TAG innovation adaptation.

I've chosen the metal one anyway PT, I wanted the extra versatility of the rail and the ability to put an ELCAN on it ;)

 
No, still waiting on the launcher for Xmas- I might try some TAG in it, depends on my local site's stance on launched pyros.

 
Any update on TAGs ?

Weve got our next game coming up in April and Im still interested.

 
Still out of stock in the whole of the UK unfortunately. I have contacted Airsoft World to ask when they are getting more in. May be worth you contacting them too as if they feel there is demand they may order more earlier!

 
Have spoken. Will be about another two weeks subject to UK customs clearance.

JD Airsoft have them in stock (according to their website).
I've heard one too many tales of woe concerning JD's customer service to even consider buying something from them which may require after sales support...

 
Right, have ordered some for play at the next Okto Eight game in April, so we will see how they pan out.

 


Fired the launcher dry - healthy bang and smoke from the gas charge. Couldnt get it to hold gas a second time. Reset the primer pin as per the vague instructions. Still didn't work - just vented. So, took the grenade launcher apart and used silicon grease and some oil to lubricate the three O rings. Works now !!

it seems quite a tight fit to get the shell into the rifled launcher tube. Don't want to push it too far in as I'm not ready to use it and don't want it sitting in the tube for a month. Will probably use some oil to ease it down. It doesn't say explicitly in the instructions but looking at YT videos it seems you are supposed to push down on the nose of the grenade which seems a bit weird.

 
Aye, is a tight fit which is what you want as you get better range. Yup just push down on the tip with a twist in the direction of the rifling as far in as it'll go. I use silicone spray in the casing to aid. If you do push it in but aren't going to use it then you can unscrew the shell from the co2 part and then push it back out again

 
Fired the PECKER practice round today - I aimed it at the weatherporoof cover of my garden swing thinking it would absorb the impact as it does when hit by BBs. The round went right through it at a range of 10m so I now have a nice split in the cover. I can see why these need a minimum engagement distance. Despite the tight fit in the tube and its reluctance to screw down in the rifling, it pops out a treat.

 
utterly love the Reapers, and since getting the hang of them the Archangels are lots of fun too but limited in usefulness in woodland. I have 60 Reapers sitting in my kitchen ready to make some noise skirmishing! :D

 
We are allowing the PECKERs at the Okto Eight Milsim next month and we will be trialling the REAPERS which probably means they will be allowed at the following game in August. However, we wont allow the Archangels or Paladins because we are concerned the impact grenades might deflect off someone closer accidently and go off and people arent happy about getting their gear hit with orange powder at the beginning of a weekender.

 
the archangels apparently don't arm within an MED but not sure how far that is!

slightly off topic, but I managed roughly a 30m showershell shot on a dug in defensive team on Sunday, mortared them in perfectly. Would be lucky to manage that at 30' using green gas.... CO2 rocks! :D

 
How do you prime a showershell with CO2 ? adapter ?

 
yup, use the same as I do to fill the TAG grenades. Have tried a couple of different brands but only the Madbull ones can take the extra pressure and one has already failed which needs repairing.
