  1. One thing to note immediately - those lenses can't even be used. The OEM is a dubious copy of an already dubious chinese OEM, but they're pumping out stuff that isn't impact rated. The original by Wosport(?) was only able to withstand about 0.8J at 1metre back when they were first introduced in 2017.
  2. GDPR requirements are going to shit all over any ability to run this without significant money involved - UKARA are already pushing their luck at the best of times.
  3. Now that they're finally stocking them in the UK again, so don't have to pay the obscene international hazardous items shipping cost - Bought 4x of the venerable Turnigy Nanotech 1.2A 11.1v LiPo's from Hobbyking - my existing ones were starting to be a little bit taking the piss on age, at slightly over 10 years old - so was hoping and praying they wouldn't go titsup before I could replace them and be forced to get a nuprol PoS.
  4. £130 new for similar almost 15 years ago, WAS are good, they're not THAT good. So a £50 markup and you've got to pay extra for P&P.
  5. Oh hello, now that's a name I recognise from when I was back in the muff 10ish years ago.
  6. If we didn't play every time there was a bit of rain, you wouldn't play for about 90% of the year up here.
  7. I keep seeing negative airsoft referenced, but his reviews seem to be spouting a colossal amount of shit at the best of times. Get one, try it to see if it works for your use case - don't take a person spouting crap on the internet at face value.
  8. Swear everybody of a certain era is RGJ in airsoft circles 👀
  9. Not exactly a steal - £500 in total new if you used the most expensive retailers in UK & Ireland, these things are being sold off left, right and centre ffs. At best £250, £330 is a few steps into lalaland if not doing posting and fees included (which is not)
  10. It is a fake, look at the R, it has rounded corners, legit have hard, square corners. Probably why the other side isn't shown at all, as all the repro's and fakes mess up the 5 and make it look like an S.
  11. It's essentially a stock WE with a Bodykit attached - If you're lucky you might get someone to pay 55% of cost, so you'd be looking at about £430 for the lot on that basis. But it may also sit for months. I would sell it with 4 mags that are all leak free and sell the other mags independently, as 4 is enough to potentially skirmish with, but also not artificially inflate the price.
  12. Slowly getting to how I want it, got the FTC mount on order, probably going to cheapskate on a repro chinese G43 for the moment, and get the Vortex Micro3X down the line when I can justify dropping £300 on a magnifier, to match with the Vortex Crossfire.
  13. OK - Exfog is a doddle to set up. The XT's come with the little magnet hose things, push the adapter through a hole in the seal vents (desert locust for me), point at the lens and you're golden - don't need to make any destructive holes or anything. If you have active headsets, you are going to hear every little bit of it functioning, but its easy enough to switch off when you don't need it. The vent is on the bottom of the unit and the hose adapter actually creates an intake space, so unless you're using a really restricting pouch it will have plenty of space. I got the XT without the headband for ~£50 from Specs4sports, which I think makes it about £10 cheaper than the Novshit. I could feel the air even on the lowest setting, and the full power burst mode is mental.
  14. Novshit one has a crappy plastic box that can be shattered with a direct hit from a 1.7J BB though, which was what turned me off it, rather than having to punch the hole. Yup XT is what i have arriving today, from reading the promotional guff again, it looks like it also has magnetic attachments now as well, except it doesn't look like it needs to butcher the recipient goggles in the process.
