You can tell him whatever you want; he is a piece of shit. An old acquaintance of mine was in one of the Guards regiments; some upper class twit put him in charge of the stores, which he flogged off. Realising that this might have been a bit of an error, he legged it to France and joined the FFL. On discovering that everything was done in French or, as he put it, "I thought it was supposed to be a Foreign Legion; everything was in fucking French!", he deserted and made his way back to the UK, where he was promptly arrested and spent some time in the glasshouse. He is now strangely reluctant to go to France.

Their site, their thieving cunt of a site owner. If people don't like it then they can go elsewhere.

The Lancer RIFs seem to be rather fussy about which gearboxes they will work with. I haven't done any measurements but have tried G&G, Classic Army and E&C gearboxes in an LT-12 with no success.

What does real-time tracking bring to the game? How do you see it being used and enhancing game play?

What3words is a useful tool for showing where a site is; postcodes in the countryside can cover quite a large area. Agree with you about picking stuff up in training areas; however, it depends on how familiar you are with what you are looking at. We have quite a good collection of stuff that we have found:).

The retailer will avoid it by pointing out that it was user error, regardless of whether it was or not. Put on your big boy pants, suck it up and fix it yourself.

Love the very early MP5 with the slimline handguard:).

It was a bit surprising, but it was in a very remote area that gets very few people passing through it, so I guess they left it for 48 hours until the training area was closed to the public again.

We had a good look at it, just in case it was a nice, harmless solid shot that could have come home with us. The rear fuse put an end to that idea so we wandered off to higher ground to get a signal and phoned the range office. We were rather disappointed that they decided not to come out to dispose of it.

I used it to report an unexploded and rather corroded shell on Dartmoor in the summer.

It is called momentum. A moving object will not stop dead unless a brake is applied to it; it will come to a halt once it has been slowed sufficiently by friction or another form of resistance. It does not have a name in airsoft; it is just something that happens.

I had a similar problem which I suspected was due to the nozzle being marginally too long. I slightly filed down the right angle just above the blue blob in your sketch; it seemed to give just enough room to enable the BBs to enter the hop unit without interfering with the nozzle. However, you seem to be using a Maple Leaf Macaron; the feed lips on these are marginally too long for some hop units, which can cause a similar problem to the one you are describing. Gently sanding them down a bit at a time and constantly checking tends to cure the problem.

It should be just loose enough to move freely.

Is it possible that the sector gear is shimmed too high so is not engaging the cutoff lever?

Err..ok, right; it was probably a conspiracy.

That would seem to be a reasonable decision; however, the double o ring nozzles can be a bit sticky. Single ones usually work fine.

Err..measure the existing one? Alternatively, if you want to take a punt, it is an M4, so a standard 21.4mm M4 nozzle should do the trick.

Yes, if it will fit. It is not that different from a LiPo. The space in the stock is rather limited. I have a Valken stick 7.4v 2500mAh Li Ion which is about 4mm too long.

I ordered from them several years ago (pre-Brexit); service was good and delivery was rapid.

Only if it has a G&G ETU trigger unit fitted. You are going to need a stand-alone mosfet such as a Gate Nano AAB or ASR, or a Perun AB++ or Mosfet.

Only if you completely rebuild the mosfet; the Hybrid is produced for V2 and V3 gearboxes, which are not what the R85 has as it is a bespoke gearbox.

Yes, the Acts themselves were not the issue. It just led me to wonder how many sites were potentially invalidating their insurance by selling pyro.

Going back through our insurance documents, there is no mention of CO2. One clause that did always intrigue me was this one in one of the documents: 11) any site storing, issuing or selling pyrotechnics must have a current “Registered Premises Licence” issued under the requirements of the Explosives Act, 1875 and 1923.

So, nothing to do with finding the best site (in anyone's opinion) in the UK then?
