  1. That rather depends on what you regard as a decent rate of fire. I have the same motor/gear combination in two guns. One runs on 7.4v and gives what I would regard as a decent rate of fire; the other runs on 9.9v and gives what I would regard as a rate of fire that verges on being wankerish. I only use semi and the setup gives very nice trigger response, especially on 9.9v.
  2. Wow! You would probably do well to lay off whatever you are on; it is seriously affecting your ability to discriminate between conspiracy theories and reality.
  3. I am just looking forward to getting out next weekend for the first time since tearing an Achilles' tendon. Today's "airsoft day" involved replacing yet another failed Gate PicoSSR.
  4. Have you asked Zero One?
  5. No; just let it turn itself into a RIF.
  6. Shipping costs are high; however, a RIF that is 50p over the £135 minimum rather than 41p under has a delivery cost of £23.50.
  7. You can now buy items from Gunfire with a total value of less than £135 but the system automatically adds UPS Saver shipping, which is currently £51.35.
  8. Maybe buy a high torque motor, possibly combined with lower ratio gears. That would be a damned sight cheaper than buying a new gun. You could also maybe fit a basic mosfet.
  9. CCE trousers and cap to go with the shirt that I have had for a while, because I really need another set of camo. ? Also an M16A2 front end and stock.
  10. I miss two sites. The first is UCAP Sandpit; as others have mentioned, this site had everything: CQB, wide open spaces, areas with loads of cover, the pipeyard, vehicles etc etc. A massive site with great gameplay. The other is Doomsday in Kent; it was a small, scruffy and very laid back site that was superbly run by people who understood the absurdity of grown men running around shooting each other with toy guns. Although rather small, it always felt bigger (ooer missus!) due to the layout and the varied terrain. They also did the best veggie food in airsoft.
  11. The ZCI barrel and Macaron will make a positive difference. Did you fit an Omega nub as well? If not, you really should with the Macaron.
  12. The evidence so far indicates that you are;). Do you need a new spade yet? That one must be worn down by now.
  13. Ooh, a keyboard warrior; keep going.
  14. Oh dear! That went right over your head, didn't it? You stated that you will never change your opinion; I pointed out that was the position of a fool as only a fool will never be prepared to change their opinion. Do you understand it now?
  15. If you have an opinion and will never change it you are a fool; a wise person changes their opinions as new facts emerge, as John Maynard Keynes almost certainly did not say.
  16. Does the .097b platinum have an optical trigger sensor? I thought it had a mosfet and a microswitch trigger. If so, it is probably the now standard problem with the micro switch breaking.
  17. Dispatched: 2nd November 2020 Delivered: 22nd April 2021 Well done, UPS!
  18. It has a hell of lot to do with Brexit; while UPS may carry some responsibility, most of this is down to entirely predictable issues around border controls and being outside the single market. Entirely predictable to everyone except the UK government, that is.
  19. It seems that TG may have stopped selling to the UK for a while again until UPS/HMRC get themselves sorted out. The bulk of the problem is not due to UPS; it is due to those who prepared the "oven ready" deal not only forgetting to buy an oven but also not knowing what an oven is. Expect things to get a lot worse if the European Parliament does not ratify the deal due to the UK government unilaterally altering the Northern Ireland Protocol.
  20. Also, be aware that your purchase has to have a minimum value of £140.
  21. That is why we have the Classifieds section of the site:).
