the saying: if it ain't broke - don't try to fix it comes to mind - see how she performs and tinker with it ONLY if you realy need to (and feel confident about it too)

http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/22926-willburnett/ took about a week to arrive - not exactly pronto, was gonna contact him but then it turned up as described, some on here like straffham ship stuff really bloomin' fast I myself have dragged my heels a bit a few times over the years see if anything turns up monday is all I can say

Yeah I think I got the exact same model too, maybe if I go back yonks ago I suppose I could call some other guns that fired stuff out the end - my first airsoft but on the whole it has all moved on so much now..... Suppose SRC M4 RIS or ICS M4A1 were my first "proper" airsoft guns that hit 300fps so speak The others were just cheap old things or toys that looked like they were trying to emulate being called a proper IF (funny that - they still Immitations but just better or proper looking ones - still toy guns but better toy guns in the end)

Battery - 8.4 or 9.6 nimh or 7.4v lipo are your 3 main options with 9.9v life or 11.1 lipo if you wanna cane her you got crane so need stick/nunchuk battery unless you change stock so depends if you already got a charger or wanna go down lipo route just yet your hop-up & tbb options - first off see how she fires out of box and run her in etc.... see what she chrono's at but really fire off a hundred shots in ya garden if possible to set her up n check groupings if you got a couple mags already then you are pretty much set, I reckon it is a £125 gun - a good one but just see how you go, they are all pretty decent out of box but plenty options to look into later if needed I'm not gonna go too mad but if you need I will measure battery space size/thickness in crane stock if really need to

Bulldogs are not sealed - blasters yup but many others are not sealed Some places sell bags that are not crimped or welded/heat sealed and I have wondered - yeah are they the genuine articles in there or any old crap you can find to refill empty tubs/bottles plus there is always the thought of them sourcing stuff from other places if usual supplier runs low, happens in many things that the original supplier can change from time to time but I guess I am a little paranoid sometimes - well most of time think perhaps for peace of mind I like to buy in sealed bags of 4 or 5k and kinda think they are what they say they are

you get this I'm afraid.... and everybody has different experiences as we all got different guns n stuff + different batches plus if you are really paranoid - is it better to buy them sealed in bags rather than in bottles as you could think those bastids refilled jar/tub with Lidl / Kwik-Save cheapo fire damaged stock bb's it seems to be firing much better so that is what matters in the end I guess (cheaper to replace some duff bb's that overhaul your gun/barrel etc....)

just get them to come along with ya.... saves you trying to explain it: Airsoft uhm well I suppose it is like pretend soldiers... "Oh you mean like re-inactments ???" ergh not quite but some do that, this is more like uhm ergh COD you might say "Oh you get perks and bonus stuff ???" No - it is one shot or hit and you are dead and you call yourself out "Out like in cricket or tennis ???" Oh ffs - you should come one day it would be really good "yeah do you think so - Im not so sure" No really, coz then I can get to shoot you myself for being so fvcking thick !!!!

obviously shoptonet don't give a fvck http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PS4-Destiny-Hard-Bundle-/380979972572 under £320 inc delivery for ps4 or xbone BUT like I said in my experience ASDA are brilliant customer service if things go pear shape even as I bought from Asda online with paypal they took back my BLOD PS4 and refunded me back to my paypal account without any fuss what so ever so Mr B - I think you made a wise choice going with Asda as I speak from experience I'm sure you will have much better luck than me - hopefully both nex-gen are ironing out some bugs by now I love/hate both companies btw - and we need them both to succeed - if not then one will totally dominate and that would be bad for us the consumers in the end. But what do I know, as I have only been playing games for oooh uhm 40 years or so - way way before Atari came along with 2600 and Activision was just some tiny pi$$ pot 3rd party trying to make Freeway for it

