Exactly how I intend to use it. Cannot wait

With how desperate I am for one I am actually quite tempted...

Wish I'd seen this earlier, would've had a go with my slightly outdated UKARA to see if I could get the SMLE from patrol base

Ahhh between this, the SMLE and the Cyma galil I am going to be homeless

Wish it was the week after, have an exam on the monday. Would like to attend a milsim event at some point

Beautiful. Split between a VFC Fal (when it releases) and some pat-70 webbing or grabbing a cyma galil as my R4 and selling my kidney to get an m83 battle jacket.

I'm glad I found out here and not on a much looked forward to game day. I will most likely try it again to be sure as I am quite easily pleased and my friends are all itching to go back, but at least now the shock wont be too great if it is still as disappointing as you found.

How can you mention SADF kit and not post pics, heresy of the highest order

Jesus that sucks to hear I absolutely loved Cribbs when I went with friends, and when the front of my RIF fell off (fronts not supposed to fall off) Dave was kind enough to take me into one of those huge man-cave bunker things and help fix it for me mid game. Like you said can't blame them for wanting to make up lack of revenue but running all those at once and closing that much of the site? Oh dear. Edit - Should point out that all those recommendations are based off of how the sites were in January 2020 which was sadly the last time I managed to play airsoft, and evidently the sites have changed a lot

Spartan Woodland (lots of trees, some hills, decent enough and big site), black ops cribbs (Old army base, healthy mix of close-mid range stuff with the odd sight line if you've got a rif capable of slinging bbs far enough, black ops portishead (Woodland, nice site), Spartan CQB (Old college, really fun CQB albeit the games are usually a bit unimaginative. Had fun at every one of those sites, the only bug bear I remember is the break times at spartan being annoyingly long although I haven't been for a year so could've changed

If they didnt release the FN Fal this year but did release a VFC Carl i would not mind a bit lol

Nice loadout also that site looks absolutely beautiful to play at

Is this the same for all airsoft sites that make you sign a waiver before a game? It doesn't actually do anything?

Are you telling me you don't run a Tactical Pith Helmet as your helmet?

Still waiting

I have a terrible past

No wonder hes beating you he could probably give John Wick a run for his money. Thanks for the turn and shoot idea I'll add it to the list

Just looking to see if anyone knows of any pistol/rifle 'drills' that you can do with RIFs in a smaller space such as a garden. Have a few already here but looking to see if people have some others they wouldn't mind sharing? I dont mean things that help increase accuracy etc just little 'mini games' almost like these. Thanks

Got the Cyma thompson and love it. Use it when playing outdoor if the weathers absolutely shit or if the barrel falls off my CM16. Its great for what it is and is even more accurate than both mine and my friends CM16s which was surprising. I was lucky and got it off TG really cheap last year, but well worth the money. Its been battered around, dropped and covered in mud and still works perfectly, although it does have a habit of shooting two or three BBs even when in single shot if it gets a bit too wet.

As others have said best bet is if on your own just use youtube for basics or get a few friends and have a dry run of the basics together (obviously without RIFs). You'd be surprised how much you can learn without needing to use your RIF, just learning simple communications & movements with friends will do you good. I'd be weary of the courses as often times as others have said its someone who doesn't know anymore than you, its just they've watched Black Hawk Down a few more times, have thrown in a military sounding title and some black cammies > voila, tactical airsoft advisor. Edit - If you have friends with pistols and a garden that people can't peer into/neighbours that have been informed etc you can do some quite fun pistol drills at home. Example being get a youtube video such as this, colour code targets and give specific drills to specific numbers IE 1 > fire 1 bb & reload, 2 dont fire, 3 > shoot 2 bbs. If youve got some friends with you it makes a good competition, we just use folding garden chairs as the targets and stack them against a bench. Another fun one is write up some random colours, stick 8 in a circle on 2 sticks then have your back turned and have a friend call out a colour target, you have to turn, scan and shoot the right one ( can do a trick call and say a colour which isnt there). Again fun little competition. I usually find drills on this youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePrwAQ4GQmY&t=620s&ab_channel=GunTalkMedia, no idea if there is a drill in the video but they usually have SWAT/Rangers [insert US military branch here] on there walking civilians through CQB tactics with different firearms.

Out of the ones you mentioned, which would you say are best for price?
