  1. Most of you probably don't know that my head gear consists of helmet, glasses and lower mesh face mask. I've been using this for over a year now. There's a couple of problems I've encountered since playing this way: -mesh mask feels like it's pushing my face through a siv -loads of straps -Glasses constantly fog up -The small gaps between glasses and mesh/helmet seem to be a BB magnet To over come some of these problems I padded out the mesh mask and connected the mask directly to the helmet to get rid of the straps. This made made a huge different in comfort. The last couple of weeks I've been noticing every head shot I take always seems to get me either in the forehead between my glasses and helmet or between my glasses and mask. Trawling through youtube I seen a setup where the guy cut off the masks straps completly and used a balaclava or a thin buff type bandana to hold the mask into place. I've acquired some goggles and tried it and it completely covers my face now and it so much more comfy. I'm just wondering if anybody else has tried this? My worry is the bandana will hold in too much heat and it'll be like I'm playing in a constant down pour of sweat! I'm just after some opinions before I remould the mask and cut off the straps. As you can see I took a BB right between the eyes last week
  2. They became your everyday shoes? I wouldn't be allowed out the house in them!
  3. I understand that but you can say that about any shop in any industry. That's the world we live in today, people like to browse regardless if they want to buy something or not. Most shops I've been into have never been too full where the staff can't just ask a customer if they needed help with anything. I know if it were my staff looking after my shop I'd be pushing them to make the most out of every potential customer.
  4. I find this my biggest gripe about going into airsoft shops. when I first started airsoft I took my gun into Zero one and I had noob written all over me. I wondered in there with a TM MP5 and a handful of cash and said I wanted the FPS as high as they could get it. Instead of talking me through the process I was told it's a TM so they're fine standard and just to leave it. Another customer walked in after that and the guy behind the counter just ignored me. I've tried Combat south a few times too. While I bought my pistol from there I found the whole shop to be awkward. The staff were friendly but just didn't seem interested in what I want to buy and more interested in their mates who seem to be in there everytime I go in. Maybe it's me, I don't know. Accessories I'll buy overseas but with guns I can't be bothered messing with customs so I'll pay the bit extra in the UK.
  5. You can buy go-pro clones off ebay if all you want to use it for is airsoft. They're about £35, so no bother is it breaks.
  6. I moved to the uk from Canada with no GCSE's. After doing a year in college and failing AS levels I landed an apprentiship in crane engineering. Really I should of had a few GCSEs to get it but it goes to show grades aren't everything. I'm now 25 and work on the docks making £45k+
  7. It's a bit of everything that shed. It's my airsoft storage, the Mrs. Sewing/craft storage, garden tool and it's also used as a back fence in the garden.
  8. Doesn't sound like it's changed much in over a year. It's a shame really as the site is pretty good.
  9. Definitely getting one, maybe two!
  10. I always see stuff like this on 'customs' type shows. I remember one guy in Australia had the whole arrival area evacuated because of a belt buckle in the shape of a grenade. I always what kind of person does that... Haha
  11. Just finished resident evil 2 and seen a marui logo on the credits. I thought their biohazard series was a recent thing?

      I played dino crisis, only slightly remember it. Silent hill freaked me out as a kid. Mainly because I didn't know what was going on and them nurses chasing you in the dark!

      Haha did you see square Enix release ff7 on the ps4? They got everyone excited when it's the same version only slightly more upscale graphics.

      nope but classic flogging a dead horse malarky. yup oldies were brill but very dated now - still most new stuff is just re-doing (sometimes badly) the old stuff just with hd graphics

  12. It would could down to customs. If they couldn't see a reason for you to have one it'd probably be destroyed. Better off just sticking it out and getting ukara registered and buy in the UK.
  13. It's up to the seller to make sure you have a defence to buy it, You would be in the clear. Though someone could gift it you and everything would be legit.
  14. According to this; https://www.usc.edu/CSSF/Current/Projects/J1319.pdf Roughly year and half to two years.
  15. Would rather use the money to get my usual blasters than to just piss about in the garden.
  16. Not really. It's just a cupboard full of toys which I have a site membership card to prove I play with. I don't shoot them in the garden (mainly because I hate BBs being everywhere) so no reason for neighbours to complain.
  17. Pretty much done for now until I get the work top in; Haha even installed a little light;
  18. Had a little organise after nightshift today. Just need to stain the wood to blend it in;
  19. I was thinking of mounting them on the door with a little lip shelf on the bottom of the door and a bit of bungee cord at the top. Good idea?
  20. Overall it's only really cost me about £250, Excluding the cost of the decking. My dad got me the shed for xmas which was about £600, I put £100 towards that. £80 for insulation Plastic membrane was free from work Pallets were free from work £45 for 1"x1" planks £20 for sockets Wiring, comsumer unit, MCBs, light switch all came from work. I should have a nice little workshop out there once it's finished. Can't wait, I've put actual airsofting on hold for the last 3 months whilst this project is going on. Thanks for the kind words!
  21. Thanks man! Took me ages. Not sure if you noticed but the walls are all old pallets. Took me ages stripping them apart. I'm getting a kitchen counter top at the end of the month to make a desk between the two cupboards so I can strip my gun and leave it knowing bits won't wander off
