    'Standard' Game Rules

    I think the main issue with the clip you referenced that the site is using "surrender kills" as a substitute for a "bang kill" but this is an American site so perhaps less said the better on that one. If we work on the assumption that the surrender kill must be taken at that site then logic...

    Bulk Pyro?

    Admittedly when it comes to bulk buying pyro I tend to shop around and email the various retailers to see who will do what (assuming you know what it is you want and can give details (type, quantity etc.)). The last bulk order I placed was through Zero One and I found them to be pretty good...

    Is the King Arms Fal/Slr Still Coming?

    Given the opportunity I'll be picking up the FAL from King Arms as I'd love a reason to put together a Cold War British Forces kit. It would also be good for some Cold War events once we're back at that stage.

    If Only Guns !

    Dredd's Lawgiver or Deckard's pistol have to be on the list. Come to think of it I'd also throw in Malcolm Reynold's pistol from Firefly.

    Missing Links in Airsoft?

    @125cc - Thank you for the compliment, it's greatly appreciated. Supply has been an issue for some time but previously retailers would get restocks, varying in size, throughout the year. While this often resulted in products being unavailable for significant lengths of time, it was...

    Missing Links in Airsoft?

    Wishlist. At the moment I'd love to see a return of a decent line of FAL's, specifically an L1A1 SLR. If the Ares was half the price then I'd probably grab it simply due to a lack of options but given the plethora of known issues it's a firm pass. Admittedly I wouldn't mind picking up an...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Finally found an airsoft version of the SA80 Bayonet. It fits my ICS L85A2 with repro Surefire flash hider and in theory I should still be able to fire with it on the rifle although I suspect it will largely live in a sheath. Now I just need to get a surplus MTP sheath for it and the black...

    Sniper Elite (Film 2014)

    Maybe this should become a wider discussion regarding films in general and airsoft? One of my personal pet peeves is seeing "spec ops" using Baofeng's in various shows or plate carriers with nothing but air occupying the spot where there should be plates. Are these actors so unfit that they...

    Anyone Else Booked Their First Airsoft Game Back?

    I can't say I've looked into it as of yet but I'm starting to plug some gaps for certain kits in anticipation. Admittedly I'll still be hedging my bets and waiting to see how thins develop as the rules are relaxed and the inevitable press of bodies occurs amongst the wider public.

    Yet Another Shining Example of Stupidity Within the Community - Basingstoke Incident

    Stumbled across this by chance and thought I'd share it: https://www.basingstokegazette.co.uk/news/19178437.police-called-covid-breach-seven-people-travelled-airsoft-game-beggarwood/ I suppose part of me isn't surprised that there haven't been more reports of similar activity over the course of...

    We GBBR Opinions

    @EDcase Admittedly, I previously owned a Tokyo Marui MWS and parted with it, somewhat reluctantly, for a few different reasons. Admittedly I never found that I suffered against AEG's in terms of volume of fire/rate of fire but I'm perhaps in the minority that runs low/real cap's and tends to...

    We GBBR Opinions

    @Adolf Hamster To be honest if it wasn't for looking into the WE L85 then I'd probably just replace my AK's with a single GHK GBBR and keep the rest of my NATO stuff as AEG's. @EDcase Based on your experiences then would you be of the inclination to recommend sticking with AEG's for regular...

    We GBBR Opinions

    So over the last few months I've been considering picking up another L85. Originally I was considering just grabbing another AEG (preferably an L85A1) and throwing a SUSAT on it, idea being that it would serve me for the mid 80's through to late 90's. More recently I've been toying with the...

    Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)

    Unfortunately product availability in the UK is hit and miss at the best of times. Let alone inflated prices for many products.

    Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)

    Admittedly there are various bits I'm looking at ordering (a full new set of magazines being one) but given all the Brexit issues I guess I'll be waiting for it all to settle down a bit more. Fingers crossed people get their stuff ASAP.

    My Apoc Build

     Admittedly it has crossed my mind. Perhaps if I replace my ICS with a WE Apache then I can mess up the ICS to reflect a post-apoc setting/feel although I also appreciate arguments where people have suggested that if you had any knowledge you'd do everything you could to protect and preserve the...

    My Apoc Build

    I keep toying with the idea of putting together a rifle with post apocalyptic styling (or cyberpunk perhaps) but unfortunately the only L1A1/FN FAL I'm aware of is the abomination from Ares. Admittedly I'd probably be better off with something significantly shorter but I was trying to consider...

    Might have to check these out myself, would save me swapping optics and having to re-zero all the time.

    So - Does This Count as a RIF? Trigger Warning: Contains Speedsoft

    Makes me think of a ray gun from an old sci-fi film.

    12 Year Old Brummy Spawn Decides to Show Off Imitation Pistol at Local Park

    I think it's one of those instances where we simply lack a full picture. There's nothing to say that the kid didn't grab it from a family members kit without said family member knowing. There's also the all too common scenario of it being repainted or it could be the result of trading with...
