pretty sure they work in WE's: not quite 101% if they all work perfectly in TM's but they "should" be "com-pear-able" (compatible) The guy lives in North London btw - he arrived at Heathrow, jumped in a black cab and said: "'arrow taxi driver" = Harrow but meant to just say hello to the driver I'll get me coat

Well the Oshiboom was on Black Friday offer for £50 and you can feel the build is of a strong machined lump it has to be quite robust if she is gonna last Dynatex do impact one also for about £55 at Z1 & AW but not tried that one did pull the pin on a timed bfg and held it near about 4 inches from cardboard box - blew a scorched hole in that so even with a 6mm shotgun primer there is quite a force from a tiny tiny blank £50-£60 sounds a bit - but then if using shotgun primers £7 per 100 under £70 for ya first 100 room clearings ain't that bad £7 for next 100 clearings - unless ya lose it

Is this gun any good - CM.507 from Taiwan Gun
Sitting Duck replied to RingWorm's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
did a review of the cm515 and it is not bad but clearly said about G&G being a wiser choice for M4 http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/27302-cyma-cm515-cheapo-plastic-keymod-aeg-l70-aprox/ AK - cyma but tbh not the 521 or Spartac's at Gunfire the cyma 028 or 037 have metal top cover instead of plastic (which will break over time) so the 028 or 037 at about a tenner more is worth it imho G36c - JG - nuff said, one of the most popular hire guns at sites so that must say a lot Just over 100 Euro - say £75 and those guns are brilliant value for money BUT think G&G's Raider is hard to beat - yes I know everybody has them Receiver is better, motor hmmm but the cyma 515 long motor wasn't great either Also G&G prices in UK are about the best plus a Raider at £123 ain't bad with free 2-tone plus today only Zero One have 10% of G&G's with XMAS12 code if ya missed out on Black Friday 15% deals the cyma M4 is not bad though - certain miles and miles better than any JBBG crap and at like £65-£70 I have bought worse, but G&G even a Raider you can see & feel the difference and as a first gun if you can run to a G&G from a UK retailer - go for it if budget is tight then ok cyma but it is very plastic - the brittle plastic type - stock tube, mag catch etc... still better than JBBG but think G&G is worth the extra -
Ahhhh - see now there's ya problem (yes dear I'm doing the hoovering right now) ((Mrs Duck is out atm so I'm the man of the house - for now))

Alas some of them online kids are in fact adults Late Friday / Saturday nights after pubs closed was worse The amount of really really abusive ar$eholes calling everybody paki peado call you next Tuesday's etc... Think people should have to take a maturity test or something before being allowed to go online (Not sure if I'd pass first time though)

Little $hit big man, may one day grow up if he makes it through puberty alive funny as f*ck it the car was full of young drivers who wanted to smash the $hit out of him I think I saw a fortnight ago some warning posts on a couple of FB groups but paid little attention tbh "Just a kid" excuse only goes so far especially if you continue to disregard law/safety/respect of others often wonder what his parents must think but probably unaware I'd like to think I would like to think the kid has serious issues..... Or he f*ckin' will have if he continues to pi$$ into the wind !!!
-
Alas most I've seen were 16+ If Duck jnr can be arsed though he can then try it at long last as his 16th is just before chrimbo Alas he has kinda lost interest atm - bloody kids

I have been sent shotgun primers via UPS Collection point Can't remember how some 9mm blanks got sent to me from another place ages ago These blanks/primers are a weird mofo in how you can/can't buy them etc..... some places will sell 'em and ship no problem as long as ya 18 one or two won't ship them - collection only a proper firearms place does them in bulk at crazy prices - shotgun primers but demand firearms license only Then again Zero One made me fill out a pyro / blank firing form - even though they had my ukara details fill in, scan & email it all back to them - just buy a BFG - no blanks just the BFG FFS So yes it is very unclear to say the least on blanks and think nigh on all couriers would say no way if you disclosed it My best proper advice - only send the blanks if you have the proper box for them - not loose ffs so that all of them are kept apart from each other wrapped up very very well maybe send the bfg & blanks seperately but will push up postage - but at least if blanks get stopped the bfg won't (hopefully) it is always a risk of hassle even sending a gbb glock or a friggin lipo battery - especially with the increased security atm think mainly as long as buyer is 18+, that is main issue if I was selling

