Looking pretty slick, did you solder up the deans on your gun yourself in the end?

Lonex BAW system - can be had for £200. It's a genuine 'recoil' system, but doesn't have a bolt-stop mechanism. No Idea how good it actually is - but I've had a couple non-recoil Lonex AEGs and they are decent shooters.

Some interesting reading on dying UCP camo here. The OP of the topic states that the due will wash out fairly quickly (10 washes). I very nearly dropped you a message @Asomodai to buy them off you. If you choose not to go down the dye route, let me know.

Patrolbase had stock, most models have now sold out, but this one is still available: https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/specna-arms-sa-e23-edge-2-0-tm?pv=15519 In theory, great value for money. Having been burned by Edge 1.0 though, I'll reserve judgement until there are more reviews for 2.0.

Just you wait - £1200 is cheap compared to a lot of Systema PTW builds. An HAO-based build will be well over two grand, maybe closer to three with gucci real-steel bits hanging off it. Than there's GBLS DAS, which is £1500-£1800 for the base gun.

Just bought: 2x SHS High-Torques Perun ETU++ Some Hop rubbers Some AEG Springs V3 Trigger Switch. Now £140 lighter in the pocket. I could buy a brand new gun for that.....*sigh*.....

That'll do for me.

Pretty sure its a first gen version if it was originally front wired. The newer ones (2015 onwards) are rear wired out of the factory along with a sprinkling of other changes. I quite fancy one. No idea why though.

Yes, but they are just...ok. Had some problems ordering stuff from them, their stock levels were not updated properly on the website. A bit of toing and froing and then a cancelled order. Had two other orders and there was small issues with both (wrong size on one, wrong colour on the other). All rectified in the end, just a bit annoying. BUT this was a few years ago now, and for the money Bulldog stuff is pretty good. I couldn't fault the quality of the chest rig I had and I'm still using the ECU2 Trousers as my go-to kit, I've had them since 2012. If you use PayPal, you are covered with buyers protection anyway, so I would say go ahead and order what you want. Just keep an eye out for voucher codes, they often do ~10% discount offers throughout the year.

Funnily enough, my son's Specna Edge's Gate X-ASR has just developed an identical issue to you. The gun is well shimmed, stock gears, SHS Hi-torque motor. Never really gets hot, and only uses 7.4v LiPos. It'll fire a few a few shots, stop and blink red/green for a 3-4 seconds. Try shooting again and the same happens. Google-fu indicates that it could be a due to being a bit of a shit mosfet. Gate themselves say if it happens to contact customer support. I've bought a Gate Nano-ASR instead - so if it goes bad I can just pull it off and replace it with a spare from my kit box and the wiring setup allows for an easy upgrade to a WarFET later.

Thank you good sir, now sorted!

What’s the sizing on a Warq helmet? I’ve been tempted for those reasons, but I have a mahoosive head.

Whilst I agree 100% with what you are saying, I probably fall into the minority. There are many who would see permanently two-toned guns as an absolute show-stopper and would move away from the hobby pretty quickly. They want 'realism', even if that ends at the point of pulling the trigger where their gun sounds like an angry sewing machine. Me? well, I like realistic guns, but could live without them if I had to, I just enjoy shooting people. Whether that's with a perfect copy of a DEVGRU/CAG blaster, or something that looks like it was spat out of Hasbro's factories, makes no odds to me at the end of the day.

Well, that sucks. I hope it's just an admin cock-up on their part and it's sorted quickly.

Well fuck me, it's like Systema PTW's all over again. Not seeing the justification for the cost TBH - a couple bits of wire, a deans connector, a few switches and a tiny electronics board. I suppose if you've dropped nearly £1500 to £1900 on a blaster though, what's another £150...right? 🙄

Thanks. Perhaps I've ended up on some kind of shit-list. I thought I was going mad looking for the button.

Hi @Jedi_Master @proffrink As title. I don't seem to be able to leave feedback for members on here. Used to be able to do it, but I can't find any link/button to do it now. Tried: Disabling Ad-Blocker Multiple Browsers Using the Feedback link in the header: Through the user's feedback page: Am I missing something? I can't find a button or link to leave feedback for the user.

Lasers can also be a real problem if you catch someone through magnified optics.

Thanks for the follow-up. Glad you've got it sorted.

Try the wanted section of the classifieds:

@paradoxum Please tell me that you are not intending to use one of these whilst actually playing?

I don't suppose there any E&C Gearboxes coming into stock soon?

It's actually pretty simple to wire them up. Don't forget heat shrink, you don't want to accidentally short circuit the battery. 16AWG is what I use. Not all wire of a given gauge can be considered equal though.
