The 'What have you just bought' Thread
SgtTalbert replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Sorry yes, maybe I have confused you - I am just looking for the 'lever' to turn the entire 'tracer' unit on and off - not just 1 element. So if the lever does turn it on/off thats perfect for my needs -

Thanks for that, I note the 'Sixmm' website states it can be turned on/off by the lever on the PBS...but it seems to be the only site that states this, everywhere else says its auto on/off Sixmm JK Army -
The 'What have you just bought' Thread
SgtTalbert replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I've been looking at the PBS-1 - can you confirm if you can switch this on/off when you want to use it? I'm not a fan of the type that are 'on' and activate on movement, they always seem to drain quickly for me. Whereas my ASG and TM tracers are a simple on/off button which work very well. -
Silly question time, does anyone know where I can get this cable from or what its called? I know its a 3.5mm audio cable but I cannot find anything with 1 end '2 band' and the other '1 band'
-
Thank you. I did search for this, but can only find these type in the search results which have 2 bands per plug. To give some context, I am going from my MSA Sordins to Kenwood speaker mic. I already have one cable (came with the sordins) and wanting a spare. I've tried various 3.5mm to 3.5mm cables but I can only seem to hear and not transmit apart from with the cable that came with the sordins. Would it be the 'band' setup thats causing this?

I run similar but with peltor’s which has a bespoke 2 mono fork connector to mono.
might be easier to find a stereo to mono Jack, or find a local friendly stereo shop to whip one up. Or get the parts and soldering iron

Looks great, what AK and mags are these? Did the AK come like this or is this a lot of modifications? -
What's the "best" airsoft helmet at the moment?
SgtTalbert replied to Emergencychimps's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I've had good experience with my FMA Wendy, Maritime and Caiman helmet. However, I was going to suggest the PTS FLUX but if you still do not like that, I'm unsure outside of RS stuff. Maybe someone else can shed some light -

Comabting sweat/fog: exfog or sweatband? Or another solution?
SgtTalbert replied to Harvem's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I've not used them personally so can only go off 2nd hand information but I've heard these are good https://www.airsoftanonymous.co.uk/products/mask-solutions-anti-fog-full-face-mask also just the fan goggles can be found here - https://masksolutions.nl/product/anti-fog-goggle-never-any-fog/ -
Ouch - sounds painful. 29 or Barn area?

The TM SCAR-H magazine

The 'real' rifle is a H&K 416, lots of companies make a copy of it, less so with the geissele style rail. TM, VFC, CYMA, WE, EA, UMAREX (which I think is a VFC Rebrand) and G&G I would stay away from anything Nuprol. Not seen much EA stuff so cannot comment on it. I've owned the G&G 416 and it was good (to my standard anyway). I currently own the TM 416 (with the geissele rail) and like it.

I once posted on Reddit - see below....I still dont think I was in the wrong but either way, people (rightly or wrongly) will still have an opinion

Seeking opinions on the various "spitfire" tracer units available
SgtTalbert replied to Rogerborg's topic in General Help
I've had no real experience with the 'spit' style, however, I did use a friends on Saturday night and it was very cool (was attached to a Gas M4) looked good and worked well for the 10mins I was using it. No idea which is the 'best'. His was the 5KU version. -
airsoft things you don't understand
SgtTalbert replied to Adolf Hamster's topic in General Discussion
This thread does seem odd. Tbh as long as what other people do does not affect my weekend / game day then fill your boots. All I ask is you adhere to the rules and take your hits and im happy. Outside of that, if you wanna collect guns, patches, wear a hoody, run high caps, run low caps or whatever, its your hobby, if you're happy then who am I or anyone else to judge Edit - And in regards to the thread title (not that the comment was aimed at me but its currently a slow work day...) Why do we need to understand? If it makes the person happy doing X, Y or Z...then it shouldn't matter really -
airsoft things you don't understand
SgtTalbert replied to Adolf Hamster's topic in General Discussion
You will hate my patch wall then ! A lot of these I got for free, some from shot show and then yes, some specifically I purchased (Seal Team TV show ones etc..) -
tbh it wasnt too bad - it was quite overcast most of the weekend until Sunday where it did get rather warm
-

For me its both, I like the build quality, the recoil, the out the box performance. Ive had, AK102, CQBR, SCAR L, SCAR H, DELTA, AK47, MP7, really enjoyed them all. I've had plenty of other non TM brands which were great but I do like TM
-
I have a TMR and you can fit 2 x scar in the 'chest' pocket. the M4 sleeve is removable and I put in my own sleeves dependant on the rifle I'm using. Ive used AK, M4, MP7 and SCAR mag sleeves in mine

Please post under the classified section if you have things to sell

Thats exactly my point. you're now not serving and can be however big or small you like. My other point is 90% of airsofters tend to kit themselves up as special forces or at least some tier above standard military + normally they arent UK units, at least based on the MILSIMS or sites ive been to so even if someone was dressed to the nines as Seal team 6, the fact they are about 14 or 34 but with a massive beer gut hanging over their shooters belt, proves they couldnt walt even if they wanted to Having said all that, I've never worn unit patches or rank that are 'real'. I once got called out on Reddit for being being a walt because I had a glock photo with the SEAL Team TV show patch next to it....which blew my mind
-
Ive never served (outside of Air Cadet Special Forces) but to me, wearing unit patches is fine, non serving people do it for re-enactment so why is airsoft any different. For airsoft, wearing rank is odd to me as its got nothing to do with the loadout whereas correct gear and unit patches do. However, I will say, I dont get how people can Walt in airsoft as I'd say only 5% of airsofters even have the physique that could at a glance pass off as anything remotely in shape. Most are either overweight or a 12yr old bean pole.

Dual Pane Pyramex I-force Alternatives?
SgtTalbert replied to Lollingsgrad's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts

I will say that apart from putting stuff on the outside of my rifles, I wouldn't have a clue about doing anything internal and tbh, I have no 'want' to learn. I will always take my stuff to CAMO or Eagle6 to get fixed/upgraded. I will say if I ever did sell something that needed work, my thought process would be it would cost me more to get fixed which I wouldn't get back in the sale so would rather knock off an amount to get a quicker sale. Having said all that, I havent ever sold anything that isnt 100% working purely because I cant be dealing with potential after sale headaches
