    Airsoft Argument

    PLOT TWIST Number 2 - you were not a player at all but a marshal! ?

    Airsoft Argument

    I would've taken the shot. Bang or no-bang rules, if I was mega close to someone, like 1-2 metres, then I would use the bang call simply because I wouldn't enjoy being hit that close either. (this is non-cqb) Whether or not they choose to accept it is another matter. At a pistol game I was in...

    Joule Creep

    That is a fantastic example, ouch 3.23j is going to hurt! Especially those that like to stretch the distance of MED - but lets not go down that rabbit hole.

    Joule Creep

    I will certainly mention it to the organisers if it happens again, it could've simply been a one-off. We were being outranged quite a lot, and yes I accept there are many things that can affect range, but it does make you think if some are stretching the rules a little.

    Joule Creep

    I was recently at a very popular site - I won't say which one in case it was just a mistake - but when chronoing the marshal did not ask me what weight of BB I was using.  Normally I chrono with 0.2g and I use 0.25g because I always thought this was the correct way, and on this instance I had...

    Joule Creep

    Hey guys This is an interesting discussion - so from what I can see, this is one example I know: Urban Assault has a strict 400FPS 0.2g limit on Snipers - it's partially CQB and if you are sticking a sniper out of a ground floor window and cap someone in the side of the head.. ouch. So that...

    40 Mike Gas Shell - 150 BB's in 0.3sec

    Yep. "Safe zone" - loads it while in the middle of group, shoots it - camera swings round and a player is not wearing his eye pro. First few seconds.

    40 Mike Gas Shell - 150 BB's in 0.3sec

    Yes and within the first few seconds he "demonstrates" it in the safe zone where some people aren't wearing eye protection.

    I'm curious to know that if you hadn't been chasing them immediately, would the order even have been picked up and shipped by now? Avoiding at all costs from now on

    Noob question about maintaining AEG

    Amen to this, opening the gearbox on an AEG is like a spring loaded bear trap in reverse.

    LiPo battery without plastic casing

    Yeah like others have said, ditch it mate - not worth the risk. A new lipo, fully intact, is cheap enough.

    Noob question about maintaining AEG

    AEGs don't take a huge amount of maintenance - cleaning the barrel is a must, so use that cleaning rod, some alcohol and keep it nice and clear. Make sure your mags stay clean, you don't want dirt getting into your hop up - I had some mags get full of dust one weekend and stripped and fully...

    No word of a lie, I've seen this done - in university we had some cheapo BB guns (shooting each other, what else) they were springers with 0.12 yellow BBs. I had an M16, a mate had an SA-80. We were sat watching TV and there was a big bluebottle buzzing around which landed high up on the window...

    Not a bad idea at all - I'll be the one playing with a scalpel blade cutting up a small bit of rubber - first aid kit on standby! ?

    I'm also trying this over the weekend for the first time too - I'm using a madbull hop unit and I 60 degree Shark hop bucking. I'm going to do the DIY approach of using a rubber eraser as a hop nub and see how I get on. We should compare notes ?

    Gunfire (Poland) / gun-fire.co.uk

    Seen this before - we work on ecommerce sites and it's ghost stock so it could be with a supplier - but then the supplier could be out of stock and they don't know. Bit of a trick to ensure they always look like they have stock.  Aim to avoid buying if stock quantity is 1 - or contact the...

    Sniping BB Weights

    Not a lot to add here but another vote for Geoffs. Before our Striker ripped apart it's stock cylinder, 0.36 Geoffs were amazing to use.

    Gunfire (Poland) / gun-fire.co.uk

    Love that ?  And after they had their big "Back in the game" sale - won't be chancing it with these guys again, no matter how cheap their deals are.

    Recommend a tech sub section?

    All for this, but yes if it's a mate who's trying to help for a crate of beer or bottle of BBs - don't go slating him on a forum if his fix doesn't go according to plan ? I'm just covering myself as I'm fixing a team mates ICS right now!
