New to the forum but......

[Airpig41]

Really just an old fart who enjoys airsoft pistols but in IPSC format rather than skirmishing. Too old and failing joints for that.

Joined the forum to get hints and help on technical issues as well as hints and tips on maintenance etc.

Looking forward to browsing some more of the content, my go to Tech is Luke Dobson (Negative Airsoft) very helpful and I'm used to him giving me a hard time for the style of my pistols!!

Hi bud and welcome to the forum.

Another old fart here but still active in games despite failing joints lol.

I did quite a lot of IPSC disciplines with my old gun club in Christchurch Dorset.

That was with 177 co2 pistols. 

I've just today passed one of my guns onto my son. An Umarex smith and Wesson 686 6inch. Lovely satin finish. It's just been sat under the bed for years. Still got the 686 4 inch though😉

 

What part of the country are you in?

You will find plenty of info on teching and maintenance here.

 

Enjoy the forum 👍

Good to know Shamal, always needing to play with temperamental pistols!!

I'm based in Dorset and shoot in Christchurch funnily enough.

Yes you are right cgc but Tal were keyholders and did some of the management of the club. I used to do range officer duties there and after sessions were finished the keys were returned to the shop.

Thank you Galvatron. 

It's going to undertake a change in the next few days, a new split slide set up, a CTM TAC Flatline.

Just to see if we can improve it a little.
