It's a criminal offense to paint one without a defense, however the law isn't really enforceable unless you were reported by some nosy dicker with an acute understanding of the VCRA. I suppose you could use a very worn 2 tone weapon at a skirmish, technically a 2 tone airsoft gun with a little bit of paint flaked off it is not 51% painted so it isn't really the legal definition of a 2 tone any more though so it doesn't really matter. ^no one will really care anyway

Coyote brown ACU shirt, £25.50 Tan Bulle lightweight chest rig, £25.53 Coyote brown scrim net, £8.65 Scout sniper loadout is on it's way

Welcome to the forums and airsoft. Prepare your wallet as it'll hurt for these coming months

Yeh, I'd like an FG42 or a decent STG44

Ah.

That's mental value for an airsoft product!

Only use these cheap gas pistols have is as an embarrassing takedown weapon. Friend of mine uses one of these for that role- it's surprisingly powerful and hilarious when he gets a kill with it

Use it regularly within the cadet forces. Worst I've seen happen to it was a guy getting a rip down by his trouser pockets (he's a hamfisted numpty anyway ) apart from some design flaws *cough*cough*mesh inside the smock*cough*cough*, I think it's great and looks a lot better than having cadets in '95 DPM of varying shades of fadedness.

No, a different brand I can't remember... it was good on metals but not great on plastics, left them shining when painted.

And as it's CO2 most sites wouldn't be happy for you to use it

Just needed 2 coats of black and some matte varnish

Yup

Let me know how installation goes (maybe a linky if it goes good) as I'm interested however a little cash strapped at the moment

You could get some Nitro Mors and use it on the painted receiver of your MP5, it gives it a badass bare metal look as it strips right down through the original black... I had my MP5 that way for a while before repainting and it turned so many heads, you just have to make sure every fleck of paint is gone

Is that because Double Eagle don't produce AKs with mounting points for rails, or for some crazy other reason?

Best beginner weapon is the G&G Combat Machine series hands down. Durable, Affordable, and perform extremely well for £140 and less. Take a look here, this site is very good.

I've heard those things leak around the join, not sure about the validity of this though... watch out anyway

Talk to the travel company and make sure they're okay with it, and declare it to border agencies in the UK and at your end.

What Jcheese means is book a game scheduled after you arrive, use that as a defense for bringing a RIF into the country and then play at any other games you want over the remaining 5 1/2 months while using said RIF.

Welcome to AF-UK, Dom I think there are a few veteran members from here who skirmish up where you are so you might meet a few of them. Any questions, just ask us on here

Looking at the current numbers booked, I'm thinking Bravo would be a better team to join, the Others seems much more popular out of the three

We don't tend to use personal insurance as skirmishers, only sites need to be insured.
