  1. Awesome day at The Stan today, about to have a few beers and a BBQ to wind down, then I'll be reviewing my footage. I just hope that the camera was pointing at the right angle...

  2. Take a look at this page folks, I think what they've got going on is quite a good idea. The bigger their customer base, the cheaper their products! Don't forget to tell them I sent you if you make a purchase! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Mi-Airsoft-Store/125276174279489

      How do you make a purchase?

      ^ I believe it is a request system. you tell them what you want and they find it for you and give you a price. There is also his link on their facebook page http://uk.ebid.net/perl/main.cgi?mo=user-store&title=jamie056-sights-and-scopes

  3. Glock tac light arrived, 3 days ahead of when it was meant to, which is excellent news. For 200 lumens it doesn't half scorch your retinas...

    1. Kaza66

      Where did you get it from?

    2. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Ebay it was only about £8. Though it came to about £20 with shipping from Singapore.

       

      Actually having a bit of an issue with it, it's supposed to be quick detach, but because WE make everything slightly bigger than the real steel, I've had to grind a bit of the rail away for it to actually fit. So it looks a bit mucky now =[

    3. Kaza66

      Kaza66

      Nice think I might pick one up myself. You used your drilly thing again? Haha :P

  4. Managed to get my WE Glock to fit into a drop leg Level 3 CQC Blackhawk Serpa holster. Still sticks a bit, but it works. Took about an hour of using a drilly thing, and I must've practically filled an entire freakin' hoover bag with plastic dust, as well as taking about 3mm off the inside edge of the entire thing... but I'll take it. Certainly more hassle than it's worth though. If anyone's looking to get a WE pistol, a Glock especially, don't bother with Serpas.

      A drilly thing :D You mean a dremel? Good work ;)

    2. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      It may well have been a dremel.

  5. Tried putting my holster is boiling water to alter the mould a bit. Didn't really work... Just almost popped my shoulder trying to get the pistol back out of it lol. Definitely need to get the power tools out.

  6. The £125 holster I had to buy in a colour I didn't want, doesn't even fit my pistol... God damn you WE with your bloody non-standard dimensions. Rage...

      sods law mate, if it can go wrong it will, if it carnt ... it will ;-)

    2. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Yeah, time to get the metal files out

  7. I'm officially now the coolest person ever because I finally figured out how to get a BF3 graphic in my signature xD :P

  8. How quickly do you reckon you could add and remove a tac light from a pistol? Are there any designed with QD mounts? 'Cos I can't holster it with a light on, but I want one =[ Thinking I might be able to add/remove it as and when required.

      I've only ever used it in the basement of The Embassy. It's good enough to navigate and light up the close proximity. Don't expect to be using it to dazzle your opponents as you storm the room :)

    3. Airsoft-Ed

      Can't fault it for the price either way, ordered one :)

    4. Tariq

      Tariq

      At that price i might get one myself :P Screw getting my £90 torch shot out that wont fit great on a pistol :P

  9. Kinda lack luster day today, weather was great but guns were all shooting a bit crap and I didn't get any decent footage. I do now have a Glock though.

  10. L86 is double feeding like a mother fucker. Especially using Emags... Annoyed. Time to get the sand paper and files out and go to town on the tappet plate.

  11. The only reason I would recommend anyone buy a sniper, would be if they already have one, and want something to shoot it with...

      The type 96 platform isn't too bad once upgraded but I have to agree with finius that the vsr is the most 'complete' system. Just whish other companies would make vsr compatible guns, fully compatible rather than just the spring guide and barrel and other ridiculous thongs

      I Heard their may be Mention of sexual thing's and i was Correct =D also *Things

  12. Does anyone know where I can get a (preferably fake, clone copy) Radar holster for a Glock 17, like this: http://soldiersystems.net/blog1/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/UK-MoD-Glock-Holster.jpg

      There most definitely was not one at Ops-7, I'm guessing that the genuine ones are going to be upwards of £100... They seem a little under the radar for their to be an airsoft copy, but I can't find one full stop, real or fake. D=

    3. M_P

      M_P

      I'd never seen them till soldier systems showed them off its a niche market but give it time, everything gets cloned eventually :D

    4. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Might just get a Serpa instead... Though the drop leg platforms make them around the £100 mark as well...

