Sitting Duck

Just curious - how many posts do you have on other forum ??? Reason I ask is that you can be a feckin genius but if somebody with say 10 posts comes along and says This is a better way/method/technique - they get crucified left right and centre Most of this will kind of make sense but way way too often nearly all forums will just assume how experienced you are just by your post count / date regged etc.... Always the way - many of us just judge a book by its cover/post count.... Problem is - say your regular forum is offline/server down you look around or land at another site say after searching for a specific issue - you regged and answer a few noobie questions then get ripped to $hit by somebody with their head so far up their own ar$e they can never see daylight again I do things my way - not always the ultimate way but so far my way of doing some things works best for me I do take onboard other people's methods and if I stumble I will consider trying other suggestions - thus I hope to improve upon my own wisdom in most things I do Sadly the world is full of narrow minded arrogant w a n k e r s who can't see that their way just might not be the one and only way - or only their answer/theory is valid - to which I say: The mind is like a flower - it works best when it is open But in my head I still think to myself they are w a n k e r s

I think it is good but very very different from "normal" woodland sites yup - will be going back I reckon but perhaps a little better prepared (well a torch does help when you get lost in dark)

Uhmmm yeah - don't think I would of put it like that..... maybe - "my dumb blonde girlfriend spilt some nail varnish remover....." perhaps What's a guy doing with nail varnish remover - anyone remember Airplane II William Shatner: "What's a man doing with a bobby pin ???"

Nah ain't got time to play to much, I may repair/downgrade but if I got any time I like to get out n shoot for real - well pretend soldiers firing bits of plastic balls I was right into it a year ago but online hacking pi$$ed me off so got back into modding and thought sod this lets get out n play outside - spent way too much time playing on tv jeeez the rows on my old megadrive/snes with my other half...... Showing my age, but been there done it got t-shirt, the baseball cap etc..... I know there are some fantastic games out there though, but much of it is so similar to what was done before only slightly better graphics etc.... Very very little new fresh ideas come along and graphics ain't everything if you look at tetris - world's biggest game ever - wish I invented something like that OK enough - really really showing my old fart age now but do enjoy them - only now I find the really really intense games give me headache/roomspin - lol

