https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/electric-powered/m4-airsoft-gun_i87023 I have to say this one. I'm sure the seller has been intentionally evasive about the brand & model to hide how low value all of the guns are. My money is on this being something like the Cyma CM.057 as all the other guns are lower-cost product. I doubt the gun is even worth £60, especially being a two-tone. EDIT: Punisher has the same suspicion I have on which gun it is.

For what it's worth, I've had great experiences with Fire Support, especially with them stocking obscure parts that allowed me to keep some of my much older RIFs relevant today.

Whether it would be OK is a huge unknown. Some retailers swap out springs (and leave the original in the box) to keep them well below site and legal limits. With those that don't, the +10% variance out of the box puts you far too close for comfort in terms of failing a chrono test. The Krytac P90 has a quick-change spring so you can drop in a lower power spring easily. You won't need to remove the gearbox from the gun, let alone open its casing up. Just bear in mind that M*** springs are not completely standardised so you will see variance in muzzle energy between the M100 springs from different manufacturers. On top of that, the compression and air seal within the cylinder will have a big effect so working out the right spring isn't an exact science. M100, M95 or M90 springs may be suitable. Whichever spring you use, I would leave in some head room to account for very small differences between chrono test readings - it's all too easy to chase a limit then find yourself over it when you come to the chrono ahead of a game. The Krytac model is largely proprietary so if something mechanical or electrical goes wrong, you'll either be locked into Krytac's ecosystem with spare parts or you'll need some expensive tech work to get it back up and running. I would also suggest saving up for a chrono for peace of mind so you can go to a game with something you have a good idea will pass.

Adding to the previous replies, while you can sell bulk packages, you should anticipate lowball offers. I'm not saying it's right, nor am I advocating it. The reality is that the more items there are in a bundle, the less likely people are to want all of them items and pay the standard rate minus depreciation so they'll offer you less with the intention of flipping the unwanted items.

Quite ironic that the seller wants to show "complete transparency" but doesn't think to be transparent in the images. "Mmm... images are the first thing that people's attention is drawn to. Let's waste a potential buyer's time by not getting off my arse and making the images represent what they're buying. No more, no less."

What Lozart said. I use green gas in my Gold Match and have had no issues with slide wear or damage when I've put a few dozen mags' worth of rounds through it.

https://highpressureairsoft.co.uk/products/5ku-tokyo-marui-hi-capa-51-gbb-outer-barrel-aluminium-blue It's out of stock from HPA UK but this is the outer barrel I use on mine so I can use a tracer if I wish. The gold isn't a perfect match but I resprayed it to suit.

Similar for me. I loaned a friend (not a regular airsofter) a really cheap but skirmishable M4 I had set aside specifically for that purpose. I put on a dot sight for him but he lost a lens cap without saying anything and when I asked, he acted like he didn't know what I was talking about and didn't do so much as offer to pay for a replacement. He later wanted to borrow one of my more favoured Hi Capas but I refused. I don't think he's worked out why. The only chance I would loan any of my guns to randoms is that they pay a deposit for the value of the gun and its accessories so they have that financial incentive to treat it with some semblance of respect. Even then, I'd only loan anything that's not a daily driver or especially favoured by me.

It looks promising. If it were GBBR and MWS compatible, I'd tell them to just shut up and take my money.

That's not entirely true. Not all TM Hi Capas have threaded outer barrels with the Gold Match being one of them unless that has revised in the past 18 months. I swapped mine out for a metal threaded (internal) so it maintains the aesthetic.

You can get the Holy Warrior version of that LPVO for £250. What's so special about his repro that it's worth the same amount yet he's presumably not paying VAT?

I was 95% sure I know the site you're talking about as its portaloos are shocking, even by festival standards. Mentioning that it's an ex-RAF airfield is redundant at that point.

The biggest cringe I remembered was a team of speedsofters in their purple and white uniforms at the Battery. In fairness, a couple of them were reasonable but one player was the most insufferably self-satisfied twat who took play and himself far too seriously and had no self-awareness. Even in CQB, you may have to give your opponent the benefit of the doubt with hit taking because you may not feel a torso hit if you're wearing a plate carrier - just shoot a different part of the body. One of the speedsofters (on Blue team) claimed to land a hit on an opponent on Red team but the latter didn't call it. Speedy boi had a go at in the game but the marshal nearby reminded him with short shrift to take it up with a marshal and not to have argue over hit calling and that it was mentioned in the briefing. Back in the safe zone after the game, the speedy boi confronted the Red team player and had a go despite the marshal's warning. It started to get heated but the speedy boi came up with an absolute howler "We're a serious team and we play by the rules." putting his hand on his chest in the most smug Will McKenzie fashion. The Red team player was initially pissed off but he scoffed and laughed at the speedy boi taking himself so seriously. Another game I was in at the Battery had the same speedy boi team with the same self-satisfied player who insisted he shot an opponent but a marshal and I both had a better line of sight than he did and he clearly didn't as the BBs went a good foot wide to the left of the opponent's shoulder yet McKenzie swore he hit the target, which to be fair probably was true as I assume his target was the thin air to the left of his opponent.

Maybe though I want to give him some benefit of the doubt that he can eat some humble pie and ask about something not so niche and esoteric then find out for himself how helpful this community is.
