    I don't comment much on here anymore but as someone who's built and sold many Glocks at a massive loss, this did leave me chuckling at the gall of this ad. His breakdown of costs actually includes a £65 labour charge (that he's invoiced himself!?). Then he's asking for the total new price + "labour" + £20 postage. Why didn't I think of this when I sold this one which had a Guarder aluminium slide, steel outer barrel, nylon fibre frame, metal piston head, 150% recoil spring, uprated hammer spring, Flamingo bucking and Guarder lightweight mag for £175 posted!? 🤔 Also don't get me wrong, the Gen.3 is still a solid platform but if he wants even half of what he's asking (plus billing this as a "sleeper build"), then he really should have based it on a Gen.4. Possibly he's not bothered about selling it, which is good because the chances of it going for anymore than about a third of what he's asking, are slim.

    I picked this up recently but changed my mind, so it was never installed. Seems decent quality. As per the photos it's also adorned with Knights Armament trades. From what I understand it should fit most M4 style RIF's but compatibility and installation would be entirely on the buyer. Only what you see in the pics is included, I am unable to assist if you need additional parts for it to fit. Stated price includes PayPal fees and trackable courier. Please ask any questions via PM as I don't get notifications for anything asked on the ad.

    Quite a few guns, the AAP-01 being a prime example need the hop set in order to feed well. I would fully expect an AAP with no hop applied to just roll BB's out of the barrel. There are so many people who've sent their AAP's back as not working due to this, that many websites now clearly state it. Also bear in mind that it's now the kind of temperature outside, that gas pistol performance is going to be significantly affected by prolonged use.

    I'm listing "As New" because this hasn't been skirmished. I took it to a site as a backup and chronoed it, but didn't end up using it. Since then I've been playing less and less. Some minor rubbing marks present, but nothing more than you'd get from attaching it to a sling and moving about a bit etc. This is the metal version and I think it's a great balance between being lightweight and sturdy. I won't list all of the features, but it does have a quick change spring and I've used this to add a couple of FPS adjusters to bring it to a solid 1.05J when hop is set for 0.28's. If you apply more hop for heavier BB's that may go down, if you reduce hop for lighter it may go up. Either way, the QC spring allows you to easily find the right power for your requirements. Package Summary: Metal SSR4 - £290 Spare Mag - £15 QD Sling - £20 FPS Adjuster Rings - £5 Iron Sights (not pictured) - £20 Total = £350 (not including delivery etc) I can supply more photos or send a shooting video to serious potential buyers.

    4 x 7.4V T-Plug (Deans) 3000mAh Stick Li-Ion Batteries. I don't think I've even used these in a skirmish and they were purchased fairly recently. Excellent batteries but surplus to requirements. All in "As New" condition. Buyer is responsible for safe charging, usage and storage. Stated price includes PayPal fees and postage. Please PM any questions as I don't get notifications for anything asked on the listing.

    Talk about a head turner! This is in near box fresh condition, as it's not even been a wall-hanger but kept in a foam case in a cupboard. Unlike the TM version, this is full-metal and has a full travel slide too. In my testing it's also been more powerful, right up at the limit around 350fps on a 0.20g. As always FPS/joules on GBB's depends on temperature and gas etc. Also to note, this is not the weird CO2 full-auto version, but takes WE made green gas mags. Needless to say this is perhaps the heaviest pistol around, but definitely skirmishable in the right conditions. Only letting it go as I'm reducing my collection. Stated price includes PayPal fees and a tracked courier. Please PM any questions, as I don't get notifications of anything added to the listing.

    I haven't had one of their pistols, but I purchased a Glock 19 & Glock 17 mag made by them and neither would fit in my TM G19 Gen.3 or TM G17 Gen.4. The grooves weren't wide enough for the TM mag release. Weirdly the 17 mag fitted fine in my TM G17 Gen.3. Overall the quality of it was lower than TM or even WE. I would say the closest comparison would be Army Armament. Also, my understanding is that it's mostly the RIF's purchased from Asia that have trades and the ones with UK retailers, don't. I could of course be mistaken by that.

    15c is certainly getting on the cooler side for GBB's, especially if you're out all-day using it. Initially it sounds like it's just that bit too cold for the gas to bring the bolt back far enough to load a BB. The big drop in power also demonstrates it's suffering negative affects of the ambient temperature.
  9. Cr0-Magnon
    a possible culprit and easiest check would be the hop rubber and nub - ie make sure they're intact and fitted correctly.

