Sitting Duck

DOGZ NUTZ - get it snake skin looks really nice - not sure if its 101% vcra legit 2-tone but they have been doing these for a while so no worries - it is down to them Doubt very much if you could do better £150 metal G&G ok no loads of rails but the handguard - battery up front is very solid to mount a grip on etc.... or a Short Raider @ £123 if ya a bit strapped but if you can afford the GC16 30th - go for it ya Umarex G36 should be ok - might need a service but that ain't a terrible gun if ya get it serviced me thinks

101% agree if you are happy with setup/motor - solder is best but depends on ya gun/box V3 - nice n easy to do/remove - did solder motor on AK12, can always remove frame/motor option to work on box V2 - bit more of git to do - so soldered the connectors with extra solder on bends on recent DSG FH (or would have to keep desolder/resolder motor to work on box) Some guy did solder a v2 motor and had bananna type plug/socket in pistol grip but space could get tight for motor in there plus it's another join Hence did the connectors still - ensured tight fit on motor & extra solder on 90 degree bends - damn V2's

No worries sir - I got LOADS of cheapo stuff or starter stuff I see another one, won't get rid of one I got but still need to have more crap I'm not loaded either, but mortgage free so I have a bit more to splash I guess mind you 3 kids (2 x teenagers - one of which is driving going to uni next year) With 3 expensive kids - it still feels like I have a mortgage jeez what I can't spend all my cash on me this month ??? (yeah dream on but wouldn't have it any other way) I know I am doing ok, and we all work hard etc.... but it is great we got all sorts of people on here - fantastic mix So if I ever I stop breaking my cheaper stuff then I know I can ask you & others on here what is a good higher end gun.

I actually rather like it, looks the part to me but I'm no expert on the real thing but normal v2 box - up to say 465/470 barrel. rather than go down the custom 25 v2 box with its longer piston/cylinder/sector understand it just would look wrong with a 300+ hi cap on there though, spoils the look full fixed stock or crane - hmmm not sure might change full size to stubby but doubt if that would look right Deffo looks like the DMR part to this noob, more rail space to fill with almost any extra you will need (and add to the weight when you try to pick her up & leg it)

Get down to poundland 99pstore by a sheet with all them watch batteries on there..... just above the mount rail there is compartment - shove in 2 cells (well open it up and see if there are any dead ones in there - but most likely 2 x 1.5v) EDIT - Mack is correct - I f*cked up in this post it is NOT AG13 - these went in my Eotech I used AG3's in the ACOG - way too small diameter wise but did the job to test it out my bad for saying you need AG13's - they will never fit in there - just checked Correct battery is L936 / LR45 / 394A / AG9 - cheers Mack for what its worth here is a chart with info on sizes/codes/different numbers etc..... Seems like me using AG3 is 7.9mm diameter instead of 9.5mm diameter - same thickness 3.6mm but smaller capacity So seems like I should also order up some L936 / LR45 / 394A / AG9's Thanks to Mack - soz for me talking out of my duck's ar$e once again - my bad

I'm not sure exactly what all that is but I'm sure of two things: it will kick ar$e like all of your stuff & quite likely it will be out of my lower end budget range

Wow, you mean there is some mofo weapon you haven't got yet ??? - kidding

http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/25800-general-election/page-11#entry195655 did say Clegg was the only one that admitted he f*cked up - even on the 7 leader debate he owned up and I really do think the Lib Dem's did a good job in keeping a balance or lid on things.... We wait n see if the Lib Dem's retain some power to assist in forming a coalition. But kudos to Clegg for having some honesty and integrity - though in politics, I think it is so rare he may be in the wrong job

No worries m8, get ya exams sorted first. I'm sure I will be going back to Reading at some point soon after

Thank Christ I never booked the Mall - lol Anyway - shopping & shooting, sounds like I best think about doing some overtime..... Nah.... - I thought about it and its the thought that counts as they say......

