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.

Ah. Good point. I didn't read that properly. I wonder if that means there will be Redux BBs and also a competing identical product from whoever takes over UK operations at Warhead?

And if there was any doubt as to the return of the TM G17.5 MOS, TM have confirmed they will be exhibiting at the 63rd Shizuoka Hobby Show from next Wednesday - May 14th. 'TM will have a "Test Firing Corner." at their booth to allow trade visitors the opportunity to experience the performance of the Tokyo Marui G17 Gen 5 MOS Gas Blowback Pistol, enhanced with a mounted Micro Pro Sight'.

Ah. Thank you. I'm not really on FB. Well, not following airsoft stuff anyway. They could have just mentioned there was a falling out. Odd they're still dealing with Warhead for BBs etc. You'd think they'd want a clean break and let Warhead deal with a new UK team.

Which is your favourite?

Am I being dim or does the answer to 'Why are we rebranding?' Not actually answer the question?

I was wondering about this too. The by the book way seems very long winded. There's an interesting video on YouTube by a guy that had his car broken into (I think) and various items stolen. I think he was a photographer or bird watcher or something. He found his camera tripod for sale in a cash converters type place shortly after and documented the insane loops to go through to get it back. I suppose someone could say "this is mine, it was stolen. I'm taking it. He's my contact details should you wish to query it or I'm happy to wait and speak to the police now and you can talk to them about handling stolen goods". You can't steal what you already own I suppose. One for Blackbelt Barrister perhaps.

The best GBB MP5 ?

Another scammer to ban

As predicted, the rumour of no more TM Glocks was absolute wank.

Yeah. Distance isn't too bad. Just quite steep. Though I may remember it being worse than it actually is as it's been a while since I've been there.

Ha. OK. Cheers

I don't suppose you know if LCT box mags are interchangeable too? I've read conflicting info.

Pretty hefty hill to walk up from the car park to the safe zone iirc so don't over pack.

Hmmm. I didn't see that part of the post. I'm not saying you added that in the edit of course ha.
