  1. In fairness if you get the VFC like I did it's pretty easy although I've still got some bits to do
  2. I'm glad I started mine 18 months ago before everyone knew to stay buying everything up lol
  3. I removed about an inch of tube and cut the space for it in my real 200 rnd bag too . However I fitted a longer belt as it sits in place better and doesn't fall out when elevated
  4. I don't have my lpvo on it currently but here is my KS1
  5. Full story was he ran/owned Bespoke in Cannock but then sold it to Iwholesales where it operates as a kind of soft retail arm for them. They moved the business down south where upon the aforementioned commute came in Also worth noting that he probably isn't on companies house as he is a sole trader not a limited company
  6. What got me was ..... Condition "as new" I'm pretty sure even Airsoft world wouldn't have done paint like that from new
  7. What is your experience ? Which gas platforms have you worked with and how long have you been doing it for ? Many thanks
  8. Lambda defense have been making AEGs for some time. Externally stunning but internally meh . I'm not sure how this will end up being though
  9. Since 2020 shipping has increased in cost , materials have increased in cost , some factories have not yet fully returned to airsoft after switching to making medical and safety gear , fuel cost increases world wide . All of these are world wide but especially in some parts of Asia. Brexit may not help locally with the economy but it has nothing to do with the shortage of product being produced and shipped from Asia . Hong Kong shipping and warehousing companies have increased their charges exponentially the last few years which means retailers and factories are increasingly going back to sea shipping which is still very backed up from the pandemic rush and has also increased costs due to the global increase in fuel cost. If you think we have it bad the European shops have it even worse as the buying power in Euros is even lower currently according to my colleagues in the Europe offices. Add to this that there just hasn't been the new releases this year that we see some years but that fluctuates year on year
  10. That's the "Taiwan gun spec" version that doesn't have the magpul style furniture and pmag.
  11. You will probably find it's similar if you used 0.25s like he did. 0.32g certainly adds some energy
  12. As long as it's going to your address
  13. Oh that's different
  14. The gas only ever been one generation of the DE one so no idea what that is. Drop me a message mate
  15. I just really don't like the vector but I do like there to be replicas in GBB of anything people might want
  16. The KWA one was done before Krytac existed . Basically Defiance licensed KWA to make the GBB vector and they had a big fall out . Most of the KWA USA staff then left KWA and started Krytac as the airsoft division of Defiance (Kriss). KWA owned the proprietary gas system as they did the R&D etc and it's based on their gas system so Krytac were not allowed to use it. At the same time KWA couldn't make the Vector anymore as the license now belonged to Krytac hence why neither party could continue with it.
  17. For the second time. There was a GBB before the aeg
  18. The official announcement is next Monday
  19. What often causes the adapter to come loose is the movement of the fake belt catching on the magazine release as it rattles . I I sorted this by A using inert rounds with only the top VFC one with the hole in it and B by making sure there is plenty of slack above the mag catch so that the belt doesn't pull taught when it's being moved by the shaker
  20. They all seem out of stock. Basically they were available from a few importers but then one distributor managed to get a batch very very cheap ( which is why the retail price suddenly dropped) and now none of the original importers will touch them as there is no margin left and the importer that got a batch cheap don't have any left. I picked up a couple with the intention to do some project guns but if I decide against it I'll put them in the classifieds here still new in box
  21. Remember his support gun is using 100 round magazines and firing in bursts rather than the usual stream of BBs from AEG or HPA options . 0.32g is the heaviest I've seen for tracers and they were RWA ones https://www.redwolfairsoft.com/rwa-6mm-airsoft-tracer-bbs-pla-bio-tracer-0-32g-3000-rounds-bag.html
  22. Neither of those still exist . Swindon relocated what was left of the retail store to their site shop in Gloucester and RWUK closed retail operations 6 years ago and now only do B2B
  23. Just lower recoil, more cool down and venting per shot and just generally not feeling as "punchy"
  24. For £65 each definitely go for the gunsmodify mags
