Story? Also, how do you avoid losing your BFGs? I bought two SWAT VTGs but they're black. I'm worried about losing them even in a CQC indoors site.

Any recommendations for an Eotech clone sight 551/553/558
MrTea replied to RostokMcSpoons's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I have a SOTAC XPS3. Bright enough to be visible even during the sunniest of days to the point where I even turn it down a bit just to save battery. I much prefer eotechs/holographics style of optics for the large 'target window'. I can't get away with stuff like micro red dots, T1/T2 etc or I haven't found one that works for me. I tried using a sight protector but found that it caused me more issues than it was worth and just removed it. -
Sounds like you need to start speaking to the marshalls/field owners to get something done about this. That or go to a different field.

Gotcha. I'll wait for @TipsyDiver to reply as I want to know their exact headset setup so I can get a gauge on quality. It looks like a set of Earmor M32 but i'm not totally sure.

Does anyone know where I can find a replacement rear sight for a G&G MP5A4. Mine has chipped part of the sight off and I want to replace it.
Cheers. -
That's a great looking kit. I was wondering about your headset as i've also been looking for one that attaches to the rear mounts of my helmet and you happen to have exactly what I want. Personally, I don't need it for comms, more for aesthetics and the active hearing protection. Where'd you get it from? What's the sound quality like?

You could also buy generic dehumidifier bags from amazon and bang them in the case/bag. BZTactical have recently began stocking dehumidifier stones that sit in your gun bag/case but they come with a big mark up.

Fifewargames - they're out of stock on the official site and just about everywhere else when I was looking. Edit: As of 1450 today Fifewargames are also out of stock. Edit2: As of 24/1/23 they're back in stock, black only.

Got them today due to a minor delay in delivery. They feel good in the hand, wider/bulkier than most BFGs but fill the hand nicely. They're a hefty bit of kit, a good weight to them. The body is covered by a rubberised plastic type material that will soak the majority of impacts however the metal head is exposed and will take damage. 209 primers give a good loud bang. 9mm even more so. 12G are as previously discussed, as loud as .209 but a big ol puff of smoke to go with it. Only issue i've found is that one of my two grenades was a bit finnicky with the pins and required a fair bit of 'use' before it wore in enough to be acceptable. The other was totally fine out of the box. I can only guess there were some tighter tolerances during the making of the 2nd grenade. After extensive use i'd imagine it'll be fine. Tested .209, 9mm and 12G with both and they work like a charm. That 3/4 second fuse is not as long as you think

I liked them mostly because the spoons are fixed which means no lost spoons or buying replacements. As for noise, i've tested 12G blanks with other BFGs and they're barely any louder than .209 and they're definately not louder than any other single-use pyro I own. Only difference is the 12G blanks just emit a big puff of smoke when they go off. I legitimately think that the 9mm blanks are louder than the 12G ones. 12G blanks are just that much more expensive than 9mm or .209 that it's not worthwhile to be honest which is probably why most newer BFGs only cater to .209 primers like the Quake 8 etc. 12G blanks are £15 for 10. £1.50 a bang. 9mm/.380 blanks are £18 for 50. £0.36 a bang. .209 blanks are £8 for 100. £0.08 a bang.

2x Swat VTG. Been looking for some timed re-usable pyro for indoors games but they were always out of stock everywhere and the used ones were completely battered, some even had chunks missing from the bodies of the grenades. They should arrive tomorrow, can't wait to test them out. FifeWargames look like they had a small restock of Swat VTGs but they're only in black so I may have to find some luminous paint or bands so I don't lose them in a dark corner.

What a kick in the nuts, 10 months without and for nothing. Personally, i've just had my RIF back from the guys at 'The Cage Airsoft' and they were fantastic the whole time. From dropping off my RIF to collecting it, total time was around 2 weeks. While I haven't skirmished with it yet, test firing new magazines in the garage has been promising and I cannot wait to field it.

I've noticed that the level of bastardry tends to increase with HPA players but it definitely isn't limited to them. I've seen plenty of cuntery with all other types of guns/power sources in my limited time playing from people not taking hits to overshooting and everything inbetween. It sounds like the field is poorly run, especially if they're not locking the valves/regulators post chrono with clearly identifiable and difficult to remove tags. As others have mentioned, i've seen optics/lights etc smashed/cracked/damaged by 1.1j AEGs.

Interesting. Does your field have BB weight limits for full auto guns as one of mine does. They'll only allow you to use 0.28g BBs on full auto guns as maximum. Not entirely sure why as you're still limited to 1.13joule but heyho. Thanks for the longer post, it's always good to get some extra info from knowledgeable people. Cannot wait to get my G&G MP5 back from the tech who started working on it today.

What discord is that? £50 for that tracer seems like a good deal? Could be a discord to keep a slack eye on incase any other deals creep up.

Selling a Yakeda branded Plate Carrier with quick release. The plate carrier is new without tags which is how I bought it, I never got to play using this plate carrier. Selling it due to buying a different plate carrier. The PC comes with a triple m4 pouch in the front with 4 pistol pouches attached to them by molle. I believe the M4 pouch is attached into a pouch by velcro as can be seen in the pictures. On the cummerbund also has extra pouches (stitched in) that can accept M4 magazines or just used for storage. Yakeda say their plate carriers are "one size" however I'd say this is a medium to a smaller large but is adjustable. Shipping available. Edit: Not sure why the first image is upside down, I can't seem to force it the right way up.£60

Cool. Let me know how that goes. If it does hapen to work properly and just needs some decent tracer BBs, then it'll be an even bigger win. -

Just so happened to pick one of these up as my recent procurement of an MP5 had no muzzle attachment, just bare threads. My logic was that this thing actually works out cheaper than buying an actual muzzle attachment from almost anywhere. It arrived today and it appears to work. When I drop a BB through the unit it flashes a white light (I thought tracer units use UV light?) and the BB has some very faint glow. Not sure if it's the unit that's crap or the BBs. Either way I don't really care. £7.50 for a mock surpressor is a win in my books. -

Selling MP5 magazines as I don't like low-caps or high-caps. There are 4 low cap mags of 50-60 BBs and 1 high cap of (I think) 200 BBs. The white marker is just dry erase and was used so I could keep track of which mags are which. Will be removed before shipping or left on if you require. All the magazines feed fine in my MP5 they were bought with. Postage available.£30
