I found it on ebay for £30 or so and took a punt. There's no branding on it, but it is great. Has a fairly decent field of view and the reticule is so minimal. Means it does its primary job of letting me see better down range rather than making me think I can shoot the snot from a field mouses' nose. Ditched my cheap Acog 4x as the optics are so far off that the bb doesn't even hit in the field of view.

The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread
Dan Robinson replied to Skara's topic in General Discussion
Just got back from AWA. It was their Big Skirmish event which was pretty good. Although the other team apparently couldn't communicate properly so ruined the way the combat was supposed to happen, meaning a lot of walking around looking for someone to shoot. Still, 100 people turned up so when the fighting did happen it was pretty good fun. Only thing that really put a downer on the day was the dust cover of my svu fell off..... Thankfully found by the boy in a rather obscure place.... And my Osprey armour has taken the skin off my waste through rubbing, which is now very sore. Still ran, nearly 7 miles, so feeling good about the exercise 👍. Camelbak hydration kit certainly paid for itself too. I got through at least 6 litres of water. Can't believe there were people playing with just little bottles of water. Looks like AWA are going to rename these events Battlesim Lite and running more of them, which as they get used to how thi gs like these play out should only make them better. -
Never really thought about it. Although today for some reason, the vest was rubbing and has taken off the skin down both sides of my waste. My shower this afternoon was excruciating. 😭😭

That's something special 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeah... It should say " added to my ALERT ME WHEN IN STOCK" list. Also.... [mission details]. Are there any questions? [silence] Walk to game area So Marshall, what's the crack?

Not the same topic... But for some reason this popped in my head. If you know.... You know....

Found one of the lesser spotted boy in his Russian hat.... I say lesser spotted because he hates having his pictures taken.... As for tacticool. I have a few briefing shots, but one thing seems common to the sites I play.... The official photographers are better marshals than they are picture takers. My shots are heavily cropped and tweaked 🤣🤣

Just found the forums dark mode settings..... That's much betterer!

As someone who lived in Gloucester when that all kicked off.. I approve LOL Actually, my old man named his last pair of cats Fred and Rosey as they had a thing for finding their way and hiding under floorboards. When the investigations were taking place we used to get crime tourists coming to see the house.... Being long before SatNav, we used to send people miles out of their way, on some occasions even Cheltenham LOL.

The badge translates to "Running Fat"... The nearest I could find to "Fat Boy Running" with getting one made up. Normally have it on my arm though. Loved the unique look of the SVU which is why I got it. Typically not an AK fan though. It certainly has some gravity to it as AVE would say. 🤣

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Dan Robinson replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
When I've filtered out the few dodgy mags I have the. I'll do the same.... Its what I have done with my drone batteries as well. -
Well got my kit together for tomorrow's Big Skirmish at AWA. My SVU courtesy of @Asomodaiwill be having its first run, which I'm looking forward to. Got a big bag of 0.32s to go with it as well as a 3d printed stock extension which is stuck on such that it can be taken off if needed without leaving marks (the adhesive is still going off, but it will be invisible when it has finished). Also got an alternative 2x scope with a filament reticule which is pretty good. There's a red dot sight in my case too. And of course my obligatory "Running Fat" badge. Have got a second Ops panel so I can quickly swap between M4 spray and pray games and DMR. I haven't decided yet whether to try an run with both the M4 and the SVU at the same time.... That's a pretty heavy kit if I do. But I don't fully trust all my pistol mags.

Oh fuck off. 😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 That being said, I've literally just ordered some different leccy tape colours for just this reason. -
You'd thik they'd actually learn to aim at a target LOL. Cracking film though.
-
Surprisingly - given the choice, I'd rather unblock a loo than I would a bath or kitchen sink. At least with a turd you kinda know where you stand - with those other drains the smell is worse and feck knows what is in there. Anywho... back on topic.... LOL....
-
Wish I was - those feckers earn a lot more money.... I'm more the on the Diva side of the trade because I don't' like getting my hands dirty 🤪

I have those cheap ones from amazon linked above and they're great for the job too. I like those knipex ones as they're one of those few multitools that do all the jobs properly. The only real difficiency is that you don't have a proper mechanism to crimp to the appropriate torque. But I've not burnt any houses to the ground yet. My other crimping related toys are: Bootlace Ferrule Crimping Tool STD AWG23-7/0.25-10mm² Self-Adjustable Ratchet Wire Crimper with 1350PCS Crimp Connectors,Ferrule Crimper Plier Set https://amzn.eu/d/bdm5x4z Hilka 28600209 Ratchet Crimping Tool Pro Craft https://amzn.eu/d/fa0d99P And in total airsoft (spending money for the sake of fancy shit) stylee: https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/crimp-tools/0452473 The ironic thing is I'm a sodding plumber not a cable strangler. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Gay Pride was last month I thought?

Boiler / heating ones: This one is not finished yet.... Needs a little tidying. Interfaces the home automation shenanigans to the boiler's cascade manager (the oem stuff costs a crazy amount).
