Wow, this has gone down about as well as when someone signs up just to recruit for a team and makes a long list of stringent demands, they expect applicants to adhere to.
They definitely look the bollocks. Of course the LCT version is going to be superior in the build department, but I just know I'm going to be miserable with a long and heavy gun. PB actually had them in stock the other day, I assume when they get them back in, they'll have added £30 - 40 to the price tag.
Should be a basic job for a tech, may be best taking it to a local retailer. I had a quick Google and the first one I'd heard of in that area is https://airsoftdirect.uk.com/ in Hull. Although don't take this a recommendation, if they even offer such services.
I really like Invicta Battlefield in Tonbridge, Kent but all of their games have a two medic band rule. This effectively gives every player three lives at a time. This becomes especially frustrating when using a DMR/BASR, because a small team of five people behind some cover would take fifteen hits to be cleared.
This seems a fairly common occurrence. I've definitely experienced it more than once. I shot two guys with my DMR, they walked until they found a team mate, who I also shot as soon as he got the medic band in his hand, he then handed it to the guy he was supposed to be healing, who was apparently automatically back in the game to medic him back in. It took another five or so hits of this three person unit before they decided to concede.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Has anyone built a DMR using this as a base gun?

I understand the externals are ABS but is it of the non-creaky variety? I do like an interesting looking DMR but in reality some are not great to lug around all-day due to length or weight, so this actually appeals to me, despite the reduced realism.
Anything else to be aware of?
38 here, only been playing since I was 31. Fortunately my health is decent enough but yeah age-wise, you've definitely got some time to get stuck in. I often wake-up on a skirmish day really not fancying it but then ask myself "would you rather spend it sat on the sofa"? Even if you just go for a morning sesh, it at least feels like you've had a bit of fresh air and a runabout.
It's the same with the KJW version, sorry not sure why it is though.
I will add that WE Gen.4 Glocks aren't copies of the Gen.4 Marui - The WE was around for several years before TM released theirs. The TM also has a different hop unit, outer barrel and some pin differences etc in the frame etc. Not sure what diameter the WE nozzles are though? The TM Gen.4's are of course 15mm.
Good as in stylish? Because performance-wise, the stock plastic one is your best bet.
If you desperately want a metal one, in my experience Airsoft Masterpiece are much nicer than Guarder.
OK so it'll be at least third-hand.
Around £200 for the Evo, £15 for High cap, £30 for drum. Not much value for the mock suppressor. Batteries also aren't worth very much, especially as you will struggle to post (although possibly could be exempt if "in equipment").
Say £250 - £275 incl' postage and Paypal fees. While Evo's do tend to hold their value quite well, I'd be concerned that this is likely not the latest model, it's had a few owners and it's developed a fault (could need a new ETU). Nothing stopping you listing for higher and reducing as you feel over time, really depends how quickly you want to sell.
This has been designated the "R615D" and the colour looks much better in the pre-order pics. I like that they include an SRO replica for only $18 more, as well.

Will more than likely pick one up.
Lightly used, from memory during just one skirmish.
Made from a very high quality polymer and of course holds twice as many rounds as most mid-caps, but you'll need a strong speed loader.
Stated price includes PayPal fees and postage. Please ask any questions via PM as I don't get notified of anything added to the listing.
There's no such thing as upgrading a TM GBBP. You put a metal kit on it and then spend loads more money, desperately trying to get it to perform almost as good as it does out of the box.
