I agree with @Impulse if your going to spend a load of money upgrading it anyway then why not get a cheaper donor. The Cyma is actually an aesthetically pleasing good chunk of alloy with a nice weight to it for the price.

Regarding friendly fire, most sites I've been you just take the hit but on my local site you take it initially however if its then quickly established that it was friendly fire then the shooter takes the hit in your place and returns to spawn. There is an unwritten rule here where regulars shot by rentals and noobs let them off and take the hit anyway gently letting them know by saying something along the lines of, "careful mate that's a team kill but I'm going to take it for you, you crack on". It's also kind of an unwritten rule that if you've already walked 5 or so meters as a dead man before establishing it's friendly then you just crack on to spawn regardless. Works well even though it sounds messy and it encourages trigger discipline however it's a small indoor site and I'm not sure it would work so well on a big outdoor site with lots of players where the walk to respawn is lengthy.

Yep and he doesn't monetize either so you can binge him with only one ad between vids. Good man. Yep agreed, good shout!

Reminds me of the dude in the sea with no arms and legs, I imagine it may be you who put him in that predicament.

I know only that I know nothing!

Earth = Round Vaccine = I'm not well enough read up on them. Not very satisfying answers I'm sure, maybe this will help. Mask mandates are stupid!

Also a sweat monster, let us know how they hold up, most reviews I've seen are affiliated.

Clique clique boom! Divisive statement it is not, the division already exists and you see it as divisive because it opposes your narrative, I didn't create that division with my statement, a statement which could be applied to life/society in general not just Airsoft and can therefore be applied even by a person who hasn't passed the number of posts or skirmishes required to have an opinion. "Cunt" ouch MY words cut me deep. Never insulted anyone for being old, I implied that old usually means one has enough experience to wield some influence, not really an insult. Goby? Cue MerriamMonkey! Oh wait he's already been back through here and failed to pull you on it, cliquey much? Again no experience in Airsoft needed for my socially based observations. Also don't be a hypocrite, your gobby, you know it and your clique knows it but you use it in favour of their narratives so they don't pull you on it.

@Dobbin66 Glad you had a good time! Like who and what you want! Don't be swayed or silenced by the so called many they are often just the loudest, oldest or most influential in their clique's. Listen to all but think and decide for yourself what is slander and what holds truth, there's always a little of each to every argument. If you take a position express yourself regardless of the general consensus and implied stigmas, you may be opposed but most will not hold disdain from one thread to another and it's worth being here as the knowledge and experience is high. Hope you enjoy your time here and in your next game, regardless of whose on your team!

I can't get my head around allowing that to affect my day in the first place to be honest.

@Pseudotectonic the whole speculative invisible tech is just a daft and proves that people are just being salty for the sake of being salty, making up extra ways to whine. Bands for safety? Fairness soon went out the window! More rules you bring in the more whiners whine. Ghillies have to wear leg bands for when prone, well ok non Ghillies can't stay in cover that hides arms, on and on and on it would go, more whining than enjoying unless you enjoy whining in which case jobs a good one for some I guess. Ghillies should use bolt action and pizzle and that's a good handicap at closer range. Agreed, so let them enjoy it their way. Id argue cheaper than Otacon Stealth Camo or selling your soul to the devil for that magic stuff you were on about. That to me means that ranges are shorter than real life therefore Ghillies are less effective. It's not a problem if you don't make it one, you can have hi cap high rate of fire if you want and they can have low rate of fire high concealability. Who cares, enjoy it and when you find one before he finds you and you take his arse out it will taste so much sweeter.

Which pretty much means you need to import, all I see on websites for anything I want is out of stock. @steampunksultan consider asking your chosen store to restock what you want and just pay their markup, still have to wait but most likely less hassle.

If you don't mind elaborating, what's 904x? Googles giving me vacuum cleaners. Oh never mind, that's the M904x lol, I'm stupid ignore me!

If the arm band is to show team affiliation not to make players stand out then who cares where a ghillie wears it so long as they accept that when they get shot by friendlies it's their own fault? Players often shoot people before band identification simply based on player directional heading and their own itchy trigger fingers, probably the same ones whining about ghillie band placement. If your on side with a ghillie communicate so you have some awareness of his area of operation to negate the frequency of team kills and vice versa/more importantly Ghillies communicate with your team before you start. It's not cheating if the band is for team identification as opposed to making one stand out and the only one suffering is the ghillie himself when he gets hit from both sides. @leadly put some longer grassy fabrics on one arm, wear the band on the arm, cover it with the fabric, screw the whiners on a technicality, of course they will still cry because they like to suck the fun out of everything!

Speaking of Luke, he posted a video last night stating that his turnaround time is down to 4 weeks and he's accepting work, he accepts mailed items!

Whatever pistol you buy make sure mags are easy to come by, I bought an ASG CZ P-09 then quickly realised I can't find mags anywhere barring importing and even then there's few choices. Ended up finding a classified ad on here for the same pistol with two mags and some other bits such as holsters for the same price I paid for my gun and only been skirmished once, I bought it for £100 just for the mags but a good deal really because I would of paid £50-£70 for the mags even if in stock in UK so I technically got the pistol and accessories for the change but I was lucky in that regard. Love the pistol fits my hands really well but its just not easy to come by mags. Food for thought!

Yep common website trick to generate traffic!

@Adolf Hamster that makes sense, good shout. Thanks for chipping in!

Thanks for input gents, seems in this game there's very few perfect rif choices straight out of the box and some tinkering disregarding general servicing is almost inevitable regardless of whether you spend £300 or £1500 on the initial purchase (perhaps more so on the £1500 varieties), that in mind I like his approach of swap out the problem factors only as oppose to update the whole gun, especially with my budget, although it seems sometimes upgrading one part creates a need for numerous other parts in order to work well together or avoid one stripping the other etc. If anyone has other YT characters with this kind of standpoint feel free to list them here so I can add them to my watch list as I'm absorbing a lot at the minute and it would help me avoid wasted watch time, money and cementing bad information. Yeah I noticed that too, he said everyone lies to you even me, "I do my best to sneak a lie into every video to see if you can spot it" or words to that effect. Appreciate the heads up. Good read, thanks!

I'm good with that lol he's not far wrong we all have one in us, me perhaps more than most.

If your happy to spend the money you could consider some good tightly woven wool or tin cloth. I'm not a wealthy man but I was lucky enough to find a Filson jacket in a charity shop once for £20 (these retail for £400+) The weave breathes well, blocks wind and water and is super tough when it comes to rubbing off the various surfaces you find yourself brushing past and clambering over not to mention they are very smart looking jackets. I've never worn it for Airsoft as I've only played indoors so far but I've done plenty of walking and exploring in much the same environments and its never met a match.

I enjoy this guy's videos and I'm curious what forum members thoughts are on his knowledge, I'm not interested in people's opinions on his personality as that's subjective and he already appeals to me in this regard and I'm hoping the people who do reply are tech savvy themselves so as to avoid the blind leading the blind. To me he comes across as no bullshit and prefers simple upgrades while maintaing a purist mostly keep it stock and just choose a good system in the first place approach which appeals to me being new to the game and not so affluent but my lack of experience also means one knows not who to trust, he openly admits that many people dispute him but that just makes me trust him more. Thoughts please techies and tinkerers?

Warzone will always be free as they squeeze payment out of all the micro-transactions. Campaign and multiplayer should be free to Game Pass as Microsoft own Activision now however they may just add all the old ones for now while they run the new game paid for a while before adding it to game pass but I'm hoping they just add it on day one release, fingers crossed. I personally enjoy the campaign's more than multiplayer.
