Makes the gun looks much nicer I reckon.
I think I'll leave the trades on the slide alone, what do we reckon?

Xcortech Chrono and a Olight Valkyrie PL-2

Just the two I have at the moment

Finally a paid up member of the fine MWS club!
 
This beauty arrived today, and now the real fun begins, turning this CQBR into a URGI style 10.3" build!

My mk4 mondeo has just that feature - fecking turbo lag

It's quite obvious mate.
He's taking about psychotic weirdos who make up lies and bullshit on the internet.
 
Like people who lie about having the latest Marui pistol months before launch, for example...

yeah, i wasn't really trying to be depressing, just that i figured the thing i'm most proud of is being better at not doing things that i'm not proud of.
 
but yes i'm down with some more positivity!

Fuck that, sounds like something just waiting to go wrong, as in develop a fault, but also sounds pointless, borderline retarded lol .

i dunno, you gotta start somewhere, i'd be a hypocrite if i said i didn't do exactly the same (hell i double whammy'd it by buying a unicorn as a first gun), i've walked that walk of shame with a broken gat many times (even several times in one game)
 
pretty much everything i've learned has come mostly from fucking it up the first time and never letting a good gun sit for long without trying out some new tweak. hell the reason i joined this forum was a madcap "i'm gonna revolutionize airsoft" idea which unsurprisingly went nowhere.
 
hell i still do it, can't stop, it's an obsession.
 
 
i probably need help......
 
however, the one bit of advice i wish anyone, including past me, would take on board before starting the roller-coaster that is modding airsoft guns is this:
 
have a good backup before you start. and don't fuck with it
 
 

So true, I'm fed up seeing "getting a new/first gun, what upgrades should I do" threads, just use it FFS, as your likely to fook it up trying to throw money at it.
Some great budget guns out there, I'd rather buy two variants, instead of buying one & then spending as much again trying to make it something it's not, nor will it ever be lol.

Been saving a while for this bundle - back to work now so I could buy it all for €250 - that’s what I told the misses anyhow.
 
- Scorpion evo combo deal with extra battery and charger.
 
- Upgraded 120 spring and steel bearing guide 
 
- Xcortech compact tracer and silencer adapter
 
- Scorpion evo field hard case - I am a sucker for cases - it came with a canvas one but wanted this one
 
- Vortex Crossfire Red Dot
 
- TM micro pro sight for my FNX 45 and an Olight on the way to finish that off
 

Bargain that at £250... Can I have one too? lol

Well..   my wallet has taken yet another beating...
 
Bought myself an Osprey MTP plate carrier that also came with a couple of pouches, a missile flight case to carry my barrett and other large items, a "commando" jumper and a large ammo can.
 
Plan is to make foam cutout liners and then use the flight case to carry my barrett, as well as possibly other guns i currently have/ are planning on buying in the future... as well as fit some wheels to make it easier to maneuver  (its a heavy bastard even without anything in it)
 
I will also be repainting the ammo can and then making some dividers/trays so that i can amalgamate all my mags/grenades/bbs/gas etc into one container, instead of sorting through 3 or 4 .50 cal ammo cans every game day to find what i need for a particular loadout.
 
Everything was bought from The Battle Barge based in Leighton Buzzard. 




Oh, and i also bought an EMG john wick hi cappa and a couple of Vorsk mags plus a hard shell holster and MOLLE adapter from onlyairsoft in stevenage...  

golden rule of airsoft- be very wary of anything that's "likely an easy fix"
 
because the question then becomes if it's an easy fix then why doesn't the owner want to fix it?
 
in this case it looks likely to be poor air seal, something someone confident in tech work is probably going to be tinkering with on any gun they buy anyway (even brand new), however it could also be something more sinister, like stripped teeth or a mangled spring. also potentially worrying on a high speed build that looks like it's taken a fair few names.
 
on a side note this is also one of the stronger arguments for anyone wanting to learn tech work, takes a lot of headache and worry out of secondhand buying if you have the confidence to know that you can deal with any hidden problems.

this is the kind of review content i wish you got on youtube, i don't give a shit about wether or not the controls are ambidextrous i care wether or not the things been put together properly.
 
good job @gasman

Added a barrel extension with a Madbull OSS BPR2 over it for some long reach feeling. An LPVO might find its way on at some point.
 

 
or shorter.

No. Sellers can charge what they like; it is the buyer who needs to do their own due diligence and decide if they are willing to pay it.  Considering the poor quality of some adverts, especially photos of the item, I am amazed that some stuff still gets sold.  Many people are uninformed as they cannot be bothered to reseach (or even read this topic) and will buy anything, and a few are willing to pay a premium for less rigerous defence checking. 

I think it's safe to say it's a monster piss-take, made worse by the fact it's someone who should know better.
Well they are "new" after all 😏
