The night visions people have are gen 1-2 and usually with zoom. Those are good if you sit in one place hiding and scan for movements. Usually that is not the case in airsoft games. Gen 1 and 1+ is basically good only if you have infra torch. If you use it, the red glow is visible and the torch's light is so bright on close objects, bushes, trees, grass that you don't see very far. If it is a zoomed scope version, then try using a normal scope in dusk to navigate around to see how much you see. Looking into it destroys your eye's night vision so you see less when moving around without it than people without NV gear. People without NV gear use flashlights, torches. One flash of it in your direction renders you blind, and when you turn it off, you don't see anything for a minute at least. If it is on your gun, you can't aim if it's turned off.

I had both and I still have the vsr. The L96 was too big and heavy for me and I'm not a small person. But I prefer maneuverability.

Of course you can. In my old team we had a training day each month. There is a lot you can practice. I even wrote an article about it - too bad it's not in English. :/

Nice. I'm in the process of modding a plastic AK12 stock with a 3d printed hinge.

There is no real point to have a team at skirmishes. On large, long events though if you have a team who trained together, knows some basic formations and movements, then it's great fun.

G&P motors have a thread in the connector where you can screw the wire on.

Not really. But until people try it themselves, they think it's like in call of duty.

UI is what the user sees, what the user experiences, how he or she perceives the functionality. If it is below standard then they won't care about the functionality. Also, I am a straightforward man. If everybody tells you the site is awesome because you did it in your free time and they respect that and don't want to be mean, you will believe it really is awesome and won't see why users turn away. Once again: I do respect the work you've done and the intentions you have to make the milsim-ing better in the UK. We need more people like you. I'm just saying in my direct way that there is the issue with the UI that you should address. If I were invited I probably would be able to suggest a few tips or even do a few things. It is not unprecedented for me. In my old country I still run the go to page for airsoft newbies that's been running since 2009 (and I pay for the server from my own pocket) even though I don't even live there any more. I am a good guy, I'm just not polite enough.

Nooo. I do that for a living.

A&K M24 is the bestest base gnu. It already has steel trigger unit and metal piston. It just needs some work around the hopup and it's done. I agree with the guys above. It costs not only a lot of money but a lot of time to make a good boltie.

*gasps* The 90's are back! Don't get me wrong I do welcome the functionality and appreciate the work you put into the page. But it needs an UI from this century.

No, M4 hopup is not compatible with AUG. I believe I saw an AUG hopup unit that came out not long ago, but I really don't remember what make was it. CA M249 hopup unit is compatible - and also hard to find. Oh, ok. First hit on google search: http://airlab.parts/products/lonex-hop-up-unit-ca-m14-marui-aug?variant=739259135

Yes. Clean it properly, and switch the piston head OR the cylinder head to a POM one. Ready. And throw away your silicone spray. Of course if you find the hopup bucking torn, then replace that as Duck said.

Acetone dissolves ABS which is the plastic of the airsoft guns.

Installing a microswitch won't solve that. You need to pull the trigger fully, all the time.

Problem with airsoft: In the UK skirmishes are like paintball games. That's because games are run by the fields and most of those evolved from paintball fields. If you have only played in the UK you don't know how fun airsoft can be where teamwork is the first, where you depend on your fire team where there are proper objectives to achieve and the actions of a team is coordinated by a commander. The games in the UK should evolve but because here the field owners organize games it will always be playing paintball with airsoft guns. If there would be dedicated game organizers who are independent of a field, games could evolve. And this - as most of the things in the UK - comes down to insurance companies. They don't let you play airsoft anywhere legally even if the owner of an area would allow it. This way we have to use the established, boring and paintball like fields and we are stuck, because they won't risk profit. (Offtopic rant on insurance companies: here they are so powerful you have to get insurance for everything. And they make you pay a fortune. In my old country my car insurance costed me about £10 a month, and when there was an accident, they covered it no probs. Here I pay 15x more and when someone bumped into my car and even stated it was her fault, I didn't get paid for the repairs.) (But apart from the insurance companies, airsoft and customer service, the UK is great. )

Yes

I don't know why the hatred in the UK towards the SRC. Maybe the old ones were crap? Don't know. The current SRC M4s are exceptionally good. Those have GB internals better than most people put in their guns when upgrading. The only thing I don't like in there that they have metal piston head and metal cylinder head and that combo kills any V2 box. The externals are also great. CNC'd ris, aluminium body, etc.

The stock motor is very weak. I might have plastic bushings. Maybe the new ones still have plastic bushings. I don't remember. If you want longer barrel, don't get an mp5k. Trade it with an m4 or something. The only reason to get an mp5k is the size. With it's short barrel it is still very usable on 50m. Replace the hopup rubber with some good quality one.

The final step is the crucial one I think. After you use whatever you find to "crown" it. Dremel, crown tool, etc. Then you look down the barrel into a light and you will see a dark line at the end of the barrel. I removed that with an x-acto knife.

Yes. The rubber around the mesh is hard to find, but I saw someone made a nearly identical thing from a chinese mesh mask. Supposedly you can use a hairdryer to soften the glue and remove the thing around the edges then cut the mask to size with tin snips. I use an elastic strap around my neck, not the top of the head as with normal masks.

If that's the question then yes. Heavier BBs retain their speed better. On the first 20 meters they start slower but all weights are so fast there, the difference is milliseconds. After that, heavy BBs retain the speed better. This graph is for BBs fired from an 1.14 Joules (350fps with 0.20) gun.

It can be done with minimal tools. I'm using a cut down Marui barrel in my main gun for about 4 or 5 years. The same barrel even though I changed the gun around it 2 times.
