When I said about getting a grippod for £40 I meant a real one, I don't buy knockoff airsoft stuff when the real thing is affordable.

I think as cavninja said, it's not what you wear, it's how you act when you wear it. Wear what you want, just don't be that guy who claims to be something they're not

Woah woah woah... you spent $150 on a grip pod?! you're aware you can pick them up NEW for like £40? Looks like you're strapping a lot of money onto a really quite cheap gun. Remember, you can't polish a turd, but you can roll it in glitter.

Shine a bright torch down range as you're firing, should light up the BBs a bit.

Definitely no NPAS for the G&G GBBRs, they use drop-in GHK kits. I expect the easiest way would be with a wide bore barrel, since opening the gun up to fiddle with the blow back unit / nozzle would be a massive pain in the ass.

You don't. There's no way you can know what the BBs are going to do at the end of their flight without observing it.

Yes we can, that's the whole point of the standard existing.

why don't you try reading their manifesto instead of other people's opinions on facebook.

Since the standard requires that it can withstand the impacts indefinitely, why would personal testing be required?

I'm going to disagree and say DO NOT test your eyepro! All you're doing is weakening it, buy eyepro with the appropriate safety rating and trust that the testing has already been done. That's why lenses come with the markings and why the safety ratings exist. You don't test a bullet proof vest by putting it on and having your mate shoot you, you don't test a crash helmet by getting run over at 40mph!

I'd have no issue with wearing lenses of those shape/size, providing they were rated for impact (those clearly weren't). I've only ever ONCE had a BB get inside my glasses and that was because I was wearing a mesh lower and the BB ricocheted off the top of it and under my eyepro. As for teeth protection, who knows, maybe he uses a gumshield and he'd taken it out for the photo?

that's taking the piss a bit with 2-tone! Looks like a nice gun though

you shouldn't have to 'test' your eyepro. If you buy EN166f (ideally EN166b) glasses/goggles you know they'll work, furthermore, impact lenses are designed to absorb a limited amount of impacts. You don't test a crash helmet by throwing it at the floor, so why would you test eye protection by shooting it?

looks like a sexed up TAR21, I kinda like it, should be able to fit a MASSIVE battery in that foregrip too.

that delta strike barrel is going to put your FPS through the floor with an M100 spring, there's absolutely nothing wrong with the stock barrel.

is that because every house has a rifle in it or because every man in Austria has had to do national service and has had some values drilled into them?

not only that, you're missing a couple of really important bits... like the laylax wrench to remove the buffer tube castle nut, without the right tools to take it to bits you won't be able to fit any of those parts.

99% of that is completely unnecessary, all you need is an Eagle 6 M100 / M95 spring, or a prometheus spring guide and a tightbore barrel. Siegetek gears are arguably the best gears available for a DMR build as they're really hard, they've also got a massive ratio which is great for pulling big springs. What they'll do in your gun though is slow the trigger response down and require a couple of hours reshimming. If you're not upgrading the spring, there's no point upgrading ANY part of the drive train, looks to me like you went onto Eagle6 and just picked the most expensive parts.

no, you can defend yourself with reasonable force, you cannot defend property with reasonable force.

WE don't make a HK417.

the VFC 417 is supposed to be really good, know a few guys who have been running them over the winter and are quite impressed. Asia editions are normally MORE powerful than the EU editions, the VFC 417 asia edition for example is ~400fps on propane, while the EU edition is more like 300fps.

yeah, rather than building a Mk12 I'd recommend buying one, as I said, G&P do a very good one.

Cable ties aren't as strong as you think, guarantee you'll snap one if you try and use it as a sling loop. I found reef knots worked loose (no tension to keep them together most of the time) so I just tied an overhand knot using both ends of the paracord as one piece, so far that's held up for about 18 months

who knows, Frank works in mysterious ways!

of those three, the only one I'd recommend is classic army. dboys and cyma make mostly junk, with a few exceptions.
