good to know that! I got it broken, hahahaha the person who was using it decided to use it as f... walking stick, put the barrel between rocks and forgot, then pulled out without paying attention and broke the tip of the inner and outer barrel together... isn't it there where we attach silencers/tracer units?

Hmmm... Thanks for that... I will have that in mind. So is it correct to say that with the rails being shorter that the outer barrel will be more exposed than one with a longer rail? And by how the outer barrel connects, do you mean the thread OR literally how it fits on the gun? Would a https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/5ku-7-aluminium-outer-barrel-for-m4-ar-15-aeg be a good fit (except for the part where you say you don't know how it connects) Or this one... https://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/product/laylax-first-factory-carbon-outer-barrel-7-inch-213400 It says it fits a standard M4

I've got a VALKEN BATLLE MACHINE TCC series which requires a new inner barrel and outer barrel. (I'd enjoy this opportunity to buy something better than stock for inner barrel and hop up). However due to different sizes and not being able to all description for the gun I'm unsure what size exactly I need to buy. I could only find out on this website: https://www.airsoftgi.com/product/Valken-Battle-Machine-TTC-M4-Carbine-AEG-Airsoft-Rifle-Tan-21971/ that it is 14mm but I'm unsure on the length and because is broken I can no longer measure the real one. Any tips or help on what I need to get?

So I took to a friend of mine who is handy with RC toy cars and for some reason he manage to fix. My idea is that when putting the motor in, something was making it stuck and wouldn't run. Although I am sure that I've tried it out and didn't work.... Well, it's all good and running now

Yeah, no way i can mix that up... red with red, black on black...

Hello all! I have recently acquired a G&G M4 30th Anniversary from a friend and after many faffing around with the gearbox (as it was just not working) I have decided to buy another one so I bought a v2 from CYMA which included a motor. I've set it up today and was trying to find what would be the best height for the motor and it just stopped working. I've tried to put the height all the way down, to open bring it out and in again but it didn't work. It doesn't seemed that it's jammed as I can push the spring easily and also push the piston in and it will pop back as normal. There is energy going through from a 9.6v 1600mah battery as it heats up the cables and the battery as well.(To which I am slightly concerned about but maybe to the fact that the motor is not running might be normal). Before taking to a professional place so they can take a look I was wondering if there's anything I can do myself? There's no mosfet.

Nice one bro! Where are you from? (as in where you came from to uk) I'm in west london but perhaps we could meet at least once a month and play together somewhere

They do seem to be “strict” enough to me… some people are even being told off today haha so i think it did change

Well, I only played there once and going for the second time now... It was great, lots of marshalls, food included in the price and etc... very difficult terrain though but it makes it fun I guess...

Anyone here playing this Saturday at Skirmish High Wycombe?

there is some around that area, Surrey... when you move we could all meet and play together I am in West Drayton

So basically they are resellers.... I've access https://www.jiadyi.com/brands and you can see 60+ different brands it just doesnt state how to buy on the website...

Oh, interesting! Good to know that there is a range of different things to do and not just pew pew each other hahahaha

how often do you guys play? do you guys have like a team that is always playing together or you just turn up and that's it?

Yeah, shouldnt be a problem... I shall take a look at the discussion about equipment and etc... A very noobie question... why there is such a difference in price? What makes the difference so the price goes up? (apart from brand)

You guys are fantastic in this forum! Thank you all! I was thinking about https://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/huntsman-m4-cqbr-polymer-body-full-metal-gearbox-inc-bat-and-charger-h060b to start with a scope... Should be enough for the start, no? And yeah I will book one with rental equipment first to try out

Another question... I'm looking to get a M4 with extra mags and also looking to get BB pellets but there are different grams of them... any magazine will do any weight?

Ah, cool... I might go for a two tone in the beginning and if I think I need to paint then I know who/where to go to do it for me... but if I feel I need to disguise it I can always try to do a ghillie suit for the gun hahahaha

do you go to bunker 51 or do you use any other option? I will be ok to go there and maybe even drag my brother into it 😂

Lots and lots of tips.. thank you very much guys! One question... when you say not to buy two toned guns is just because of the colours or there is something else? I shall start looking at High Wycombe Skirmishes then with Cobham, UCAP and Bunker 51 as other options too. Good to know all that! And so far we have hat eye pro something to cover the mouth gloves rifle with extra mags and potentially a scope charger and bb's f... me hahahaha

i am in West Drayton (close to heathrow) are you in london as well? . . , . Amazing tips, guys! Thank you! is that one in cobham, surrey still open? Ive messaged them but no reply so far… anything in particular that I should look for when buying my first pistol/rifle?

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well! I am finally decided to start this new hobby after many years wondering... Where do I start? Do I buy a gun straight away or do I play first? Also, is there any teams or regular airsoft plays in/around London I could join? Is there small competitions and things like that? Not sure yet if I should buy an aeg Pistol or Rifle and what would be the ''minimum'' required for the first ''battle''... Thanks in advance!
