  1. Its not the worst we have ever seen by LOOOOONNNNGGG stretch. Speaking of which, any chance we can vote on a Top 3 of Macks from down the years? Be it sheer balls of an asking price or drama after?
  2. Such a shame it doesnt seem to be very good on first look. We Russian enthusiasts badly need a well made decent handgun. TM preferably....
  3. Its called screen printing if you want to look it up.
  4. This was done right at the beginning of the Afghan experience. Lads in Helmand were issued standard Desert DPM only to find that they stuck out like a sore thumb in the green zones that make up the central valleys in Helmand, so they dyed their Desert DPM green. It was the reasoning behind the procurement of MTP.
  5. Dude, there is literally a thread over 20 pages long detailing everyones woes with UPS. Don't create another
  6. TB H I thought it was pretty clear already, but colour me surprised at a Tory Govt changing things again...:/ So when is the new date then?
  7. Its nothing to do with Corona or Brexit. It's everything to do with batch manufacturing and being at the end of a very long supply line for what is relative to SE Asia a very small market. Add into this the nonsense that Nuprol and others get upto and you have our situation. It will always be cheaper to produce another M4 than something more exotic and hence that's what you get.
  8. Wingun do a M44 Mosin in Co2 - its actually quite good but has a fixed hop up - Google for retailers. Costs around £250
  9. Quick straw poll as something occurred to me.... Of those who have had their parcels delivered - how many were Taiwangun deliveries and how many were Gunfire or other retailer? Mine was from Gunfire. Just thinking there may be a correlation thats all probably not but worth looking at
  10. Its a fairly old pistol and design by this stage of the game, the seals in the magazine have probably deteriorated through non lubrication down the years (gas contains silicone lubricant). Hence, unless you are prepared to fix the mag leak by taking it apart it probably is dead now. A thought may be seeing if other manufacturers M92 mags will work? And as Heroshark says its probably a collectors piece now. Maybe contact Negative Airsoft as he has a hard on for all things WA and might be able to assist you? Good luck
  11. As an ex-Copper and current Military Policeman, I loathe all Police shows as I spend most of my time yelling at the screen 'IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT" or 'YOU WOULDNT DO THAT!"....
  12. @alphabear Grammar Nazi here....its INVASIVE not evasive....thank you
  13. I have zero clue what GHK AKs you lot are using or what you have done to them but mine has been superb from the moment I got it. Yes, the auto sear needs replaced cos it will break, but beyond that mine is hitting 60m no problems, it out ranges my stock MWS. You don't need to mod maglips, that just causes jams. Jams are usually the result of bad quality BBs or the guide tabs on the nozzle being damaged, shave them off and all is fine again. In fact, mine hasn't had guide tabs for the majority of time I have ran it and its still chugging along. The Maple Leaf chamber is really good but needs careful installation. There are a few niggles with them but generally they come through people not knowing what they are doing. The mags are excellent and in 3+ years of owning mine I have not had a single leak. Parts issue? Rubbish - readily available from Samoon or Milspec and magazine rebuild kits from Lees Precision. The only part that really needs replaced is the auto sear for a steel one. They are much much much better than WE AKs. Sorry, as much as I like Negative Airsoft he is just plain wrong on this occasion. If you want a someone to talk you through GHK AKs PM me as I am very good with them
  14. Its hardly THAT much smaller and at least you wont spend most of your time trying to get it to work
  15. TM over all of them. How anyone can seriously recommend the WE over it is baffling.
  16. Usually their bullshit Firearms Form. They are the customs/clearance agency.
  17. I use Guarder .36s in my MWS and GHK AK they seem decent too
  18. Likewise, I accept a certain degree of Brexit disruption, this however is 90% UPS induced shit. Their internal processes and data transfer between depts is shocking.
  19. As has been summised by others in this tale of woe, 'Held by Customs' is a lot of horseshit as UPS act as the Customs agents, they are the ones holding it! It should read 'Not got round to calculating how much we are going to charge you yet'. Similarly, 'In Transit' means 'Been bouncing around our warehouses waiting to be scanned yet again'. Oh and I have it on good authority that UPS have zero access to the UKARA database, so it renders their Firearms Declaration form even more useless. For those who have the 'Waiting for docs' crap, I would suggest proactively emailing their Firearms form to their clearance department and including the Tracking Number. Can't hurt at this stage.
  20. I only run G&Gs in my GBBR they are excellent, I actually prefer them to Geoffs which have caused some jams in my stock MWS before.
  21. Ok, so in yet a final display of incompetence, UPS have actually managed to fulfill their primary function as couriers by delivering my rifle, intact and working, a full day earlier than what is stated on their tracker and in contravention of my wish to have it redelivered on Friday. This incompetence is fortunate but yet again underlines how utterly useless their system of passing data between various apps and business functions actually is. On a side note - please see picture below - yet I still had to fill in their bullshit firearms form.....never again.....
  22. Mine is on its way to Northampton. I have requested redelivery for Friday as I am not in tomorrow when it scheduled and instead of it being amended immediately its still pending. They can't even get that right. Utter wankers
  23. Import fees of £43.99 on a £160 package. £11.50 for their 'brokerage' bullshit
  24. Mine has finally apparently cleared customs so I should get it some time in the next month Sadly I dont think UPS realise they are shit. They probably think they are doing a great job.
