  1. When I was running about all over the place doing contract work, I was lucky if I could get a game in a month. Now, I can theoretically go every weekend (Got told off by HR on friday for working longer hours than my contract requires o.O )
  2. TRMR Multishot in Hot Pink (got to be different ) HW Kydex Holster for TRMR Multishot in Black
  3. May as well use the money you spend on one as firelighters, more use than that fallacy of a pistol.
  4. PAYDAY! Element LA-5/PEQ15 in Black x2 (Was going to get myself an invisiblesight one, but my only reason for having an IR illuminator died.) ZTac Comtac II's ZTac U94 for Kenwood ZTac Arc Rail Adapters for Comtac II Baofeng 3700mAh Extended Battery for UV5R x2 Baofeng UV5R
  5. Nope. I use heavier ammo, which ends up working out at almost half again as expensive for a much smaller amount. Fine, I don't use anywhere as many but a High cap would take the same amount of BB's that would last me 4 or 5 game days. Only caveat to that, if a mate asks for a few (and I do mean a few) I will probably give to them, but random joe bloggs? Not a chance.
  6. Ordered thousands of pounds worth of stuff from Echigoya without a hitch, pretty much the best place to order TM stuff in the world.
  7. It's completely legal; Safe if you adhere to common sense. And incredibly dangerous? Eh no. There is no need to regulate the pressure, we are maintaining pressure in both vessels, and the smaller ones usually have expansion release valves, the only reason for having a regulator is when using propane for residential reasons where the high pressure would be unsafe, thus need a regulator to reduce it, as we are specifically after that high pressure we don't have that issue. If you are referring to ignition for volatility, yes it is. But common sense should prevail that naked flame/ spark etc + propane release = boom. Catastrophic is possibly a little bit more on the fear-mongering side..
  8. And you took that as a joke? Get the bug out of your backside. Jeez. An Air compressor capable of pumping a paintball tank can be costly, but if you get an oil free workshop 85 PSI capable compressor, and one of these - http://www.shoeboxcompressor.com/products.html - not so much. If like me you need to travel 45 minutes to your nearest dive shop who charge you 8 quid a fill regardless of tank size, it levels itself out pretty damn quickly. Also those stirrup pumps are overpriced cack. Unfiltered compressed air is an incredibly bad idea, much quicker degradation of seals, you've got to use them when the air is low humidity (sub 20%) which doesn't happen any time during the british summer, or you get copious amounts of moisture build up which can lead to corrosion inside the tank which can lead to a pressure blowout, which is incredibly dangerous.
  9. You have apparently misunderstood the context here Grover Its not a question of practicality, but of the airsoft variant of IPSC (International Practical Shooting Confederation).
  10. Oh by the way, the one here and the one on zeroin are separate petitions as well, so that's two numpties in one day..
  11. JPC arrived today, on me it looks slightly larger than a sports bra...oh well :P

  12. 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)
  13. I would want to slap my past self for ever having bought a PTW.
  14. 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.
  15. All the mechanix love in this thread, I find them to be incredibly uncomfortable. 5.11 Tactical Scene One gloves for me
  16. Defcon 5 Endurance Plate Carrier and a double pistol pouch
  17. RS Grips are your best bet with WE, as they don't require modification.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.

  20. 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.
  21. 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 :/
  22. For the Masada: RATech NPAS for KJW M4 (managed to lose the last one, god knows how) Magpul PTS Long Handguard For G5: Mag follower spring (the old one pinged off into the neighbour's pond this afternoon ) For the TM M&P9 I'm buying tomorrow: 3x Nineball Purple Gas Router 3x Nineball Neo-R Adjustable High Flow Mag Valve 1x Nineball Purple Hop Rubber 1x Nineball 6.03 Inner Barrel for M&P9 1x Nova CNC Aluminium Slide kit in Black 1x UAC Match Grade Steel Trigger Lever for M&P9 1x UAC Match Grade Steel Hammer & Sear for M&P9 1x UAC Tactical Trigger in Black for M&P9 1x UAC Ultra Lightweight Blowback Housing for M&P9 1x UAC Aluminium Loading Nozzle for M&P9 1x UAC Piston Head for M&P9 1x UAC Day and Night Sight for M&P9
  23. 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
