Sites in Dorset/Devon?
Speedbird_666 replied to AshOnSnow's topic in Skirmish Sites, Stories & Reviews
UCAP Valiant is pretty amazing as a CQB venue - it's just off the Dorchester high street. Greggs is a 2 minute walk for a lunchtime pasty too. If I lived nearer to Dorchester it would be my regular site. -
Sites in Dorset/Devon?
Speedbird_666 replied to AshOnSnow's topic in Skirmish Sites, Stories & Reviews
Off the top of my head..... Bravo Romeo (Bere Regis) Camouflage Airsoft (Christchurch/Bournemouth) Ground Zero (nr Ringwood) UCAP Valiant (Dorchester Prison) It depends on whereabouts in Dorset you are moving to. There's quite a few sites within a ~1 hour drive of Bournemouth if you venture into Hampshire. -
You are unlikely to get a response on this one from the OP - this thread is over 3 1/2 years old and the OP hasn't been online for nearly 2 years. The G33 hop unit is easy to source from fire-Support - they restock ICS parts regularly - Just add an email alert to notify when it's back in stock. Might take a month or two - but generally every ICS part I add to my wishlist/notify list does becomes available to buy eventually. https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/ics-g33-hopup-chamber-unit-set If you have concerns - I would buy a spare hop unit and just use your existing one until it breaks. Or just sell the G33 and buy something more generic like an M4 or G36C.

Is it really worth it for such a budget blaster? For the cost of a 'tech' you may as well buy another gun. I would be using it as a learning experience on how to tech your own gun. Worst case is you bag up the bits and stick it in the boneyard if you can't get it working.

I've only played twice this year - I've been selling off some of my Airsoft stuff to thin things out to the essentials. I've been airgun shooting loads instead: about 6 times a month. I've become slightly obsessed with 25m Benchrest.

Fiver says it's a stripped piston.

Invader Gear Plate Carrier Question
Speedbird_666 replied to C-Diddy's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Viper Vx stuff has a similar issue in that they also have non-compatible clips - but the viper ones could be modded to remove a sliver of plastic on the sides of the clip. This allowed me to attach a chest rig to a Thing2 clone. But a replacement set of split buckles only cost a few quid from Aliexpress; https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004716250891.html?spm=a2g0o.store_pc_groupList.8148356.5.4bc93682OmyllU&pdp_npi=3%40dis!GBP!£1.61!£0.41!!!!!%40211b88f116953077730546629e86d4!12000030212331773!sh!UK!1772341666 -
HobbyKing UK is re-opening... special offers on backorders
Speedbird_666 replied to RostokMcSpoons's topic in Latest News
Got the email last week - good to see them back - but a lot of people have taken their money elsewhere when they jacked it in last time. My last lot of LiPos (admittedly not airsoft specific) came from China Hobby Line - much cheaper than Hobbyking in some cases. Hopefully they will rebuild back (or even exceed) their previous stock availability. -
This is coming out soon - should be a much lower cost base gun (albeit all plastic) to stick some upgrades on. Both are Edge 2.0 - the only difference is the cosmetics. Internals should be the same, assuming they both came out of the factory around the same time. There have been rolling updates to the Edge series to resolve QA issues, so there might be minor variances in component choice.

Looks like someone has banned him already.

It's that time again. I have released the MOSQUITO 2.

Any plans for a V2 GB based design? You could call it the ‘gnat’ or something along those lines…😜 -

Fantastic job on this @AK47frizzle Looks like a huge step up from the original version in terms of design. -
Fill valve busted - how easy to replace?
Speedbird_666 replied to RostokMcSpoons's topic in Gas Guns
I'm thinking a small drift/parallel punch (screwfix here) and a small hammer. Place the mag in a vice (don't overtighten!) and use the punch at a 45 degree angle to gently tap out the remaining valve body from the threads. Something like this: -
That's a break-barrel Airgun. More precisely - a Gamo G-Force Tactical. Source: https://www.daileisure.co.uk/gamo-g-force-tactical-air-rifle-with-red-dot-sight https://www.gunmart.net/gun-reviews/airguns/air-rifles/gamo-g-force-tactical-rifle Gamo Springers are fucking awful. These ones were only £100 new, but anyone who knows anything about airguns would probably steer well clear. You might be able to get £20-30 for it, but it's basically car boot fodder.

The GB Shell/Selector/Tappet Plate/Mosfet/Trigger are all proprietary to G&P - much like ARES guns. Might be better of trying to fit another V2 Gearbox altogether into the receiver?

Rattle-can gun camo - show me your *bold* patterns
Speedbird_666 replied to RostokMcSpoons's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Ah ok, let you off - as you were trying to develop, not play the games...😜 There is lots of money on the platform. But it's bloody hard to be 'proper' successful. I'm actually flying out to San Francisco next week with my (18yr old) son for the Roblox Developers Conference - he is a legit Roblox Developer (Gameplay mechanics coding) working for one the main Roblox 'partner' firms. Took him years to get to the point where he could make anything other than pocket money from it. But he now earns nearly double my salary.....😩 -
Umarex are licensed to sell H&K branded products in Europe/USA (under Elite Force) - generally OEM'd by airsoft manufacturers such as VFC, S&T or Ares. HK hates the civilian market with their 'real' guns, so it's unlikely they will ever offer any kind of product to airsofters directly.

1. UK forum - we converse in english here. 2. Google Translate returns this: 3. Which still doesn't make much sense, leading me to think you are a spambot of some kind as you only registered a few minutes ago. 4. Unless you can convince me you are a real human and not a bot in short order - you will be flagged as spam and banned accordingly.

I wouldn't feel too good..... I spy Roblox icons on that monitor of yours.... 😜😁 -

I think you expect too much from GZ/NAF. 'Good' gameplay eludes that site even on a 'standard' skirmish day, so sticking 3000 players on it will definately not help matters. Again - I would bet my left nut that Bravo players are saying similar things about Delta. Can you vouch for the 'honourable play' of the other 1.5k players on your team? I don't think so.

I'm sure there are plenty of Bravo players bitching about Delta too.

I'll counter with JT Proflex or Empire E-Flex for those with larger/wider spectacles. Oh, and Profiler > Grillz.
