Sorted that. It's insulated and tanked the inside with a plastic wrap so any leaks wouldn't get anything wet. When the heater is on it stays warm for ages

Sorry for the mass pictures, it's was easier to show than to describe.

Hi all! I've had a busy year this year. I bought my first house in May. Moving from a flat to a house my natural thought was 'more storage for airsoft stuff!'. As it was the spare bedroom was my dumping ground for my crap. The back garden was a mess so Ive cleaned it up, threw a decking down and I'm in the process of creating a man cave! From this; To this!; I've sorted the inside out by sectioning off an area for garden tools and the rest for airsoft stuff! I've only just started with the inside of the cupboard. I'm wondering if anyone else has a similar set up, and if so what does it look like?

I got mine used for £10 from military1st I think? I bought a cheap new one and found it to be massive and wasn't a nice shape.

SNAP! I took this picture when I first bought it over a year ago. The reflective tape gets pretty messed up throwing it against hard surfaces. Mines red and white reflective with my name on it too I also use the same molle pouch!

Also keep in mind if you get a full metal toothed piston and don't put it back together properly you will damage the gears aswell as the piston. This is the reason I stick with plastic, if it goes wrong it's usually a cheaper repair. All you really need is the first tooth in metal.

I used Allen keys. My GB was held together by Allen screws so just used what was nearby.

That's horrible news. I was planning on visiting it soon. You'll have to let us all know when your back up and running!

As far as I'm aware they're too young.

Just wondering if I'm missing anything to repair guns. If you work on them, what do you keep? From let to right: - Super glue - thread lock - silicon gun oil for pistols - green paint marker - rocol aqua-sil (use piston o-rings) - bear lock - black electrical tape - PTFE tape - solder - Lonex grease - gleitmo 585k grease (use on gears) - spare 3mm gearbox screws - dean connectors - red/black heat shrink - different sized cable ties - spare o-rings - radiator cowling edge protector (was thinking of shortening mesh mask and putting around the edge) - old parts Am I missing anything? I think I've got everything I need to sort out a faulty gun. What does everybody else keep?

True, would be interesting to know if thats ever happened yet.

It's not metal.

I got it used so it was the same price as a new CM16, It was mint condition. I only wanted the external shell, I had it in my head i wanted to build my own gun. Haha, I've had it 6 weeks now and it's yet to make it to a skirmish! Maybe next week..

The novelty wears off of having a metal gun, especially during warm days and you're moving alot. Try the G&G Top Tech m4s? Or like it's already been mentioned; upgrade the CM16 into a beast

Not all CQB sites are semi only. My local is full auto with no minimum engagement rule. The sites is all tunnels so sometimes you're literally 5m or so from the enemy. I've yet to get overkill from really someone, it seems to work. That Trojan sites was all indoor and that was full auto too.

For torch protection refer to the opening post in this thread I ended up taking the protective cap off as It looks alot better without it. I'll regret it one day when I have no torch..

And you'd need to install a windscreen wiper to see after 5 mins.

You'll enjoy it more with your own gun. Every site I've been to have crap rentals. As for sites I've only been to one up you're way; trojan in manchester and I didn't like it. It had only just opened at the time so they might of improved it now.

If there's no trace of where it comes from then whole ukara is useless. Pay cash at shops, if you do something illegal the shop denies all knowledge of you.

It might be able to take a hit but because it doesn't seal the eyes is it possible a BB could ricochet under the visor? It could bounce off the visor and into his eye. That's the main issue sites might have with him using it.

Problem might be if you got shot from behind is it possible the BB could ricochet off the inside of the visor and into your eye? Presuming you mean a visor by face plate? Maybe post a picture of it?

Took me awhile but I found a picture of the anti reverse latch; Link; http://www.airrattle.com/G-G-Top-Tech-Anti-Reversal-Latch-for-Metal-Gearbox-p/g-10-082.htm
