  1. Guessing a normal motor would just go 'ah fuck this' and make a little click. Unfortunately, the warhead CNC black has other motives. (adjusted the grub screw a little, it keeps trying to shake itself out so loctite to the rescue on the next one, also was lucky enough to avoid any damage from what I can tell) Also ended up sorting out the hop issues we were having in the end, turns out having your unit overhop .32s with zero hop applied is not the most useful setup on planet earth
  2. Also second the notion of something Double Eagle flavoured with the Falcon Fire mosfet, they're class and pretty much unbeatable for the money unless you fancy fucking around and tinkering. My mate bought a M904E around two and a half years ago when we first started playing and it's sat as old reliable the entire time, never missed a beat and even survived me when I had no idea what I was doing (because turns out, buying epic upgraded G36s off used airsoft doesn't mean it'll work or be any good). If you think he'd fancy something a little more SMG shaped, the UTR-45 is another solid choice by Double Eagle and pretty much has the same internals, although the mags can be a little bothersome with regards to carrying as they're UMP flavoured and come with the quirks as such.
  3. I'm going to have to sell my left bollock for a non L6 WE Desert Eagle, aren't I?

      How does this site work? Do they take used pews and repair and resell them or something? What's the catch?

      (I was dead-set on a chrome non L6, but the black gives me MGS4 vibes so it might end up being the one)

      Yeah, they're Red Alert's on site shop that deals mostly with 2nd hand stuff. I have been there and seems decent. I think the owner is on here as well.

  4. If you set it to 'Manual' it'll come up with settings from 100% in 20% increments, just pop it down to 0% to turn it off. But yeah, the nozzle having a chunk missing might have something to do with the feeding issues you're having, if not I guess even asters are cursed now, not just titans
  5. I've had a chat with Luke over at negative airsoft about this and he's explained how even if the delivery van ran over a mine and exploded or if the driver got a change of heart and decided to take your pew and become a nomad in the woods they'd find a way to weasel out of the cover, it's just completely pointless and a waste of money really
  6. I love how 'Real Gas Blow Back' actually means something, because it's a MWS and actually works properly lol Now all you need is to grow a mass of curly hair and your RE3 Carlos loadout is complete
  7. I normally just smack the back of my head where the unit is until it stops making the revving noise lmao They fixed this in the V2 version by the way, it can take up to 2J before starting to deform which is a lot better than the previous 'we have a patch that covers it lol' solution they had
  8. Arrived today after enough fucking around with Parcelforce being useless as usual - I've done a complete 180 on the MPX style stock as suprisingly I absolutely love it! Got stuck right in & now it looks awesome, a little adjustment of the motor height to align it properly and it's now absolutely singing on 11.1v (fair warning, 7.4v & 9.9v aren't enough to drive the mosfet and will cause semi to become a three shot inconsistent burst and it sounds very unhappy) Absolutely made up with it. Massive thanks to everybody in this thread for putting me onto this thing & and I can't wait to field it! (after I get some batteries that fit the PEQ lol)
  9. Got my hands on a WELL WE-10-1 today (SIG MCX RATTLER), absolutely in love with the thing. For £180 it might just dethrone the DE UTR as the go-to choice for an awesome polymer bodied but extremely capable ready OOTB gun, thing is absolutely stonking on 11.1v (7.4v and 9.9v don't work properly though lol) Absolutely pisses & shits all over the 'Sig Air' VFC if you can get over the polymer body, and considering how nice it shoots I'm sure you can.
  10. EDIT: They completely ignored my email, packed it first thing in the morning while I was in work and couldn’t contact them and it arrives tomorrow. Maybe it’ll grow on me otherwise I’m losing a tenner to send the thing back to get the cool stock 🫠
  11. Just ordered one (the WELL MCX) from Bespoke tonight, hopefully it comes with the nice little trades on. Also ordered the sliding stock instead of the side folding one, so oops. Hopefully they can send me the other one instead because I've gotten in contact.
  12. Where'd you get it from? Interested in picking one up considering the price & does it have the SIG trades wherever you got it from?
  13. Fine rain is a bastard, piss wet through. Here's a lovely picture of me where I'm completely covered by a tree branch looking very tactical and "my boonie was ordered last minute and is completely the wrong colour" pilled: The hop unit that comes in the CYMA Plat. SLR Rifleworks AK is complete wank, by the way - .28s, .30s, .32s all either dribble out of the barrel or overhop completely. Tried three different rubber & nub combos, and a completely new barrel, but apart from that being extremely annoying it was a good time. Come to think of it, all AK hop units are apparently wank as my mate's recently built by Negative Airsoft LCT RPK is currently sending 0.32s to the moon with zero hop applied, which is a shame because he was really looking forward to using it. I just need to move to an M4 like everybody else..
  14. Anybody know what lower'll fit a VFC YHM M16A2 (AEG) upper? Have had one laying around for ages and want to build it into something but the YHM lowers are absolute unobtanium

