    airsoft things you don't understand

    so premise of this is what things in airsoft do you not "get", and why? i'll start off with a couple- patches- i really don't get it, especially people who seem to collect them and get properly excited when they see a new patch. doubly so when you see people using the patches you get with bits...

    A treatise on the effects of compulsive addictive behaviors over an extended period of time

    Ok, so clickbait title aside this is actually an appraisals thread. And sorry in advance @PopRocket123 but in my defence I did warn you in the dragonuv ad :P What we have here is what happens when you combine a tendency towards financial insensibility with an addiction to possibly pointless...

    mack's dodging again.....

    evening all. figured i'd throw a quick appraisals thread out see if i'm in the right ballpark: first up we have ourselves a WE GBB SVD. she's had the maple leaf barrel/hop treatment in the name of lobbing .48's and an npas, otherwise pretty much stock with a couple of tweaks mostly in the...

    Conspiracy Theory

    i'm starting to wonder if we have a double agent on this board. might be going crazy, but it seems ever since we regained @Rogerborg we seem to have lost @Sitting Duck are they in fact the same person? maybe split personalities?

    Guns You Think Are Good, but You Hate Them Anyway.

    inspired by some recent random chat about the scorpion evo figured it might be a fun idea to find out how many folks have irrational hatred for guns (or aspects of them). so what guns do you think are good (either real or airsoft), but you hate them anyway? for me it's glocks, i get that both...

    Cap and Ball

    figured it might be worth a quick shout on here see if anyone has any useful information. want to get a present for a mate of mine, he's a big fan of old west gear and specifically relevant he quite likes the old open-topped colt navy patterns. having a scout round seems to be denix does a...

    Airsoft Governing Bodies

    somewhat topically relevant given todays news with regards to returning after lockdown. figured it might be worth discussing what our thoughts are in general when it comes to the subject of a governing body for airsoft, what options are out there, what we think we'd like to see it become, etc...

    The Cursed Airsoft Guns Thread, or 'My Eyes, the Goggles do Nothing'

    inspired by this thread: figured we could have a thread to take a long hard look at some of the more *ahem* questionable gun design choices out there in the hope of helping us appreciate in these troubled times that things could always be worse....... so i'll start off with a couple: the...

    Perun Nozz-X

    http://perunairsoft.pl/products/nozz-x/ was debating wether or not to sell my soul to Gate and finally start running a titan in my main ak and whilst looking to see if perun offered anything in v3 stumbled upon this. seems like an interesting concept, although i do worry if it would suffer...

    All Hail God-king of Elbonia

    so lockdown has spawned some pretty serious threads so maybe we should balance it out with something totally stupid. so the king is dead, long live the king- you. you are now the god-king of elbonia, your wish is your people's command. mud exports are proving profitable and your resources are...

    Nachtvizier- Ich Will

    Kinda fitting this gets posted in the middle of the night. Needless to say this is what happens when you're bored on a lockdown new years night watching random airsoft videos. Basically i'm thinking maybe i should set myself a goal for 2021 of getting myself some proper night vision. I've had...

    Call Your Hits, or a Cautionary Tale of Marksmanship

    this probably isn't going to come as a great revelation to most  but i figured it's an interesting story that maybe merits use as a means of reminding people about the greatest of airsoft sins- the non hit taker. so to preface this we all know the cry, "call yer [redacted] hits you [redacted]"...

    Bolt Aksu

    so, help me decide. i'm thinking i regret selling my e&l aksu, even if it was the weird romanian one, and i think i need another in my life. normally my go to would be straight up e&l as i know what i'm getting, but having bumped into a Bolt last shoot before lockdown i must admit i...

    Guns That Aren't as Popular as They Should Be....

    figured this might be a fun little topic to entertain us while we're sitting wishing we could go shooting. we're all aware of guns that are popular for various reasons, and we're all aware of guns that are unpopular due to looks, rarity, proprietary parts or poor performance/bad manufacturers...

    Mag Retention- the Soldiers Perspective

    figured this probably counts as off topic. reckon we've got a few members on here who've served their country and maybe even spent some time on a 2-way range. i'm kinda curious what the experience of things like magazine retention, number of rounds carried etc is. we're quite used to...

    Some Eclectic M4 Bits

    as usual, trying to stay off macks :P if we start off weird lets go with this heresy: a real carbon fibre free-float handguard, it's too narrow to run a conventional gas block/gas tube but very sturdy and lightweight. hand-made so i don't really have anything to compare it to for the...

    Hamster Buys an Lct, and Isn't Entirely Impressed……

    So I’m normally not the biggest fan of “out of the box” style reviews especially on youtube where the focus seems to be spending 80% of the time discussing how ambidextrous an m4 is followed by some shooting on a 10m range and declaring it to be the greatest thing ever. Indeed I have another...

    Hamster Contemplates Selling All the Stuff

    Still debating wether or not this is a good idea but I’m starting to think maybe fully changing up my arsenal might be refreshing. So first up we have a g&g f2000, my first love. She’s had a few years good service and some trials and tribulations but currently the build is pretty nice...

    Hamster Has a Clearout, and Doesn't Want to End up on Macks….

    So I’ve decided to have a bit of a clearout, I normally have a policy of not selling gats but tbh I’ve reached the point where I’m only fielding a couple of guns so not much point keeping everything. First up is a boneyard vsr clone, cost me £20 for the bare gun deactivated and with a few...

    The Cardinal Airsoft Sin....

    yes i'm that bored...... so i'm wondering what folk reckon is the worst sin for airsoft? we're all familiar with the various creative game mechanics people intentionally or unintentionally employ but which one gets you the most? for me it's the blatant non-hit takers, which needs some...
