Must be 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

I had a similar situation not that long ago I boiled the kettle and poured the hot water over the offendingly stuck part, only took a few seconds for the heat to radiate through the part that was stuck and with little effort it unscrewed. Obvs, if you attempt this, have the rif pointing downwards over the sink to stop water going up and into your barrel

No wonder new players get all confused I kinda know my way around Airsoft, and that sentence up there has me questioning my knowledge 😂

Partially stripped the Uzi down to solder on a Deans connection (all of my batteries are that fitting) Had to extend the wires a few cm’s as there isn’t enough meat for an easy job using the standard wiring. Job done, plugged in a fresh 7.4 and the appropriate clicks/bangy/pewey noises were made. Relief, it works! Then noticed the only battery that will fit in the battery trough is fractionally too tall, stopping the top cover clicking down properly. Looks like one of the squillion ranger bands I made will do the trick just fine Chrono and range test tomorrow 🤞

Airsoft has also taught me a new motto for dealing with SWMBO ”It’s easier to ask for forgiveness, than to ask for permission” 😉

I think that young blood brings in new ideas and innovations Just take a look at the expo that happened across in Taiwan a few weeks ago, most of the reps and innovators/ manufacturers who are introducing the new stuff are barely of shaving age. My parents could barely get their head around owning a Betamax let alone getting it to programme to record one of the 3 available channels. Now mum (chasing 80) is able to get her box to pause live tv while she saves another programme on the hard drive to watch later Innovation comes along and we get used to it, but I’ve only been playing maybe 7 years now and have seen things progress I understand the use of hpa, but ruins the immersion for me with the umbilical Bluetooth programming of mosfets seems useful Lipo’s or Life battery’s are certainly much better than NiCad’s Thermal imaging will be cheaper and common in a couple of years Still lots to look forward to I suppose, it’s great to see it continue to evolve Young players are the future of our hobby for innovation

I wasn’t actively on the look out for one, it just sorta …….. happened 😂

Latest arrival Not much info regarding these online, and YT videos are very old and scarce Im pleasantly surprised with the build quality of the TM plastics and more metal than I had expected. Still to be tested as my batteries are deans and I don’t want to change this at all. more a collectors piece than skirmishable, but it will get an outing one day The few YT videos out there show partial markings, this has full “UZI” on the receiver, probably something to do with different markets, but didn’t think that TM bothered with that stuff

Bad start to the new years spend already 🤷🏼‍♂️ But what can you do……. enough spares to build another one included.

Than pop a listing in the classifieds with your name and todays date written on a piece of paper included in the pictures of it Theres a good chap 😉

Maybe with various shades of “tan” she’s trying to replicate M81 🤷🏻‍♂️

Never bothered with Propane i bought a bottle and a nozzle, filled a mag and the smell almost made me Vom So screw that!! 😂

Well, Ran it today at an indoors site Snow on the ground outside and a temp of 2 C, wasn’t much warmer inside A comfy 1.2J using the Orange Ultrair and dialled in with the Npas

If it’s just the backboard that is for mounting the pegs to show your replicas, why not just use any rattlecan in a colour of your choice I doubt any paint will have an effect on your TM’s finishes Just let it dry thoroughly outside or in the shed / garage to let fumes evaporate and the smell to die down

What I did notice yesterday is a new member spam posting for meds on the general page, then his second post was in the classifieds I thought we had a 10 post count before getting access to classifieds area. not that it stops them spamming all the other areas

Well, short n sweet Hogmanay game at The Depot, indoor site My first visit there and my first indoor game. Got to say I will definitely be back, left the house at 6:30 for a 1:20 drive to Port Glasgow. Used the Sig 553 which performed flawlessly, indoor temp was probably around 5 deg C , there was a good 6 inches of snow on the ground outside, so the place was chilly and not much warmer inside. Had to adjust the Npas to get it below 350 and they only allow up to .25’s But no dramas, and had a cracking laugh. I ended my day early as I had gone over my ankle in Oct and it’s still giving me a bit of pain, so called it quits one game after lunch. My aeg only came out to get chrono’d for just in case! Absolutely massive place, pyro’s going off everywhere so my noise cancelling headset was being used to good effect And what with the Smokey afterboom really highlighted tracers and torches Fucking SUPERB 👍 Pics taken at the quiet end, didn’t want my phone shot out! 🥴

And one positive feedback 🤔

Yeah, I was actually toying with the idea of getting the adhesive versions for on my mags to see their actual temperature, then realised the gas tubes are inside the polymer mag shell and would therefore only give an outdoors reading still might be handy 🤷🏻‍♂️

Those pressures are reported to be when at 25 deg C Not much chance of that happening up here in January 😂

I had one the same from Expilon I don’t have an option to report it, but have left feedback on his page and the feedback pages

Hats off to Defcon Order arrived earlier which was a surprise. Didn’t expect it until next month. Means I’m good for my next woodland game 🤞

Im slowly working on my mrs to get one of these, she likes crafty things, I just need to fill her head with enough reasons for her to use one 😉 What make n model did you get?

The amount of times I’ve witnessed a spring jettisoned across a safe zone is many or a tiny item popping out and falling between the slat on a picnic table Fek that minimal tools to allow fitting optic batteries or swapping accessories is my limit (and a leatherman )
