Tbh I would much rather play tournament style speedball than airsoft but there's no such place in Scotland They are very tactical for the application of speedsofting Personally, I'd love to give speedsoft a go but the cost of the gear behind it for a proper speedsofter is probably a little outside my budget right now lol *looks over at his skirmish kit* got a bit money happy there... still not even bought the stuff for maintenance on it... hmm... I think I need a payrise... But yeah, speedsoft looks like a lot of fun to me... Guess ill have to make do with just general skirmish kit for CQB for now though. (not that it's a bad thing, 11.1 Lipos and all that so can get some decent speed going) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightningCh Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 The HPA setup that I will want and the fine tuning of the gun lol. It's more the fact I can't get the trigger response out of the AEGs so wouldn't quite be a "proper" setup. Obviously it'll do the job. Just not gonna feel quite right.

DSG, decent gears and a decent motor can be had for well under £100 then chuck in some sort of microswitch trigger then you're set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSG? *goes to google then comes back before i even typed anything in* faster if someone explains it because I am a lazy teen-im 20... hmm... ok guess I better be adult and google it myself lol... (I started airsoft in September and have zero tech skills lol, scared to take apart either one of my guns in case i break/lose a part in them) Oh and I second the "if it works, it works" same with the "if it's stupid but works, it works" approaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Although that still requires me gathering the courage to take a gun apart. Hmm... Guess I can ask in the Classifieds about a cheap one thats already broken so then I can break/lose as many parts as I want lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert James Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 So FINALLY got some photos of my CTSFO loadout. It's a poor mans effort, costing below £300 (Considering my own topic post to post everything inc Links and individual photos of all gear, if allowed)? The "actual" load out cost over £1000, and I really like it, so I have picked out what I find as close to, on a budget Just missing patches (police ones) and knee pads. And of course, I have added my own personal touches as unique is what sticks out more right? LightningCh and _stylian_ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightningCh Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 @Skara Wow, even your skirmish is more competitive than the stuff at my site lol... Generally just capture the landmarks both sides attack/defend them. Team with most landmarks at end wins.... Or actual story driven where the most enforced rule typically is "defenders cant cross the border" which is down the centre of the map usually.

Skara Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 The sad thing is: there's not much variety, we don't have milsims (a team tried to organize one in 2010, it failed miserably), I wish we had fields like the mall in here.. But I'm afraid that they won't last very long, costs are just too high and you'll never get the money to pay for the field rent and all that stuff We do have one cqb "field" in which a speedsofter can feel at home, but it's quite illegal to even be there (property of our Navy even if it's abandoned).. Also the people who go there to play usually have guns that shoot way too hot for our regulation, they don't have an insurance and usually they're dickheads who play just to hurt other people.. And to make them call a hit you basically have to shoot them with a real 7.62.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MILITATED Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Because all cool people wear all their gear in their bedroom, here is my loadout. There's higher quality pictures of the G28 in the Gun Picture Thread, if anyone is interested. I think my eyepro is the most exciting aspect though!

LightningCh Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 So I'm home alone and like any airsofter, I wanted to take a picture of my gear... Phone only has a 3 second timer though so this was a couple of rushed attempts, narrowed to 1 half decent photo lol. http://prntscr.com/ib2lnf My CQB kit. Ignore the MOLLE nuprol holster clip on my chest, could not be bothered to take it off for the sake of the photo lol. Wish I did take it off now though... Nice and lightweight although the hoodie can make me stupidly hot, but it's the only black long sleeves I have at the moment. The cargo pants are actually black. Despite looking blue here... Will get a better photo eventually lol Airsoft_Mr B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
