DanBow Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 According to the interwebs it was designed between 1980-1983 and produced from 1984 so i can just sneak it into my, casual, 80s SAS load out. 😁 Jaylordofwaargh, Cannonfodder and _K4MF_ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a mishap with the glue, more than I was anticipating decided to flow but I can clean it up. Absolutely in love with it, and with it being WE there’s plenty of upgrades! Just need maybe 2 more mags now… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASP383 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 With my Brother-in-Law and his wife coming over from Oz this weekend, he wanted to go shooting, however, my dive bottle is empty and out of test date, so no air rifles, so airsoft it is, which happens to mean needing a third pew. Not having much of a budget due to double birthday party for my girls, meant going cheap and cheerful, so checking my local RFD website and checking them out on YT for reviews etc to try to find best "bang for buck", I nipped into the shop this morning and picked up a Specna Arms SA-F02 and red dot optic. Have to say, for only £120, it appears to be punching above it's price point, with rotary hop and tight bore barrel (looks brass?), finish looks good and going by the various reviews, should be better out of the box than my G&G SM16 Raider, which I had to change the hop rubber and barrel for it to shoot OK. already fitted the optic and lense protector, so all I need to do now, is set the hop, which depending on B-i-L's schedule, will either be at our local airsoft site or at my woods, along with my lad. If my younger daughter wants to take up airsoft, then at least we've got a pew available for her or even use as a base for a custom build.

gavinkempsell Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Must resist the temptation to fit these straight away... Think I should do some crono tests with diff weights BB's & get all scientifically-ish, means waiting till my day off next week. patience is not a virtue I usually possess.

Crazy_Crystal Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Just a few bits for me as I'm hoping to get out a bit more this year having been doing life stuff most of last year, a Crye SPS frag pouch (the inserts mean it can carry everything from pistol mags to 12g shells) and a replica scalar leap aimpoint mount for my MCX(the holy warrior version) and the build quality on that is amazing 👌 _K4MF_ and Egon_247 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RichardC Posted February 6 Popular Post Share Posted February 6 Finally got a pair of Lundhags - been wanting a pair since the late 80s and the SASS catalogue. They don’t feel as heavy as they look, I can run and the membrane will never fail! Really wish I’d got them a long time ago.

As a young squaddie in the early/mid eighties I dreamt about owning a pair of these, but could never justify them as they would have cost me about 3 weeks wages, or beer tokens as they were better known🥴 (no such thing as dry January back then, or any other month lol🤣) EDcase, Enid_Puceflange and Tactical Pith Helmet 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t scrimp on hydration. Tackle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t scrimp on hydration. Can't argue on the Hydration bit, but the dms were terrible, low cut & fit like wellies, made worse by the fact we had to wear putties with them. Got my mitts on some urban patrol boots, they were like comfy slippers in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters TheFull9 Posted February 8 Supporters Share Posted February 8 Back when I was in, you had to take your boots off before you even put them on in the morning. @Tackle just doing a 4-yorkshiremen bit, please excuse my low grade sarcasm.

Jaylordofwaargh Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 So I did a thing and raided ak2m4 again for a couple of nozzles hope that would fix my feeding issues...jury still out I also got caught on a discord server for a TM MC51....and it's in the post!

Amokura Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Has anyone encountered this before? I now have a UKARA, but at the time of purchase (last boxing day), I ordered the RIF in two-tone, and the retailer - Extreme Airsoft, sent it without any paint work lol (?). Not that I'm complaining of this "error", but rather find it amusing. Cannonfodder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannonfodder Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I've had that happen before too. I rang the shop to let them know but tbh I got the impression that they didn't really care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Roach Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Used the 416 for three games now. First time with GBBR, gas got colder as I played outside, muzzle velocity went from 349 fps to 140... Second time, warmed my mags against my body with a complex rotation system and used red gas, still quite underwhelming. Third time, used green gas but hand warmers in mag pouches, gleaming range but couldn't see fall of shot. Now I have a scope. Will do a bit of zeroing and hop-up fine tuning next game. gavinkempsell, Enid_Puceflange and DanBow 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wavey_Gravey Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 VFC’s are great but getting them to work reliably and consistently is a bit of a chore. They do look pretty though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
