Sitting Duck

ergh not experienced with higher brand stuff
I can only afford the cheapo shit as it lessens the blow to wallet when fucked
 
I would guess fill it with wrong gas & go nutz
then send it to somebody like Luke
(coz I know fuck all about pistols & especially anything TM related)
 
now if you got a starter gun or cheap mid-range one you want wrecked
then yup ask away...
 
I'm just the AF-UK version of Doug (from Scrubs)
He has killed sooooo many patients he isn't cut out to be a doctor
BUT due to his "experience" he is very knowledgable in diagnosing how a patient died
(coz he has killed so many during his time)
 
 
 
yup I'm the AF-UK Doug I reckon

THAT is how it is "supposed" to work exporting to a third country outside the EU
 
It is gonna involve more paperwork/fees & a ballache (at first)
plus civil servants/taxman etc... even buyers/sellers hate change
 
Me personally I think they will come to an "arangement" if they don't reach an official AGREEMENT
They (EU & EU states) stand to lose revenue from VAT if zero rated to 3rd country/WTO
So I reckon even if no deal they will "allow" some flow of goods still if VAT is paid
 
BUT though UK Government had said fuck all tariffs will apply to most cases
I think HMRC was looking forward to the shift in revenue just on VAT alone
 
Now throw COVID into the mix - everyone is fucking skint on all sides
No Deal = no £39bn - there is a LOT of needed revenue at stake
so who really knows ?????
 
Of course if UK goes full WTO, no deal, no £39bn on 01/01/2021
then that is it - EU gets little - no settlement, no VAT on exports to UK
But sellers will likely slap on some admin fees to clear ports but still way down
 
I do NOT have the answers - I'm only taking a WILD guess at to what "could" be in the event of WTO
I'm merely pointing out what happens & where the VAT is applied/where it resides in whose public purse
(VAT is an EU/EEC invention as prior to '73 UK had a sales tax, so this VAT term could be phased out in time)
 
UK can not deviate from 31/12/2020 due to EU's 7 year budget ending then
if we go past that point - UK is likely for a massive EU COVID budget for next 7 year term
(Hungary/Poland have veto'd it just recently on some issues of law)
 
WTO - UK membership in 2015 cost 7,579,535 CHF (Swiss Francs)
or less than 6.3m pa (very little compare to EU membership)
The EU's membership in its own name - FUCK ALL
(coz it makes nothing, yet creams off from the 27/28 members
who are WTO members in their own right - clever little number)
 
If UK goes to WTO then revenue will start residing in UK's public purse
I feel EU may consider some loose "arangement" though than end up losing the large VAT revenue they enjoy
(though EU doesn't get this VAT directly - it generates growth which is used to calculate members fee)
But some of this finds it way to Brussels in some form indirectly etc...
 
If it goes hard Brexit, no deal, WTO then fine, at least the revenue will stay in the UK's purse
(yes our own UK's exports suffer but financial services VAT is reclaimed anyway)
 
Yes as I see it it won't make a massive difference imho
there might be a day or two delay in shipping/clearance of red tape for a while maybe
& the VAT/Revenue should end up staying in UK
& if prices rise more than expected (moderately at most), then that in turn favours UK busineesses maybe
 
Yes if you are really concerned on something large you absolutely must have
then get your order in by early December is best advice if you can afford it
(I do NOT know for certain - NOBODY DOES, just pointing out what WTO to 3rd country "should" mean)
 
but try not to panic like project fear tells you
(unless you are the person who stockpiled all the fucking toilet paper in March/April this year)

You "could" have damaged the trolley or shuttle part of switch unit
(bit that gets pushed by trigger, into the switch contacts)
 
Less likely trigger itself is damaged, more likely a damaged trolley
either underneath where trigger lug/sear engages it
or at the ridge/ramp part where the Cut Off Leaver engages & lifts it on semi
(Sector cam raises COL that pops trolley up from the trigger sear & pops back
 
The other component is a worn Cut Off Lever of COL
Usually made of alloy, non magnetic/ferrous & can wear if you shoot on semi a lot
The COL's often don't appear to be worn at first glance...
until you compare them against a new one - then you notice how worn they can get
 
When COL wears quite a bit, it hardly lifts the COL via sector semi cam
and thus doesn't lift enough reliably to pop the trolley from trigger sear on semi
 
Without seeing the issue & test firing to see/feel what the symptoms are
it could either or - worn/busted switch/trolley or worn COL
(possibly both even)
 
If the trigger ever feels stiff coming from auto to semi
NEVER force it, plop it back into auto & do a quick burst
Then hopefully it will cycle with COL lowered and fire on semi OK
 
Force it - easy newbie mistake & you risk busting the trolley
 
PITA these guns, but you get to learn & understand their qwirks
Use them correctly (not forcing crap)
And hopefully they last a bit longer before needing servicing
(Well that is the general idea - don't always go to plan though)
 
Best of luck - ya getting there bit by bit hopefully
 
(Hate using my mobile, poxy thing to respond on)

Sigh - is why you shouldn't believe EVERYTHING project fear says....
 

Feel free to check online your own GF orders etc...
 
