Ambush Adventures http://www.ambushadventures.co.uk/ u18's young guns but as you are 16 you would be fine with waiver form and go to any skirmish site they got a new urban site - the billet or something - not been coz not my local alas I'm over Kent/Surrey Side only dropped son off at Young Guns u18 once - bit kiddish he said and prefers the general skirmish rather than kids only skirmish days but they seem to be around your area Surrey/Hampshire way -
if you get a good make of battery eg: vapex 1600mah you might last a day ok if you wasn't going nutz most peeps tend to take 2 batteries and change at lunchtime rather that bat 1 go flat halfway through afternoon batteries do lose their holding charge as they get old (old laptops often have a battery that lasts 15mins) but a brand new battery "might" be ok if you go easy - but everybody plays different (some will do say 500 (sniper) or 1,000 bb's & others can do over 3k of bb's in a day) you need small tamiya connector on the crane/nunchuck battery and try to get a cheap-ish smart charger Smart chargers can cost about £12 upwards and they charge but turn off so they don't cook/kill battery place battery on worktop or old table and charge it - never on carpet/bed keep checking it - there is a small tiny heat/fire risk like with all battery charging - so don't be silly and go out just keep an eye on it now & then and keep watching it - common sense really 1 battery might last you or you might find you crap out on the last round of the day - but you say you not spray n prey hard to say but reckon you may be ok but you may need to get another at some point in future would suggest 8.4v (3+4 sticks) or 9.6v (4+4 sticks) max some may say lipo - not 11.1v and also you need to ensure lipo nunchuck/sticks fit in stock/tube usually the 8.4v or 9.6v nimah's go in most places fine - well unless you get the really fat diameter ones but in general most nunchuck nimah's are the thinner sticks and pop in crane stock really easy

it is indeed but I have to keep reminding my "clever" kids.... Oi - ya mum & me passed our feckin exams without the invention of Google ASCU - wow that thing is all singing & dancing - even makes the tea after it spots, aquires & fires at target for ya
-
all I can say is on a budget then maybe go to cqb sites where lower power stuff won't be at such a disadvantage like on woodland mid/long range (plus you may find snipers will pick you off before you get within range of your low power guns) soz can't give advice on shotty's either - bought a mossberg cheapy and was pants and just kept to AEG's - one day will like to try a tri-shot one though
-
Showing my age...... DOOM - all your buddies are dead/slaughtered so instead of getting the f*ck out of there you are gonna give them what for - yeah right !!! mind you that is same with most stuff I guess Oh and not really in-game but in the classic "Beat 'em up's" how many times have we shouted: " I F*CKING BLOCKED THAT !!!! "
-
Mesh ones are ok - still sweat a bit but was grateful it just covered my jaw got a point blank shot at bunker on my jaw and f*ck me was I glad the CRACK was the mask and not my handsome boat race........ edit removed other gun coz G&G is way way better for OP
-
Raider is great choice Long or short version if you play woodland Short might be a little better for inside/cqb As well as being a great starter gun it will be easy to sell (Try giving some of them crap guns away) Battery - nunchuck 8.4v or 9.6v max or 7.4v lipo (Don't go nutz on 11.1v out of box) Smart charger for nimah 8.4v/9.6v Or lipo charger if using lipo It req nunchuck battery - 2 sticks joined together Decent full face mask might be needed for u18's (Depends on site rules - deffo full face u16's) Extra mag might be nice but think you get 300 or even 450 on raider Decent bb's 0.2s either zero one or local site will sell them Some old clothes n boots - that's you sorted for bare min Other goodies clobber can wait if ya on a budget But that above is best way to start out (No point buying some kit & try to use a crap primary)

Nigh on most guns under £100 are not very good There are a only a couple which are not too bad But even then they are way below par on say spending £125 on G&G CYMA JG models In a nutshell you buy those guns they won't last too long You will be at a major disadvantage with them on a site When - not if they go wrong, you will have a major headache Coz the normal spares don't fit in there easily (If at all) Oh and this guns will hit 250fps max on 0.2s despite what they may claim Better guns will hit 330 - 350 and last longer etc.... Trust us coz many have bought those proxy ones and regretted it

complete noob here so please be gentle (thats what she said)
Sitting Duck replied to sharpe's topic in New Players & Arrivals
