His head of design has a great job. "Put a Gate Titan in that VFC M4" "Put a Maple Leaf Autobot in that KJW Hi-Capa" "Make the MK23 carbine kit out of metal" "Put our logo on that CYMA Glock AEP" ...and now we have "Err....put an M-Lok section on that P90"

@Hrimfaxi - Now you've got to show up!
-
Also £250 seems a bit dear...
-
I haven't settled on a particular weight. I could hop 0.4's without issue but as you say, there doesn't seem much point at the ranges I'll use this. There are 0.3's in that drum because I wanted to use them up. I've found the drum does bump up the FPS, think it's filled with Abbey Predator atm.
-
FPS aside, I would highly recommend the hop unit. I love that I can have not enough hop, two clicks up too much, one click down perfect.
-
Just a 150mm maple leaf crazy jet, 50 degree flamingo bucking and the CNC wheel adjustable hop unit.

God I love this thing. 340fps, 25rps and feeds like a dream... VID_20210808_123131.mp4

Actually my main objection is the four questions marks in a row. That right there, tells you everything you need to know about a person.

You're not responsible for the actions of others.

@Rogerborg I tried to be nice and PM them to that effect. This is the response I got:

Sceptical about range of rifle claimed
Cr0-Magnon replied to Luke-1418's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I need to get a range finder as I've found a clear distance between two objects at my local site, which is the max my EVO will hit (I keep forgetting to try it with the others). When I say max, I mean as you say, a torsoish sized target without "lobbing" the BB. -
Sceptical about range of rifle claimed
Cr0-Magnon replied to Luke-1418's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
It's not completely unrealistic for a well-built (not just money poured in to) DMR to be hitting 70 - 80M. There's no exact science to achieving above average range and accuracy, so it would be impossible for us to say for sure. -
As above, very little value associated with "3x low cap magazines + 2x 7.4v batteries + 1x full bottle of ASG .25s BBs I think 3300 + Also a gun bag." As such I would rather pay £450 for a new one than £400 for a second-hand one I'd need to collect.

Would you stop raising irks of mine, makes me want to rant about subjects which have already been discussed to death. "Here's how much I want for my item but I can't be bothered to workout (Google) the Paypal fees or tell you how much I want to post it, because I haven't bothered to think about that either"
-
You've got a few now, is it the recoil element which attracts you or Marui quality?
-
You getting one?
-
Do you also walk around reciting Luke's "Don't Buy a Tokyo Marui Recoil" rant, like it's the opening monologue from Trainspotting?
-
I've been playing five years and have never even worn out a hop rubber!
-
Yeah, I did think that there must be at least one more. I genuinely read that as "selling my body"
-
For me having the option just puts too much pressure on the day. If it doesn't go well I'm like "I spent £600 on this bloody thing!" Saying that, I do kinda miss my TM SCAR L

I've found airsofters fit in to two main categories when it comes to their guns and gear: 1) The "cheap and cheerful" crew - Has a sub £200 primary, likely doesn't have a secondary and if they do it's something like a WE Glock which they've had for a half-a-dozen years. If something breaks they'll tinker and bodge it themselves, meaning they likely get the best GBP to kill ratio. 2) The "my collection" brigade - Takes delivery of a new RIF pretty much every week, uses each in one or two skirmishes at most before selling on. If anything breaks they'll send it off to a tech for "the works" I'm definitely in the latter but want to break the cycle. I was about to order a slide for my TM Hi-Capa Gold Match but then thought back to the other week when I got some great kills with it stock and realised in that moment I was more concerned with it shooting reliably than looking pretty, so why bother... The above seems to have little to do with with actual financial position. I know wealthy people who have basic guns & gear and people who've taken out loans in order to sink £2K into a RIF. I guess the topic of discussion is: While you're actually skirmishing, do you care about how your guns look etc? If not, does that also make you wonder why you've gone for the £1500 NGRS etc?. As an additional discussion, are there any airsoft habits you want to break? I spend hours browsing retail websites and enjoy the buzz of a new arrival but the shine soon wears off, so I've obviously got an issue to address.

What's up with other places such as reddit?
Cr0-Magnon replied to Ragingrental's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I was talking with Luke at Battle Lakes and he had the DSG MP5 he built himself to prove a point. One pull of the trigger to demonstrate the ROF and somebody immediately sprinted around the corner, asking how much to build one for him. -

Also seems to be because Luke builds guns for reliability, rather than the 349.9FPS & 60RPS on a hair-trigger that many of the sub-25 year old airsofters are obsessed with. -

Even with Facebook groups you get people piping up just to say something, even though they have no-idea what they're talking about. I've literally had people saying "I don't know if this is right or not but this must be the cause of the problem..."
