  1. I take it that too much grease, in a gearbox, is as bad as no grease?

      It was like a mix of ear wax and dog poo.

  2. Looking at into delving into an MP5, with the exception of the NGRS, ive narrowed it down to the ICS and the Cyma? Which is closer to 1-1 on the real thing?

      In what respect? Colour, size, trades?

  3. Does anybody else start off with a solid build plan in mind, then go to look at parts and end up finding something completely different? 

     

    I planned to build a GBB MK18 out of the spares I've got, and then stumbled across some Colt Canada furniture in the green and now my mind is changed fully 😂

      I have about three half assed projects on the go at any one time all because I started down one path and got distracted by another while I was researching the right parts (SR25, I'm looking at you).

       

      Plus all the gear I bought because there's a loadout I absolutely have to do and never quite got around to finding just the right shade of tan for the compass pouch so it's been abandoned (there's a chest rig in the classifieds that will attest to this).

  4. Welcome Sofie, whatever dad posts in the "what I've just bought" thread, you can't tell mum about it😏

      also - the reply to "how much did that cost?" is ALWAYS "£30".

  5. Been casually looking at RIFs for the last few days but how do you know what's good out of the box and what's not? 

    1. Lozart

      Lozart

      Very little is actually "good" out of the box, depends on your budget though. A TM is usually fine as it comes, a lot of others are in need of more power/RoF/trigger response from the get go.

    M9A4 Please and thank you.

      Yes! ALL THE M9's!

       

      Mind you, that grip looks a bit...odd.

  8. Do you use a LiPo bag for storage or just for charging?

    1. Lozart

      Lozart

      I store mine in a LiPo bag but I charge them on a desk, next to me while I get everything else ready. I mean, what's life without a bit of adventure?

  9. Super impressed by Orga and Japanese post. Ordered something like... a week ago, it was sent on the 6th and Parcelforce already attempted to deliver it yesterday (10th).

     

    And by attempt to deliver, I mean they shoved a card through my door without knocking. Getting them to redeliver it to my local post office so I'll have my VSR widebore barrel ready for this Sunday's skirmish!

      If my own experience is anything to go by, the larger part of the journey was probably through the bowels of the Post Office system!

  10. Airsoft UK facebook group is starting a website with a forum because Zuck is gonna shut down the group but on their own site they can't get shut down and people can sell RIFs.. 😂

      Does this mean we'll be getting an influx of semi-literate mouth breathers that get the AFUK part confused?

    Mrs Shamal bought a 250gm bag of dry roasted KP nuts today. £5 fucking 50p?

     

    Oh well at least we will have something for Xmas dinner. Lol

  12. Me:  Can I get a nice Colt M4 AEG in stock please?

    Shops:  Here's 1001 different  AAP/5.1 swiss-cheesed slides and OBs in every colour under the sun
     

    I guess it's what sells.. yet I never see anyone actually using guns with these parts on..?

      I guess it depends on how many speedsofters you rub shoulders with!

  17. Whats the skinny on Bulldog and Condor Plate Carriers, are they typical AliExpress Rebrand/fare, or something more?

    1. Lozart

      Lozart

      Of the three you're looking at the Condor would not be my first choice, purely because of the design of the cummerbund.

       

      That Bulldog one looks alright.

      Condor are decent enough for the money. What are you looking at?

  19. Decided I want a Spiritus Systems Microfight MK4...

    Can't decide between CB, Grey, Black or RG.

    All of the pouches and other LBE I own are CB.

    I'm leaning into Black because I'm getting rid of all my mil kit and starting to wear hiking / low vis gear. Black goes with everything (I'm primarily going to wear black and grey or black and OD) and it's one of the approved colours for OPFOR gear at stirling.

    RG looks so good though... and Green is an approved opfor gear colour too at stirling. Then there's also the appeal of sticking with CB...

    1. Lozart

      Genuine ones are still expensive so if it's in the low hundreds it's probably a good deal (depending on if it's the whole chassis and not just the front and rear bags of course).

       

      @TheFull9 might know more.

      Might be best to drop @TheFull9 a line. I don't think they're officially available outside of the US.
