I know I've put on weight this lock-down ... But I seems to be preparing to punish myself by doing 2 consecutive days of Airsoft with an even heavier load out than pre-lock-down/tier 4 ... Full Osprey, w/ pauldrons, collar ... A weighty GBBR, vest mounted Sig P226R, 6 AR mags, 4 pistol mags, and enough Pyro to attract a CSAR extraction 🤣🤣🤣

I've booked myself into Special Ops MK for the 3rd & 4th April along with a few others on my team ... 19 days & counting!!

British Army surplus gear is all IRR treated, and cheap a chips for Grade 1 used... Just picked up a really good quality Osprey Plate carrier for £25 sans pouches, and the pouches are only £4\5 quid each... BDU's normally cost about £35 for upper and lower, can't go wrong really If you want to pay more, check out UK Tactical or Military 1st

Special Ops Milton Keynes is taking bookings for 3rd & 4th of April, then fortnightly thereafter RIFT Airsoft are also preparing to take bookings for the 3rd & 4th of April

I ordered them from Taginn Baltic based in Latvia

So it turns out you can't trust the shipping costs in Europe any more, guy came back to me and wanted another €40 on top of the €13 p&p already paid... Waiting for a refund on the whole order 😒

Haha yeah, I had a trip to A&E after the end of the day... Considering it happened in the first hour though 😉 I buy Mil-X direct from Third Light/Enola Gaye UK in Reading they let me open an account with my UKARA, my job takes me to High Wycombe pretty regular so I pop down to pick them up to save postage

@Shamal This is what happened first time I used a flash 3... Lucky I was wearing gloves at the time... Normally I just use smokes, but I decided to take over the role of teacher on my team. I went to throw the grenade after pulling the pin and found where I wanted to throw it block, so I moved to the next option and *BANG* foot of flame shot down my arm 🤣🤣 @Spartan09 Their flash grenades are only a couple of quid more expensive than the ones from my local site, and considering I favour EG Mil-X smoke grenades at £25 each, £7 a pop seem reasonable 😅🤣 I placed an order, will review once received!

Hi all; Does anyone have any experience buying pyro from Taginn? I'm looking to buy some FSG6, as I'm apparently a danger to myself when using EG Flash 3.0's ... Cheers!

I was speaking to the owner of my local site in Milton Keynes last night and he is hopeful to have games up and running that weekend... Pending confirmation that airsoft is included from dotGov "guidance"

You think that idiot has an actual coherent plan!? 😱

I've got not experience of that, although if you wrap it too tight it's rack the slide as you put it in 😅

Sorry to be the one fella, but that is still illegal, Baofengs not BF-88x transmit at 1 or 5 watts, the legal limit on PMR is 0.5 watts... Although the chances of getting collared are infinitesimal... What you will end up doing is jamming the frequency for anyone else tryingg to use 446MHz because of your higher output

Baofeng BF-888 or Baofeng BF-88e are both UK legal PMR radios with pre-programmed channels. I've found them to be quite congested at some sights, and range is about 1/2km in dense woodlandi Ended up switching to licenced UV-5Rs after 6 months

Personally, I use either a Sig P226R or Glock 17 as a sidearm on a Warrier Assault Systems battle belt set up (left-handed because I'm awkward... And I've never actually used it, but largely play woodland sites as not many decent CQB sites near me I use the polymer WAS Pistol Fast-Mag holders, only pistol mag holder that I HAVEN'T lost a pistol mag from... Couple of guys on my team run drop leg holsters, and I can draw faster from a belt that is configured properly (pistol at 10(L)/2(R) o'clock depending on (L) eft or (R)ight handed) and some repetition drilling to get used to the set up

Look up an app called Zello, it acts as a PTT app over 4G, you create a channel, invite other users, you can pw protect channel I've dabbled with it, looking at options, but most peopledon't want to have their mobiles on the field as it's too easy to accumulate screen damage

Personally, I have a licence that covers my entire team, I know there are individual options out there that are cheaper, I pay £70 a year for my licence

So I've finally finished my L119A2 build Based off a TM M4 CQBR GBB, full angry gun L119A2 conversion kit (except lower receiver), I'm into this puppy for over £1600 at this point...

According to the blurb ... And I' can't vouch for this since when I tried to by one, the length I needed was OoS ... The air channel along the bottom of the barrel provides additional and consistent back spin on the BB for the entire length of the barrel, rather than backspin just being applied at the hop-up, they say it provides better range and accuracy Would be good to know if it indeed acts as expected/sold

I've lost a couple of close mates who served, more to PTSD than combat, and I absolutely respect the commitment, service, and sacrifice
