    Hi :) Yes i've been, both before and after they opened their SpeedSoft arena. I'll happily admit that it used to be better beforehand and the reduced space for the regular airsoft walk-ons has made it an overall worse experience however it is the only indoors CQB site in the local area. Be...

    Hello also from the North East. Where are you booked onto? Lots of great sites around the area :)

    Budget Nov AFU clone

    Noise is the biggest turn off for me - I may take a punt on payday. For reference; my Exfog is in a pouch, velcro'd to my helmet, and my hearing protection picks up a noticeable constant vibration/low humming noise from the fan running. I can't imagine running anything that's much louder than...

    Quote opinion

    Try getting in touch with TheCageAirsoft. They'll let you post in your RIF and their prices are good when I used them last in 2023 - they only charged me £67 labour for what amounted to a complete overhaul of my stock MP5 - I provided the majority of parts required. Nothing wrong with...

    Gear

    For a AEG, do a lot of research before buying. You can pick up a RIF that will last you for years. For gear, go cheap (or surplus) at first and find out what does and doesn't work for you (what you need more of and what you need less of) and from here you can work out what you'd like to run...

    Anyone regretted moving to a GBBR?

    I'd say the main 'gatekeeping' factor for people moving into any kind of 'primary' GBB RIF is the cost of magazines. Most M4 gas mags are ~£50 per mag and some specialised mags like the MP7 can be listed for £70+ at UK retailers which can scare off a lot of people from going to gas (yes I know...

    2x optic or red dot for outdoor airsoft?

    For CQB, I stick to 1x optics that I can comfortably run with both eyes open - I've used XPS3, EXPS3 and 552 holo replicas all from different brands in totally different price brackets. When outdoors, I started to attach a 3x magnifier but found it pointless in most situations unless spotting at...

    Any battle belt converts out there who have ditched the vest/plate carrier?

    Depends on where i'm playing and, sometimes, the RIF i'm using. I've found that i'm much more comfortable with a belt & yoke setup when playing outdoors as it lets me get flatter while not obscuring magazines for a reload but dislike the extra width when playing indoors CQB so I run a...

    Sniper backup???

    Might as well go with TM tbh. You know they're going to work and you get a good foam filled suppressor included with it. I've read that the ASG magazines are the best of the lot however I would definitely suggest getting 'low profile' magazine followers as this allows and extra 4-8 BBs per...

    What have you just 3d printed (for airsoft)

    Anyone able to test print some Kar98K shells for me from this STL? Bonus points if the person printing it can make sure it'll accept the o-rings as they're required for a useable FPS.

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Taken from: https://snipermechanics.com/tanaka-m700-old-faithful/ "You’ll often hear of people saying PCS or pre ban, this essentially means rifles that come with a bolt which allows for quick FPS/Air volume adjustment. Later rifles were changed due to local laws and come with a standard bolt."

    Sniper backup???

    A MP7 holster does exist.

    Sniper backup???

    Polenar Tactical also have been showing a belt/QLS mounted MP5 holster if anyone's interested. It's kinda goofy but I like it.

    Sniper backup???

    TM Mk23. There's a reason so many people suggest this one. Your MED with a sniper is 30m so you really only need something effective within the 0-30m range which is almost any pistol in airsoft.  I personally use one just because of the range, accuracy and consistency it gets. With a Hadron...

    Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

    Surprised it hasn't been taken down by the new rules in classifieds... yet. I wonder what what price it will reappear at. Also wondering if "dec 24" is a sufficient date as per requirements.

    You need to go here -> https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/ Then post an ad. You got the part about including a piece of paper with your username and the date but got the wrong section.

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Do you get much co-witness with the ACOG and A2 front post? What happened to that "handguard AEG store" on Aliexpress? They used to have lots of items with line-drawings of the handguards plus pictured reviews but now there's almost nothing. Did it get purged? Any other places to browse...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Picked up a boneyard WE GBBR for something to tinker with over the winter... only to find it wasn't actually broken unless i'm yet to stumble over the real issue. I was told that the nozzle return spring was broke and there 'may be more wrong with it'. The mag has a tiny tiny tiny leak but that...

    Wolverine Havoc - HPA 'shotgun'

    And there's me thinking that a pump action that could throw 6 BBs was more than enough but these guys thought it was a good idea to make it semi-auto with almost no delay between shots? Yea, na. That's actually insane. The accuracy in that video is strange though because there's some shots...

    WE Glock 17 Gen 4 upgrades

    As @Nick G has said, you can't go wrong with the bundles on MilSpec. I used the ML hop unit and I-key in mine but I used a Flamingo 60 degree hop rubber rather than the included one. For ~£50 it's a good deal tbh. Always ran mine on .28s and it was perfect at my CQB site.
