  1. I was just about to link one of those as well http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Micro-T1-Red-Dot-Sight-QD-Mount-Killflash-included-T-1-Scope-Airsoft-Black-UK-/131126903814?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1e87c5c406 And handy that it includes a killflash to stop the lens getting shot out (which does happen)
  2. 99% of them are all gonna be produced by the same manufacturer, then re-branded by WE etc. The 'Reflex' style red dot sights for example are all the same as far as I know except some cost more because of the name. They're under £20 on eBay. One exception appears to be Swiss Arms because they've been recommended to work well and hold up on GBBRs which would suggest they are better quality. http://www.actionhobbies.co.uk/Swiss-Arms-Mini-Dot-Sight_AS8C4.aspx#.VT5yfyFVhBc
  3. Opinions on JG AUGs? I've seen lots of things saying they're bad, but ok once upgraded? Also is it worth getting the A1 version, is the scope any good?

      Unless you specifically want an A1 get an A2. You can fit what you like to it then.

      I kind of wanted an A1 because I think it looks a lot better (and thought it'd fit loadouts better cos it doesn't look like just a civ variant...but ofc the Australians have upgraded their F88s a lot since they first adopted the AUG so the old style is obsolete now anyway)

      And the A1 is about £30 more and if the scope it a bit sh*t then would be a waste . Yeah I should get the A2

      Cheers btw guys

      A2 is a very very poor representation of any weapon produced by Styer/Thale unfortunetly. If you dont wear a face mask the scope on the A1 is just in the sweet spot. With a face mask its very awkward. It is slightly magnified which helps with picking stuff out.

  4. Welcome! Unfortunately there aren't really any good options for eye pro if you wear glasses. I only know Bolle PILOT (PILOPSI) goggles fit over glasses but they are designed for safety and are bright orange inside. Looks a bit shit but nothing else would work for my dad.
  5. Aren't there any airgun forums...?
  6. There is actually a review section, but no worries. Might get moved by a mod. It's a tight fit because WE Glocks are not exactly 1:1 scale and the frame is slightly wider than the real firearm.
  7. agh I'm supposed to be saving money...gone and bought a Platatac SAS Smock and GBH (boonie hat) in AUSCAM DPCU So that's ANOTHER unnecessary loadout started couldn't help it though Since I'm getting an AUG in November might as well do an Aussie inspired loadout Was going to get a JG AUG A2 (£86 - TaiwanGun) but could get an A1 instead for £115, so not based off the F88 but close enough. Probably won't notice the differences between the JG and TM (which is based off the Australian version) and I could buy the Austeyr flash hider.
  8. What are you specifically wanting to lube in the gun? Silicone oil will damage parts like the hop rubber. To be safe you should only use it for the designated purpose which as far as I know is just for adding to your magazines.
  9. I'm taking it that you're not a UK airsofter?
  10. AFAIK Swiss Arms optics are good. I think it was PT who said so (who has a G5)...anyway Action Hobbies sell some. There's also a real steelbrand that is usually sold on Amazon, someone else will probably mention it later, which is well priced. (because it's not the best but above airsoft level so can survive recoil, and it's Chinese made IIRC) WE probably won't be up to the job - 99% of optics are the same OEM'd product re-branded by different companies. In fact I saw someone had used one recently on a GBBR and yeah it broke. Just the brand name pushing the price up. Real sights would be bought from places like LANTAC (lannertactical.com) UK Tactical, Tactical Kit / Gunpoint Gear...various hunting shops like Uttings.co.uk, Riflecraft (they do a very competetively priced Vortex red dot for ~ £140 which is good compared to an at least £400+ Aimpoint or EOTech considering we're only looking at using them on airsoft guns)
  11. Doubt it, the auctions don't know the law / give a shit. I've been told about this before as my dad has seen airsoft guns for sale before at auctions.
  12. The ASG B&T Tracer Unit is the best value for money, anything else cheaper than that (Big Dragon) will be sh*t. And as you said owt else is pretty expensive (TM / Madbull etc) Were £39 from Patrol Base and they sell WE and Blaster tracer BBs there too. The thread on the barrel will be 14mm, it's literally only a handful of guns which have anything else (16mm on the KWA Kriss Vector for example, 22mm IIRC on sniper rifles) what you need to know is if it's CW or CCW Again only a few guns like G&Ps are CW though. External parts aren't going to be essential, but like you would with a real gun don't put too much unnecessary sh*t on it otherwise you're just gonna have a heavier, bulkier / less manoeuvrable gun with attachments that probably aren't even being used. Also I wouldn't recommend getting any magnified optics for airsoft, as you aren't shooting very far. in fact most of the time you don't need an optic at all in my experience, you are better off just looking at your target and watching the BBs, If you are doing longer range stuff say you're a sniper / DM then yeah but otherwise not much point spending money on a scope. As said by Tac a red dot sight will be better. I'm pretty sure if it's a scope it's an actual magnified optic, so you don't call a red dot a scope because there's no magnification. Correct me if I'm wrong ofc :|
  13. There's only Classic Army and JG as far as I know. Similarly priced as well I think (in the UK) Classic Army I would assume are going to be the better manufacturer. ASG ones are just re-branded JGs with Steyr trades.
  14. They're probably the same internally so whichever you prefer the look of really. And yeah, the MOSFET is worth it. Hard wired will provide more feature and protection but if it's the one I think it is you can simply plug it in as well.
  15. Cheers Mack found em now http://www.ebairsoft.com/cargo10-tactical-pants-with-inside-pads-p-6361.html http://www.aliexpress.com/item/TMC1909-RG-Cargo-10-m-knee-pants-with-inner-lining-M-L-XL-free-shipping/1667343574.html Don't really trust ebairsoft though Also bought AI mag today Don't like how the whole Viper section is basically an advert though Just seems to give a description of each product (like you'd find on the website) not a review at all like I was expecting :\
  16. Clumpy mate I'm interested in doing a ranger green loadout, what trousers are those / where'd you get them from? Thanks!
  17. My dad has a Swiss Arms gun bag from Patrol Base, I use a Kombat UK double rifle bag (from Flecktarn for ~ £15) and also an SRC rifle case Both bags are good and do the job well
  18. There's lots of different Daniel Defense rail systems they don't just make one and they attach in different ways
  19. 0241 Tactical Woodland MARPAT Fleece Neck Gaiter Buying Helikon MARPAT Trousers later today
  20. AFAIK, the Devgru version of the TM 416 is just the same as the original standard one except with a foregrip and suppressor? And a different stock? Can't remember exactly. Anyway it's like £50-£80 extra so you could potentially save a bit there just thought it might be worth mentioning
  21. I think VFC are supposed to make good 416/417s too? But as far as I know they're around the same price as Tokyo Marui anyway, so might as well go for the TM. ICS make the best AEG L85 from what I've heard, there's G&G and Ares ones but they aren't as good and 99% of people probably have the ICS. Thing to remember is it'd be another £100 or so for a Daniel Defense rail which is a basically a necessity, maybe cheaper...look second hand / eBay and all that The Tippmann is CO2 or HPA (as in like a paintball gun basically, Polarstars are the same thing if you've heard of those) so you run it either off an air tank with a hose or use 80 round mags with one 12g CO2 cartridge in each, which should last those 80 rounds then you drop another in.