  13. Can someone explain sniper springs to me? I want a VSR one that's good for 500ish fps, but they're all labelled stuff like, "PDI VSR10 260 SlimSpring 11mm diameter" what the hell does the 260 mean?

      I'm sure they had a table or spreadsheet on their site showing the strengths of them?

      It is yes, ASPUK just beat you to it via Facebook though.

       

      I can't believe they don't even go up to 500...

  14. Well, all the faffing with my sniper seems to be slowly becoming worth it. It seems accurate enough to hit a man at up to about 60m. But I'm too ill to go and test it against actual people tomorrow =[ On the upside, through the week my new spring and barrel ought to arrive, making it better. Albeit with another 5000 hours of faffing about <_<

    1. Tariq

      Tariq

      Sounds good. TBH it took my friend 6 months to get his VSR to how he wanted it. Sniper rifles need lots of patience, gun wise and playing style :)

      And waiting a billion years for the parts you want to arrive from China...

  15. Snipers, man. Holy frickin' Jesus. Every tiny aspect of them is so ANNOYING! I might buy some bricks, to build walls, so when I want to smash my head through something, it's already there, pre-prepared.

      Ed won't like the idea of drilling a hole for a screw through the outer barrel...

    3. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      That's how the hop up works anyway - via a grub screw that goes through the outer barrel.

      I've had mine a week.. lost the will to live and no longer have interest in it.

  16. The condition I am in right now is a redefinition of what it means to be "ill" D=

      can never fault g&g, in my opinion they make the best, well minus vfc, but its a bitch getting them in the UK

  18. Had a quote of £440 for a fully upgraded WE AK PMC from Milspec Solutions. So far very impressed with their communication, hoping to go ahead with it at some point soon.

  19. Bioshock: Infinite? Oh my goodness. Dat ending.

  20. Actually amazed at the number of people my age who are sad Thatcher is dead. Do you all have Tory parents or something? I researched the parties to form my own political agenda and can't see how anyone could be pro right wing =/

      Its a touchy subject at best. We all know Ed's a decent fella and he wouldn't speak ill of the dead without reason. Being Scots-Irish I know where Ed is coming from, some could say I've been indoctrinated into hating her and what she done as are most of us as we're brought up. Whilst she may have did good for some people, the bad she done against others will probably never be forgiven. There's always going to be different opinions on both her and policies, and both sides...

    3. AirsoftTed

      AirsoftTed

      could argue their opinions till blue in the face. I think its for the best we remember we're all friends here and to just sweep it under the mat and forget about it as best we can.

    4. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Agreed Teddy, I'll honour that.

      Yeah, North Korea's leader thinks he's god on earth, he's power mental. Nothing going to become of it.

  22. Will be at The Stan tomorrow, filmerin'!

  23. Been researching the WE AK series, hoping to get the PMC for a CQB loadout. Buuutttt it turns out they're terriblely inefficient regardless of mods even if you live on the surface of the sun. So our climate basically makes it a no no =[

      No CO2 mags for the PMC =[

       

      Thinking of going with an M4 CQB now, or an MP7, or even a gas L85... Decisions decisions...

      KWA Mp7's are starting to come back in stock on some websites,

      geoffreym

      sorry, guess I was thinking of the GHK

  24. No one buy any of the new Ares sniper rifles. They are the most badly designed weapons ever, period. The BBs can fall from the feeding mech back into the cylinder area, the mags don't feed, the feeding mechanism doesn't work, they can't be upgraded beyond the barrel, hop arm, piston, spring guide and spring, and if JD will take it, I will be sending it back, or swapping it for a lump of shit. As that would be less disappointing...

      Speaking of PDI,I love their advertising on Xfire: ''Be the black bolt cylinder, GET MORE REALISTIC RIFLE''

    4. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Yeah, their "English" is simply superb.

  25. Currently myself and the other mods are shifting sales threads around, if you're selling a gas or spring gun, you'll now find them in the appropriate sections.
