They were $280 for the Stoner, which had only about 100 rounds through it; there was one on AFUK for around £300. The AK was a real steal for about $160, as it needs a new cylinder head and the guy who had it had zero tech experience. So yea, it's going well

My US collection AMX Stoner 99 LMG with Eotech 552 and Xcortech system E&L AKS 74 Budget M4 with Rogers quick attachment sight mount, SPARC RDS, Rogers dual magazine holder, Safariland torch, Rogers Super Stoc, and Rogers Single Point sling. WE G17 with Archives Carved frame, WEI-Tech slide and barrel, Angel Custom Recoil Bar, and custom made internals S-Thunder Grenade launcher Pretty good for now

Hello guys, As one of my first US Airsoft purchases, I bought an E&L AKS 74. It was a broken gun, but only beeded a new cylinder head, and was a fraction of the price of a new one, so I'm happy with that. One thing I have noticed, however, it that it has a plastic slider for the hop up adjustment... I have heard that these are quite unreliable, and I was wondering if I should get the hop replaced as well as the cylinder repaired. Thanks, Spaz

I did not. I was going to a UK university but had applied to FIT as a long shot. About a week ago I got accepted (after I was already in the US for my annual summer trip) to FIT, and it's been hectic ever since. I will get my guns over eventually, but I'm surey parents won't be willing to ship them until my first report card in December. So until then I have to make do. The Stoner is a little present to myself as I have wanted a LMG for awhile but never had the money in the UK, and my site was The Mall, which is mostly single shot anyway, so a box mag is pointless. But not here. The AK was something I picked up cheap as it has a broken air nozzle in the gearbox, which is an easy and cheap fix. And I have always wanted a wood and steel ak. I don't actually work for Rogers, although I am a likly candidate to own the shooting school once Mr Rogers retires. What I was doing this summer was working with one of their graphic designers as well as advertising to local Airsoft shops about their products, and getting Rogers into using Airsoft weapons as cheap alternatives to the expensive "blue" guns they have to use to display products.

I wouldn't say that... They have a £22 charge for green gas transport... Seems I can't get WE gas anywhere... What is it you want? I have family with me now who still live in the UK who could possibly bring something back and ship it to you.

Well, I got to the U.S. of A and realized something about my current situation pertaining to this fabulous sport. I had basically no useable guns, an extremely limited load out, no gas, and only a few cheap batteries and BBs to go around... So let the games begin! First off, I was working at the Rogers Holster Company, so I was able to get the following for cheap: 1x ProFit 578 left black holster 3x ProFit 578 left shims 1x ProFit 578 right shim 1x Universal Magazine Pouch belt FDE 4x Universal Magazine Pouch MOLLE FDE 4x Universal Magazine Pouch MOLLE black 1x Rogers Quick Attach Sight Mount 1x Rogers Rail Light 2x MLS Male FDE 2x MLS Female FDE 1x MMLS Male FG 1x MMLS Female FG 1x Paddle Mount left black 1x Belt Mount left black So that got me the pouches and holsters I needed. Then I needed clothing and such. From PROPPER: 2x PROPPER STL II FDE 2x PROPPER STL II black Now I can look proper (pun intended). But unless I want to throw budget BBs at people, I need guns. From my new US forum: KAA Stoner LMG (happiness) E&L AKS-74 (finally got an AK) 2x G&P AK 130 rnd midcaps 4x CYMA AK 130 rnd midcaps From Tokyo Model: 1x Archives Ivory Frame 1x WEI Tech frame black/gold 1x Xcortech tracer/chronograph From Evike: 1x 8.4v 1600MaH stick 1x smart charger 2000 0.25g Madbull Red Tracer BBs 1x Angel Customs 3 stage G17 recoil spring From Airsoft Barracks (my local store): 1x WE G17 mag 1x Umarex Blow Back Gas 1x Python TBB 6.02mm G17 barrel I think that's enough for now

Their 578s aren't as expensive. And I would say me, but I'm out of the country. Actually, thinking about it, I don't think the 578 fits 226s wit a rail yet. Will need another 6-8 weeks before that model is done. I may be able to get you a 7TS holster; I got one more in the UK that fits my WE 226, but I'll have to see who's around to ship if you want it.

Hello, As some of you may know, I am now living in the U.S. As such, I need a new Airsoft forum ( I will still be active here). Any recommendations?

Ima throw this out and say... Rogers Holsters? Webbing, MOLLE, leg, paddle, belt, you name it, their holsters can attach. Their new 578s are good

This ^^^. All you need to know

I've used both . But got the TM one before I tried them as it was a steal.

I agree with Trigger; you will get a touch better performance with the TM (I know, I have one), but that one should still preform rather well. And yes, be wary of online reviews (I mean, just look at JBBG online reviews...). Just try both out first. I love the TM one though.

Welcome; and glad you are getting back into the sport

Yep, the Brits are good. Unfortunately I started with the American tree, which is possibly the most difficult to play. The Soviets are easy; everything has massive cannons and can easily shoot down other planes. The Brits and Germans are fun to play as well

Sounds the o ring that holds the BBs in is either degraded or missing. Alternativly you could put a bit of tape over the end; the gas has more than enough power to push it aside. Don't use only one piece; use a small one over each hole.

Yep. I think calling it Ivory is stupid; I'll probably just leave it black. It's "Ivory" colored and painted over black, but in a nicer paint. It's unlikly to just flake off.

That's kinda what I was going for The Ivory is underneath. It comes with sandpaper to shave off the layer of black to give it a silver/white highlight. See the attached picture; it's the advertisement photo. The only reason I haven't taken the sandpaper to it is I don't actually believe it will look as good as the advert.

Oh, it was present day for me yesterday. My G17 parts arrived, amoung other things. It's an archived Ivory carved frame, and slide with high vis fibre optic sights with a gold barrel.

Alright. I'm bringing a slide and frame (NO INTERNALS) back with me in August... Hope my UKARA nber comes by then. :[

Welcome

How about coming back to the UK?

I have been using a single fibre optic front sight on my Glock for awhile now, and at the shooting class I attended a few weeks ago I had the same brand of sights (Tru Glo) installed on the M&P 9mil, 22, and the Ruger il revolver I used. They were great, so I'm looking forward to these ones as well

I'm getting the same slide; looks great
