  1. Not coming to Cold War?  We need WARPAC badly

      I can't really do two weekends in a row.  I promised to support Cajun Chicken last year before the dates were out.  I will do Cold War at some point next year though.  Hopefully Denn will get a better date for CC after the low attendance this time around.   

       

      I expect that I'll do S.T.A.L.K.E.R.S. next and that'll be it for themed games this year.

  2. So Royal Mail, precisely why has my package been delivered in Stafford when the address clearly says Peterborough......

      That is crazy man, I had the same issue with Alibaba.com their wholesale arm.....It's a lottery, luckily with all the companies i've used on AE they've all been pretty good

      Its annoying as hell as its so obviously a scam and even a cursory glance at their 'evidence' would show it to be so.  The tracking number they provided claims I ordered on the 14 Aug, even that alone should ring alarm bells.  AE claim that I put Cambridgeshire as the city and because this package was delivered in Cambridge thats good enough for them.  Geography is obviously not taught in Shanghai

      The scam is that you order, if you they have it in stock - you usually get your goods.  If not, they take your money anyway, give you a tracking number of a parcel that has been delivered previously and basically rely on AE to back them up.

  3. Playing Gaelic football again after a year and I am fooked....really need to get my fitness up

      I had a good first month of work-at-home lockdown, cycling everywhere.  Recently though... urgh... first game back is going to be walking pace, I suspect.

  4. Dude, trying to put my Makarov back together - how the hell do you get that wee slither of hop arm to engage with the hop adjustment wheel properly?  Seems impossible

      you gotta have the hop turned all the way off before trying to re-insert the barrel/hop unit.

       

      it's a bit of a bastard, i already wrecked one hop wheel by being too ham-fisted with it.

       

      edit: you can at least get it started with the wheel wherever it wants, only the last mm or so of travel does it actually engage.

      All the way off is to the right isnt it?

      i cannot remember lol, you're gonna need to get a torch out and have a look.

       

      i *think* it's all the way to the right but don't quote me on that....

  5. Was on the range yesterday.  23mm @100m grouping prone with the old L85A2, quite pleased with that considering I can't shoot for toffee if standing or kneeling.

  6. FYI - forget the ICS Makarov - utter shit.  There is a plastic collar around the Co2 valve that just deforms.  Had one blow out of the gun completely and the second one is now mangled as well.  And I am not even tightening the Co2 bulb that tight.  Result is that its really inconsistent in the power it puts out.  When it does shoot its fantastic but you need to get the bulb in at precisely the right point which is a PITA.

      owch, thanks for the heads up.

       

      grabbed a kwc one off @Wo1f and it's turning out to be a right cracker, gonna keep her as my winter gun and stick with the WE in summer.

       

      must admit i do wish i could get an alloy nozzle for the we, noticed the other day she's starting to bulge due to being fed too much heavy ammo :(

  7. Dude, can you help with my Makarov hop issue?  Where precisely did you put your shim on the hop?

      if you run .3's on black gas and down-load the mag by half a dozen rounds it can work well enough, you do need to keep the mags in a pocket though.

      Going to grab some pocket hand warmers for my holster for this weekends Cold (very cold!) War game at Eversley Gunman

      not a bad idea actually, i run my makarov in a shoulder holster with shoulder mag pouches too so they keep nice and warm that way but mostly i have a lot of trouble with cold mags as i normally keep them in external pouches.

  8. Been searching for one where did you find it?
