    Safety pin for TAC 41 magazine

    As probably anyone with a TAC 41 will have experienced the magazine of the TAC 41 likes to spill its content too easily, the slightest touch on the release tab and all the bbs are on the ground or in the pouch. As the mag is behaving like a life granate I thought I treat it like one and add a...

    ExFog vs Novritsch Antifog 2nd Gen from someone who has both

    My son has been using ExFog for over a year now and is very happy apart from that, he hasn’t found a good solution for mounting the tubes to his googles yet (but then he isn’t trying very hard either). I’ve recently received the Novrtisch Antifog Unit 2nd Gen and can now actually compare the...

    Gun case - running out of space

    When I bought my first rifle I bought a Nuprol Large Case with the internal Size: 102x33x12.5cm That was big enough for the Krytac with scope and a few mags and my AAP. But now the collection has grown and a TAC 41 LS joined the lineup. Unfortunately the two rifles won’t fit into the same...

    New TAC-41 LS Hardly any change in Joule after switching to 120Nm spring

    Hi I just picked up my new TAC 41 LS and of course one of the first things I’ve done is to swap to the stronger 120Nm spring. On the normal spring it chronoed on somewhere between 1.6 and 1.7 Joules which was more than I thought it would (I didn’t have heavy BBs yet so I just used some 0.25s...

    Help me decide on TAC 41 L vs LS

    Hi I am thinking of getting my first bolt action but I am not sure whether this is for me so I don’t want to splash out too much from the start but I would want to still be able to shoot at 2J or there about. The TAC 41 LS looks very interesting given the price point and how light it is. My...

    When a ‘good idea’ meets reality

    I thought it might be useful to have a phone mount on my plate carrier so that I can use the Ares Alpha app to see my location, that of the objectives etc. So I got myself a cheap mount from AliExpress that protects the phone and holds it securely in place (in landscape mode) on my chest. I can...

    Can you keep an AEG in a hot attic or will that damage the hop rubber?

    I’ve kept my AEG in a hard case in the attic and up to a few weeks ago it didn’t get very hot up there but that has changed. I played today and while it is still hopping the BBs well I thought it curved more today than before. What is your advice? Can I leave an AEG in the attic in a padded...

    Molle Phone case that protects the camera as well

    Hi I think a molle phone case that you mount on your plate carrier could be quite useful, e.g. if you use maps or even Ares Alpha. I have seen quite a few models but they all have an opening for the camera. What a brilliant idea for Airsoft …  I don’t want my camera being shot out. I won’t...

    Recommendations for a sniper rifle

    As I am already running around (actually more crawling and less running) like half a bush I thought I might as well try a sniper rifle. I like the idea of a lightweight sniper rifle like the SSG10 A3 (short) or the Silverback TAC41a. I’ve only seen the TAC41a in real so far and while I think...

    Any brick and mortar shop in the South East that stock Novritsch

    I am currently thinking of getting a sniper and I quite like the style of the Novritsch SSG10 A3 or the Silverback TAC41a. I had a look at the TAC41a at Surplusstore in Crawley but it seems no shop in the South East seem to stock Novritsch. It is mainly PatrolBase, Skirmshop and Land Warrior...

    Are teams with red armbands in the disadvantage?

    While playing the red team on Sunday and later seeing a picture of myself I was wondering - are teams that have to wear red armbands in the disadvantage compared to players with green armbands? I’ve got a viper hood and a gun wrap to camouflage myself as much as possible without going full...

    Bluetooth Airsoft Targets

    Hi, I am thinking of setting up a small Airsoft shooting range in the loft and was looking for bluetooth targets that can give you timing and pop up randomly. I can see that there are basically 2 options, the Eshooter Serenity 2 (£59 on PatrolBase) or the WoSporT Target (you can get it from...

    Bipods - are you still using it or is it taking up space in the shed now?

    To all that bought bipods, are you still using them after a couple of games or have they been retired?  I’ve got Krytac Trident SPR with an LPVO , a suppressor and low profile mags, so from the looks a bipod would go with this RIF but I am not sure whether it will be a good addition or just a...

    Recommendation for low profile M4 magazine

    Hi, When I go prone with my Krytac the magazines are a bit too high and the gun basically rests on the mags. Do you have any recommendations for low profile M4 mags? I’ve seen the EPM-1 S but Negative Airsoft doesn’t rate them because of their strong spring (he recommends the EPM but there is...

    Repairing pistol magazine (or is it just KIA)

    Hi While gearing up for a Skirmish at DogTag today I filled up one of my AAP magazines and it hissed back quite angrily at me. After that i could hear a constant low level air leak from the bottom. Can you repair these mags or are they gone?

    How to deal with condensation on optics

    Hi, Played this morning (Driver Woods) and had a few problems with my LPVO (Vortex crossfire). As it was quite cold outside I had condensation on the glass. I think it was just from the outside. It was difficult to make anything out through the optics as everything looked like it was foggy...

    Painting my pistol

    Hi  I am planning on spray painting my AAP-01 pistol once it is warn enough (> 12 degrees) and dry enough (so by the looks of it that will be late May ;-(  Is there a danger of paint getting into the gun? Do I need to cover the small gap between upper and lower? What would you tape off? ...

    Chronographs - any cheap recommendations?

    I don’t strictly need a chrono as I don’t build my own guns but that doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t want one ? I just don’t want to spend much on it when I would only use occasionally. Do you have any recommendations for affordable chronographs? What is the minimum you have to spend? I guess...

    Sending RIFs in UK. Should you purchase the extra insurance?

    Hi, I need to ship my Krytac in the UK. The shipping is not that expensive (less than £10) but if you want to insure it the price jumps up by £25.  Are Airsoft RIFs actually covered under the insurance (I wouldn't be surprised if they are not) and do you really need the insurance? Which...

    Homemade bb catcher for target practice

    After seeing people using Gousto boxes as bb catchers on another thread I thought I share what I’ve done for my Airsoft shooting range in the garden. I didn’t use Gousto but Hello Fresh packing material. I’ve used a 60x120cm MDF board and screwed on 1x2 in boards. I then filled it with the...
