  1. 'BNIB' Mags which were muddy from them about a decade ago, never touched them again, unless they were the only option.
  2. Now with the ready availability of 3D Printed impacts that run off cap gun pellets, these are hard sell. I can have reliable one shot impacts for less than £5 a pop. They have to price it low, as otherwise they can't realistically compete any more. 92g in weight and 48 caps for £2.99.
  3. Because the 50 degree is for sub 1.49J, as UK is hard limit of 1.3J, there is no need for anything more. It's like RATech putting 70-80 degree as their default, because in taiwan, 2J is perfectly acceptable for a GBB.
  4. Crazy Jet is just pissing money into the wind, its proposed benefits are complete and utter bollocks. If you're using it in UK limits, 50 to 60 degree bucking from Silverback are lasting me approximately 10k bb's a go, and they're hopping 0.4's easily.
  5. Case in point, anyone buying anything PTW or HAO.
  6. I can still fog Revision's Desert locusts with the thermal lens and their anti-fog wipes, not so voodoo magic. It's all down to humidity and body heat, these things are all designed for environments with less than 50% average relative humidity, UK averages at around 50 - 60% in the summer and 80-90% during spring and winter. ExFog works well, its less expensive than the Novbitch one, and you can either fuck about with the magnetic end bits or just point the tubes in roughly the right direction - just don't forget to charge it the night before, because they don't hold juice very well (this applies to both ExFog and Novbitch ones).
  7. Would be, if they even existed for that. It's a low yield platform, so could be years before one exists.
  8. VFC can't get shit right first time, ever. So maybe wait 5 years until the Rev 2 appears.
  9. WE can fit RS stuff OOTB, the only thing needs doing to it is getting the steel trigger group from RATech almost immediately. Aftermarket availability on everything is significantly better. TM ones are good, but extremely expensive and pretty difficult to get hold of the mags. Physically completely offspec (as with anything TM, because Japanese laws require it), so don't expect to be able to fit anything on them except stuff designed specifically for them. GHK QC is dogshit, unless by some fluke you can find a used pre-2018 one, don't even bother.
  10. KWA feed lips are almost certainly the problem - they're renowned for it across the board. They're too stiff, and means in semi it can pick them up, but as soon as you have plenty of reciprocation, it messes up royally. For the LM4's you can convert them to single stack feeding, but that is only really an option for them, as nobody wants the KWA AK's, when other options are better.
  11. It's a common fault with the VFC Sigs - the springs & valves are too strong and need replacing immediately as the pistol is designed to run on the CO2 mags, so it just causes light striking on green gas ones.
  12. ACTO items, so you can try and buy them, but don't be surprised when you have to hand them back.
  13. Eww a wix site - if anything needed to be an indication of a dodgy retailer, its that.
  14. Given that its specifically Umarex USA & KWA, we probably won't see these until next year or at all.
  15. Why are you using a 70 degree bucking at 1.1J? You don't need more than 60, which would make the bucking more flexible and giving you more range of motion, which might alleviate the overhop.
  16. It'll almost certainly have to do with people being too lazy to contact their mobile networks to remove adult blocks - AFUK gets caught by them on Three, O2 and EE. Emails don't get blocked by some arbitrary age restriction.
  17. Alternatively wait - Brownell's usually does sales on every single US holiday, last time round they were giving 30% off on all magpul stuff, which would make things a little more palatable.
  18. Probably the same deal as the AEG (WE) F17 - a way to make it without the main company getting sued for not buying a license.
  19. I've been using this with my DCS - the cummerbund ends up being pretty much the same dimensions as the stock one. I've used the tubes mechanism about 100 times now and its not showing any signs of wear. https://caffeineairsoft.co.uk/products/krydex-elastic-cummerbund-quick-release-stretch-cummerbund-4-x-ar-magazine-pouches-for-lbt-lbx-fcpc-vest-accessories-2pcs-set?variant=42306386591931
  20. If this is the primary regulator, basically only an IDEST or UKAS technician can do it if you're wanting it filled again in future.
  21. RATech NPAS for WA GBBR's. Advance warning, its a pile of shit, but it's the only option short of messing with the valves with grub screws (which is incredibly hit or miss).
  22. I'm swapping away from the M/L rubbers in the rifles, as they do not last very long and frankly seem to suck up every single bit of crud and amalgamate with it. Silverback GBB ones are lasting at least 75-100% longer.
