  1. The mids disappeared fast tho. I think it was 10 mins from the restock notification to "out of stock" Fortunately I had signal at work and managed to nab 5.
  2. Anyone looking for the elusive beasts that are mp5 ngrs midcaps the following shop has stock, not affiliated just been trying to get some myself. https://www.skirmshop.es/en/mp5-tokyo-marui-next-gen-magazine-72rds.html
  3. Iirc throwing airsoft parts inside a Deact is reactivating....... Id rather not be the legal test case, especially if the spring is a bit "spicy" or in this case if the police lab playing with the regulator makes the fps go up..... Definitely regard as playing with Fire
  4. To be fair to site operators thats kinda linked to the "herding cats/inability of airsofters to understand safety briefing in 5 game on in 15". Don't get we wrong I remember trying a new site locally (run by company whose name rhymes with "burst and lonely") who thought naming and giving origin stories for each of the marshalls followed by a round of applause was an integral part of the safety brief to paying customers (see also taking the players out of the safe zone into a literally sub-zero temperature area to give a 45min brief).
  5. Is it worth pinning a reccomend not to buy list in here following the recent trend of I've bought a (for example) Raven model XXX and its new out of the box and doesnt work? In my case stuff I wouldn't touch under any circumstances without trying the exact item Im going to buy in the shop first. (Source I've been playing airsoft since 1995 I have a reasonable of experience in buying kit) Raven (any) Nuprol (rebranded WE with slightly more QC than Raven) Vorsk
  6. In his defense if its a cheap eotech clone the reticle is probably clearer and more visible from the front.....
  7. Don't get me wrong its an okay pissup/camping weekend with dogshit airsoft thrown in...... however for the same money there's at least 1 local festival which does the weekend camp/pissup/goodtimes with mates better and costs the same.
  8. Portsmouth based myself, figured "fuck it a game day is better than a sunday sat round bored" turned out I was wrong. @CannonfoddertCannonfodderthis was just a normal walk on with less people and therefore supposedly better marshall to punter ratio. My NAF stories are worse. That said all the marshalls on that day were too busy stood in a group discussin their saturday night to actually get involved in running the games.
  9. Welp...... Somethings gotta go in the holsters of all the "2nd hand" russkit thats coming out the ukraine at the moment......
  10. Marui perfect hits are manufactured to the kind of tolerances you'd use in bearing races for engineering, good consistancy, good accuracy. They may as well have been made for recoils. Most PTW owners that know of them swear by them too. Ive been using recoils since the first cqbrs came out over here and out of all the ammo Ive tried they are hands down the best .25s Ive experienced. No flyers, no cuboid bbs, no issues (other than the price). Generally if I lend a mag full of them to someone the first question is "where can I get some of those?". On an semi-related note anyone looking to shift some ngrs mp5 mids as I cant find anywhere with stock and need at least 4 lol.
  11. Hey at least they chrono...... I went to a walk on day at ground zero and they didnt bother. Oddly enough myself and the guys I went there with walked off at lunchtime after "oops we've forgot the chrono, anyone got a hot gun" "HPA players you're all set to legal fps, right" and the ever classic "your first mistake was using midcaps here". That last one was after identifying a particularly obviously dressed player to a marshall having expended 2 mags at him at close range and been ignored (the rifle I was using at the time was notorious for being freakishly accurate and consistant, it was like a laser and at the kind of range that bbs could be seen bouncing off him).
  12. I dunno mate. Naff pretty much describes the airsoft aspects of the weekend..... Pretty sure individually pulling out my pubes with tweezers would also be more fun than attending......
  13. Also.... where did you buy it from as certain shops apparently class stripping the slide off the gun to set the hop as "Voiding the warranty". As above tho if it's new and you've just bought it return it right now. Do not take tools to it, do not try and fix it just get your money back or a replacement.
  14. In my experience stock recoils are amazing with good quality .25s. If you can find some Marui Perfect Hit .25s you're in for a treat.
  15. I suspect he's thinking that people will pay over the odds in order to dodge proving a defense........
  16. @boskee define 'good'. From experience I'm not a fan of helmets, sweaty, not great vent and not particularly comfortable especially cheaper end of the market tho I did run a genuine protec for a while and it was still sweaty and hot. If you jump to actual ballistic helmets there's also 'heavy' in the equation. Tbh I normally run a baseball cap, revsion eyepro and a mesh/fabric lower guard.
  17. Eyepro........ Always go with recognised real steel brands you only get one set of eyeballs. Emerson, OneTigris etc are IIRC china based and can make as many claims as they like but are untouchable by any form of enforcement. Bolle, ESS, Oakley, Revision and other real steel brands are tested and proved...... TLDR Version, spend good money on boots and eyepro.
  18. Now one of the kewl kids. Waiting for my pre-order SD6 from Wolf to arrive. Now to get mids and batteries.....
  19. To be honest a LOT of the prices on DCA seem to have been decided following heavy use of the crack pipe.......
  20. So $170 for an Army Armaments capa, having played with a few of their hicapas and seen the internal and external build quality all I can say is that at least Dick Turpin wore a mask....
  21. 2 grand for lets be honest here.... an m4 with slightly different trades and giving money to Cybergun due to the licensing. Nah, you're all right mate.
  22. As above. Ive got 3 NGRS and have had multiple others from when they were first released currently including a 416 fitted with BTC spectre and full prommy bits internally. The one that gets used most is the bog stock one. If you need 349.999999fps to play competitively then maybe its time to look at your skillset. Throw good quality .25s in a bog stock NGRS and I guarantee you will have better range, accuracy and consistancy than at least 75% of the other people on site.
  23. Tbh the moment I see an hpa drum mag on a gbb I just assume its been flogged to death internally...... There's a reason the gbbr hicaps ain't a factory thing.....
  24. Hey guys. PDW stocks. Really fancy the Troy style one but G&P seem to have discontinued it. What other options are there that work well. Seen the B.A.D. one that RWA are offering. Tempted by the 5KU but I recall 5KU not being the best on build standards/quality. Ideally I want a semi drop in option that won't stop the bolt locking back etc
  25. Been to 2 AI500 events, Rype Village and the Sandpit. Both of which were marked by a lack of marshaling (including AI staff stopping the UCAP marshals from calling people on poor hit-taking etc). I have a theory that the winner is predetermined before the weekend starts as from the two times Ive attended it would be 'challenging' to actually accidentally run a game as lopsidedly as the AI staff seem to. Either way its pretty obvious that despite the rolling shitshow that the AI500 routinely is people will still pay £90 to attend.
