    Yeah I’m not planning on being team’s lighthouse.  Messing about at home, I have noticed this is a thing. I’ll play around abit.

    Flashlights...such a thing as too bright?

    It’s a half decent torch so I’d imagine it does what it says on the tin. I couldn’t see for **** after accidentally shining it in my own face, if that counts for anything haha. You make a good point about the strobe function though. I might just use the stable light and go from there.

    Flashlights...such a thing as too bright?

    Not sure if this one for GD or not, because it’s more about etiquette rather than suggestions or feedback on gear. I’ve recently purchased a flashlight, because the CQB site I play at warrants one at times, and others have used them with great success. The one purchased has variable output...

    Cutting wire to remove buffer tube.

    I cant see any exposed connector showing to be honest, but I may just cut the shrink tube off and get some new shrink tube just to neaten it up. Thanks again guys.

    Cutting wire to remove buffer tube.

    Spot on SD, thank you. Didn’t spot the 2.8mm connectors under the shrink tube the other day. Sliced the shrink tube to loosen the connectors; I’ll get some insulation tape tomorrow just to be ultra sure nothing shorts out accidentally.  New sling attachment in place now. ?

    Cutting wire to remove buffer tube.

    This seems like a daft question, but I want to replace my sling point on my AEG (Raider 2.0), but to remove the buffer tube, I need to cut the fuse off, because it won’t pass through the hole at the bottom of the  buffer tube. Am I good to just re-solder the wires back together, or am I better...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    TM Hi-Capa 5.1, another mag, a holster and some pistol mag pouches. My first sidearm. Have had my eye on one for ages...but after a lad on Saturday let me fire his mid-game, the timescale got moved forward a bit haha. Any advice on best gas to use? Haven’t owned a GBB before.

    CQB Pain

    My first ever game was in a small CQB site. I wore a pair of cargo trousers and a causal polo shirt. Had a few beebs break the skin on my forearms, but that doesn’t actually hurt. It’s once the polo shirt became sweaty and clung to me that body shots started to become uncomfortable. Only one...

    Defcon Airsoft

    I ordered a G&G Raider 2.0 from them on Tuesday.  AEG arrives Thursday...but it’s two-tone! Doh! I ring them up, ask if there’s any issues with my defence or what not, but the guy confirms it’s a genuine mistake. I send them a photo of the invoice so they can look at who checked off the...

    6yr old killed by "pellet gun"

    Sounds like a tragic accident. Possibly someone leaving an air pistol loaded and cocked?

    Quick Questions & Simple Answers.

    Is there a mobile friendly gun creator/builder out there? Tried using Puffin for Flash support on iOS but it’s tedious/unusable (Pimp My Gun, which hadn’t been updated since 2011 I think?)

    Buying in the UK

    Happens in more than just Airsoft. I bought some fishing reels from Germany that were nearly half-price compared to what they were over here.  I’m new to this sport, but I don’t see a huge UK retailer dominating the market in this industry,  IE no one has the buying power to push down prices...

    Theoretical Question about a legal defence

    Oh it definitely seems badly written, but the fact that it relies on belief is the funny bit. Not complaining because it obviously allows people to enjoy this sport, but it is interesting.  Thank you you for the clarification!

    Theoretical Question about a legal defence

    Hence why I see a lot of ifs and maybes with this subject, because no-ones actually been charged with any offense relating to this and Airsoft RIF’s?  It’s like there’s a line somewhere, but no one is quite sure where it is. Something like UKARA is sensible enough, but outside of that there...

    Theoretical Question about a legal defence

    Just to jump in with a question from a newbie, but a scenario that could possibly occur within the OP’s example. What if a site has a shop, and a newcomer plays one game, buys a membership to the site, but doesn’t fulfill the UKARA criteria, and is sold a RIF?  A see a lot of sites near me...

    Quick Questions & Simple Answers.

    Yeah there hasn’t been a question I’ve had I’ve not been able to find an answer to, especially since browsing here. YouTube has been great too. The biggest challenge I’m facing is reigning in my own impatience and magpie-like love of shiny things. I think I’ve got an entire kit list sorted out...
