  1. I am guessing (hoping) this means something different where you are from. 😶
  2. After years of "No, don't like those trousers, nah, notthat rig" etc, I am finally mostly happy with my standard loadout for my DMR.
  3. I use this antenna Radtel Foldable Tactical Antenna 18 Inch with SMA-Female Connector, Dual Band UHF/VHF (134-176/400-520Mhz) Compatible with Baofeng UV-5R UV-9R (or Plus) GT-3TP 88E Kenwood Ham Radios https://amzn.eu/d/ehFUra0 This adapter allows you to use standard two pin peripherals 943 K-head Audio Cable Adapter,2Pin Cable Adapter for Baofeng BF-9700 A-58 UV-XR UV-5S GT-3WP UV-9R Plus,K interface 2Pin UV-5R headphone https://amzn.eu/d/dXvhhUp And I have two of these PTTs, one for each of my rigs K Head PTT Cable, Military Adapter TK-208 TK-220 Mobile Noise Reduce Headsets TCI Round Waterproof PTT for 2 pin BAOFENG Kenwood Puxing 2-Way Radio, TYT Qusheng https://amzn.eu/d/iEeOZbh
  4. No further explanation necessary. 120 on site for Red Alert yesterday. Great day, fun game modes, my DMR rocked as always. A friend broke her ankle when she took a tumble down a hill, unfortunately, but she's taking it in good spirit. Her biggest concern is that she won't be able to attend the battlesim this month! Also in attendance was Monsignor @Lozart. A fine gentleman to play with, who has a very pretty pew pew.
  5. I have the 9, my friends use 5s. The only real difference I've noticed is the lack of accessories for the 9, as the pin connector system is entirely different. I eventually bought an adapter that allows me to use 5r accessory on the 9. Range etc seems better on the 9, but then I use one of those long flexible antenna, whereas my friend are all using the stock aerials so I suspect its more likely that.
  6. I once saw him sprinting across a site with a double ended light saber. Got kills too.
  7. I had to surpress a chuckle as I was streaming that. Lovey gbb MP5 made to look preposterous with that optic. But hey, we all play how we play. I wander round the site with Colonial Marines patches on my shirt and a rubber axe 🤷🏼‍♂️ Oh and I'm fairly sure Skirmish Wycombe still run a "dmr must look like a dmr" rule.
  8. Damn, that's just over a week. I've had UK orders take longer.
  9. Well, it arrived! Exactly the item i ordered and pretty swift delivery. All good 👌🏼
  10. That sounds like a great day. What site is this?9)
  11. Oi oi Berkshire guys. I can also recommend Red Alert. Wycombe Skirmish is okay, but I find Red Alert marshals a lot more attentive to the game. Having said that I've not played at Skirmish in nearly 2 years so it could well have improved.
  12. God damnit,I just looked on evike a couple of days ago and it was out of stock 🤣 Ta.
  13. I need the collective knowledge to help me find a part. I've been looking for a Madbull Ace Socom stock (see pictures). Unfortunately I can't find one in stock (ho ho) anywhere I trust. So, drawing on all of the knowledge and experience of you lot; is there anything similar out there? I really like the look of this particular stock and want to get as close to it as possible, but don't want to pay silly money. And I don't want to sit and wait in the hope that one will come up on the classifieds eventually. So, any ideas?
  14. I love spring shoties. I'd be well up for that
  15. Another great write up, as always. Yesterday Red Alert ran their first Battlesim LITE. No kit restrictions. Arm bands in use. No medic rule. Only break was for lunch. Basically one long skirmish day with set teams and shifting objectives throughout the day, and one constant objective. Red won the day convincingly (boo hiss), and overall the day was a great success. It was a good intro for anyone interested in battlesims/milsim/filmsims that don't want to invest in specific kit. Discussion is going on about what worked and what didn't, in order to tweak the rules as this may become a regular event every couple of months or so. I had great fun, with the highlight being escorting two WWII jeeps across the site to an objective point. But by the end of the day my back was giving out to me (I'm an old git), so I switched to war reporter mode and live streamed the last 20 minutes to Facebook, which I've now uploaded to YouTube and included below. I also took off my facepro and subsequently took a round right on the top of my nose (shown on the livestream🤣) Disclaimer: video contains foul mouthed old crusty! Red Alert's next actual Battlesim (not lite) is on the 21st of May. Book at this link: https://redalertpaintball.co.uk/battlesim/
  16. Sorry! But it really does work 🤷🏼 However! I will get some lower risers and try it out. That Hawke optic is a leftover from my Air rifle days, and I just whacked it on the ssg. It came with those risers. I'll experiment, if only to stop your eye twitching.
  17. Stay single. Don't spawn. Buy all the dumb crap. This has been a public service announcement on behalf of the big kids party.
