  1. Looks great. I don't have access to a lathe. Then again, I still have both arms, which I probably wouldn't if I had access to a lathe. I can't be trusted with power tools. Does it make much odds to battery space or is it much the same? Also, bold choice just jumping straight in there with the spring swap. Like it. Any word on the compatibility of existing AEG stocks? I have a B&T side folder I wouldn't mind having the option putting on.
  2. As soon as you mentioned old DV I was going to say it's one of the more hilariously dangerous places I've played because of the ability to do things like run straight into an empty swimming pool. Or how you weren't allowed to move the furniture because it had all been strategically placed to cover holes in the floor and other hazards. And then I read the bit where you injured yourself. Figures... I think I may have been at that WASP outing. I definitely recall running around with a comedically large moustache and possibly a beret.
  3. I thought it was a reasonable solution, but I say that from the slightly smug position of someone who still owns one of the Guarder MP5 QD suppressors. (I'm only smug until I find out it doesn't fit or something equally hilarious).
  4. I don't have Faceache, but the picture above is interesting. The picture from earlier in the other thread seemed to indicate they wouldn't (the locking tab looked a different size and shape). Any indication if they can fit a battery too, because the Marui handguard looks bigger and that's apparently a tight fit? The Surefire grip is such a classic look, although it does mean you can't run a suppressor at the same time. I am in two minds about running out to get a B&T one, or just doing the sensible thing of waiting for the inevitable aftermarket parts (or using a railed foregrip and just mounting a regular torch)...
  5. No, it's a weird one. Generally I only run Geoff's, but I have occasionally picked up a bottle of some generic Blasters or similar if I've run out on the day. Honestly no idea how long that's been in there. Although now I look at it I'm wondering if the bb at the bottom of the loader is a bit oversized too... I guess the answer to this is to shoot more ammo so it's not sitting around as long? Airsoft solutions to Airsoft problems.
  6. Yes, I have no idea how, or how long it's been in there. Reasons not to use Bios I guess...
  7. I learnt why my speed loader stopped working...
  8. My gun's accuracy increases on 11.1v. This makes *no* sense, but is absolutely true and 4 people saw it...

      Interesting to see if you ever figure this out!

      Back in the dim distant past when I changed from nimh And Tamiya to LiPo and Deans I noted then a very slight increase to FPS and range on my guns as did my team mates who changed over as well(4 of use did it around the same time) and general consensus was also that it could be down to the increase in speed of the piston in the chamber and the O ring creating a better seal .
      OR could also be a load of old testicles ? But hay it’s a win and any holes a goal ! ?

      So, the 11.1 did not have the same effect again. Guess we can put that down to coincidence.

       

      It did strip the piston though.

       

      So I rebuilt it.

       

      And then the stock snapped in half... (and the accuracy was still shit!).

       

      I'm thinking maybe I should stick to sniper rifles...

  9. My M249 gearbox has 9mm bushings. All the docs and sales pages say they're 8mm...

     

    Questioning sanity...

  10. These drops ins are meant to be quite good, but US based and you have the usual shipping, etc. - Malkoff Devices .
  11. Nice, look forward to seeing a review. I've been keeping an eye on them for a while, but can't justify dropping that kind of cash in the current circumstances (plus lack of a regular site). I'd been holding off earlier in part due to the receiver. New one looks better, but my suspicion is that dust cover won't close as is - none of the photos/videos I've seen show that. Looks a good tool for some sneaky work.
  12. Visited a new site today. Someone came up and said "15 years ago at Dragon Valley you shot me in the back of the head with an MP5".

     

    I feel there should be a statute of limitations on airsoft related injuries I've caused people...

      *Alleged* war crimes Jay, alleged.

       

      Also I seem to recall those photos have me in a suspicious beret and a large fake moustache, so it might not be quite the character reference I was hoping for...
