Hello

Someone got done over and I would love to be able to help prevent this from happening again

Was this your DMR? If so, who screwed you?
 
 

Always use buyer protection.
Paypal doesn't care about what it is as long as it is a legit purchase and not illegal.
I've had to claim twice. Once as the seller and once as the buyer for a RIF and both times it was clear what the sale was regarding and they sided with me because one was fraud and the other was a dick who didn't understand that second hand airsoft guns can go wrong and that no warranty is provided.
Airsoft rifs are fully legal in the UK and as such you really should have no issue with paypal siding on the side of right or wrong in a transaction.

"In thy mercy"

"In thy mercy"

Once the fuse is lit Mr Grenade is no longer your friend!

I have blown myself up more than once …… not necessarily in a game environment 
 
I concur that the primary thought whilst pyro is hissing in your hand is to remove it from your proximity ….. and preferably before it stops hissing 

OP. I think what we have here is simple self preservation. 

Now unlike 90% of airsofters.
I have expensive ear pro and yet I would still probably want a pyrotechnical as far away from me as possible once lit. 

Throwing it towards the enemy, as the life drains from your body and you head towards that big old light in the sky. Is probably a very natural reaction.

Mine is stock except for an upgraded Mapleleaf bucking and nub. 
Lovely gun on a 11.1 Lipo.

I'm hoping this new rule set catches on and spreads to other sites. You know, like banning KickingMustang 

Perhaps it just sounds good and shows this weapon has received a level of love not usually bestowed upon a toy. Thus greatly increasing its worth.
 
How many for sale adds say "recently serviced" . Which lets be honest is 90% bullshit and completely impossible to prove it wasn't.

Myself and @quango2k are one of the few owners of Systemas that realise that airsoft is a game.

Tbh that is a REALLY bad photo of me too that a blur would be a massive improvement.

What he said. 
 
They just feel different. If you tried one for the day, everything else seems like junk.
 
Then, when they go wrong, you want to burn them and hate them with every part of your being.
 
I sold my recoils, they just feel cheap and both of them broke ( they were "modified") . The ptw is 14 years old and pretty sure it's never been serviced...it will break now I said this.

PTW FANBOI ASSEMBLE!!


 

 
It is currently with Tackleberry sorting out a small jamming issue. Then it will be back as my main blaster!

Significantly better than an NGRS and an MWS. Of which i have owned both and sold on. 
 

Now... not as big a margin but it still feels different and better.
The dimensions of the grip are skinner too, which feels nice. 
The sound is again different and so good. 
Just owning one makes your penis 4" longer. 

All in all, still the best there is.

Bullshit called, that can't be a PTW - your face isn't blurred.