  15. Yup bud, the SRC - it's just a TM clone with a metal slide & support for CO2 mags. It's really fun to shoot but the QC is a little iffy because the second one I got in for a friend doesn't reliably lock back (and the co2 mag's threads are made of cheese and got fucked the first time I tried putting a bulb in, so I just bought him a gas mag because I felt bad) I tried to return it but the retailer went 'nope it's your fault' because of the mag (which was my fault tbh) even though there's something actually wrong with the slide catch getting stuck and not locking back, so just be a little precious with it just in case you lose the QC lottery so you can return it properly lol Currently waiting on a H/I key & ML barrel to be back in stock on empire and I'll pop that in to see if it's a little more performant - the USP9 unfortunately doesn't get much love with regards to aftermarket and finding any info on them is a pain in the ass (which is why my poor VFC lays broken in a pistol case, zero info online about it apart from retailer listings of them)
  16. I'm guilty of this. I called my MP5 this when the solid stock and c-more arrived as I was wanking myself off furiously looking at it because it looked so cool
  17. THIS ADVERT IS 'UNCOMPLETED' - THIS MEANS THE ADVERTISER HASN'T BUMPED THIS LISTING, BUT IT COULD STILL BE WORTH CONTACTING THEM.

    • For sale
    • As new

    Cyre/G3 clone purchased from overseas the other year, didn't fit me too well and has sat packaged up since. UBACs style top fits like a medium or so (the arms are a little short on me personally): £15 G3 pants are around a 38"~ waist with a long leg: £15 Kneepads come in a larger and smaller flavour, as shown in the picture: £10 Will post as a full set for £25. Cheers.

    £25

  18. Pretty sure the Umarex USP Compact is OEM'd by KWA so it might feel a little different compared to the VFC. Mine didn't have the trigger-bar break but instead the valve knocker doesn't reset correctly so it just pisses all of the gas out when it strikes, alongside the mag release dying of death from repeated high intensity larping at home. Oopsies. VFC/Umarex also make a P8A1 if you're so inclined, which is practically the same but with a slightly different decocker design and different markings (bundeswehr spec, but otherwise exactly the same as the normal USP 9mm)
  19. The one in the picture is a SRC SR-SP, which is practically a TM USP clone with a metal slide & support for co2 magazines. QC is a little iffy on them but they have awesome blowback and feel awesome to shoot, although just like my other (now broken) USP9 it struggles a lot in colder weather. If you're keen on trades and want a better performer - the TM's a much better option but keep in mind it uses a plastic slide so if you'd want a metal one you'd have to track down a detonator or nova slide and have it fitted/fit it, and they're rare as hen's teeth & cost a fortune. The base TM is also a bit pricer than the other offers, and much much pricer if you're including the cost of a metal slide if you're so inclined. If you want a metal slide, decent-enough performance and the trades the Umarex (OEM'd by VFC) USP9 is a neat enough option and was what I was using before it shit the bed and stopped working, and considering there's zero information on in anywhere I couldn't fix it, hence why I ended up with the SRC. Second one down's the Umarex/VFC, top is the SRC. Also, a brand new WE P229 which I've just bought, which is lovely.
  20. anybody know a good place to pick up some M81 woodland? kinda miss the DPM NBC suit I used to wear when I first started but I'm over getting covered in shit because of the charcoal lining lol and a normal DPM set is a little beige for me

      If it looks cool I don't really mind tbh, kinda wanted a hooded smock and some decent pants without spending a million quid really

      "poolssurplus" had some M81 on clearance a little while back, think there was some hooded jackets too 👀

      Military 1st had trousers on sale a few weeks back, and I think that's where I got my shirt from as well.

  21. The guy(s) she tells you not to worry about & for a bit of brevity [because it feels like I keep posting the same images] my mate's LCT RPK-74: (yes, it's the one from the video & yes, after waiting on the list for a few months on Monday he found out it was completely fucked on the inside after Luke took a look at it which ended up with a new LCT casing, new mosfet, gears etc so it cost a fortune lol)
  22. My friend's had his SSR4 since we both started airsoft over two years ago and it's never missed a beat - pretty sure he's never even cleaned the thing (I've offered lol) and it just troopers on while sounding decent & shooting with good range, so for the price & white glove aftercare you can't really go wrong, esp. with the new version two of it coming out like you've mentioned
  23. 100% agree - you're paying for the white glove service and bragging rights more than anything. I've tried one of the bolster ARs when somebody had one at our site and they're fucking awesome and all but not £1399 awesome at the end of the day. If money's no object (which it doesn't look like, considering they're looking at expensive pre-builts) I'd suggest they either look into a 'custom' pre-built sourced from the UK (bolster, DCA do them iirc and a few other places) that has a warranty so they don't have to worry, or just pony-up and buy a few decent pews & send them off to a decent tech to get done instead if they're chasing high end performance & parts [which doesn't always mean better!]
