  1. Anyone ever had teething issues with new pistol outer barrels? Just got a steel one for my Glock because the stock one exploded, but I'm getting a lot of slide jams and it won't cycle fully.

  2. Well, I have it and it's lovely. But dear god the performance is appauling.

      Yeah should be, first step, get rid of that A&K gearbox :P. Oh, and don't get a G&P gearbox as a replacement, as good as they are, they don't fit in A&K receivers.

      Sure it's the same with the SR25 series rifles? I'd have thought they'd be built to more similar internal dimensions.

       

      It'll be Patrol Base that sort it out, so they'll have to figure out what the best gearbox shell is. I wonder if KWA make SR25 gearboxes...

      It might be different, but I bought a G&P gearbox to replace the A&K one in my M4 and it didn't fit properly. Was a really tight fit and moving the fire selector was impossible, and when I took it out, it ripped the tappet plate off.

  3. Pair of Somalis just said "Chop chop" to me whilst I was coming back from a skirmish with my kit on. Debating whether or not I ought to have curb stomped them both on the spot whilst saying "Bang bang" as I splattered their heads...

      You have no idea how many things like that are said to people here in N.I. You just don't walk about in public with any sort of DPM or multicam/MTP in certain areas.

      The whole main street of the town I work in was shut down the other day because some wanker thought it would be funny to plant a hoax bomb.

      Mate of mine in the London ACF was advised not to wear kit to/from their detachment, we've not had that out in hants tho

  5. L129 is still at the National Hub =[ If it arrives after I've left without it tomorrow, I'ma rage.

      National Hub = Coventry.. You wont be seeing it any time soon :P

    2. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Yeah, I thought it was in London, but it's still not here either way. =[

  6. L129 tracking says it's still in Solent Depot. Fucking Parcelfarce. Fire-Support only just emailed me with a dispatch notification for something I paid for yesterday morning and asked for next day delivery on... So I'll have that £2.50 postage addition refunded then...?

    1. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Which then promptly arrived! Good old Fire-Support.

       

      Parcelforce managed to deliver the mags on time, where's the damn gun?! D=

      But I like my cave =[

  9. Tidying my room up. Filled 6 charity bags with a mixture of crap I don't need anymore, and old clothes. So that's one hell of a lot of extra space for airsoft stuff! I ought to actually be able to adequately organise it all now.

      Hav0c

      I'm going to take a leaf out of your book. My room is a tip! Need to prioritize my things and airsoft things

  10. L129 is being posted out tomorrow, so I'm hoping to see it on Friday... I'm busting a gut to get hold of it! I SSSOOOOOOOOOO hope it's here in time for Skirmish on Saturday.

      Ed, was it the same one I sent you the link to?

      I would say let us know how it goes but knowing you Ed, we will have a nice wall of text anyway ;)

      Airsoft-Ed

      It was, Hav0c, yeah :D

  11. Black or dark earth Pmags for my L129? How many? And any MTP pouches to carry them in?

      Looking at some reference photos it seems the black ones are used most predominantly.

      As for the number, I think 6 ought to do it.

       

      I'm still screwed for pouches though. Might shoot a few people PMs on ZeroIn... *Shudders violently*

      Being forced to use the forums from hell a lot more than I'd like lately...

       

      We need to think of a way of persuading all the knowledgeable, pleasant people to come over to AF-UK...

      Offer them chocolate hob nobs?

      Bourbons are the best biscuit.

      I'm not having this debate again...

  12. L85 lives! You stick your head out at 55m... Sucks to be you! Headshots all day. I'm hitting 2x4 inch targets at 22m with practically every shot. Configured my ACOG to compensate for about 2foot of drop too, so ultra long range shots are going to be a breeze, with the red dot set up for 25m - 55m. Anything under that I can just snap shot reactively. Next weekend ought to be fun! :P

      Pretty sure the 249 one was out a while ago now. I believe they've done a v3 too.

       

      Where would you get the air from.in the UK out of interest?

    4. geoffreym

      geoffreym

      I think you could buy just a basic/specialized air compressor, or ask you local "Heretics" (paintballers)

  13. Freakin' piston woes...

  14. 26 kills, 13 in one life, 8 with one mag. Let me know what you think:

  15. Newest video is now live:

  16. New video is up, Fort Domination, with some pistol action and sneaky close attack. Next video will be in the trench field:

    1. Dan_W

      Dan_W

      This sort of vid was more intense than the others and you could actually see who you were shooting at.

  17. First video from Saturday is up. I also got a 13 kill streak (new record I think) so look out for that video too, it'll be up later in the week. Also let me know what you make of the new camera angle:

    1. NickM

      NickM

      Good vid, nice quality, didn't have any problem with your nose but the peaking to the left of the standing tubes you just get the plastic. I like the idea of the angle but what about the middle of the front of your helmet, ie between the eyes?

    2. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      The shape/size of the camera would mean I had to have it right on the top of my head which I think would be too far out of the way to see anything that well.

       

      Plus, it puts the camera at more risk of being shot, which I try to avoid.

       

      Looking around left hand corners is always going to be an issue, but it's better now than it was.

    3. NickM

      NickM

      Fair enough, didn't know what camera. Its a pretty unique angle, I do think its good for the majority of that vid.

  18. Beat my kill streak record yesterday, 13 hits before someone finally got me. Got 20+ kills in the game overall, was hit twice, accused of cheating once and even got a few of the kills with my pistol and BFG. The video will be up either late tonight or at some point tomorrow!

  19. L85's piston has died :( Replacement is £8 plus the piston 'slice' or final tooth, which is a tenner <_< Or should I just buy another loada gearbox upgrades...?

    1. Tariq

      Tariq

      Since your GB is apart, it won't hurt for a little TLC would it :) Replace anything that's worn, no need to go "f*ck it, i'll replace it for the sake of it with the most expensive parts evar"

    2. sp00n

      sp00n

      i agree with Tariq .... though maybe an upgraded piston wouldn't go amiss ;)

  20. 3 new videos are now up, this one is a tactics breakdown, if you're a rookie and thinking of going to CQB then give this a watch and keep the principles in mind:

      Great video and very helpful, thanks! :D

  21. New video is now up:

      And another:

  22. Will have a new video up before the day is through. I'll post it as a status update so keep an eye out. It's about 20 minutes long, with commentary and it's a highlights video showing something in the region of 20 kills, close, far, pistol, rifle, grenade. Also some cool tactics etc. Don't miss it.

      Look forward to it!

  23. Short clip from today. Ridiculous multi-kill with one BFG :P There'll be more up over the next few days:

      Is that the impact or delay bfg? And how much was it ed?

    3. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      It's in the description, it's the VTG, which has (supposedly) a 3.5 second fuse/timer/delay.

       

      It was £95 + blanks + smiley face trolly token.

    4. sp00n

      sp00n

      Thanks for the info mate, shame about your camera battery :( good video though, really enjoyed it :)
