    What have you made?

    Well one of the reasons I got my recent Tanaka was that is had a Spartan hop but for some reason, the standard nozzle. This meant it didn’t seal well with the Spartan hop, with inconsistent fps. Long out of production, someone sent me the correct length of the Spartan unit. Measured the Tanaka...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Yeah that needs stripping back and fixing eh! There’s some other little bits and pieces that need sorting - a random variety of nuts/bolts has been collected over the last 20 odd years.    I’ll pick up a couple of long mags for it but the plan is to just leave it on propane and save it for...

    There’s a thumbwheel in the bolt to adjust the power (it’s secured with a grub screw). Whizzed out to 100% with high pressure gas and they’ll do big numbers.

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Technically, I've wanted a Tanaka for about 15 years. When I first started playing airsoft, in my eyes at least a Tanaka rifle was the bee-knees. They were rare, a weird choice, moderately expensive and also had this allure of some existing 'pre-ban'. Not Asahi M40 shell-ejecting rare, but still...

    Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

    I have an opposing theory: it’s not mud, it’s vomit.    They went to a game, mentally added up how much they’d spent on building a toy gun only to be shot by a 14-year-old with a rental, heaved then left and sold up out of embarrassment.

    I was just about to post that one. The service cost is basically sunk, be lucky to get £1k for the full package but more likely £800.

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    Echo everything @Colin Allen said - even the bit when he shot me in the ear ?. You're right though, a covered safezone would have made a world of difference today. Morning game was really roving, all over the site and some good firefights. Like Colin says, no idea who won but I really didn't...

    I'll be in OD trousers with a black waterproof. (only one I have I don't mind getting muddy). Giant yellow North Face kitbag. DPM chest rig & Systema L119A1 if it works, Multicam chest rig & AK-104 if it doesn't. Oh and my actual name is Jordan.

    I’ve got the same set up. Tiny bit of shadow in the bottom half of the image if you really look for it, but doesn’t affect use one bit. Don’t notice it at all when playing.

    Battle Lakes meet up 7/12/24

    Oh cripes, having looked at the weather I think you’ll need a rubber knife to go with your rubber suit if you want to hit anything ?

    Gate Aster V3 - Misfeeds

    That will be your active braking heating the motor up. What happens if you just turn it off? Also could it be cycling too fast for the tappet plate? Do you need a delayer chip perhaps?

    Wolverine Havoc - HPA 'shotgun'

    Had a quick search and couldn't see any discussion of this. Wolverine have now announced their new 'Havoc' engine, which is their answer to a HPA shotgun engine. Instead of multiple barrels, it effectively has a whacky hop chamber that holds eight BBs ready to go. When you pull the trigger, it...

    Really? I just whacked in a 3kg 60cm for a 48hr signed for delivery insured to £350 into the PF quote website and it's quoted me £20.45... Maybe you guys are seeing something I'm not.

    Is it? We were lambasting that other fella for losing a RIF through the post but I'd wager shipping something this size, with appropriate insurance, will run you £20 from plenty of couriers.
