  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Looks like someone has banned him already.
  4. Any plans for a V2 GB based design? You could call it the ‘gnat’ or something along those lines…?
  5. Fantastic job on this @AK47frizzle Looks like a huge step up from the original version in terms of design.
  6. 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:
  7. That's a break-barrel Airgun. More precisely - a Gamo G-Force Tactical.

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.
  8. 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?
  9. 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.....?
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. I wouldn't feel too good..... I spy Roblox icons on that monitor of yours.... ??
  13. 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.
  14. I'm sure there are plenty of Bravo players bitching about Delta too.
  15. I'll counter with JT Proflex or Empire E-Flex for those with larger/wider spectacles. Oh, and Profiler > Grillz.
  16. After many years of dicking around with various solutions - I settled on a Paintball mask + own design goggle fan. Never fogged and the added face protection has been very useful playing at CQB sites.
  17. Or you could contact them yourself.....?
  18. Is the issue the magnification? 1.5x seems readily available here stateside
  19. Might be better off just sticking a Perun Hybrid in it and call it done. Much better unit than the Falcon anyway. I will be selling off my M904G in the next week or two - I'm thinning out my collection and I have a bunch of other M4 platforms that I can use.
  20. Stubby stock plus a couple new LiPos to stick in it (£24 posted for 2 packs from China Hobby Line).
  21. Need to dust off my 3D printer - but my next project is a super-minimalist fixed battery stock for G&G receivers (ARP9 Etc). Designed to hold at least a 2200mAh 11.1v LiPo - some smaller 3000mAh packs should also fit. Length is around the same as stubby length M16 fixed stocks - good for the speedybois and/or smaller statures.
  22. Old carpet works well as a backstop. The Airgun club I'm a member of uses it for their target stands. My local (independant) carpet shop has skips full of the old carpets removed from customer houses. Ask nicely and you have enough for a dozen backstops for free.
  23. You are right. The GB will fit - but a motor will not. Oh well. If I had money I would consider an HPA-specific build negating the need for the GB shell/motor, but that's out of my price range. Finding a long enough length of Picatinny extrusion for the upper rail in the UK is a ballache as well (the front end would be a 38mm Aluminium box extrusion with metal rail segments bolted on) so I will shelve the idea. Had fun putting the model together though.
  24. Pretty much finished the MR-C Model - I luckily came across a couple of official Crye renders of the gun (via the Internet Archive from Crye's own website ) which made me realise that the proportions were wrong. So I basically rebuilt the whole thing again, but I had a lot fun doing so. Seems like the real thing was a very small gun - just over 700mm, which is fixed-stock MP5 territory. @mightyjebus Don't suppose you have a V2 or V3 GB model that I can use to check if it's viable to build the gun? I did model one myself last year - but lost the file.
  25. A few minutes of t'internet searching reveals that it's a bespoke colour called 'Canadian Average Green'. Doesn't seem to be a RAL number for it - but Cerakote 'Noveske Bazooka Green H-189' is supposed to be the closest match (again, no RAL number). Much like H&K with their 'many shades of RAL8000' - there is are colour discrepancies between the stock and other furniture parts.
