  1. Took advantage of the rare opportunity of discounts on TK and picked up some bits for the second PTW upper. Purely copy paste parts from my other builds, if it ain’t broke…
  2. PTW users (if there are any of you knocking about), what’s the general go to on a hop/barrel for a second upper? Have the stock one all set up for a 14.5” outer barrel, putting together an 11.5” upper and struggling to find anything on options. I see HAO have the full Orga setup, worth a look at all? I have a spare cylinder, so just have the inner barrel/hop left to tick off. Thanks in advance! (If you have links that’d be amazing)

  3. Happens from time to time, for the most part I'll only bite if its something that's hard to get hold of in this country (be that because it's no longer produced full stop, or just something you have to order from overseas). I have a list of stuff that I'm after and if it isn't on the list it doesn't get bought, unless I'm confident I could sell it on for what I paid should buyers remorse kick in. In the past I've definitely fallen into the 'that's a really good deal, and I don't want someone else to have it' trap. Very much the FOMO brand of shit willpower. Over time I've realised that the moment I'm consciously trying to justify a purchase to just leave it.

    Hi folks, As above looking for a MK18 9.5” RIS II rail, not overly bothered on colour. Brand wise Madbull/Marui would be ideal but I know there are a bunch of decent replicas from a variety of brands at this point. It’ll be going on a Marui NGRS, so please consider that in regard to fitment. Have cash waiting, shoot me a PM if you have one going spare! Cheers, Alex

  5. I'd argue the first thing to ensure is that you're holding your RIF straight. Not intended to sound condescending at all, just genuinely worth checking. Everything else listed are potential candidates, but it could be as simple as your RIF isn't being held plumb. I've seen it more times than I can count, and I've absolutely been guilty of it myself. Especially on a RIF I'm not familiar with/have put a different stock on to usual.
  6. It was decent, first longer form event I’ve been to for a fair while and it landed at the tail end of a hectic work week so I was shattered throughout. That aside it was well run and the attitude of players was in-keeping with what I’d be led to expect at GC events. As with anything airsoft I tend to land on the group of players attending is what will make or break it, fortunately this landed on the ‘make it’ side of the fence. Assuming I head to more I’ll definitely be booking the day before and day after off, lesson learned 😂.
  7. I ended up not being a huge fan of the red dot/magnifier combo, but I used one of these as the mag and had zero issues with the product itself. I had my red dot on a Unity Riser, so the mag was mounted in a Unity mag mount (the flip to centre was a big deal for me, albeit at a very high cost). Obviously mounts will end up being specific to what you like, but hopefully this is useful information nevertheless.

    As the title suggests, interested in picking an NGRS MP5 up. Preferably with some mid caps, outside of that I'm open to whatever you may have. Cheers, Alex

  9. Can confirm having done it, a combination of expensive and/or long wait times for work to be undertaken. Worth it mind... probably 🤷‍♂️.
  10. A few bits ready for GC, y’know that moment you buy something knowing you’ll never use again. Yeah, that. 😂
  11. Finally got this puppy back from having a touch of maintenance.
  12. Booked on for Gangsta City, first 'non-regular' skirmish day in forever. Apprehensively excited!

  13. Surely it's easier to just sling some additonal blocks under the 'feet' of it? 😂
  14. Very similar photos from entirely different games, kit is identical if memory serves correctly outside of the RMR moving slightly (it’s now completely gone, we’ll call that a failed experiment). Since adding the Trex arms dump pouch to my belt (have not been a fan of previous belt mounted options, but the addition of the thigh strap has been a big win) the TED on the plate carrier has fallen out of favour. Likely be swapping that back over the trusty mini dangler for the next few games having been getting a lot of mileage out of the one on my chest rig every time I use it. Also the first time I’ve worn a UBACS in about 8 years for no other reason than I’ve been too self conscious, suffice to say they’re very good at what they’re supposed to be good at.
  15. Once a pornstar, always a pornstar in my book 👀.
  16. Had a couple of interactions with the same person. Granted mine were more weird insistances of a price they'd be willing to pay/messaging me purely to say they thought what I was selling was overpriced... but they had zero interest in buying it. From memory the former was a Marui G34, and the latter some PTS P-Mags. Perhaps just a chancer, perhaps genuinely thinks they're some sort of second hand airsoft pricing gate keeper. Either way, best not to make any assumptions on how genuine their claims are. Ultimately, as I'm sure you knew before the creation of this thread, it's up to you as the seller as to who you are and are not comfortable selling to. Any legal elements aside, the decision as to whether you do or don't sell something to someone is entirely at your own discretion (and tends to be dictated purely by how much the money is wanted/needed in most cases).
  17. My hair was my pride and joy back then 😂. To be fair, still is... largely because I'm seemingly lucky to still have it at this point!
  18. First is certainly not the first time I ever attended, but it's the first photo I'm aware of according to Facebook it's from March 2009 from Urban Assault (RIP). Back when Multicam was a rarity, a mayo AR though... some things never change. And yes, I needed a haircut and black boots with Multicam will forever be a bad look. Classic Army M15 CQBR Flyye PC with some custom mag pouches and admin pouch Repro Cryes Oakley SI Gloves Magnum boots (I think) This ones from two weekends ago, not much to say. I don't tend to wear a huge amount of camo nowadays but the mayo ARs are still present and correct. Outside of the addition of the belt and a dangler not much has changed with how I run my kit.

  19. Last of the new bits, Spiritus SPUD pouch. Liked the look of them when first announced, initially for popping a 16oz Nalgene in but looks to be really versatile. Could definitely see it getting used for extra mags/speedloaders on longer game days. Certainly not a revolutionary pouch, but well executed as usual.
  20. Been a while since I’ve bought anything other than ammo, but here’s my last few purchases. I also picked up a Colt Canada castle nut for my L119A1 from LCS but that’s not a very exciting photo. Black Crye UBACS Holy Warrior RMR and canted RMR mount Swatcom Activ8 Neckband Headset (ordered some Sordin Supreme Pros and got these as a free upgrade, can’t complain)

  22. I get a squeaky bum around brass barrels purely down to how soft it is, so I tend to swap over to stainless most of the time. PDI 6.05 are usually my go to for a bolt action build. Largely down to availability I have one fo teh DaVinci ones from Empire Airsoft in mine (also 6.05), seemed entirely fine though truthfully I didn't use the RIF enough before selling it to tell you whether thought it was on par with a PDI.... looked suspiciously similar mind you.
  23. There was a period when I was obsessed with carry handles, then I realised it was actually FSPs that I was lusting over after all. Fuck me I’m weird.

  25. Knowing you as I believe you do I'd be sticking with the MP7 and taking a win as a win. As you mentioned earlier you like your short/smg RIFs, resist the temptation of the shiny new and just enjoy something you know you like. Realistically, outside of not looking goofy with a lump of optic on top of it, there isn't much the MWS can do that the MP7 can't. I'm sure you'll land on what you actually want to do once the time comes to pay for it, but I strongly suspect that'll be a momentary buzz we get when we buy hobby stuff, quickly followed by some buyers remorse when it arrives and is consequently immediately sent back.
