    avoid jumping in and buying from:
     
    justbbguns
    bbguns4less
    onlybbguns
     
    these cater for kids mainly - yes they have a few on there that are good but in general most stuff on there
    if you bought it and went to a proper skirmish site you will get ya ar$e slapped coz you can't keep up
    you will be out gunned & out ranged big time and just end up getting the hump
    sometimes on cqb you can get buy with cheaper stuff but woodlands at mid-long range you got no chance
     
    Most on here learnt hard way - there are some good guns out there but you won't go wrong with G&G imho
    yeah you can get £80 gun but will regret it in couple of months - trust me on this

    Sitting Duck got a reaction from JamesAirsofterAgent in Help! 13 year old (age) new to airsoft...need help   
    Don't think that is same for all sites though, often my son may do full day & I just do half day
    Young Guns - all players under 18 so kids can't be supervised by parents
     
    Also Zero One own site was running some mid-week full days where parents could drop off kids
    in morning and pick them up at up to about 6:00pm I think
     
    So not all sites enforce a rule that all under 18's have to be fully supervised - just sign a waiver
    so ya dad/mum can take you, fill out paperwork and leave you on your own to get lit up - kidding
     
    rent a gun once and maybe a clear or 2-Tone G&G from Pro Airsoft or Zero One £100 to £140ish
    but try it out first on a rental to see if you like it and if ya parents ok with you doing it
    My missus was a bit freaky at first doing this shooting with son but I explained:
    He is getting out n about, meeting new people, working as a team, getting exercise and better than
    him just sitting up in his room playing online 24/7 raging n all that - he is still stroppy but thats kids

    Well I suppose if you want to stir up a hornet's nest with a unique loadout:
     
    get a T Shirt printed with the words on it:

    But if you did message them and BBGuns4Less have given that reply themselves
    then I think they have just seriously shot themselves in the foot - for real
     
    shame coz they recently got their UKARA status and was kind of trying to improve
    their range of stuff - if they have foolishly replied like that though to a customer
    then I think they may future customers may become a very rare thing now....
     
    dunno how all the message stuff works hence me just seeking clarification or if others
    can see if it went to a forum section and others replied or if BBG4L really think this of

    usa or jap coz uk don't get many good limited editions over here
    often old cartridge consoles had different ends on carts so you either bought adapter
    to run usa megadrive/genesis carts on UK consoles or took front of cartridge off
     
    Ahh the good old days, plus good old consoles that don't need great big fans running
    like crazy trying to prevent RROD or YLOD or BSOD like today's consoles

    Alas there are horror stories with all suppliers - you only really find out how good they
    are when things don't go according to plan and then you find out just how good ANY
    company is when rectifying a problem/return
     
    I bought quite a few bits from them - Dragon for example - which is $hit but that is gun
    not BBGuns4Less fault, but have had a few issues when things didn't go perfectly
     
    The 3 main cheapo "kids" or beginners sites:
     
    JustBBGuns - absolute *!?@#&
     
    BBGuns4Less - tiny bit better
     
    JustBBGuns - probably best ones I have tried, everything is free shipping, fairly true
    reviews but still have to watch what you buy coz there is some crap on there too
     
    Alas any mystery box is gonna be mainly pants stuff imho - yes sometimes it might
    be a lucky touch, but in general you ain't gonna get much if any decent stuff in there
    (fvck me - how many targets or jammy bb's must these sellers buy per week ????)
     
    Sorry your stuff broke so quickly, but they should be taking a better lesson in customer
    service than that, you tried calling them - gonna be a pain to send stuff back and if so
    you lose on return postage - no retailer has to refund you for return shipping - if lucky
    some may send courier to collect at their cost but often the buyer has to pay returns
     
    Often if not too bad I have decided to take the crap on the chin coz not worth hassle or
    cost of postage - but in your case sounds like quite a bit is not living up to the description
    or faulty goods - they will argue it was working but must of broke due to user error
    soz - but you can see how they will answer......
     
    Alas most of the reviews on these 3 sites are done by users who are kids or very little experience
    hence:
     
    Fires at 400fps - coke can test
    awsome range - 20ft
    the best gun I own - it is my first
    incredible rate of fire - more than 3 a second - just
    Just get it - so we can both get owned at skirmish sites
     
    And yes I bought LOADS of FANTASTIC crap.....
     
    Hopefully it wasn't a really big expensive amount of money on mystery box, it sounds
    too good to be true and if you work in advertising you would know very often it is just
    that - too goog to be true like most stuff in life - no free lunch etc....
     
    Hope you get it sorted or at very least partially sorted - welocome to the:

    Finally caved and got an M4. I went for a G&G GR15 raider, used but in great condition. Came with a couple Hi-caps, battery, front grip and sights. Just need to sort out some pouch and some better mags. Which is the most reliable mags? I like the idea of mid-caps.

    Well I got a ticket for zero woodland I think but kinda fell on its ar$e like I said
    so went to epsom bunker instead as wasn't gonna drive like nearly 2hrs if nobody was going to zero
     
    my usual TWA is on Saturday so may pop along for half day - £10
    not sure if I'm going back to bunker just yet but free ticket from zero one gun I bought is valid for 6 months
    (cost me more if fuel ffs but I will go)
     
    other people were either working or couldn't get there - so kinda gave up the following Sunday to Sandpitt Dartford

    Sitting Duck got a reaction from Trojan in Anyone use a battery bag?   
    if ya gonna do that rewire solder then fit a fixed stubby or full size and never worry about bat spec/size
    fit ya lunch in there too if ya want, but fixed stock depends on your play style
     
    if ya going for DMR with 140 etc - and SHS high torque motor I presume
    then fixed full size would be option looking at gun/barrel length & MED
     
    if cqb like Fire Hawk stubby is ideal setup for me, just now n then stubby is a bit short but nothing major
    when out in woods trying to take longer shots but hey I live with it as like I can grab any battery & not worry
     
    sod it if ain't as nice as VS-02 stock, far more practical for me but to each their own
    yeah if you gonna unsolder mosfet module then you could look at changing stock perhaps
     
    Again it is all up to YOU - jeez I spent too much on this, gonna sign off coz I have done nothing for last few hours
    best of luck

    yeah thought at first with title it was lipo charge bag too
    don't use them but I always keep a very very regular close eye on them charging on a workshop table
     
    a few years off a colostomy bag hopefully....
     
    dunno about a great big battery though, might be wise to consider 2 x decent 2200mah lipo's
    can your gun or rather you happy to pump 11.1v through her all time
    could get a 9.9v LiFe battery - or say:
     
    1 x 11.1v 2200mah
    1 x 9.9v Life battery
     
    one battery may last a full day but that is what you have half time or lunch for
    plus all eggs in one basket - bit heavy and if it goes tit$ up you lost ya only battery
    no other backup so to speak
     
    yes 2 batteries may cost a little more than 1 great big mother battery
    ergh but you got bag cost to add to big mother battery too
     
    or say sod it, loads of gaffa/duct tape and nick ya car battery just going nuts full on mental
    keep a spare motor handy if doing this daft idea of mine - no don't do this last bit

    Sitting Duck reacted to Finius in 8.4 volt batteries   
    I'm still a stalwart fan of NiMh because they're cheap as chips and I like what I know.
     
    Any 8.4v NiMh battery pack of the right size will pretty much be as good as any other in my experience, so if you do go that way, just visit component-shop and get some from there.
     
    If you want to go LiPo (which I'd recommend because it's the future and I just refuse to catch up), then I have no further guidance for you.
