  1. They may all be fine, but 'different from' is the grammatically correct version.
  2. The Consumer Rights Act applies in Haggisland as well.
  3. Land Warrior's warranty: "All damaged deliveries or shortages must be reported within 24 hours of receipt, any longer than this may invalidate your claim. Standard Warranty/Guarantee All electric rifles, spring rifles and electric pistols come with a 12 month warranty, unless otherwise stated. Batteries, slings, speed loaders and chargers included with electric rifles/pistols are not covered under warranty as they are regarded as 'free' items. Gas pistols, gas rifles & spring shotguns have a 30 day warranty. Warranties are not transferable."
  4. One thing that really gets me is using "different to" rather than "different from". 🤣
  5. https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/27294-fully-modified-arp9 And it's shooting hot for most sites.
  6. I quite like the programmer, although I recently had to wire it to Deans. Changing the VZ58 to Deans delivered an unexpected bonus; the Deans connectors are just the right size to keep the three battery cells in exactly the right places to make refitting the handguard simple, rather that the nightmare it was before.
  7. I really wish that KA would rerelease their one.
  8. Is there really any point to fitting an R-Hop to an AEG? Exactly how and where is the sector gear catching the pickup tooth?
  9. I have a VZ58, an SLR and a Masada (AK magwell version). They are all interesting internally.
  10. Interesting! I will be rough with them in future.
  11. Has anyone played at North Staffs Airsoft recently? I am taking the lad back up to university later this month and we are looking to get a game in on the Sunday. Last time, we played at Anzio, but are considering North Staffs this time around. If you have, how big is the site? How many players do they get? How is the game play?
  12. I spent some time today working on my Magpul/Ares Masada and was moaning commenting about some of the appalling design decisions, including the ambidextrous selectors; my son then asked why I have three Ares rifles if I hate them so much. The answer is simple: they make some unusual and beautiful RIFs. As Egon_247 noted, their gearboxes are wonderfully over engineered and as robust as a Russian warship.
  13. Excellent! Keep on enjoying it and always remember that it is about having fun.
  14. How much under? Around 285-300 on a 0.25 is just about perfect. With a 0.25g BB, the maximum FPS is 313, as it gives the same energy (Joules) as 350FPS with a 0.20g BB. If you set up your rifle to be at, or only just below, the limit there is always a risk that you will be overpowered on a site chrono when you go to play; chronos are not consistent. It is better to set the rifle up to be at about 1J (328FPS on a 0.20g BB or 295FPS on a 0.25g BB) and fit, for example, a 60 degree Maple Leaf Macaron hop rubber with one of AK2M4's red nubs. You will see a noticeable improvement in range and consistency, especially if you also fit a better quality barrel.
  15. "Under 300. at 1J" What do you mean? What weight BB are you using when you get 300fps?
  16. I also think that is what he meant, but it is not clear.
  17. Which spring did you use today?
  18. Yes, you can; it just works better with IPA. Just dial it back so there is no hop applied.
  19. It probably won't in any meaningful way, but soft cloth is safer.
  20. That would be fine. Where did you play?
  21. It does look like you are clearing some grease from the barrel, which is a good thing. There will be some resistance but, if it is too much, use less cleaning rag. I would not use a paper towel, though. Use something softer to reduce the risk of scratching the barrel; I use strips of J-Cloth with Isopropyl alcohol. Make sure you do not damage the hop rubber. It is better to take the barrel out of the gun to do it, if possible; that enables you to get a good look down the barrel to make sure it is clean.
