    springer

    £30 but i cant have it until a fortnight today when i get my UKARA defence. i didnt buy it as a serious weapon since i will be looking for an AEG rifle as a main weapon. i bought it as a back up/novelty but there may be upgrades available. i havent looked at spring before so i know literally...

    Favourite War Movie Theme

    i have watched Band of Brothers twice since i stumbled across it a few months ago. I love watching anything about WW2 but Pacific isn't as addictive. I think i have managed about half way and that's over time. I watched disc after disc of Band of Brothers. another series i got hooked on was...

    Whats the best way to stop your goggles from Fogging?

    i had to drop out of a game today due to fogging. i literally couldnt see a team mate 5 feet away from me so i borrowed a set of mesh goggles to try on the next game. i wasnt comfortable with them for reasons already stated in this thread plus visibility is seriously reduced compared to the wide...

    "Retro" Gaming 1995-2001

    i loved the first medal of honors and do have them but GTA 5 is still the only game i play just now. they are hardly retro games by the way. Not compared to things like paperboy, bomberman, street fighter, joust, manic miner and those games. Well before consoles came out. Amiga, atari...

    Velcro nameplates

    i wont be putting anything on any equipment that i get but i did sew onto my shirt on Wednesday and the smock will be the same when it arrives. I could see the reason if you joined more than one team but i don't know if that happens

    new to airsoft

    thanks mate. i will do. mainly about the weapons now since i really dont understand how they feed the BBs from the mag to chamber then propel them across that kind of distance. real guns i understand, these things are totally different though

    safety kit. what to look for?

    i went with the revision goggles and i have received them. i have clear, smoked and yellow lenses but i cant see how to swap them? the smoked came fitted and the elastic strap is easy to remove but the lens appears to have a light glue round the edges which i am reluctant to prise out. any ideas?

    UKARA and paint questions

    does this mean it only applies to commercial sales and not private? do the site owners ask for UKARA defence to allow RIFs?

    a word of warning - army uniform

    I had a chat with a mate last night about the 95 kit i bought. Not my first choice but i couldn't find any of the older DPM so i went with what i know. Its thin material but fairly durable. The latest kit is not! He wore his stable belt and ripped 3 belt loops off when he removed the belt. He...

    British Army Pro Boot Review

    i went for a pair of grade 2 desert magnums which have also supposedly been used in Afghanistan. I haven't worn them yet but i did try 1 for size and it was very comfortable. £19.99 if i remember correctly and they were bought specifically for airsoft. I think they will serve me very well

    New Airsofter Stupid Questions

    that looks ideal. even a built in pistol pouch on it and it looks dirt cheap for what you get. it looks like the belt is very similiar to 95 pattern webbing so extra pouches (ammo pouches) may be compatible. nice suggestion B)

    British Army Pro Boot Review

    you really cant go wrong with army issue boots. they want to running in streams, climbing over assault courses, running over uneven terrain and still in good enough condition to stamp your feet on parade and make a loud enough noise to give the sergeant major an erection that will keep his wife...

    safety kit. what to look for?

    i am very tempted to go with the last link i posted. having read some posts on this forum regarding eye protection and various opinions, i think the more industrial design which does not seal against the face is out of the equation. lenses or mesh? lenses seem to be safer but can fog up so anti...
