I get what you mean, but sometimes there is so much stuff google throws up and its not always helpful. I ask the Forum quite a lot of silly questions Im sure, but I do attempt to find the answers myself mostly... I just posted about holsters, as I am looking for something particular, I have searched google and the amount of sites/forums it has thrown up confuse me even more. I have kind of found what I want in regard to that question, but just want some input from real people who have maybe used them and know more about it than me... That being said, the amount of people asking what gun for £30 with laser aided accuracy is kind of tedious... I also think there should be a locked thread with a single post with a link to a combat raider we could send people to for the daily "should I buy this £120 springer from just BB for shooting my sister"....

I have 3 loadouts which I am currently running. An Olive Drab one for woodland with a chest rig (where I jam my Pistol into a spare M4 Mag pouch on my rig) A lightweight Merc/spec ops stylee black/OD set up with pouches hanging on my belt and a drop leg holster An SAS CQB inspired loadout with a nomex suit and vest. Using the above Drop leg holster But I need a new way of holstering my pistol which could be utilized in a couple of different ways as my drop leg is pretty useless, it hangs down to my knee, is not adjustable and not very stable. SO my question is.... Is there a holster which could be used to fit in with the SAS loadout, so it sits high on my thigh with minimal straps rather than halfway down my leg with my stupid drop leg and also be used to attach to a Molle battle belt for my lightweight loadout.. I have seen some holsters which have a kind of clip attachment making them very versatile and removable for different applications/holsters. Does anyone have any knowledge or manufacturer names? I currently have a TM M92 but may even change this, so just researching suppliers for the mo..... Whilst price is not an issue, I dont want to spend real steel money as I have seen the cost of some and they cost more than my toy gun

Finished ranting? lol

I dont keep count as a rule, as long as I am having fun its all good. That being said, sometimes when im in a decent position and well dug in I will count kills from a single position, my highest total is 18 from one point before I had to move or was shot..

Anyone there this thurs??

You say now your going for a look nice effect, I was EXACTLY the same a few months ago, you end up buying all this gun jewelry which in the end makes it look worse as you put more and more on and don't know when to stop. I would recommend leaving it alone if your happy. Once you have used it you will find things you want to do, I have changed my idea and opinion of my Raider about 4 times since buying the bloody thing and have a whole box full of bits I bought, put on and then removed from the gun. What you like about it now will most likely change once you start skirmishing, you may want a sling, different sight, playing indoors in dark areas a Tracer unit, new style grips, new look stock. This hobby never stops......

Airsoft confessions Yes love this new toy gun only cost £80 as it was on sale

Combat Shirt & Pants A-TACS FG Camo w/ Elbow & Knee Pads $84.99 $8.49 Save: 90% off I would be wary, clearly selling at a loss, is Airsoft Club a legit site? But check out Military 1st online. Great choice and decent ranges for every price bracket.

Best bet is to look here.... http://www.componentshop.co.uk/batteries/airsoft work out where the battery goes, and the room you have for it which would give you the physical size of battery which could fit. Component shop tends to have dimensions for their batteries meaning you can buy one to fit. If its just to get it working go for a 9.6v pack, if your looking to skirmish and run the weapon properly check out the Li-po section, something like a 7.4v . Bare in mind a normal cheapo charger will not work with a Li-po, you will need a proper charger. PLEASE CHECK THE BATTERY CONNECTIONS ON THE GUN..... There are a few options when buying a battery and you want the right one or its a headache. I ordered the wrong ones by mistake last time and stuck with em, luckily a mate had a little adapter which works for me fine and just about fits in the stock..

Sound advise but I have other guns for cqb.

