  1. Love Helikons gear. I've got their Alpha Tactical Jacket in the Foliage Green and play it in year round. Might have to invest into one of their Windrunner jackets for when it begins to reguarly pish down.
  2. Apparently sound level can be tuned as per below but even then, that's still a lot of noise going off near your head.

    Selling my SWAT VTG Timed Blank Firing Grenade. Comes with everything needed including the adapters for using .209, 9mm and 12 gauge (short/signalling) blanks. The reflective tape I used makes it easier to find in dark rooms but is self adhesive and can easily be removed if needed. Comes in original box/tube with manual. Shipping to UK only. Any questions or offers, shoot me a message. £70 including shipping.

  4. Like I said, as long as it's not prohibitively expensive, it'd sell. Not at that price.

    Army Armament L85A1 (EBB) but it has a metal Daniel Defence style handguard (no trademarks). The sling loop on the handguard was broken during shipping however I have a replacement, just not fitted it yet but will come with the rifle if bought. The blowback is fantastic, very snappy. Can be easily disabled if you need to. Comes in original box with magazine and manual. Has never been to a game/skirmished. Has just been sat unused as I prefer my other AEGs. Shipping to UK only. Postage will be with Parcelforce 48 hour express. Any questions or offers, shoot me a message. £150 including shipping & paypal fees.

  6. I used a Specna Arms Core 04 as the base for my project/learning build. The polymer for the receiver is actually really good, I just dislike handguards that are secured via the delta-ring, they always seems loose/wobbly. I will say that the Specna (blue) hop-units are great and haven't had an issue with it. Reliably lifts 0.3g out to good range and is very consistent. I'm sure Rostok will be here soon to shill the Double Eagle guns with the EFCS
  7. Well shit. I bought a holster (that's supposed to fit all M92 series pistols) for the WE Samurai Edge I just bought and it doesnt fit. It's very tight and to actually lock into the holster it pushes the slide back about 1cm. Turns out there's some extra bits on the slide that contact the holster. The question is should I sand down the inside of the holster or just try "resizing" it with some hot water to try and stretch the holster out. Failing both these methods i'd have to get a universal/adjustable holster as apparently no one makes a holster that fits the Samurai Edge. Checking around elsewhere about the holster I bought, I found a site that has a bit of small print saying the Samurai Edge doesn't fit amoung some others... a tad annoying when that say it fits all M9 models but hey ho.
  8. Just arrived this morning: WE Samurai Edge Gen 2 bought from @Daveoc33 <- big thanks. The mag is gas tight as it still arrived with some left for me to fire it full auto for the giggles. This thing is clean with very few signs of wear. Stripped it already and the inner barrel looks like it's never had a BB through it. I plan on clear-coating the emblems on the pistol grips to preserve them as i've heard these can wear away quickly. One issue i've noticed is that it looks like the hop isn't being applied centrally (when looking down the barrel) so I probably need to strip the hop unit and have a play with it however i'm going to replace the bucking with a new one due to the potential age of the stock one plus buckings have likely massively improved since this was released.
  9. Interesting. I have a two-point sling for most of my guns but don't like how I can't cinch it tightly to my body if I need to like you can with the L85 sling. Mind posting what you made?
  10. I signed up to their newsletter for this latest release. In case anyone hasn't seen it they sent me a PDF of three different installation methods. I've tried attaching images of the PDF to this post but the forums won't have it. I've uploaded it to Mega so you can look at the PDF here; https://mega.nz/file/RsFiBS6S#E0Js44LnGw0AaGamF86znhqfHrMWgQ6D03Lz-1sr-OE
  11. That's cool, would be interested in it if it's not prohibitively expensive and how it (if it does) integrates to work with AEGs or does it require a whole new gun to work? I did note on their site it states it's 140-150db so everyone near you (and yourself) is going to need hearing protection.
  12. Anyone else registered with Airsoft-hub getting spammed with a bajillion emails? Since 1900 i've gotten 21 emails alerting me to messages. When I log in, i've got no new ones.

      i had one which was a reply i received a couple of months ago. so guess their server is having a bit of a meltdown as the website is also super slow

      I had 10 when I get home, I asked why they contacted me as I don’t even have an account now, got a message back saying they had a glitch which meant any messages than had been sent but not delivered where now going through. It’s seems to have stopped now. 

  13. As for scam sites, there was someone attempting to impersonate Crown Airsoft and had a very convincing site. Only thing that got my spidey sense tingling was the fact that their stuff was about $100 cheaper than everywhere else. After looking about their site a bit more the name of the site was spelt wrong; CrownAirosoft. At a glance, it's easy to miss. The fake site has since been stripped to it's standard layout presumably by the hosting service. I try my hardest to pay with paypal everywhere on the internet just in case my brain turns off and I get scammed.

  15. Looks like they're potentially introducing more variations from CYMA too. I wonder what their price point is going to be.
  16. As per this reply in the other thread, KombatUK makes a version of this boot too. I picked mine up on sale for about £25 but their MSRP is usually around £40-£50. Here's a pair for £40. I've been using them for indoors play and they've very comfortable. Zero complaints about them. Not been to an outdoors site this year but I tend to use my surplus AKUs then.
  17. Nuprol make one as well. It's the PMC Micro B Chest Rig. I've been using one for about 4 month and it's been fantastic one I took the bunjees off and added magazine inserts.
  18. That's a quality spot right there. Good for me too as I was also looking for some kind of storage and that guitar stand is perfect
  19. Hi all. Just need some extra eyes for something.

    Can you guys take a look at this picture and tell me if these gearboxes/trigger mechanisms look the same/identical?

    1. MrTea

      MrTea

      I'm planning to buy a speed trigger unit for the R85A1 (to reduce the horrid trigger travel) but the manufacturer says it only works on the G&G versions despite them appearing to be identical and taking into consideration that the AA R85 is a clone of the G&G one?

    2. Madhouse

      Madhouse

      Tough one, they do look very similar but there may well be small differences in the tolerances through the manufacturing process that mean it either needs some fettling or doesn't fit at all.

       

      Only way you'll know is to give it a go and put a post up to tell us all how it went.

  20. Thanks for the answers, I plan on changing to deans later down the line when I add a mosfet to the gun but for now I just wanted a quick fix to stop the wire pulling out of the connector.
  21. On my Army Armament L85, one of the wires going into the tamiya connector is so loose it can be pulled from the connector quite easily. Would it be okay to use a dab of super glue to keep the wire in place?
  22. This is the second post this week (across this forum and reddit) i've seen of gear being stolen. A guy on reddit said he uses Apple Airtags or Samsungs equivalent to track his gear on gamedays if he's leaving it in a 'safe zone' but not locked up. Can't help but feel this is a good idea going forward minus chaining your gear to a tree. Always take pics of your guns/gear so people know what to look for in the event of it getting picked up by sitck fingered bastards.
