    Its a shame you're using a real one as I have a plan for a trap door in the middle which opens, you pop the moscart, grenade, whatever you fancy into a chamber which opens, and then you press a button like on the real thing, activating either a spring loaded firing pin or an eletric actuator (havent finalised the design) to set of the grenade. I saw a French guy who made an inner barrel for his one, and crafted a small aluminium arm which applied pleasure to the grenade's firing button when he pressed the corresponding button on the M72. I had a link to his tutorial but it was all in french and Google translate couldn't tackle the website or anything of the stuff he was talking about if I copied and pasted it in.

    Been after one of those for ages couldnt find any in the uk for less than 300, I'm going to make my own, just getting the second pipe so I can start. Pocket nerfs fit I've heard and are about 4 quid each.

    Youtube "UCAP Sandpit Amphibious assault" , they sometimes run milsims and have had an amphibious insertion before ( the site has a lake in it ) which was pretty cool. I've seen sites that offer air, mortar or arty support via radio, the idea being you radio command, then this is passed onto marshal I am presuming, who then either pop smoke, or wait for targets to be designated via smoke before setting off pyrotechnics and declaring everyone within a certain radius or not behind certain cover dead, dependent on the support used or if they decide something was a direct hit on a bunker.

    Just a heads up about the airsoft show, I bought my ticket before I knew better so will see you there on the sunday, but I hear its full of idiots such as JustBBguns who are trying to impress the neighbouring shooting show, who are all in tweed and flatcaps, so take anything you hear from the stallholders with a pinch of salt.

    Lone Survivor was amazing. Best "new" film I've seen recently, first thing I've enjoyed since BHD.

      Thanks for pointing that out to me Nick, all emptied now, was wondering why I hadn't got a message I was waiting on lol

    Yeah I was thinking about the MOD restrictions putting a hold on that. I think one key thing will be getting cover and firing positions set up well, my local site is absoulutely shocking as far as thats concerned, everything thats meant to be defended has no firing points that are of any use and it just makes play frustrating, basically if you go inside a building you will end up dead because you cant react to contacts lol. You'll have to find a balance between cover/firing postions being useful and realistic but also (as unlogical as it would be in combat) balanced which is the hardest part. Theres a fine line between them being useful to the occupier, and impossible for the attacker to take .

    Tier 1 (I believe) who are a well established mil-sim company pay collectors to drive their vehicles around for the weekend I think. Don't quote me on it though, it may have been another company. I think you could do with looking up the Berget events, something like that in the UK would have people travelling from all over! I also think a good realism feature would be securing rights for players to dig foxholes, build up their own little emplacements within reason, and have them filled in after the event. There is a site in wales somewhere which allows this IIRC, would allow you to allocate field engineers into the teams, perhaps even have a few .50 cal's made up and allocated per team but this would be expensive. Would you be able to get your hands on Comms? Tier one signs out raidos to sections I think, giving each section a radio man which helps with the immersion.

    I do the same with my ALICE gear RE the paracord UTJ, it's actually was Special forces used to do also to save on weight by removing all metal clips and replacing them with paracord equivalents, also helped with noise lol.

    Almost had an excuse to start a Brit kit then but they don't have my size in stock, wallet is relieved!

  12. AirsoftTed

    Is that the tan "Peca" from EBairsoft mate? If it is, whats the quality like? I'm tempted to get one for my FR kit but the price is making me feel like it's too good to be true.

    Tonight has been brillant.

  15. AirsoftTed
    You've done well with that Zak, wouldn't think it was a w700 with the scrim on.
  16. AirsoftTed
    Nice PT! I've noticed your guns are gradually increasing in size, gone from the patriot to a full size now
  17. AirsoftTed
    I like that mate, could pass as a futuristic PMC aswell.

    SND, you come out with some of the most bad ass loadouts I've ever seen mate. Great work! Would love to see what else you've come up with! Anything Recon/USMC related?
  20. AirsoftTed
    Ed, just go for one of those good old BMI altering craps, you know the type that require so much air freshner you go down to the local chapel to confess your sins against the ozone layer and beg for forgiveness.
  21. AirsoftTed
    Have you come across this yet mate? http://www.ww2airsoft.org.uk/british-airborne-basic-impression/

    Last time I asked Zeroone for a price match they got back to me within 2 hours and matched it. Suppose it depends on the item and how busy they are on the day
  23. AirsoftTed

    Just ordered a Tan PACA from Japan. And so the loadout begins.

    Anyone know where I can get some 3" or 76mm OD PVC pipe in something like a metre length? All I can find is 2m, and the one 1m I found wanted 25 quid postage for an 11 quid bit of pipe!

      I might just do that Fin and Russ, Would love to go on an Op with the AFUK lot.

       

      I'm going to ring Wickes and ask if they'll cut the pipe into 1m lengths for me, I might make a few if the first one goes well!

      B&Q do a wood cutting service in store so might do one for piping too. Wickes don't offer that service.

      I managed to fit a 2m pipe (barely) in my polo lol. They didnt have any 3 inch in, but I got some 68mm down pipe, so perfect for the inside part, next on the list is some 3 inch which I'll try and get in the week.

    happy new year guys!
