To be fair I don't have a DSR-1 in my collection but I'd rather have a Walther WA-2000, besides I do have 2 Mac11's, 3 if you count my Mac10 too.

 

Can't place an add just now (with pics) but has anyone got a full length gas tube for an M16A1/A2/A3/A4 going cheap?

 

 

 

Perfect time to add one to the collection that's come from a collection and had 4 mags through it total 😉

 

Absolutely not jealous of the Mac 10 at all...

 

I have a gas tube, bit pricey as it comes with a free DSR-1 😂

No need to be jealous, it's a cheap Mac-10, it was a replacement for a two tone one I rattle canned & did a shit job of(it's hiding in my shed somewhere).

Got a new gearbox and an ejection port cover for my M16A3 today, the Orion gear box was working fine but the join in the red wire prevented the motor sitting properly in the grip, I'm sure the rif was working before it was dismantled for posting but I'm damned if I could get the motor sitting properly.

I'm no tech but it looks to me that this gearbox has been worked on, in fact I know it has as I can see through the spring access that teeth have been removed from the gear/s.

Orion gearbox works using a motor with a longer pinion & the issue the seller had with it only firing on full auto with no safety seems to be the selector possibly in the wrong allignment? even the new gearbox suffered this complaint. Working silly hours just now at work so will fiddle about with it another time when I can focus properly.

6 WE SCAR H V3 Mags, as i'm intending on running it as DMR, so the HPA avenue is just an unnecessary irritation.

 

By the time they've landed in the UK, at worst case its going to be £45 a mag.

A pal linked to the FS sale that was going on as he knows I'm fanatical about g&p.. and it just happened to be my daughters 16th , so looks like I have a farther daughter build 🤣 for her first rif.

Saw a father and son using one of these a few weeks ago, don’t think they hit anyone but it looked like a right laugh, it cut through the (softer) weeds and bushes like the one on Predator!!

 

For the second game they took a 3000 round pot of BB’s with them and left it at the spawn point so they could keep it going.

 

Glad they were on my/our team! Have fun!

Only recently got back into this hobby. I’ve tried to make my new collection something that covers all bases but isn’t so big that some replicas never get used. So far I’ve picked up an NGRS MP5, TM USP, TM FNX 45, and this is the latest addition. Thinking of getting a Saiga next.

Yeah I honestly can't wait to use it. It's going to be so much fun haha that's a good idea of the pot of bbs at spawn point I might have to do that 🤣

I had delivered today the Bolt Airsoft Cobra. The looks on it are immense!

 

reading through the leaflet, as I do any RiF I purchase, slapped in a small 7.4v lipo andddd SMOKE. Instant smoke from the connection wires and the battery. It’s a brand new battery. 
 

Absolutely gutted. On the phone to the retailer and back it goes. 😢


Update! …. Can’t be fixed refund issued 😢

Bought 5 used Guns Modify Pmags from here, so I can run the DE on those instead of HPA, as I've decided i'm only using HPA when I absolutely have to, rather than all the time.

These look insane for the price! Absolutely gorgeous gun 😍

i am very happy with it. i would say this over a VFC in terms of performance out the box and externals.

Pick up this E&C M110A1 today very nice!

Will be getting one for my collection in a couple of weeks, I did consider the GBB in the classifieds but it'll be a wall hanger & prefer the looks of this anyway.

To add to my recent WE sig 226 mk25 I have been looking for more of the 30 (36) round green gas extended mags, our local CQB site only allows you to take 300 BB’s into each short game so I’ve been trying to get to at least half of that in mag capacity, the mags hold enough gas to shoot 2x full mags of BB’s, so I only need a speed loader in game to get to the magic 300.

 

I found a used, looks brand new to me WE sig 226 P Virus for £60 with the extended mag included, the mags alone are £35 so  isnapped that up so I now have a complete spare gun should the need arise. 
 

Now packing 4x extended mags and the std mag so 140 BB’s on paper but more like 160 when loaded so mission complete. 
 

Added the WASDN X400 Vampire laser/strobe/torch and have the Acetech brighter C incoming to complete the indoor CQB pistol load out. I had a quick practice with the laser and it’s really helpful when moving around in a CQB environment and the strobe will hopefully distract some of the incoming fire, I will see if I can mount it in a usable way on the MP5K which already shoots lasers and with an actual laser should be an amazing CQB platform.

Both arrived within 10 minutes of each other today...

 

So much for 20 days on the snail mail then lol.
