I can't turn off the unreal tournament announcer voice in my head.

Staring down the barrel of an Evo set to safe.

think there is a new season of one punch man thanks for reminding me. 

soldering kit

'Abbey 144a Maintenance Gas' (£6) for storing in gas mags when not in use. Saves the seals from drying out. I swear by it after leaving all sorts of other gases inside for weeks. Eventually they've given out across all manner of gas mags......but not since I've been using the 144aMG after every game.

Roll of PTFE tape. Literally costs 70p

Thats not just a forum thing. Thats a life thing

yeah, pretty accurate. i guess some people are just wanting to be reassured that they haven't made a mistake although some folk seem to get mighty defensive if they get told otherwise.

thing is advice on here is just that- advice, the only thing you get for giving it is a reservation of the right to say "i tole you so!"

Just remember , ‘advice’ is just another name for an opinion hopefully based on personal experience .

And many on here know my feelings on opinions,

“Opinions are like arseholes , everybody has one and nine times out of ten both are full of shit !” 👍

Did somebody burn his patch?

wait a few more days, cheaper M4's will be around  

I don't think being arsey about it and bugging them will get me any decent good will on a discount I certainly wouldn't go out my way to help someone who doesn't wait their turn. Kicking up a stink less than 24 hours after they had it delivered seems silly.

Who said you need to be arsey? Simply acquiring whether they received it and asking for a timeline on fix/inspection to me, as a paying customer is more than exceptable. 

Are you a happy customer?

If you have the problem with knocking the ambi fire selector give me a shout as I probably still have some modified switches somewhere.

HIIII 

Happy to swap some beer tokens for 2 if you find them...

Yep that doesn't sound right.

@Albiscuit PM what you need and will sort something. Didn't I already sort you some?

Warranty!  That's fucked. 

@TheFull9 interesting I get black gunk of my rails every time I clean them post game day and it's a TM hi-capa stock slide. 

Could be impurities in the gas or dirt in the environment.  GBBs don't inherently create substantial fouling inside themselves when shot the way firearms do.  I mean heck maybe the TM plastic wears away just a tiny bit every game and that accumulates, who knows, I'd suspect the gas or environment first though.

The black is the pot metal the TM frame is made of slowly wearing away.

I do a basic clean of my pistol after every day / outing / event.

Thats if its a clean day, if its wet or muddy then during the day - its amazing the state they get in after a couple of hours, especially if you have trenches!

Your replacement safety is on it's way. I got held up (forgot to post).

Cheers pal, Since it's an annoyance that can be changed it's deffo worth swapping.

Tempting but I can't in good conscious buy accessories before I get a second gun and my 3 bottles of .20g blaster bbs won't get used then.

Going to get a few bits and bobs for my bday in May but otherwise I'm saving up for AEG #2 Was tempted to get GBBP but with the new TM hicapa around the corner I will wait for it. 

Would a 2nd AEG get used if you're rocking an Evo?  I keep buying AEGs, but they're all cheapos and about as good as each other, i.e. basically usable but with slow trigger response.

Evo + GBB pistol is probably ideal for the Depot.  It's what Ryan Silver Fox uses.

I'm paranoid it will stop working and I'l be left with just a pistol in an outdoor game crying like a pleb. 

Plus I'm holding out for http://impulse101.jp/en/gbb/tokyo-marui-hi-capa-dor-direct-optics-ready-gbb-4319 so I could be waiting a while to get that with just a single base TRMR to fall back on.  

Might be an idea for me to get my ass to section 8 to see if I even like outdoor games before buying a second AEG.

Dirty magazine tracks 

All 3 magazines emptied today no issues. 

I start the stack on the right and make sure the follow is on the bottom left bb. Duno if it makes a difference but I like consistency 

JD Airsoft will have them soon, sign up to their email notifications

I have been signed up since  February.😭

I messaged them in March and they said they would get stock in late April none appeared, Messaged them in August no ETA

I messaged them and got a near instant reply and they said soon

what have I done. I posted it as a joke and everyone wants one. 🤣

This fails at Rule 1 of Airsoft.

