    Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 Reliability Issue

    Raptor, I have a VFC 19X and tried it on some Abbey gas. It didn’t like it a bit. I run it on Nuprol Red in the cold and it works a treat. No issues with feeding or consistency.    CBH

    Trying to make a small site

    All I’ll add is this......... Firearms Act 1968 (1)A person commits an offence if, while he has a firearm [or imitation firearm] with him, he enters or is in any building or part of a building as a trespasser and without reasonable excuse (the proof whereof lies on him). Basically ANY civil...

    Advice Needed - Need a Long Gun / Bergen Backpack

    First Tactical make a rucksack that has a pass through pocket where the hydration goes. It’s designed for a gun bag to go through it to allow it to be carried as part of the system. There is a video on the Military 1st website...

    GHK M4 Mod 1

    I recently brought a GHK MK18. Unfortunately mine didn’t come with a 1 joule nozzle so I couldn’t field it in game yet, but I have spent some time shooting with it the last couple of weeks and I agree. The whole GBBR experience does it for me. There are loads of choices for iron sights and...

    HK416a5 VFC GBBR after game review / report

    The VFC HK416a5 RAL8000 is a looker. She is a sturdy, beautiful rifle, with a magnificent build quality and an up to date set of controls. Her fit and function impressed me and most people who see her. But let’s be honest. Airsoft rifles are about gaming. About running about on the field and...

    RedWolf Airsoft UK

    Looks and feels rock solid. The DD rail is the right shade of bronze and it all looks authentic, even down to the Colt trades. The upper and lower receiver has a fantastic covering. It looks like cerakote but it’s not mentioned on the box. I was going to spray it up but it looks too nice. ? It...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Been awhile since I brought anything Airsoft related but splurged out on two new GBBR platforms. I know they are both SBRs but after years of lugging round my Krytac LVOA C, I fancied something smaller.  GHK MK18, (The T1, Peq and torch come from my LVOA.) And, a Umarex VFC HK416a5...

    Armed Police - Yes or No

     Baton guns are generally deployed as a less lethal option on most firearms deployments and are regularly used to ‘brake a chain of events’ i:e stopping some twat getting shot with a conventional weapon. The baton round was changed from the solid round to one with an air pocket on the tip about...

    Warrior elastic mag pouch problems

    I have some of those mag pouches. They loosen up over time. I left some empty mags in them for a couple of days and it helped. CBH

    Another ball bearing airgun incident.

    Not a peculiar resolution at all. It’s what the baton gun is deployed for.  It’s a less lethal option that can be fired earlier than a conventional firearm (say the gunman is holding the gun pointing at the ground or it’s in his belt) and hopefully break a chain of events so twats don’t get...

    Plate Carrier Options

    I run a 5.11 Tactec plate carrier for Airsoft and use it for fitness with Beaver Fit plates (14lbs). It is incredibly well built and holds the plates fantastically. It’s designed to hold SAPI plates and a number of Police forces ARVOs are issued with them and wear them daily. They aren’t cheap...

    Nuprol N Mag Mid Cap 30/125 Round

    Well I checked and none of the followers actually came out for me to look at. So not much help really. I gave all six mags a good shake and the follower droppped from view but none actually came out with the spring so not too sure what you did to yours? CBH

    DIY Plates?

    If your thinking of using it for fitness too then your probably best off spending a bit of cash buying some training plates. £55 will get you a pair of 7lb Beaver Fit training plates from Tactree http://tactree.co.uk/beaverfit-weighted-vest-plates-flat these are flat but will be ok in a quality...

    Krytac-LVOA-C

    I put an M100 in my LVOA-C and it took the FPS up to 340. To be honest, other than getting the BBs to target a bit quicker it hasn’t made a massive difference on range or accuracy. Out of the Box it is a fantastic gun and I have had mine since the first batch came out. It still runs perfectly...

    5.11 Tactical TacTec Plate Carrier Vest - Sandstone -Review

    So a review of some 5.11 kit. I'll be honest, until recently I have never had any 5.11 kit. I was kind of put off by the outward gushing on the internet from some quarters. But I was drawn to 5.11 after exposure at work. My load outs don't follow any set pattern. Too be honest I pick all my kit...

    Sniper - part of a team?

    We don't game as a team but there are 4 or 5 of us who regularly buddy up on game days. These are mainly low ammo games and there are normally loads of 'snipers' about. Some of these are extremely accomplished and have superb field craft. To be honest the majority are not too effective at all...
