Played another half day today and actually managed nearly all of it! There was only12 of us with 4 or 5 first timers but it was a really good day. They first timers were all young teenagers so it took them the 1st game to realise that it doesn't hurt when you get shot. Standard attack/defend games were played and by the time I had had enough there were some very good tactical manoeuvres emerging with fantastic comms being shouted. Pics below . . . That's my eldest daughter. Another proud father moment.

Hi Dell, 1973 is a very good vintage. 😁

Definitely needa full build thread of its own. 😁

I was talking to a guy who said his wife is an angel. You're lucky I said, mine's still alive!

Dropped of of my mags and broke the feed lip. I've ordered a couple of spares but I found a file on Thingiverse - here - so printed one. It fits and feeds ok but the pusher doesn't go up fully to hold open the slide on mag empty. I'll give it a little fettle and see how it goes.

I know I've been off work, and immobile, for a few monrhs but why did no one tell how fat I've become! 😪

In a word, or 2, bloody brilliant! I only booked in for a half day, due to my still broken but getting better leg, and I stuck it out for a couple of hours but i loved every second of it. I had everyrhing ready to go, batteries charged, mags gassed and when i got to site I realised that I'd left the bag of batteries at home! Knobber! Luckily the guy setting up next to me had a spare, otherwise it would have ben a pistol day! Not many shots were fired and i dont think I i got anyone but it was nice to be out. There was a photographer taking shots (pictures) for their website too. If he got any decent ones of me, you'll all see them on here! Lol

I cant quite make it out but if it's a Torx, you could try the next size up and hammer it into the head. Or get a flat head screwdriver thats the ssme width as the outer part of the points. Or use a small punch and drift it around.

I think some one, who shall remain nameless, has complained about postage so much that it's affected the websites inner workings! 😂😂

I found that one but their own website is dead so I didn't look any further. I didn't see that one, ta.

Back in the good old days (early 90s) I used to shoot practical pistol, real guns, shooting through and around set obstacles. More recently (late 10s) I dabbled with practical shotgun and 3Gun. Same thing, following a course of fire, shooting around or through set obstacles against a timer with penalties for missed targets etc. So, so much fun. I see that there is a company darn sarf that does an airsoft version but I cant find anything national. Is there a national association, league or anything? If not, why? Has it been tried and failed or just not something that's been tried?

I am.

Im off work with a broken leg, ive got nothing else to do bit moan! 😁

There's others? 😳

I should have specified, an airsoft forum patch.

How do you know its a scammer? If it is then he needs the shit kicking out of him but if its genuine, and we tar and feather it, we could be doing him out of some much needed funds.

done . . .

There is no reason not to buy yourself an MP5!

On the listing it's proudly promoted as being a small/medium business based in the UK. It clearly says "Made in Taiwan" on the case and the .co.uk website on the lable is dead. Probably someone just dropshipping and using the manufacturer's sales materials.

yes but no but yes but no! It's the actual name of the product, https://www.amazon.co.uk/Airsoft-Valve-Key-Universal-Radiator/dp/B09FJHQ6P3/ref=sr_1_3?crid=O9LHV4213TGI&keywords=dropee&qid=1706461905&sprefix=dropee%2Caps%2C88&sr=8-3

I've been very bored today, so have been playing around with some free video editing software.
