      I usually find, the cheaper the PSU, the more likely it is to spike and wipe out the HDD too. That's why I have a Corsair HX1050....

      Like Lozart says: If your PSU goes then it usually takes at least the motherboard with it.

       

      Might just be heat though. Clean them fans and radiators yearly, people. And don't use generic case fans (with a few exceptions) unless you like poor air flow.

  2. Just about packed for F&O tomorrow. Bring & buy sale to boot. :D

  3. Urgh. 15 year olds trying to buy my RIFs. >:(

      I kind of feel a bit bad now; the kid got banned from the groups...oh dear how sad, never mind.

      First, be smart from the very beginning. Pulverize all teeth, burn off fingerprints, and disfigure the face. Forcing a DNA test to establish identity (if it ever comes to that) might introduce the legal/forensic hurdle that saves your ass down the line. An unidentifiable body can, in a pinch, be dressed in thrift store clothes and dropped in a bad part of town where the police are less likely to question it. I don't reommend that disposal method, I'm just saying an easily identifiable...

      Bury the body parts at least 2m underground, vertically, with a dead fox or something equivalent at least 2 feet above the body. Satellites use ground penetrating radar to look for 5-6ft horizontal shallow holes in the ground. And the fox is for if a police dog finds the body; investigators will find the animal and assume that's what the dog smelt (dogs are trained to find buried bodies, whatever the species)

  4. We got to play with tanks last night. :D 1:15 for the fun part:

  5. Are replacement parts for the Echo 1 Vintorez available anywhere?

      If you can find out the company who actually made it, probably.

      Well the E1 and AY seem to the be the same model, from what I can tell.

  6. Picked myself up a Vintorez today. :D

  7. I'm looking at giving some .30 ammo a try for general AEG usage; are there any new-ish brands out that are worth a look before I go for some blasters?

  8. First visit to Proving Grounds today. Was okay; but I won't be hurrying back anytime soon.

  9. 4 AKs is enough for Sunday...right? Or should I pack one moire, just in case?

      It was a satirical post fella...

      I've been doing this 19 years; just don't usually take so many of one type is all! ;)

      seen one poor guy go through 3 guns in one day - no I didn't touch them, so 4 might just be ok at a scrape

  10. First visit to Proving Grounds this weekend!

  11. G3 Midcaps; are they still a thing anywhere? All the places I've looked so far have been sold out for donkeys years.

  12. Off to the Northern Shooting Show today!

  13. It's Bring & Buy day at Otley this Sunday. I'd best gathe up some of the AEGs I don't mind selling!

    1. cropzy

      Whereabouts in Otley?

    2. Hudson

      Hudson

      Well it's Khe Sahn; the F&O site there to be specific, but Just to calling it F&O Otley.

       

      They run a bring and buy sale on the first game day of each month during the lunch hour.

      *just used

  14. Then it was likely you! Welcome back, either way!
  15. Ahh, Mister Mood. I do vaguely remember you, I think. Were you on the #airsoft IRC channel regularly?
  16. They have for me so far, but what do you have to lose?
  17. Contact the site with whom they have their membership, give them their name & number and go.
  18. Probably not; just try the old unit and see how it goes first. You may be able to get one that has a better air seal, but you'll be as well off seeing how the old one works first.
  19. Not usable in it's standard state; it comes in at over 600fps! Probably as well off switching it out to either Spring or HPA. The CO2 gives around 40-50 shots I'd reckon; with a noticeable drop-off towards the end and poor consistency. Avoid unless you're looking for a base gun for a project.
  20. Anybody else had problems getting a Pro-Win M4 hop unit to fit? It won't go by about 1 or 2mm; I'm presuming due to the flat shape of the top section, as opposed to the slanted shape of normal hop units, perhaps?

      The army one is compatible.

      I think the problem in yours is that your outer barrel "chamber" is too short and that's why the prowin doesn't fit.

      I'll give that a check and see. Cheers!

  21. Gorka and Digi-Flora arrived!

  22. Where in North Yorkshire, and what needs doing?
  23. An M16 mag? First of all; give it a dose of percussive maintenance against something solid (yes, seriously). Sometimes things can just get stuck and need a good whack to free things up. If that doesn't help, look at the bottom of the mag & undo the screw there. You should then be able to just pull the inside of the magazine out through the top; you *may* need to push the two little tabs each side of it near the top in to do so, but it should just slide straight out. Then it's just a case of manually spinning the gears inside to see what the problem is; usually when a hi-cap stops feeding for me, you'll be turning the main wheel and see the small brass gear won't be spinning; or will only be spinning occasionally. Fixing it may need you to take the insides apart completely; but we'll come to that later.
  24. How long ago last year were you playing, and was it at the same site as you are playing at now? If they were less than 12 months ago; you may be able to use one of them as your three games and be eligible already!
