This is why everyone should purchase their own chrono. You want to get it set up so that it's firing under the limit whilst using the heavier ammo you'll be using in game, and then if your site for whatever dark-age reasons still insists on using 0.20s to test, you should be comfortably under the limit with both. For example, my T10 fires at around 2.1J on a 0.45 which is what I game with. There's one site local to me, which I occasionally play at, who still use the outdated "test on a 0.2" method, and as a result the same gun will shoot at around 450fps. Safely under on both, and I know I'm not going to accidentally joule creep over the limit.

Tactical Geordies or Negative Airsoft?

Thanks, hoping to make it up when schedules and the stars align!

I think I did sell that one, but then ended up with another one in a bulk buy. Message me and I'll see what I have

Looking to venture further afield to make up for a lack of interesting sites up North, I'm considering some sites, one of which is Fireball, near Birmingham. Has anyone been before, or currently plays there? If so, what's it like? How does it play, what are the players and staff like? How's the terrain, and are there any site specific rules or restrictions to be aware of? Thanks!

Welcome! 40 here, been playing since I was 13. Where are you located and what site did you visit? There may be local players on here that you can team up with and help lessen any social awkwardness beforehand!

This is the old style M4A1 AEG.

I used some of the more recent ones at humber Airsoft with 0.28, as well as an older style one years ago at a Halloween game and they really are impressive for the price! Managed to get a hold of several spare mags too.

As it's nearly 2025, it's time to take stock of the last year and how it's been. For me, it's been somewhat of a disappointment on the Airsoft front; with a mix of poor timings and worse weather leading to fewer days out than I've been wanting. In response, I'm looking forward to the new year and hoping to change that! I'm based in the North East, which for me, is not great when it comes to Airsoft. Most of the sites up here have little to interest me which means there's been a lot of travelling on the few times I've been able to get out. Trying to make it a bit more efficient, I'm looking at weekend games, so that I can split up the travelling so I'm not driving 3/4+ hours each way. What sites are there that offer either games on both Saturday and Sunday, and/or allow camping on the night before? Specifically, I'm interested in outdoor sites; woodland and urban. Purely indoor CQB holds little interest to me nowadays. I'm not necessarily talking about specific weekend events/milsims etc. but more towards normal open days, though they aren't to be ruled out. The nearest one to me that offers this is No Man's Land, where they run games on both days of the weekend, and there's also Phoenix Airsoft that does similar, from what I've seen; though I've not been. Is there anywhere that offers what I'm looking for, or am I likely to be out of luck? Anyway, happy new years to you all!

I know Raw War run it as a rule; no 5.56 calibre rifles or below as DMRs.

Also, you're not going to magically get better range or Accuracy just be switching to a gas gun. What ammo do you use currently? Have a look at switching to heavier ammo to start with, as well as maybe cleaning or even replacing your barrel & bucking. If you're struggling with having to fire excessively to get a hit now, then switching to a GBBR is only going to exacerbate this, but with a reduced magazine capacity.
