    It'll be interesting then. I do have a genuine 'large' fabric mag too . I'll have a play about and see what'll fit.

    88 gram one would certainly be very tight. 33g might make more sense, assuming the thread size is the same .

    Those 88g CO2 canisters are going to be a tight fit in the box mag I think, they are mahoosive !

    As a follow up to this. On my AEG 249 I run a box mag which uses the classic army internals in the original box. The ca internals are way superior , but the fitting on top of the mag won't fit the bracket on the gun.

    ARES SUSAT Sight

    Never used the Ares one so don't know if it can be made to go lower once you run out of adjuster.

    There should be an adjuster under the eye piece, knurled disk looking thing. That's your elevation adjuster.

    Box mag has arrived just now. Bizzarley no request for duty, so happy days.  Off to order CO2 capsules now ! I've ordered a pack of 10 from amazon, only a couple of £ more than the ones someone linked too, but free delivery

    Chronos vs shot-to-shot consistency

    307 fps on .28 is about 1.2j so still inside legal limit. Sporadic air seal change is a possibility, a BB may be fractionally different in size for example , changing how it behaves in the hop rubber. Are you holding the muzzle in exactly the same position relatice to the chrono every time ? I...

    Gamed mine today , on green gas obviuosly , God they are just so much fun !  Got some cracking kills with it at good range. The gas block issue is definitly resolved with the new mag catch, not a single issue since I fitted it.

    Very nice ! the para stock is well worthwhile. Thoughts on the CO2 mag ? Mine is showing as cleared, although I've still not had confirmation on if there is duty to pay or not . I'm sure I'll get a bill next week .

    After an email today saying 'we need your rif decleration ' (seriously) which usefully included a telephone number, I spent half an hour on the phone to a helpfull chap in the apropriate department.  Emailed him the decleration direct. I did your thing of filling it out , photoing it and sending...

    They asked me to marshal

    I've done it a few times and run some themed days. Marshalls deserve a bloody medal !  As a group airsofters have the attention span and memory retention of an average 1 year old , and organising them is like hearding cats. Playing is much more fun

    I managed to open the decleration, and filled it in on my phone then sent it back. I like your idea of completing a hard copy and photographing that though. Think I'll see if anywhere in town can print me one tomorrow and do that too.  Still cant work out if they actually want money off me or not !

    Well now I've had an email which seems to suggest there is an invoice to pay (import duties i assume , which fair enough) but no amount given and no link to actually pay it.  Also a RIF decleration, again no instruction on what to do with it once completed .  I've completed the parts that seem...

    Mine is still showing as at Donnington, despite an email overnight from ups saying delivery today .  Various messages via email and messenger to ups have them saying WGC need to supply additional doccumentaion , and messages to WGC have them saying 'contact ups and wait for delivery'  Hopefully...

    unfortunatly it happens more often than not when ups are involved.  A mate ordered an AK last year, got notification from ups that it had been delivered and signed for , this despite his partner being at home and having seen no sign of them. Once he eventually managed to get hold of someone it...

    Mag still sat at Castle Donnington. 20 minutes on the phone this morning finally got me talking a person in some call centre somewhere. Aparantly there is outstanding customs paperwork, Since I've had bits from WGC before with no issues I'm convinced this is the usual 'merican carrier with...

    Aaand now thay have decided to deliver it tomorrow, of course no idea of an actual time slot so I can arrange for someone to be in. ups are a total shower of shit I'm staggered that such an unprofessional company is still in business. And their virtual assistant doesn't understand the phrase...
