      I have that code as well. Quite good actually.

      Not sure why the email said personal as it's a very generic code! Ah well, my UKARA ran out a while back so cant buy anything interesting anyway

      I'd just like the option of buying something nice and wood stocked without it being ruined by bright green paint lol

      Just take the paint off a two tone, or repaint one.

      You're an airsofter and you can prove it, nothing says the defence is only valid if you're over 18, that's just for purchasing.

      The ACPO have said the VCRA is unenforcible so you literally cannot be arrested for manufacturing a RIF. At least not an airsoft one lol.

       

      Way I see it; you're only ever going to get in shit, if you act like a dickhead and if you act like a dickhead, you'll be getting in sh...

      shit for that, not for changing the colour of it.

  4. Anyone ever seen a G&G GK5C in black for sale in the UK? Can only find it in green which I'm less keen on..

      Get a GK5C and spray it black?

      Meh, would rather not if possible.

      for a min I thought I found one at gunfire.pl but they sold out

  5. Anyone have experience with the king arms SIG 556 shorty?

  6. Anyone here got black Revision BulletAnt goggles that they'd like to swap for tan?

  7. Anyone here use an element eotech lense protector? The one I received is completely useless as it distortes everything. Am I unlucky or are they all crap?

      Pull the film off the lense mate I got mine and realised not long after it has a protective film applied

    3. Adam3088

      Adam3088

      Unless it's about 1 micron thick, there's no film on it

  8. Anyone know of a retailer which will order in specific AEG components from manufacturers on demand (G&G to be precise)?

      evike do a front end assembly (Rail, barrel hop up etc) for $180 or $200 with the built in sight

    3. Russe11

      Russe11

      Also worth googling 'boneyard fn2000' you might be able to find a broken one being sold cheap.

      Unfortunately it's the non-hunter version which I'm after. Found the 3x zoom was a PITA at my regular site, whilst the rail it's got at the moment will work with a regular sight, it's plastic and a bit low. ris riser might work, but then it's more weight on the plastic rail.

  9. Anyone know where you can get a lanyard plug which would fit a G19? Canne find one anywhere.

  10. Anyone tried the Warrior Assault systems gloves?

      I've read some very mixed reviews of genuine oakleys, some guys in Afghanistan had real problems with them.

      Camelbak ones look good, but yeah, pricey.

      Pentagon have some reasonably prices gloves, no idea if they're any good though.

      knockoff mechanix?! why not just buy the real thing, they're cheap!

      Those Macwet gloves that Pro Airsoft sell look interesting. Had my Oakleys about a year now with no issues, but have heard of build quality issues on some.

      Well; you buy several at a time, not just one. ;)

      Most retailers nowadays have £5-9 postage regardless of what it is or how much it weighs.

       

      I've paid £6 postage for a single hop bucking before, so £7 for several kilos worth of ammo is a bargain, TBT.

    3. Hudson

      Unfortunately; if you have to use Bios, then things aren't on your side.

      You'll either get

       

      a) Cheap ammo with cheap postage = bad quality & will ruin your weapon

      B) Cheap ammo & lots of postage = You're screwed unless you order in quantity or live near the supplier

      c) Costly ammo & free/cheap postage = Hopefully good quality, but bad if you pray & spray.

    4. Hudson

      Hudson

      IMO, Ammo is in the same category as barrels: you *can* buy cheap, but don't complain when things don't work out well.

  11. Anyone used http://www.a1airsoft.co.uk before? They seem to be the only place in the UK with what I want in stock, but never heard of them before.

      Not that I could find, everything looks legit though and paid through paypal, so fairly safe.

      Airsoft_Mr B

      Well that's good then - haven't heard of them before as well but haven't seen any bad reviews or warnings about them either.

    4. Adam3088

      Adam3088

      Yeah I was surprised about the lack of info, they've got a lot of stock and the prices are competitive. Well designed website as well, much better then some of the more popular places.

  12. Dont suppose anyone knows of a good place to get 16guage silver-coated ptfe wire from?

  13. Finally get a box of dytac mids, turns out they dont fit in open pouches very well. Sonofab*tch.

    1. Josh95

      Josh95

      ram them in, then leave them in there for a week or soo. The pouches will loosen

  14. First days airsoft in a couple of months, M4 shooting at 150fps, F2000 not feeding properly, lost a KSC G19 mag (the only one that didnt leak). BIG SUCCESS!

      I had one of those days yesterday; brought 3 AEGs, with the M4 as last resort in case the other two were playing up...I ended up having to use the M4...

      I made a thread for this: "The What Have You Just Broken Thread" - share ur pain, share ur solutions

  15. Going to order a new set of camo this month, either tigerstripe, flecktarn, Polish K93 or plain black. Not sure what to get though, needs to match OD gear. (form over function)

      K93. I hate Tigerstripe and Flecktarn

      Black or Polish K93

       

    4. Adam3088

      Adam3088

      Leaning towards K93, do like the look of it and Helikon seem to make pretty good stuff.

  16. Held a Ares TAR-21 today..I know they're crap internally but ergonomically it's pretty much perfect for me. Is there only a sportline version or is there a proline as well? Struggling to find it if there is.

      Never been a fan of blow back anyway, something I tend to avoid in guns to be honest

    3. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      me too - either flies/falls to bits or on G&G's blowback boxes can cause cracking of shell much earlier than non-blow-back boxes

      pistols might be different but aeg's - nah its fine, it's my toy gun so I will jolt the thing in my hand as I shoot peew peew poww poww peew peew

      Unfortunately the guy who stamped the form at my site sent it off, so not sure exactly what he did with it. In retrospect I should have done it all myself, might get another form if it's not through by the weekend.

  18. Is lithium grease (with Teflon) OK as gear lubricant? As long as it's kept away from any o-rings that is.

      it sure is. I've used it many times works perfect. Tech-T Gun Sav is pretty good as well. works better on HPA setups but it should be ok

    3. Lozart

      Lozart

      It's what I use.

    4. Adam3088

      Grand, that saves me a few quid, cheers much!

      It's actually bicycle grease, but good enough I guess.

  19. Is there a cheap (knock off) version of the Knights suppressor? Would quite like one but it's a tad overpriced.. http://madbull.com/catalog/en/kac-qdc-airsoft-dummy-suppressor-634.html

    1. Lozart

      There's loads about. I think ZCI have started doing a copy too. Have a look through RSOV.com
