I'll play devils advocate & state this is my local haunt & go to site, visited other sites in Kent which have their own plus & minuses, but enjoy Apoc on a regular basis which keeps me coming back & being part of their regular Milsim series. As stated site is huge, they only use Zone 1 for Sundays - Zone 2 is opened for Milsim events, good that the site owners have a vision to continually reinvest & develop the site, also for us regular Milsimmers who attend the site there's been some great FOB development as well. Numbers have regularly been +100 for some time, a quieter day is more around the 50-60 mark, was there recently & were 200+ in attendance UKASA pitch not as much now Shame about the comments regarding Martin - He can be quite a marmite chap & I get it, that being said I like the guy & always got on with him. Marshals are good guys & generally if something is bought to their attention they deal with that on a case by case scenario. Equally us Skirmishers / Players are often a unique breed, maybe Martin has succumbed to that & adapted 😁 Toilets I agree but I generally like to clear out prior to an event to not have to succumb, however that being said bucket-flush over portaloo any day for me!! Site is never going to be for everyone, hence Kent having a decent selection if Apoc isn't for you.

I posted a picture recently of the TLSFX Mortar & bangs which I acquired - After reading this I'm somewhat disappointed I wasn't pulled up on the throwback to the 60's table cloth on show!! Anyway - Back on topic, invested in some TagInn Multi R launching shells, ditched off my green gas variants & opted for C02, added some Kydex TRMR holders which do the job perfectly. Looking forward to playing around with these, but need to hoover the office floor first!!

Ah a resurrected thread - Yes my bad, should've stated 0.20's! not 0.25's bringing out the c340ish FPS

Hi mate, Purchased from TLSFX UK - https://www.tlsfx.co.uk/ They do a deal when buying the launcher & pyro up the volume of x20 Outside of the x20 they're all priced individually Hope this helps

My love of Pyro continues! Ordered the 38mm Para Mortar from TLSFX Our resident NATO opposing force in our ongoing Milsim series likes to dig in deep - So will deal them some boom from above

Will have it chrono'd on Sunday so will let you know, update I had from Camoraids prior to dispatching was it was hitting 70m on 0.32's - Feels like it packs a decent punch

Picked up a little purchase from CamoRaids. TM MP7A1 GBB - Small bit of fettling to add a Maple Leaf GBB Autobot Hop Up Rubber 60D & EdGI 5.98-6.03mm Brass Inner Barrel to give it that little more poke! Will be used for night time raids, using the PEQ & Tracer to compliment a set of Nods, being able to cover distance at a pace & fairly lightweight as well Standard additional mags so I'm not caught short!

Nice! - Where did you pick these up from? Reapers out of stock everywhere I've looked!

Will let you know if any good

My recent purchases, invested in a launcher a couple of months ago, initially with a 40 Mike & Master Mike, not with the intention of close range activity but more with an aerial scatter bomb approach aiming up & letting the bbs rain down. Fortunate our local site does allow the 40's but using a 30m MED & sensible use Our monthly Milsim events has a team which likes to play defensive & dig in behind cover, so thought this could be a decent idea - opted for some tags as well to mix it up against the regulars with mortars Interested to see how they all work, if the 40's are shite then i'll stick with the tag rounds

Hey buddy - Yes the dual tube FLIR, green as opposed to QS in this case 🙂

Hey! - Someone posts a picture of their bare ass on here & it's the Forest Unicorn that gets the piss taken?! 🙂

Hi all, After seeing someone post on here regarding AirsoftFaceProUK on Facebook, decided to take a look & invest in a couple of MK3 Snoods with integrated mouth guard for two different scenarios:- 1st was to compliment my night set up, opted for a skull cap over the usual fast helmet as I find these too clunky, however wanted something lightweight & breathable on the lower part of my face which equally gave me some protection against BB hits, the black snood w/ integrated mouth guard more than does the job as well as giving my large bugle (Nose!) protection 2nd was for my sniping set up, compliments a leaf hood & custom face mask, I used to wear a thick balaclava underneath this set up but was too damn hot, so again opted for something which gives me a lighter layer of protection whilst remaining light & breathable. Am looking forward to putting these both through their paces at a Milsim event next weekend

Sourced mine via a supplier on Ebay, a couple of UK based companies also sell them:- https://www.odintactical.co.uk/crye-precision-nightcap-mount But you can definitely find cheaper elsewhere - Think I paid around the £70 for mine, shroud-wise I opted for a FMA jobbie:- FMA Helmet Accessories VAS NVG Shroud Aluminium Mount Airsoft Gear TB1253 - BK Hope this helps Thanks Mike Ah, here we go, much cheaper as well:- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Crye-Precision-NightCap-NVG-Mount-Cap-Black/232951207299?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Thanks Mike

Hi mate, works perfectly fine without the counterweight to be honest - just wanted to distribute the weight better as some of our previous night ops have gone on for 4-5 hours continuous & was thinking about the longer term!

