Whilst that is very cool - what's the point of it? Does it actually fire something? (genuine question - I know nothing about launchers)

there are two types of projectiles typically used in Airsoft launchers,
1) moscart shells, that are effectively shotgun style shells that you load up with between 18-200rounds and shoot out all one one go be that in m203, M79 or rocket launcher. They all do the same thing.
2) an actual projectile. I typically use TAG innovation rounds, that either explode on impact or after a certain flight time or even that deploy smoke. But you can also use NERF rockets too
Check out this video from circa 7 years ago where I use an explosive 'archangel' TAG round to shoot a dude behind cover.

Tag rounds really do transform the grenadier class into a really useful accessory to carry, but not all sites let you use them though.

If it's the VFC one it can shoot a scatter of BBs like a shower shell or a projectile like a ball.
Here's a video showing shower shells and a tip/cap type shell.

Other than looks, there isn't one.
To clarify; yes it functions, but there's plenty of other devices to do the same.
This is just the cool factor.

Cool! Do they have any minimum order value? I want to try the begadi hop rubbers.To test this i've dropped an order in for their rotary hop unit and associated extra parts. The UK is on their international shipping page in zone 2. Can't see any issues coming up unless they manually cancel the order. Time will tell

It doesn't look like it however shipping appears to be a flat rate just under €20 so best make it worth your while. I wanted to try their hop rubbers and nubs but forgot to add them ?. My order was dispatched this morning with DHL so I can't even adjust my order.

Id contact them
That (I would guess) means that they have just notified dhl to collect and generated your order label and barcode
Just a Clone Zenitco bottom rail for my AK, and a Tracer unit Suppresor which was cheaper than just buying the tracer insert module, both from 6mm in HK

Tried that and unfortunately by the time I got a reply it had already been handed over to DHL. Oh well.

Holosun PID , been waiting to try one and so far doesn’t disappoint , build quality is decent and it’s a nice alternative to the Surefire / Streamlight / inforce offerings

Its on its way from Aliexpress which I've never used before, can't believe the bargains on there! I think this may become a problem

Very interesting AEG. The Double Eagle AX15 with the new Kestral ETU (it has bluetooth and an App).

Now that is interesting. It's a premium-priced gun (~£350) - I would like to know if Double Eagle can compete in that market sector.
I would love to hear more in a review on here.

Going to AI500 this weekend with a US-inspired recce loadout and figured I'd go all the way with it ? ? ? ? ?
It's freedom time!

Given the ending of my current work contract, and a possible period of being a bit skint, I thought I'd invest wisely, so to add to my 5000 0.20g for plinking and test-firing...

10KG of Warhead 0.28g Bio BBs, should see my running through a good few skirmishes (especially if I turn the fun switch to semi, a bit more often)
£105 inc next day delivery. Just over a tenner for each bag of ~3,500 BBs seems like a good deal to me.
