Why not to buy: 12mm thread.

 

Not an issue if you're looking for a compact pistol and don't intend to over-compensate for anything.

@Rogerborg - Errrr.. yeah not an issue for me....I mean the thread thing, not the....nevermind. I do actually enjoy this guys reviews though.

Ye I had one of these. They were really cool. However, I saw pot metal seams on mine and was afraid it would crack if I accidentally dropped it.

@AK47frizzle - It definitely looks the part and this is the "Silo Spec" one with RA-Tech steel parts and TNT barrel & bucking, so shoots very well too. This won't get skirmished much, if at all as it weighs a ton, the mag is a bit of a pain to load and you need the worlds tiniest allen key to adjust hop. I agree the metal could be better but it feels amazing in the hand, I love the full travel slide and it's never splutters even in fairly cool weather.

Im thinking of getting the l6 version at some point and running it as a primary because it was pretty damn accurate with the fixed barrel when I still had it.

@Cr0-Magnon shhhhh, don’t take away my Get Out of Jail Free card 😉

“Eastern but Central”? That sounds like a thing only a Pole would say 😁

@ziCk_ - Haha no, their neighbour to the south - Slovakia.

You know what they say, you miss every shot you don’t take... I missed anyway 🤪

@Sitting Duck - Maaaatee...you're not going to get me down - this one has a metal handguard! I didn't even realise, thought it was just UK mark-up bringing the price to £150 but nahhhh...you get cold hard steel (Chinesium) for the extra £35 too!

Blimey grab a few more then...

 

 

 

 

 

just kidding btw...

& is followed by Brenda clip

 

I just thought of you & your affection to DE HB's - she might react in a similar way

 

that aside - completely understand buying something you really like more than once (or twice etc...)

 

But people like Brenda might be a little taken back to find you bought ANOTHER ONE...

 

 

@Sitting Duck - Haha, yeah all good fun. I have high-end guns in my collection but these are compact, have great features and are cheap. Perfect for my little cousin-in-law who always seems to cake my RIF's in mud!

bolties at 1j is basically airsoft hard mode.

 

problem i have with it is you just end up so frustrated at landing a beautiful shot, the target not taking it, and being stuck without the ability to quickly follow up and often not wanting to expose your position to call them out on it.

 

which is probably why my bolty can only lift .32's and i have 2 assault guns that can lift .48's......

The issue I had with running a 1J BASR is the guys I shot at 15-30M ranges cried like little bitches because one was "scared of a sniper that close shooting at them" and the other was convinced I was running 500FPS and demanded.inwas chronod.

 

Wasn't worth the hassle so dropped an M150 in and sat an extra 20M back.

What Adolf said.

In this country there is this retarded mindset that one bb is not a hit and people need to bleed to call them.

So most of the times I shoot at people, hit them, they shrug it off and keep playing, until I blast them in the face or where it hurts the most (inner thigh/armpit says hello), but at that point it's not fun anymore. I'd like to play more as a sniper because the overall role is extremely fun (slipping past opponents, realying their positions and movements to my teammates, taking shots to disorient them, you know, what makes it fun) but gets old fast when people just consider you an inferior being.

It's a good bit of kit I'll have you know! Plus it was like £50 delivered as I got it on special offer.... So meh. 

I really hope your talking in jest and not actually butt hurt

Haha, yeah of course. Wouldn't get upset over someone making a joke about my chosen brand of scope. 

Hope you had another enjoyable day bud!

that top right patch adds another 15m of accuracy

turning any John Smith into John Wick

 

if you can't talk, then you need to master these hand signals

then you will totally dominate the field...

 

 

old - very old but still funny...

 

aim for the ass

&

stay in front of me where it's safe

 

are my favourite commands

I do miss it, and whats worse is this has happened right when i've finished all my current projects so i have nothing to tinker with

@Shamal - Damn, hadn't thought about that. I don't even have a sporran to keep my BB's in. I would have said I was you but I don't have enough Dad jokes in my repertoire for it to believable 😁

 

 

 

 

don't forget your kilt and bagpipes

Wow, what did I do to deserve that?

 

I mean, other than acting like an arsehole all day, every day.

 

No worries it’s marked as sold now sold last night.

thanks 

The slide is super light and well done overall. I've still got a small trigger niggle but looking pretty good so far....

Very slick. If I can get my hands on a second hand TM G19, I'll probably build something similar.

@Cr0-Magnonby kit I meant the slide kit  

@rocketdogbert - Oh yeah, definitely not. I'm about £500 deep. Because there aren't enough black Glocks in this world!

 

@Adolf Hamster - I concur. I could then put the AAP-01 in the tan Glock case I have....which makes sense in a roundabout way.

I want the aap-01

It’s not a bad thing........ honestly 🤣🤣

Open your own store instead of spamming our boards?

 

You shifted those H8r's yet? If they were both Gen2 I'd have snapped your arms off. As it is I'd have to buy them both, move the "black bits" onto the Gen2 and then use that leaving an ugly Gen1 in the cupboard 😞

Zed adventures have their first game in the zoo site this weekend. See if you can get in there

Oh, good shout!

cant afford to pay a tech lol haha nah i like to try then if i cant ill look into a tech but so far its all pretty vasic stuff ive done shimming,changing a piston and dropping in a drop in mosfet lol just waiting on my new gears and motor to arrive

Shame his video on my BOLT & ICS got corrupted as he said the ICS was a total bitch to work on and would've been a good vid...  You don't see many ICS guns on his channel.  Your CYMA does look the nuts mate..    Will be sending him my Mk46 A&K at some point.

 

@Monkman - That's true actually and I am curious about the split gearboxes. Nearly picked up one of their latest MP5's recently.

Sounds like you've answered your own question there...

@Steveocee - I genuinely wish that was the case but doesn't seem like people are much interested in that. The airsoft videos which seem to pull the biggest numbers on youtube, are drama in a game and those which spend thousands on mystery boxes.

 

Case in point, this video:

 

 

4.2 million views of a small kid getting hurt and likely never wanting to ever play our sport again. This disappoints me on so many levels.

@Cr0-Magnon is actionhobbies the cheapest place you know of btw?

@DestrO - The only other place I saw them was Crawley Surplus and they were the same price. I haven't done extensive research though, just so happens I follow them both on facebook.

@Cr0-Magnon alright thanks.

Definitely VFC over WE, I've been owning both for 5+years, WE became a little wobbly over time while vfc holds it sturdy through out all these years

I'd spend more money on VFC altough they aren't the best either. Marui NGRS MP5 is the closest alternative (probably).

I may well just wait to see if another is announced this year. Realistically I'm not desperate for one and none of the current offerings are perfect.

@Cr0-Magnonahh, that makes more sense, how long was it of those 5 weeks that it was held in office? (if you know)

Collected from Novritsch 10/02. It was with Border Force from 14/02 - 03/03. They then sent the release confirmation and it's taken UPS from then until now to clear and deliver.

doesn't sound too bad with the five weeks part now that you put it like that to be honest

@Shamal - Which colour is your leg, FDE or Battleship Grey?

let this be a lesson kids- this is what happens when you try to extract sympathy from the internet.

@Cr0-Magnonhaha. Well at the moment neither. It's black and blue due to a tumble off the scaffold today!☹
