      Well bunch of Jessie’s anyway so who cares ? 😉

      😂😂

  2. I have two of them, last time I took them out was to the department in Croft and I got them chrono’ed, well we tried too as one Chrono didn’t register but the other one was saying like <25fps on 0.12’s they was much amusement to all kinda hard to dual wield as the spinny fire selector was hard on the left thumb not to mention the 4 x pencil batteries per gun
  3. No Airsoft for me but my Doggo’s sure as Sh*t had a good day today....

  6. I’m wondering how “tough” will the new lockdown tiers will be post lockdown with the new “tougher” system planned for England - I wonder if it’s time to tell myself “that’s all she wrote with Airsoft till spring ‘21?”

      A good example of not having a fucking clue

      when announcing sporting restrictions...

       

      TENNIS - you stand at opposite ends of the court FFS

      (way over 2m apart)

       

      But professionals can play - Djokovic lost yesterday in London

      yet you peasants may not

       

      Open up airsoft, we already know what MED means

      it just means no meelee kills coz we can't get too close

      (and keep your distance from any leper team-mates)

      I think I've come to point where I've largely accepted it'll be that sort of time till I get to play next, at the earliest. Granted that's partly down to being up North wheere things seem to be consistently worse 'tier' wise, and also because a majority of the sites up here seem to be indoor CQB (truth be told, unless there are a bunch of hidden ones I'm not aware of, choices up here are pretty slim full stop).

      Just trying to figure out what to do kit wise. I've got a decent amount of money tied up in arisoft kit... some of which I picked up recently as last week. But I am currently contemplating selling all of my RIFs bar 1 'primary' and a pistol just until we get a clearer picture of the overall landscape. It's a weird time, and as much as I love the hobby there have certainly been some point across this year where I've contemplated just selling up and moving on full stop. Decisions, decisions.

      No, it'll have to come back outdoors from 2nd December or many airsoft sites/businesses will cease to exist.  CQB in tier 3 areas may be hit harder, especially if you consider high ground rents for the indoor sites, nevermind all the other overheads.

       

      They can't/won't keep bars and pubs shut, so the airsoft industry won't be fobbed off without a legal challenge, in my view.

  7. My Latest order came in 3 days early and in amongst it was some Red BB’s so I couldn’t resist popping a few out on the AAP-01’s Fun Switch - much to the annoyance of my misses :D

    1. Steveocee

      Steveocee

      Thats amazing! Dept and ProjectX ain't goign to know what's hit it lol. Defo need to get yourself a HPA setup with Glock>M4 mag conversion for some primary AAP memes

  8. isnt the point of "Black Friday" to get a deal not to pay through the nose ???? /shameful
  9. Mmmm 2 hours to go and will Boris lock us down ???

    1. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      if he does then he is a bigger fucking idiot than I thought possible

       

      lock everything down, so NOBODY goes out

      (except to shop & key workers etc...)

      nurseries, schools, universities still open, but kids mixing with a 1,000 others won't spread & bring back the virus ???

       

      if NOBODY goes to the pub, eat out etc...

      then wtf is the point of track n trace

      no notifications = no need to get tested

      nobody testing - cases drop drastically

      hooray - it has all been a success

       

      until next time

       

      The Lurgy Lockdown - 3rd/4th wave etc...

       

      COVID-19 doesn't really kill you as such

      instead it is mostly PNEUMONIA caused by influenza, cold/rhino-virus and now COVID-19

      You get an infection/inflamation in your lungs as they fill up with fluid/puss - and that is what causes most of the deaths - pneumonia

       

      But write down COVID-19

       

      Did you know that the When the BBC said COVID-19 is THREE times more deadly than the flu - they used a graph that displayed a higher death rate in 1992~2000 for influenza

      So they quickly pulled it and replaced it with one for just 2020

       

      Now there was 2 x 8 year periods where in 1975~1983 it reached 63,000 deaths pa for influenza/pneumonia

      & also 60,000 pa for 1992~2000

      The last serious outbreak lead to the influenza vaccine programe being rolled out after 2000

       

      What they are doing is comparing influenza, which we have had started to develop vaccines since 1930, a virus we have a range of vaccines for various strains of flu - comparing it to a new virus we don't have a vaccine for

       

      So comparing the flu TODAY where 14m get the vaccine, to COVID-19 with NO VACCINE is like comparing apples to oranges

       

      Plus in 1992~2000 the UK had a much lower population so that 60k would equate to 70,000 deaths today

       

      But here is the rub...

