    Genuinely pleased for you.  Hope you get the parcel soon.

    Airsoft Range Background?

    I had some left over from a loft insulation job.  Turns out it's also good for absorbing BBs.

    Airsoft Range Background?

    I use closed cell insulation board wrapped in Duck Tape (2"-3" thick) when plinking in the garden.  The BBs embed into the board and the Duck Tape keeps the board from falling apart.  Makes a satisfying thunk as well.

    Gives me hope that everyone's parcels will eventually turn up.  Interestingly I've just ordered something from Bullseye Country Sport, based in Northern Ireland.  It'll be interesting to see how long this takes, given it's an import from the single market area, even though it's an internal UK...

    Airsoft Governing Bodies

    Just signed up.  You should rep for them, as that was a motivating post!  Plus I'm a sucker for a patch.

    Can't speak for imports to the ROI, but reviews of UPS suggest that their performance across Europe is pretty awful at the moment.  There is a tale of woe online about some poor customer who was sent two parcels internally in Denmark and he received one parcel, whilst the other one ended up in...

    Cyma 700.a Barrel Adapter?

    Brilliant thanks!  I'll go and have a look now. @stipsniper great website by the way.  The links are particularly useful.

    OK.  About the same as me then.  I've PM'd you.

    I genuinely had given up all hope for my parcel and was in the process of drafting my purchase dispute with PayPal. Honestly my shock yesterday when it turned up with no warning was palpable. My parcel also went dark for 2 weeks before they looked at it again. As a reminder when was the posting...

    Cyma 700.a Barrel Adapter?

    Cheers. My feeling is one of the Action Army TM adapters might work as they are both 20mm CCW. I do like the look Stip has on the rifle, but those silencers are damn difficult to get hold of and a 14mm CCW thread gives you a lot more options.

    Taiwan Gun Order Problem

    I waited 6 weeks. Have a look at the other thread. Things are moving as TG have been intervening.

    Cyma 700.a Barrel Adapter?

    A quick question. Given the Airsoft Pro barrel adapter for the CYMA 700 range seems to be unavailable everywhere, are there any alternatives out there that would fit the barrel thread? For reference the barrel thread on my 700.A seems to be a 20mm CCW and I'm looking to step this down to a...

    So I went through the parcel and whilst it's clear Border Force had a quick look at the contents based on all the Home Office tape that adorned the package.  The RIF and it's box and all the other bits I'd ordered were absolutely fine.  I don't even think the contents were taken out.  It looks...

    So true. I tend to intercept him if I'm in to save him the bother of scrunching up the letters as my punishment. I'll be investing in a mailbox in the future! Yes. Off home in a bit so I'll let you know. Aside from the RIF I can't even remember what was in the bloody order it was so long ago.

    Email from UPS Customer Services this morning telling me parcel is still held. Tracking shows no movement from Stanford Le Hope. The wife then sends me a photo of a package that's just turned up. My jaw literally hit the floor. Like @lukeB Border Force have had a good examination of the parcel!

    Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)

    A development this afternoon, but please note that UPS Customer Services said that they were still investigating the whereabouts of this parcel, so who knows what the truth is.  TG also emailed me after I queried what they were doing to get this parcel delivered.  If you follow Negative Airsoft...

    The use of the word "should" doesn't fill me with confidence. I'll see what happens this week. By Friday it'll be 6 weeks in transit, 5 weeks of which have been in Essex!

    I did wonder if Reading was either my local depot, but it's more likely that's where they "investigate" lost parcels when the system wonders why something hasn't been scanned for two weeks.  I'm betting that the actual parcel hasn't moved from Stanford Le Hope since it arrived.  I had to chuckle...

    Well this is a new one for UPS.  I mean genuinely what on earth does that mean? Doesn't look like it's moved from Stanford Le Hope and it's simply a variation of an import scan.  If they want instructions how about: "deliver the bloody parcel"

    Courier post is not held for weeks by Border Force, given the urgent nature and fast turnarounds most companies operate to. I'm sorry, you are being fed a load of nonsense by UPS. They said the same to me and I challenged this, given I work in this area. This morning I received the update below...
