  1. I honestly thought the physical business would have gone by now, pretty shocked it's even still clinging on at all being that far in to London. First gun I bought for myself was from there in 06, took the train one evening after work when they had a late opening. Box thoroughly wrapped up in opaque plastic bags and nobody cared, but felt very paranoid on that trip home. Of course just my luck there had been some sort of incident at the station where I got off so a few of the fuzz floating around, to just to make teenage me extra tense.
  2. When I went a couple of months back the bloke running the evening told me something like 16-18 cap, but if they do allow 30.. can't imagine it'd play very well, very choked up and over-contested. Maybe they have some sort of player-rotation/tag-in type modes setup to alleviate it though, not sure. The positive aspects for me were close location, great parking, runs most days including weekday evenings and entirely indoor so during proper winter it was just a lot less effort to play compared to packing all the layers etc for a woodland game. I'd say HC2 is better for CQB play (though I've not been in many years), just based on the multiple lanes despite the base square footage probably being similar. But I'd say P13 is worth a go one time at the least if you're around those parts and want close up pew-ing.
  3. Not sure about others, but what I personally see is that the smaller the indoor site the higher number of PPPs (Proton Pack Players) you'll get. Precinct 13 is pretty tiny, when I went they said they limit to about 16 max and even that is too much and it gets stalemate'y. Which I could fully believe because there's only a single lane you can move down, you can't get through between the shops in the backs, only via the main concourse. They've put in about as many wooden structures as they can which makes it viable and overall not bad with small enough numbers but I'm not sure I'd go on a Friday night/weekend.
  4. Far as I know PTS don't own any factory space. The original Masadas were Ares, probably the PDRs, possibly even the original FPGs though that one's chinese whispers. Various AEGs and GBBRs by KWA over the year, other AEGs by CYMA more recently.. list goes on. No idea about the various plastic accessories or handguards etc etc, they might be from entirely nameless factories that airsofters have never heard of. Most brand names we see down the end of the road at the actual retailers do this to at least some extent, if not entirely in some cases.
  5. I really thought there'd be an airsoft HK433 by now.

      Really? Whatever made you think a cool niche weapon would beat out yet another M4 with a shit stock as the next hot thing?

      Could it be too early in production for an airsoft manufacturer to take an interest in doing a replica?


      Are there any films or video games with the gun past a prototype?

      @Galvatron it's been around for quite a few years and iirc was the first assault rifle you got in MW2019 inc WarZone, not sure which version was exactly featured but it looks as similar to current production real ones as any CoD fictional rifle does that's based on a real gun.

  6. I won't stand for any of this *checks notes* ..actually having an understanding of how this business work and operates.
  7. My previous FirstSpear Strandhogg, bare vs loaded.
  8. ShooterCombatGear got themselves in to gear, eventually. If the guts of my current M4A1 fit neatly and easily in to this 7075 receiver set I'll repent all sins and become a monk.
  9. You're pretty on the money with that map mate, yeah. If there's another clear lane in the west I didn't even see it and I had no idea there's playable area south of the stream as well lol. Though all the objectives for every game that day were very much clustered in the yellow area with not much to be gained from a long flank around the really dense bits of the woods (far as I could tell anyway). I'll take the hit on this one guys, I took an interest in playing after many years, which with my luck means the entire site gets closed down right before I go to try and book on.
  10. I've been there myself.. the horrors 😭
  11. Tried sixmm.. they wouldn't ever send an order out until being e-mailed multiple times after already waiting 10 days+. Gave up on them, saw some stuff on Shooters Combat Gear that wasn't available elsewhere, order sat unmoving for a week, e-mail, 'it'll dispatch tomorrow', that was a week ago. I'm sticking with WGC in future I reckon.

      While WGC are usually really good, i recently made an order that took over a week before it was picked/packed/dispatched despite everything showing as in stock. Not really an issue and nothing urgent, but still kinda slow.

       

      AliExpress i've only had good experience with.

      Looks like staffing shortages aren't exclusive to the MoD or NHS.

      @AnonymooseWGC (along with a lot of the asia retailers) ship out only on specific days, i think theirs is a Tuesday, hence the delay

  12. I just posted ads on Prefired and Airsofthub last week for the first time in many years, got a few e-mails with very similar wording essentially trying the exact same thing. If you're new to/not familiar with the site in question they can be somewhat convincing, and they English was actually correct in the e-mails I received. Of course the message coming in the wrapper of a normal DM is the main giveaway but I wouldn't blame people for falling for it if they're new to a given site. I'd say I'm surprised at these scammers becoming so active on niche little airsoft sites within the last year or so, but I'm sure it's happening in all hobbies and areas of interest where folks commonly do online buying and selling.