Went Sunday 27th, wasn't too busy and a mix of regulars & newcomers hiring guns - about 30 aprox in total..... First couple of things you notice, it is quite dark or low lit - even with lights on so if you haven't got some sort of torch/flashlight you are gonna be in $hit a bit when they start playing some really dark games with just a few red lights on. Plus it is much cooler underground probably coz of brick built even on warm days - not bad thing coz I sweat like a pig running around (another thing - you won't be sprinting too much for too long unless you like running into walls, just moving briskly at best) We went out in groups of 3 first to get a feel of this maze like place with a regular, he knew his stuff and showed how important it is to keep peeking EVERY corner, well he was leading but soon got taken out so we are on our own - $hit this stuff is for real The idea was you get hit - go back to safe/spawn and collect another different two people to get people mixing and learn the place a bit - good idea but think maybe groups should of increased to say 5 or 6, one time we not made it out long and got lit up from another party of 3 also going out - so you had quite a few groups out there plus some last men standing of a group Now I am not gonna go on too much about some game modes being good or not so good - you get that at all sites. Kudos - to all players, they all seemed to be a good fair playing bunch, massive respect to one or two - especially the zombie & terminator guy who wasn't too bad when I auto'd him instead of semi coz I was outside having a pi$$/smoke when game brief started - sorry m8 but he was ok about it. Sure these guys like a bit of pain coz most of time it is full auto down there The Tunnel Rats obviously really know their stuff and it shows, they play very effective and aggressive - no not a bad way but they are not scared to go for it when many like me would hesitate about advancing - nope they feckin go for it and are deffo not noobs It is why they performed very well in competitions - it is their play style, not relying on bangs or smokes - well smokes can't be used coz of ventilation down there btw, also no lasers they recently announced. Lunch was decent - hot dog - even double sausage, donut & coke - btw do not get left inside coz they turn generator off so whole place in darkness whilst outside eating lunch - one story was a bloke a while back was inside not realising game ended and then they had lunch - he was inside in TOTAL DARKNESS - it is fecking pure black. When they returned he was a bit shaken up after being stuck down there for nearly 1 hour. Now I don't know if that is true but hopefully they are a bit more careful to ensure all out I can understand that, got caught myself going back out to find nobody in the centre of action..... They have speaker system but they say they use lights to signal end of game - flickering of lights etc..... This is not always clear especially to newcomers, they have speakers and should imho properly announce "Game Ended - Return to Safe Zone" once or twice Also this is CQB - real cqb, so I knew my gun was under 330fps, but the chrono was out but in actual fact it wasn't used, plus they annouced they will let ya go a bit over 340 or so..... Not a bad thing allowing a tiny bit of tolerance but ffs if you got the chrono then feckin use it !!!!!!!! Sorry but this is second site now I have visited and no chrono of guns - which to me is bollox I think though they forgot and will put my hand up to returning to safe zone with mag in gun so I should have been shot with own gun - did this TWICE - so I am a c u n t I know, no excuse even though I kinda lost my way and was pumped up/excited/preoccupied (well in actual fact I did get shot with my own gun coz it is so feckin dark I though gun wasn't firing I shot my hand - ouch it is working) I think it wasn't really my kind of thing but was trying to stick it out a bit after lunch, we played a game similar to invasion but was a bit too feckin intense and not a bad thing, but when hit you fall back - but it was just such a stream of full auto fire coming down all the time as you raise hand and walk back you just get pummelled in the back ffs from the streams of fire I can take a hit but with t-shirt & light jacket on it starts to sting a bit, and it was happening loads of times to people - many of us were getting quite pi$$ed and could be a possible situation where it could get out of hand getting lit up in back when dead man walking.... At this point - think we were at a serious disadvantage, not sure if teams were split fairly but we started to think this ain't funny I tried but thought nope, gonna call it a day, it was ok up to this point, not much objective play but different and haven't done cqb since April, but lit up in back again n again is not what I call enjoyment so gathered up my stuff and call it a day. I met the owner outside and had a chat with him, seemed to know his stuff and his team are very good but admitted it isn't for everybody and it is also very different to most other cqb as in dark tunnels and the gamestyle or enviroment. But it does promote or yes I will admit it can improve you in ways Peeking especially, learning about shadows and just generally full on going for it. I ain't no pussy but perhaps not quite the mad pitbull I might have thought I was No hard feelings - well a few in my back but was starting to subside a bit, wished him well, thanked him and drove home.... I may go again in month or two, you gotta see how green the grass is on other side, but will deffo get a plate for my back next time It is VERY VERY DIFFERENT to normal Airsoft sites, even other cqb does not fully prepare you for tunnel skirmishes like Epsom I think you should try it though, it is different, a little frantic at times and on the day I went the guys seemed to be pretty decent too (which makes a big difference) Hopefully chrono was a glitch error - I made bad mag-in mistakes too, perhaps annouce game over on PA system, and a few tweaks or mix of games/styles - plus anyone going remember a few things: TORCH - it is feckin' dark, sometimes had to feel my back for a few pitch black yards in some areas PROTECTION - backplate in my case, I had full face as I like my teeth where they are Make sure you gun is setup real sweet coz unless you got tracer you ain't gonna see $hit where they are going down there so forget about tweaking hop-up - well it is so close it won't matter too much but you won't see much without tracer unit Glad I went, not sure if it is for me but think I will go again as it isn't too far and the guys were all ok in my book which helps I have tried to write an honest review - yup I f*cked up a couple of times too but owner I think could tell, but I got told sternly when I messed up - it is a bad foolish - no stupid mistake to make, I normally just pull mag straight out when I'm hit & clear chamber a few times on my walk back but somehow kept forgetting at least twice - kudos he clocked me so they are on the ball hence think chrono was a remote one off oversight too. Deffo give it go chaps - if you got the balls but bring torch/backplate

oh bollox with very curly hairs on well I went to Epsom Bunker as was more local (see review on this unique place if ya like) 3rd August - Dartford Sandpit anyone ??? well that is my intention atm - but £30 full day, not cheapest Sun 3rd Aug - update Well didn't bother going as this meeting up to me has kind of fell on its ar$e a lot quicker than I expected - so spent the day swearing at some gearbox

RIGHT FFS SUNDAY 27th - this fell on its ar$e before it begun ffs 2 options Epsom Bunker or Ground Zero Woodland ??? I am 99.999999999% I am going to one of these who the hell is doing what on Sunday 27th ???

