    E&L AK74 Upgrades

    I've got an E&L Essential AKS74un that I use for CQB. I've changed a few of the externals to make it more ergonomic. I'd like to change some of the internals just for the sake of it. I'll probably change the barrel, bucking and mosfet as per the recommendations above. Is there anything else...

    Comms espionage

    If you have a decent phone reception, a secure alternative is to use bluetooth earpieces and go on a conference call with your buddies.

    Airsofting Wristwatches

    My daily wearer is usually a diver. For manual work and airsofting it's an old solar G-Shock. They can take a beating.

    Boonie v base ball cap

    I prefer a thin balaclava - it takes some of the sting away plus keeps the midges at bay.

    Waco’s guide to field sustainment

    It's also a good idea to pack a hi viz vest in your bag to aid being spotted in emergencies. Plus it's useful to avoid getting twatted if you end up being out longer than expected, and have to trek along tight country roads in the dark.

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    When I'm out in the countryside at this time of year I end up crawling with ticks if I don't give myself a spray down with tickspray. The last game I was at was deep in tick country and none of our group picked up a single one after we had a good spray down.  Ingredients: 1 spray bottle, 2...

    Airsoft 'practical' shooting

    Not quite the same thing, but I like to do some dry firing with an airsoft gun a few times a week as a warm up before circuits, or going for a run. If you want to turn it into a workout drop into prone and stand back up between rounds. Do it in a big room and add in some movement, or put a chair...

    Footwear advice needed

    I can't recommend any footwear as I don't have the same problems as yourself. I did have plantar fasciitis for about a year and it was a really irritating thing to have. One thing I found that helped was rolling my feet on a lacrosse ball. I still do it as part of a stretching routine to help...

    Playing with old injuries

    I've got a number of niggling old injuries that would keep me off playing airsoft if I didn't keep them under control through rehab exercises and stretching. The best thing I done was to book a private sports physio to look them over. I would recommend anyone else to do the same. It might not...

    What are you're rig/vest recommendations

    Smersh. I find belt kit the most comfortable to move around in and it's quick to take on and off.

    Sling Lenght...?

    I'm afraid I can't offer much advice here. I've never used a C-clamp and I normally only use a sling to carry a rifle on my back.
