You may just be lucky/have insanely strong ankles but trust me, ankle support is NOT overrated. The type of ankle support offered by most walking boots however...ehhhh... A properly laced, 8" tall boot WILL make a difference to how well your ankles survive if you happen to turn your foot in a rabbit hole (of course, if you're not playing outdoors it's less likely but still).

This isn't my first rodeo

My FPS varies by more than that and I don't get flyers like you seem to!

Fixed that for you.

Yes, he's ex-military but that doesn't mean he's a CQB expert. Plus it's more of the same "CHEETER EXPOSED!!!!!" "EX SQUADDIE DESTROYS AT AIRSOFT" clickbait bullshit. Personally, I'd recommend this guy https://www.youtube.com/user/rwiley1690 (active duty SWAT officer that also plays airsoft) or these guys

If you're not playing as a team then you'll learn about as much that's useful on You Tube. Room clearing drills and tactics are all about teamwork, on your own, once you've learnt the basics of the fatal funnel and pieing corners you're pretty much covered.

How about the waterproof version of the same boot? https://tactree.co.uk/511-speed-3-0-wp-boots Personally I use these https://www.nightgearstore.com/Merrell-2-8-inch-Response-WP-Boots/4822026748ng.htm?colour=Tactical+Black&sku=1278370&productid=342206&gclid=CjwKCAjwndCKBhAkEiwAgSDKQRKwmrMmCnls6G1ovtGHsRkQBNI2ASz-LxuYg19PiKqkFaqlcU-7KBoCtpcQAvD_BwE because Mereell boots always fit me well.

@parramoom bear in mind that those (or indeed any fire proof overalls) are going to be VERY warm!

Palm oil isn't the demon product everyone seems to think though. It has a far denser output for acre than standard veg oil crops so if you force the palm oil producers to abandon it they will actually have to deforest a BIGGER area which is then WORSE for environmental impact. Better to regulate it properly now that it's already there. Plant based packaging is still a good idea though.

Physical adaptations to your play style, yes. Spunking money on chasing performance to the nth degree, no. Unless you just want to tinker and you enjoy that, in which case more power to you! That said, if it's your only gun then do the basics and then get out and play more. Save up and buy a speedyboi SSG1 and THEN start tearing into the CM16 (assuming that by that point you still want to be doing the whole Dye mask, SpeedQB thing of course).

Here's an off the wall idea - is the end of the barrel clear of any obstructions? Does it behave the same way if you take the flash hider off for instance?

What ammo are you using, what range are you actually getting and have you properly adjusted the hop?

Couple of things to consider - get a better ventilated design of helmet - Team Wendy, Air Frame etc all vent better than a FAST helmet (I have all three styles) if you're dead set on putting fans in, take a look at what the cosplay guys do (it's pretty common in Stormtrooper helmets) https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/36631-how-to-diy-usb-helmet-fans-no-more-9v-or-aas/ think about things like where your battery will go (I'd suggest using an NVG battery holder on the back) make sure the helmet ventilates well in the first place - the cheap Emerson helmets come with a solid polystyrene liner, whereas the FMA ones come with individual pads for example

If the cosplay crowd are anything to go by, every fucker in Starfleet is an Admiral!

It's a set of Nomex overalls, not shirt and trousers. https://arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/160651-iranian-embassy-siege80s-sas-loadout/ There's plenty of black overalls on Military 1st https://www.military1st.co.uk/11730002-mil-tec-swat-overall-black.html https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221958464312?mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338364431&customid=221958464312_1&toolid=11000 Genuine issue vest https://www.fieldtextiles.co.uk/shop/clothing/jackets/sbs-sas-assault-vest-1123539.html (probably a bit steep but there's repros out there)

Errrmmm....where did you go play?

etc...

It's your gun so you do you but why so many red dots?

Don't over think it.

This is the thing for me. There's a huge difference between trying to complete a loadout and walting and it seems that most of the people getting all hot and bothered about "stolen valour" aren't actually servicemen at all but wannabe try hards. I mean yes, there's the whole "don't wear something if it has to be earned" like a commando insignia or whatever but if ANYONE tells me that they think a 14 year old kid or some overweight, middle aged weekend warrior is honestly trying to make out that they served by wearing an SAS badge to a Sunday skirmish then they're being bell ends. The old boys covered in gongs at remembrance services or people trying to pass themselves off for a discount or special treatment are the problem, not a few airsofters looking to replicate a 90's Delta operator!

Personally, I'd fit a Gate Titan or Aster but Perun V2 Hybrid would also work. Basically anything that senses the gear rotation to be able to stop it in the same place each time. That being said, it doesn't actually matter all that much unless you're getting feeding issues or you're trying to get accurate pre-cocking. Inconsistent hop is unlikely to be adversely affected by the piston not stopping in the same place. I'd also get rid of all that bloody PTFE tape. There doesn't look to be much in the way of lubrication either (although that may just be the picture).

That'll be your problem then.

I have a similar one (old Ferro Concepts jobber) and it's good but it does have its limitations. It's not great for transitioning from right to left shoulders, it doesn't control your gun AT ALL when you swap to your sidearm and it's a faff to change setup (from PC to chest rig for example).

Are you running a cycle completion mosfet or precocking based on time?
