  1. I'd ask them. If it's anything like most ones running this rule, the site has always provided them. They likely won't be actual bandages, but syrips of white cloth you have to tie onto the injured player.
  2. Laylax extra soft flat bucking, perhaps?
  3. Hi there! I'm down the road a bit in Hartlepool. You've got several sites in the area: NSC near the airport. Woodland gaming on a Paintball site. No limits - indoor CQB in Gateshead NTAC - small woodland site near Pittington Dirty dog - probably the main site in the area, a container village with woodland and open ground. Located at Shildon District 23 - similar to no limits. Billingham by the train station. Adrenalin - another Paintball site, near Richmond. Stirling airsoft - themed airsoft that tends to run weekend events around once a month, set on Catterick army base.
  4. Have a look at the action army T11 too. VSR based, so plenty of upgrades, 90 degree trigger as standard and they're about £160 new with a more modern look, if that's what you're after. Follow impulses upgrade plan and you should be good.
  5. Lovely. The CYMA AK74U I bought yesterday at the MAF that was "Doing 320" is actually over 370.

    Guess I'm gonna have to open it up. ?

      Well it's down to around 325 now, so that's better now. ? 

  6. Omw back from the Midlands Airsoft Fair. 

     

    It was okay, but not quite as good as the last one in 2019, imo. 

    Picked up a CYMA AK74U, a few mags & sights and that was about it. 

     

    Typical that I realised I could have got myself a railed upper receiver for it there too, only AFTER I'm on the way home. ??

  7. Try outdoor and Tactical. They don't do the super heavyweight ammo in bio, but you can get Geoffs naturals up to at least 0.45g. https://www.outdoorandtactical.co.uk/product-category/consumables/bbs/bio
  8. Ahhhhh, that'll be why then! Yeah that explains it, thanks!
  9. Strange. I get no option at all unless I choose a different country. ?
  10. So what's the status on new orders with them currently? Are new orders for UK customers on hold still? I see lots of people having delays, but I've tried filling in an order out of curiosity and I'm not even getting the option to put one through; it gives me "Your shopping cart contains the following errors:Choose delivery method" But there's no option to choose anything.
  11. UKARA set minimum engagement distances now apparently?

     

    That's news to me. ? ? ?

      Maybe he meant 50 feet...

      You know, when you use an inferior unit for measures that relies on fuck all logic :P

       

      Let's just say the head marshal hates snipers.

       

      on a serious note, sites should figure out at what distance a heavy bb fired at 2.3J drops its energy to a "safe" level (say 1J). Your 20m bog standard MED was calculated on a 0.20g bb being fired at 500 fps, we all know that heavy bbs retain their energy for a longer time/distance and that nobody with at least one working brain cell would use 0.2s in a 2.3J gun.

      No, he definitely meant metres. "I was in the army, I know distances!" ?

       

      Like I say, I've no problem with sites running any rules they want, just the passing bullshit off as fact. ?

      @Skara i did run the math on it, a 2.5j shot with a 0.2gbb has 0.39j at 20m, with a 0.5g bb you're talking 1.27j, which lines up surprisingly well with a 1.3j limit for auto/non MED pews

       

       

  12. Haha, too old for that! Some of it was from myself and the rest from the missus!
  13. Got some new bits as a birthday treat, can't wait to actually get out and use them finally!
  14. You can always get a small ring connector for the wire and use the little screw to secure it that way.
  15. I joined the ever-growing AAP owners recently, and treated myself to the AA hop unit. Paired it with a 130mm ZCI barrel from @ak2m4 So I can replace the whole hop & barrel in one go, and keep the original set up if needed. Currently using a flamingo V2, but I've also got a couple of maple leaf buckings on order too. (I thought I had some more spare, but obviously not). Can't wait to get out & use it next weekend!
  16. Not from TG or GF, but ordered from airsoftpro in Czechia and just had it arrive yesterday without a problem via DHL. Express shipping (4-5 days), no charges or duty paid on it (so far).
  17. Got this cracker. (details edited to protect the gormless) I don't get why he thought putting in the price he bought it for was a good idea. ?
  18. Picked up an Action Army T11 recently, thought I'd give a a paint job to cover up the boring old black. ?

