Cannonfodder

Green gas should be fine especially this time of year. The only time I'd be careful about it is in the middle of summer when temperatures are high. Using a more powerful gas will cause parts to wear quicker but, unlike the claims some make, it won't explode into a million pieces on the first trigger pull. I've found a toothbrush is useful for getting dirt and grease out of the little books and crannies

I remember when these were released and all the hype around them. Has it really been 15 years? Cheers, now I feel old

Well that's err, different. I can see it being useful for players but It'd be a nightmare for staff planning games around the numbers

My teacher at school said I'd never be any good at poetry due to my dyslexia. It shows how much he knew as I've made 2 vases and an ashtray this afternoon

Don't be surprised if your pistol becomes your primary in cqb as the smaller size over even a SMG means its easier to move through tight spaces I've owned a couple of WE gbb pistols but that's mainly down to being after a particular model nobody else makes rather than because they're WE. It's not that they're bad, but there's better out there As the seller states it's not the prettiest, but you cant go wrong with a TM and the Hi Cappa are a popular choice for a good reason

Insert Michael Jackson popcorn meme here

Good call. In my experience they last far longer than other similarly priced gloves

If you haven't already I highly recommend a pair of gloves, especially for CQB. Take a hit to the fingers or knuckles and you'll understand

Hello and welcome. As others have posted the Nuprol is a good choice for a starter gun, don't think that more expensive always means better performance. Also don't start thinking about "upgrades" till you've used it a few times. This way you'll have a better idea what you want from it Well done on avoiding the usual newbie mistake of buying a whole load of kit that you like the look of that gets used once before being consigned to the back of a cupboard.

I take it you don't have any indoor sites nearby? I've played in strong winds before and it can hilarious or bloody frustrating watching your shots fly away

His car is a piece of old crap too iirc 24 hours after liking this post I realise it's going to take me 3 hours to get to my next gameday thanks to the trains not running

You guys are being very forgiving with still giving out warnings. I'd be just deleting the offending ads

Into cryptocurrency too. Clearly not that bright then

It's always a shame when shops close down (minus a couple of exceptions where I'd probably smile a little if they went under). Unfortunately that's the nature of retail though, bricks and mortar shops need to be located where they'll get customers walking in and by their nature these sort of places will have higher overheads like rent and business rates which invariably will be passed on to the customer. Tbh I was always surprised at A2's old shop in Little Chalfont. A little village didn't exactly strike me as the best place for a shop in such a niche market

Cant count. Different numbers given for how long he was in

I saw one of his videos from Urban Assault a few years ago and the number of obvious hits he shrugged off and carried on playing was ridiculous I've seen jelly that wobbled less. I'm sure any ex squaddies would know how long they were in for https://www.whitespheretactical.co.uk/product/boneyard-tokyo-marui-mp7-gbb-tan/6342?cp=true&sa=true&sbp=true&q=false Alternatively you could spend £40 more and get a new one with a warranty that works from the same shop

Normal is overrated

Definitely taking the piss, as @Tacklepposted, UTG are a a low quality Chinese kit manufacturer. The seller is bullshiting. As for the whole site spying on visitors, this what happens when you click ok for cookies To me that cheating twat touching it should lower the price

Ah, that explains it. I didn't realise there's more than 1 site called Pheonix

Same here. A quick Google search says he does still play there Tbh even if he didn't I'd probably avoid it as from reading the reviews the owner comes across as a bit of a cunt who throws his toys around when criticised

Has that ever actually happened though? It could be argued that using words like toy can promote unsafe practices as it promotes the "its only a toy" mindset, leading to people being more likely to do something stupid

As others have posted, it's a very social hobby. In the 20 years I've been playing I've found airsofters to be one of the most welcoming groups around. Sure you get the occasional twat but they're often easily identified and avoided.

Yes I am and I will. The thing is that those who don't like this hobby aren't going to suddenly change their mind based on what we call our kit, so why bother trying to appease them as it won't change a thing

Speak for yourself. They're airsoft guns so I'm happy to shorten that to guns. If others don't like it and are upset by 3 letters then that's their problem.
