Supporters TheFull9 Posted Tuesday at 18:40 Supporters Share Posted Tuesday at 18:40 I've never personally seen a positive review of any of these events, not denying some might exist but I've only come across scathingly negative reports. I'm honestly shocked to the point of comedy that they're still going 😂 I feel like they're only saved by the fact that there's very, very little else in terms of options for big weekend games that aren't leet-hardcore muh-imershuns MiLsiM which will entice people to go to the expense and effort of significant travel; especially given the rare and unusual sites they somehow (??) manage to obtain usage of. I don't run sites, zero experience in that area, but the impression I get is that people who have done it for years are constantly tweaking their layouts and games to make best use of the physical area available. They usually start off with at least minor issues, often major ones, but if they refine the site over time they've got a chance of keeping a place going long term. Hence, I would personally have pretty much no expectations of an unusually large game running even close to smoothly at any location that's never been used for airsoft before. That's no dig at all at people who go along to such things, I also really want to play at disused theme parks, prisons, forts etc, way more appealing than yet another patch of flat woodland with some plastic sheet stapled to pallets. Just an issue with this type of game organisation that I can't really foresee being overcome. Lozart and Tackle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiantKiwi Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Never got to leave the safezone today - what I predicted months ago for the T8 'mws' hpa adapter happened, and the double stack jammed every single time (so me and a friend are now going to fashion a single stack collar for it) so that was the DE out of action. WE M4 was having air problems yet again, but have now isolated that to the adaptor as well. Pistols didn't fair much better, feed lips snapped on one pistol, nozzle return spring broke on another. Was nice and sunny though 🤣 Colin Allen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I definitely had the wrong WE adapter version though, someone else with a WE XM177 was having hop issues but otherwise running flawlessly, but their (newer gen) airtac adapter was running on 120psi. Mine has to run on 180 to cycle. Edited 18 hours ago by GiantKiwi ButcherBill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impulse Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago I didn't get out of the safe zone today at Worthing Airsoft. The rifle that I let my friend borrow was... really dirty as it turns out. Took it on the range and my shots were going everywhere, so I had to take it apart, give the hop rubber and barrel a good clean and make sure the grub screws that held the barrel in were nice and tight as they were loose and the barrel was moving. Once I did all of that, got it properly set up and chrono'd, it was basically lunch time and I couldn't be bothered to get all my kit out to go and play for the afternoon, however it was shooting really nicely again once I did all that; though it was hard to properly zero because it was quite breezy today. Also, my newly upgraded, but very old Bell 1911 worked really well with the new upgrades, though with how cold it was this morning it struggled to get through a magazine with that tiny gas reservoir...

Ulmocuk Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago (edited) I hate to play againts these paintball based players with their modifyed hpa pistols. Where I live sites are too small and full of these players. and I am there with my MWS setup 8 mags 10kg gear in total try to out run these players. Seems like they got unlimited ammo meanwhile I count every shot... Please can someone suggest me a good Mil-sim site around South buckinghamshire/Oxfordshire Edited 13 hours ago by Ulmocuk EDcase 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
