  1. Simply due to how long each has been around, there are definitely more upgrade options available for the Gen.3. However The Gen.4 has been out for a couple of years now and you can get frames in both black & FDE, a long with various styles of slides and outer barrels. Plus a whole host of internals. (I should know - I'm trying to move on a Guarder Gen.4 slide, outer barrel, frame, recoil spring and trigger assembly.) Rainbow8 will show you a good choice for both. Bear in mind the Gen.4 has 1:1 dimensions, whereas the Gen.3 is a bit wider than the real steel and likely won't fit holsters etc. Also the Gen.4 has the 15mm BBU, which helps maintain snappiness once a metal kit is on it.
  2. I should imagine it's still a pain in the arse if it gets shot out. Not like they immediately swoop down and swap them over for you during a skirmish.
  3. Mokyo Tarui! What are the cool kids doing with their empty boxes these days? 🤔

      @ShamalSome of these have price tags on, so they do need to be disposed of quickly!  I'm tempted 😬

      Stick em in the attic so when you come to sell the guns you can say “still in original box” so no matter how bollox’ed they are you can STILL only ask 17p less than the price of a new one !😉

      🤦‍♂️🤣🤣

  4. I should imagine other aspects will be cheap too. When I'm in Presov, Slovakia the beer is usually 80 euro cents to 1 eur and you can get a taxi anywhere in the city for EUR 2.50! Hope you enjoy! Some useful Slovak: Dakujem (jack-coo-yem) - Thank you. Prosim si ucet (pross-im sea ooh-chet) - Please may I have the bill. Hod sa jebat....(hodge sa ye-batch)....actually I'm not going to translate that one. Try it on a pretty lady though 😉 Fun fact, that was filmed in The Czech Republic but one of the conditions was that they didn't set it there. Besides, not trusting "mega hot chicks" is just good common sense.
  5. Didn't fancy including Vienna and/or Prague in that? My girlfriend is from Slovakia but I've never been tempted to visit Bratislava (she's from the Eastern part of the country). We spent some time in Prague recently and I really enjoyed it.....until the whole retinal detachment thing. For a future trip I would also recommend Gdansk. Rich in history yet modern and even a nice sideside near by (Sopot).
  6. New pistol is here, any guesses?

      @Cr0-Magnon Yes I have the Gen 2 Guarder kit, so Nylon. You can get them from Rainbow 8. Though only in black. Hopefully Guarder will reissue the other colours at some point as I'd like a full set.

      Good shout, I'd found it for 50% more expensive on another site as last I checked Rainbow8 were out of stock. Did you change the outer barrel too?

       

      Funnily enough I've had a big Rainbow8 order delivered today. I decided to build a "TM" Glock 19 from scratch using 100% Guarder parts, the frame for that is FDE. So I'm fine with all black for the 57.

      I got a Guarder Outer Barrel and made the Hop unit "ear" cuts that Maple Leaf did to theirs to prevent wear. I also drilled out the business end of the outer barrel as it was a little bit too small and caused BB's to hit the edge. 

  7. Airsoft is out of stock everywhere. At around £19.50 per mag, these are a tenner cheaper than you would get them for in the UK so that negates the additional postage cost. https://shop.jkarmy.com/kj-works-24-rounds-gas-magazine-for-kj-cz-p-09.html
  8. Sorry not necessarily related to the original question but definitely agree with this. I think it's a great feature and yet a lot of people complain about Marui (and some others of course) mags doing it.
  9. A moron if you were aware of his past behaviour, yes. I would assume that's not the case though? His main success when it comes to ripping people off is through trades. I really can't imagine this kind of deal with anyone I don't know/remotely.
  10. Damnit, I have a TM Micro Pro Sight.....tempted to put it on the V10 🤔
  11. I do love the Hogue style grips on these. They're very well done, again look much nicer than the AW version.
  12. Can anyone show me theirs for inspiration? I've already got a Marui V10, which is a great looking piece but of course plastic (great for actually using, slightly less desirable as a collectors piece). Guarder are due to release an aluminium frame and slide for it, which should fill the gap between the stock plastic and their steel offering, which as well as being heavy is around £300 for just the slide and the same again for the frame. I nearly bought a VFC Kimber Ultra Carry but they're just a bit plain looking for my taste (that may change with some polishing of the slide and aftermarket grips). There's also Armorer Works version of the V10, which you can get with trademarks from Asia but not sure about the build quality (finish/rattle). So yeah, any ideas?
  13. This should be in the appraisals section but what's the make/model? The paintjob will dramatically reduce the value.
  14. I like to think this place is owned by someone who's managed to combine their love for Airsoft and beer.

      I bet they have a large range of beers that very similar, but ever so slightly different.

      Well at the end of the day, they all do the same thing!

      Plus a good pub and a good airsoft site have another thing in common , they both are frequented by grown arse men who really should know better saying things like “watch this lads !” AND said lads shortly afterwards saying “Oohh that’s gonna leave a mark !” 😖

  15. I have a Gold Match, it's my favourite all-round pistol. I'm sure the D.O.R is as good, so it depends on which you like the look of.
  16. This advert is COMPLETED!

    A fantastic performer, so great in fact I bought two (the grey framed one the box depicts). However I am thinning my collection a little bit/giving myself an excuse to buy more down the road. How good is this pistol? Don't just take my word for it. It's just been announced that it's won the 12th annual Airsoft players award for best pistol (for a fourth time!). This one has been used a few times but still in great condition overall, with plenty of life left in it. I like having my guns be able to hop heavy BB's so installed a TNT T-Hop system (bucking and barrel). Also included are the raised set of sights (not installed), which enable you to aim while using a suppressor. I will include a gas mag, which can be used with a variety of strength gases. Being the metal slide version, this is happy to run on Co2 mags in the colder months. Runs about 280 - 290fps on green gas and 320 - 340fps on Co2. As with any gas gun this is just my experience and I make no guarantee due to gas, chrono and ambient temperature variances. Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier. Please PM any questions, I usually respond quite quickly.

  17. When I say AIR, you say SOFT!
  18. Was 335 on a 0.25 or 0.20?
  19. Fortunately the pain for my issue was relatively minor, actually it was really just the operation under local anaesthetic which caused any discomfort in that sense but yeah I was panicking about not being able to drive etc again. Although even that I was told I could legally do. Hope all is good now!
  20. That's meant to be read/imagined in Jeff Goldblum's voice, right?
  21. Ooh that's interesting. I was looking at those. The cheek weld doesn't look great though? I had to Google "Glaive" haha, yeah we need more on that! Cheers for the words of encouragement.
  22. @Hrimfaxi Loves his Golden Eagle shottie!
