What weight bbs were being used when it chronos low? 280fps is about right for .28 running 330 on .2

Contact lenses really are the best option. Tesco do a trial for £15 with free eye test. If you want daily disposable lenses they can actually work out quite cheap in comparison to expensive spec compatible eye pro.

Empty it. Dump pouches are for the immediate firefight, once the fight is won or lost, move all the spent pouches back into your rig. I try to put mine upside down so I know they are spent. It's also a grear way to make sure you donot leave any behind.
-
The most accurate way is to put a longer barrel in the hop up, and mark it with penxil and measure it.
-
No because a little bit will extend past the start of the barrel into the hop unit. But it's not the end of the world. an inch here or there would not make a jot of difference. Personally I have a habit of dunking my muzzle in the dirt so keeping the barrel slightly recessed is a good think imo.

At £3 is it really worth the risk? Although I would recommend cutting and shaping it to fit your own face. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B008M9C3GK/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1454424866&sr=8-2π=SY200_QL40&keywords=airsoft+face+mask&dpPl=1&dpID=513ImYq8JHL&ref=plSrch

I can guarantee they are the usual crap from china with a bit of multiglam hot glued over the top. £40 ... lol.

There is already a pretty good mobile version that works great on both android and iphone. A few other forums I peruze are dumping Tapatalk, due to its inflexibility.

I'm seriously considering selling a gun and getting a full length TM M870 gas gun. I love(d) my £40 DE Tri shot until it broke, stock just shered and fell off, still shoots great. I enjoyed playing shoty, I didn't feel handicapped with trishot, well no more than the G5, but the cheep plastic and "stigma" we're some things I didn't like. Now the TM isnt hugely expensive it seems, but is it really worth getting over another cheeper DE or the metal cyma? I have read a lot about leaking resevrois and the general consensus is out about its ability to handle propane, but what other flaws do they have, what other issues may I face? What's the sound like? Does it sound like a fly farting or is there a decent crack like a spring shotgun? Is there any recoil? So all in all Honest review from those that have used and lived with them? Pound for pound, Worth it?

Not really. .30 bb bastards = £13.75 / 2000 = 0.7 pence per shot (price includes delivery) .30 Blasters = £14.99 / 3000 = 0.5 pence per shot (excluding delivery) Not that much in it, certainly not enough to call them expensive as hell. Maybe if your throwing 4000 a game down range the cost will soon add up, but if your throwing that many bbs a game, you need to learn to shoot better, no bb will fix that.
-
The standard mantra is to leave gas mags gassed all the time and they shouldn't leak. There is a train of thought that say all gas mags should be left empty (but lubed). the rationing being a seal under pressure will fail quicker than a seal under no load. I have had no leaks since leaving mine un-gassed, and yours being sat that length of time with no leaks leads me to think there is some truth in the concept.

It isn't JD have exclusivity, and wont allow anyone else to retail it. They know how much of a good thing they are onto. -
Ok so it turns out Nuprol being WE, being useless, clones the Surefire X300 and called it the X200. The SF X300 Ultra, and called it just the X300. So Phoenix do indeed make a holster I need after all. Great sucess! My last Glock clip didn't fit my TM, how do you mod it to work? the tolerances were just too tight for it to fit properly, even after reheating and moulding. Anyone ever had experience of modding a fobus paddle to molle?
-
I finally found some holsters I like and work well with my TM Glock, the WAS universal and a modified Chinese clone. Great, only took 18 months. Then I decided all opor8rz need a torch on their pistol, (research shows it makes the bbs shoot 33.3% further after all) So a spontaneous trip to Patrol Base and I come home with a spanking Nuprol NX200 lamp. Now my pistol won't fit in any of my favoured holsters. It will fit in my Fobus 21+torch holster, but its paddle and I want it on my belt, cus opor8rz. What are my options? I looked into kydex but cant find anyone offering an attachment for a nx200, only a nx300 which is slightly different shaped head. Any good custom kydex makers or is there an off the shelf alternative? My main option currently is an SR25 Ten speed pouch, which is less than ideal. Much love, Mr Monkey xx

The problem I found was that the cotton took up dye very nicely, but the polyester didn't as you can see, so the original stitching will still stand out with a strong contrast, OK it's only a hairline, but I did find it frustracting. You could double team it with poly dye first and cotton dye second, but by the time you have bought the ubacs and the dye you have almost bought new shadowglam. The black comes out more of a deep navy. I just used hand dye Dylon from the range couple of quid max.

I have been using propane dry recently, I keep finding that no matter how I lube it, the first dozen shots sprays my hop and barrel with stupid amounts of silicon, which is less than ideal! Just clean it before a game and re lube. Maybe a drop through the day as required. I have the airsoft innovations and the mad bull nipples, much of a muchness, can't fault either. Some people claim their TM can handle propane, many claim it can't, I have a alloy slide, but the tm nozzle has survived both propane and co2.

the trick is to stop getting shot!
-
That works well. This is DDPM dyed black, just the polyester doesn't dye too well.

Who protects their sniper rifle scopes?
Mr Monkey Nuts replied to Mos's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
This sandwhiched between the outer scope and one of these, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLIP-UP-LENS-COVER-CAP-Scope-Telescopic-Sight-Yellow-Clear-See-Through-Filter-/330629921962?var=&hash=item4cfb143caa:m:mSn8hS4gwulT8vajbY1B7kA Simple, 2 min job, and if it ever does break or need cleaning its slips off without dismantling the scope. plus scope covers are l33t as flip! -
Reload speed is all about skills, not equipment. To be brutally honest, if your skills are so le33t that you are looking to shave half a second reload time, then you wouldn't be asking this question. Your best options for what you think you want, although they are pricey are HSGI Taco or Blue Force Gear Ten Speed. Buy what you like, its your dosh, but be aware that polymer fast mags will make no real world difference to your reload speed. And to add, polymer fast mags are noisy, test it yourslef, get your mag and run it against some plastic or a table, its a plastic on plastic scrape, it will make a noise.

Magazine numbers - what do you use
Mr Monkey Nuts replied to benstorey1's topic in General Discussion
I have my go mags numbered so I know which are spent or not and so I can rotated them to get even wear. Can't see much point in doing so for Aeg mags though. -
Why not bungee cord? your changes will not be quicker with plastic mags, and they will be much noisier than velcro. Open top bungee mags are far superior and cheaper.http://www.uktactical.com/p-4460-warrior-triple-open-556mm-multicam.aspx
