Bloody good shout mate. Only put about 40 shots through it as a quick test but fed without fault. Ta.

Funnily enough i got my first one off Facebook marketplace for £30 because it had been left ourside and was a bit wet and dirty. Second one was £58 off ebay but £20 postage. Still a bit of a bargain though.

Great is good, I'm sure that we are all glad you enjoyed it but would you care to elaborate? Lol

Ill be rereading the display your guns thread for some inspiration.

Ooh, now that is nice. I'm sort of lucky that i only have 4 pews, for now, and dont really have anywhere to keep them in the house so putting thw3m in cases where i can then stash them out of the way makes sense. I do, as of Saturday, have a spare bedroom so I think that might become 'The Gun Room' with them on display. Then i can add more. 😁

I don't see the reasoning behind your logic! What's need got to do with it? This is Airsoft, it's ALL about want!

I did! lol

Bought off here, arrived today, modelled by me to show @sofieb 😁 Oh, it's a Warrior Elite 901.

I've not played a lot but the evening game I had on Monday was brilliant. Indoor, so not affected by weather, long enough to build up a sweat but not too long that it ruins my old muscles(yes, i know I tapped out early but im still broken!). Just wish there was something closer than an hours drive.

Funnily enough, I've called my new M4 Vera! lol

Not sure if there's any real difference between isopropanol alcohol and isopropyl acetate but cleans like a good'un.

I was going to ask the same thing.

Yes.

I've had a play with positions but am going with a, very slight, variation of the original layout. The MP5 is a heavy old beast and putting them in together would make the whole thing a bit too . . . heavy!

One of us is a mind reader!

I've already swapped the acog for a red dot that is roughly the same width as the pew. The bottom foam comes in layers so I I can make it fit, underneath, quite snug and the top wave foam will compress against it.

How does this look? Any thoughts? Do? Don'ts? The hole that the M4 mags are in was already there. It had the foam in it but it was already cut.

There's one on its way. 👍

I'll have a look at the PTS EPMs as i couldnt stand the piss taking of telling you all they didnt work! 🤣

The mag well already has a velvro patch on it so the mags sit very snuggly. They do need a firm push to seat properly. I did take take it out and reinsert with a little more force to male sure it was seated properly but made no difference. I'll try your tip though as i really would prefer using midcaps.

In case anyones interested.

Just got back from an evening game at Top Secret (link here), a spacious indoor CQB site in Oldham, Manchester. It was a good 90 odd minute drive for eldest daughter ( @sofieb ) and I but it was well worth it. The site occupies the whole top floor of a former spinning mill that was first opened in 1862. As such, the fabric of the building is starting to show its age. In the game zone there was a central area made of a circle of 6, or maybe 8, big green surplus tents and plenty of wooden structures taking up the rest of the large floor area. There's a maze, of sorts, and lots of walls and doorways. There are a couple of spacious open areas too with lots of cover to get dug in. Over all, it looks like some money has been spent on the initial build and subsequent upkeep. It wasn't shabby or rundown, looks like someone really keeps on top of it. The safe area is big with plenty of table top space and a reasonably well stocked shop too. Shame it's on the top floor as there's far too many stairs when you are carrying equipment. There is a lift but its very old and it's not recommended that you use it! The staff were all friendly and the safety briefing was adequate. As a site, they don't allow BBs over .28g though, which I found strange but thems their rules! First game was a team death match. Apparently if you've played Call of Duty, you'll know what it all about but I'm old and have never been a gamer! Luckily one one of the youths, and by youth I just mean someone younger than me, told me that you go and shoot as many people as you can with constant respawns. In each spawn point there was an electronic counter that you hit every time you get shot and the team with the lowest number win after a 20 minute game. First game my team won and I've no idea who won the second when we swopped ends. The 3rd game involved a VIP who could shoot back and you had to get him somewhere but I let the others take care of the objective and I provided support fire from various flanking positions. Even got a kill with my P226. That made me very happy. Unfortunately, after the 3rd game my leg got the better of me and I tapped out. It was aching a lot before wee even got there so I think I did really well, moving with purpose and even managed a couple of half hearted runs. My G&G rifle was lovely but the G&G branded midcaps were bloody useless! Just wouldn't feed. The M series high cap that it came with was fine, so I'll get another one or two of those. I only used one tonight as after each round it got refilled in the safe zone as it was so close. I spent a few minutes in the game area before playing commenced to try zero in my acog but there's something not right. When you watch the BB leave the barrel it has a reasonably flat trajectory but watching it through the acog it just seems to fly up, as if the sight is pointing downward. I'll swap it for a red dot as the lens does have a crack in it, so maybe there's more damage inside. So, overall, it was a really good night at a well run site that we will definitely go back to.

I kept on looking at Ospreys but wasnt,aren't sure of what i want in a load out. Ive a Warrior Elite chest rig coming this week. Id love to say that if i dont like it I'll sell it but isnt it right that whoever does with the most toys wins? Try selling it on here first. 😉😉
