  1. The price is fair for a TM gen 4. I think as the slide has been resprayed a buyer may as for some wiggle room but that’s just me wanting to save a tenner 😂 My AW drum mag will fit that 😂😂😂
  2. Nice Glock 17, it’s a Marui so will be great out of the box. But why have a blue front site and why respray the original Marui slide?
  3. Ooooooooh I’m excited and I haven’t even pre-ordered one lol I assume those people who ordered the MP5 presumably also ordered extra mags?
  4. Oh gosh yeah I remember they did a GBBR too. I never got to try the AEG version and I believe they still produce it? Circa £900 out of the box too.
  5. I had to google most of those 😂😂😂 In regards to the Escort MP5 I thought there were only two types, a Ford and those you pay by the hr 😂😂😂
  6. It’s taken me 3 months to loose one stone. Apparently the hole in my shorts became bigger over that time period for the stone to drop through it. But damn was it hard work doing it. Now I’m hell bent losing another as my plate carrier fits better. What more incentive does one need
  7. Like with many things in life sometimes one needs and additional shove to be better and stronger. The case in point is Steve Rodgers. Once he was given the super soldier serum he became Captain America! If there was any one TM that was designed in mind to have an upgrade path to Super Soldier stardom it’s the 417. It’s potential as a DMR is devastating.
  8. I second what Cyberlawer has said about the MWS. The immersion is right up there with the recoil, the bolt carrier group movement and of course the bolt stop (the latter two which you can get with some brands of AEG). And let’s not forget the lo-cap magazines (circa 32 rounds per mag). The bottom line is it’s such a fun replica to use. However, you will need to adapt your style of play in so far as you can kiss your auto days goodbye. With auto brings potential cool down of the mags as an example and of course the lo-cap limit of the mags.
  9. Another chap reviewing the AKM. He's got quite a few videos on his channel....
  10. At My site, Finmere, they will change game tactics if something isn’t working. It’s all try it and see. We will frequently give any critique to the organisers if something simply does not work and it helps to improve the games the following month.
  11. Component shop are one of the better places for lipos. Just make sure you know what you’re ordering and pay attention to the battery dimensions. Plus they can modify the connector of your choice for a small fee either 50p or £1 extra
  12. I haven’t bothered getting anything from the EU to be honest. Just can’t be bothered with all their faff. All my TM parts come from HK or Japan and are here within a few days with no fuss.
  13. I get both sides of the argument here and I understand why some sites just use fps and ask the player what BB weight they are using. One of my sites does this and then they just compare the fps speed with the bb weight. If you have 100 players checking in then the last thing you want is the chrono time to take forever. Our sport relies on honesty but let's face it you will get those players who will inevitably tell porkies coz they consider themselves entitled. At least I know I'm being honest and that's what matters.
  14. Fire Support had about 20 odd on preorder. They all went within 2 weeks if that. I was on the fence about whether I wanted another recoil. First world problems eh? 🤷🏻‍♂️
  15. Who did you place your order with?
  16. It’s the first breakdown material I’ve seen and it’s pretty detailed at that. I’ll use chrome later and translate it. good shout!! What’s interesting is the blowback mechanism is kinda similar to that of the SCAR which makes sense I guess. However by doing that, have Marui been forced to have different dimensions to the real thing? And more importantly how robust is that HK slap gonna be!! The electronics/mosfet will be a point of curiosity. Can you program anything etc? And that hop with all that Marui magic? How good is it? I’m sure it will be spot on but time will tell. All good stuff though
  17. Here’s a review of the break down of the MP5. They say a picture speaks a 1000 words. In this case that ain’t far from the truth 😂 https://blog.evolutor.net/2021/08/19/tokyomarui-next-generation-aeg-mp5a5-disassembly/?fbclid=IwAR3z6LNM4Cuj7SVZC42y68vJv9JbMFLuxvUmtG0iAA_kwyVuJxqSecTY4bI
  18. I hope it’s biodegradable 😂😂😂
  19. TM 416D, TM 416 Devgru, TM 416 Delta black and TM 50 shades of tan. Any of the above TM’s.
  20. Budget aside, the TM HK 417 was born to be a DMR. Stick in a longer tight bore barrel, change the hop rubber and change the spring and spring guide and voila, 450 FPS. Of course the auto fire must be disabled but that easy to do. Either modify the selector plate as per @Rogerborg above or a Gate Titan. It goes without saying the stock TM gears will go at some point and maybe the bushes too. Essentially it becomes a money pit. But hey you can pop a zit on the nose of a speed softer at 80m.
  21. I was gonna say exactly as you speedy in regard to this. There must be peeps on here who could knock up a 3D printed part?
  22. PMAGS 🙌🏼 The only question is will they be as good as the Marui mags?
  23. I’ve noticed one more thing with your setup. Is your magnifier in direct line of sight to your red dot? The magnifier seems a tad low? Are you getting a clear vision of the red dot through it and not getting any of the red dot’s housing? . And a good point made by our colleague above about the sling. Get a decent one.
  24. New member who hasn’t READ the rules. Tut Tut Tut 😂. Better get Mack’s involved just because of that 😂😂😂