       

      Does ANYBODY remember the lockdown, masks & crazy wash wash washing your hands during those 16 years in 1975~1983 & also 1992~2000

       

      coz I fucking don't remember any of it at all

      (was on another device earlier but here's some pics)

       

      1) original graph BBC quickly pulled showing outbreak in 90's

      (ooops quick change it)

      2) the one they quickly replaced it with showing just 2020

      3) google showing both were used

      4) history of large flu/pneumonia pandemic in 1992~2000

      (when the flu vaccine then was rolled out in 2000 onwards)

      5) the pandemic in 1975~1983

      and for reference the Spanish Flu in 1918

      Point being when we had a large pandemic twice for 8 years during 75~83 & 92~2000...

      Does anybody remember masks & lock downs back then

      coz I bloody don't

      2nd of December it is then .........

  10. @Zarrin I thought Mando was set after the “new hope” in fact after “return” since they was talking about after the 2nd Death Star had blown up, so I wonder who killed who/what created the Dino bones you saw in new hope ?
  11. Decided to slap my tracer on my AAP-01 and turn on the “Fun Switch”

    sorry for wobbly piccie couldn’t see jack till I started to fire

      Hi Mik 

      Do you mean the Full size render.mov? Cause that failed to download.

      🤔

  12. WOW!!  Come Friday 00:01 the whole of Nottinghamshire is in Tier3 Lockdown - unlucky Notts ‘Softers :( 

    1. Shamal

      Shamal

      Does that apply to outside games?

    2. MiK

      MiK

      tier 3 has these (amomgst others)

      You can meet up in groups of up to six people in parks, beaches, countryside or forests

      You are advised not to travel into or out of tier three areas, other than for work, education, youth services or caring responsibilities

      Nottingham (shire) is also having a 9pm alcohol rule too

      So it’s not looking good for anyone in Nottinghamshire

      Shamal

      YOU ARE RIGHT. 

      IT'S BLOODY DAMN NEAR SILENT!

      Oops sorry 

       

  14. Skirmshop UK has got Silverback MK23 Suppressors back in stock so they have just gained 29 of my finest Great British Pounds & 10 of my Shiniest pennies
  15. So Mr stupidboi stood on his MK23 silencer with his hoofs of doom - a replacement is needed I see the silverback one is sold out everywhere - I know this question might offend some but is the “N” one any good ? Or anyone offer up a half decent replacement??

      @Hatchet function over form - you know the make of said Stubby ?

      I'm afraid not. It was just some generic plastic one, probably pick one up for £15-£20. The beauty of the adapter is that you can just select whatever takes your fancy/is available. You can also take a slightly different route as Lee's Precision does a threaded 14mm barrel, but it's about £40, which is a relatively expensive way of achieving the same result.

  16. @Cr0-Magnon it’s all black and I’m a little freaky/ocd over having manuals for stuff
  17. AAP-01 arrived early doors - seems to fire well but haven’t had much time to mess about with - Yes the manual is in “French” - any translators about ^^
  18. I bought a AAP-01 for 75£ from PB this evening (soon as I got the email really) - coming Friday /edit just looked on PB for optional extras but the guns all sold out in all colour options
  19. Part one of the outdoor mask build well underway !

    Converting a ski mask that my spectacles fit under - mesh conversion done :)

    now waiting on the “goo” to arrive ;/

      Looks really nice.

       

      Why mesh though, versus putting the time into a fan conversion?

    2. MiK

      For sniper mode - I already have a gung-ho/CQB fan mode one :)

      Bah ! City won 0-3 bye bye fifty quid :(

  21. What happened to my AFUK badge ?? :(

  22. Yes I am in the middle of making something - in a over complicated way probably 🤪 (will post when I’m done but I got side tracked with two recent deliveries Scope images straight out of the box and nothing set - first is from iPhone at normal and down the scope at x3 mag - too much hand shake at x3 even worse at x9 so didn’t bother after a few failed attempts, chimney is about 150 metres away (guess-ti-mate)
  23. Ordered mine last week - arrived this morning verrrry nice indeed
