  1. Really depends what you want to achieve. You don't need to do anything until something breaks, but as you say it's a massive rabbit hole and ends up being far from an £80 pistol. If you want to make a start with some solid basics, I would recommend changing the hop rubber (I like 50 degree flamingos) and some kind of short-stroking. Waldo Customs do a pretty good spring and buffer set for this, but there plenty of others around. Oh and you may want to install a flat/adjustable trigger if the long pull bothers you. I've done all of this plus added a 150mm maple leaf crazy jet inner barrel, Black Mamba upper receiver, AA rotary hop unit and CNC magwell. I can now hop whichever weight of BB I want at 1.1J.
  2. I understand torches in darkened CQB hallways etc (even then power should be restricted), but intentionally dazzling people in woodland games is considered airsoft now?
  3. Does anyone know if they're OK to use with standard nubs? I know they're usually paired with omegas but in my KWA ERG hop chamber, the pressure applied seems to over-hop 0.28's with no hop applied. If not, which other nub works well with them?
  4. Depends on your preferred ergonomics too, as they're due to release a Gen5 MOS version.
  5. Fully custom = changing the hop rubber and nub? 🤔
  6. If I were you, next time you're at the site (obviously not a public place etc), ask them if you can set your hop and then use at at least 0.25g's when you chrono. I don't know of any sites which will prevent you from playing if you're <1.1J on a 0.25g. With such a short barrel you're probably experiencing joule drop (ie what's 1.18J on a 0.20g, may only be 1.05J on a 0.25g).
  7. Only 330 on 0.20's though and £400 cheaper if you use discount code IDONTGIVEAFUK...
  8. Yeah, they usually run fortnightly games on a Sunday. https://www.red1airsoft.com/
  9. @Colin Allen - Ahhh yes I remember the wildlife thing. I haven't been for ages but as I say generally had a positive experience there, definitely understand your sentiments though. Lack of communication and authority of Marshalls is a pretty common issue from what I've found.
  10. @Beorn - They're decent bunch at Red1 Chislehurst. I did find that some of the game modes led to wandering around, not knowing which direction the enemy team was shooting from. Twice I stumbled across gun fights between people on the same team. Also yeah, most sites have rubbish toilets, Portaloos at best. Driver Wood in Crawley and Battle Lakes in Kent have proper plumbed indoor cubicles and hot running water though. Funny you mention that actually. There was one player being repeatedly shot, putting their hand up but not moving. Turns out he was part of a group with half of them on each opposing team. He was playing silly buggers to stop his friends on our team from shooting his mate.
  11. I went for a woodland skirmish for the first time in just over a month on Sunday. I really had to convince myself to get ready and jump in the car etc. Even out on the field I was feeling a bit lethargic, especially after hop issues forced me back to a gun with just iron sights (I've really grown fond of using a magnified scope, even on a <350fps). My biggest complaint atm is the amount of people just kinda skulking off when they're hit. Especially those who wander around in the middle of the "battlefield" without their hand up (and teammate shooting over their shoulder). I really don't want to overshoot people but I'm sick of giving them the benefit of the doubt and slowing up the games because of it. I did actually have a good time in the end though, after some satisfying sequences. I suppose maybe that's the morale of the story, you sometimes have to be the one who makes it enjoyable for yourself.

    Never fitted, so as new. I had to have these imported from Asia.

Stated price includes PayPal fees and postage. Please PM me any questions, as I don't get notified of anything asked on the listing. I can usually post within two working days, if it looks like I'll be unable to fulfil this, I will update you accordingly. Please do not chase before then.

  13. I used them for Cerakoting last year. They were apparently in the middle of a move at the time, but communication was poor and it took forever. However it's not like they're scammers or anything.

    These come free with Gen.3 TM G17's. Does anyone have an unused pair they don't need?

  15. I'm especially suspicious after he tried to gaslight me earlier...

    Yes, now you've deleted the pic of the Hi-capa, all is clear 👍

    Your pictures show two different pistols. Which is for sale in this listing?

    *Price reduced as now only includes 1 x extra mag* This lightly skirmished, multi-award winning pistol comes with an urban grey lower and metal (non-suppressor) slide. Internally it has an upgraded TNT barrel and hop rubber and this version apparently comes with an upgraded trigger (it's certainly responsive and light). In total I'll include 2 x CO2 mags. Currently these are leak free, but the reality is Airsoft mags do suffer from leaks without prior warning, especially CO2. Comes in a nice pistol case, with factory cut foam to hold everything where it should be. Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier. Please PM any questions, I usually respond quite quickly. I can usually post within two working days, if it looks like I'll be unable to fulfil this, I will update you accordingly. Please do not chase before then.

  19. TM have just announced their Gen.5 MOS too.
  20. For some strange reason the mags didn't want to go in using the CTM lower and Black Mamba upper. So I've reverted back to the AA lower. Not the most creative colour combo, but I think it looks very slick!
  21. Don't take this the wrong way but the majority of your posts on the forum are about part longevity. There are way too many factors for anyone to be able to give you an accurate answer. Just enjoy the toy and replace parts if they break or wear out 👍
  22. Are these really upgrades though? Chances are the gun performs worse than it did before.
  23. Are you just upgrading for the sake of tinkering or do you have specific expectations? If it was me, I would go for a Maple Leaf Crazy Jet inner barrel and 50 degree Flamingo rubber. Don't worry about anything else until it breaks.
  24. .....and the circle is complete. I just couldn't stay away from this upper.