I'm getting ready for this - all that backyard garden training is ready to be implemented at a moments notice No seriously - this is the real deal & forget using .12's this time I'm gonna be packing .20's

Do any of them have the balls to admit they screwed up - let alone say sorry its a blame culture of today (everybody just wants to blame anybody else than put their hand up and say - yeah soz I think I dropped the ball on that one) Only one that I respected of having some integrity was Lib Dem Clegg - at least he said he admitted he f*cked up with the tuition fees rise everybody else just blamed him, her, no him, what do you mean it was you, no I think you will find it was her.......

Think it said on site it was on calendar - Mall Open day - spaces for 17th http://www.zedadventures.co.uk/calendar/ http://uk.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/root_Collectibles_Airsoft_Showcase.htm# bought 2 tickets @ £8 - they say £10 on door LWA, Pro Airsoft - shame JBBG not on list anyway I'm up for it to have a nose n crap - see any of you lot there gonna get myself a new loadout maybe: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Duck-Costume-/131407943764?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1e98861854

Right whose going ???? Not gonna commit to full day at Mall, might be too busy buying more guns but deffo gonna pop along, look at new toys and maybe quick 30min game or two 17th May - The Mall in Reading lots of people showing off stuff - sounds like toy heaven & no doubt try out a bit of Mall Maybe return later on for full day at Mall...... Anyone else going - could be closet thing for a southern meetup so far ??

Labour have screwed themselves, with SNP they have a massive drop in Northern support So now they are really struggling to gain any strength - no way will they get a majority on their own The Scotts don't trust labour - but also Tories have lost support to to UKIP so they are kind of boned too They didn't get enough support last time and won't do it this time it seems Lib Dem - well it is so unclear how much weight they will have as SNP & UKIP have gained so much ground (according to polls - but most of polls are all over the place so who knows really) Hence this is gonna be one messed up election and proves both the main parties are a little out of touch to say the least They have failed to listen and more importantly - deliver their pledges and too many are now not fully trusting these 2 biggies anymore Plus - even with all polls, the actual voting in of seats/constituencies may be quite different result to how the population as a whole votes The tactical voting malarky stuff on narrow margin areas as oppossed to safe/secure stronghold seats jeez - who knows, and tbh who cares ?????

Exactly what I feel - I admit I am not feeling wealthy as f*ck, felt a few cutbacks but who hasn't Only the frackin crap & the dangling of the EU vote carrot is causing me to glance at UKIP. Not gonna bash other parties but either they wind me up or talk bollox - or wind me up talking bollox actually Actually - Ed - you are a sneaky liar with a face that needs slapping - swear he should be selling timeshares/crap stocks n shares jeez I just don't trust that c*nt one bit, Nicola you get on my nerves and you ain't got a f*cking clue where money we ain't got will come from Still not sure Tory or UKIP - like UKIP have said they (goverment) could of done this n that in last 5 years if they wanted Yes some UKIP people are a bit extreme with views - but think all parties have those if you look hard enough tbh - be glad when it is all over soz taking a swipe at Ed & a little at Nicola - just my personal view vote for who YOU think - none of them are perfect anyway & over 50% of us won't want the goverment elected

Thought they were a bit thicker sure it said 16awg on wire supplied - you can't always go by the outer thickness - it is the actual wire itself or Conductive Surface Area malarky that counts...... switch wire was very thin - but I actually use a tiny bit thinner twin ptfe wire for trigger/switch signal wire cheap silver wire that fits in almost any gun: http://www.taiwangun.com/en/2-meter-wire-with-low-resistance-ipower?from=listing&campaign-id=14 (cheaper 2m length seems the same) http://www.taiwangun.com/en/1-8-meter-wire-with-low-resistance?from=listing&campaign-id=14 (1.8m but same sort of stuff) They are a good price for decent wire for most builds - thinner but stiffer insulation than fatty 16awg silicone turnigy wire much cheaper than buying the Modify brand over here - well next time anybody does a TWG order easier to fit in tight v2 boxes than silicone, especially where motor is v3 boxes wire is external so you can run thicker stuff outside the box Always deans, solder the "bends" of motor connectors - they can blow like a fuse when bent on M4's so I "carefully" dab solder on the elbow/bends (dab of solder inside/outside of bend - hold connector upwards to avoid solder running down motor connector end though) These are the 2 points where you encounter the most resistance & drop in "juice efficiency" (check connectors are tight fit on motor of course) Ultra thick as possible wire is great but them connectors - the connector bends on M4's are so weak, plus not easy to solder wires direct to motor on M4's Run thicker wire with the least amount of joins/breaks as possible - any joins must be as solid as possible or more loss from resistance in joins