All of us were noobs at some point - I still am tbh - I love being a noob coz there is $hit loads still to learn keep the learning curve steep or life can get boring Welcome to forum - kudos for knowing how to search - too many love be spoon fed you seem to know a little and more importantly want to learn more like most of us G36's are very popular in cqb & site rental guns but its all down to what suits you in the end in here it is a little more relaxed and more noob friendly than some mega ultra serious tech sites so less chance of getting flamed for asking dumb questions (my speciality dumb ar$e questions) -
http://www.airsoftsociety.com/forums/f10/v3-cylinder-head-question-30778/ and yup I was jesting about that black cylinder head thingy - i knew it was a tiny lipo thingy watsit some cylinder heads are labelled v2 & v3 heads - though usually the v3 head has a slightly longer "spout" than v2 then again have seen v3 heads in the "long v3" & "short v3" - jeez and I thought v2's were agro
-
got some with lump on them - they "might" be for say aug or some certain makes of boxes say hello to my friend mr dremmel head meet dremmel dremmel - do ya usual, what's the worst that can happen ??? yeah the minor tweaking has crossed my mind but still got to work on v3's yet Oh and the other black thing deffo not a cylinder head (i think - just kidding )
-
is it just me thinking this but...... 2nd pic looked a little like some old dumb blonde 10 pinter minger out on the pull but first pic looked very good, maybe a tiny bit blonde but depends on where ya buried I guess
-
tut tut tut - non takers they fail to see how they can f*ck it up for all plus I have found they can be the biggest whingers if boot on other foot you always get 1 or 2, plus the odd genuine time when we are all pumped up and not seem to feel it straight away but we "try" to play fair n call hits - christ its just a game with toy guns besides no matter how good some people "think" they are.... when you see some experienced & co-ordintated teams play - yeah I still have so much to learn when I do then I might pop down to the more serious sites - is a long way off though but I'm having fun all the same Glad you had a good one - loads more to follow I'm sure & ukara etc.....
-
at least ya knife worked ok then - bet that felt good stopping that mofo's gallop stuff like that and the odd pmsl funny stuff - that is what makes for great day win or lose in my book (yeah its good to be victorious but I mainly go for fun & enjoyment first)
-
Blimey - best keep on Mrs Duck's good side then Hell have no fury & all that stuff she could flogg
-
well I learned something about springs n stuff many thanks for advanced open university course of airsoft enginneering plus now got a posh term "proprietary" when I find some mofo TM compatible bits are not gonna go in without a gentle adjustment using the trusted "hammer + file the f*cking thing" technique (prefer the term: bastid cheap spare parts that don't fit in this pile of crap mofo crappy gun)
-
+1 for ak12 ya did & another +1 for getting the blue off the a47 nice collection indeed - any radicalist would turn green with envy (soz just kidding & apoligies if last remark offends but does look a little like an IS armoury)
-
I have used paypal for GF & TWG - never had problem got email from paypal as per usual & confirm of order from GF the very first time though it did take a while for them to process & ship it out but that is quite common (been told many places wait a few days before processing order in case of paypal scam) Also at time of first order they was moving premises so it took I think a fortnight instead of 1 week to arrive keep an eye on it over next day or so - or ring paypal's free support 0800 or email Gunfire if no movement in next day or so First time a little delay but after that was done & dusted it is easier than using ebay
-
Blimey - what did you get sent down for ??? Married with kids ??? Serving overseas ??? Just kidding and none of my business why the the 10yr gap welcome back and have a great game - show them youngsters how its done (or hope you don't get owned too much if a little rusty)

Cm16 Upgrade barrel *HELP NEEDED*
Sitting Duck replied to woodlands36's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
