      One thing I noticed and I hope you don't mind me pointing it out. You used a lot of acronyms, RIF, BDU etc but you didn't explain what they were. If the series is for beginners then they would not know about Realistic Imitation Firearm and Battle Dress Uniform. Coming from a military and MoD background, I understand the confusion of having acronyms thrown your way during a conversation.

  5. I'm really missing Airsoft now ☹️

      I set up a shooting range in the Garden which entertained me for about 30 minutes. I even did John Wick / Taran Tactical moves and tried to snap shoot different targets...... I still only lasted half an hour.

      The standard pitch for M3 is coarse which is 1.5mm. If you measure from dip to dip in the thread i.e. measure the very bottom of the thread (the groove) to the very bottom of the next thread along the shaft. From bottom of groove to bottom of groove it should be 1.5mm. Chances are that is a standard thread as the fine thread (which is 1.25mm pitch) are used less all round.

  8. Nobody warned me how bad propane smelled 😐

    1. RobHedley

      RobHedley

      Petrol is the greatest smell in the world..... especially when it has fuel additive in it!! Then again I have been sniffing that stuff most of my adult life so it may have had an effect!

  9. Recommendations for 'no-fogging' goggles for a very sweaty and overweight rehab project?

    1. RobHedley

      RobHedley

      As @Steveocee states, getting airflow through is the key. Not wearing head gear is not an option for me as I have a shaved head so I have a pair of ESS Turbo Fan Goggles and they are amazing. Yes they are expensive but after that first game where you can see clearly for the entire time, you realise they are worth every penny!

  13. Last exam tomorrow and then it's time to make some guns on the 3d printer :DDD

    1. RobHedley

      RobHedley

      Good bit of Software. I used Inventor but I haven't done anything with my 3D printer for a while. I must dust it off and start tinkering again.

       

      What course are you doing with Fluids and Thermodynamics? Automotive related?

      Good Luck in the Exam.

       

      One word of advice, if you need to slightly reduce the size of a component to fit on your print bed then................ go into the 3D Design program and shrink them all at the same size!!! If you do it individually in the 3D Print software you end up with a load of parts that aren't exactly the same size and will never, ever, ever, ever fit together.................... Ask me how I know!!! Took bloody days to print out all the parts as well!!

      Nice list there @gamble

       

      How do you find the Winchester and the Lee Enfield? I have been looking at getting something like that, possibly the Lee Enfield.

       

      I have a Mac 10 that I was given as part of a job lot when I bought a G36. I must gas up the mags and give it a try.

  16. The Site reviews will now be winding down, my BattleBuddy has quit Airsoft for good so my regular ride is no longer.  

     

    I will be popping in to a few new sites that have come up within Public transportable distance recently, but wont be able to do much beyond that unless the largess of others comes through! (I am doing my driving lessons, but still a bit off yet til my test!)

     

    Also starting a family this year so I will need to take at least year out when the nippers come along of course! 

    1. RobHedley

      RobHedley

      Sorry to hear that @Asomodai...... the reviews winding up that is not the Child 🙁Congratulations on that one.

       

      I always enjoyed reading your reviews as they were balanced and honest without being nasty. Top work so far and I look forwards to reading more when a) Your nipper is a year old and b) you have passed your driving test. 👍

      I was there for a bit with my 2 little girls (They were more interested in the free cookies and sweets!). It is an amazing showroom and only 10 minutes from me. Prices seem on par with most retailers so will be using them when I want to grab something without the annoying waiting for the post delay!

  19. The last time I played at the Bunker I was about a foot shorter and I distinctively remember how many times I would hit my head in doorways. 

    Tomorrow should be fun....... 

    1. RobHedley

      RobHedley

      I managed to crack my head on one of the supports about half way down a tunnel that was about an inch lower than the others. I was at full sprint at the time! I had no idea what happened until I hit the floor. I ditched the Cap and only wear a helmet down there now. Got plenty of battle scars on the helmet now but at least it is not my head.