Morning all & Happy New Year, few purchases from me, for 2019 i'm diversifying my playing opportunities. Plenty of events already lined up for 2019, we have x6 Milsim events at my usual haunt which i'll be remaining Op4, however am looking to get out to some single day events & buddy up with a different bunch of players so the obligatory NATO / Multicam has come into play. Have gone back into the plate carrier realm, after falling out of love with my previous carrier as it was too heavy & bulky, this time have opted for a WAS Recon which is lighter, slimmer & more accessible, few sensible attachments added - Triple elasticated mag pouch / single point sling, universal pistol holder, radio pouch & smaller hydration carrier. Have once again opted for Clawgear apparel - MKIV Raider trousers, an Operator shirt & a KD One molle belt. Also diversified my night time set up, up until now have been kitted out with a Pulsar XD50 Thermal Imaging scope, but as our local Milsim scene has evolved with different storylines etc. with some events ruling Thermal out, have invested in some NVG, here we have a set of FLIR BNVD-51 NVG. Had their first outing a few weeks ago & was highly impressed, exceptional vision at night, first time using nods as opposed to a Thermal scope, easy to get to grips with navigating & target identification. Worked well with a DBAL-A2 PEQ with IR pointer. Rocking these with a Crye Precision nightcap / FMA L4G24 mount & lanyard. Given i'm normally rolling Op4 opted for the cap as opposed to a helmet. Set up nicely now for 2019! Let's hope its a good one Airsofting-wise Mike

Something a little different (but not so different!) from me again! - One month to go until the next Milsim at Apocalypse Airsoft - Theme for September & November will be the U.S. Army vs. NVA & Vietcong. Emphasis is a back to basics approach, so no Thermal / Green eyes & modern day tech - Just senses, hand torch & iron sights only! Currently in 2018 I've been a Russian, Sicario within the Diablo's Mexican Drug Cartel & now a Vietcong soldier, has made for an interesting year!

Thanks buddy - there were x12 of us all dressed fairly similar, we were all surprised how good the camo was, what with a decent couple of sunny day & a lush green & dense woodland it worked rather well, something none of us were expecting!

Something a little different for me- local site, Apocalypse Airsoft in Kent had a 48 hour Milsim last weekend, theme was Police & DEA Vs. Mexican & Colombian Cartels. Have to say that this was the best Milsim (& most fun) I've attended within the past few years. I was on the Mexican (Yellow Diablo's) - Given the time out on the ground opted for something little lighter, WAS Plate Carrier & all attached binned off in favour for a WAS Battle Belt & back plate system, lightened the load considerably whilst still being able to take all essentials out with me. Yellow dress up kit was all EBay jobbies & all cost less than £30 WAS Battle Belt / sling system in A-TACS AU Marui 416D Delta AEG Jack Pyke Tundra Boots Hero Shark "Mako" mesh bins

Clawgear stuff is ace, have got what you have but in A-TACS AU, pricey stuff but you get why you're paying that bit more with the quality of the kit.

Hey buddy it was this one from Helikon..... http://www.military1st.co.uk/ko-cs2-po-40-helikon-combat-shirt-with-elbow-pads-a-tacs-au.html Although had to source this through a company in Italy. Was a similar scenario for the plate carriers, sourced from Europe ( I got the DCS & RICAS ones) as UKT didn;t have any stock & only manufacture when they have an order of x100 from the distributors :-0 The Clawgear trousers I also sourced from Europe, all of the pouches from UKT though. Has been a fun & trying week!

Apologies for the orientation of the pictures - no ideas why they're appearing on the side!

So have started to go down the path of saying goodbye to all of my ACU-Digital gear, which has served me well for the past 2 years now. Moving onto A-TACS AU, have attached a couple of pics of the new plate carrier, is a Warrior DCS 5.56 carrier, with x6 magazine pouches, x2 medium sized storage & the command panel, am awaiting on the hydration pack, separate water pouch (for Milsim use) & a pouch for the obligatory radio, all will be in place by the New Year. Have also invested in Clawgear MKIII Trousers with integrated knee pads & a Helikon Shirt with elbow pads, this is on top of the accompanying A-TACS AU gloves, balaclava, face mask, patches & a rucksack, has been an expensive month! Will post some pics of the full kit once I’ve taken stock of everything.