Well blow me - just found out not just every gun may different..... But also every mag too will be different - kind of makes sense I suppose popped new cart in another mag and was above 400 still after one mag of bb's ??? so each mag/valve may have its own slightly different "biting" point where valve opens some slightly large/smaller bursts occur from mag to mag so to speak could be slightly higher pressure from each cart but doubt it - same make/batch do like these ASG carts they fit nicely and very little air escapes when fitting plus they fit nicely in mag, press mag release and the mag drops out sweet like movies other makes I used it needed a bit of help releasing empty mag Hmmmmm - still more investigation & testing needed perhaps will try the original 350 mag n see how that works....

Well yesterday I did a little "tweaking" or grind/file away a bit.... I can afford to do this as it was a cheap $hitty CO2, and if I balls it then I got spares & extra mag for the other same CO2 pistol Looks a little rough but she is firing now at 330 - 340fps I cut, and filed down a round groove in the hammer there is now a semi circle groove aprox 2.5mm deep 1mm deep seemed to do nothing 425+ 2mm deep started to drop a little - 385 2.5mm gets me to 340 ish - seen 355 once but most is 325 to 345 the pin/valve is not getting pushed so far in and so is not releasing so much burst Will take some pics to show what I mean - but it is a BODGE FFS Could of tried washers around valve but had trouble holding these in place got the hump and thought - wtf lets grind the 8itch and finish with a small circular/round file - like a half pipe guttering channel but is in line with pin I do NOT suggest anybody does this on a nice decent pistol This was a cheapo nasty £30 CO2 pistol (actually £27 delivered) If I killed it by taking too much off and left with 100fps - $hit happens at least I get a spare mag etc for other pistol I strongly do not say this is a good way to do it but now at least I should be able to use it as a backup/secondary once it starts to drop a tiny bit - there is a very small margin reckon it was about 0.5mm once she started to lose a tiny bit so with that in mind you have gotta go very very carefully As long as she stays about 300 - that will do me still got other one - so will be intertesting to see new mag & co2 cart in both - how many shots etc.... hoping to stay above 300-320fps and mag maybe 150 would be nice OK - bit of an update...... fitted brand new ASG co2 cart and started testing this morning..... got up to about 90 shots - mag holds 19 plus the odd dry fire when empty it was early (6:30am and neighbours seemed to be getting pi$$ed) so left it at 90 shots..... Recently dry fired the rest inside up to about 200 shot mark then chrono a few bb's @ 260 back inside & dry fired up to 250 shots & she was at 90fps 275/280 & she was out of gas So yeah looks like it might have sort of done what I needed it to: 320fps & mag good for 150 maybe 180 bb's - that is getting on for 8 or 9 mags think I will forget looking for a cyma electric pistol, see how this works out in a month or two might do the other one but will wait a little while first think next time I reckon using a small square file to get a nice recessed flat area striking the valve the round one might look neat or even a bit realistic but smooth square flat surface to me might provide a more accurate consistent strike on valve than maybe the round halfpipe shape pistol - alas out of stock now http://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/gg-105-co2-gg-105-co2.html?filter_name=HFC%20105 10% off voucher think was RC10 = £27 and free del on everything like I said £27 - jeez a mag & del would cost a fair bit of that so bought a few but they was hitting 400-450, now I might be able to use it Other places do sell these cheapo pistols but not as cheap & delivered but this bodge - and that is what it is ffs may just allow some cheapo guns to be used PLEASE do not do this to any half decent pistol - get it done PROPERLY !!!! if anyone wants to try this crap please remember: EVERY GUN WILL BE DIFFERENT !!!!! Another one - my other pistol may only need 1mm or 1.5mm shaved off if I just dive in and take too much off too quickly it may drop to 100fps I had got a rough idea with washers over valve stopping trigger hitting fully home so I knew not to go too mad with dremel & files Go very very slowly and gradually bit by bit - needless to say: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU SCREWING UP YOUR £125 CO2 PISTOL (I am not very responsible or mature at all for that matter) Only attempt this if you have a crappy cheapo gun, and a little common sense and decent stuff - not your mum's nail file ffs and can afford to lose the gun if YOU screw up going too mad it may not work for all or other pistols so it is down to owner/user to decide Not sure - DON'T DO IT, if not ready fine wait a while and will update if bodge still works ok soz for long waffle - but I ain't gonna buy anybody a new gun if it goes pear shape on ya ItsAJ - deffo spend £15 on the shop proper mod, my crappy gun is a non blowback 1911 yours is deffo worth £15 spent on it and can be reversed no doubt - my bodge not really S D

