A well intentioned point but as suggested above unfortunately an M100 spring will give you a different FPS in pretty much every gun you put it in. Not to mention that not all M100 springs are created equal. Yes, it's a good starting point but as someone that has had upwards of 350 from an M90 I can tell you for sure that there is no hard and fast rule for the FPS you'll get from a spring!

It's never that easy.

Posties been! (Well...UPS man but you get the idea)

I have one of their assault packs. Very decent for the money. Not Chinese crap.

Can we get all his sales threads here locked? Seems this bloke is a serial scammer. He's got several items for sale now.

The IMAX B6 DOES come with Tamiya connectors however it doesn't come with a mains plug (needs a 12V power supply. The one to get is the IMAX B6AC which has a built in power supply so has a mains lead (it can also be powered by 12V DC battery but not ONLY 12V).

I was going to echo what BC said up there. Glad you got it sorted!

No. Way too hot for me. Does your mask not have a nose piece already?

To be honest unless you wear a full face mask you're ALWAYS going to get hit in that one tiny bit of unprotected skin. It's Sod's Law. As for the sweat thing? Yeah, I hear you. The buff WILL make you sweat like a paedophile in Mothercare purely because it's going to restrict airflow.

There's certainly an amount of tacticool involved I'm sure but for many (I for one) it's more to do with comfort and ankle support. I'm not a big rufty tufty ex soldier so I don't have the fitness to not notice the weight of heavy boots nor do I use my boots enough to batter them into submission so they need to be light and flexible from the off. I used to use my old work Magnum Patrol safety boots but I found that whilst incredibly comfortable they got heavy by the end of the day (steel toecaps, see). hence I started doing the self same thing plenty of folks do and got sucked into the "must buy super leet Zephyr GTX nothing else will do" thing. Easily done really. Having said that at the time the only boots Viper were doing only came in multiglam (just not me) and decent Magnums have got expensive. So much so that when I managed to find a pair of Sawtooths on ebay from the US they weren't much pricier than a high end pair of Magnums over here.

Pretty sure squaddies manage to do a bit of running about in them..... There's loads of lightweight walking style boots that get co-opted for military use and then spawn military versions (Lowa Zephyr springs to mind) but you didn't really give a limit on cost so it's difficult to suggest the right kind of thing really. Personally I use Merrel Sawtooths but they're like rocking horse poo these days and won't give you much change from £120 a pair. Do you need them to be waterproof for outdoor games or light and grippy for CQB?

I agree. It doesn't matter if you're selling guns, coffee or corn flakes - customer service is still the same regardless of retail stream. Problem is that a lot of customers (of all shops) are actually utter clueless dicks. Try popping into your local independent record store sometime and see who is propping up the counter. No different than your average airsoft shop. You'll get a lot of Saturday browsers who will never actually buy anything but want to try every. Single. Thing! I am increasingly in agreement with an article I read on LinkedIn that basically stated that there's every possibility that if you get bad customer service it's actually because you're a bad customer! The big issue facing UK based bricks and mortar retailers is that UK customers don't actually understand the meaning of "cost of sale" and will repeatedly ask for discounts because they can "buy it cheaper online". Now I realise that in this day and age when money is tight people will do whatever they can to save a few quid. I've done it myself. But then I don't go straight into Socom at the weekend and bleat to Laurence about how much cheaper I got something than he would be able to sell it to me.

If you like the fit and feel of Magnums there are much lighter versions out there. Also have a look at the Viper boots if you don't want to spend silly money!

This. But it could well be a Classic Army. What do the markings say on the fire selector? Is it three pictures of bullets or does it say S E F?

Cool. I grew up in Camberley, live in Basingstoke now. You should definitely come to the Malls!

Blimey, trip hop has gone downhill since I stopped taking shitloads of drugs!

Hello from Basingstoke! Where in Surrey are you?

I always declare it. That way there's no debate if there's an issue. Make sure you get sufficient insurance too.

A fuse is good to have but not essential. The one I have right now is not mine and it's the A5 with a sliding stock so the battery is in the foregrip. I'd suggest bubble wrap if it's rattling about though.

Good choice.

That'll be the SMG8

In that case I'd suggest ditching the extension wire. Or if your battery lead is too short get a new lead from www.componentshop.co.uk
