USCM armour? Do show and tell, Aliens fanboi here. Always fancied a Pulse Rifle but put off by expense and Tommy mags.

https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/aps-by-100304-uar-urban-assault-rifle-aeg As the resident UAR fanboi I spotted this. £110, just 30 short of full price, and fucked. Trigger busted and fps low.

Yep, and that's what its all about, having a smile on your face. Whether its practical or not! Quite right too. I've only got four RIFs however the one I shoot most often at home is the 20 quid Galaxy springer 1911 I picked up from BBG4L. Its a hoot. Thankfully never come across any gear snobs at games, the folks at my home site are all great craic and there's none of that. However it seems to be pretty prevalent on the net. Stuff em. Pfft. Who am I trying to kid eh...

Agree with the above, that's not on. Go on, name and shame, who was it?

It's all about the lubrication. Are we still discussing airsoft?

I've never looked at TMs principally because they are far and away beyond my budget. For me one of the thrills of airsoft is how much fun you can have without needing to spend massive amounts. Of course, wanting to spend massive amounts is a very different thing... For me, light weight wins every time, so it's plastic for me. Not at all fussed by recoil. Did try a GBB Glock once a few years ago, was fun but wouldn't go out my way to get one. Yes, gear snobs can look down at me if they so desire with my crappy Lancer Tactical M4 and my UAR. What is it thats said about APS, "A Piece of Shit"? Well to me they're great fun, work perfectly and cost me hardly anything. Most of all, I'm happy with what I've got. And they do the same job of lobbing plastic BBs at sub-350fps as something five times the price. And if folk want to blow 500 quid or whatever it is on a TM, fair play to them. Personally, I'll still hanker after a sub-£150 CSI XR-5 and perhaps an affordable non-CO2 Desert Eagle. As far as I'm concerned I'd never own another gnu if I had both of those.

Good idea. Considered doing that with my M4 as its front wired and the old fashioned handguard is a pain in the arse to remove and install.

Longest I've had it in was about an hour and a half. Wife loved it. Oops, wrong forum, misunderstood the title...

Here's mine, all done in Halfords OD. Didn't bother priming lacquering, just painted straight on. Did it in the summer so the paint set well due to it being warm and dry (yes, it does occasionally get warm in Inverness). Not fussed about wear n' tear, but if you want it perfect do prime/lacquer.

Clearly. But wiv such gud returnz on investmunt yood fink theyd aford sumwon whooz a desent spelchekur too sort out they're websyte. Cos ryt now it looks lyke Angela Rayner is responsible for the coding...

Smart looking gnu that. Summat right out if Halo, or 40k, or Star Wars.

I used halfords on mine with no issues. Seems as good as Krylon IMO. Coating it in matt lacquer will help protect the paint.

Looks smart that. Nice purchases 👍

Phwoarr, haud me back. A top-quality "bundel" (sic, to quote BBG4L) of complete keech featuring keech splintery BBs, keech battery, keech firestarter charger and finished off in super dooper keech dayglo orange for additional keechness. Does it come wi' an instruction "manuel" (again, sic, cf. BBG4L, who's spelling is top quality like their RIFs)? Where's ma wallet...

Yep, plus one on necktubes/buffs/whatever, useful as a motorcyclist and as ad hoc basic face pro, "face covering" to satisfy the covid bedwetters, etc. Speaking of bikes, fell of mine yesterday, hit black ice just coming out of the village and that was me down. A bit sore and stiff today but otherwise OK. Bike trashed however. Bent handlebars, left peg and I suspect the gearbox is fooked as it can only select 1st or Neutral. That's airsoft pumped for next couple of weeks then. Nice cat pics must show the Mrs, she's cat daft. The kittens especially cute. Ooh I'm getting all gooey.

Looking good that, Magpie.

I've had that too with an Amazon shipment from China. Glad to hear your stuff got to you @RostokMcSpoons.

Yeah, if its labouring might be the battery. Also check motor connection. If you'd lost teeth in the gearbox I'd imagine there would be other noises and weirdness so dont think that would be it...

Paint it, go on, you know you want to... Looking good.

Due to the way hop works, FPS does drop, often substantially, it is nothing to worry about. Regarding full-auto, anyone chronoing 330-340 on 0.20g with hop applied sounds rather suspiciously hot, chrono is usually done without hop applied and at the correct weight used in order to calculate the energy, which is the most important thing as its what we're limited to (1.3j max as per UK Law, most sites are 1.1/1.2j). Of course if you're DMRing and locked to semi you've got much higher limits. Would be interested what the chrono is reading on 0.25g and without hop, sounds like a hot gun North of 1.3j to me. Reason being, it's not the velocity that'll break your eyepro and blind you, its the energy of the pellet, and as hop can be adjusted during play that's why it's checked with no hop applied, i.e. max. velocity/max. joules...

Looks quite smart that... although I don't think HFC's a brand known for quality (others may be more qualified to comment...), seems expensive for what it is IMO.

At the end of the day, the vote happened 5 years ago so there's been plenty time to prepare. During which, our esteemed government piss-farted about, tried to go back on a vote multiple times, farted about some more, waffled a load of keech, fannied about trying to reach some sort of "deal" which was made an arse of anyway, farted about again, and eventually after much piss-arsing about told businesses with seemingly days to spare until Brexit day what the craic was... and still left them none the wiser. And here we are.

Apparently so. Government balls up par excellence as per.

Ahem. Please don't tempt me. Mrs. Eezer will be acquiring a nice set of testicle-shaped earrings should I dare buy any more stuff 😖 Although I may justify it by offing a couple of items. Maybe if I sell my current vest, M4 and Shotgun that are currently getting dusty I can justify it. Maybe. Or maybe I'll be forcibly neutered instead.

Probably very busy but also be aware of Brexit, folk have reported issues with deliveries.
