      Very kind of you bud , but unfortunately beer tokens are a bit scares at the mo (just bought a new gatt and ordered a shit load of webbing , buckles , Kydex and cordura to start making kit again) .👍

    Just make sure you don’t skimp on the eyepro, you don’t need to buy 120 pound Wileys or oakleys but 30-40 will get some decent options.
  7. GenuineGerman
    Hi Joe and welcome. boots look fine but as edcase has said you could probably find cheaper. Don’t forget decent eyepro as well

    Does no one want to swap a PSG1 haha. I wonder why oh I’m asking a lot for it. Maybe I should make it cheaper.

      Yeah I’m not desperate to offload to be honest but would like to reinvest it more toys. 

    3. SeniorSpaz87

      Several factors honestly. Most people arent going to want to pay 130quid over retail even if it has an added scope. This is even more true if its a GBB. Then the market for GBBs is generally smaller than that of AEGs, so your crowd of potential buyers is smaller. Next, GBBs as DMRs tend to be less accurate than their AEG counterparts, so people looking to field it are going to be turned off by that. This is compounded by only having one mag - people are going to need to buy more if they want to field it (and the mags arent cheap - an extra 50 quid a pop adds up fast). Any gun once used generally drops in value by a third, so at best you should expect to get about 675 by following only that rule ((860+165)*2/3)(though that can vary wildly based on availability, desire, etc.). A collector is just going to buy new, as they will want a perfect condition version, and brand new that gun plus the scope would only cost about 1020 quid. Id set it at 800 open to offers, and see what comes along, expecting to get between 650 and 800 for it. Theres no major issue leaving your starting price that high, but most people are going to ignore it with that high of a price tag, even if its just a fill-in.

      Great advice, I knew I was being a quite optimistic at that price. Will drop it and see what happens. Being honest I’m more hoping for a swap but we will see what happens.

    I’m thinking about just doing eastern block kit apart from a few exceptions

      Druid799

      Funnily enough I’m in a bit of an eastern block themed mood at the moment my self , but to avoid going Russian I use Ukrainian patches on my kit .👍

    2. GenuineGerman

      GenuineGerman

      Yeah might get rid of the AR’s get a Gorka and just do Eastern European stuff.

    Personally I can see both sides of the argument however like I have said on here before I have spoken to all my neighbours and let them know that if they ever see my with what looks like a firearm it’s a airsoft Rif but I also make sure they are out of site when I load the car up to transport them to site. Personally if the police did come round I would have no objections to them coming in and checking. I also think that teaching children that firearms are a tool and to treat them with respect/safety isn’t a bad thing. Again firearms aren’t a big problem in this country but like anything it’s about education and a balanced view then people have the toolset to make their own minds up. Kudos to @Johnyboy1976 for enjoying spending time with his kids and let’s face it I’ve seen a lot worse on the pad estate.

    Sadly when buying second or third hand it does rely on trust. I think we’ve all been burnt before and put it down as a lesson learnt. However reselling your mistake to someone else is jack af.
  13. GenuineGerman
    Patrolbase’s latest email. Apparently it’s a 50 quid saving haha i know it’s a typo but thought it was funny
  14. GenuineGerman
    I can honestly say after reading this thread since the beginning the cost saving isn’t worth the stress. Honestly some you guys have the patience of 20 saints.
  15. GenuineGerman

    Well I’ve just ordered some mags from KYAirsoft for the XM177 (currently on sale). I pray that it gets through ok without shipping issues. 

  16. GenuineGerman

    Great day at NPF, got totally annihilated however was fun. I have realised the PSG is not skirmishable so considering selling it. Any takers? Haha 😂

      Just not practical for a skirmish in the woods. Probably more suited to open ground and something a bit slower pace.

      @GenuineGerman I was at NPF yesterday as well! I was on Blue team though. To be fair the onus is totally on the marshalls to rebalance things. In the morning session we (instigated by myself and a regular) moved the blues back away from your spawn to centre field, from what we observed, only a handful of your guys actually tried to push back out.

      Was a good day though, if I'd have known there were forum members about I'd have come and said Hi!

    4. GenuineGerman

      GenuineGerman

      I will be going again in the next couple of weeks so can say hi then 🙂. The problem was that once people got trapped in the spawn they got demoralised and couldn’t be arsed. I think the marshalls should have reset and started again. Then I think it would have been ok.

    WE XM177 just arrived Just have to get some more mags and age it a bit

    Just picked up a G&G TR4-18 - Any one have any issue running 11.1 in this?

    1. Monkman

      Monkman

      I ran a Nuprol 11.1 1450mAh 30C battery in it for approx 2.5years without issues, then stripped the gears and cracked the gearbox.  Negative Airsoft redid the insides and now I run a 7.4 lipo in it for CQB mainly.  He says I can run a 11.1 lipo but to make sure it's around 15C nor more than that.  :)

    Having a bit of a dilemma. Got a skirmish booked on Sunday and want to take my PSG but I feel like it people may think I’m one of those people if I do take it. Not sure what to do.

      I very rarely have a problem.... most of the time it’s just cheaters! 🤬

      However my solution is simple, if people overstep the mark, go to the Marshal, cover yourself.... then open hunting season.... hopefully no one on your side is a problem, otherwise blue on blue! 😵

      Toxic site, toxic players, do exist.... thankfully more good, than bad!!!! 🤔

      Good reason for some pics as well! 😂👍

    Counselling really worked for me, struggled for a long time after I got out and found off loading really helped, although I always struggled thinking that my problems were small and irrelevant to others. But seeing a counsellor made me see that actually my issues were important not only to me but others. I would always say to anyone struggling with their mental health is to reach out as there is always help even if it’s on a forum full of jaded old boomers 😜

    THIS ADVERT IS 'UNCOMPLETED' - THIS MEANS THE ADVERTISER HASN'T BUMPED THIS LISTING, BUT IT COULD STILL BE WORTH CONTACTING THEM.

    • For sale or swap
    • Used

    Hi All, Have decided to see if anyone wants to buy this. Bought during lockdown so never been in the field however have probably put 100 bb's through it just playing about. Apart from that it has spent its time in my spare room. As you can see in the photos it is in great condition almost as new but a few marks on the fire selector. Apart from that mag is gas tight, 20 round capacity and comes in original box. Open to Swaps - not sure what i want however price does include Paypal fee and shipping using Parcelforce 48. Give me a message Cheers, GG
