  1.  

    Have also just orderd myself one of these but in black!

    Looks like they run a SP90 spring as standard but awaiting confirmation, Will hopefully receive mine on Monday/Tuesday.

     

    Will Look to see how tough the internals look before just chucking a spring inside it and keep you all posted.

     

    Depends who you order it from on the spring, i've been told mine will be coming with an M130 giving approximately 430fps. The ones for the US market are coming with m150 springs as standard.

  2. Be interested to see how this performs and what the upgrade path is like

     

    From what I gather, the only things that can be upgraded per se, is the spring (AEG), the hop up bucking (VSR) and the inner barrel (VSR). But the bits that interested me the most was the built in trigger adjustment and the direct feed mags.

     

    Will have to wait and see though, as I won't be picking it up until the 16th.

    Small adjustment, by way of AFG (and back to typically crap photos, because of crap lighting) - Now installed a jefftron V2 unit, and thoroughly impressed with it, to the point i'm replacing the stock G&G fet with one in another gun. Only thing left is to wait for the PTS Enhanced Polymer Stock's to arrive in the UK, as the CTR is a PITA to take off to put the battery in.

  4. HMRC finally coughed up for my (hefty) tax rebate, so i've updated my machine a little bit, this is primarily for working, but side effect of it being slightly insane in games - hopefully excluding the GPU's this will keep me going for at least 5 if not more years.

     

    *denotes items already owned

     

    OS: Windows 8.1 (because certain components are still reported as unstable on 10, a year after release, stability is king.)

    CPU/s: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2699v4 2.2GHz 22 Core/44 Threads each.

    Coolers: 2x NZXT Kraken X61*

    Motherboard: Asus Z10PE-D16* (bios flashed for Broadwell-E)

    RAM: 128GB Samsung DDR4-2133MHz ECC/REG CL15* (8x16GB, still got 8 slots free for further upgrade potential)

    SSD's: 512GB Samsung SM951 Boot "drive"*, 2x Intel 750 NVME PCIE 1.2TB

    GPU: 2x EVGA GTX Titan X (Maxwell)* (as soon as available, will be getting Pascal Titan X's)

    PSU: Corsair AX1500i* (even for this, PSU is massive overkill, but when it was bought, it was on a deal which made it £45 cheaper than the 1200i)

    Case: Coolermaster Cosmos II*

    Fans: Lots of Corsair ML140's no led version(Maglev fans, virtually silent compared to standard fans)

  5. Good luck with that. Airsoft was only legalised in the Netherlands a few years ago, and to take RIF's over you have to apply for an exemption for them with the Dutch Airsoft Sports Club (NABV) months in advance (I was told 3 months was usually minimum acceptable by a cousin who plays over there and holds NABV Membership).

  6. At the moment, it's sales and trading of firearms which includes BB guns by their default. Whether it impacts on airsoft (non second hand sales) and photos of military stuff remains to be seen.

     

    As it explicitly says airsoft guns, its pretty well clear cut that its going to affect us.

    FMA and Emerson helmets are copies of the real thing, a replica, in the same way that a Tokyo Marui gun is a replica of the real steel. And the really cheap ones, the 'clones' (without the symantics of all helmets probably being made in china) whilst also copies, are more like the JBBG version :)

     

    [i just use the term "cheaper china clone" because I like the alliteration]

     

    They are all clones regardless, which is why those convoluted semantics make no sense whatsoever.