+1 for the dinky little fet - £10 delivered with built in fuse etc..... actually +2 - seems bloody good under stress tests good bit of wire supplied - fancy box highly recommend them - if anybody needs a cheap good fet ready to go you won't go wrong with them even build your own 3034 would cost ya say £5 with getting bits n bobs & wire, so for a tenner - good call m8 I just ordered up some more deans & bits for my own fet's but the firestorm fet I am well pleased with it is non-AB fet but tbh most of time AB is not needed for most builds unless you are really going nutz

I was referring to G&G - lol, I might have a play with my B500A1 one day if I got REALLY bored But though OP could turn the 363mm carbine into a DMR gun - performance wise I think there is a chance he may find himself converting it back to a decent starter aeg. If the G&G isn't shooting too great - give a little service/TLC and it should perform better and find he has better range/accuracy & forget DMR I often think I might give it go - but still as of yet I enjoy getting stuck in (sitting in dead zone mainly) but running around sweating my nutz off, screaming like a girl, tripping ar$e over tit through bushes/stumps, getting covered in crap/cuts, shot by own team ffs = seems to be the fun bit for me anyway

sod it buy another gun, try sniping with a cheap AK SVD or MB06 or something.... Guns: G&G CM16 Carbine, Bulldog B500A1 - leave G&G alone - it is a good gun - if range is issue get it sorted Bulldog B500A1 - well yeah I like a challenge but don't think I would bother with upgrades on that - except a fresh battery See if you can get into snipining or "DM" role, single shot MED hanging back and no longer "steamin' in", say mp5k as secondary Then if you feel you might like the more "supportive" role and feel yeah I can get into this..... Then look into getting a more "suitable" looking rifle perhaps ???? Many people "think" they wanna try this or build that - DMR - DSG - Sniper - TM GBB pistol - HAS TO BE FULL METAL - blah blah blah Often though they find their first initial thoughts of what they need/want/must have - 6~12 months later they have changed their minds I'd test the water a little bit first before you start ripping apart a good starter gun when you may not like/need to