Don't be a cunt

Now, we ranted about blind firing and you come up with this? xD

Silly hobbits.  Why ensure that two people are unhappy by moaning?

I regularly call "hits" on myself despite not feeling them when someone opens fire at a range where they should have hit me. 

They're not going to believe that they missed / misfired, and I can't effect that.  All I can do is ensure that at least one of us is happy.

I'm basically the Jesus of airsoft.

I will ask Johno if we can get you a crucifix installed on one of the sangers 🤣

If not just crucify him ! 😈

If I can get over the honking front end I might be in to it. You going on the 28th? Seeing it next to my evo might convince me it's fine. 

Nope, I've been given a tongue lashing by the missus, and not in the good way.  My next permission slip is for May 12th.

The other torch that I run is this 'un:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152743158670

UK sellers are available.  I link to that package for an example, as it contains batteries, a charger and the remote switch.

It's intended as a pistol torch (and works well on a G17) but is also nice and compact on an AEG.  It's surprisingly bright as it runs at 7.4V - I judge my torches on the number of "Fook's sake, mate!" protests, and that produces plenty of them.

I'm looking at S8 for the 12th so could be June till I'm back at Depot also that's old firm day so finding people who aren't busy to play with is getting tough bloody football!

I prefer the form factor for sure of that small one but the laser puts me off. Guess I just need to realise I already knew what I wanted and was checking if there was anything similar or better for the money or less.

Your red dot is that the ncstar one? https://www.zerooneairsoft.com/product_info.php?cPath=275_553&products_id=2497

The look is growing on me and might match the strange look of the evo.

*Pulls trigger*

"Ow! Gettifah Y'BASA!"

*Wry Smile*

So... you failed?

Fun times, fun times, much Guarding was done, and surprisingly little dying for the Emperor.

And I do actually seem to be getting TK'd less now that I'm sticking a lasgun barrel or a helmet with an Aquila on it round corners.

Mine is staying open it seems. And im thinking one last hurrah before everything gets locked down might be fun.

Its not like my playstyle lets them get close enough to infect me anyway.

It's going to be months before we get to TK each other. 😢

Try sitting it upside down and put a good squirt/drip of silicone in the hole just In case the O-ring has dried out a bit and needs a ‘drink’ .

I went with green as pretty much everyone is black or tan at my place so I should be able to spot my bag easily. To be fair the yellow is also yellow in the inside so you can find all your gear easily against the contrast damn wish I'd have noticed that. Also if you are stopped and searched for some reason I don't think they can claim you were trying to conceal a bright yellow bag 😁

The yellow is a probably bit OTT. 

That's a fair point, as regards identifying your own kit. I picked up a teal gun case this year for similar reasons. 

Wow, 70% discounts on all bags and packs, I guess this summer is a write-off for Mountain Warehouse.

That is a great deal, but I'm sticking with my wheeled trolley case so that I can kid myself about how much excess junk I've stuffed in there.

For the techs here is the old gears looks like it sheared the axle off

Good gravy, those things are wrecked.

So, tell us more about how you got the missus to peg you.

Told her my back and had one whip past my ear and the next one on my ass. Turns out she can't aim. 

Well, that's a bag of wank.  Mine are still OK, but you're not the first to report this, or some sort of crazy starring on the inner lens.

I'm kind of assuming that at some point I'll need to disassemble mine and clean them, or replace the inner lens with bits of PETG.

I inspected the other lens too and found star shapes as well

Never taken them apart before but they are useless now so found they are pretty easy to pop apart. Was a gift for my xmas and 20 quid isn't expensive but used less than 10 times I am disappointed.

I read some guff about drying them out then sealing with silicone. Fek that

You can replace those inner lenses with any clear plastic.  I'd go with 0.75mm thickness of PETG. A5 will be more than sufficient for one pair:

If you need to replace the tape, I'd suggest 2mm thick double sided black foam tape.  Just cut it into a thin strip and run it round the edge, being sure to butt it up against itself at the join so as not to leave a gap.
