I'll get back to you on this one tonight, lots of good shit happens milsim wise over here!

I too use 7.4v lipo :-)

Fogtech wipes, best thing I've tried.

Yep, I have the turbofan version that I use for CQB and they're excellent. Very comfortable :-)

Only exception to that really is CQB where engagement distances are 30-40' and there's no wind. In that environment a .20 is largely similar to a .25 in performance but cheaper.

Never use anything lighter than .25g, regardless of the FPS of your gun.

130m is still not 450' though, that and using .66g BBs doesn't really count. I could send a 5g steel BB a kilometre if I wanted to!

I say again. Bullshit. No amount of tarting up or increasing power will enable you to send an airsoft BB 450'. The faster a BB goes the more wind resistance affects it, the only way to overcome that is to have heavier BBs. Whoever claims to have done it is talking shit.

Regardless of the amount of tarting up 450' just can't be done with a 6mm bb that weighs less than 0.5g.

Saying that though, lots of high speed SF types do run magnified optics on 10" guns, the Elcan Spectre DR is legit for the block 2 SOPMOD kit. They're bloody heavy mind!

http://mackila.com/airsoft/atp/08-a-01.htm#H The theoretical maximum distance you could reasonably get based on that is 300', that's with a 3.35j gun (600 fps with a .20) and it requires a 6' holdover! In short, 450' is bullshit.

Magnified optics on a CQBR?! Heresy.

No it really isn't.

Hahaha, 450'!

Looking sharp! Not a fan of the backup sights though.

FYI surefire flashlights are 100% manufactured in the USA. One of the many reasons they're so bloody expensive!

She's a beaut! Good choice on the EOTech 553 too, SOPMOD Block 2 legit :-)

Bear in mind that 99% of aftermarket 'upgrades' are really just budget parts which probably aren't as good as the ones in the gun already. If you end up finding that your gun has a significant deficiency in one field then you can address that, but if you do the standard newbie scattergun approach of chucking parts at a gun you'll end up with a gun that shoots WORSE than it did when you got it!

wow, the chinese sink to a new low by cloning a product where 100% of the profit went to charity.

The replica tourniquet is obviously just a bit of dress up kit, if someone's got an arterial bleed then using a replica on them is probably better than nothing... but still not really appropriate, belt or sling would be better Current doctrine is 2" above the wound, or above the joint if there's one in between. If you can't tell where the wound is, or the trauma is so significant the artery could be smashed up inside, go to the base of the limb, couple of inches below the groin or armpit (though this will be less effective at stopping the bleeding and carries greater risk of unnecessary damage to the limb). Fit the tourniquet, wind on the windlass til the patient stops leaking and mark it with the time of application. Haemostatic agents then get deployed en masse to to block up any residual bleed since even the tightest tourniquet isn't going to be 100% effective. That said, if you're applying a CAT to someone at an airsoft game then shit has hit the fan MASSIVELY and that person is lucky you had one on you!

as an ex-WE, all I can say to that is... 99.999% rounds/cleaning, 0.0001% missiles, torpedos, bombs. And I was a back-afty too!

for about 20 mins, yep.

Sites chrono at .20 because it's a known quantity and the marshals only need to remember one number! I honestly have no idea why anyone uses .20g BBs for anything other than chrono, .25 cost a fraction more and the performance gain to be had is significant.

I honestly don't even know why .23g BBs exist! people buy .20 because they're cheap, I get that, people buy .25 because they're reasonably priced and are more accurate than .20... but .23?! what niche does it fill?
