Dad's and their kids eh? 😂 I'm the same. Mate of mine got us into it (he's currently at some massive weekend gig with 3000 other like minded nutters) and now me and both my boys are into it. So much so that the kids games "room" is slowly being converted into an armoury!! I've bought a couple of second hand guns and stripped them down, sorting out what I can, so that I'm now jealous of the youngest (9!!!) and his Mp5sd!!! I don't run, I think of it as tactical walking. Knee pads are a really good idea!!! Don't get bogged down with "everything must be perfect" type clothes, unless you're wearing a guantanamo Bay orange overall, most things blend in with your surroundings. 🤣👍 Oh and don't accidentally shoot your boy as he's ventured too far ahead as he'll never let you forget it.. 😂😂 Call your hits and love every daft second of it. 👍👍

Lol, I'm working on it. 🤣🤣

"standing in the rabbit hole looking up....." Now on pew #6.... Honey badger, m4 (boys), m58 shotgun, Mp5sd (other boys!) , mp5, mk23+gofasterbits, m92f, glock 17... Loving it....

Sorry for the bump but has anyone managed to get a battery compartment extension for this yet? I don't want to damage my cables anymore. I've removed the spring loaded stock opening doodad which gives a bit more room but another 30-40mm would help....

Ah, a bakery dweller! Modicon plc? Good lord!!!

Yup. 25 years industrial maintenance engineer and I hate house wiring. ESPECIALLY plumbing wiring. Bleurch. Gimme a 3 phase or inverter any day!! Nice panel by the way Dan. Tidy. 👍

Good points made by all. Interesting read on ASG too. I'm fairly new to the game and had no idea really, hence the question. 😁 Makes sense that they don't break down completely unless "composted" properly and I can't see many sites running around with a vacuum cleaner picking them up from the woods 😂😂😂 I work in the food industry and that wastes a shed load of money/time/plastic, it just doesn't sit right sometimes. (watches ring doorbell for greta visits.....)

Morning team. Heard a comment at my last skirmish about bio Bb's and I thought I'd ask the collective. Game was stopped as someone got a shattered bb in the eye through some mesh, I heard a guy say that the bio degradable bb's can shatter. I have searched but maybe my search terms were off a bit but I like to use them, considering we throw a lot into the woods (some even hit their target😂) and 40 odd players lobbing a kilo of plastic balls each is going to get greta thunderbug on a mission.... So, for the semi noob in me, do they? Are they bad news? I don't need guilt for blinding someone cos I was trying to do my bit.... 😎👍

Sorry to bump a month old one but it's about tools and I like tools. 😂 Grab yourself a decent set of wire strippers too, if you're doing a few connections. I have some rs ones that have survived about 10 years. I'll dig out the number in a bit. It's better than using side cutters (although I'm a sparky, so still use them a lot) and makes sure your 1.5mm cable is still 1.5 and not 1.3ish when you accidentally stri off strands. 👍

Ooh, that's interesting. Glad you posted this as its about 2 miles from where I live (near brands hatch). Might look it up. 👍 Thanks.

Well. It's been eventful! R4 is dead. Tappet snapped and they appear to be held by unicorns as they're quite difficult to find... The boy now has an m4 variant (340ft/s out if the box!) and the honey badger now at 351ft/s. Yay! Took him and two of his mates yesterday to apocalypse airsoft in Maidstone and I think they now have the bug too!! Boy had a bit of a moment when the smoke he was pulling got caught on his glove and burned his finger but they sorted him out and he's still as enthusiastic as ever! I may have inadvertently purchased an m58b shotgun while I was there too, you know, "just for emergencies"... 😉😁

Well, we did it. Spent the day running around like nutters and shooting people 😂 I'm knackered but what a laugh. Honey badger needs a bit more oomph and I'd get more kills throwing my pistol at people rather than actually shooting it at them.🤣🤣 Game, as they say ON. 😎👍

Cheers for the warm welcome guys. Much appreciated. Have landed a cheap and cheerful mp7 (R4?) by accident, that needs new batteries so job 1 will be looking at the utterly massive world of what will fit and what not to get. 😁 I'm an engineer so taking things to bits is the easy bit. 🤣 The amount of firing my boy was doing at our first skirmish I think I'm going to need to strip a tesla. 😁 @gamble just subbed. That chair looks comfy 😊

OK, so 47 years and excessive pies have put me off doing it but after my youngest got hooked, then father /son hobby was born... I genuinely don't have a clue. Lol. I've got a mate who is really into it and I'm learning what I can so I don't look like a complete noob, just a partial one... 🤣 Going to do a few rentals before buying something interesting too. I will be annoying, asking random questions that have been asked before (must search first!). Hope to pull the right ideas from your experiences. Er, "game on" 😳
