You're always going to get that with new stuff. People want the newest thing and then see an even shinier new thing they want.

Unfortunate spelling mistake lol

Man, I hope this gets sorted. This is how forums die.

Do you want screen accurate gold ones?

Before you go spending money on 3D printed stuff, are you aware of this? https://www.octagonairsoft.com/product-page/fcw-colt-ro633-doe-aeg

92.7% of airsofters will never touch a firearm. Airsoft and RS are so different, it doesn't matter as long as safety rules are being followed.

Declared bankruptcy

£350-£450 depending on how quickly you want to sell it.

Ah. Hobbnob posted the wrong link. I didn't even check it as I knew the item they were taking about. This one. As you can see, same finish, functional, reticle etc I just found this on AliExpress: ￡97.39 | OKP-7 SVD 1x34 Rifle Red Dot Scope Green Illuminated Hunting Riflescope Arrow Reticle Picatinny Rail Mount 22LR.5.56 .308 etc https://a.aliexpress.com/_EwKzAEa

What would you describe the finish as? It seems veeeery similar with that mottled look. Can't see much of a difference really. I don't know your experience with commissioning items from Chinese factories but they 100% will sell your item under a different brand even if they say they won't.

Should be. There's reviews on Chinese sales sites showing reticle etc

As long as you remove enough length off the grip, you're good to go.

I'm thinking the drone solution in the immediate future will be more drones. Absolutely loads of them saturating an area, be it tethered or auto land, charge, take off at designated charge stations. That way they'll always be x amount I'm the air. When they're destroyed, a new "order" is generated to replace to that area. They'll be connected like a MESH radio network to transmit silly long distance. All have thermal capabilities to identify enemy drones including fibre optic drones and designate them to be destroyed by hunter killer type drones that are auto launched.

Yeah. Increased effective range is the aspect I can get behind.

I honestly think the armour penetration abilities are kind of moot and are only an on paper/"look how how clever we are" thing. Sure, it's impressive but how many battles will be won by being able to punch through the opponent' armour? I'd imagine not many. Unless something big happens in war fighting, frag, arty and shrapnel are going to continue to be taking the majority of people out of the fight.

I get the reasoning why it was tendered for the specific specs it has but I'm sure you could get most of the way there at a fraction of the cost by simply bumping up the numbers of DMRs with 7.62mm or 6.8mm or whatever for reaching out for the longer threats and leaving your regular infantry with 5.56 with a sensible amount of rounds available. The fact that in wargames, guys are running out of ammo mid firefights and are needing resupply is somewhat concerning. The future doesn't look great for it imo.

Looks like Well Pro are joining Toxicant and APFG and doing a GBBR XM5/M7. It will probably use VFCs 7.62 platform as a base considering Well Pro's existing relationship with VFC's parts so no doubt better than Toxicant's somewhat pants effort.

Could you comment on LCT doing an RPL-20?

I don't know about UK shops but TM have recently shipped a new batch within Japan. I imagine they'll be back in the UK soon-ish. You'll find a buyer easily if you're sensible with your price but don't expect anyone to pay over retail.

The site in question doesn't rhyme with mongmoor does it?

Flip it upside down and do a GM-94 next please 😛

Just based off common sense hoping to avoid such an incident. It's one thing being hit with a Tag round, a whole other thing if it detonates on impact. Tags should be safe to use as long as people obey the safety rules - shoot at 45 degrees, indirect fire etc so they lose a lot of energy on the drop but there are morons out there...

Stirling and Defiant don't. You might find someone that wants to use them for theatrical video content I suppose. "Watch me spend £x in 30 seconds" 😄

Might be a tough sell as most sites that allow Tag rounds have banned impacts.
