Depends on the person, with real guns ppl usually have different colours of tape representing different ammo types, Airsofters may do it to show different capacity magazines. As for this, was bought like this, lets just go with cos diehard. Vulpiness 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stodgy Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Coloured tape is a proper American thing. Never seen it on Brits tbh. The ANGLICO I worked with on Op HERRICK used green yellow and red to signify percentage of ammo left as a quick reference for the Pl Sgt. We carried the usual mags and took off eachother all the time and speed loaders and bandoleers as lighter and don’t really slow down fire fights as not everyone really fires at once. Unless a count for rapid is required. Looks ally tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really dont get on with nuprol batteries. Have a look on component shop and get some much better Turnigy batteries in future. Druid799 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asomodai Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I have three of the same Nuprol batteries for about a year and a half. Never failed though I always put mine I to storage mode immediately after a Skirmish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Prisce Posted January 11, 2019 Supporters Share Posted January 11, 2019 I had nothing but Nuprol batteries until recently, but all of the nuprol batteries started to swell in the last few months and there are now 3 I will not use at all(looking for the correct way to dispose of them). 17 minutes ago, Asomodai said: I have three of the same Nuprol batteries for about a year and a half.

Iceni Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 @Druid799 Well done I know you like to run a gun without upgrades, but If you ever want advice on what to upgrade in it just tag me Fire support have the king arms 110rnd mid cap boxes in stock. I think they work out at about £7.50 each. Are you getting it Fetted at GFC, They install them for free when you buy a gun and fet together and add the relevant service option. I'm also loving the fact it's a hybrid. A1 para upper but with the commando lower rail. I'm expecting you to do a full review when you've had it a few weeks! Shapeways do a conversion for that style of lower rail to reduce the rail length. It replaces the long rail with a more lightweight 3 slot design.https://www.shapeways.com/product/LU48DGXN6/aug-bottom-picatinny-rail-3-slots?optionId=65356676&li=marketplace Druid799 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No not bothering I’m a single shot all the time player (can honestly count on one hand the amount of auto I’ve used in mths !) and I don’t really buy in to the whole ’faster trigger response’ gumph as far as I’m concerned the only fast response that has any effect on the game is from the player ! Yup soon as I saw it I did think “that’s one funky looking gun , I’m having it !” The rail ? I’m bit of a bodget and see what happens guy so not even having thought about it now you’ve shown me the ‘mini’ rail I shall make my own from the original ! A very big thank you for your sage advice , and if and when I do upgrade I shall most DEFINITELY be PM’ing you ! 😁 cheers bud .

FreeFrag.UK Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 It's rare I post in this thread but given the encouragement from @Druid799 and with a lot of wisdom and advice from @Iceni I have ordered this little beauty: I also added in some mid-cap's, a three point sling, new hop rubber and tight bore inner barrel... just for good measure XD Iceni, Druid799 and Immortal 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceni Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 You got exactly the right gun for the look you want. The JG would of done the job visually as well, but I think you made the right choice overall with the CA. Same deal applies, any issues or you want advice just start up a thread and you can have what I know. I think you will find it a trouble free gun, and very comfortable. One thing you might want is the modification to the safe bar for a single shot only position. It's a small mod that will add a 3rd position. Safe, Semi only, Semi + full auto. Some sites will want to see some trigger control before they let you use it in semi only games without the mod. Having the mod done means it's impossible to go full auto in those games. And it costs nothing to make the modification. Just a couple of files and a sharp knife to remove a cube of plastic. Druid799 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