Thinking of getting one/two of those lipo's but have read you need to be a bit more careful as they are a tighter fit - but well worth the reviews say But for time being, managed to knock up an old connector plug - mini tamiya so I can use my usual smart-charger on the cyma charger block thingy (techy term btw) so hopefully I won't run such a risk of cooking the standard battery - well hopefully

you are kind of diagnosing your own problem like has been said seems it is mainly down to a dodgy batch - like my fireball .25's they feed $hit the mag could be a little more fussy as the bb's are loaded/forced into it than poured in hi-cap and finally some guns - lets be fair no two things are the exact same, could be a little bit more picky than others - a slightly tighter bore is gonna be more prone to jamming with $hit bb's than a much looser bore so to speak.... 90% of ya problems do seem to point to crap bb's I reckon so alas get some others maybe you might find a gun like a CO2 pistol that might be ok with them or see if you can return them but like those cheapo free bb's you sometimes get with low-end guns your current batch of bb's sound like they are $HIT

copy paste any airsofter on ya fone there ya go coppa - that's me there in the pic yeah but he has got a mask on.... Well yeah course I have - it is feckin dangerous ya know not to wear eye protection

I have 8,000 poxy bastid Fireball 0.25's the exact same.... 1 out of 3 shots you get a "Jimmy" or raspberry bb dribble out or fall 20ft short Go back to another brand - lovely consistent again. Ain't just one gun but all I have tried them in - so got a batch of duff lemon reject bb's not jammed - yet but maybe only use these in say a co2 pistol or perhaps sniper if barrel not too tight weird though you getting less.25's in mag than .20's but thinking about it if they are not true and quite irregular then I suppose unless you are Black Death & built like brick $hit house - you ain't pushing many more down there if they start to snag a lot more than the more true 0.20's - yup I'm going with that theory

Not being funny but if you spent say £150 if on a FA bare bones budget or If you went complete nutz on a 1,000 budget you still will be wondering.... To be absolutely honest get the hell out there and start skirmishing a few times you could buy all this and with a few skirmishes think you may wanna sniper you could even decide it ain't for you - either hate it, not like being hit, sprain you ankle - loads of things but decide maybe it isn't what you thought it was And human nature being what it is you will never be happy & content with what you got - the grass is green or his gun looks better than yours......................... The crap me and I'm sure many many many others went out with when we started but that didn't mean we had a real brilliant time either...... Even me with B500A1 getting owned most of time but still stopped some other guy gallop with his £350+ gun using a £50 one - how pi$$ed does he feel (not much really coz $hit happens like this all the time) get out there n get shooting - hire gun £150 gun £350 gun - whatever yes if you are gonna buy something try n buy something decent etc..... but maybe try not to run before you have learned to walk so to speak

it is possible I guess, there are health warnings with all flashing lights and them laser sights also need checking with site before use but if ya buddy has his Iphone with him you could also start you own airsoft rave maybe

Agreed - GG or CO2 has certainly got more oomphhhh over AEP..... But they all got problems like leaky valves, not working in real cold too well As he is from Scotland - well lets face it anything over 10c is a friggin heatwave and locals have to put on sunblock so maybe AEP is perhaps not such a bad idea any backup weapon will do as long as it works when you really need it Soz to Scots, no real harm meant but does like you often get $hit end of stick sometimes with the weather up there

Even better - mount a DOZEN on a lump of 4 x 2 inch wood - switch on then watch those 2 or 3 campers $hit themselves thinking...... FVCK - The whole lot of 'em are here retreat retreat FFS !!!! They won't know it's just you with a pole full of lights coz they won't be able to see and whilst you and your torch army get them startled - you team flank & own them Capture the Flag - piece of pi$$ seriously though - any good value ones out there? cot I bought some and they don't work with switch remote so now gotta source some CREE 502B torches or something

there is a law going through that may demad all airsoft guns in state of California or Los Angles to be COMPLETELY feckin ORANGE by January to avoid any fatal shootings of airsofters ffs orange tip may no longer be enough: http://www.ammoland.com/2014/04/a-modern-primer-to-california-law-regarding-airsoft-guns/#axzz3BvNpRPx3 uuuhhhmmmm isn't real problem too many real firearms available too easily coz of some constitutionial right bollox - dunno how close but heard it had passed quite a few stages and nearing its final hearing/signing to become law jeeeeez sucks to live in CA/LA in new year

