Academic discussion: Maximum Spring vs Motor TPA
Colin Allen replied to Pseudotectonic's topic in Electric Guns
People are idiots! Surely everyone knows that the earth is a tetrahedron. -
Indeed. I spent time yesterday evening filing down several surfaces of a steel COL to persuade it to fit and do its job in an LCT gearbox.

Which one are you getting? Ant Supplies sell a couple of rails that fit the weird L85 rail. https://www.ant-supplies.uk/rails-and-adapters/sa80-l85-picatinny-stanag-rail-adapter.html https://www.ant-supplies.uk/rails-and-adapters/airsoft-sa80-adapter-rail.html

My MPiKM, strichtarn and M56/76 would like to know more.

The Vapex batteries are good and well known; imo they are better than Nuprol ones.

I have to agree; it is not a spectator sport.

What does everyone really think of kickingmustang
Colin Allen replied to Mk46 Mod0's topic in General Discussion
I doubt that he would recognise satire if it full auto’d him from 10 metres. -

You poor sod! I wouldn't wish Woolwich on my worst enemy. -

Exactly; a 14 year old with an ARP and a drum mag. That is why I prefer sites that are semi only or have an MED for full auto. -

Real world drills often fail when faced with a 14 year old with an ARP9 and a drum mag . -
V2 Gearbox exploded. One more spring to go?

Bolt catch spring. -

I haven't found that to be the case at all; I have met very few players who claim to be ex-military. -

Oh, he isn't a Walt; he just neglects to mention that he wasn't a regular, which is the impression he gives. -

Names Nicco, who constantly touts that he is an ex-rifleman, without mentioning that he was a Reservist. -

I have encountered him twice, initially as a marshal and later as a player. On the first occasion, he was asked to leave the site for: 1. Shooting players (including a playing marshal) well within the MED. 2. Shooting players at their regen. 3. Aggressive behaviour. On the second occasion, I witnessed him: 1. Shooting players at their regen. 2. Being aggressive towards players. 3. Swearing at a player who was clearly under 16 and calling him "gay" as an insult. One thing I do know about him is that he gets rather upset when someone lands a paper pyro directly on him. That was him. -
There is indeed; there are also others such as the very simple CHiLUN v2, that I rather like.

No, you will need a mosfet that allows burst functions to do that, such as the following: Perun V2 Perun AB++ Gate Aster Gate Titan All of these except the Perun AB++ replace the trigger contacts etc.

Dave's Custom Airsoft: ripping people off since 2014.
-
Is the correct answer!
-
The problem with that is that the nature of an overpowered full auto capable airsoft gun is not clearly defined in any legislation. All we know is that it becomes a lethal barrelled weapon and, hence, a firearm. Anything else is up to the CPS and whichever, if any, court some poor sod ends up in.
-
I think the definition is clear enough; it is enshrined in law. What is uncertain is what happens if someone breaks that law. Sites really do need to get their act together on chronoing; however, no matter what regime you put in place, people will always find ways around it. Strangely (or not), the only site where I have never had concerns about hot guns is the one site where they rely on players to check their own RIFs and then carry out spot checks during the day, with a no-tolerance approach to hot guns. If it is hot, you are going home.
-
That is where it gets messy as the law is rarely either clear or explicit; however, anything over the stated limits is a "lethal barrelled weapon" and, hence, by definition a 'firearm". One interpretation would be that a full auto airsoft toy shooting over 1.3J is indeed a prohibited Section 5 firearm, with all the legal ramifications of that. However, that will probably only be properly defined when someone gets arrested for possessing such a weapon and the case goes to court, probably followed by an appeal. Let's hope that never happens.

Rare PTS Magupul Masada ACR in A-TACS
Colin Allen commented on Overlord7's advert in Electric Rifles

Thanks, I have enjoyed both of my visits there; the lad did as well when he came the first time. It will be a regular part of my rotation of sites now; it offers something very different from AP and Tower.
-
Ah, in that case, it definitely prefers the older style rubbers.
