  1. I get what your saying and I don’t disagree. I think like you have said it’s about the control the government want. I’m Germany we have the CDU/CSU which are the conservatives effectively and the SPD which are labour although most of this is true for the past. I think most parties now sell you the same policies but in a different guise
  2. I’m sure China is run by the Communist Party
  3. I like to think I’m not some survivalist gun nut but I do see like you have said society turning against individuality. I can see what you mean how someone people would read that and assume that I’m so kind of lunatic however I do believe in the rule of law and policing by consent. Without going into it too deeply I do feel however society in general is being dumbed down by reality tv, social media etc. If you have an opinion that doesn’t fit you can be destroyed in the court of public opinion before the truth comes out and by then it’s too late. I think the film metropolis is a great movie well ahead of its time and to me shows what could happen potentially but if I say things like that and I get called a gun nut lunatic then it plays into the narrative today that unless you conform you must be dangerous. Rather than engaging in conversation to find out why people are worried and concerned we just shut them down these days and put a label on them. Im not suggesting that we allow hate speech, racism, homophobia etc as we all know this is abhorrent but a different opinion is just that different. Sometimes we are wrong sometimes we are right above all we are all humans and have a right to be ourselves. With exceptions the majority of people just want to get on with their lives do what they enjoy and not hurt anyone. However I don’t want to be another working bee enabling someone else to ban things I enjoy that don’t hurt people for a perceived threat that probably won’t happen. People sadly as always remember the bad things that happen but I would argue there are far more good things that happen everyday than bad, that is the real fault of humankind.
  4. I think this a really good point and would help put the sport in a very positive light.
  5. Completely agree, until we are all unquestioning drones they will ban everything that shows individuality
  6. We use UPS at work and I had a call with out account manager yesterday. Apparently a lot of the delays have been due to resourcing mainly at East Midlands. I was told they have over 150 people off with Covid and self isolating just in the Midlands area from my understanding. We are currently experiencing 2 weeks shipping delays into Europe and the same coming back in the UK
  7. I would say if the seller has been shy around the truth with painting what else has he not told the buyer? Firstly is a used KWA Vector GBBR worth that money, for me yes - its discontinued so you won't find one in new condition unless you pay big bucks i reckon. So you are paying £800 quid for a used item the seller has listed some issues but missed of something that could potentially make a difference to the price. What else has the seller not told the buyer? I reckon the majority of people buy of here on good faith and 99% of the time it works out as we are all honest however if you were the person who had bought this in goof faith only to discover it had been repainted poorly who you not question to overall honesty of the seller. I must however say as @AlphaBearsays do you due diligence if its too good to be true it probably is.
  8. That attitude might work when you buy a pos car from a dodgy car salesperson but for what this is I would feel like I was lied to as a buyer. It’s fairly easy to tell if a gun has been repainted especially if it’s done poorly and should be mentioned regardless as mentioned by other the buyer should return and there money back
  9. I hope you do sell it, i'd love to have but would need to save up for the next 6 months haha
  10. At the end of the day something is only worth what someone wants to pay for it. If someone out there wants to drop 800 notes on it more power to them. And if they think it’s too expensive well then that’s ok as well.
  11. Racal Frontier or Peltor Comtac? If budget weren’t an issue of course. 

    1. DestrO

      DestrO

      comtacs and sordins are the top two, either of those id say

  12. Now this has to be dreaming haha https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174246693592
  13. I wish I had pockets that deep. Nice bit of kit but I suspect I would be living with it in the car.
  14. https://prefired.co.uk/ads/src-limited-edition-tt-33-gbb-pistol/ not so much a dreamer just I’m tempted
  15. You are buying membership to the party as well comrade
  16. I use my re-enactment membership and PLI to buy RIF's
  17. https://prefired.co.uk/ads/ghk-m4-see-video/ Maybe it’s because I’m tight but £350 without a mag
  18. oh controversial, I rate Timothy Dalton quite highly
  19. Roughly translated mean I can make a mug of myself
  20. That’s just the rif’s and the buyer will have to cover the fees. We have a saying in German, verarschen kann ich mich selber.
  21. Just looking what’s cheap and not just private sellers over inflating prices.
