Post above makes very good sense. If you save 40 pound on a Chinese case, spend that extra 40 pound on a better GPU. Goodlucl

Santa seems to disagree with my choice of hobby so unfortunately it seems not much of airsoft goodies

Reading you subject line, I thought you wanted some relationship counselling. Stay with the psycho hose beast or dump her for new girl? Disappointed now, I like to offer advice on non-mental health questions

I get a little bit of wood just looking at that bad boy

Could just make one out of cardboard....

PolarStar finally completed. It won't be to everyone's liking but I'm happy with it.
Like an idiot I did a little touch up this morning and sprayed the Jack in error lol. No bigger it can be cleaned off.
 
 

 

 

Glad you like the sport but say goodbye to seeing money in your wallet

Here's to another expensive hobby. Excellent fun today in Fife and the guys are fantastic.
 
Hicaps make soo much noise though

Trying to finish the diorama. I managed to make a tunnel by burning the side of the polystyrene with a much so it got the right shape, layered it with sand etc. Still waiting on the dead animals and trees. Started making wire.

So, this model I made at the start of the summer is now on its way to the Air Cadet Corp modelling championships much to my complete surprise:

 
I also got the chance to lay out my collection of evil for the Lord of the Rings:





 
What has everyone else been up to?

Badlands down at Havant held a safari game hunt event couple of weekends ago I believe, sent a couple of guys out dressed in lion and bear onesies pmsl. And not a dentist in sight!

Whilst beating your chest and generally displaying your manliness and dominant male attributes n1ckh??

Nope, I just stick my head out & get it shot at

It would be an awesome project!

He probably went for the classic yellow raincoat and no trousers. Mosin with no ammunition and a bright orange drybag.

Would have loved to do a load out from the Zulu film (1964 and as a red coat not a zulu )

Picture contains: My WE G17, My TM Foliage Warrior, My brother's WE PX4.
Foliage Warrior was kind of an impulse buy, but well worth it
 

Well here goes.
 
Colonel Kurtz
 
Hes a player I have played against and on the same side a few times.
 
Hes a sneaky sod who likes to flank the enemy and generally get into places you least expect someone to be. Hes also a good attacking player who you can rely on to storm an area with you.
 
Never seen an issue with hit taking and I have shot him a few times. Generally a well mannered relaxed player.
 
Hes a good player to have on your side as he goes for the objectives and doesnt just camp around for kills (you get a lot of that at the mall).
 
Hes a lot quieter in person than he seems on here. Comes across quite reserved but definitely doesn't play that way.
 
All in all a decent player, cant really say a bad word about him, except maybe he shot me in the finger from about 2ft away a few weeks back and it was the one that had only just stopped hurting from when I fractured it playing in June. B@stard!
 
 
Someone elses turn to spill the beans on other forum members now. Lets hear what they are really like.

I think this is the first time I've been back on the forums in literally months. =[

I've more or less dropped the hobby whilst I sort my finances out, sort a car out, and sort out a house. It's a 3 year plan but hopefully it won't take that long.
Despite not playing for months, I am still buying stuff though, because y'know, nothing slows down your life plan like spending the money you're meant to be saving on new shiny gun stuff...

Most recent purchase is an Elcan Spectre DR and a 20mm conversion mount for my L85.

I must admit, I always thought I preferred the ACOG on L85s because it takes a funky canilever mount to get it on there, but the Spectre is definitely growing on me. Mainly because, in the airsoft world at least, they're just infinitely better optics. This thing trumps my ACOG on literally every front apart from maybe size (because it's massive) and weight (because it might as well be a brick).

Better glass quality making the clarity much more crisp, no more foggy view as per my ACOG. The reticle is beautifully clear, not lop sided, and doesn't blur against the target. It's also illumated with 12 levels of brightness across two colours, and the eye relief is fantastic - no more ramming my eyeball into the rear lens to see anything.

It also has the bonus feature, well sort of, that if you configure the red dot on top to zero to the main optic, then every time you rezero the main optic, you simultaneously zero the red dot as well. Due to it being slaved to it; when you adjust the main sight, it's the sight that moves on its mount, rather than the internals of the sight moving within the body, and since the red dot just sits on top, if you move the main optic, you're also moving the red dot, so they stay zeroed to the same point. Win win.
 
Though I have yet to field it, so that may mean knocking it causes it to lose zero... In which case I'll be very annoyed and counting that as more of a fail than a win, but for now it seems a handy feature. Certainly makes it easier to switch between multiple rifles as the time spent reconfiguring will be halved.

But anyway, pictures:

Love the police box, what scale is it? I could do with a 1:1 for the back garden, it would alleviate the problem of only having a toilet upstairs and not needing to build an extension.

Don't matter to me......
 
my DIY TARDIS is nearly finished - so I can live pre Oct 2007
 
what do ya think ?

 
 
AND DON'T SAY ITS CRAP
 
jeez and they say us airsofters are sad - seriously some of the Dr Who fans REALLY need to get out more

Wait a minute this didn't turn into the usual ukara shitstorm arguement... I'm gonna go look through zero in or UKAC to make sure I haven't quantum leaped or something.

Er, on a serious note let's just remember that a valid defence isn't clarified but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be careful. Again, I've been without UKARA for going on two years now but I keep a copious record of my attendances just in case.
 
If you're reading this in two years time and you've just started airsoft then firstly, well done for getting the search to work in IPB. Secondly, if airsoft isn't banned already then don't be naughty - have a defence.
 
There - our disclaimer is done.

NOT THAT YOU'D EVER THINK OF DOING THAT

Just make sure you dont accidentally get some fairy power spray on it and remove the paint when wiping off your accidental spillage. Dont tell people on internet forums about your mishap either, it might give the wrong impression.