I use .25s already... and I run a suppressor on it and like the look, so a longer barrel running through that would save me replacing the outer barrel and save on cost too. thx for the replies so far

Hi guys, My Combat Raider has had a speed upgrade done by a tech and something to the motor too...I am happy with how it fires but I would like to try to increase the range/accuracy and possibly FPS a little.. Would a better than stock Barrel and Hop up do anything for me? It seems pretty straightforward to change but I want to make sure I am: A) Doing something worthwhile Putting in something which will benefit me/the gun C) Buying the correct and compatible parts Could anyone reccommend a barrel and hop which is better than stock and will do something to the range/grouping or general benefit of my skirmishing I have no idea what these things will cost but would buy better parts if the benefits were noticeable so undecided/ignorant to budget!.. EDIT**** Forgot to say its the short version, But I wouldnt mind putting in a longer barrel and then an outer barrel for a better range, as my pals long barrel Raider out shoots mine (in hindsight I should have bought the longer but only played CQB at the time)... QUESTION! I assume this would not be a problem? The rest of the internals would be able to cope with a longer barrel surely?

Dragons lair near Brentwood Essex.. not too far, great atmosphere and a tidy site. Not the biggest woodland but large enough for diverse play and games..

Yeah on it.... PM..

Excuse the typos.. fat fingers n small phone whilst walking are a bad combo.. im actually surprised there are not more!!

I deliberated on all sorts of carrying aids for skirmishes. I was sold on a plate carrier as i wanted the protection in cqb and the option to carry loads of things by putting pouches all over it.. However i couldnt get in with one.. found it restricting and bulky so i bought a chest rig... loved it and customised ot with extra pouches. Now i feel i carry too much stuff but always fins myself wanting more pouches to be able to carry more kit... Its dangerous. I carry too much but need so much more!!!. My (long winded) point is only you wikl know what you need and want to use once you play often. I find myself constantly adjusting loadouts and kit.. But then i play cqb and woodland and have a couple of guns which require different pouches so its not easy knowing what to have.. Theres no such thing as THE PERFECT loadout as we arw all didferent with different guns and needs. Id love a low profile set up bit ots not my style. We tend to tweek loadouts and kit after each game..

There is no Forum team as such.. But yes a lot of us southern heads attend the Mall quite a bit. If your asking as you need someone to tag with, start a thread about when you are going, if any regulars are too then meet up in the safe zone and say hi!... We dont bite... Hard..

There was a guy at Dorking a few weeks ago who was almost blue head to toe due to picking up a smoke nade to throw back just as burst out Looked like a smurf!!

In theory a good idea. But unless its on both arms, Back. Helmet. Chest. Gun. And both ass cheeks the chances of someone seeing it and using it as an identification is low so pretty pointless.... That being said i voted for any of the above... If someone was to call out my Name, Surname or nickname it would get my attention so would work. Unless in a milsim where id patches could be encourraged (and all roughly in the same body area) people wear a vast array of kit, loadouts and costumes at a skirmish the idea wouldnt really work..

Proud Gooner over ere!!

Kinda off topic but its surprising how quick some social media inquiries get some companies replying.. A mate of mine was waiting for ages for a refund from the council, 4 months untold emails and a single tweet later, it was sorted.. He got an instant tweet back and a call asking him to tweet it was resolved as it was done right there on the phone.. Social media is powerful as many companies dont want the bad publicity!. He tweeted the resolved issues, then a day later a long ass rant slagging them off

Balls.... Was starting to get excited as I have been looking for a night game near me, but am away with work that wknd GRR........

Shame, me and my pals are in Dorking for EAG's skirmish otherwise we would be all over this

I tend to use mine when dead and heading to the spawn or safe zone, DEAD MAN ON TORCH and flashing it upward at junctions lets people know theres no threat coming through and saves me getting blasted close up. But I know the layout quite well and am confident of finding my way. If your new to the site make sure you have one, but you may not need to use it so much during the fight as it DOES give away your locations. Loads of times I have seen a torchlight before hearing people whilst I was sneaking around. Allows me to lay an ambush or to move position. And the 50/50 tracer mix is great, I use it a lot down there, as it does help to see where your shots are going, although I turn the tracer off when in sneaky mode I LOVE the look of spent tracers which have shattered all over the floor...

BILLERICAY!!!!!! I never realised they got THAT far when I noticed they were missing from the basement!!
