cool.. shame they dont have them in OD!

Can't blame them for calling you out.. If you play foul, expect the same back. Maybe you where playing within the rules, but you where not exactly being a gentleman. Personally I would probably have shouted "hit" or "knife hit" real loud*. I would however not lie to a marshal, I would explain my point of view, and expect to hear no more about it. *This would also probably technically not be breaking the rules either. But you wouldn't want anyone doing this to you if you sneaked up behind them, the same way you wouldn't want someone to walk up to you in a way clearly intended to cover that they where on the other team, then knife you. I have not seen this punch video, but I have come in a bad situation once. my first skirmish. I was quite nervous due to it being my first skirmish.. the rules where explained... some people apparently think they are above listening and that it is acceptable behaving aggressively based upon not knowing the rules. attacking team have unlimited lives, and re spawn by taking 30 phases back. the defending team have one life in the first building and one in the second. once a defender die on the first building they have to WAIT dead in the second building until the marshal have declared that the first building is clear and the game moves to the second building. Now what happened is we have taken about half of the first building. when I get shot from the second building.. oh dear.... so I retreat into a room, sit down on a bench and think "what now......". I can't see any marshal, and I decide not to call for one, after all, it is my first game, I will just let it go. Forgive and forget. I also decide that I've been sitting down for a longer time than it would take to walk 30 phases. So I come out of the room again... and I get a storm of verbal abuse from the guy who shot me and is now walking towards me. I can't recall the full conversation but I at some point said it was a gun hit (and I can not recall if it was or not... or why I would have said it was if it was not... well, except being put in a very stressed situation, being a very peaceful person having someone who resemble a football hooligan looking like he going to physically attack me) and he saying he filmed it (indeed he had a pov camera) and would hang me out... the marshal came and just tried to restore peace.. So I would be exposed on youtube to the world as a cheater, a world who like the person in question, had not heard the rules.. I have however looked for the video and never found it. To this day I get sad thinking about this whole thing. This situation put me off very much. It changed what otherwise would have been an excellent introduction to the sport. Was I not already so set on airsoft, I would probably not have continued after this. If the person reads this message, you can send an apology by PM.

Yes.

you wont be outclassed with anything mentioned in this thread. PAS seems to have plenty of black G&Gs in stock: http://www.proairsoftsupplies.co.uk/acatalog/m4_and_m14_variants.html or you could see if you find a G&P !

what kind of attention? pulling them up/adjusting them?

really cool to see something a bit more unusual! real nice looking load out there!! (and it's not usual for me to like anything with black in it!)

mine are so used that the velcro is gone.. now THAT is annoying. been sewing on new velcro but think I will invest in a real good pair soon.

will it not retreact even if you push it? if so, likely it's not the spring that is the issue. If not, I'd try to compress the spring. if that does not work you better get a new one or just have a charging handle that does not retract.

Makarov... KWA Makarov what are they doing??

tshirt n shorts, and dont wear anything else on your head except for eye & face protection. hopefully keeping your overall body temperature down will help against the head sweat.. also how long is your hair? might be good idea to keep it just a few mm... wouldn't remove it completely, as sun burned head sucks.

Main reason I do not wear a lot of gear and encourage other people also to go light. I never forget the grown man (40-50s) who stood up in the bushes in a semi only game, emptied his mid cap on full auto while shouting "call your f*ing hits!!", face looking like a tomato. Is this the behaviour of a grown man??!! behaviour like this is in my opinion a lot worse than the person who occasionally doesn't realise they are hit. oh and just as a side note, I was not on the receiving end, I was on this persons team. Then again, there is a crowd of player who think themselves up above other players and, whether deliberately or not, never taking any hits. These guys are a right pain.

just be positive and have fun! we're a friendly bunch most of us! if in doubt - take the hit. if something bad happens - try not to let it bring you down.

All I can say about TWA marshals is that when I used to play there... which is a while ago.. they where nice enough and never bothered me. however if I should go on the opinions voiced by faceless people online, I would not think very highly of them. damn we're going off topic.

sick... what's your excuse?

little note also... in "reality" the bullets would in most cases either lose most of it's velocity on impact, or simply pierce what it hits, depending on ammo type. calculate the ricochet?? what ya talkin' 'bout?? just lit a room up from the outside and you've ricocheted everyone inside of it. stops becoming a sport. Bunker have banned pyros for this very reason, people using them instead of trying to shot people. Was playing in the evening a few months ago... was laying down to get a good position.. arms covered nettles (I don't see them, just feel them).. oh well, sucks but I'm already in position so moving wont do much good! 20 minutes or so later when walking to safe zone and looking down at arms... filled with ants!!! once all ants had been gotten rid of arms looked like they do after full-auto-cqb

means you don't have to have a massive spring being compressed and decompressed, shaking the gun and reducing the accuracy. great for sharpshooting apparently.

never tried the sef... but I'd go ahead cut it off it was me

The selector would fall out if you dremel away one side of it.. unless you just remove the sticky-outy-bity? as for the lower receiver I can recall it was pretty easy thing to change last time I did it

bit of my good ol' dyslexia there^^ and you can get a G&P for under £250, look around!

or better yet, a G&P.. or CYMA AK (cm.045, cm048, cm.050)

that extractor bits is a really cool idea, never seen them before, I'll probably order a set... or two, fathers next bday sorted!

been using one point sling for a while. It works pretty well, but I wouldn't want my gun hanging from it for prolonged periods as it puts quite a lot of pressure onto one side of your neck/shoulder.

I'd have to disagree! never had any discomfort with my Viper knee pads.. they don't always stay in place but that's another matter

embarrassing.

why limit yourself to mauri?
