I can honestly say I've never blown a 'fet. I have fitted several (mostly Gate ones - Nano in my M4, Pico in my AK - and a BTC in my SCAR, plus others in friends guns). Maybe because I used to do this kind of stuff for a living? Peoples complete inability to solder doesn't seem to put them off having a go.

Try Apextac on ebay. Night Evolution or FMA both do replacement switches. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/APEXTAC/Switch-/_i.html?_fsub=660729719&_sid=595532459&_trksid=p4634.c0.m322

Best not go to gunfire.pl then...

ebay is probably your friend here - look for closed cell foam sleeve, or neoprene sleeve.

Try this: http://www.componentforce.co.uk/product/206/FG41/order or ebay.

Anything and everything. I've pretty much stopped painting at the minute but I've done loads of different stuff over the years!

Blimey....you're selling yourself short there mate. Do you just do guns or have you looked at the rest of the custom paint market?

Came with the card... Good to know I've made a good choice though

Yay! Got myself a new GPU! So it's out with the old.....

Hey Chris. I believe it was me that pointed you here! Welcome to the forum. Ignore the miserable ones by the way, we're mostly friendly.

Well...if we keep this curmudgeonly behaviour up we'll have no worries about FB kids joining and spoiling the ambience...

I know there's been a few join today that were on UKAC on FB but I think it's only right they have a fair crack of the whip same as everyone else.

It's a valid point but I always found that ghillie suits are a pain in the arse to move around in undergrowth so unless you have a role that suits being stationary for a while (like being a sniper) they're probably not worth the hassle.

So errrmmmm....where the pics at?

Yes.

The holes in the top might work, but the ones along the front will most likely be blocked by the impact liner.

That's the thing though - if it lasts 5 years and then dies everyone will still say "ooh...it's Ares what did you expect?".

Ahhh yes....I remember it well. In fact, I'll be in my bunk...

That actually made me LOL. You are joking though....right?

I've only just come online.

There is an awful lot of brands in airsoft where "are shit" seems to be freely interchangeable with "used to be shit but have actually got their act together and make fairly decent kit now, but that doesn't fit with my prejudiced world view so I'm going to ignore it". Ares USED to be awful. The newer guns are actually not bad at all but I struggle to see how they justify the relatively high cost considering their once poor reputation. Unfortunately airsofters as a breed are quick to condemn and slow to forget.

Have a look through the thread. You'll find that question answered pretty quickly. Also I have been mostly listening to....

Yeah....that's not what I meant but if it floats your boat...

That is a genuine concern for me. I have a customer facing job so I need to take into consideration that not all our customers would relate well to me running around with guns at the weekend!
