New DMR? I'm open to suggestions

Yes, the site's rules will definitely help as some sites permit a minimum of an electronic means of limiting yourself to safe and single-shot fire only whereas some insist that you also have a mechanical means to prevent your firing selector being switched to full auto even if your MOSFET or whatever electronic firing system is limited to single shot only. The Vorsk model is only in its first iteration of production but as others pointed out, its low temperature performance has yet to be seen. I suspect ChatGPT has suggested it only because it is by, for want of a better a term, a box shifter brand rather being a model that has been extensively field-tested as a DMR.

Though the broken part of the upper receiver doesn't affect the red dot, you've essentially lost your right-hand iron sight so some functionality has been impaired. You could see £120-150 because it's a TM though I wouldn't be surprised to see people bartering toward the bottom end because of the upper damage.

No, single shot only. No binary triggers, no burst. One BB fired per trigger pull and release only. As Tackle said, sites may insist on either a 2-second delay between shots or for there to be only one BB in the air when you're firing. It goes against the idea of a marksman if you need to spray a target to hit them. Not only does shooting above the site limit invalidate the site's insurance and make them liable if they were to allow you to play, you could be charged for committing assault if you use an illegal airsoft weapon and injure a player.

The response time isn't the quickest unfortunately. Unless anything's changed that I'm not aware of, it's still a one-man band running the site.

Not the sharpest knife in the draw, is he/she? Hopefully, while you've been messaged, nobody's been scammed into paying anything. If any contacts him by message on the site (if it works), fingers crossed they see a red flag when the scammer asks for PayPal F&F or a bank transfer despite PayPal G&S in the copy & pasted text.

I really don't want to come across harshly (I genuinely don't). The used market for two-tone is quite unpredictable because of the smaller buyer base. It's just gone Easter so it's more of a buyer's market than a seller's market until the middle of next month going through summer when things might be more favourable for sellers. There are more airsoft boot sales being hosted these days. Depending on where in the UK you are and the cost of your travel and pitch to sell from, that might be an option for you.

For me, it's the colour match more than the sliding style I'm not sure on. With the rest of the tan furniture, I'd prefer a tan stock myself.

So did I. He really should have asked for an appraisal first.

Galvatron commented on cam seth's advert in Electric Pistols
If you would like it gone ASAP, don't you think you should sell this at a more competitive price? One could buy this gear without two-tone for not a great deal more money, brand new and with peace of mind from the retailer. The valuation probably won't be what you want to hear but you are better off asking in Appraisals so you can manage more realistic expectations. -
Have you tried Fire Support or Eagle Six? They often have mag followers and the parts for the linkage.
-
Where was that price pulled from? I've seen those go brand new for about £400 both this year and in 2023.
-
For the sake of clarity, what did you check and double check when you took it apart? I assume you looked down the barrel with it and the hop unit to confirm the nub was pushing down the bucking as you increased the hop and it lifted off when you decreased hop? What weight are you using?

https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/38161-m4-ar Non-descript M4 listing without a brand & model. Seller wants £200 where the only photo is an M4 being used at Skirmish Wycombe but nothing to hint the listing itself is legitimate. Bank transfer only because he's allegedly been scammed. Really confidence-inspiring. 🙄 In the words of Whitney Houston, "crack is cheap".

Specna Arms M4 Carbine, SA-C04 CORE (Orange, 4x Magazines)
Galvatron commented on acoolrocket's advert in Electric Rifles
Is that spring a second, lower-power one or is it the original that had been swapped out with a lower-power one being put in? I know some retailers/distributors swap out springs prior to sale to consumers. If it's the latter, you should be OK but if it's the former, it's going to be a legal headache selling it as 380fps (presumably on 0.2g) is way too hot. You need that below 370fps to be legal legal but for practical purposes, it should be below 350fps to be site legal for most UK outdoor skirmishes. If you're uncertain, you should ask the shop you bought it from or kindly ask a local retailer/skirmish site to do a chrono test to confirm the muzzle energy both for yours and a buyer's peace of mind. -
I'll say around the £475-500 mark - there's a bit of sway around the PEQ box along with the torch, holo sight and the magnifying scope. Unless the original stock, rail and grip are included, I would argue that they're not additions but rather swap-outs - if you have the original parts and they're in good condition, you may be better off putting them back on the gun and selling the aftermarket parts separately.