well I suppose after 20,000 rounds it might wear off at a push - take out the barrel and hop, dip the end into WARM SOAPY water as said maybe a cotton bud or Q-tip to clean might get the worst of it off but the oil may have got into the bucking lips as well as the window that presses down on bb so you may have to strip it in the end by all means dip the hop unit into soapy suds and should help to take the curse of it - nowt to lose might get it worn off eventually but reckon it will take more than a bag of bb's plus you said it wasn't just a tiny bit of oil so you need to remove that crap very well and get it clean squeaky and grippy once more how fortunate or lucky you might be depends on the oil - wd40 might not be ultra ultra difficult to clean if it was silicone oil though - yeah ya f*cked - best start stripping it down
-
Alas strip hop unit carefully, remove rubber bucking that is the problem wash in warm very soapy washing up liquid - lots of suds washing up liquid is a degreaser so will remove oily crap to a "squeaky clean" result that is what you want to grip and apply spin to bb youtube is your friend hopefully bucking removes ok & no damage, minor smear of silicone OUTSIDE to assist in replacing bucking/barrel into hop fingers crossed it should then perform as it should failing that if rubber bucking gets damaged - order another one (or two) always keep any oil/cleaning stuff away from hop unit - well you have discovered why this is so best of luck ps - don't worry many drunks mess with their toys and thinking it isn't loaded coz mag is out..... blows the crap out of their 50" flat screen TV - now that is mega dumbass a bb fired inside ya house goes EVERYWHERE - but often where it can do plenty of damage eg: TV or worse your own eye so your little mishap is nothing really - alcohol & airsoft don't mix well (well alcohol wipes are good but other than that any other form of alcohol is not wise) ps - by the sounds of it - chuck the hop unit in the soapy water too but watch out for the tiny tiny little nub on the arm to bucking you need that so don't lose it - very easily done at a push a wd40 red straw or bic biro ink tube can be cut as a makeshift nub pps - I'm sober & clueless

