    Who uses propane

    Embrace the tactical odour I use an oil pump kit rather than using silicone drops. Google Airsoft Innovations oil pump kit. It's a little tube that lets you dose entire bottles at once similar to green gas. And when you buy a bottle from Amazon and get two delivered by mistake, you can laugh...

    Torso protection

    Or if you're really soft, a full EOD suit might do the trick

    Gas Reliability

    First gun should be an AEG I think. If you are going to join us on the dark side, you can't go wrong with a GHK G5. Mine worked fine last winter when it was 2 degrees with snow on the ground. A couple of mates have 416s and my brother has a WE scar (hasn't had it long enough to recommend or...

    Well l96 Problems

    I had the issue with the BB not entering the chamber properly, getting stuck between the hop chamber and the cylinder head, preventing the bolt closing. I found that the follower of the magazine was the wrong way round, and I had to open the magazine, push the pin out of the follower assembly...

    Proposed uk laws

    This is an example of law-making going right, a sensible approach, consulting the group's to be affected, and making clear, sensible suggestions far from knee-jerk, "ban all toy guns" reactions to media stories. As its suggested there, airsoft would hardly be affected at all, perhaps we would...

    Selling/Sending Blank Fire caps

    Having thought about it, I wonder if you can buy .50 blanks anywhere... Do you think postman pat would mind carrying them in his satchel?

    Selling/Sending Blank Fire caps

    Legally, anyone can own or buy blanks up to half an inch calibre, so that won't be an issue for the 9mms (not sure where 12ga blanks come in though). As for postage, it depends on the carrier. Royal mail/parcelforce probably won't touch them as they class as explosives or ammunition, so have a...

    Gaming in 2016

    We had a similar thread for 2015. So here we go: what are you guys looking forward to in the year to come? For me, it has to be the Oculus Rift. My new PC was built with that in mind and I can't wait to jump in the rift with Elite Dangerous and DCS, maybe I'm just gonna be a VR fanboy, but I'm...

    G17 GBB Feeding Problem

    Make sure it's some airsoft lubricant, if its 100% silicone oil then you're laughing. Everyone reccomends different brands but they all do the same job. There are two important things to lube: take the slide off and put a little bit on the rails that the slide moves along, then put the slide...

    Using Arma 3 for Milsim Training

    I knew a Semin-profrsaional snooker player at university who could kick out arses without giving us more than one or two shots in the game. He would disagree

    Tokyo Marui Glock 26 problem

    Have you lubed up the hammer mechanism? Short of taking it apart and putting it together (fiddly to say the least for most gbbs) it might be the only thing to do Edit, just read the post above properly. Maybe an internal lube could help. Otherwise, how does the slide feel moving back, is it...

    Using Arma 3 for Milsim Training

    Someone has more money than sense :P I can get 60fps most of the time, but it takes an 800 quid pc and a good server in most cases I guess it can be used quite well, depending on the quality of the "instructors" I guess, especially with a few mods

    Eye protection

    If it is rated, then it will have a 166f stamp somewhere on the product Bear in mind 166f is technically not enough for airsoft, as a 350fps 0.2g BB has more energy than the test. 166b (available only to goggles) is plenty however

    What's the worse stupidity

    Another from me (and a mate) At anzio, tasked with retrieving an objective we found it on enemy hands. A group of 4-5 peeps were walking down a road in the open. Me and my mate were oitnumbered big time, but we had friendlies catching up to us, so we told them to keep the enemies busy whilst we...

    What's the worse stupidity

    Everyone has seen someone shift their eye pro to where it's useless, even during the safety brief after having just mentioned it. Myself- throwing a mk5, as I drew it back ready to throw I pointed the lot fuse at my neck and gave myself a nice (but thankfully not damaging) burn. Myself-...

    First Side Arm Advice

    I don't know about those particular guns, but here's what I know: TM are the daddy of airsoft, many manufacturers actually clone what TM design because of its good design, making them the standard for others to meet. To this end, chances are, those guns are TM clones, and TM mags should fit...

    Marui HiCapa 5.1 magazine problem???

    I lost an o ring from one of my fill valves, I even found it in my dump pouch and threw it away before I realised where it came from. Mag still fills and holds gas, it's just a bit louder when I'm filling it

    Technical Help

    If you're ever preparing to do something like this, you should be prepared to modify parts, if you don't already have a dremel and some simple tools to make things fit where they don't want to, you ought to get one. I'd personally just buy an AEG and play with it later. I have no idea how easy...

    POSSIBLE RIF BAN

    When the crazy people trade in their AKs and suicide vests for airsoft guns and BFGs, then its justified. Until then, some politicians need to get a grip and start applying common sense and reason to their work
