@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.

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.

Now one of the kewl kids. Waiting for my pre-order SD6 from Wolf to arrive. Now to get mids and batteries.....

To be honest a LOT of the prices on DCA seem to have been decided following heavy use of the crack pipe.......

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....

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.

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.

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.....

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

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.

Oh yeah I forgot about that. Prommy gears, stock tm hop and internals. Mainly been used for low round count games

Price check. Going rate on a TM 416d with BTC Spectre. Dytac RAHG rail and original rail. Freshly serviced by combat south doing 345 on .2sl. Would include 4x pts PMAGs

Coming next Licking Mustard being Guiness Certified as the world record holder for "most obnoxious airsoft personality"

@Dentonboy I had this last weekend. Ended up last minute.com ing my kit and running round in the woods with a ngrs that really needs a service (240fps on .25s) and had the time of my life. Was competing with hicap heroes using low fos and midsize and getting some brilliant kills through field craft and thinking rather than eying on kit. Was a lot of fun. (Not as much fun as sneaking up on an oblivious Player whilst using an m60 but y'know)

I figured that however I know it shares a lot of DNA with the cz shadow series.

I've been offered an absolute steal of a deal on a B&T USWA1 with a broken hop part. I'm making the assumption that it's the same as the unit in the shadow etc but can anyone confirm? As an additional before I go down the rabbit hole of new gun, new mags etc are these worth the effort?

@AK47frizzle not to argue but have you seen the range TM tm trishots typically achieve when fed .25s despite them being fixed hop?

One final question if I may. Has anyone tried the firefly hop rubbers with the MWS, I know that soft is normally the option for sub DMR FPS guns but is there a limit on what soft will hop weighhtwise. Or (After all that) is the modify tan a better option?

So omega tensioner, yellow autobot and a 410mm barrel should be good to go then?

Just got back my Costa Carry build from a service with these guys and they are fantastic. Good comms, good service, good price. If you need parts or work done definitely a good place for it.

Evening gentlemen. Been a while. Finally built up a longer second upper. 350-400mm inner barrel. What brand and diameter and why? Eyed up an EdGI stainless... But £130 notes is a bit strong to say the least. An ML crazy jet (£50) seems okay procewise but my previous experience with them suggests they aren't the "bestest barrel evah" that I've seen them claimed to be. Stock TM VSR barrel any good? Honestly all I want is an inner barrel setup that doesnt stop half way up the outer. Ideally allowing a slightly tighter group out to woodland ranges on .28s/.3s or similar

Further down the line.... desired customer base. No point in running a site with planned out complex multi-objective games if 3/4 of your customers just want to play capture the flag and vice versa. I remember a few years back showing up to what was supposed to be a milsimesque skirmish at Longmoor (£50 game fee) to find that the company had had a brainfart and literally expected the clientele to be happy with "flag in the middle of the street needs to get to your base and not the opposing teams" type games. Suffice to say that pretty much everyone thought this was a waste of the sites possibilities and a damn shame given the games the operators in question normally ran. Game flow....... as an example nothing more tedious and game killy than someone sat on a choke point with a chest full of hicaps or a drum mag.

This can happen but in later versions there is a buffer in the lower reciever. I've not experienced it with mine. IIRC it was also linked with whether on not people were using the stock when firing.

Yup. I've had a visit from the old bill after buying a holster and a TLR1 torch from the states. Was kind of pathetic to be honest, they pitched up about 4 weeks after it'd been delivered. Knocked on the door asked if I had ordered the items and why, then just kinda wandered off.
