  1. Out of context, it sounds pretty unsportsmanlike, but the speed soft joke has been fairly consistent through this thread
  2. I was thinking that I’d need the full 350rds of the drum. Given that I won’t be calling hits and need to overshoot rentals, it’ll be a long time between going back to the safe zone to refill mags git gud
  3. Sometimes, I think I have to make a mistake before I can understand why to approach an issue from a different direction. The drum mag is cool and it definitely appeals to the part of me that likes stupid chunky things BUT now I totally understand why the M4 adaptors are popular. The drum is noisy, hell it’s basically a high cap mag, and it’s heavy which makes the benefit in cqb questionable, as you’ve pointed out. Between the advice here and from Kyle at HCH, I’ll pick up a primary M4 adaptor when he starts to stock them. Until then, I’m going to have a lot of fun and a lot of funny looks with this. Quick question for those still here, how do you carry a tank and not knock yourself the fuck out? I’ve put it in a 48ci bottle pouch and it’s as floppy as your grandads ball sack
  4. Had some teething issues with one of my grips not liking the AW magazine, but now I’ve got four very snappy Capas running. Must have fired 600 shots earlier testing everything out, maybe more. Definitely cleared 1 1/2 drums and a fair bit of dry firing. Need to bust out the hand pump again at some point over the weekend. At least I’ll be fitter come game day!
  5. You know what they say; "One step forward, two steps back"
  6. I’m going to have to do some weights. This thing is pretty heavy now...
  7. Reg, line, tank, pump and drum mag are en route! Fingers crossed for delivery before the Bank Holiday!
  8. Kyle’s restock isn’t going to last long... He might have railed 5.1 frames on the April order. It’d be rude not to have one Also, did exactly the same. Brand spanking 4.3 for the Battlecat. The slide etc I had set aside was a bit tatty for a Gucci build
  9. I keep pestering the poor bloke about them. Last he said was AM are having an annual audit and there’d be no updates at all until April. He was pretty definite about them not having shipped yet though
  10. At least they’re moving now! I wonder when the next tidbit of news will be?
  11. Just called the guys at High Pressure, the hand pump is filtered but its recommended to remove the filter every now and again and dry it out. So I can go full Hot Fuzz. What would I need to be able to fire two guns at once, while jumping through the air? Would I need a specific regulator for two lines? (Can’t wait for the Battlecat 4.3 to launch)
  12. With all the information I've absorbed recently, fart-arsing about with GBB's; it makes perfect sense. Gas is such an inconsistent propellant given nominal UK temperatures. I'm still happy that I built the lightweight mags and ill still make sure that I've always got some 2.0 and 3.0 in the garage but clean, free and consistent is pretty appealing at the moment! Next, I discover how much of a ball ache a hand pump is... I've got a dive centre nearby, but they're closed for obvious reasons so its a case of want air? must pump. Other quick question, with this being the final precipice before people start calling me a speedsofter. Whats the etiquette? Do I have to call everyone a cheater and shout at all marshalls? Do you yell at the marshalls in between games? How do you burn a patch?
  13. Kyle has echoed your sentiments @Steveoceeso I've changed the initial order to a AW drum. This way I can look myself in the eye in the mirror. Just keeping my fingers crossed that all my magwells fit with it! (I'll probably get a primary adapter down the line) Thread has officially gone full circle now. Started off trying to make the SSP1 "less shameful" ends with me doing a Ghostbusters impression with a drum-mag on a pistol. Even my ex-paintball airsoft buddy/coworker is shaking his head
  14. I fear it's too late for me. Next up is a Dye mask and some of this camo
  15. I’m at a bit of a crossroads. I’ve ordered a tapp M4 adaptor but might change it to a AW drum instead. I just don’t know if I can be the guy running M4 mags in a pistol
  16. I’m not sure if I can take myself seriously any more. I’ve just clicked go on some stuff to join the ranks of Sodastream Ghostbusters. Using an entire can of Red Gas testing fitment and behaviour of one of my Hi-Capas convinced me so put a few quid into HPA.
  17. I’m never going to be able to unsee the Yule log chocolate icing effect now!
  18. Friend of mine who’s a jeweller told me off for not wearing the watch he sold me. “There’s no point in owning it if you’re not going to use it” She’ll get muddy, yup, but then I get to clean the dirty girl up
  19. Advanced frame arrived yesterday for this beastie. I think she’s a looker, but I’m a sucker for cats
  20. He's got a black 2011 one in that order with my name on it. Probably for my own sake, he didn't get any gold
  21. Scuppered. Not for the first time is something showing on Bunnyworkshop’s website not available. Wasn’t to be
  22. My “be a total tosser” response was itching after finishing a nice, restrained M14 build so I’ve gone and bought a Gold Airsoft Masterpiece Hi-Capa frame
  23. Dusted off the N64 the other night and my wife OBLITERATED me at MarioKart She wasn't so happy when it was proximity mines in Temple
  24. Fresh from Mark at FMJUK, here’s my crack at building a DMR Semi only, chronos in at 430-435 with 0.2’s. Started life as a two-tone Cyma that needed some tlc. Fresh spring, new hop unit+barrel, changed the motor to a higher torque Infinity and rewired it for standard Gate-style mosfets. Picked up a wooden stock from Airsofttiger. Sanded, stained and finished etc. Sanded off seam lines, got some slightly unusual (but real-steel accurate) Winchester trades cut and sent it off for a coat of Cerakote E110 Midnight.
  25. There’s hard earned, real-world experience that’s being given out. You seem to be choosing to ignore it. This is a subject that cyclically is thrown-up on the forum and each time the objective fact is that a heavy pellet and a decent rubber contributed to greater effective range far more than a tighter bore or longer barrel. I feel like we’re only moments away from sorbo pads and AOE
