HPA rifle hate? I guarantee it’s not why you think
GiantKiwi replied to Qlimax's topic in High Pressure Air
My biggest complaint with them has nothing to do with how they fire, just the bloody tanks (He says after having to convert a certain new acquisition to HPA to not use £20 of propane a day) -
Things I wish I had known when I started....
GiantKiwi replied to Raggedy_man's topic in General Discussion
I would want to slap my past self for ever having bought a PTW. -
Irritatingly large internal seams on the Fast fit ones which over prolonged periods of use, cause blisters in annoying places (Finger tips and between fingers). Also incredibly bulky, so completely useless if you have a narrow trigger guard, unlike the 5.11's which have a narrow end on each glove for the trigger finger.

All the mechanix love in this thread, I find them to be incredibly uncomfortable. 5.11 Tactical Scene One gloves for me

Defcon 5 Endurance Plate Carrier and a double pistol pouch -
RS Grips are your best bet with WE, as they don't require modification.

Georgian Military may use something with the designation G5, but it is categorically *not* at all like the GHK G5, so no, it isn't a representation of a Real Steel Firearm. Source: http://www.geo-army.ge/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=735:-qq-&catid=4&Itemid=〈=en Pictures 64-85.

6 years using hobbyking, and now they are refusing to refund me £38 after they cocked up an order. Now got to wait until the 4th August to escalate the Paypal claim -.-

They've refunded me now, but still won't be using them again. Basically, their system autofilled my address wrong, went to try and change it before it got shipped and got told, I needed to pay extra to do that. So I cancelled and asked for a refund, which they claimed to have done, but in fact hadn't, and only bothered to refund me when i put in the paypal dispute.

Well, as apart from the OP's posts, most of this appears to be speculation, I know someone personally who received a fixed term firearms ban, and he was categorically told that he wasn't able to have anything to do with airsoft during that fixed term, unless he really wanted a stay at HM's pleasure. So OP, no, your family member won't be able to take part in airsoft at all.

The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Arsebiscuit, revised list above, certain Asia retailers need to update stock quantities As that was most of the order, i've cancelled the rest as once shipping etc is taken into account, its actually cheaper to get the rest from eagle6 :/ -

what does your other half think of your airsofting??
GiantKiwi replied to shortman's topic in General Discussion
I'm glad I don't have another half at the moment, don't think many would approve of how much i spend on certain items -
FYI, Airshooters is run by the same guys as iWholesale (Same physical address and web domain registrant) might want to give them a ring instead

And an added advantage, if it gets wet it doesn't go soggy like cardboard

Import duty? No. VAT? Yes. £11 of it. This link - https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/tax-and-duty needs to be pinned somewhere and so does http://www.dutycalculator.com

You kid, but having actually done it before, I can safely say KY does work..not explaining why it was used. Not a chance in hell.

Nope, it's straight to the bin with that i'm afraid.

Private game playing in a laser tag arena, someone was using subpar ammunition and his gun got "stuck" in full auto as I was coming round the corner. Received a 3 second burst into my lower face mask, which would've been fine except the subpar bb's shattered and retained enough velocity passing through the mesh to wipe out half the teeth on my lower jaw. £600 dentist bill, which he graciously paid (well if he hadn't i'd probably have broken something of him >.> ) and he owes me pints for life.

"Condition: Brand New! Worn Twice" If its been worn twice it isn't bloody brand new then. Also that price is a piss take - http://uktactical.com/p-9113-warrior-ricas-compact-da556-black.aspx

As Ed eloquently put it, I have epic mong-finding skills - just traded a Cyma AKS74U and 5 midcaps for a GHK G5 and 4 mags.

Keeping it simple with this, Optic and a foregrip added.

My entire flat? I've got a 3 Rep Rap's living on my kitchen bench, and 5 different vice's attached to my kitchen table

Yes, i've had to do 6 complete overhauls for people at my site, after they'd installed the recoil kit and it had fully seized after a few thousand rounds. It's almost not worth repairing once its seized, as the spare parts are astronomically expensive (replacement lower receiver is $200). And below 350fps? Bull****. Never seen one below 380 stock.
