Had an absolute howler of a day today unfortunately - my new to me Altbergs gave my feet agony [or it could've been the fact they were frozen solid, couldn't have helped!], had general gear mishaps all day with my radio pouch being way too small for my new UV-5RH so it'd just keep pressing the PTT button and changing random settings while it was in the pouch during play, my HW EXPS3 decided to detach itself mid-firefight which lead to a extremely fun easter egg hunt for it & to top it all off the coveted WELL WE-10 MCX rattler that was an absolute darling at first for me and plenty of other people decided to rear it's ugly £180 head... So yeah, unfortunately not the best. Will have to look into getting 'another m4 like that actually works' seeing as the MCX shit the bed, or I now need to put the 'this needs a perun hybrid to unfuck it' tally up to three now. Joy

£550 upgraded. I know what I got. No time Wasters

Nothing makes friends quicker than going 'oooh I like your gun, what is it?' and then watching their eyes light up as they autistically explain the intricacies of a 10.3" MK18 and the foundations of the CQBR concept, it's great. We're all very stupid and that's what makes the sport great. We're all absolute plonkers spending god's Sunday running around the mud shooting smoothbore plastic chinesium sewing machines at eachother, so might as well enjoy it in good company!

My Nov unit with my new '100% real' aliexpress M32s is pretty audible but not to the point where I can't hear anything else. Would have to directly compare to an ExFog unit to know for sure, though - and it's not like I've got the best setup regardless (it's on a exfog headband, and it was the first time running earpro ever so my setup was all over the place) No idea about the aliexpress fog units however, but considering the price of them it might end up being a valid choice if you're not running sound amplification/reduction, exactly like you said.

Meanwhile I take my stuff out to give it a once over after like 2 months of not using and somehow everything's exploded, set on fire, sold itself on prefired for 30% of what it's worth and exploded again. Lucky for some I guess

CYMA platinum M4s have always kicked ass, no idea they were doing Noveske stuff. Cool pew!

I personally use the ExFog headbad underneath my boonie with the Novritsch unit, as I couldn't get it to sit right via velcro and it kept doing weird things. Haven't ever had a problem with the lines, even if they're very soft and kink easily they still provide plenty of air to the magnetic T-connector in the middle of the goggle. On Sunday's game just went it was the first time wearing earpro and even with them pressing down on the lines I didn't fog at all, but if you're worried about line kinking being a problem you can always measure the inside of the rubber tube and get hollow spring tube that's just smaller to route inside to stop it from bending as easy while still being flexible enough in a pinch.

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

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.

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

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

Oh dear! Absolutely hate it when that happens..

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

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

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)

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.

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 🫠

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.

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?

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..

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)
