    How many of us have small springs hiding in our homes?
  2. Cr0-Magnon
    What are you talking about!? Most I've been to make SHOT show look like a flea market.

    I can hear the creaking from here. Only joking, love a bit of nostalgia. Thanks for sharing.

    When you play squash, you charge around a small walled court, smashing in to the walls and skirmming your racket a long the floor. As such squash players know they can't get a refund after one game, let alone sixteen. IMO, it's a long the same lines with an Airsoft gun. As soon as you take the tags off and throw it around the woods, their obligation ends.

    I noticed that too. I know they're cautious when it comes to H&K markings. Obviously Umarex "make" both the licenced H&K and Glock replicas.

    IMO, you should speak to people at game days (and ideally hold theirs) and go to shops, again getting an idea of what you like ergonomically speaking. In the meantime sort your UKARA, otherwise you may regret dropping £300 on a brightly coloured one.

    I can't help with your specific question I'm afraid. However I have bought from them a few times and can tell you that the vast majority of negative feedback they receive is because if you annoy them, they will literally tell you to fuck off. Usually nothing to do with the items they stock.

    May sound silly but have you checked your chrono is reading as you'd expect it with your other guns? I had one that started giving seemingly random readouts. At first I thought it was the gun but bought another and was getting the results I expected.

    He should have just marketed it as a GBBR SSG-1.

    Do you think it prudent for me to keep a screenshot of this Wikipedia article on my person, when attending a bog standard weekend skirmish?

    I could go back through the videos he sent and list them but really I believe teching is less about replacing parts for more expensive ones and more about knowing which areas to address when a gun isn't performing the way you want. He spends so much time modifying existing parts and fine tuning, that really most of the expense ends up being labour. As I'm sure he'd also say, while there are tried and tested quality parts, what works in a gun varies massively, not only between make and model but even two examples of the same! Saying that, I do have a warhead motor in the G&G M4 and that thing is phenomenal. Instant trigger reaction and doesn't seem to get hot in the same way a normal Airsoft motor does. Again though, it went straight in to my gun. For others, extensive modification could be required to get it working perfectly. That's where experience comes in and exactly the kind of thing I'm happy to pay for.

    I'm envious of those who can do it themselves. Must be very rewarding.
  13. Cr0-Magnon
    I've just had these two DMR's built by Negative Airsoft. There really is a hell of a lot more involved than just changing the barrel, hop and spring. If you're a decent enough tinkerer, then you'll likely have some fun learning a long the way. I'm obviously not, which is why I just put my hand in my pocket from the start.

    Yeah, there are a few things you can do with an AAP.... VID_20210808_123131.mp4

    Didn't you make a video on the TM LCP? How are you getting on with it? At all usable in a real skirmish? Let's face it, most of us - especially woodland skirmishers, use a sidearm far less than we expect to.

    Hopefully the pictures speak for themselves. However I can tell you that I took a TM G17 Gen.4 that I'd skirmished once and added quite a few high-end aftermarket parts. Resulting in an aesthetically pleasing and high performance finished product (which hasn't been used in a game since). So we have: TM G17 Gen.4 - £150 Nova Wilson Combat slide, outer barrel and sights - £175 (professionally installed, for perfect running) TTI flat tuneable trigger (currently set at a short but reliable travel) - £25 CowCow Shortstroke spring - £30 ZCI inner barrel - £15 Maple Leaf Bucking - £10 Total (not including labour or postage) = £405 Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier. Please send any questions via PM as I don't get notifications for anything asked on the listing.

    As per title, this has only been used in a game twice and it performed very well, as you'd expect from these little beasts. These are great out of the box, so all I've done to this one is add the bearing spring guide and a different spring to bring it to 340FPS (they're around 310FPS stock). For those who don't know, some of the features include: true quick change spring (takes about 20 seconds and one allen key), ambi selectors, three round burst and folding stock. Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier. Please PM any questions as I don't get notifications of anything asked on the listing.

    Unskirmished but some marks present from changing various parts and on the outer barrel from racking etc, as well as other minor marks possible. This one has turned out nice and snappy, with decent gas efficiency. A good degree of realism from the quality metal slide, nylon fibre lower and full trademarks. Only selling as I enjoy buying and building more than storing them in a cupboard. It is of course an expensive pastime! Build list: Tokyo Marui G19 Gen.3 - £125 Guarder CNC Aluminium Slide - £105 Guarder Steel CNC Outer Barrel - £55 Guarder Nylon Fibre Frame - £40 Guarder Nylon Fibre Mag Release - £6 Guarder Steel Recoil Spring (150 + 180%) - £17 Guarder Steel Rail Block - £10 Guarder Mag Base (×2) - £22 Guarder Lightweight Nozzle Housing - £15 Guarder Nylon Fibre Night Sights - £13 TM G19 Additional Mag - £25 Total = £433 If you are a serious potential buyer, I can take photos of specific areas and provide shooting videos. Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier. Any questions are usually answered quite quickly but please PM as I don't get notified of anything asked on the listing.

    As per title this has not been used in a game but minor marks from racking/plinking are present. Comes with 2 x Mags. Which is a big plus as they are hard to come by. One of which I only took delivery of recently, so is near perfect. The other may need the feedlips replacing as BB's do get pushed out prematurely. Not to be the "easy fix" guy but I don't need anything else from Taiwan atm and not desperate enough to pay postage for just those. The metal slide and licenced trademarks make this an appealing replica. Useful features include working decocker and external hop adjustment. Performs nicely too with the right gas. Chronoing it indoors (around 21C) on WE 2.0, it was shooting 320 - 330fps. So harder hitting than your average pistol but as with any gas gun "results may vary" Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier. Please ask any questions via PM as I don't get notifications for those posted on the listing.

    I've got one of these. Seems accurate but yeah, didn't bother with the mounting tubes and have shot the hell out of it. Whoops.
  21. Cr0-Magnon
    I very nearly picked one up this year but decided 40 round gas mags weren't going to be enough for me in woodland. I'm sure they're fun in general but I think the novelty would soon wear off when I start feeling massively outgunned.
  22. Cr0-Magnon
    Airsoft retail doesn't work like that. This stuff is coming in shipping containers from different suppliers. As such you'll see "Marui Restock" "CYMA Restock" "Double Eagle Restock"....you get the point. Once those batches have sold out, it could be several months.
  23. Cr0-Magnon
    Oh sheeet. Not sure you could pay me enough to keep that in my house (sorry OP!). I bought my first airsoft gun from there. Didn't do too badly though as it was a WE F(P)226.
  24. Cr0-Magnon
    The only good metal 1911's are CO2. Which you obviously wouldn't want to use on a TM base gun.
  25. Cr0-Magnon
    Especially if you are working on a bolty, access to a chrono will make your life a lot easier. As mentioned above, spring power varies from manufacturer to manufacturer and even from spring to spring (by the same manufacturer) in some cases. For one of my AEG's I was getting 325fps on a M115, so an M120 should have given me 340fps. However buying a Nuprol M120 put me over 400.
