    Thats that sorted then, I'll be there one way or another! More likely the Saturday as I've been told trains are stopping there specifically for it over the weekend. I'll be sure to pop in and say hi Nick, will be my first time visiting so may take me a while to find my way to you lol. What do you reckon my chances are of picking up an M72 LAW ? I've heard they used to be a common sight, but I'm struggling to find any online now for a reasonable price, just a few at 300 quid and one for 150! I'm hoping a few collectors or 'Nam guys will have some for sale.

    Going to see if I can get my sister to give me a lift as I'm without a car for now. Is it doable by public transport from london?
  3. AirsoftTed
    Whilst not central, perhaps UCAPS Sandpit would be a good shout. For my fellow Scotsmen its a 4 hour train journey from Glasgow to London, something like £18 quid if you book well in advance. The rest of the UK's major cities have direct trains to London too I'm guessing? Over on Arnie's forum when they have their annual get together they use the sandpit so I'm sure hiring it for a weekend will be no problem! From what I remember (don't hold me to this its been around a year since I read the thread) theres a pizza place and hotel not too far from it, making non campers and people wanting pizza accommodated for?

    Fully gutted. Just tried to order a Moons out Goons out t shirt but the campaigns ended 2 days earlier than it was supposed to :(

    I remember years ago, pre VCRA, I got a full metal eletric AK for £45 at a bootsale; it was the most beautiful amazing thing I'd ever seen. Bear in mind £45 was considered "expensive" for a "bb gun" at this time as it was mostly springer pistols for £5 or the odd double eagle g36 for £25. Oh how things have changed!

    A nerf firing Carl Gustav would be sweet! A commercially available mortar firing something other than those big water things that have been done before and ruled by many sites to be due dangerous to they're weight and density. Something firing nerf vortex or the like and a bit more realistic looking be amazing.

    I meant to write that, my bad. Hadn't been asleep for a few days and was writing as my train of thought unfolded. Edited.

    Rifled Instrument for F*ck starting faces. Lol, Realistic imitation firearm, it refers to a non two tone gun. A two tone gone is classed as an IF or imitation firearm.

    Maybe a lid that closes with a cheapo poundshop padlock? Then all the guys to rock up with bolt cutters strapped to their back have a use for them lol. Game play could work out something like, the key is on a HVT of the other team, however if it comes to say within 5 minutes of detonating or some other rule, you can use the bolt cutters if found/available etc BUT doing so results in a forefeit of 2 players who join the enemy team for the next round?

    The Medium ALICE pack just turnt up, nice suprise to find it had a brand new lightweight frame and Molle II straps already installed! Just need to change buckles for fastex ones and repair the lid which seems to have rotted a bit... There was also a waterproofing back inside but that was rotted beyond belief so had to be binned! Anyone know how to get marker out of a pack?

      Yeah the fella who used in whichever US force he was in has wrote his name in massive letters twice so I need to get shot of it and replace with my name lol. I'll spot test some mate, cheers! I've used hairspray on metal before but I dont see it working on nylon lol

      Cheers mate, got some work cut out to get it the way I want but it'll be worth it!

    What would we say is better lads, Flyye or Pantac? Looking at getting a RRV rig and with pouches and shipping its only 8 quid dearer for a Pantac set from HK, I've heard pantac is better but Flyye use 1000d codura ?

      Its shocking how you slip into aint it mate! When I started off I was like pfft I'll never spend that much money on airsoft, what a load of divs getting that into it! my first dpm loadout lasted I sh*t you not, 1 skirmish, the following UKSF one did the same, and then I went Marine FR, and thats last about a year now! I find myself buying stuff and thinking oh I could get a few extra bits and use it for a SEAL loadout... Its never ending!

      The problem is, after my last loadout i swore to stay away from "tacticool" and build my gear around comfort. I did that with basic aor1 gear i made for cqb but after i kept on adding and now if i had the dummy GPNVG18's id look very very close to devgru...! xD

    4. AirsoftTed

      AirsoftTed

      I've lost count of the amount of times I've said "F*ck it i'm going down the comfort and what works for me route" always last until I go to order something and then convince myself not to due to accuracy lolol. You'd think I was in a re-enactment group or team the way I go on but I'm the only bloke I've met who does 2000-2005 and 2009ish FR lol

  12. AirsoftTed
    Now Ed, once you've built a l119a1, will you be going all UKSF on us? (Loadout wise)
  13. AirsoftTed
    Would these do? http://www.rvops.co.uk/Catalogue/Field-Kit/Model-Making-Kit/View-All/Telescopic-Pointers#sthash.zmRGlTgr.dpbs

    1 Medium Alice pack with lightweight frame - £39 all in 1 British Army OD sniper scrim scarf - £3.95 all in Was also going to pick up some US woodland BDU's but there were no trousers in my size! If anyone has any 200 rnd SAW ALICE pouches in good nick let me know!
  15. AirsoftTed
    I'm of the same thinking as Russel; I'm going be getting a Medium Alice pack to compliment my ALICE webbing. With a few mods I'll be able to comfortably carry a weekenders worth of gear.
  16. AirsoftTed
    If you could lay your hands on a Mk7 long enough to get a mould done you'd be onto a right winner with the Brit kit guys, not being able to get the right helmet was one of the things that put me off doing a Brit kit!
  17. AirsoftTed
    Real plates? You planning on taking the African mercenary loadout beyond airsoft Nick?
  18. AirsoftTed
    I didn't know Tactical quarter master even sold RIFs, I drive past it on the way to and from my old local and it always just looked liked a shoddy surplus store lol

    I cam up for shits and giggles. Scares the 12 year olds on site! I figure I've spent so much money on my Force recon loadout and I play a recon role, may aswell go all the way as to speak. Annoyingly the camera hasn't picked up the 2 different shades of green or the fact I have 2 shades of brown on my face but it doesn't take long to cam up, took me 4 minutes to do a 6 colour job. Came off with 1 wet wipe aswell, so those who have trouble getting it off I would suggest getting decent wet wipes! Only trouble is if you have any stubble it gets a bit stuck to that, and your eyebrows go a dark colour leaving you looking like groucho marx unless you give them extra attention with a wet wipe!

    Weclome aboard mate

    Just ordered a definition of recon jumper in support of the recon foundation! stoked

  22. AirsoftTed
    Looking good Mack! Nice to see another USMC loadout!
  23. AirsoftTed

    Anyone suggest a resonably priced CB ruck that can be worn with belt kit and wouldn't look out of place for Force recon? Needs to hold a weekenders worth of gear and food

      What kind of gear are you thinking of? because it's only a 25L.

    3. Mack

      Well I've took mine on three stag weekends and there's enough for three days worth of clothes and wash kit in it. Plenty of Molle on the outside for extra pouches for more if you need.

      I'm going to Knab a ILBE off Ebay i think, few of them knocking around sub £80 all in. I like the look of the WAS packs but theyre out of stock. I have read FR purchase new packs so thought they would fit the bill! Yeah you can fit alot in Macks pack, just knowing how to pack ;)

  24. AirsoftTed
    I'd advise against this, its not really responsible and may come under animal cruelty, especially with and air rifle because you wont kill it outright, just wound it and it could later die of those wounds. Are there not any fox repellants on the market?
  25. AirsoftTed
    Wait, you guys actually have money left over to spend on anything other than Airsoft? Blasphemy! Just kidding, I'm into boxing and pool myself!
