  1. My other suggestions (based on the picture, so if you have it already done these things, you can ignore me ?) would be to get a few more mags for the AEG or get a high cap one that you can quickly refill in a game, I normally go through my two mid caps and resort to using my high cap (as you can normally just tip your bbs in them quickly). It can be a bit of a ballache to reload your midcaps in the middle of a game with the type of speedloader you are showing. I highly recommend footware with ankle support so you dont break a bone when you foot goes down a ditch or rabbit hole. ? You might find that mask fogs up too, so try and pre-treat it prior to the game with some cat crap (yes, a real thing haha) or some anti-fog solution/wipes, you'll find plenty of opinions on glasses, goggles, masks and anti-fog solutions on here. Ultimately though, as @EDcase says, if you are having fun, you are doing it right, so welcome to the world of airsoft, hope you enjoy it!
  2. Unfortunately been quiet busy with the new house etc, plus winter is just depressing! Nearly over the finishing line, so plan on getting over to Ace on 24th April!
  3. Depending on where you are you are based in "Staffs", another site for you to try out could be Ace Airsoft . I normally go with a few mates and usually see another forum member ( @strykerles ) there. 100% agree with this, I was a bit unsure when starting and did wonder how "clique(y)" people were at Airsoft, but the people I've met are very welcoming and you find yourself upholding this attitude when you see new guys joining. Don't forget, we are adults running around the woods with toy guns ?
  4. I used them too (but for glasses not goggles), would rate them 100% I did do a loose review on them a while ago if you are interested @JoeH
  5. Currently isolating as I've tested positive for the dreaded covid and decided to go through some of my cam footage of the very first time I played airsoft and it picked up a very glorious war cry....

    Sure you can mention me, buddy. I'm 6ft 2, average build floating towards the dad bod, and I don't know if it's cuz I've hit mid 30s but I've noticed I've started to sweat more than a glassblowers arse while doing exercise! I've kept off the sugar loaded fizzy drinks, hence why the coke zero I took the following month did naff all! Would recommend the raspberry lucozade sport over the orange tho ??

    One of the things I found during my first few games is that I was finishing the day with a headache, although I was packing litres of water away during the day and having lunch. Unfortunately water doesn't replace the electrolytes you use during the game and lose through sweating. I take a 4 pack of lucozade sport now, as they were my go to drink when I used to play football, finish the day headache free now!
  12. Has anyone tried messaging @proffrink directly?
  13. Repping the forum patch, last Sunday ??Screenshot_20210918_172203_com.android.gallery3d_edit_186267360870015.thumb.jpg.7d892ab74e76f1eda40bcaf23e320d28.jpg

      Looks like you'll all be getting your badges after all! ?

  14. My first pew pew! Been playing with it in the garden and consistently doing 335fps on the chrono, hopefully it being an Ares I've got one of the rare ones that work ? You really do fall down a rabbit hole after buying your first gun...... batteries, chargers, sights, mags.... My bank looking at me like.... Good news is that I will get to skirmish it on the 12th Sept.
  15. Finally settled on a gun, although not the one I first set my eye on. 

     

    I had my heart set on the specna arms edge E-11 but been out of stock for weeks with no foreseeable restock before my next game.

     

    So went with the last Ares Amoeba AM-008 patrol base had in stock, and although I was looking to spend a bit more, at £145, I can't complain, as I plan of this being the one I tinker with when I buy more ?

     

    Will be breaking it in at @Ace Airsoft War Games on the 12th September, so to the usual guys, see ya there ?

      Ares is one of the "send to Luke at Negative Airsoft to fix" brands, in my mind.  Hopefully that won't apply to your example. 

    2. Brophy

      Brophy

      Maybe should have got a p90 @Rogerborg..... ?

       

      Nah joking aside, I do plan on this being the one I piss about with and getting inside of, just one of my querks of being engineer ?

       

      Don't worry, I'm sure you'll see a post from me when I get a bit stuck. 

    3. Shamal

      Good choice?

      I have the ameoba 013 and never had a problem with it. 

      Regards
