It sounds perfect! How many players do they usually get? -

That looks like a cracking site! -
But he has extended the barrel, so it's now a proper FAL, isn't it? 🤣

Double Eagle M906C - Internal upgrades / tinkering
Colin Allen replied to RostokMcSpoons's topic in Electric Guns
You don't want to lubricate the gears too much when using the Perun; if you do, there is a risk of getting some on the cycle detectors. If it is running well, there should not be any need to open it up again, unless/until it stops performing as you want it to. You probably did not need to fit new bearings or change the piston parts and cylinder head, but that is done. You did the job and it is running ok, which is good. -

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Colin Allen replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
That is lovely! -
Is the video with the charger edited? If it is not, the charging pattern is very odd and the starting voltage is far too low, which suggests that the battery is being drained very rapidly. Can you try using a different charger? From the sound of the gun in the second video, I suspect that either the motor is in too tight or the gears are shimmed too tightly. As johnnyj said, try backing the motor out a bit. If that does not work, it will have to be opened up.

Excellent! Well done! I tend to disable the ambidextrous mag catches as they are a pain and I am not bothered by them. I sometimes do the same with the ambidextrous selectors as well. -

Do not remove the post; the magnet holder should rest against it. You will need to dremel off the raised screw hole that you have circled. The manual is here: https://perunairsoft.pl/hybridv2.pdf -
Well, that truly sucks!

According to the troubleshooting guide, a green flashing light means that either the motor is disconnected or the brushes are worn out.

That is very impressive.

I run Blaster Devils, which seem to do the job without any issues.

I note that you didn’t answer my question. You cannot just make sweeping statements about the Met not being interested in recovering real firearms without being able to back them up. I do live in London. Your views about the police are not representative of what they actually do and the issues that they face on a daily basis. My eldest son’s partner is an officer in the Met and I also regularly deal with Met officers relating to a range of cases. They are not the Mayor’s personal army; they are regularly dealing with appalling situations and deserve the support of the population, rather than regurgitated nonsense.
-
How do you know that recovering real weapons is not on the Met’s agenda? Comparing the Met with the NKVD demonstrates a complete lack of knowledge of what the NKVD did and is utterly insulting to Met officers. The NKVD was responsible for a vast number of killings, along with torture and other crimes.

That sucks! I hope you manage to get it back. Being outside and active is very good for dealing with depression.

That sounds like an utter shit show. Events such as this are pretty close to my idea of hell, partly because decades of running and working at festivals have left me with a somewhat jaundiced view of the sorts of behaviour that humans indulge in when unsupervised and in a large crowd. Based on what you have written, the organisers should never be allowed to run an event again; however, I am sure they will and equally sure that people will still pay to attend. The chap running a standard rifle using .32s at 2.6J should be named and shamed. I am not sure if the "naughty players" FB group is still running; if it is, at the very least his details should be shared there by the organisers, so that site owners and head marshals are aware of him.

I was on yellow as well; the sides seemed to be reasonably well matched. Welcome to the forum!

That sounds like an interesting day!

He isn't inferring that we are using steel BBs; he is using a form of Socratic questioning.

I think you hit the point when you wrote "..as long as they feel that it is a style of site they could be interested in..." It didn't float my boat at all; I prefer more complex games with mission objectives etc. You appear to have felt strongly enough about the day to create an account here and write your first post about it. Out of interest, which team were you on today?

I had also been considering it for a while. On arriving, I couldn't find anyone to check in with; three of us eventually found someone in the shop/office. While everyone was prepping their kit, there was a fair amount of dry firing in the safe zone, which didn't seem to worry the staff. The real disappointment was the games. Mayhem is very much a paintball site, with a number of different fields that could provide some interesting gameplay. However, the four games that we played in the morning all involved the teams starting on opposite sides of a field and having to do something (move a flag, capture a flag, capture a jerrycan) that was a mechanism to bring the teams into contact. This ended up with two lines of players shooting at each other; there was no real possibility to be sneaky or to try something creative. I found it rather boring. If you are considering going, be aware that they do not do hot food. There are vending machines for fizzy drinks, chocolate and crisps and a tea/coffee dispenser, all of which take contactless payments. One positive element is that, despite what it states on their website, they chrono on the weight of BB that you are using.
