  1. Snow Wolf Cylinder is smaller, you need 702 specific (I ordered one by mistake) Fairly sure the original barrel was AEG compatible. Parts for the Novirsch SSG24 should be compatible.
  2. We have to call it Training In Built Up Areas so as not to cause offence...
  3. 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.
  4. 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...
  5. Genuine AK. Note the weathering is "polished" I see too many guns scrubbed with coarse sandpaper, often in places where they wouldn't wear.
  6. 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...
  7. I sense a Novirsch watch in the pipeline...
  8. 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...
  9. 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.
  10. 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. 😀
  11. I remember Matt Dean/Mobius Strip used to run a pair of tuned Infinities at a woodland site and he was lethal with them.
  12. I hear Kicking Mustang beat the record. Guiness disputes it but his scope cam clearly shows the hit. 😄
  13. I had a Western Arms Para Ordnance, could never get the hop adjusted properly. Ended up selling it cheap, now worth a fortune.
  14. I miss the old days of the "coke can chrono" 😉
  15. I may go on his Facebook page later and ask if Skirmshop are any good...
  16. There was an FOI request a few years back. I believe there have been a massive 18 prosecutions.
  17. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-57832053 OK, applying the letter of the law, if this is a real firearm, do you break the VCRA by building a LEGO gun?
  18. Oooh. Now if they could clone the hi cap too. https://www.airsoftzone.co.uk/600rnd-magazine-for-aa-12sgr-12-shotgun-tokyo-marui.html
  19. Sun Tzu. Know your enemy... I read The Guardian as well.
  20. This is just the kind of publicity we need... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9652713/Politics-student-24-ordered-Neo-Nazi-flags-tells-court-airsoft-team.html?adobe_mc=TS%3D1622881313|MCAID%3D2FABDF2E851586DD-60000AA674F51CF7
  21. I keep hoping Marui will put their gas shotgun system in to a SPAS 12 (with folding stock). And WE to produce a full metal Beretta 1934 and PPK. (And start putting on trademarks)
