    I will say that apart from putting stuff on the outside of my rifles, I wouldn't have a clue about doing anything internal and tbh, I have no 'want' to learn. I will always take my stuff to CAMO or Eagle6 to get fixed/upgraded. I will say if I ever did sell something that needed work, my thought process would be it would cost me  more to get fixed which I wouldn't get back in the sale so would rather knock off an amount to get a quicker sale. 

    Having said all that, I havent ever sold anything that isnt 100% working purely because I cant be dealing with potential after sale headaches

    MikeMarden reacted to GeorgePlaysAirsoft in Airsoft and Covid Restrictions While Playing on Site - Thoughts?   
    The short version is: I'll go airsofting as long as I'm allowed to. Its an interesting question - I can certainly imagine a situation whereby I could go airsofting but would feel weird / inappropriate about it. 
     
    That being said we are in a weird/interesting position where we have to think about the relationship between our individual actions and the collective impact. For those of us who have special considerations - be it ones health, age, or proximity to those who more at risk - then yes some difficult decisions would have to be made, and they have my utmost sympathy. But for the rest of us, its a matter of doing our best to follow the government guidelines - ultimately as much as individual behaviour is a factor, the problem is so huge that really its beyond most of our pay grades.
     
    Whilst I suppose there is little practical benefit for doing so, there is little harm in taking stock and being grateful that we can go and enjoy ourselves when many others, for whatever reason, can't. But I wouldn't beat myself up about it either - we can only do our best to do our best.
     
    As for other hobbies - airsoft is my big hobby. My only online presence is airsoft related. I have other ways of spending my time - computer games, exercise, just dicking about in the countryside... but airsoft really combines all of what I enjoy about those respective things and the whole really is greater than the sum of its parts.

    Equally seem to be buying up somewhat over the past few months. Gone back down the Sniping route, although this time no dressing like a tree & camping!

    Went for a skirmish on Saturday just gone and came back with another recoil. TM Storm, a modern twist to the AK. And I can even add a CTR stock. Whoopie. 
     
    Thanks to my mate who let me have it. Now I need some more mags!!!

    I recently took a recommendation for a set of Edge Tactical eyewear SSE611-TT. Comes with a bold statement of being completely anti-fog.
     
    All I can say is so far as good with these, genuinely have lived up to the reputation & haven't fogged up. I sweat like a beast, up until now have only ever worn heroshark mesh as all other attempts to wear eyepro which isn't mesh has fallen flat
     
    Not overly expensive either at £25, so worth a punt in my book
     
    Hope this helps

    So a further field test with these yesterday, hot day & was sweating like a...... Insert inappropriate commentary here!!, whilst they never fogged up once, the minute sweat got on the inside of the glasses it was game over & had to revert to good old tried & tested Heroshark mesh.
     
    However, not going to leave it at this, buoyed by the fact they didn't steam or mist, will simply buy a couple of Daley Thompson (90's athlete for the youths!) head sweat bands to mitigate my leakage & see if that adds longevity!

    Joined the SRS club, immediately pulled it apart to paint it (along with a suppressor cover). Scope mount also showed up today, looking forward to the scope arriving along with some parts for the SRS.

    Finally after a month of waiting this gorgeous thing showed up... Northeast Sten MkV GBB.
     

     
    Absolutely beautiful replica, and packs a serious kick.
     

     
    Breaks down almost exactly like the real steel, and operates very similarly. The bolt will even fly out the back if you leave the stock off and fire it, so don't do that.
     
    I also recorded a little bit of slow-motion footage to show off the action...
     
     
    I will say one thing though, my second mag seal has already gone, but such are the perils of limited run GBB replicas...

    Not sure where you're based but Camoraids are now sticking Tag Innovation products & should have a fair bit of stock
     
    Now necessarily on there website but they definitely have stock
     
    Cyma M052 works fine with Tags
     
    Co2 over Green gas all day long, first experience with Tags was using Green Gas & had a high percentage of tags not flying far nor detonating, with Co2 no issues with  either, with Co2 you'll need a filling station as well (FIST)

    Decided to revisit the MP7 GBB platform as first time around never gave myself enough time to try & play.
     
    Bought from CamoRaids with their pre upgraded package which packs a mighty punch on 0.40 bb's
     
    Added the vortex red dot for daytime sighting, night time set up based on Zenitco Perst-4 & Klesch-2 attachments to accompany an NV monocular & Thermal imaging scope
     
    Ran this out last weekend at a Milsim during the night & the body count was high!

    I purchased a lot
     
    - TM MTR16 GBB (I will be making this a SBR)
    - Umarex/VFC HK416A5 GBB (looks nice, more trouble than it is worth though)
    - Lots of Warrior kit. Bought a FRV Tailoring shooters belt too but will stick with the WAS belt instead.
