Lignum Vitae is the best; it is self lubricating so is ideal for a cylinder.

Another vote here for the Perun AB++; they are easy to fit and provide a good range of features, especially pre-cocking. However, the Perun Hybrid for V2 gearboxes is also excellent and easy to install. I think you have made the right decision.

I believe that he is also a day trader, which probably provides him with additional income.

What do YOU want to achieve by fitting a mosfet?

Welcome. Are you interested in airsoft pistols (that shoot 6mm plastic spheres) or the ones that shoot .177 (4.5mm) or .22 (5.5mm) metal pellets?

I have the 24mm version; no problems with it.

Not being on the property ladder is not a viable long term plan for the vast majority of people.

I did not say you were.

You don't have to attach it to your gun. Do you have the version with the 17mm hole?

You are conflating two entirely different things. His alleged financial success through YT does not negate his many failings as an airsofter and, more importantly, as a human being. One does need to declare YT income; however, that calculation is deeply flawed as it assumes that the initial number of daily views is maintained over the year.

Or both? There have always been gullible sheep out there; the likes of George "Beau" Brummell and the other dandies were earlier incarnations of the "famous for being famous" phenomenon.

Out of stock at the moment, but these are rather good: https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/external-parts/chronographs/ht-x3006-chronograph

What a wanker you are.

I am pretty sure it was before Putin decided to try to recreate the Russian Empire.

Ah, a Conservative! That explains it.

No, people slag him off because he is a cheating crybaby who is far more interested in generating revenue than in playing airsoft. Faking hit markers, spawn camping, going out of bounds and creating confrontations are how he abuses our hobby. He gets very upset when people give it back to him.

My barrel is now in the Ossi 74 and will have a load of rounds thought it on the 17th.

And they aren't photos of the one that he has.

Ouch! What an unfortunate morning!

Midcaps are very hard to find; even Octagon don't have any.

I was pleasantly surprised by how long and stiff it is.

My son and I share a JG G3; it is surprisingly rigid. £100 is a good price. Plastic is a polymeric material, so you did get a polymer RIF

All of them? How many were there?

Today saw a return to Splatoon in Essex; this is a relatively small site, which is mostly used for paintball with twice monthly airsoft events, alongside occasional police firearms training sessions. It has a range of wooded areas with different types of cover in each, as well as an open area with a helicopter at each end, assorted cars and lots of container buildings. It also has a very good safe zone with endless tea and coffee for £1 and is one of the few sites that provides a vegetarian option for lunch. I had arranged to meet up with my old airsoft buddies, the father and son team of Andy and George, who I had not played alongside since before Covid as they usually play in deepest Kent and I tend to play in Essex. At chrono, my ARX160 was running very low but still slinging BBs a ridiculous distance, so I decided to use it for the morning anyway; the VZ58 was used after lunch. The day started off with a long fallback game; as the attackers, we had infinite regens on a marshal, while the attackers had one life in each of two wooded areas and the two halves of the open area. Getting into the first wooded area is always difficult as it requires the attackers to run across the front of the defenders; we took a lot of hits and got quite badly held up for a while. However, after massing for a charge, we broke into the area and fought our way through it, eventually declaring it clear and being relieved to find that we had not missed any defenders as each missed player adds 30 seconds to the time. Having cleared that area, we pressed on into the next one, which fell rather rapidly. Next, we had to break into the first part of the container field, which is tricky as the entry is quite restricted and under file from the defenders. Eventually, we pushed in and reached the first helicopter, which provides the first bit of cover. From there, we slowly pushed the enemy back; the three of us were mostly pushing along the right flank, clearing defenders from behind various cars, the edge of the woods and several containers. Once that half of the field was cleared, we had to get one player to the grey helicopter at the far end of the final area. This proved tricky as the area is well set up for defence, so we wore the enemy down before charging the helicopter led by one of our largest players, who managed to get his hands on it. After a quick break to mag up, the game was reversed; despite hard fought defences of each area, the enemy achieved their objectives somewhat more rapidly than we had managed. This was followed by a simple domination game with regens on fixed locations; three spinners are located across the site and the teams have to turn the spinner so that their colour is facing upward. Initially, most of our team headed toward the container village, securing the spinner there. However, news came through that the enemy were in control of the other two spinners, so a group of us set out to assist our colleagues in the central area of the field. We took the spinner and pushed the enemy back; despite several counter attacks, we kept them at bay until the end of the game, while our colleagues in the container village held on to their spinner quite handily. Next came a game where the attacking team had to get a bomb to one of the helicopters and then to the other one; they could choose the order in which they did this. In the first stage, attackers had infinite regens, while defenders had three lives; once the first helicopter had been bombed, everyone was on one life. At this point it became obvious that some of our opponents were related to Usain Bolt, as they reached their first helicopter ridiculously quickly. However, we made it much harder for them in the second half and they failed to reach the second helicopter. On turning this game around, Usain Bolt's relatives again came to the fore, reaching both helicopters and locking them down before we could get there. Once they worked out that the black helicopter was our first target, we did not have a chance of reaching it and could not switch to attack the other helicopter as the team carrying the bomb had to drop it where they were hit, which was near the black helicopter. However, we had a good firefight before the game ended. It was a good day, with some excellent play from both sides. Weapons used: Umarex (S&T) ARX160 Ares VZ58 Cybergun 1911 Railgun
