Trying To Find One Of These (Help Me Hive Please)
John_W replied to Enid_Puceflange's topic in General Help
I followed that link you posted and my Malware/antivirus software warned me off. There are similar available from Magpull -
Why yes the Police can be a bit clueless at times .
John_W replied to Druid799's topic in General Discussion
Some time ago we had an officer from the Gun Crime Unit come in to the school I worked in to talk to the students. Caught the last part of her presentation where she spoke.about the law and replica weapons. Totaly clueless... -
WE TT-33 or SRC SR33 Threading of the barrel?
John_W replied to parallel-knight's topic in General Help
As above, the WE Tokarev has a threaded barrel. Apart from the Desert Eagle their guns seem to have this as standard. -
I hear they chuck you out once you reach 18...

I remember a team on Arnies who had a public team forum. They acted like they were Special Forces and had "Selection Weekends" and all sorts. And then there was Team SNAFU. Average age 17...

No, that wasn't one of Toby's legendary builds. I remember he had to drop the ROF on the Thompson as the mags couldn't feed fast enough to keep up. He was a genius with a gearbox, and managed builds with just high speed gears and motors that would take a Mosfet or HPA these days.

I remember someone running a FAMAS on a 10.6 NiCad. Used to rebuild it every couple of games when it shat the gears.

Well, since the incident of an intruder at Windsor with a Crossbow, the press have a new hobby horse and Prity Awful has requested a review of the legislation.

Closest I ever got to a stripper on site was Frank dropping his trousers to check for damage after I raked him knee to crotch point blank with an AK.

Any recommendations on active noise limiting earbuds?

We have to call it Training In Built Up Areas so as not to cause offence... -

For over ear, I recommend Peltors. I have a pair I use when RCO for the Cadets and they are brilliant. Turn up the sensitivity and they are like hearing aids, you hear better with than without. Also used them for TIBUA and been in a room with an SBS and trigger happy cadets firing 5.56 blank with no ill effects. Only problem I have is on indoor ranges they amplify the fans too much. -
You build such nice guns Matt.

Reminds me of many years ago, before there was an airsoft L85, the owner of Ground Zero built one by putting AUG parts in to a deactivated one. He couldn't see the problem...

Genuine AK. Note the weathering is "polished" I see too many guns scrubbed with coarse sandpaper, often in places where they wouldn't wear.

Reminds me of playing at a Big Game on a site near the South Coast where one of the Marshals was driving the "safety vehicle" while smoking weed...

I sense a Novirsch watch in the pipeline...

Another RIF incident in the news... Its only a matter of time now
John_W replied to Oneshotscott's topic in Latest News
Take a look at death rates in America. More people killed by Passive Smoking/second hand smoke than guns. The VCRA came about because Hazel Blears and the ACPO didn't like replica guns, and having failed to deal with "real" gun crime wanted a headline grabbing piece of legislation that made them look tough. And before the legislation, police forces were instructed to stop recording incidents where no weapon was fired or recovered as "unknown" and record them as "replica" instead... -
Unboxing videos that spend 50% of the time showing you a box, and are obviously unrehearsed/unscripted (umm, ahh, err) and are filmed on someone's camera phone with rubbish lighting. Hanging accessories on a weapon that you wouldn't see in real life (scopes and bipods on MP5Ks, drum mags on pistols, M4 mags on shotguns) Unrealistic rates of fire... And sorry, but HPA. I remember realy early airsoft guns in the 1980s that needed tanks, having to wire yourself up like a starship trooper seems pointless.

On the plus side, the Gun Control Network website has been offline for a few weeks now, and hopefully won't be back anytime soon. 😀 -
I remember Matt Dean/Mobius Strip used to run a pair of tuned Infinities at a woodland site and he was lethal with them.

I hear Kicking Mustang beat the record. Guiness disputes it but his scope cam clearly shows the hit. 😄