CM16's come in wide range of barrel lengths aprox 220 to 363 depending on actual model 110/120 on FireHawk and 220 on short raider to say 363ish on m4a1 carbine your long raider has a 357/363 barrel so most likely has some ports say 3/4 to about 80% of the way back I would guess your cylinder is almost deffo ported to provide the appropriate amount of air 509 is way way too much and almost deffo result in absolute pi$$ poor performance if you fit it (509 is for full unported cylinders and at/over the limit unless you have the longer cylinders like sr25/l85/svd etc.. - which you dont have) how much/often have you used it - if skirmished at a site what fps is showing ??? more importantly clean barrel first - even just with a dry bit of kitchen tissue check how it performs and how you feel it did perform in the past..... (also in colder weather range can be effected anyway) most likely it could do with a few tweaks after a year in BUT only by somebody who knows what they are doing (take it from somebody who first few box's didn't work too well and lost $hitloads of bits in process) dunno what range and power you are expecting most G&G's are about 330 out of box and this may drop to 300 in say 6 months regular use - all guns/springs lose some tension but it may still perform ok. it would be good to know the fps - spring/seals may need changing but this requires opening up box - by somebody who knows/careful (if seals all worn and poor fps then all the super tbb barrel + hop won't be as effective) clean barrel - see if that helps it is free change bucking - another cheap thing about a fiver get it chrono'd properly if possible or you are guessing with coke can tests or unless you are very very very good/god walks on water can kind of roughly tell how good it is (hence why they make chrono's) decide exactly just how pi$$ poor ya gun is first - they all lose their ooooomph a bit clean barrel & new rubber is first thing like many have said -
Women will never understand... And we will NEVER understand women man says "fine" = fine woman says "fine" = no it fecking ain't fine but just you wait & "we need to talk" = you are in deep $hit Mrs Duck puts up with so much $hit from me & all that - but I know how lucky I am Mum's are peacemakers trying to keep everybody happy/apart sometimes The responsible one in our house of pure chaos and probably the one taken for granted so many times 3 children but its the 4th kid that gives her the most hassle ( me ) Yeah they nag, moan, keeping on at us - but often us blokes need that as I for one am useless with running house (she has been taken care of things or mothering me so long now - yeah she has been in charge for ages it seems) Lucky coz it ain't a power struggle really - we are so different (opposites attract) yet so similar in many ways (think I'm her bit of rough - very rough btw) Soz to hear so many couples not so fortunate to have found their soul mate But behind every Good Man stands a Good Woman (and behind her stands another guy clocking her ar$e) right that is my take on relationships which is worth jack now can we get back to looking at guns or fit ladies with big guns & bigger breasts serious - more gun pics please
-
why - was it her engine you still haven't fixed it ??? perfectly normal - dinning tables make perfect work tables btw
-
aprox 10 seconds max - 30secs plus is a miracle already did it to a similar gun on 11.1v lipo https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/%28%28not-working%29%29-D-Boy-Full-size-M4A1-Carbine-Fully-Automatic-BBgun.html removed bits, got out plastic box with its powerful dildo motor attached, connected a lipo up to it just "tested" it to see why it didn't work - it did work but not for long and another thing - never use lipo's on "other" toys around the house mrs duck had a smile on her face for weeks but that is another story
-
think most have 1yr on aeg's - 6 months on spring/bolt snipers & shotguns tbh if it did go tits up it wouldn't be too bad to fix unless the plastic externals snapped (doubt it unless you are a clumsy clot, so if it wasn't too bad or loud bang I wouldn't bother shipping it back) to me it is a gamble on buying from these sites at discount prices but yeah you could ship it back if needed don't mean gamble as in taking a chance - but it just part of the course that it ain't a local shop to pop back to then again I suppose it would cost a little to shipaeg back to zero one or lwa etc..... usually buyer has to pay return postage so if something small needs fixing it might be cheaper/quicker to sort it yourself is what I was meaning the srt-13 is a cheapo 28c which is a plastic recevier 039c so it should fit a 39c rail cover on it I have one of those mounts and I see no reason why it wouldn't fit on like 39c but think battery hassle would make me want to fit a black crane stock for rear wired battery AK with M4 adjustable crane stock ??? (Ian would hate it - yeah might be a fun project to do ) just learned the cyma 040i has a crane stock with nunchuck battery at rear kinda much more longer railed tactical front end + rear crane battery I might do a cheapo plastic 39c type with the 40i ar$e end on it (hate them long stick batteries in top cover - besides that is plastic on srt-13 so would break real quick too) would look a bit odd - just like moi
-
does look tempting for about £75 - £76 inc delivery looks a lot more expensive from first glance and if I didn't have so many M4's I reckon I would get one (or two) coz it would be worth taking a gamble for a nice looking gun like that
