Top tip - keep a copy of your fees invoice as more than once the drivers have tried to claim on delivery that the fees haven't been paid. I loathe UPS but they are pretty good at actually turning up unlike Hermes...

They are also pretty good at answering their phones in the import Dept with an actual human.

ye, it's in my emails and I paid using paypal, so there's that

No actually, I take that back. I remeber how thin the front is. It'll snap.

I thought they were all 6.04mm. I bought a set for the 1911 and got a sharp fps increase... which means it genuinely is a 6.01 god dammit.

Aaaaand... with all the experimenting i've done... 1911s are still shit no matter what. Their fundamental airsoft design is just terrible.

I'm pretty happy with my WE MEU . It's got a crazy jet, maple leaf rubber, wheel and I key in it and performs well. Irun it on red gas all year round and .30's, itll handle heavier but .3 tends to be what I use in pistols.

Had a wee thought about it, probably not. I'd only use the wraith co2 stock because I hate being tied down to a hose. Suppressive fire is still very effective in woodland games, and the wraith co2 does not allow that. Well, it does. But every 180 rounds (my mid cap size), i'd have to change mag + co2 from buffer tube. I can already imagine that being extremely irritating. I'll just stick with my reliable aeg and move onto another crazy project.

The line really isnt that bad, especially in woodland, it's no worse than a sling or a lanyard on a pistol.

Certainly any inconvenience there is will be more than offset by the performance.

I just bought a random set, pretty accurate.

If you need to weigh bb's pop a load on and average them.

if weighing bb's then you need one that has 0.01gm increments. otherwise it will show .25's as .20 or .30. As been said weigh a few to be sure say 10 bb's and you get a better idea on bb's as .25's can display as .23 or .28's due to cheap China scales tolerances. Should be able to get mini drug dealer scales for about a fiver or so on fleabay and they work well - just try to get the 0.01gm version if possible. Same as digital calipers for shimming, plastic calipers work in only 0.1mm but metal calipers work in 0.01mm increments so more accurate for measuring shims etc.....

Ah no it's not for weighing bbs. It's just for general things like pistol parts. I'll look into it though. I already got a mitutoyo caliper hehe

Actually, upon closer inspection, it is not a glock style mag. From the crw video: 

 He says that it's like a g17 style trigger unit. Fuck, I may have jumped the gun with that g17 conclusion ahaha.

If only you'd had some more pistols, you could have been prepared...

Na, I wouldn't have ahaha. I go by public transport and there's no way I would carry more than what I needed. This time, my friend came along, so I could afford to carry an extra rifle.

na not really hahaha got enough

G23 seems like a good choice. Though... I kinda want a kc02 right now.........

Didn't you just say that you were done buying more pistols?

just another ct25.....

There's still one more green gas pistol i want to try... a desert eagle... and i guess i can get a ct25 to hide up my ass. Man, I really wanted the tt33 to be a good display piece/backup. Sad that it's not even good enough for that.

The TM DE? Honestly I have tried one and was disappointed with the plasticky externals. It doesn't feel anyway it should be. Though I admit it does have a real kick to it. 

Na, the WE DE. I've seen from videos that it can get 80+ shots on a gas fill. But I wonder how much gas it consumes per shot. I was also thinking of trying out the nuprol 4.0 or map gas stuff if I do keep a green gas pistol.

Nikko stirling are pretty light depending on one you use or you could do something a little different and go for a short dot like a vision king

Started using one of the ASG 'short dot' clones and have to say im very impressed with it , nice and light , great eye relief and good controls. Im using it on my SRS over my old Nikko Sterling 'traditional scope' now 

Chap today had a ct25, smaller than a derringer and shoots surprisingly well. I want one

TM Detonics 

I dont have exact numbers but I get maybe 4 game days out of a can using 4 40mm shells and a sidearm. I go through it in 2-3 if im using an mp7

Whelp. I did it. I need a new slide anyway. Not getting another one of those archive g18c slides because this was what happened: https://imgur.com/a/Ftv2ywQ

I may need a longer inner barrel... I do want different iron sights though: I want raised, aggressive ones.

edit: got it, but fuck meeeeeeee $68........ http://www.bunnyworkshop.com.hk/airsoft/gunsmodify-raised-up-tritium-sight-for-marui-g17-18c-26-1

Not sure whether to keep a 150% spring in it or not. I'm gonna test efficiency with both tomorrow

Teaser for the guide  

QD sockets for slings?  There's no such thing as a 'regular' pic handguard threaded hole, their existence is a realllly old legacy thing from when pic rails were very first adopted.  KeyMod and MLOK really killed off the direct screw-mount forends, lots of pic mounted QD sockets out there of course.

most days I'll do 2 Royal Mail drop-offs, one around midday the 2nd around 4:30pm.  It's a bit of a pain but the post office is only half a mile away.  However these days around 90% of items posted around 4:30pm arrived next day.  Royal Mail is upping their prices every year but I figure I would just absorb them as long as they are providing a decent service.  The odd small eBay packet which isn't tracked will go missing from time to time, you don't know if it generally goes missing or is fraud....anyway I'm digressing now 🙂

Do Royal Mail not offer you discounted rates due to the sheer volume you must send with them? I know we get discounted rates from some couriers because of this reason.

I have never had a bad experience ordering from you, and neither have anyone I have recommended to you either.  If we did customer service awards, you’d win every time.

RM do offer a discount, basically some loophole where you don't get charged VAT but only on some services.  RM pricing on Large Letter is really good though, the majority of airsoft parts can fit into a Large Letter box fine, hence the cool £1.50 shipping fee

Decided to go try something new and got a zci 229mm, zci plastic hop and a guarder sp100 spring (mine is a 110 currently) from ak2m4. Was heavily debating between a pdi/prommy barrel or the zci solution, but decided for the zci route as i'd fix 2 things in one go (prowin+shitty madbull barrel) at more than half the cost instead of getting a new the barrel and potentially still having it not work because of the prowin fitment issues. Both zci products came at just over £20.

Ok, zci setup is top notch. Works perfectly. Although, it over hops 0.2gs at its minimal setting at 20m, so might need to use heavier ammo or downgrade fps.

Overhopping is gods way of telling you your ammo isnt heavy enough.....
