    This is good value even as you state it, willing to pay, again, for an experience that was a fair wack of cash! 
     
    @Groot I recognise that cs price structure, still too soon, but I have heard rumours....
     
    As to what I pay, well I accept that £25/£30 is fair for a days running around. 
    I think it would have to hit £40 walk-on for me to begin questioning those fees - but then I get to go only every quarter or so

    Proof of postage is worthless

    He will post you a brick. It will be weighed and tracked and then claim you are the fraudster.

    Leave all threats on the table until you either have your goods as you sent them or a cash replacement. 

    Paypal is often used against the seller in this type of situation.

    Groot got a reaction from Tommikka in TM MP7 - questions   
    Hello

    Before you waste any money on it at all be aware of what you have got and if it is something you are actually going to keep. I ran mine for a bit then sold it, it just wasn't good enough.

    The MP7 AEP is great if you want a very quiet, close up gun.. That is about it. ( Other guns like the Gas TM Mk23 do it better ) 

    What it does not do well, is rapid fire semi/auto ( put ... put .. put ) or handle power upgrades well. Both will end up with the AEP exploding and you having zero access to spare parts. 
     
    I personally would do what i did.

    Solder some wires and a dean connector onto the existing contacts and then a fake PEQ or similar to hold a 7.4v lipo. 
    You can get small batteries that fit into the existing area but are a chore to get in and out i found.  PEQ on an MP7 look boss anyway.
     
    Giving that it functions well. You will have a neat little gun that is excellent, if you do not want to be heard but aren't going into a heavy fight. ( Mk23 does it better )
    The power mentioned before is about 260-280 but range is ok. It just take an age to get there. 
     
    The GBB TM MP7 on the other hand

    I am going to generalise but since covid i have found every site i have been to a little lack luster.  
     
    Our local site.. The late the great Combat South ( pours drink ) closed. So we have tried lots of other sites and have not yet found one we would go back to regularly.

    We have had some fun, don't get me wrong. Sadly the effort most sites seem to be putting OR equally the lack of staff they seem to have these days seems fairly noticeable. 

    I am no Combat South fan boy ( Love you Russ ) . They had some games that didn't work and honestly most weekends were a rinse and repeat of tried and test scenarios.  But it was always delivered to a high standard, the marshal's were visible and engaged. They also provided a high quality lunch. (Which i do not understand why other sites who are now charging upwards of £25 a person, do not provide something so basic. Well not without an additional fee. Tight asses)

    I am hoping that as Covid fucks off, that competition for players returns and the the sites start upping their effort. 
     
    Or i'm just jaded and overly entitled....

    Or due to the great sites being lost to housing developers that the glory days of airsoft are dead.
     
    Or because today's airsofter seems to be weak, whiny and scared of being drilled full auto.

    Or its the speed softers fault.

    Groot reacted to C-Diddy in First day, underwhelmed. Is this what all airsoft events are like?   
    Every single time I go airsofting I miss Combat South 😫 The first woodland site I ever played and still the best, four years later. As you said @Grootextremely well run, engaged marshalls and generally a great bunch of players on a superb site.
    @Baptimus_Primeas many others have pointed out, everyone has bad days, no matter the site. The things you state that you want to get out of a skirmish are not unreasonable. Stick with it, play in a whatever way you want to as long as you find it fun, and don't worry too much about how other people are playing. You say you went with mates, so that's a great way to get your own little strike team going to achieve the objectives. 
    As long as you don't look back on the day and think you wasted your time, it's a decent airsoft day. If you look back and smile, laugh or feel a tingle in your funzone, it's been a great airsoft day.
    Now if you'll excuse me, I need to pour out a little liquor for Combat South. RIP 🙏