    **Price now includes a black lightweight Guarder Mag** This one was put together with the aim of having a simple and realistic sidearm, combining the quality of Marui internals with realism of Guarder externals. I've not skirmished it but marks do occur, especially on the outer barrel just from racking the slide. Although in my opinion this just makes it look more like the real thing. For anyone who's held a real gun, you'll know they're often no-where near as pretty as a brand new out of the box Airsoft replica. Original slide, frame and outer barrel not included. Guarder parts included: CNC Aluminium Slide (Setup to take RS style sights) Steel Outer Barrel Fully Trademarked Nylon Fibre Frame (Euro version) 150% Recoil Spring Hammer Spring Other parts: CNC Copper Piston Head Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier. Please PM any questions, I usually respond quite quickly. I can usually post within two working days, if it looks like I'll be unable to fulfil this, I will update you accordingly. Please do not chase before then.

    I've been both solo and with others. The only real difference is having a bit of a chat before the game. There's no formation or even team tactics once you're out there, so you often lose sight of the people you've come with anyway.
  12. Cr0-Magnon
    You appear to be missing a barrel 🤔 Can you get pics of the inside of your slide and frame?
  13. Cr0-Magnon
    This is what I Loved about my TM MP7, it never even vented the smallest amount.
  14. Cr0-Magnon
    I might have missed it, but is this based on a TM Glock 17 Gen.3?
  15. Cr0-Magnon
    So you fell like a double-mug when they don't call it? 😄

    I know it's better to be "blind" than blinded, but I'm being quoted North of £250 for glazing my new prescription inserts......gahhh.

      Specsavers do my revision inserts for about £70, £250 sounds incredibly high.

    @Haru - I only accept shots to the centre of my plate carrier, anything else and I'm going to call you out for malicious cheating.
  18. Cr0-Magnon
    I think you're vastly over-estimating the accuracy of airsofters and their guns. I bring my crosshair somewhat over the often moving player and when I pull the trigger, a small plastic sphere weighing only around a quarter of a gram is pushed through a non-rifled barrel. This projectile hopefully makes contact with any part of my opponents body or equipment, sometimes I'm even evil enough to pull the trigger a couple of times on top, just to increase my chances.
  19. Cr0-Magnon
    I think these will be a bit more appealing when they release a full range of accessories (like a quick detach holster). Also would be cool to see a whole-host of aftermarket parts, akin to the AAP-01.

    For those who don't know, Detonator really are the gold standard for aftermarket slides. This is lightweight and has an excellent finish. Designed specifically for the Tokyo Marui Gen.4 Glock 17, which is a different design to the WE and Umarex, so this will not fit those or likely any other make and model of pistol. As with all parts, I cannot guarantee this will fit your RIF without modification and I cannot be held responsible for anything that goes wrong during installation. This was briefly fitted to one of my pistols (not skirmished), so has some minor marks but is in excellent overall condition. It has been stored in its box ever since. Unfortunately it appears to be missing part of the dummy extractor assembly, so you may want to look into sourcing or modifying a replacement. Stated price includes PayPal fees and tracked courier.

    .....No, that's not a spelling mistake and this wasn't Tanaka's attempt to skirt trademark infringement. This is a faithful replica of the rare Colt/S&W collaboration. Essentially a S&W K-Frame with 6" Colt Python barrel. This Airsoft version is made from a combination of high quality plastic, metal and of course rubber for the Hogue style grip. Pretty much box fresh as it's not been skirmished in the few months I've owned it from new. Some minor marks always possible though. Stated price includes PayPal fees and postage. Please PM me with any questions as I do not get notifications for anything asked on the listing.

    I'm not Googling it, but "Brocock" can't be a real airsoft brand...
  23. Cr0-Magnon
    Yeah, I wasn't quite surely what it was when I saw/heard the blank firer as it's not like the Marshals pre-warned anyone and it was just a regular open skirmish day. The Marshal had a word with the guy and I didn't hear it for the rest of the time I was there, but seems the answer to my question was "No...unless you're a regular" Seems us sensible lot will have to sit around in the "safe zone" with full eye and hearing protection.

    I can't remember the spring but with a tightbore barrel it was pretty spot-on 2.2J (circa 315fps with a 0.48g), the widebore dropped that to something like 1.5J. Luke's mentioned a few times that it's the longest ranged rifle he's ever built (although that may have changed by now). I regret selling it but he's since done me an MBR556 (cue the "not a DMR calibre!" crowd) which is nice and consistent at 1.85J on 0.36g's and much easier to shoulder. That's with the stock hop unit, Maple Leaf 70 rubber, black macaron nub and 455mm ZCl 6.02mm barrel.
  25. Cr0-Magnon
    Luke/Negative Airsoft built me a G&G GR25 DMR using a Maxx hop unit and 6.15mm widebore Orga barrel. It dropped the power significantly, but the range was seriously epic. This is airsoft though, so there's never going to be one definitive universal answer.
