Hi folks,
I'd like to pick up an adaptor plate to fit an RMR to my Cybergun FNX-45. I've found a couple abroad who are charging £30 for postage on top of the cost of the adaptor, or one in china that's guaranteed to be delivered in no more than three months, but I'm hoping I have another option. Has anyone got a recommendation for where I could get one that won't break the bank, and will arrive in a matter of weeks?
Thanks all,
Tom

Thanks folks! Sounds like I have some experimenting to do! My current thinking is to get the cheapest pair of fan-ventilated goggles I can find, then pull the fan out and stick it in a pair with quality lenses and anti-fog spray/wipes, and see how those work for me.
But yeah, next time I find a wad of cash down the back of the sofa I might just look at a WarQ. I'm keen to have as few straps/pads on my head as possible. 🙂
Thanks again, everyone! 🙂

Hi folks,
In the past I've used mesh goggles, but I've heard horror stories about poor quality BBs shattering into pieces small enough to get through, and I suspect that mesh is quite a lot weaker in general. So I figure I'll have a look at solid lens ones.
I'm a touch concerned about fogging though. I appreciate there are sprays and things, but I'd like to keep the chances of it to a minimum. My feeling is that the goggles that seal against your face like ski goggles are likely to be less susceptible to it, since your breath doesn't get up inside them as much, but could someone confirm? If I'm not right about that then I might go for glasses-type ones so I get less sweaty wearing them.
Thanks all!
Tom

Hi Tom and welcome to the merry-go-round. Easy to get on but a little harder to get off lol.
Its all starting to happen from next week. Outdoor sites are reopening yippee!
Have you still got any gear to start with?
Afuk will answer any of your questions to get you back up to speed and assist you.
Check out @GAMBLEhe has a utube channel full of info and fun.👍

Absolutely! Can't wait to get back in the saddle... particularly while it's not too hot - I'm a run-around-like-a-mentalist-getting-shot-a-lot kind of player, so often overheat under a plate carrier etc!
I didn't get rid of any of my gear so that shouldn't stand in my way. Not that that will stop me getting some more though, of course! 🤑
And thanks for the tip about Gamble. I've only looked at his eye pro video so far but that's been a great start - I'm still using mesh for fear of fogging, but it sounds like I'm behind the times!

Cybergun FNX-45 adaptor plate
in General Help

Oof, sorry for the delay. Looks like I wasn't subscribed to this thread like I thought I was!
Anyway, thanks so much for the tip! You know, after all the reading up about adapter plates it never even occurred to me to try! Maybe I'll be lucky, but if not I'd certainly rather pick up a new sight for £40 than a little metal plate for £45! 😃
Thanks again,
Tom
