    Gel blaster RIFs - what's up with those?

    Prompted by the lad asking about how to get an airsoft gat for playing in a field, I was going to suggest gel blasters as I'd seen dayglo / stickerbomb ones for sale. But, well, well, well, looks like they've gone full RIF. For example https://gelweapons.co.uk/collections/gel-blasters/ You...

    Biohazard CQB site, featuring some weirdo dressed as a pretend space soldier

    Bit cringe, mate, you should pretend to be a real soldier, not a pretend one.

    Rebel brand / BZ Tactical BBs jamming?

    Anecdote, not evidence, but I switched to a bottle of "Rebel" brand 0.28g BBs (BZ Tactical) last game day, and subsequently experienced... this... To snap one piston, Mister Borg, may be regarded as misfortune.  To snap two looks like shenanigans. On disassembly, one barrel definitely had a...

    Cop uses bang rule on Florida Man

    And I'm not even joking.  "POW POW POW". Age verification required to see if Florida Man called the hit or not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHOYdRu5n7Q (I assume this is a training reflex from calling "shots" from a dayglo mock-Glock, but it would be hilarious if he's a CQB airsofter)

    Obliterated - hey, they DO still make them like this!

    Obliterated, available on Netflix. The premise: a super-special-spy-forces team catches a badman with a suitcase nuke in Las Vegas, goes partying to celebrate, then are suddenly called back on duty when it turns out the real snuke is still out there. The execution: balls-and-cocks-and-boobs to...

    CSI XR-5 futuregun AEG

    http://www.csiairsoft.com.tw/xr-5.html What we have here are some very basic V2/M4 components inside a chonky plastic futuregun shell that comes in 8 variants (2 each of stock, lower handguard, and front end) and a variety of colours - although you'll be hard pressed to find any still in...

    "Water pistols" next on the naughty list?

    tl;dr summary - Hackney, 13 year old with a blue-and-white (or pink-and-white) water pistolgets rammed off his bike and arrested at gunpoint, allegedly. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-67148208 While I suspect there's a bit more to it than that, it's a salient reminder that...

    Looking for a "lasgun" style flash hider

    I'm minded to put together an CSI XR-5 based lasgun (yes, I know about the plastic bushings) and treat myself to an actual bought-thing flash hider if I can find one. I'm looking for something like this in standard 14mm CCW. I have a vague recollection of a UK 3D printer business turning...

    RRR is grrreat

    On Netflix, as almost recommended by The Critical Drinker, and damn, dear viewer, he wasn't wrong.  I've linked his review below which covers it well - I'd recommend it as a listen (until you're convinced either way) without necessarily watching as it spoilers some of the plot and action.  Or if...

    No problem with Nobody until this non sense

    Voiceover: "A suppressed H&K USP forty-five". Still worth a watch, despite that moment of...

    Silverback MDR-X tl;dw version - let some other mug buy these bin-fire versions until they fix it

    A tale of 2 videos: 1. You'll drop the trigger bar in the mud, then set it on fire while changing the battery.

    Well, well, well, firearms CAN be imitation firearms

    Welshplod have done this firearm-airgun armed nutter for an imitation firearms offence.  https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/neighbour-bangs-grandmothers-door-air-25182750 It's a very curious charge, since either FA S16A (or S19) cover firearms (which airguns are) or imitation firearms...

    Thai gambling spambot

    Just wondering if there's anything that can be done about the spambot that's obsessed with creating new johnnyufafrN+1 accounts, reposting old content, and adding the exact same link to https://electroambientspace.com/how-to-play-slotxo/ every time. It feels like there should be a...

    Reacher and The Terminal List both recommended on Amazon

    There's a bit of a theme developing here. If you want some solid, straightforward toxic masculinity not dripping with CURRENT_YEAR tropes, then Amazon seems like the place to be. Reacher: Sherlock Holmes crossed with the Punisher.  Big burly bloke puzzles out a crime, and anyone who fucks...

    New York City criminalises gel blasters, but haven't finished the thought

    Via their Failbook account.  Their Supreme Court's ruling on constitutional carry seems to have sent NYPD deranged. Off topic because airsoft has apparently already long since fallen foul of their Antipodean antipathy to assault-style toys.  I guess they already class those as air rifles...

    Short stroking the sector gear without removing piston teeth or fitting a heavier spring

    Before anyone goes all Reddit Skylaar, here's what I'm starting with: an MP5K with a 110mm-ish barrel, a cheap plastic rack with (I think) one metal tooth at the end, and a 3/4 cylinder which is presumably significantly over-volumed and producing a significant amount of smack and crack...

    Just for larks, how would you go about adding a fixed hop?

    The barrel is intact with no window.  It moves back and forth, so anything TDCish is out.  Significant parts are a circlip against which the spring pushes, the sleeve / nozzle on the right hand side here which nestles into the (revolver) cylinder, and a keying ridge on top.  I can't actually see...

    HFC HG-132 gas revolver 4" barrel

    One of these fellows.  I have no idea about pistols, I think it's some sort of Colt Python .357" Magnum PI inspired thing.  I bought it because, well, I don't have a revolver, and I might want to use it in Very Hard Mode in Very CQB. Out of the box: Quality is mixed. The outer barrel is...

    Heroshark mesh dimensions?

    I have a hankering to tinker with some mesh based eyepro projects and I know @herosharkis always busy, so I was wondering if anyone knows the dimensions of the perforated mesh used in his fine eyewear.  No, I'm not looking to go into competition, just try out some ideas myself. I've previously...

    The Silverback TAC-41 challenge: is it a YouTube grade sniper out of the box?

    With the caveat that it'll need a spring to get it up from about 1.8J to your site limit, my tl;dr answer is: This is based on 1 day's play, versus a Well MB-03 with some upgrades that I've been messing around with on and off. Pros: A numbered and indexed clicky TDC hop. All airsoft snipers...