blind firing is wrong - we all know that Looks to me they both ran for the same bit of cover as often happens.... They both know - $hit he is behind this wall.... Now what should be happening is they both jump out - left/right and take their chances coz in reality nobody is/should be surrendering so it is do or die you hope you can make it out to see the blokes ar$e as you emerge - no not in the flesh ffs but the back or side of him or you both come face to face question is do you jump out and go far wide left/right or tight to object this crap happens all time in skirmish or COD - you both know what needs to happen You just hope that when you emerge you don't get taken by his m8 instead Once - me & another player came out face to face both fired on target I declared hit but opponent did not though I swear we started to fire whilst both "alive" so therefore this would have been: aiuchi = simultaneous hit as used in matial arts, though that means no score but in aisoft we both dead/hit Fair enough I think but was a tiny bit pi$$ed for a while but it happens every weekend no doubt but that at least we both went for it as we knew we had to - think we both hit but $hit happens rather die trying so to speak than wait for blind firing bang bollox crap to come over or just wait for him to pop round for a chat

nope these muppets will just keep going - they must spend a fortune on google Ad Words They are ALWAYS popping up in search engine - ffs plus the term - one born every minute, the customer JBBG cater for (was me 4 or 5 months ago - so I learnt my lesson the hard/scammed way)

Nah he is talking about the new one - tried it but lost interest the old classic Wolfy & follow up - Spear Of Destiny - played to death (really showing my age now & best console adaptation of that was snes) Think it doesn't look too bad, only played until you crash n have to kill robo-dogs But the previous one a few years back was dire and then the DOOM game a year ago well that was money down the drain and so many follow ups fail so bad and WatchDogs a week later so think quite a few soon forgot about Wolfenstein In the past really thought BodyCount was gonna seriously kick ar$e as it was done the bloke who did Black - now that is feckin' good game, could of kicked COD's ar$e if the dopey programmers did online or at very least 2 player co-op / lan play Alas BodyCount wasn't bad for a while but then wtf - aliens n crap - jeez no. Final thought on video games: You are always the last person from your squad/team/platoon etc..... ALL your m8's are dead, ripped to bits by aliens/zombies/enemy army.... So what do you do - yup you head straight towards them ffs Of course 49 dead comrades is nothing, you are gonna kick ar$e Yeah - in reality, would put too much money on you making it back alive But hey - it's a game n all that - enjoy it

Sounds good value, dunno about early games coz like my sleep instead 1 big screen - grab a few cheapy TV's set up COD on a lan then watch the adult pro's get owned by 12yr olds - lol shame it is bristol - a tad too far but wish you well with this one this is what we need to do if we ever do a forum meet up (beer n consoles is safer than beer n airsoft in evenings)

Try not to knock the UKARA - it is a techy subject and is not perfect and perhaps it "could or should" be a little bit more involved in its checking I really do think (yeah is easy for me to say now, but I seriously do think this) You have to look at it as a kind of "game" we have to play to play the game game we all like to play But if checks were too involved my therapist might have objections though (just kidding - soz shouldn't joke about this crap) A little bit of hassle in actually finally getting on database but no real biggy in the end yes I was getting out my pram a bit - but in the end wasn't the end of world A bloke at work is really going through the mill, one of his kids is terminal ffs so when you hear crap like that - wtf am I moaning about LWA & UKARA etc.... you will get there, maybe processed quicker - that was what took time for me

Hmmmm - bit of drive so early start for me in S London / Surrey but be good to see NAE site perhaps Bluestreak looks good too - but don't say what fps limit is - especially indoor cqb (some 350fps still but others drop to 328/100mps - hate some of us to get there an no go) http://www.bluestreak-airsoft.co.uk/events.php but ground zero looks good too a if anybody is going to NAE suppose it could make for a warm up skirmish very tempting but be a bloody long day - hmmmm will mull it over for 24 hrs and if there is enough interest I will commit - just don't wanna go down there to be an even bigger Billy-No-m8's than I am already

Woo hooo finally got UKARA and on database at last now the hard bit - growing up and being a responsible adult

