The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Lozart replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Is that black or dark brown you've used for the camo on the M14? Do you have a link for the AIM? -
PMR doesn't need a licence, but you're also only supposed to use a radio with .5W output and a fixed antenna so technically you shouldn't use those frequencies with a UV5R. For the other frequencies yes, you do need a licence. The business light licence is the easiest to get (mine was £75 for a 5 year validity) as it doesn't require exams be passed. That said, many sites have their own licence that will cover you for use on their site (as long as you stick to their approved frequencies) added to which, as long as you're not using Emergency Services frequencies then the chances of actually getting caught and prosecuted are incredibly slim. Not that I'm encouraging ANYONE to break the law. In terms of setting up, get a programming cable and download a copy of CHiRP. That has a preset group of frequencies you can download to your radio that lines up with the Business light licenced frequencies.

It's funny, I haven't looked at TG for pricing for so long that I seem to have missed the bit where they made everything expensive. Their pricing is largely irrelevant seeing as they won't ship to here anyway (unless you want to pay PB to mark it up on top of course).

Having been spoiled by playing at The Mall I find all "proper" CQB sites to be far too small. And full of speedsofters.

Classic Army MP5SD, Hi-Cap Mag compatibility?

Sorry, you'll need the box/the kindness of someone else near you that has one.

Hang on - are you zeroing the scope off the gun then mounting it and it's no longer central?

You know, not everything is a conspiracy to rip off consumers.

This is the parent company of Warhead Industries: https://www.ko-technologies.com/ both they and Warhead are pretty open about how they OEM for lots of other people. It's ENTIRELY possible that a lot of other brushless AEG motors are being made by them but in no way does that mean they are the same.

You sure about that? Warheads parent company is literally a motor manufacturer!

If you buy one through Novritsch then all the UK warranty repairs are handled by Negative Airsoft.

for describing the condition of ones RIF when it returns from the average "site tech" - FUBAR - Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition.

Bear in mind that the flash hider on that goes inside the handguard. You'll need to make sure that whatever tracer unit you get is no bigger diameter than will fit inside the same space.

Sources of thrust bearings for spring guides
Lozart replied to The_Lord_Poncho's topic in Electric Guns
Thrust bearings don't come that slim. The bearings on spring guides aren't that size either, bearing guides are made in two/three parts that are threaded together, the inside diameter of the thrust bearings on them is nowhere near 11mm. It's more like 6-7mm which IS a size you'll find. However, you won't be able to fit them to your fixed spring guides. If you have a bearing on the back of your piston head then you don't need one on your spring guide anyway. Personally I wouldn't trust any bearing that you can buy from AliExpress for a few pence anyway! This is most likely the sort of price you'd be looking at for something half decent https://simplybearings.co.uk/shop/p504954/F8-16G-Budget-Single-Thrust-Ball-Bearing-with-Grooved-Washers-8x16x5mm/product_info.html -
and so it begins again...

Ares Alpha is more than just a map though. It's particularly good if you have a team/group of mates or are playing a Milsim type event where many of your team or squad all have the app installed. It works as a Blue Force Tracker, can me used to issue movement commands, manages the heirarchy and even has an SOS function if you've managed to fall down a hole and you need assistance. As to your question - for your average Sunday skirmish? Probably not but if you're on a new site then maybe. For a milsim/filmsim/battlesim then yes, maybe you would for all the reasons above.

I sold a couple of guns to a buddy (including an old TM SPAS 12). I'll be reacquiring them along with the rest of his collection as he's moved to Australia and the guy that was looking after them wants the space in his shed back!
-
It'll be lack of staff to clear items. How does it stack up cost wise with all the added fees and tax?
-
I have the CA MP5K and MP5A3. They're both bombproof. The K is a lot older and more basic but the A3 is relatively new and now comes with a Mosfet (basic but functional). Both great guns and I would personally choose them over others as they still make guns with SEF lowers which is clearly the superior choice. Clearly.
