective with say £5 off and dilutes shipping costs
  9. You never know, Licking Cumstain might be hiding in the bushes taking close range headshots https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/news-help-and-advice/news-and-events/meet-novritsch-at-patrol-base-this-saturday
  10. That’s true, But the salty twat also got (reportedly) paid £125,000,000 for the hassles of promoting Qatar. I think I could live with myself and the worry that you didn’t want to go there if I was in his shoes 😆
  11. Same one as this? https://bombupairsoft.co.uk/products/specna-arms-sa-b02-one™-saec™-system-carbine-replica-black
  12. Keep your mags close to a part of your body to give them a little bit of a chance I ran my gbbr last weekend at A66 , well after lunch I did. Ran the aeg in the morning as it was a wee bit chilly until the sun got overhead
  13. Boomarms MOS plate and SRO clone freshly installed to the TM G17 Gen5
  14. My Boomarms order just arrived, first time buying from them and no hassles. It was a race between them and Ali Express to see who’s delivery arrived first and Ali Won!! Just fitted my Boomarms MOS plate for my TM G17 Gen5 and very nicely made it is too 👌 Ali Express was sending a clone Trij SRO to get fitted to the pistol too (it arrived yesterday)
  15. One of the sites up here (Area 66) does regular kids days Its parents & kids and allows the younger than average attendees to see what their dads get up to on the Sundays they vanish and come back fuckered and bruised. It does seem to be very popular, normally run on a sat with 40+ in attendance. I think it’s a great thing! My father tried hard to get me to enjoy his hobby of fly fishing, which I just didn’t have the patience or finesse for Then it was air guns & motorcycles…..
  16. I received an email earlier today that the sliding stocks should arrive end of next week. Looking forward to getting my build under way. @yojimbo Jaeger precision has a couple of videos on YT regarding this replica, and some of the HK & Taiwan channels have good stuff too, but sadly no subtitles This channel has a few, ( but not really watched them), but he checks his chrono to see how he has increased fps 👍
  17. I looked on Ali express it was roughly £30, coulda been £34, it’s a tactic I use with my mrs 😂 but yeah, add vat etc and it’s gonna creep up
  18. So, I’ve been playing a few years now Definitely, spent more time on the field Marshalling than I have played And you start to notice different playing styles, from players who attend from different countries. What I have noticed, is that players from the Far East (Hong Kong in particular) Like to maybe “ignore” the first couple of hits just to test if it was a ricochet 🙄 Then will eventually accept the next 6 if the shots bounce off their dome! Having had to chat to a few of them, I asked why they find it so difficult to accept the playing style here in the UK - you get hit, you stick your hand up. Simples I believe it stems from the way the gaming is run in HK which is predominantly small indoor sites, small because rents for commercial properties are MASSIVE , combined with the fact that games are very quick and short. For the site to make a viable business, they have to run lots of fast paced games with several groups all at the same time (woodland/outdoor sites can be hours away) You could be sat out a long time after you are eliminated before the next game starts as the indoor sites run several groups during your session, so when your game finishes, you need to wait until say the next 4 groups have been through. So if you are shot out in the first few seconds of the game, you have a long wait until your next game….. So why not just ignore that shot that hit you and play on. I’ve witnessed many a player who has started their Airsoft hobby in HK indoor sites play this way in woodland games, and they seem to find it an acceptable “tactic” and are quite obviously perturbed when you give them a tug for trying it on. One lad ignored 4 test shots I’d issued just to see if he would take them! This isnt a rant or a dig at our brethren from abroad, as an education with them and some training eventually gets them playing in a sportsmanlike manner I played last weekend, and had a delay between a couple of games, caused by marshals eventually giving up on the polite suggestions of how to play and accepting the rules, and asking 5 players to leave the site due to their rule bending and non hit taking.. Has anyone else experienced a similar play style or something different from players who started Airsoft abroad?
  19. The Wosport looks ok for the money, if it’s the £30 per unit one I saw on Ali Express? Certainly cheaper than the AttackSense system that I have used on my local site Its very expensive, but probably more for a commercial venture than an at home set up. but I’m watching this too as would like something for the back garden 👍 Heres the last one I saw on eBay, listed with a Buy It Now of £2k 😳
  20. That And the fact it wasn’t a TM? 🤷🏻‍♂️
