Nice work! we should have a camp out or something!

Its the initial layout and finding a decent defender! I can get a pretty decent built T5 for the price people want for a defender! Im happy with just doing what im doing at the moment, the camper is a dream which wont be a quick decision. you have the land rover now right?

If you do end up buying let me know as I found it works out cheaper buying from a 3rd party.

Yeah I shopped about for a while and self build is by far the best way to considering some of the prefab ones I've seen dont start any lower than £45k!! Yep tried it in the garden with the full tarp set up the other evening and by far the most comfortable sleep Ive had, will be going out in thetford at some point and the lake district for a proper outing soon but so far so good! I went for the complete set up including under blanket as I wanted as much comfort and heat retention as possible (knowing what english weather is like) I've taken a lot of hints and tips from varying youtube videos to get what I think now works as a perfect set up (for me) this is by far the best channel Ive found for useful information https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbTDXDBHApa_cvcOx86yJOA

Funny you say that I have been looking at getting a VW T5 or similar to convert myself, Brother works for a company that does van instillation so if i did get stuck not like id have an issue sorting it and could be so much cheaper doing it myself.

Not airsoft related really but could be used for milsims I guess if the AO is anything like the trees etc. but I just got myself a full DD hammocks set up so I can concentrate on my other hobby which is bushcraft and wild camping. *not my picture but you get the idea

Not 'arf! If you could hear half the stuff I hear on a regular basis just following players or over hearing things while gearing up I don't think they could give out Darwin awards quick enough.

Or they are just repeating crap they have also learnt from other varying sources and not found out for themselves.... Serving people would obviously get bad knees from the weight, were talking airsoft here where people are hard pushed to wear the gear they own for any longer than 6 or so hours (even milsims I would say the same as people slope off for food, drink etc). Me personally, I have a set and I also have quite bad sciatic pain (again this is me personally) since getting a set and running them in my plate carrier its helped with the issues as my PC actually sits where its supposed to and is more evenly balanced after having a long hard look at where and how I had set up the externals, pouches etc. Yes, training plates aren't for everyone but as @BibbsOnTour mentioned they come in varying weights from 1.6kg upwards (and judging by majority of airsofters who carry way to much unnecessary shit anyway people can hardly talk about carrying to much weight). People actually thinking about their kit and setting things up right would barley notice any difference. hell I had a guy this weekend adamant he was taking three guns out to each game, two of which... guess what... stayed by the spawn the whole time. This ^ Instead of bashing the people that do have them or want to run them in whatever weight they choose why not be productive and ask questions about them and what benefits they have found from using them, again yes armed forces wear plates. They also do a lot of other things that airsofters don't do, like tab for insane amounts of hours in blistering heat not only carrying plates but ammo, weapons systems (that are a lot heavier than airsoft guns in most instances), water, radios, food, med kits.... the list is pretty long, so while I appreciate the weight of plates is adding weight to you i would hazard a pretty fucking big guess its not just the plates that would account for knee issues within the military... happy to be proven wrong if plates are the sole reason for bad knees.

I've had good results with modify rubbers and also the laylax? 9 ball, seen others using other maple leaf rubbers with good effect also. Crazy jet barrels the "in thing" at the moment with demonstrated good results.

Used both. Oshibooms are pile of shite compared to the TRMR, TRMR also fit nicely into 40mm pouches unlike the Oshiboom. While both struggle going off on softer flooring the TRMR advantages over the Oshi make it a justifiable extra cost.

Yes mate

They are also on the banner of the website, my e-mails come through almost the same time every week 🤣

Probably gets the same e-mails I do almost weekly.

Going alone is fine. I go alone to a hell of a lot of games because of varying reasons but mostly as you say friends don't want to do the same thing or it just doesn't appeal. Stirling have a kit list on their website but kit is very game dependent, Some of it is very common sense others bits you may not of thought of. This is the basic list of what they suggest for the game I'm playing but obviously that would differ massively to a game at The Tree's. Kit List; Bergen/Backpack Sleeping Kit (Bag, Bivi, Mat, Basha) Wash Kit & Toiletries Food & Water (For 24+ hours) Brew Kit/Cooking Kit Uniform & Boots Eye Protection Combat Kit (Webbing/Vest) Weapons (Airsoft) Navigation Kit (Map, Compass) Torch & Lightsticks Toolkit & Batteries Heard Horror stories as of late for other events (not run by stirling) with people turning up to games with no cold weather/we weather gear and all going home 3 hours into the game (if that!!!)

Yeah I was a bit confused when I opened the link as well TBH but then again in fairness people seem to be so caught up with wanting stuff that they will two tone anything and everything just to be able to have it before having a UKARA. We seem to have had an influx of two tone NGRS's about lately on site which surprised me to no end.

In fairness (true or not) the seller does say that it was two toned before he purchased it. The wear on the slide is a bit ugly but nothing that couldn't be sorted but at a cost (personally if it were me I'd have it stripped and cerakoted) Personally based on the prices you have posted I wouldn't say £160 is unreasonable for a mint gun but being the gun is a bit worn etc and doesn't come with any extra mags I'd say £125-£130 would be fairer but that's just my personal opinion. It could go for the £160 he's asking due to the lack of stock anywhere and if someone really wants it.