I thought xcite High Wycombe had Sunday 20th & 27th as well as Thursday (presume night games) on their calendar no co2's certain pyro's - can we fart at this site or does that need to be chrono'd first think russel had the 26/27th weekend off so was kinda aiming for that weekend Swindon might be a bit far for me this month - next month some of you can go swindon and I go to bunker epsom then or sandpit dartford when you lot do swindon so trying to find some place slightly west of london for 26/27th would be ideal

That High Wycombe one I can do like I said if ya wanna ring site to check its 350fps no oshiboom or site pyro's only or something was only real rule I saw seems like it is nobody's regular site which might good/fair level playing field or we get owned by locals - probably or epsom bunker but many have slightly hot guns so perhaps not think if we are gonna do it the lets go for it on 27th and if ok look at end August again if all goes ok - we keep messing about ergh n uhmm ing then we got no chance chaps of organising a pi$$ up in brewery High Wycombe should work this time around - might become regular or might try others but gor for this one on Sunday 27th is my gut feeling - woodland 350fps should be Somebody wanna ring them n see - I might have room for 1 or 2 at push from Surrey/S London

Now that was the type of spirit we all need to take and nice cqb - damn I miss all that indoor stuff

LOL - f u c k me that is a bit too fair in my book thought they may have a punch up over bloke calling his ricochet hit no it was a ricochet no I'm dead, no it must be a ricochet m8.... Look don't start telling me........ but all are playing way fairier than some I have seen lately

Think most of us feel the same way in general so it is good to know We all try to play fair I like to think Some may play a bit too fair or good sportsmanship Others might be a bit the other side of true fairness It all depends on your take and very much in heat of moment I suppose Ricochet, bang rule etc... - good to know that in general we are all roughly on same page slightly different limits of fair play in some cases but to be expected - nobody is wrong here They play their way but we can't always expect eveyone to play EXACTLY to our own rules or our own limits of fair-play & sportsmanship happy (fair-play) shooting - ffs it is just a game - well to most of us, some do take it too serious (oi you come here - wallop, wack, biff, pow, kazaamm, ummphhh - anyone remember batman ?)

yup both of you two been there I presume, wasn't there myself but son was with Rihanna - FireHawk bloody loud 8itch - plus somebody reported him for not taking his hits funny enough so he felt a hit and as always looked around saw top Marshal putting his gun back in its holster asked wtf - your not taking hits which he swears he was but $hit happens I say: stopped ya 8itching about it or the other team etc..... you play fair or don't play at all but but - well I believe you was trying to play fair - but but - oh shut up you tart I say... yup them stinging nettles - think them marshals go back and purposely plant more on the paths hark at me - grown men scared of a few nettles - lol Why ain't you two in bed at gone 3:30am - hey fancy a night time skirmish ?? (nah gonna turn in soon)

nah gotta disagree with that - this airsoft not a friggin' game of squash, snooker or billiards/pool yeah maybe shooter might be great at working out maths n physics - but we came to shoot and by that I mean direct hit shooting.... otherwise we would start awarding half hits, poxy bang rule, and well you was a good sport so I will commit suicide for you ricochets are NOT direct hits and are not even LUCKY shots they are ricochets which in real life 90-99% would not happen - ok in real life if somebody is inside a 1 inch thick timber house think they would be brown bread if I sarting firing at those thin walls with a real M4 I mean there all sorts of exceptions - grenade nope I am not hit my buddies took full force of blast your gun gets shot & no secondary - uhm well not really dead just no weapon so I could spectate yup I will call that sniper kill on me once I got my measuring tape to confirm MED I could go on - and very often do but there has to be a balance mixed with some common sense too Like I say - I have called HIT on 2 possible ricochets - never will know if they were both or 1 direct hit but I usually call it on 2 ricochets - perhaps others might say 3 or 4 or completly no way Once you call you can't start walking and then think - no hang on a sec that might..... The shooter might not see that way - he may have shot me directly, but if I didn't feel a hit I don't call it well not on first possible tap - but second well OK I say...... Now either I am a pussy little wimp or I am a cheating non-hit taker - maybe both I don't know and tbh I don't care really I try to play fair - if any of my enemies think I don't take my hits: B O L L O X - I try to play fair, report me to a Marshal and just before you do sort your own dirty cheating non-hit taking bastid team out first coz there is much worse going on

I am a weirdo anyway - just I kept my top on coz I might be daft but not stupid when running through stinging nettles
