"in battery" means the action is forward and the gun is ready to fire.

Good lord, no! Work somewhere that isn't air conditioned and upholstered? Are you mad?

To prepare for winter I....oh wait, I just play indoors.

I've used moscarts plenty of times. As long as you keep the seals lubed they work just fine. They have limited use in woodland but can be useful in CQB environments. The TAG rounds aren't actually allowed on most sites, the explosive ones a definite no-no too.

What he said. If you honestly think that this is beyond your abilities, take it to a shop and ask them to do it for you.

One man's excessive is another mans totally acceptable! If you can afford what you've bought without going hungry or into debt then personally I see no issue with the cost of your kit. Anyone that says otherwise is probably jealous (either of your disposable income or your gucci trousers).

Change the buffer tube or swap the pin from the original stock with the one in the ASG stock (if it will fit).

If the only protection in there is a fuse I would suggest you leave it in. Let's just say you fit a LiPo and the wiring in the gearbox wears against the side and shorts out. Do you want to blow a fuse or have your gun burst into flames?

'fraid so. There was an online petition started on FB to try and get Ares to start making them again but I have no idea how well that fared. I'm guessing that not enough people wanted them to make it worth making them anymore...

Now we're getting somewhere! Where are your guns deficiencies? What is your gun while we're at it?

Ah but I would wager the "other side" are willy waving about how accurate their loadout is...

Oh I agree with you there, the problem is that any given up grade will respond differently in almost every gun. There will be a general trend for sure (TBB will increase FPS for example) but direct comparisons are hard. For example - I needed to get my FPS down below 340 to use a gun at the Malls. M100 should be right but even an M90 pushes a couple of my guns over because I've also improved my airseal (nozzle, cylinder head, piston o-ring etc). In addition to that a combination of upgrades will change how a gun responds depending on how that particular combination works with the other component parts - the TBB you choose for an M16 won't respond the same as the same ID TBB on my M4 for example (as it has a 280mm long barrel). Maybe think about what you find a problem with your specific gun and ask if anyone has an idea to improve that aspect. And don't be offended if the answer is either "move closer" or "learn to shoot better"

To be fair it's largely irrelevant what other people say they reach; if you can hit what you're shooting at who cares what everyone elses range is?

If it's not the fuse a wire might have come loose on the motor - unscrew the base plate on the pistol grip and have a look. Don't lose the little metal disc that might fall out though. You'll need to make sure that goes back in when you put the plate back on.

When you plug in a freshly charged battery and pull the trigger does it make any noise at all? If not it could just be a blown fuse - open the fuseholder in the wiring near the battery and check it. If it makes a bit of noise in the pistol grip then chances are something has jammed.

....and so it begins.

Ah yes, airsofters and range. You may as well have asked "has anyone measured their penis".

That hasn't been in production for ages.

Gas efficiency isn't great on the M9. I'd say XDM myself because the WE HiCapa is poor and I will never recommend a Glock to anyone ever. Because reasons. Actually, save up and get a TM HK45. You won't be sorry.

I bought a spare mag for my Marui HK45. I too thought the shipping was a bit steep for a small item but as it was next day I figured that would be fine. And it was delivered the day after it was despatched. Unfortunately they just didn't bother despatching it for about 4 days. Again, no shipping notification or any other comms other than the original order confirmation.