classic plumbers trick - my late father used that on fitting gas pipe joins

No Germany was not a threat to us - it is well documented Hitler did not seek conflict with Britain as he saw similarities to Germany Also the links from certain members of Royal family - we was at that time regarded as no threat to Germany..... How long that may have lasted - who knows ??? Maybe if Germany had aquired most of the French fleet they may have a strong reason and fleet to cross the channel (hence we blew the f*ck out of french fleet soon after Paris fell to Germany - no wonder the french hate us) All wars/conflicts are a waste of lives, time & money - if the human race didn't have the selfish greed gene and its ability to $hit on people then there would be far less conflicts - We have entered into numerous conflicts over the centuries the more recent ones may not have been wisest decisions - but we are screwed whatever we do....... In some conflicts the West - US, UK Europe etc.... if we don't get involved we are accused of doing nothing or turning our backs If we do offer to support or assist we risk provoking situations or making matters worse.... Hindsight is a wonderful thing to look back and pass judgement - maybe the west should of left Saddam Gadafii & f*ck knows who else in charge The whole middle East is a mess and very doubt if any real democracy will ever work coz they are so used to a dictatorship to keep them in line But as we know - if there wasn't oil out there - the west really wouldn't give a f*ck about it so much Again all about selfish greed & a sprinkle of wishing to control others - that is where a lot of wars have come from The rest of wars over history were about religion or politics - 2 subjects that certainly ain't worth a w@nk or losing ya life over This country/UK has made judgements - some right - some very wrong in making a stance it is a fine difficult line to walk - but think most of the judgements were deemed to be the right decisions made at the time Politicians are certainly not perfect - neither are the public - wish more difficult decisions were subject to a vote by UK citizens So yeah - why not let people decide on Europe rather than being TOLD to stay in Europe If there was a major conflict issue - hopefully they could at very least gauge if Syria was in best interest or not Or do we do little to intervene, or do we worth with devil we know to maybe rid IS - well doubt if that will happen but reduce IS by working with the lesser of the two evils - a tough call or bury head in sand I do not have the answers - but I trust/hope the elected goverment to listen and CONTINUE to listen to the people who appointed them If they are not sure - then admit that and seek advice or UK vote etc.... to me that shows they are working for the majority of UK and giving the people some power back to make decisions etc.... Obviously this is a lot harder than what I said above but you do wonder why us stupid UK lot aren't kept better informed (then we wouldn't be so stupid maybe), but also - yeah why didn't we have a vote on the middle east why don't we have a vote on Europe ????? somewhere there is a workable balance but Tories are saying well yeah maybe vote on Europe UKIP - say wtf lets vote on this sooner rather than later - why haven't we had this vote already ?? Rest of them - NO WE ARE STAYING IN EUROPE - yeah some "democracy" I am trying to stay out this coz I understand we all have different views and I do not seek to change anybody's own views just now n then feel the need to express my own views but do not wish to enter into any rows or long drawn out debates very little will change - opinions or politics but do feel a vote on Europe is a good way to settle it plus controls on immigrantion does not mean I am a member of the local KKK ffs just makes sense we need to make cuts and reductions in all areas if we are still in the $hit a bit and want to try and get out of it

As a very very very ROUGH guide...... Box open, no spring/cylinder/tappet plate etc.... Start with big middle or Spur gear & bevel gear.... bushings: require much less shims than bearings thin shim under spur gear & few shims on top bevel gear few shims underneath & thin shim on top bearings - similar but will require say 2 thin or a medium shim under spur & on top of bevel - then a tiny bit more to take up "slack" Sector is done last after those gears and shimmed as what is required - but after spur/bevel The bevel gear is shimmed a tiny bit higher than a tiny bit too low - coz as motor is wound inwards it forces the bevel gear up a bit - more so if bevel is too low being forced upwards to get a good "mesh" between motor/bevel if bevel is way too low it is forced tight against bushing/bearing and really strains the motor and box..... NB: please note this is a very very rough guide and please seek out a few videos on how to shim - watch a couple at least with good reviews/comments I only put this rough crap description together to try and describe where I was going wrong on my first lot of gearbox tinkering...... It really was a bad set of guidelines I was following on a repair kit instruction that only after I googled and watched stuff I realised what bollox I was doing you should check and really take your time in shimming and aim to get it as best as you really can, don't aim for perfect zero play shimming a little isn't bad when holding box together by hand - but should test by tighten - NOT MEGA TIGHT the box up, coz when screwed up that little play by hand halves itself when screwed up.... The way the gears lay/sit, a tiny gap as gears lay in box but don't cross etc.... - sounds simple but can take 6, 12 or more attempts to acheive the best possible shimming results you can get or get within your own skill/patience/ability etc.... The better it is shimmed the longer it will last - fit the best possible bits in there but if they are just chucked in even a crap box with pi$$ poor bits but properly assembled box will last longer

On the subject of not getting dragged into wars that don't concern us.... yes the UK has stuck its nose into quite a few conflicts that don't concern us yes we still await the outcome on Iraq/Blair bollox until after the election.... Still if we kept our noses out of other countries - I suppose the whole Scotland Europe and who to vote for UK goverment wouldn't be an issue We could very likely be in Europe for good - Hiltler's Europe
