So the Modify barrel gave me an extra 25fps, sorted!

What’s the difference between a Chickpea and a Lentle I wouldn’t pay £50 for a Lentle on my chest

Anyone see on the news (BBC in this case). The part where they showed a market stall selling ‘military’ items in Afghanistan, most shopping were Taliban fighters, hoping for Real Steel American parts, sadly they were Chinese clones…. Most I guess similar to what we use at the weekends ????

AAP01 hpa adapter. The plastic leaked like a shiv so it got a few coats of cerakote.

Email should be better because customers and businesses need a record of conversations and agreements.

Because in this day and age a lot of people don’t like confrontation, I’ve learnt this over the years in business that indeed you need to talk to people, but for some this is a difficult skill set. Information is everything, and if you are not certain you are right, or if you even know your rights regardless it makes it very hard to have the confidence to have a direct conversation ‘on the spot’. Mail has always allowed people the opportunity for a considered enquiry/answer.

It’s the JG version , bought it before all this Brexit bollocks kicked in and compared to today’s prices it was a steal. So glad I did at the time ?

With MP5's now starting to be delivered into the UK I thought it would be good to start of thread of people who have got or are wanting to buy the Tokyo Marui MP5 NGRS. Something I saw on Facebook today was that RS handguards fit perfect onto the gun without any modification. RS stocks however will not fit however without modification. Below is a link to the Facebook post for people wanting more information https://www.facebook.com/groups/TMInfoGroup/permalink/1218857961950989/

Just seen on Facebook that someone has created an SD6 and I think it belongs to @SonnyMP5 I will let him share the photos ?

Reciever mark 1 unfortunately started developing some pretty bad cracks so I decided to ditch it, switch steels and try again. Second one went much more smoothly. Given that I get all my steel as spares and offcuts from a factory I dont necesarrily know what im working with until I start so these things happen. Needs a lot of smoothing out but the sides are level, the angles are mostly 90 degrees and Its all looking pretty good. Lower shoud be a lot easier as its 1 straight box.

Well after a year and a half away from the sport, looks like I'll soon be able to jump back in. Any tips for making sure my kit is still in working order by the time I'm able to play (probably Jan 2022)? I've been charging batterys and firing off a mag or two for the AEGs and then just kept the GBB mags up with some gas.

That's an astonishing question and statement. Phoning interrupts people and stops them doing what they were doing, i.e. helping other customers. Answering emails can be done in a block, more efficiently, while you're ready to deal with them. Then you're rewarding your highest cost, most demanding customers. Why not reward the ones who are helping you out instead?

Just to update I got my plate carrier setup from Poland delivery by UPS and I was thinking about long delays and extra charges. Only took over a week and no extra charges on 269 order,I already paid VAT from the shop though.

An extremely convincing argument, a heavy defence of the seller that isnt remotely suspicious even with the lack of evidence beyond "looks legit to me bruv" and loyal devotion to spreading the word. On the other hand we have the guy who has a long history on this board of buying both legit real optics and chinese clones, but that doesnt mean anything.....

As someone who has worked in retail before and now looks after global businesses. Why do people always email when there is an issue? Has never made sense to me. Pick up the damn phone and speak to a human. Then if you don't get the answer you want, you can give them shit over the phone. We put all emails and tickets raised through our PSA system to the lowest priority, because if its not important enough to call, then they can wait until we get to it. If they call we start on the resolution there and then.

Several test prints later, and a few changes were made. The screw hole has been enlarged for the bolt to pass clean through the base, and halfway into the shell. This makes it flush inside the assembly and actually serves as a pin between all 4 parts. I have also decreased the outer sides of the Inner parts by .02" all around (.5mm), as it would require a pneumatic press to actually get the two inner halves into the shell. Just the cm or so I shoved them together to test the fitment took a hammer to remove. So far I have 2 of the latest bases done, a possible "production" print of the shell done (I have three options to print it: First, I can do it with the top horizontal, and support material as a wedge. This is what I did for the shell I have printed. It worked, but did have some errors along the base and had to be sanded flat. Testing with the inner parts after theyre done will determine if this is a problem. Its also the longest print - at 80% speed it takes a whopping 14 hours: Second is to print it with no supports at the bottom, leaving the top as a slant. This has the plus of ensuring a flat base, but gives a layered top: Third is to print on its side. This is the fastest method at only 8 hours and change at 100% (approx 12 hours at 80%), but does use the most material and cost the most. To be fair its about 3 Euros per shell vs the 2.70 Euros or so if printed in either vertical orientation, so not exactly an important difference. Cleaning all that support material out is gonna be a PITA though, and itll leave the face-down side a different texture due to my textured print bed. ), and I am working on printing the two inner halves now. Heres what it looks like mostly assembled, still missing the two inner halves:

Just ordered a TDC kit from Airtac. Hopefully that will arrive and I can get it fitted before I goto Leicester Gaol later this month. As we all know the hop is a ball bag to adjust with a stock and rail attached!

TM 1911

Just gave mine its once a year deep clean.

First third prototype casing assembled. Not had chance to wire it up yet to test the fan's performance. If airflow is sufficient (it might not be - it's a 5V 4020 fan that was sent to me in error, I could end up with a 12v 50mm fan yet), I'll integrate a battery and add loops to the main body for bungee retention to the Arc rail.

Apparently this goes against faceache community standards

Soooo a long while (3 or 4 years ago) back I managed to get a 2nd l85 cheap.... so I did a thing ??? (had it finished 3 years now, mixed ICS and 3d printed parts etc)

Just tried to get through to Patrol Base on the phone and quickly hung up after hearing "You are currently caller number eleven in the queue"..... In other news, I'm excited to finally be trying Driver Wood this Sunday!