 
An old GF order of mine where 23% VAT is paid in country of origin prior to shipping
& on arrival in UK fuck all is paid = dosh for Poland, nowt for Blighty
(This arrangement benefits countries who export more - especially Germany
UK is Germany's 4th biggest export market & I think France's 6th market is UK)
 
There WAS 28 EU members before UK departed
19 of those members has a slightly higher rate above UK's 20%
Hungary is highest at 27% VAT
Denmark I think was 25% and is applied to EVERYTHING - hardly any exemptions
 
UK has one of the lowest "overall" rates of VAT imho
UK has the largest list of zero rated items = 0% on food (ingredients), kids clothes, baby seats, books & other crap
There is a lower 5% rate on VAT applied to domestic gas/electricity & tampons
 
Ahhh but Ireland has zero rated tampons - great if you are on ya blob
but pay more VAT on gas/electricity & other stuff - yeah I think UK is not that bad overall
(plus I think Ireland you pay income tax straight away where as UK you are allowed £12.5k before you pay income tax)
 
UK imports 2:1 what it exports to EU on average
but a lot of UK exports are services & finance, much of that is reclaimed on finance almost immediately
so even less remains in the UK's public purse due to what we export
 
The whole tax issue is quite complex & varies from each country
There is a lot more to all of this & I don't fully understand it all
But I have done a bit of research since 2016 & it is not all doom & gloom like BBC, Sky, LBC etc... would have you believe

No, they are VAT inclusive and will show the VAT breakdown in the invoice 
The same goods in different countries can vary widely in price, but that’s generally a different mix in overheads and variations in the market changing the balance of viability.
 

Remember though if WTO & UK is a third country..
 
Then EU exports to a third country are zero VAT rated
 
So if you buy from Poland you should no longer pay Poland's 23% VAT
Then on entry you pay UK's 20% VAT plus any import fees
 
It is a question of WHERE the actual VAT revenue sits
 
That is how it is supposed to work
Buying from Gunfire "should" be zero rated VAT to a third country outside EU, then pay UK VAT & fees on arrival in UK with the revenue staying in UK public purse
 
If you listen to project fear everything will rise 50% or even double
But WTO to third country means exports are zero rated

Do you reside somewhere around Bristol
or the Outer fucking Hebrides or something ???
where post is sent over by boat once a week or something ???
 
coz you have had some fucking shit luck
have you upset every postal & courier in your neck of the woods ???
 
hope all turns up OK - in the fucking end sir

Yeh - they can't even get their name right in the website address on the contact page:

Heh, that is a shit job.
 
The one I did on both my amoebas was fine though. Still drilled, but I did it very carefully and removed all the burrs on the inside.
Also I used a 3mm bit so the hole is tiny.

Chinglish not too good...

pretty sure it should be:
 
STAND OUT AND SHOOT - not stand out & shot
(or is that stand out & get shot/lit up like I usually get)

At 53 I have finally finished a degree in Fuck All
 
I now profess to have learnt everything about nothing
& absolutely nothing about everything
 
What I have gained is a an arsenal of broken toy guns
If anybody wants advice on how to break them - I can help
 
Fixing the fuckers so they break less often...
Well that is the tricky bit we are all still learning
 
One of my favourites about life n shit (Inc peew peew stuff too)...
 

 
Welcome to the forum squire - ignore me (everybody else does)
Bet ya seen a lot of changes over the years
Only been into it for 6 years just over but stuff has improved in that short while
so stuff today must be like a PS5 Vs PSX

I have been keeping an eye on a certain Danish site at a certain "odd" rifle for about a year. Waiting for it to come down in price from it's 220 euro vault. 
 
It came down to 40% off.... I still waited... I got a 5% discount from the news later... still waited... Then a stackable 15% discount came through in the newsletter and I had to snap it up! 


 
A New Old Stock JLS RX4, the last one I can find for sale new in the world. It's so ugly... but it only cost 99 quid! Old school G&G M14 internals. Gonna get it stripped down and turned into something great. 
 
JLS RX4 £99
King Arms 40 Degree Bucking £2.50
Element V3 Spring guide for £4.50 
AND EVEN RARER. 2x Systema Fa-Mas upgraded spring guides. only £2.50 each. I have no use for them at the moment as I already have one spare, but it would be rude not to considering its a proprietary part.
 
Its been a good evening!
 

Goddamn thats some sketchy teching. I mean jesus does the guy not have any pride in his work?
 
I feel for you man i really do. This is why i really endorse folks to learn it themselves because then things like this are less of a risk to deal with when you can fix it yourself properly.
 
By the sounds of what your site tech is saying he's talking the right language (identifying lack of spring on hop unit for example) so maybe he can get it sorted?

I guess Zero In or Zero One forums was down that day
 
min 100/250/500 posts
hand note with name/date etc...
 
soz but many different forums adopt this rule
and any exemptions - there are some should pm mod with say ebay feedback or something
to verify their integrity
 
dodgy sellers can carry on with Free Ad's & other sites, but most of us on here
have a bit of integrity & not fleece others, treat as you find & all that

don't blame the student, blame the teacher
