    Seeing as this is basically a Hi Capa build thread now....has anyone done something interesting with a 4.3? Just bought a 4.3 Dual Stainless but starting to regret it as there doesn't seem that many slide options. So looking for inspiration.
  2. Cr0-Magnon
    That'd definitely be the most economical option. Although if the gun in question is a DMR platform, just buy another because....well, needs must and all that. The widebore barrels are more often used the other way round, where you'd install a stronger spring because of the FPS drop caused.
  3. Cr0-Magnon
    When Negative Airsoft installed an ORGA 6.23 widebore barrel in my GR25, it dropped the FPS from 485 to 400. I obviously can't with confidence say what kind of results you'd achieve but these barrels are known to drop the FPS. It also gave it amazing range. He's mentioned in his videos that it was the best range and accuracy he's ever gotten.

    I quite like the top half but the two halves don't blend as nicely as the AAP. From what I've seen the most accurate (to real steal) version will be the one with a 1911 lower, however that should also be the worst performer. Using an antiquated hop system is just an inexcusable cost cutting measure.

    I don't actually like adding things to this thread, especially those from this site. However I did have to laugh at "top of the range" when silver is the same price as any of the other colour options. Also £131.94 delivered from Patrol Base (it's actually the only colour they have in stock) or £121.50 second hand....

    This video confirms to me that I've become a mid-cap snob. Running around a corner firing twenty shots to hit one person you didn't even know for sure was there, just isn't appealing to me.

    Gonna wear my (just don't give) AFUK hat tomorrow. If anyone asks me my username, I'm going to tell them it's @Rogerborg and act like an arsehole all day.

      @Shamal - Damn, hadn't thought about that. I don't even have a sporran to keep my BB's in. I would have said I was you but I don't have enough Dad jokes in my repertoire for it to believable 😁

      Wow, what did I do to deserve that?

       

      I mean, other than acting like an arsehole all day, every day.

    After the vile vitriolic attacks these magnificent creations have suffered today, it's with a heavy heart I feel the need to post this....

      @Shamal - Which colour is your leg, FDE or Battleship Grey?

      let this be a lesson kids- this is what happens when you try to extract sympathy from the internet.

      @Cr0-Magnonhaha. Well at the moment neither. It's black and blue due to a tumble off the scaffold today!☹

    See I like the look of a P90 and owned one for a while. I sold it because I got tired (literally) of using the Lego brick trigger.
  10. Cr0-Magnon
    Oh yeah, all in good fun...I don't get in to "fur realz" arguments online.
  11. Cr0-Magnon
    LOL, OK G36 owner....each to their own.
  12. Cr0-Magnon
    I can understand the hate for Evo's. I run around with my little SMG version, taking out the £2000 bush sniper boi's left, right and indeed centre. In terms of guns I think are effective but I dislike. Add me to the long list of people who think HPA setups look awful. Thankfully my local site has banned such monstrosities.
  13. Cr0-Magnon
    I'd change a hop bucking on site but I wouldn't open a gearbox....OK maybe if Luke was sat next to me.
  14. Cr0-Magnon
    This has turned in to "which sling setup are you using at the moment?" But "lack of distance" for an Evo 🤔 I have a stock one and there's a stretch of field at my local site where I can max out the range from a particular line, hitting some black netting without really "lobbing" the BB's. So I am tempted to pickup a range finder and check the distance.
  15. Cr0-Magnon
    Totally this. Most of my collection is SMG's (incl' 2 x Evo's). I don't have a range finder but I know for a fact that a stock Evo outranges many much longer AEG's. I also love folding the stock and throwing it behind me on the two point sling, enabling me to freely use my pistol.

    I have been skirmishing for five years and one thing I could never understand, is how people managed just using mid-caps. I had always gone in the opposite direction and still have drum mags for my M4's, Evo's and even Glock/AAP. Playing almost with the attitude that just keeping the opponents heads down was a victory, even if I had to light-up the wall they were behind or bush beside them. However last weekend I changed up my "rig" to include pouches for MP5/EVO mid-caps. Bearing in mind Evo mid-caps are 75 rounds, I was especially surprised that even after a heavy "defend the village" game, I had only just started on my second mag. I also discovered that I found it satisfying when the gun stopped firing on empty and I had to use the bolt release after inserting a new one. So I think I'll stick with them going forward and just pick my shots more carefully. What have you changed/learned recently?
  17. Cr0-Magnon
    They're extremely well made and the BB gauge is a fantastic feature but in my experience, even when using a sidewinder style loader they're a bitch to fill much past the halfway mark.
  18. Cr0-Magnon
    I'm in but only if there's some good hazing.
  19. Cr0-Magnon
    Sounds like you have a site membership rather than UKARA (licence, LOL). Your UKARA should start with three letters, which are an assigned code for the site where is was gained. Really the best people to clarify with though would be the site.

    I'm not one for loadouts but today I've inadvertently gone Czech....something...

      Just wish the P-09 was Battleship Grey like the Scorpion. I do very much like both of these for form and function though.

      Nice if they matched, but they both look bloody good.  The tan pistol has really clean lines.

      Cr0-Magnon

      Haha yeah, just me being fussy but that's what I'm talking about -the pistol isn't tan, it's "urban grey"

  21. Cr0-Magnon
    I would agree with that from a purely practical standpoint, I do love the way it looks and feels though. I think the best upgrade is the wheel adjustment hop unit. I know the AAP is already more than capable out of the box but I feel adding the proper nub and arm system takes it to a whole other level.
  22. Cr0-Magnon
    Welcome to the club! I skirmished mine, complete with drum mag last week and although I probably could've gotten more kills with and AEG, each kill was far more satisfying. I was a little surprised by the cooldown though, as it was a hot day (around 26C). However if I tried more than half a dozen shots in a row, it did splutter a bit. Leaving it to rest for a minute or so brought it back to normal.
  23. Cr0-Magnon
    @Dalno - Perfect, thanks!
  24. Cr0-Magnon
    Quick one for the owners....from what I can tell hop adjustment is done by pushing the trigger forwards to reveal a dial. Is it best to do it with the bolt locked back or in default position?
  25. Cr0-Magnon
    You can ask UKFOB to make the adjustments so it fits an airsoft EVO before they send it to you. There's a company on facebook selling a variety of 3D printed externals but they're obviously not as solid as the real steel one you linked.
