It also raises the questions of whether this gun had its spring uprated after a legitimate chrono test without a retest, if it was chrono-tested with a false declaration of the BBs weight, if the tester made a mistake on setting the weight or if something else dodgy happened.

Now we know this is on 0.25g BBs, the latter isn't true. No self-respecting site would allow this to be used as it's not only above any site's limits, its >1.3J output makes it a section 5 firearm. An airsoft site's insurance would be invalid if any players were injured with this gun on their watch. Until you downrate the spring so this fires between ~0.9J and <1.13J so it remains competitive, legal and within site rules (some specify <1.0J), your AEG could be worth 5 years at His Majesty's pleasure.

If we needed another reason why stating joules rather than fps is important, his admission that the 335fps is on 0.25g BBs puts it at above 1.3J so he's selling an airsoft gun that could land him and/or the buyer in serious trouble.

From a WhatsApp used airsoft gear group. He paid £530 but didn't consider rentals or buying something cheap to invest in getting UKARA so he could avoid two-tone? He'll be disappointed with his offers but as I assume he isn't a UKARA member, is he not stitching himself up by offering to respray a two-tone unless he still uses a bright colour?

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/two-tone-replicas/cyma-cm-706-sniper-rifle_i57448 70% of retail for a two-tone. That's optimistic. ____________________________________________________________ https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/two-tone-replicas/electric-powered_1/sa-c22_i57484 It looks like our old friend still hasn't heeded advice that he is is mislabelling his gun as something by Specna Arms despite numerous people pointing out with evidence that it is almost certainly a Cyma product. He's jacked up the price too above retail. I hate to cast aspersions but how can one lack a basic understanding of supply and demand economics?

Adding to what Colin said, around the 70% mark is the standard for a RIF in good condition. You may not have fired them personally but they were both test fired to give those speed/energy readouts so their cherries have already been popped. As they were both tested at least 3 years ago, it would be worth test firing both of them again just to make sure BBs feed properly and that the gearboxes cycle for both yours and the buyer's peace of mind.

https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/28438-bulldog-m4pg-ris-airsoft-gun-u I assume this was a JBBG "special" that the OP paid for. https://www.justbbguns.co.uk/bulldog-m4pg-ris-airsoft-gun/ When I could buy the same bundle (non-two tone), brand new for less money, why would I pay for this? Make it make sense please.

If your gears don't move due to jamming, I would also try isolating the cause of your gears not moving (remove the spring first) Does your spur gear spin freely with the sector gear moving with the teeth on the piston? If not, you should look at whether you've installed them correctly. If they interlink OK, see if the bevel gear causes a jam there. As Dan said, your anti-reversal latch and/or its spring may have been installed improperly.

Another great day at RIFT Airsoft's "the Battery" CQB site not far from Stansted Airport. Echoing much of what @Jacob Wright said on the previous page, the session had the expectedly good organisation from the staff. Since the first weekend, they were true to their word about listening to feedback about what worked and didn't work as the site had been updated to balance the games as the initial layout of defences, walkways and barricades did create an imbalance. Now it's much more balanced. It started with a full house of 70 players, split evenly into 2 teams - later in the day, a few players left ahead of the scheduled end of game play but the teams were rebalanced. As he mentioned, pre-emptive and suppressive firing aren't allowed so players wouldn't be discouraged from pushing forward. Doors were opened up by marshals during the day to mix things up and present more avenues of attack and defence. Similarly, lighting can be turned off in alternating or all rooms to change the style of play further so having a gun/body-mounted torch is recommended. The timing and variety with the missions was good as there was enough to be engaged without anything feeling repetitive. The host was clear in pointing out not to argue with opposing players if they didn't call their hits, just report it to a marshal and they'll judge accordingly. It made for a lot less bickering and actually some fairer play as I recall one marshal disagreeing with a shooter's claim he hit the opponent but the marshal had a clear view of this not being the case - the same marshal instructed another player later in the day to call a hit, giving him the benefit of the doubt that he may not have felt it on his plate carrier but the marshal saw the hit on him. There was a raffle with 2 prizes available. 1st prize was a Lancer Tactical (LT-35 if memory serves but it was definitely an ARP9 style AEG) and 2nd was a Raven EU18 GBB pistol. It's a shame that it will be gone in about a year's time but I'm glad I had the chance to play a few times there. I heard a few players had travelled at least 3 hours to play and the Battery lived up (or surpassed) their expectations.

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/cyma-cm-515-m4a1-aeg_i57191 Sorry but regardless of having an extra mag, a battery and a speedloader won't make this two-tone worth £10 more than a brand new black version https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/cyma-cm515-m4-keymod-handguard-in-black.html

Thankfully, the fake Go Fund Me page has gone. I guess they were satisfied with the report and Ollie himself confirming it was a fraud.

https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/28285-jing-gong-m5-a4-jg070mg Even if it has parcel protection and a few handy accessories, that's very ambitious pricing for a two-tone, especially when no context is given for an apparent resale of a new gun.

Thanks for that. I've used the link in my report to Go Fund Me.

The very same. Touching a two-tone CM.515 must be hazardous as it seems to infect people with an inflated sense of what the gun is worth to a market that has limited demand compared to its supply.

https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/27988-full-kit-withcyma-cm515-m4-rif Used twice so at £125 it's managed to be worth more than a £90 non two-tone! https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/cyma-cm515-m4-keymod-handguard-in-black.html

That is some truly bastardly, scummy behaviour. Ollie comes across as the nicest and most down to earth airsofter and was willing to put himself out there in an incredibly vulnerable position yet some scrote is willing to exploit his illness. I need to get off the internet today.

I hope they're as good with you in person as they seemed when I overheard a discussion with a customer returning a faulty mag. Their email response leaves much to be desired in my experience too. They took ages to get back on a pre-sales query I had and never answered phone calls.

It's immensely satisfying when they technically outgun you in that moment but you out strategise them. I once managed to land hits on 3 opponents from around a corner with a pistol before a fourth opponent got me.

I've been in-store at Bespoke Airsoft. The shop is pretty good and they are planning to move to larger premises soon (with much better parking) near High Wycombe. Only Airsoft/Combat UK in Stevenage is easy to get to with plenty of parking nearby and has a lot of RIFs on display in store. They also have a shooting range.

I'm moving to 0.28g as one of my pistols won't lift heavier though I'm phasing out my supply of 0.25g. My Mk23 can lift 0.36g easily if I want distance and low noise but I've been lucky not to have such windy days that 0.28g were blown away easily. Similar to what Impulse said, 0.28/0.32g is that sweet spot of cost vs benefit for me.

3 months. Jeez, that's just brutal. Poor fellow barely has time to plan for what looks like the inevitable, never mind try to live his life to the fullest with his friends and family. Life is too cruel sometimes. I'd been looking at GBBR so his videos were enormously helpful, especially with his cheery demeanour and his willingness to impart so much knowledge. He certainly influenced some of my gas pistol purchasing decisions. I wish the best for Ollie, his friends and family and hope they can make the most out of such an awful situation.