their is a review on the Cyma Glock on here which makes good reading or ASG - same gun from £55 if UKARA'd in black http://www.patrolbase.co.uk/airsoft-pistols/asg-glock-18c-electric-airsoft-pistol.htm#.U_cLsKNOgzw most AEP's will hit about 200fps but at least they are right Green Gas don't like cold weather Co2 is a bit better in cold than GG but usually to powerful - over 350fps so yeah perhaps AEP & maybe Glock is not an unwise choice read up on that review - do a searchy for it and then make up your mind or some people use a short shotgun for backup - but may not fit in holster of course tri-shot ones seem popular - firing 3 bb's at once

Avoid CYMA 123 - fvcking monster of a 1911, they take standard Glock CM030 mags where as the 125 "might" have its own unique mag the 121 deffo seems to take different mags but Glock 122 & 123 use the usual cm030 mags if not a glock then maybe 122 looks like a proper 1911 type and proper safety - the 123 has a safety built into grip at back if you are gripping it - then it will fire so to speak - me no likey deffo wrong purchase on that one - again Glock is most people's favourite, just works and not a fecking deagle wannabe like my cm123 monster

Not really funny but guy is tracking enemy, just as opens fire on auto, into his line of fire comes the head marshal who proceeds to rip the bollox of the poor guy - he was not happy to say the least....... Secretly though inside I was pi$$ing myself but didn't want marshal to notice But then when your mag is empty, you are fully pumped up as enemies are closing in on you, you duck behind cover, slam in another full mag into your M4 jump out coz you are gonna take as many of the bastids with you as possible do: CHECK YOU HAVE THE M4 MAG INSERTED THE RIGHT WAY UP !!!! yup I did wonder wtf I was dry firing with a feckin fresh mag in there - upside down ffs yeah I was calling $HIT $HIT $HIT that time - wot a complete bell-end

wasn't that the Thatcher - the milk snatcher edition ??? soz - feel free to tidy thread as this has gone way way off course let alone off topic and politics and gaming - nah gamers don't care much about politics & boring stuff like that too busy playing and watching pron

What's that then - just like original version - but with less wards & staff due to cutbacks ???

I think to be fair it is part of a secret initiation thing or something..... You can't say you have say you have experience in buying airsoft stuff until you have been shafted by JBBG..... It is a thing called Wisdom - learning by your mistakes/fvck ups hence the term "wise after the event" Wisdom can ONLY be aquired from fvcking up - or watching others fvcking up so don't feel too bad about it - we all have had to learn some Airsoft Wisdom (yeah that is what I'm now calling being scammed by chubby the liar at JBBG)

I've notice they seem to be in blue or green boxes rather than plain cardboard box also on their list, it says gearbox's having bearings n stuff in lower end guns too (unless you get old stock but can't see that happening on sell-out Raider's) For this reason and just getting a few more G&G's - FH Raider CM18 etc..... I think they are the dogz nutz and deffo don't feel cheap & nasty at all SRC could learn from this rather than use plastic gearbox shell with no bushings let alone bearings in there - few shots and the ar$e falls out of alignment ffs if you get a SRC Dragon or BullDog M4A1 - DON'T !!!!!! yet another bad choice from JBBG as for paint removal - most people at site won't give a stuff - is how you conduct yourself when you got have a gun in your hand - how serious you take the safety aspect etc..... not just your little ar$e safety - but more so the safety of all players/marshals at the site I'm sure there are few UKARA bell ends out there so just coz they have defense doesn't ALWAYS mean they conduct themselves properly I guess the same in all areas of life Please don't all light me up ffs - I do try to be serious when required/matters but if you got any airsoft gun in your hand - always use common fvckin sense & safety
