  1. Thinking about getting back into this after a couple of years out, but my nearest site requires I go there four times in a year to maintain my UKARA. Owning toy guns is a pain in the backside.

     

    Edit... and they want a £10 admin fee. I remember going once a year to your site good enough to maintain it! After you've done your visits to register of course.

      some retailers will let you buy without UKARA, just some proof that you've played before etc.  Even looking at this forum and seeing you've sold a MWS in 2021 would perhaps be enough.

      Much like dating, I'm not sure I could face the rejection! 😂

      Give Graeme a call at Tactical Geordies, he sells NGRS and explain the situation.  The whole UKARA defence kinda needs updating.  I did discuss with a few people about a new system to make it more flexible but quite a lot of work involved.  When I touted the idea people seems split 50/50 on the idea.

  2. Someone make me a sensible offer on my MWS please. Kthanksbye.

      Bottom half is plainly superior

  3. Have apparently reached my limit of adverts for the week, but have so much more to sell. Rage.

      I've just spent my pocket money for now otherwise might have checked out your goodies.😎

  4. UPS Sending me forms to import a Toy AK dust cover... yay.

     

    This isn't a restricted item in any way, even if it was a real AK dust cover it isn't a pressure bearing part.

      I didn't put my UKARA in (Expired during lockdown anyway!)

       

      Put "No" to everything on the form and finished it off with "This is a toy part, not a RIF and not subject to any import restrictions"

       

      Much to my surprise, it has been released from customs!

  5. F*$%ing parcelforce. Why give me the option to pay for Saturday delivery if you're not going to bloody bother.

     

    Excellent service from Samoon, and the international part of the shipping, getting my parcel from Taiwan to the UK in 3 days! It's only when it's in the hands of sodding Parcelforce it falls apart. 

     

    Bollocks.

     

    Edit: after much effective Karening, my parcel is now coming today!

      I'm at work, all I want to do is have a play around. Got that summer recoil spring fitted, so I'd like to see how it copes on a mag dump with the added tension.

      See what you are doing is fiddling already - leave it alone :P

  6. Unpopular opinion (not meant to upset, more promote discussion) - If you're looking at a way to improve your airsoft experience, instead of buying kit, work on your personal fitness. 

     

    Since July I've lost 2 stone, and greatly improved my cardio and flexibility. I feel much more effective as a player now.

      Refined sugar has no place in any decent diet, glad to see the back of it.

       

      I've gone ahead and created a topic, as Jedi said.

      Personally I tend to use airsoft for fitness as well as fun - but a 200 acre site in the North Wales hills will do that for you!

       

      That and mowing three lawns totally about a third of an acre and on the side of a hill help too, especially pushing around a non self-propelled petrol lawnmower after first dragging it up to the top of the flaming hill (which is higher than the roof of the house).

       

      Unfortunately the recent month and a half of little activity mean I need to start getting back out again very soon as I've put on a bit of weight (think dad-bod not morbidly obese).  Sadly my age doesn't help too much either, although my brain still thinks I'm in my early twenties my body is painfully aware that I'm in my late forties!!

       

      As for losing weight and keeping it off, I subscribe to a very simple formula: eat less and move more.  Works for me!

      Same just had a message from them myself. Thought it was a bit off sounding.

      And me too. Can we just ban the IP?

    4. L3wisD

      L3wisD

      They've already been banned. Please, please make sure you report any post, or PM that you think is fishy, it really helps us action against these melters as soon as possible.

  8. Is a gun build ever truly finished?

      Yes. When the only thing you're missing hasn't been released yet.

      And you will probably never get it because the dude literally quit.

       

       

       

       

       

       

      Fuck you Dan.
