You know what, I just realised he was mixing his names up there. I read PSP and assumed he meant the old handheld. If he means PS Vita (there's no such thing as the PSP Vita) then yes it is a powerful piece of kit (allegedly as powerful as a PS3). That doesn't however change the fact that Battlefront won't be ported for it.

Me too (master suite).

Keep at it! You'll get there. The other option would be to try and use the colour replace functions. What version of Photoshop do you have?

It's also a pretty out of date piece of kit that won't run the latest games like Star Wars Battlefront. I know, I have one.

The only time mine did that the piston was not lined up on its runner properly and was twisting as it went back.

Gun is fine. If you mean how would you change the colour of the gun in the picture to be able to work on a different base coat, depending on which version of photoshop you're using you should be able to capture the outline using the magic wand tool then use an adjustment layer to change the colour of the basic gun (hue and saturation layer). Work with your graphic layer over the top of that and you should be fine. As far as actually painting things like the faded flag over an actual gun......I can do that Here's a guitar I did with a similar pattern:

So...camo rather than "worn" then? That'll be a tan base with brown and green splodges lovingly applied with a sponge then allowed to wear off on high traffic areas. Pretty simple really. Probably a lot less work than Chocks rather impressive dry brushing work.

Yeah - my profile says it's a TM M4A1 but there's probably less than a half dozen parts that are still original (even less since I changed the outer barrel and lost the front sight post). Probably the motor, gearbox casing and the buffer tube and screw. Yeah, that's about it. Actually the inner barrel is the original but it's been cut down so yeah...not original!

Are any of these guns that have actually been painted or just photoshop mock ups?

Ah but you never mentioned any of that before...

M90 spring, chronos at about 330-335fps if I remember correctly. 300mm barrel, sorbo pad, AoE correction, original TM EG1000 motor and a Gate NanoAB mosfet.

That's exactly what's in my M4. Is niiiiiice.

Never EVER buy a CYMA M4. Ever. The AKs and M14s though are generally excellent value for money. The lower model number AKs are TM clones so have more plastic parts the CM40 models and above are VFC clones so are all metal and wood and built well. Don't let the price fool you. Excellent guns.

What would shipping be like from Poland though? Taiwangun have complete gearboxes: http://www.taiwangun.com/en/gearbox-set-v-3-cm?from=listing&campaign-id=20

Cyma. All day long.

TM - short for Tokyo Marui, manufacturer of high quality (and price) airsoft weaponry (among other things) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo_Marui WE - another manufacturer of airsoft weaponry. Quite a name in the gas blowback market but making significant inroads in the electric market too http://www.weairsoft.com/ DMR - Designated Marksman Rifle basically the weapon of a soldier fulfilling a role partway between sniper and infantryman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designated_marksman_rifle "they take 100% TM parts" - Tokyo Marui were the first to design a number of parts for airsoft (the hop up unit for example) so many other manufacturers have copied them This means that many airsoft weapons being based on Tokyo Marui designs will take Tokyo Marui parts which can be better than the manufacturers parts as the copies are usually produced to a lower cost. Often a phrase applied to sniper rifles based on the Tokyo Marui VSR10.

SanDisk would be my recommendation too. I use them in my camcorder (HD Sony jobber) and they're great if a little more pricey. Pixmania usually have the best prices.

Welcome! You could try here: http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/12854-new-player-guides-info/ What sort of things are you looking for? Any terms you've already seen and need to know?

Airlab order just arrived, bits for the AK and a Hunter Seeker AR clip - no more V2 anti reversal woes for me!

If you want to get stuff 3D printed without all the tedious faffing about of buying a decent 3D printer, try www.shapeways.com Cheaper than buying your own printer and probably better quality than anything you could do yourself with a cheap printer anyway.

Jesus mate, calm down! That kind of wild spending will crash the markets!!!

Yep http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/24456-tm-1911-meu-plus-mags-and-serpa/

My TM MEU has always emptied ok but doesn't always lock back the slide. It's for sale if you're interested...

Yeah I'm pretty sure I read about these a while back on a US forum. A guy was using then in some ess fan goggles. Pretty much fog proof apparently...