      True shame that AA doesn't sell the Gspec with the full stock :(

      They do the short T10? 

  19. I'm heading through to London next week for the first time in a while.

    Is there anywhere airsoft-related (or similar) you'd recommend visiting?

    I know of Wolf Armouries, and I'm flying there & back, so won't be able to buy anything gun-like, but wouldn't mind a browse, or a short shoot; be it on a range or a game.

    What is there?

      what part of London? You can try Bunker 51 but iv'e not heard great things... AirsoftZone in Romford. Proairsoftsupplies in Archway

      if you're looking for a game nearby, Tactical Warfare near Croydon plays Saturday and is pretty cheap

  20. I hate ordering from X-Fire sometimes.
    At least it's less expensive... <_<

      Truly useless website. Their new one is just as bad too.

       

      Seriously it's not that hard to have proper postage calculations - it must be so expensive for them to manually calculate every shipping fee.

      It's just taken so long to even approach getting my parcel.

      It's spent about a week in customs before they've even thought about sending me the invoice.
      Annoying when it can travel all the way from Japan in under 48 hours.

      Remember as soon as it hits your local depot you can ring in - even without the letter - and pay over the phone. But yeh, HMRC have been a bit useless lately. I've something that's been stuck in there for a few days now also.

  21. Spent most of yesterday kitting up for shooting today, and it ended up having to be cancelled due to low numbers. Yay. :(

      It's a fairly large site - old abandoned WW2 RAF training ground. It's got 5 main areas of contact between the two teams, so at 120, that's 60 on each team, split across the 5 areas which takes it down to 12 per squad, minus 4 on each who are doddling back to respawn, so each little concentrated battle only becomes 8 on 8 (give or take, the Grasslands area usually has a little more as it's a larger space).

       

      Parking is tricky though!

  22. Despite all the slagging they get; I honestly can't fault OnlyBBguns for this order.

    Lone UK stockist (that I could find) Over 20% less than the usuall RRP, free delivery & arrived the day after it was posted.

    Still feel a bit dirty though! :lol:

      It is deserved..  BUT if your after something and they are cheaper then why not!! I tend to stay away from a couple of shops for previous customer service issues, employment issues and ethical reasons, until its going to affect my wallet and place an order.. But your right does make me feel dirty B)

      They are the better of 3 x well known BB shop muppets

      still a bit mickey mouse but like you say if you know what you want and they have it then it is worth a look.

      Most of their stuff is 2-tone as they mainly sell to newcomers

      but even then bought a few bits off them in the past and all good

      even a 2-tone non blowback m92 wasn't bad for £30 - 10% discount delivered.

      Despite the newbie beginner shop - good to support some local shops now n then I guess

       

      wouldn't catch me recommending JBBG

      highly highly unlikely to suggest BBGuns4Less

      But Only - aka iwholesales - same addy are ok out of the 3

       

      glad you got it sorted

  23. Dear Lord I can't believe I'm even considering it...but how are OnlyBBguns for delivery?

    I know; I wouldn't even think about using them normally; but they're the only place I can find what I'm after in stock, and the item itself is actually a decent product; is it worth it, or are they con-artists?

    Now excuse me whilst I shower the filth away.

      I am ordering G&G 0.25g BBS from them for a decent (the lowest) price I can find! (Ordering 5 bags) I think the postage is free and takes 3-4 days.

      Sitting Duck thanks a lot!!! The discount code works!

      Yep, worked for me too!

      One VZ58 RIS kit ordered!
      £58.49 delivered, as opposed to the £80 everywhere else has it advertised for! (Assuming they even have them in stock).

      Thanks very much, Mister Duck!

  24. I've used green/propane for the last ten years in TM pistols without problem.
  25. I'm not sure if anyone stocks them on their own. However, Ares is supposedly good for supplying spare parts if you contact them directly. Failing that, give OPs-7 in Sheffield a bell and ask for Sam; I've spoken to him in the past and he said they *might* be able to sort them; though I think they just contact Ares and get them off them; so speaking directly to them might be as easy.
