    Nah doubt it IIRC a 7.4V LiPo is equivalent to a 9.6V NiMh
    Gearbox upgrades should only be necessary for 11.1V LiPos / owt above 7.4 LiPo basically

    Usually orange or blue or green
     
    it has to be EASILY noticed that it is not a real or realistic looking gun
     
    jeez - read up a bit, no offense
    but have a look about - don't buy ANYTHING especially from JBBG ffs
     
    GO AND RENT AND PLAY - it isn't for everybody
    especially unfit lazy COD players - I like COD but it is a lot - no totally different to sitting on ya ar$e
     
    Excuse our sarcasim - you are getting the idea
    we get so many of these questions and yet there are so many good sticky's
     
    yes rent n play to test the water - then take it from there
    I'm sure you will be hooked but go slowly at first
    Loads of us took the plunge and bought Fantastic Quality Pro Guns from places like JBBG
    and seriously regretted it - don't rush or buy anything yet - just try it out a few times first
     
    a decent AEG starter gun will be about £125 to £150 and it WON'T come from JBBG
    that is still gonna be £200+ once you add battery/charger/goggles/mag/bb's/boots etc....
    So pop down to a local site and get playing first and you may find you like the rental guns
    or what other players are using

    If you have never played before, I would suggest going to a game and renting a gun & kit for a day.
    Reason being you don't have to spend hundreds on your own gun and gear just to find that you don't like it.

    I'd recommend full finger gloves and switching to lipo or life batteries, but other than that you've got just the stuff you need. Small torch is definitely a good one, something I forgot when first visiting a dark indoor site.
     
    End of the day as long as you have quality eye pro you can't go far wrong in airsoft.

    Thanks a lot for your input. Well, as you mentioned we are trying to differentiate. From personal experience, we have seen that competitors (that don't cater to pro's) have poor customer service and aren't very much invested in providing value.
     
    We are aiming to really give value for the airsoft enthusiast that doesn't have much money to spend, yet would like to enjoy the game.
     
    Thanks for your time

    Airsoft_Mr B reacted to TheFull9 in Is it socially acceptable (within airsoft) to wear UBACs without a rig?   
    If you're not breaking the rules or being unsafe and anybody gives you a genuinely shitty attitude over something as banal as your camo choice, know that they are a c*** and tell them to foxtrot oscar.
     
    Because they are. And they need to.


    The combat shirt design is ideal for airsoft in my opinion, I almost never wear a standard shirt (I think once in the last 4 years+ of playing). You can get an issued MTP UBACS for very little on ebay and IMHO it is the best upper torso garment for airsoft bar none (from a practicality and comfort perspective). They're rubbish in certain other ways which are irrelevant to airsoft, but they wick sweat better than anything from Crye/Arc'teryx etc which cost 10x as much.
     
    Just to clear up some abbreviation confusion in this thread:
     
    MC - Multicam, the original American pattern
    MTP - British issue
     
    Anything like MTC, MT Camo, V-Cam, MTP-compatible or Camogram etc etc (and there are many such made-up patterns out there at airsoft gear stores) are proprietary clones. Never trust what any retailer says if their product line is mainly aimed at the airsoft/cadet market. There's stuff out there labelled simple as being real MTP when it simply isn't; if you're not bothered because it's bb warz then hey that's cool. But if you don't want copy stuff you have to shop very carefully indeed.

    I don't like how there's another 'JBBG-esque' retailer. I can appreciate the attempt to differentiate from them though. With the bad customer service people have received, and other practices like overpricing from such companies -not to mention actually lying and using false advertising- the majority of the proper airsoft community are gonna probably stay away especially when there are many other competitors in the market. The new players who come here we generally try to point them towards getting a quality AEG that will be a much better long term investment.
     
    I like the idea of mystery boxes but doubt demand will be high as realistically who's going to want to pay £90-£150 for a silver or gold pack and not having an idea what they're getting? IMO would be better with pricings of £20/£50/£80 dependant on quality and quantity of items, speaking of which maybe add to the description of it a bit.

    So, from what I see, you are like BBGuns4less... But less sh*t? And a much, much better website.

    You're going to have a purchase from me in about 20 days I love mystery boxes and such. I'm going to buy a Basic (because I'm poor)

    I actually really like your website... It looks so clean and tidy, and it's so easy to navigate

    I think 90% of us on here would be lying if we hadn't bought from the 'bb gun' sites first, but then learnt about better retailers. Cheap JBBG guns are not aimed at for airsofting.
