  1. Anyone going to TWA tomorrow ?

    1. Sitting Duck

      Haha I hear ya duck I'm in the same boat pal. Need to find out what actually still fits! I've a part to attend tomorrow and I'm not sure If I'll be able to fit a game in

  2. All in good time young grasshopper. As prof said, focus on saying something useful rather than just saying anything for the sake of it - bad for server space. I've been on here over 3 years and I don't think I've even reached 1k posts yet! ( am I the only one who thought the titles were time based rather than post count ?)
  3. I'd go with the bungee method as Alba said. RE everyone saying about it bouncing around, you can get weapon retention catches for your belt . Barrel end clips in and the gun doesn't fly everywhere
  4. Is the teesar US woodland range any good?

  5. 4x Alice m16 pouches 1x Alice compass pouch 1x LC2 Alice belt £30 including postage
  6. It says rape on tin, can't be good for you lol
  7. I'd imagine he'd have his own creation called the Vatigun. Something like fallout's railway rifle but firing big f*ck off wood nails instead. It would of course have a grenade launcher for shooting holy water filled balloons ,on the bottom, mounted to the gun with four silver crosses.
  8. Jesus, I think I'm getting old. Used the world debacle yesterday in a serious context :(

  9. It's not until you consider the money it saves by making your wife redundant and you're able to get rid of her that you realise how much of a bargain it truly is
  10. I took a three year break from airsoft :L
  11. We should just ship him off to Australia with the rest of the Scally wags and misfits ! ( just joking infanteer, welcome to the forums bud!)
  12. Just in time for Christmas , the ensuing shit storm shall at least give me something to read tomorrow
  13. Elitism works both ways. Usually people who have never been to a proper mil sim that dismiss it as only for Gear-do,walts. "I got into airsoft for the realism but I'm going to spend my time looking down my nose at people pursuing a greater level of realism than me"
  14. Borrow an RIF from your brother ?
  15. Arma 2 might be a better choice. Most people I know have it, and its quite cheap now if you don't. Almost everyone should be able to play it with a decent FPS, plus the uniforms and weapons are closer to our timeframe and a bit more realistic than the futuristic stuff in arma 3? Just my two cents
  16. http://www.goarmy.co.uk/military-clothing/hats-scarves/british-army-camouflage-skrim-head-camouflage-net-prod Depends what's more comfortable for you, under neath or on top of your hat are perfectly acceptable . On top may break up your sihoullete a bit more, and the brim of your hat will keep it off of your face. They also make good scarves, gun wraps and they're good improvised curtains for a fighting position or snipers den
  17. Get yourself a sniper veil. Very very versatile , can be draped over your bush hat to cover your head and shoulders.
  18. I too would like to see gun ownership made more accessible and self defence friendly but sadly I think now the UK has spent too long against the idea. I'm not sure when Dunblane happened but am I right in thinking it was mid 80s and led to the ban on handguns? If so, we're approaching two generations who have grown into adult hood without a firearm culture in the UK. I'm 19 and I haven't met a single person in real life who has the slightest clue about firearms. Whilst you or I would be fairly competent in handling them, I reckon half the people I went to school with would end up shooting themselves in the foot or something stupid. The self defence laws as you mentioned also handicap us greatly, after spending your life basically vulnerable if you then had the power to just drop a threat, I honestly would in the heat of the moment - so while that is a potential death who's to say I should have let them stab me then kill me? Bollocks to that. I remember parents buying their children stab proof vests to go to school in and play outside in down here in London. Is the UK really that much safer than the USA? Proportionately there are a load more people hence a load more crime , what do you expect ? They can't have police and cctv everywhere so there's more opportunity for crime than here. I can't see us suddenly having guns making crime rise. For one it would be guaranteed to fall if possession , manufacture etc were no longer crimes . I'd love to see us given the right to bear arms but I think it would be a very long process, starting with stuff like familiarisation with firearms safety from a primary school age in an attempt to bring back a firearms culture where people actually know what the hell they're talking about instead of " guns am bad mr media man tell me so and dem people died" I was on a security course today and the trainer who works part time as a uber driver to get extra cash for Christmas told us he had an executive from the BBC in his car. He asked him why the media only covers certain topics and pushes certain ideas. Unsurprisingly he was told there's someone at the very top who says what news goes in, and what news goes out. So much for free press eh? The government doesn't want us to have anyway of rebelling efficiently , it goes against their own self interests of keeping power. As an example , we were told to all close our eyes. He then said " if I say terrorist, what image do you see?" Personally I must be an exception because I just saw the black of my eyelids because I'm aware anyone can be a terrorist as it's simply a word for someone who imposes terror on another and is therefore subjective , but the rest of the people all said stuff along the lines of, Osama bin Laden, beards, turbans and Middle Eastern people- that's the image they've been given for the past 16 years or so.
  19. I need to get some sleep, read the title 5 times before I realised it didn't say homophobes. Was expecting a totally different thread lmao
  20. Poke holes and seal joins with pvc tape?
  21. I've seen two condoms being used to waterproof a mobile phone. First one goes over the botto, and tied in a knot at the top. Second goes over the top and died in a knot at the bottom. Obviously you probably won't want to run about with condoms on your gear but it's an option if it really is bad rain lol
  22. Any air brush artists amongst us? Looking for a quote for a future project

      I do airbrushy stuff, but as Trigger will tell you I'm out of the picture until after Xmas (moving house). If you can wait then drop me a PM.

      Was just about to suggest Lozart when I saw above post. Seen a few pics of his work, some very nice stuff. Wish I could do it but dont have enough colours in my crayola art station.

  23. Been mulling this over and if each person in your section brings packet of Pringles , you can not only have a jolly good munch but with some duct tape create a tennis ball mortar out of the tubes for fire support on the move. Improvise, adapt and overcome lol
