Compared to BB bastards Green Devils are actually pretty reasonable price wise. As for the cost of shipping... they're heavy and most people buy in serious bulk anyway.

Ironfoot.co.uk are the UK distributors, the site looks a little bit 'cottage industry' but they're one of the founding members of UKARA, as well as sitting on the board!

Having played with gen1 I can honestly say that you're better off with your eyes 99% of the time. That pvs14-alike on aliexpress is actually a small tv camera hooked up to some fairly shonky plastic lenses and a large array of IR LEDs, a guy on UKAZ had one and he claimed the field of view was about 10 degrees and it was about 1.5x magnified. A proper set of gen1 (with an actual intensifier tube) will set you back a few hundred quid, but you're genuinely better off with your eyes and a half decent torch. For a gen2 monocular you're looking at £1,000+ and while they're usable, you can pick up a second hand gen3 monocular for £1,500 ish. From bitter experience i can say that with night vision kit it's very much a case of buy nice or buy twice.

Green devil bios are genuinely the best thing going, better than bastards.

Needs a crush washer.

Yeah, if I had a semi only AEG if definitely put an 11.1v (maybe even 14.8 if I had room) in there, you want the gearbox to cycle fast! Make sure you get an active braking mosfet though or you might end up 'double firing' sometimes.

ASG Blasters are fine, failing that Green Devil Bio are a bit more expensive but the best BBs I have used.

Yeah, needs a bit of work but the price he was asking and the amount of stuff... Couldn't really say no!

got a new hat today. China clone of a crye airframe, Ops core H-nape Peltor Comtac ACH dual comms on peltor rail adapters (need to switch the adapters out for crye ones) Norotos universal shroud ACR MS2000 strobe velcro'd to the back (also needs swapping out for a helstar 5) Gotta get a cover for it and some decent pads, but I'm pretty happy with the way it looks, so much more comfortable than the MICH2002!

I don't understand why people need torches with more than on/off honestly! Everyone just puts them on their brightest setting anyway, except for the idiots who think that strobes somehow give them an advantage.

southwest wargames haven't traded for about 2 years now mate!

airsoft world do them I think.

only critique/advice I can offer is to replace the dummy garmin with a real one, broken ones can be had for cheap!

really? $114 for a made in china flashlight from a no-name company that has a website full of typos? what have you been smoking, because I want some!

customs definitely check by UKARA number, when I imported my last gun the retailer had got a digit wrong in my number and customs sent me a letter asking for clarification on what my number was!

You can use any weight of BB you want in game, but chrono will almost always be done with .20. I recommend using .25 or heavier as the benefit to accuracy is significant.

MREs are rank.

Looks bloody sharp, like it!

indeed, a small CPC will fit, but it'll set you back £700... likewise an emerson JPC would also fit and probably cost less than £50.

yes, wilco (abbreviation of will comply) is used, often in combination with roger i.e. callsign this is call sign roger, wilco, out.

The rotating barrel of blanks built into the grenade so you don't need to faff about re-priming it in game, absolute genius, could be done fairly simply for an impact design too. For a timed grenade it'd be a much bigger challenge though.

Just get your ukara number put on the outside of the box, it'll be charged VAT and duty but it'll still work out cheaper than airsoft world would have done it.

Now THAT is bloody genius.

reasonably cheap, free shipping too: http://www.airsoftpeak.com/night-evolution-tactical-flashlight-black-ne04003-p-13712.html

yeah, I'd remove the barrel entirely from the hop unit. It'll take some force to get it to come out of the hop initially but steady application of pressure will get it loose, trying to shock it will likely break the hop unit!
