  1. Assuming that the buffer tube is the standard length for an AR-based rifle, most stick batteries should fit, as The_Lord_Poncho alluded to. In all the marketing guff on that link, they didn't actually bother to specify the battery connector explicitly though since a Perun MOSFET is mentioned, I'll assume it's a Deans "T" connector, in which the battery Hudson originally suggested should be the Deans version, not the mini Tamiya.
  2. Forgive the forthrightness but you've posted here enough to know information from your side can be a great help and not being forthcoming is only a hindrance as it leaves us second guessing you. Why not help us help you by disclosing which gun you have?
  3. I know we're in tough times at the moment drugs are never the answer. That's the only explanation I can think of for charging more than double RRP when there isn't much of a scalper's market I'm aware of for that gun.
  4. As a regular P90 primary user, I'd say you should be mindful that its trigger, like real steel bullpups, can be a pain in the arse when it's the original TM spec or one of the TM clones i.e. Cybergun, CYMA, Double Bell, JG, etc. If you're a stickler for a consistent trigger response, you should consider either buying the TM P90 Plus, upgrading the TM clones with a MOSFET/ETU or if you really want to spend more, there is the Krytac P90.
  5. That reminds me of a Mack's case I posted here long ago of a "custom paint job" that looks as if Helen Keller painted it using her feet.
  6. https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/bargian-bin/used-aeg_i71514 I assume this is that gravity-fed plinker. If so, the seller is asking for retail price despite the plinker being used and incomplete. https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/well-d90h-fully-auto-p90-replica-inc-target-in-blue.html
  7. I assume not given that the rules are (rightly) strict. Whether it was applying for my mortgage, stating the end of my notice period when resigning from a job, filling in time sheets at work, I put always put the day number in the date.
  8. As Anonymoose alluded to, itemising the parts will inspire confidence. Not to accuse you of being misleading, for argument's sake, £700 of that £1000's worth of parts could be a real steel optic or you may simply have overpaid for the parts.
  9. I think the lucid recovery has started. Now £250.
  10. I just came back to this thread because a backlog of email notifications of messages on Airsoft Hub from months ago came through to me. I've made some purchases myself over the past 18 months so I didn't think the site was quite dead but it wasn't being looked after when scams and suspicious ads were dealt with slowly. @ItsDave Adding the age of the advert is hugely helpful as it had been frustrating to come across a listing only to find it is months old and items either sold without a notification or the listing had been abandoned. Thanks for that. Especially with Discord and some other platforms banning or further restricting airsoft sales, I welcome as many platforms as there currently are. I think Airsoft Hub could do with one or two moderators handling the listings, especially when ads are reported for being suspicious or clearly a scam when photos from other places are used there. Like this place has recently done, there should be a hard requirement for a handwritten note of the username and the date of posting the ad in at least one of the images.
  11. Possibly though if that sometimes happens because you weren't shooting for a few minutes, the tracer unit may have gone into sleep mode from being idle.
  12. It depends on whether your ARP9 has been modded for an even faster rate of fire. The Brighter series should be able to keep up with most high rates of fire. My Brighter C can light up BBs for up to a 35rps rate. If your rate of fire is slightly above that, the chances are you're shooting faster than the tracer unit is specified to keep up. If it's below, there might be an issue with the tracer itself.
  13. Unless somebody owns or has worked on this AEG, it may be worth specifying the brand and model though I guess it's based on the AR family. Is there a bolt within the handguard under the black Keymod picatinny rail? Is there a faux gas tube whose mount needs to be removed?
  14. What kind of smack has to be smoked/injected/inhaled/swallowed to put a £550 price tag on this bundle? https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/35460-specna-arms-sa-e06-edge
  15. I just see it getting banned from CQB sites in the UK within a month of landing on our shores because of overkill concerns. I maintain from that thread that a tri-shot setup would have been so much better, and less likely to get hit by the ban hammer.
  16. I don't know why he's calling it a "magwell safety" either
  17. What's that phrase? "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar." His anger and resentment are aimed at the wrong people. Fair enough that he's pissed off about being let down by Paypal after being fleeced out of guns he'd shipped before but why take that out on prospective buyers. Even if he listed something of interest to me, I'd buy elsewhere and pay more not to deal with his attitude.
  18. I'll never understand why a "friend" can go to the time, expense and effort of upgrading their airsoft guns but creating their own account to sell them is such back-breaking work that can be considered a war crime.
  19. I haven't forgotten. My point was that returning prohibited goods goes against disrupting the supply of them to the UK. The OP asked if it was possible to make the request, not if it was possible that they'd return them. I didn't think it was necessary to point out the notice of prohibited goods being destroyed as it's common knowledge that any prohibited goods are destroyed when a compelling defence isn't given.

    You're best of posting in this section and editing the title if you can to something less cryptic https://airsoft-forums.uk/forum/151-appraisals/ The rule of thumb is 70% of the lowest current retail prices for a RIF in "perfect condition". AEG magazines and batteries tend to be deal sweeteners
  21. Possible, sure, but I don't think it's even remotely probable that they will do it. As they see it, you've tried to import a prohibited/restricted item so having them return it to the sender to not only costs them money and paperwork, it defeats the purpose of disrupting the supply of prohibited/restricted goods as you can always try and import it again or have someone do it on your behalf. I agree with the advice given that you need to be quick and persistent in getting back to Border Force to clarify that you have a defence for a RIF and that you disclosed this to the sender.
  22. It's not bad. I've enjoyed field stripping as well as completely disassembling then reassembling a few guns. I haven't played it for a couple of months though.
  23. I assume he was a rookie scammer because of his response to being called out for being unrealistic with his pricing and giving limited product info then deflecting to avoid being held to account for the guns he was listing. If he was legitimate, you'd think he'd have some humility to listen to those more knowledgeable than him as he openly said he doesn't know much about airsoft.
