Firstly thank you very much for your analysis, I do appreciate it, - as you note, its a total headfuck. With reference to sporting activities and so forth - if i say so myself, the benefits of exercise and team sports for physical and mental health (both very important considerations) are well understood and supported in scientific literature, likewise unless more absolute measures are put in place, a line has to be drawn somewhere, which of course opens it up to inconsistencies. If one was to take a purely epidemiological approach then the idea of disabled people being exempt from the restrictions of indoor sport may not make sense - however a more holistic approach would recognise the (imo) obvious benefits of such an exemption. Re Tier 0 and such - I would except that in the event of the possibility of such a tier, the existing tier system would be inappropriate in its entirety. Thanks again

I thought I would share the updated guidance from UKAPU which looks at changes to legislation from the 24th September, and the impact on airsoft, both outdoor and indoor: https://www.ukapu.org.uk/coronavirus-portal/regulations-in-england/ Mingling is another subject but I found this article about it: https://fullfact.org/health/coronavirus-social-distancing-mingling/

I'm probably going to regret posting this but I'm not that concerned, well, I'm not concerned to the point where I'm happy to wait until 4 for the details. I think there has been a lot of confusion about what a "social gathering" is. The short version is that it's not like a.. congregation of people in a given area. Here's the definition of the law: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2020/684/regulation/5 As far as I can tell previously the guidelines were no "social gatherings" of more then 6 people (and bubbles, households..etc) - but the police only had powers to enforce dispersal of social gatherings of more then 30 people. The law is being changed to put police powers in line with the guidelines, so I guess the 6 person (bubble, household..i don't know!) is no longer a "guideline" but something that can be enforced by the police. What this means in practice: If you meet up with friends in the park, or garden, you weren't really supposed to do so in a group of more then 6. but the police were powerless to do anything about it unless there was more then 30 of you. Now they have the power to do so. Likewise, you can go the pub, or for the sake of it, a skirmish site. But that isn't a "social gathering". Its lots of social gatherings, in the same place. This article has someone from BEIS explaining it: https://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk/Article/2020/06/26/Do-pubs-have-to-limit-numbers-to-30-people I assume the same is for airsoft. People may ask "why can't I meet up with more then 5 other people in the park, but I can go to the pub/airsoft/gym/etc?" The answer from the government (not necessarily scientific) is that because the latter are, or at least, should be "covid secure", in a way that say your garden bbq isn't (again, just technically speaking, I'm sure people have had bbqs that would be considered to be "covid secure" if whichever h&s bod came round to check) As ever just my assumptions/thoughts. I'll wait until 4. I'm very aware by typing this out i've jinxed it and airsoft is banned for ever but we will see. edit: a take from Andy at UCAP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/UCAPAirsoft/permalink/10160454182945031/

Thats a mega bit of kit - congrats!

Skara is right the pattern is SS-Leto. The partisan suit(s) comes in many different camo's - including SS oak which is more autumnal. And there is another similar pattern which is a bit like mint choc chip. Dunno what's called though. They are all inspired by the camouflage used by the SS in the second world war. The SSO/SPOSN partisan suit is completely reversible so you can wear it inside out - the reverse pattern is a bit more subdued and slightly more autumnal. The SSO SPOSN suit is a fairly premium bit of kit and will probably cost around £100 after shipping and such. However you can find similar suits in SS-leto (and others!) for less then £30, which are basically the same except they have a zipper running down the top whereas the SSO is a bit like a tunic. They have a reversed camo on the inside but as I don't have one myself (and i can't be bothered to look either!) i'm not sure if the pockets are too. That being said at 1/3rd the price I know what I would get. Thanks

Yo I live near stratford - not in a team or anything though - just various combos of friends and mutuals. Gotta say ive not got any skirmishes near london planned just yet but drop me a PM if you want. George

I had one site quote my aa12 was at like 450fps or something. But every other place gave a reading as roughly what you might expect. No idea on what chronographs were used so not much help but there you go.

my girlfriend, up the wall! 😭

Would be grateful if you could let me know how you find the reticle - mine is pretty starbursty. I may be a bit astigmatic but ive used a fair few red dot sights in my time which have been / are crystal clear. Thanks

I will caution and say that I have not heard good things about their replica of that russian red dot sight the name of which escapes me now. Edit: That's not quite true. I don't think I've read anything specific to the vector one. but I can't help but feel the vector one is just an "ACM" with their logo on it. I think its worth noting that I'm pretty sure they stick their branding on a fair few things - they certainly weren't the first to bring out that 1x28 russian rds anyway. That being said I have a Vector Optics 1x35 "Tempest" multi reticle red dot sight and I'm very happy with it. My one, at least can be zeroed, and holds zero too. The choice of reticle is really nice (I like the eotech style one for day time and the crosshair style with nods). Its like an Aimpoint Comp M4 but not quite. That's a thumbs up from me. Short version: I took a punt with the Tempest and it paid off. I'd take a punt again.

As you'll probably know stairs can be very tricky, I'd be concerned that they "choke" the site to the point where a lot of the floor space isn't really used in game, with a lot of the action being concentrated on and near the stairs. So I think maybe rather then one big cqb site, you could have an "arena" on each floor. Of course the devil is in the detail! Thanks

I'm not saying its a good deal, far from it.. i just think its very, very average. I'm genuinely curious - do they ever sell for the £300 mark? I've never really investigated but I'd of thought that £300 in the box, label around the trigger guard (beanie baby style) would be very good deal indeed? Most of the NGRS i do see for sale seem to be big package offers with various accessories which pumps the price up so im really not sure.

yeah obviously - but prices, stock etc changes all the time. He's put a reasonable RRP, put it for sale for a reasonable % and i can't see anything in the advert about not accepting offers. swear to god people in this thread think they are this bunch:

I don't think he's dreaming - he's put an RRP which, you can check for yourself, is actually cheaper then many places are selling them for now. I just don't think he's happened to come across firesupport yet. Not to mention somewhere else could start selling them even cheaper for all we know. Or maybe firesupport sells all 4 of them over this weekend?

I think that's firesupport giving a really good price rather then that guy taking the piss. I see quite a few retailers are selling them for more than the RRP he lists there. Did you make him an offer?

Before the usual suspects kick off - yes we have private land and permission to use, no you aren't invited, no rifs or tactical gear was bought on our little walk about apart from the NV!

Is that a candyman custom at the top?

Monos are about the half the price and arguably more flexible/modular so im jealous too! Is this on your radar? https://atrg.blog/2019/11/16/accessory-review-acm-m300v-scout-light-white-and-ir-version/

Im gonna end up breaking these i just know it
