    Spring M rating in relation to bolt action rifles

    I understand that the spring M rating refers to meters per second, firing .20 BB's in an AEG rifle. So I worked out using Code Red's converter that M110 spring should give you roughly 360fps and 1.2j? I have a M110 spring in the bolt rifle and when Chrono'd the weekend only got 1.2j with .30...

    Gate Blu-Link

    Hello, Does anyone have any experience of installing and using one? I’ve been studying the website and downloaded the manual but am still not sure if I understand how it works. Does it replace your current Mosfet or connect in series between the mosfet and battery via the deans? From the app...

    Should I buy another TM VSR10 G spec

    I have already bought one about 9 months ago and am thinking of getting another. When I got it, I did some small upgrades (thanks to you guys) that improved the range and accuracy, but kept the stock spring so my son could cock it. What's happened now is that both my son and daughter love using...

    Can a shotgun be used in a Semi only game?

    I'll ask when I'm next at my local site but what the consensus from the forum. Would a 3 or 6 shot shotgun be frowned upon in a game that's semi-fire only. The idea, as I understand it, behind semi is to only have one BB in flight at a time? wouldn't a multi BB shotgun be against this rule?

    CM16 not feeding BBs after bucking change.

    I know there’s a few threads on this kind of issue but I can’t find one with my specific issue. I took my CM16 apart to replace the bucking rubber (same green rubber). When I put it back together it worked perfectly and felt really nice. When getting the rifle crono’d on Saturday the magazine...

    Anyone regretted moving to a GBBR?

    I’ve been playing for over a year now and am looking to move on from my starter G&G CM16. I do like the rifle but find the range and accuracy a bit frustrating sometimes. I find I have to fire a lot of BB’s to get the hit and although I’ve got used to this style of play I’d like to step it...

    Cocking Effort VSR10

    My son really likes his totally standard VSR10 but wants more range. I’ve got quotes for upgrading and am more than happy to pay.  As he’s only 12 I have a real worry about his ability to cock the gun. Guys we’ve spoken to at games have been more than happy to let my son try cocking their...

Now I’m starting to have issues where the blow back is not working and not loading the next BB, I have to manually cock it it get it going again. It...

    Engagement Distance for Snipers

    Hello, I'm going to ask this question at our local site this weekend but was wondering on the thoughts of the collective. We've just bought a VSR10 and reading the local sites rules the engagement distance is 30m for snipers.  I've worked out that the joule rating of the VSR10 will be around...

    Anything going on 6-7th April?

    Hi, Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this.  My son and I have a few days free and were wondering if anyone knows of any Airsoft event happening in the UK on the 6-7th April. We've played a number of woodland battles and although very much still Noobs fancy trying something on a bigger...

    Tokyo Marui M9A1 Beretta

    I’ve done my leg in playing airsoft, I’m not 25 anymore! (stop laughing) To cheer myself up I think I’m going to buy a pistol. I really want a Browning but the WE ones get bad reviews.  Years ago I had a 177 pellet 92F and loved it so am looking at the Tokyo Marui M9A1 Beretta GBB Any...

    Do you leave your magazines loaded?

    I’m sure I’m overthinking this, but do you empty your magazines at the end of the day? My logic is that the springs inside the magazines are under tension when loaded and could stretch over time leading to poor performance. Am I talking rubbish? ?

    Buying our first Pew Pew’s!

    Today I qualified for a UKARA licence and am going to buy our first guns. I say ‘ours’ as my 12 year old son and myself are taking up this hobby. I’ve been doing my research and think I’ve settled on the Specna Arms Flex series. These seem like good value for money and are very lightweight...

    Mid game reloading

    My son and I have played a few games now and I have a question on reloading. We are still using the hire guns so only have one magazine. Often mid game we run out and have to reload which involves pouring bb’s from a bag into the mag and always end up spilling them everywhere.  there must be a...

    Hello from Horsham (Sussex)

    My son (11) and I went to our first skirmish on Sunday. We had a blast and are thinking of taking this up as a hobby. We’ve got lots of questions but will browse the site before asking something that’s probably been asked a million times. We are going to go a few more time to make sure it’s for...
