      I agree England / the UK is pretty sh*t. :( Especially when we used to be big manufacturers and everything yet now there seems to be hardly any proper business or trade because we are so reliant on importing a load of stuff. I'm still sort of proud to be English and proud to be from Yorkshire too but I just hate how the country has gone down hill really, and the politics / more right wing Labour etc. I can say the Scandinavian countries are probably the best but as you say nowhere's p...

      go to youtube, then type 'https://www.youtube.com/html5' in the browser address window, you'll see a page with a 'request html 5 player' button. Click on that. Now when you go to youtube, your player will have the setting options to alter speeds, which the default youtube player does not have.

      All you will need to do to set it up is get over a certain number of members. The more members you can actually get the better. Then when you complain about the rules at the accommodation, you are doing it as Captain of the University Airsoft club. See if Robert Gordons has an airsoft club, if not try and get them to set one up and then use the combined membership to get a local airsoft site to run a student game on Wed afternoons at a discounted rate.

      Air is a mixture of gases, but a gas is not air.

    3. Tariq

      Tariq

      Gas guns are not technically speaking pure CO2 or Propane propelled. They only expand to equalise the pressure with the air. They are also mixed with the air around it as doing so, just adjusting the "air" mixture content to majority co2/propane ballance. Thus, air powered.

      The only possible way to get pure co2/propane power is shooting in a vacuum.

    4. Moose87

      Moose87

      Its still the C02 canister you fill it with that is the main gas. As air is mainly nitrogen. So the main gas used to to make the gun cycle is CO2 it is therefore C02 powered. Anyway you have changed your arguement from the original point. Lets stay on the fact the website is wrong and agree they need a slap

      its true, i think thats a real problem. Schools want all of their students to get good grades and go off to uni. However for the majority of jobs such as builders and shop keepers... ect "old school" jobs which are a massive part of the economy. People that stop education and go onto them type of jobs are seen as failures in the school system i think thats wrong. Maybe its different at other schools but mine was like that, there is quite a lot of vocational colleges however teacher me...

      and a lot of Romanian & Polish builders & plumbers too - must start plumbing at an earlier age than us. But us brits are a little lazy and clueless sometimes expecting stuff to come to us rather than go out and work for it. But dunno what the answer is but a balance of manual & educational/logic work/studying is best all round i reckon. Getting balance right is tricky

    3. Caliber

      I usually prefer bullpups because they are nice and compact. Not bad for a CQB/mid range mix. Mag changing isn't much of a fuss for me personally, I've never used a bullpup but I tend to overstay my welcome behind cover whilst changing mag anyway, so I can allow time for a slightly longer reload and then some. Bullpup shotguns seem more practical aswell, especially if you single load your shells rather than use a mag because that's a faff about in the first place.

      If your sight is insured then the fact they are not UKARA registered should not make a difference to you buying a RIF. As long as your a member of the site then you have a defence. Might just mean you would have to give the shop your membership number to the shop so that they confirm it with the site you play at.

    3. Zak Da Mack

      Zak Da Mack

      My site is insured, but it's not UKARA registered, but the shop is. Unfortunately, there are no membership logs/numbers at our site either

    4. BBrotherwood

      BBrotherwood

      Yh, in that case its a bit of a problem unless you can get the site owner to vouch for you and the shop accepts that. Might be worth asking him if he would be willing to sign a letter from his company saying that you are a skirmisher?

      DadMail is notoriously unreliable. I'm sure your Dad will get around to it, once he has finished watching Arrow season 2. MumMail would have been faster, but you have to clean your flat before the delivery :D

      DadMail is the only mail service which is able to deliver to Aberdeen in a reasonably quick time. Delivery time using DadMail is every Wednesday at 10:14am directly outside of my flat, which is a lot faster than MumMail, which takes upwards of 1 month to deliver to Aberdeen. Both are more reliable than BroMail- which takes at least THREE months to get to my flat due to the BroMail deliveryman being completely unable to deliver using a car. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

      To be honest, the reason that I want the pistol is because I despise gas weaponry. My current pistol has let me down faaar to often to make me even consider a gas pistol for the forseeable future. I may be lucky and attain an extra £50 (exam results). I might be able to purchase a better rifle (ideas?)

      Cyma 28 range - anything but the C, 28A I own - chuck any battery in stock etc.... - the others mostly req stick battery again, pain if you got a scope mounted. Keep it simple and practical with just some subtle tweaks/touches is my general feeling, maybe more important than some "different" or odd looking variations.

    3. TacMaster

      TacMaster

      The Bolt rifle is neither an AK nor an M4- it's an SR-47, an experimental rifle designed for US special forces which carry out operations behind enemy lines, where supply of 5.56 is difficult and AK mags & ammo is abundant.

      Another factor is the gunshot sound- an AK sounds different to an M4 when fired, so if any locals heard M4 fire they'd tell their local Taliban unit. I believe there are only 6 SR-47s in existence, and 4 are in active service despite mechanical issues

    4. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      well looking at the AIRSOFT version - ver 2 gearbox & receivers that looks like a butchered M4 to take AK mag, as well as stock & front end too - it appears to look like a M4 than AK setup. But cheers for info on this rare gun, clever stuff allowing to use/sound more like AK than M4

      Airsoft-Ed

      I think the golf ball thing has been tried before, the issue is that the dimples aren't large enough to actually make that much difference. The scale is just too small to make use of it properly.

      Plus, adding dimples to the surface of a BB is probably going to make the hop less consistent because the contact area isn't going to be the same each time.

       

      But anyway, considering they tried to make it sound so overly scientific, I don't understand how they failed to men...
