  1. They're not great on the WE 226, bit too wide. WE 226 is about an extra 30% wider than the desert warrior
  2. An option that isn't obscenely expensive, greatly welcomed.
  3. If its the nuprol universal holster, you can adjust the retention with the screws in the sides. If you plan on running a pistol light on it in the future, you can get either the blackhawk omnivore (quite spendy) or the aliexpress clone (not so spendy) which are vastly better than anything on the nuprol vein.

    Any TM spec AEG M4 magazine will work.
  5. There is literally a conversion kit that someone in the US has done last year, with the files costing $35 to buy. One modern replacement.
  6. Honestly, you're a tad biased given its your business model. Maybe worth staying out of this one, hmm? The point where I listen to a retailer on what is a fair price, is the day I stop playing airsoft.
  7. Might be rare and discontinued, its still not worth £2000. Especially as there was another one sold on here a while ago for £750 less than that. The guns themselves were about £700 new in 2017, the mags were about £80 a pop, even calculating rate of inflation, you still come out to around £1300 new.
  8. At that price point, you really would be better off just getting a TM one at £10 more - https://www.defconairsoft.co.uk/product/tokyo-marui-sig-sauer-p226-railed-gbb-pistol/ WE P226 is about 90% of a clone of a TM, just some of the more irritating aspects like the blowback chamber are not compatible, so it basically renders it as a one and done pistol with very little in the way of available improvements. The hop wheel on the WE needs replacing with the Maple Leaf one immediately as it doesn't get enough purchase to lift bb's well. Also being WE it's using WE Spec barrel and hop rubber, so not actually TM GBB spec despite appearances, so if you replace the hop rubber, you've got to replace the inner barrel at the same time. WE spec hop rubber + WE spec barrel = OK WE spec hop rubber + TM spec barrel = NO TM spec hop rubber + WE spec barrel = NO TM spec hop rubber + TM spec barrel = OK It's not particularly gas efficient on green gas due the enormous amount of mass in the slide, WE guns in general are designed with Taiwan in mind, where red gas is the norm, even in 35+ degrees C.
  9. Paintball mask, but price isn't unreasonable as the pro's are ~£150
  10. A friend tried to register on Friday and wasn't getting verification emails.
  11. As they're seemingly becoming unobtanium, bought another Large size Nuprol Hard Case for the Scar, as it won't fit in any of my existing ones because its marginally too long.
  12. I think the whole point of it was ML made so many VSR upgrade parts, that they just up and made a rifle with all the bits installed as standard, so I doubt there is much left to upgrade. Fluted barrel is indeed the deluxe model.
  13. If you can get one to actually be shipped, I have a friend who ordered at the preorder stage, and STILL hasn't received it. Communication from Toxicant is dogshit, and they just leave you in the dark endlessly. All the toxicant gubbins that guy has in the listing hits £1600, then you pay another 300+ in tax at the border, and you won't avoid it as it ends up in ParcelForce's grubby mitts. The sad reality is, he will sell it as people want them enough to put up the insane money.
  14. Unfortunate reality with that shitshow of a rifle, that's basically the going rate.
  15. Even better - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/146270037482?chn=ps&_ul=GB&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-170562-880048-8&mkcid=2&mkscid=101&itemid=146270037482&targetid=2334151151423&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=9215054&poi=&campaignid=20958443039&mkgroupid=165508169676&rlsatarget=pla-2334151151423&abcId=9371139&merchantid=5357716649&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20958443039&gbraid=0AAAAAD_Lr1fFt7tZgb8uIC_eL9KAUZn5H&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxo_CBhDbARIsADWpDH7Yc_t_gs45Pes5IT1ecTRUISHQgfOA5ARKCFRUH_ts7V2hPvWTLLMaAkvvEALw_wcB £88 + shipping
  16. Looks like genuine PLA issue one, but you can buy those on ebay for as little as £88 + shipping, as there are hundreds of thousands of them made.
  17. Somewhere between £130-140. Whilst they're not currently in stock, TacticalKit has them in stock on a fairly regular basis at £185. Kryptek ones are a bit marmite these days, so you will probably get low balled alot.
  18. This advert is COMPLETED!

    Had this a couple of years now, it’s been a reliable and consistent AEG, but I’m now moving onto being fully in GBBRs once again. Comes with 5 assorted KWA midcaps, 4 1200mAh Turnigy Nanotech 11.1v (these were bought in September 2024 and were only ever balance charged), Airtech Studio Extended Battery Stock so it can use the more common sizes of batteries- internally stock apart from having a Gate Titan V2 installed, will do around 28rps at slightly over 1J. Price inc P&P via ParcelForce to Mainland UK only, No Islands or NI - if shipped, can only include 1 battery due to PF Restrictions. Can be collected from Roslin and have all the batteries. As always, if you do not have a defence that I can easily verify, please don't waste my time.

    £150

  19. WE Scar H V3 GBB arrived today, just spent the last 2.5 hours putting the PTS KDG MREX 4.25" handguard on it, as it requires careful modification to fit the WE.
  20. Not really Gun - £349.99 - https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/emg-helios-noveske-n4-mws-gen-3-gas-blowback-m4-by-double-eagle-tan-g101 DE PMag x2 - £129.98 - https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/emg-helios-noveske-n4-m4-mws-gen-3-gas-magazine-by-double-eagle-35-rounds-tan Guns Modify PMag - £68.99 - https://highpressureairsoft.co.uk/products/guns-modify-evo-35rds-gbb-airsoft-magazine-for-tokyo-marui-mws-rifles Total new - £548.96 ----- 70% of - £384.27 Postage with PF - £12 Total - £396.27 Looks pretty spot on to me, all DE Pmags leak OOTB because they ship them ungassed.
  21. But at that point once again, split it, because most people aren't going to give a shit and are just going to go "fuck me, that's expensive" Especially when there are currently 3 other TM MP7's for sale at half the price. You clearly aren't up to date on import tax thresholds - unless it peaks over £135, the chance of being called up on the tax from china et al as less than 1%. Aliexpress, as others have said pays the tax before shipping anyway.
  22. Having a warehouse in Czechia isn't going to make things any faster, given you've got to be an RFD to export it from there, so yet more unnecessary red tape. Literally going to be quicker to order from Asia by at least a factor of 2 or 3.
  23. PF taking the piss as per usual.

    KICBB shipped parcel on 27th, Arrived in the UK on 28th, Customs charges raised on 29th.

     

    PF has done nothing since, but won't let me pay the charges until it reaches the local depot, but customs won't release it until the charges are paid.
