Damn, I must have missed his latest hard man antics. 🤣

When you can't give substance to a bogus claim, retaliate with insults. That strategy always works and inspires confidence to buy something from you at an rip-off markup! I welcome being proven wrong but it's awfully convenient he's now come up with a story that he doesn't think he'll be challenged on about his "friend". Classic strategy to prey on people's sympathies and distract them away from challenging the claim because it would be poor etiquette.

I played at RIFT's Blackstone CQB site on Saturday and I echo what El Zomba said about the intensity of playing. One part I'd add to the immersion was the sound and lighting effects as they did day & night time fading in certain games. One thing I'd add about the setup area is that it actually has more space than the complement of players will need but that's because a hard limit of ~40 players in total can be booked per session so the game area doesn't become overcrowded. On El Zomba's point about pyro, the safety briefing on Saturday (so I presume Sunday also) specified that that pyro is non-paper only so you can't use smoke, Mk5s, etc., due to both compromising visibility in an enclosed space and the increased risk of fire as the location has a lot of wallpaper in its decorations as the site is designed to resemble a village. BFGs and impact grenades are acceptable. Earpro would be a good recommendation when pyro is used there though I don't see how mandating the use of earpro can be enforced practically - unless the marshal sees the back of your head, they should always be able to tell if you're wearing eyepro but you can be wearing a head or ear covering of some sort that obscures your ears.

Tobacco... I'm sure it's of the wacky variety.

Really commendable work! Your health and wellbeing seem to have improved greatly from playing yet there is such ignorance that airsoft can be hugely beneficial.

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/other-equipment/other-equipment_1/airsoft-equipment-accessories-everything-else_i70770 "I don't have the time to list every single individual item" Nor do you have the inclination to show pictures of what you're selling to justify the price or even specify if the quantity of BBs you're selling and if the bottles/bags are complete. A lot of that stuff is worth that much brand new but only if you listed brand names...

I appreciate the seller may have been burned by other people but Christ alive, why project that bitterness on to prospective buyers?

https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/35139-ares-as03 He may have paid more in the past but this rifle has been below £100 for over a year. https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/ares-x-amoeba-as03-sawed-off-striker-sniper-rifle-urban-grey-as03-ug

"I am looking for £2000 for the lot as I need it all gone I am open to offers but please be sensible" How can anyone make a sensible offer when he hasn't bothered to itemise his bundle properly on images you have to squint at? For all we know, £2000 could be a rip off by a few hundred quid.

I hope that bastard gets what's coming to him. Driver Wood has a boot sale tomorrow so it may be worth giving Gareth or anyone playing there tomorrow the heads up for anyone trying to flog it.

As kindly as I can say this, your enthusiasm for guns isn't a defence. The whole point of UKARA is that regular players get an exemption for retailers to sell them an airsoft RIF for the purpose of their gameplay having realism. The UKARA defence is ultimately a compromise from a time when new legislation threatened to ban the sale of airsoft RIFs in the UK. If you manage to get in touch with UKARA, don't be surprised if they decline your request to side step the rules with short shrift. If you can't prove you've played to satisfy the requirements, particularly as you've openly expressed no intention to play, you shouldn't hold you breath for an exception or a fast track UKARA number because you didn't familiarise yourself with import laws & restrictions. They're unlikely to risk undermining their own position for the sake of one person who doesn't want "something that governmental" to show some credbility on his part as a responsible owner. I reckon you should treat this as an expensive learning experience because I would be surprised if Customs is willing to hold on whatever airsoft gun/replica firearm/prop it was that you ordered for more than 56 days before destroying it.

Welcome to the money pit, Dan!

I'll add my voice to the choir, from personal experience with the CM16 series with the ETU. 11.1v LiPo is definitely the best choice; 7.4v will work but you will notice the difference for the worse.

The platform definitely needs some work. As said, it's painfully reliant on people checking in regularly because the notification system doesn't seem to work consistently. Some people have been forward thinking enough to leave their number to contact them directly. Actually the first part isn't true. I do enquire about bargains and have bought from there as recently as within the last couple of weeks. I just happen to see a lot of questionable pricing that I would rather not see a newbie get mugged off by. 😁

I keep mine in case I decide to sell the guns on.

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/two-tone-replicas/two-tone-blue-airsoft-m4_i69686 "Hardly used" but also hardly price-competitive when you can get the RIF for the same price. https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/cyma-cm-518-m4-w-custom-muzzle-brake

The price is down to £100 on Prefired now so I assume the seller realises he'll have to take a loss to shift it. https://prefired.co.uk/ads/tti-combat-master-jw3-gbb-pistol/ On a personal note, doing two-tone on a TTI pistol ruins the aesthetic when the graphics are painted over.

Half term regret sale https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/34815-bulldog-m4 "around 4000 BB’s I’m trying to get rid off" Then use them as a deal sweeneter along with the battery, charger, extra mag and broken speedloader, which probably won't fetch a great deal more than a tenner at a used airsoft fair. Yes, you'll have to drop the price way, way below £150. Half that isn't unrealistic.

Definitely on half term still https://prefired.co.uk/ads/glock-17-pistol/ The seller is throwing in a "gift" of gas and BBs but he's selling the (two-tone) WE Glock 17 above retail. Make this make sense please.

I had the same problem on Firefox but not in DuckDuckGo. An update in the former seemed to fix it.

Welcome!

Half Term's come alright https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/r609-hi-capa_i69443 Reused and recompressed pictures that don't show "barely any wear" because the image quality has been visibly lost. For greater peace of mind, you can get the pistol from retailers for the same price! https://outlawairsoft.com/products/army-armament-r609-hi-capa https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/army-custom-5-1-hi-capa-gas-blowback-pistol-r609-silver

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/two-tone-replicas/spring-powered_1/gas-powered-shotgun_i68407 I assume it's the DE M63 version of the SPAS-12. He may have bought it at a higher price but he's probably not aware that the 70% rule applies to current pricing. Prices have come down since then as you can get the gun for under £40 brand new. https://www.justbbguns.co.uk/bundle-offer-m63-multi-shot-airsoft-bb-shotgun-set-orange/ Even the bundle JBBG offers is more competitively priced. https://www.justbbguns.co.uk/bundle-offer-m63-multi-shot-airsoft-bb-shotgun-set-orange/

https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10956672 According to Companies House, they've had numerous orders to be struck off but they've kept getting them put off. I'd guess they're trying to prolong the inevitable forfeiture of their assets with going bust.

https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/34709-mk23-sokom-with-supressor £90 + delivery for a two-tone where not only is the brand new RIF £70 + delivery, he helps us out by saying where he bought it. https://jdairsoft.net/asg-mk23-stealth-assassin Does he want the buyer to cover the cost of the two-tone he paid for but has since been scuffed/partly flaked off? Shop around a little more and you can get the ASG MK 23 for even less. https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/asg-mk23-special-operations-nbb-airsoft-pistol-in-black.html
