  1. Been a user of WE since the closed bolt era, but i'm now swapping to TM as I don't have to stick with a single, shit aftermarket option (note, not upgrade, aftermarket, as they're anything but upgrades). Also another consideration, WE V2 (what most retailers in the UK have in stock at the moment, and what all used sales will be) is now end of life, as V3 has been released 4-5 months ago. There isn't enough information on the reliability of V3 to be able to recommend them, and V2 parts ceased being manufactured 3 months prior to the first production runs of V3, so parts will start to become more scarce.
  2. Not a chance in hell basically. You as a consumer will be unable to find a carrier willing to ship it as its on every shipping companies prohibition list. Also, there is no point trying to fudge it, as everything gets scanned at entry and exits of countries.
  3. Nope. I'm just stating what I will be getting, from a UK retailer, as I don't fancy playing the held up in customs for 6 months lottery again any time soon.
  4. Yup - Having the LT in Grey
  5. He's still selling it elsewhere, as a friend sent me a screenshot of it an hour ago popping up a fresh in a hidden sales FB group.
  6. If this is in regards to the nuprol cases, their pick n pluck is trash, just get the cheaper wave foam and then if you want to get a cutout shape, go to shadowfoam for it, as that is truly amazing compared to both of nuprols options
  7. Had to go look what it was - Anyone actually believe the shit PTS spout? "Self Lubricating Resin Shell" - Do fuck right off, PTS.
  8. Recommended on HRC is to make them 230mm long, to stop misfeeds - which is typically caused by bolt bounce.
  9. Did you shorten said winter springs to 230mm?
  10. Airtac adapters need to use AEG mags with a significantly higher spring strength, cheap AEG mags are almost always not up to snuff. PTSEPM1/1S definitely work (what the adapters are designed around), older EPM's (Gen1) do not. Mags i've tested that do not work, anything made by KWA, Specna, Ares, Classic Army. Some CYMA's can work, but only more modern ones, G&G are hit and miss - if they have the follower that goes outside of the mag lip, forget it, G&P Troy mags will work, but you'll have to part fill. PSI wise, it'll depend solely on if the adapter in question has a built in expansion chamber, if it does you will be able to run it on 80-100PSI. If it feeds the line through the adapter direct to the output valve, it won't run on anything less than 120-130PSI, and probably more realistically 140-145psi (and if you've got heavy bolt, or other heavy recoil mods, higher PSI to overcome mass). Edit: Looked at them. Neither variant of airtac for VFC M4 has an expansion chamber, so its higher PSI almost certainly.
  11. Nah. RATech shit just causes more problems than it solves. Not upgrades, just overtly expensive side grades. I have had stock WE trigger boxes last in excess of 100k bb's, but it requires proper regular maintenance.
  12. There was a time where you could have eeeked out £50-60 a piece from the right buyer, however, things have move on (EPM's are empiricallly better unfortunately) - you could probably sell them these days for £15-20 a piece now, but it'll be dependent on someone really, really wanting them.
  13. Had forgotten how much of a pain in the arse moving house is - at least i don't have to rush this time.

  14. Also vinted flat out banned anything even remotely military related at the beginning of last year - People posting camo Vans keep having adverts pulled.
  15. Basically nowhere. You will likely find its restricted in someway or another by the russia sanctions. - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2019/855/contents
  16. Would place heavy bets on old prisons being chockful of currently unexposed Asbestos - which makes them completely unviable for redevelopment, as removal/containment is astronomically expensive/time consuming.
  17. Literally a section for it https://airsoft-forums.uk/forum/51-skirmish-sites-stories-reviews/
  18. It's not even retail - worst case scenario that's about £450 new. The crap 'included' aside from the mags are worthless.
  19. The precision nub isn't compatible with the DE without signicantly modifying the arm. I just swapped back to an omega nub, which works perfectly.
  20. Sigh. Hi Capa mags, literally the only ones I don't have.
  21. Oh god. It's him. I'm surprised its even working.
  22. You've missed that he appears to be trying to sell it 4 times as well.
  23. Bought the WADSN Unity FTC 30mm a few months ago, finally arrived and in standard chinesium it wasn't actually a 30mm ID (calipers read 28.82mm ?) so had to take a file to the inside to open it up to accept the magnifier I have. It works now just about ?
