Where?

Great, then it's a vfc. Check that link in my last post. One thing to be careful about is if the rear sight block is not steel (check that with magnet) then it's easy to break it by turning the barrel sideways accidentally when you wiggle it out.

If you coordinate well with him, it can work really well. You are way more noticeable on the move if there are two of you, but having two fire positions, and of course that automatic weapon to compensate the sniper's weakness is great. Don't ever be in the same spot with your spotter. On patrol the spotter goes first. He also should have the same ghillie as you. You really should have radio contact with him. When enemy is nearby, only one of you moves at a time. When I played with my spotter he got way more kills than me, but I got the tricky ones. And with no enemy nearby, we could take great pictures how well the other is hiding.

Yup, Marui VSR-10 is the best. You only need ghillie if you lay down and wait a lot. For that to work, you will need a mislim game. Most of the time a head and shoulders "ghillie" is perfectly enough. Since you said we shouldn't discuss pistols, then I won't say that an NBB like an MK23 is more suited as a sidearm. Proper airsoft sniping is a very different playstyle to normal playing. If it's similar, then you are not sniping, you are a DM. Practice with your gun a lot. Set it up so that on about 40 yards it shoots exactly where the crosshair is. Learn where you should aim on 30-50-60 yards. A very-very good AS sniper gun can do a grouping of 30-40cm on 70 yards. That means every shot is inside that circle. If someone says "mine is better", tell them to prove it. Measure 70 yards and place 10 shots on a target, and don't leave out stray BBs, or blame the wind, etc. Place ALL the shots inside that circle. Anyway. You won't even shoot that grouping in a game, because the target moves, there is some wind, there is some foilage in between, you are tired, etc. You usually shoot at about 40-50 yards. Well within the range of AEGs. So sniping is mostly about surprise. Get them from an angle they don't expect. Place 3-4 shots, and leave even if you don't have a hit. Once someone with an AEG knows where you are, he will get you. Well, you can use this to lure them. Get some shots, and when they go after you, you are already in a spot you found earlier looking down your previous position. It's not easy to do this but it's an awesome feeling if you pull it off. Don't be afraid of laying down, moving very-very slow or staying in one place for half an hour or more - and leave without a shot. Use the heaviest BBs your gun can handle, and use the best ones you can find. The other playstyle you can do is being a DM. A DM moves with the team, and engages the enemy about the same way as the others. Your gun shoots less, but more accurate so eventually at the same success rate. For this style - because of the minimal engagement distance - you will need a sidearm with good firepower. For a sniper an accurate and silent handgun is the best. For a DM, something that shoots a lot. GBB with spare mags, AEPs with full auto capability, even SMGs. Once I played with my sniper gun on my back on a biathlon sling and my AEG in the hand, being able to switch them - which was a pain in the ass but it was fun to have the extra accuracy and scope when needed. You will see what works for you and for the sites you are playing. The most important is that even if you have a lot of experience with an AEG, be prepared to learn a lot before you can be a succesful sniper.

Extra mags. Nothing else is needed for a TM.

Is it the TM colne? The one with 2 screws in the magwell, 2 in front of that on the bottom if the gun? If it is, undo those. If it's vfc clone then Check this: http://www.airsplat.com/Items/ERM-BI-74U-RK01.htm

Maybe it's a good topic for this. Hazards of lasers: http://www.lasersafetyfacts.com/resources/Laser-hazard-distance-chart.pdf

Like this one? Apart from the fact that he is filming mostly a blank table. Once you get the frontset separate from the body, there are 2 screws holding the hopup. Just undo them and slide the barrel with the hopup out.

Just clean the barrel+hopup with the cleaning rod with some rubbing alcohol. And then throw the silicone away. No aeg or aep needs it. Actually GBBs have much better lubricants than silicone so just throw it away. The first few bad shots also can be caused by the cold weather. It needs a few shots to warm the houp rubber. This depends on the rubber.

Not bad. IMO get rid of the black gloves too, hands move the most.

As far as I know IR laser near the visible spectrum can do permanent damage to the eyes. The military ones are mostly eye safe I think.

Imagine how dangerous that would be. Will it recognise the stupid guy with the eyepro off? Create a bomb disposal or a recon drone if you must but giving it weapons would not be smart in my opinion.

I just take it like a man.

I will sound like a real dick but if your mother doesn't buy you a better one, try to get a job, and earn the money yourself. (I did say I will sound like a dick. ) I remember the sweet sweet feeling of buying the long wanted thing from my first earning.

I wish. I myself am pretty new around here so I'm sure there are a lot of games I don't I know about. The skirmishes here are mostly half an hour of shooting and half an hour of chatting in the safe zone. The objectives usually ensure one side will loose, then in the next round the sides change, and the faster one "wins". The milsim labelled events are a bit closer to what you describe. I was once at Eversley (http://milsimairsoft.co.uk) on a milsim event, and that was quite fine. Unfortunately there were only 8 of us alltogether.

Blue streak (= badger tac) is a good place. Not a milsim/tactical one but still better than the paintball-style airsofting that is common here. You have to look very hard to find a game in the UK where there is no lunch. These guys are ok, and funny too. Usually there are about 50-60 players.

I just printed one for a friend. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:618289 If you also have such a good friend with a 3d printer then it's easy.

Just stumbled across this on G+

You want a webshop then, like opencart. The payed hosts, have a lot of these things, like worpress, opencart, and hudreds more with simple install. You just choose what you want and it's there. Then you can create the pages with the static info and also the products you want to sell.

Some AKSU or an AK beta.

IMO get a domain+site and set up a web content framework on it, like Wordpress. Usually this is done with one click. From that point you only have to manage the content, not the code of the software.

Nope. And that's an other reason I probably won't print one for someone else. It's 3-5mm thick ABS so it should be very very tough. The only thing I'm concerned about when it comes to face protection is the teeth protection and that steel mesh has proven to be up for the task many times.

The model is something I just downloaded. It's a mempo, and those all have a grin.

3D printed, painted and steel mesh glued in.