Noob from Falkirk! Good day one an all! Any advice?
Sitting Duck replied to RingWorm's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Unless you spend a min £1,000 on your gun you are not welcome here - peasant !!! Mega Kidding m8 - this forum is filled with a massive mixture of toy gun owners and all of them are a decent helpful lovely lovely lovely people Most of us have bought crap stuff when starting out from JBBG - or bought stuff we "thought" would be ideal only to find out we don't actually like what we first thought would be a great idea/gun/loadout etc...... Read up on Ian's guide, wish I had a decent gun will set you back about £150-ish Yes you can buy a STFU gun and be done with it but this toy gun hobby is much like anything in life you usually start out and build up to better stuff as you yourself get further into it To me this allows you to develop, hone and perfect your own skills, discovering YOUR actual strengths/weakness and the role/type of player or play style that suits you best and what sites you prefer to run around like a pretend pew pew toy soldier As you grow - so does your collection tee hee, no but as you yourself grow then you actually warrant/appreciate a higher end gun Don't get me wrong - if you can afford it and wish to spend £500+ on a higher end aeg then why not I think it is like passing your driving test - yeah most end getting a Ford Focus, Escort, Ka or others like Nova, Corsa or a 106/206 run-around But some may just think wtf and go out for an Audi, BMW or other mid/higher end car from day one if they can or parents can afford it I could buy a higher end gun/car/designer clothes or gadgets in my own home but never been one for latest high end expensive stuff I just don't see myself personally having all that stuff - though I have stopped buying most stuff now cheap or expensive Guys on here can help you with what ever your budget is Get a nice gun by all means - just remember though very often it is the player not the gun that wins the game or as my late father said: Fine clothes do not make a gentleman yup buy a £150 G&G to say a £300 Krytac if you can afford it - no more I feel until you really get hooked if anybody looks down their nose at ya then wait until you are out on field.... Yeah sure Mr Jumped Up Ar$ehole - I'll cover ya..... (will I f*ck as you dry fire at enemy watching as he gets shot to $hit) Seriously - thought crosses my mind but I'm not like that really (well most of the time) there is a bit of snobbery like most things in life but in general I'd say most players can think back to when they started out and often welcome new players into the sport very well btw welcome to the forum - ignore 99.999% of what I say as often it 101% pure bollox -
not unless you barrel is f*cked even if bb curves it is nigh on 99.9999% bucking related if you want to f*ck with stuff that may be perfectly ok then I STRONGLY suggest get super duper madbull bollox tight bore over priced that don't do $hit - well a modest zci one will do get new hop unit & bucking etc.... fit it all together - if it works like even worse $hit - then you can go back to ya stock G&G one with its decent green bucking you are itching to mess with stuff - if you really really have to f*ck with stuff then buy barrel/hop/bucking and leave stuff that might be ok well alone for now most of the range accuracy comes from hop/bucking but as I said - get another complete unit to f*ck about with rather than screw up something that you later find out wasn't as bad as you thought this is one of the many lessons I have learnt amongst many many others - most of which fall into same rule of thumb IF IT AIN'T BROKE - DO NOT TRY TO FIX/F*CK WITH IT
-
101% agree unless you want ya SRS also in for servicing leave it as is for now or at least wait until your m14 is back up to scratch..... then you can decide or perhaps deans & say shs torque motor but keep juice low on 7.4v lipo (push 11.1v and piston will strip/snap very quickly) beyond that you need to open her up which really really should not be needed unless its shooting $hit and below 300fps etc.... alcho wipes and a drop - I mean a drop of silicone on a soft tissue/rag clean only 80% of barrel - keep away from hop ffs dry cloth to polish and that is it seriously consider leaving it alone for the moment - it ain't 2 weeks old yet if Black Friday deal - just about 10 days since you took delivery unless you like ripping apart new guns and making them worse - that is my job btw
-
Short motor, shs torque is another option. Most likely hop rubber bucking might need checking. Piston, piston head replacement - well only if starting to wear. Better options, AoE with sorbo + new piston ring, PTFE tape on cylinder head, o-ring nozzle, plus grease. Reshim if you think of needs it or leave if OK. Going whole hog, rewire MOSFET deans All depends on where you start/stop Or another way to look at it: What breaks next ? Short motor in g36 & AK's
-
I wouldn't mind being a young player as opposed to an old unfit fart that discovered airsoft late in life Same as 2-Toner's - couldn't really give a crap if ya 13 or 30 If you play maturely and not a dick then anybody is welcome to play toy guns with moi Think I'm one of the most immature players tbh (Missus has always said I'm immature) Play fair, safe, maybe semi mature if we run around woods dressed up with toy guns pew pew pewwww
-
Think if you walk on water or very very experienced or lucky R-Hop does perform a "little" better than a "good" flat hop That said - hop/barrel is one mofo area I have so much to learn I've fitted a FireFly to one barrel - think it was a softer blue bridged one in a zci tbb took me time - looks good yup Hmmmm.... - not so great, back to a decent cyma stock barrel/hop - better range and straight flight yeah - I have still so much to learn especially in hop area
-
I got a SR25 from BBGuns4less at £110 needing attention - seems ok other than a borked stock extended gearbox seems fine (thought it might be cracked was my worst fear) 6mm metal bushings but at least I got option of say mild speed gears like 16:1 bevel/spur on 19tooth sector maybe (12-13-14:1 are not option but better than say 21:1 used on most other long boxes like R85's) so could carefully get some better trigger response but carefully avoiding PE if I stick to say 20rps Oh well - that is way down my list of possible things to do - but always wanted one (yup could of got one for about £140+ at GF but was gonna rip her apart anyway)

http://www.zerooneairsoft.com/product_reviews.php?products_id=2656 Think I got that one somewhere and sure its a smart type your one seems to be this one maybe ??? http://www.zerooneairsoft.com/product_info.php?products_id=2659 "might" be a "smart" charger type - normally they have 2 lights: charging & charged - so "should" stop charging your one has 3 lights - 3rd to discharge battery, then charge & charged I guess So glad I wasn't born in France I can't speak a friggin' word of French so soz not best one to translate it all for ya as I studied French with Del Boy Trotter
-
Hold up, looking on zero one it might not be a smart charger. Reviews says it drains battery then charges it up with desired settings but clearly states about maths crap. Blimey - my old nimahs were smart chargers... If you can't get on with it lmk and I'll flog ya one of me smart ones cheap Or they are about £12 on eBay for a vapex smart type I think. Sure I got a z1 smart charger knocking about somewhere. Soz my bad for assuming it must be a smart charger - oops
-
Welcome or welcome back sir Still a fun place for toys and boys that refuse to grow up
-
Ps all that maths crap was for working out how to charge on a crappy cheap non-smart charger BTW (Suppose those chargers should be called DUMB ASS CHARGERS) OK I'll get me coat
