Picked up a absolutely minty fresh M2 red dot over on the mong for not a lot of beer tokens think it tops of the XM perfectly . ?

Need to get better pictures, but got the British trades done on my Hi Power

Not Airsoft but I think it DEFINITELY warrants posting in the gun picture thread ! as big bird said on ‘Sesame Street’ ? one of these things is not like the others !?? you just know someone’s had their arse re-bored by a rather irate armourer ? ?

Got this second hand for a very low price. Firesupport used to do this as a custom option. Its a tm recoil ak102 with lct furniture and a modified ak hop unit to allow the use of regular ak mags. It needs a new selector plate and a few screws here and there but otherwise seems in very good nick. And at the end of the day it cost me little enough that I can probably flog the lct furniture and get most of my money back!

There are no routine borders checks within the Schengen zone, but they can appear at any time Under Covid they have been reinstated by some countries under travel restrictions You can of course be stopped by the police at any time If they are aware of airsoft or paintball events in Germany or around Europe the German police do check travellers Travellingthrough a countries with airsoft guns that don’t comply with their regulations is a risk. To travel through Germany any airsoft guns carried should bear the F stamp. (They should also comply with the legislation covering the F stamp - but that’s another matter)

A few bits have arrived to finish the OpFor rig i'll be using at the next Okto in January... because who doesn't like woodland and a Czech Ushanka ?

LCT m70ab2 modular

Losing airsoft guns at German customs used to be a thing for a while if they were posted with a certain courier as they went via a German hub or some BS. So even if it was legal in the country of sale and destination country, German customs would intercept. Perhaps that worry is from that.

Who knows … just going by what they said ? Maybe we’ll be able to get an AF-UK team together….

I still think it extremely unlikely that you would be a) Pulled over and b) Have all your guns on display to warrant being worried about it. Yes, it MIGHT happen but then again so might getting hit by a bus. Police don't just randomly pull you for no reason and as there is no border......though one of my early memories is my Mum smuggling cheap meat from Holland to Germany when there was still a border LOL

Flash bang lighter Will look cool on the loadout and handy for those pyros that don’t wanna spark up the regular way (pistol to show scale) it’s pretty big ?

LOL, they've got some front, considering their past history. ?

Yes of course, i will do one in the next few day or next week.

What border? Its the EU there are no border checks. The only place you might have an issue is the ferry across to Sweden

Don't pull to much on the wires coming out of the plastic housing..they're quite delicate.... Mine didn't last long...so try not move from rifle to rifle like I did....think I pulled on the wires to much. (Couldnt' fix it either.) But still was very handy when it worked.

While I'm not pooh-poohing any excuse to buy another RIF, why not give the Firehawk a bit of love? You can upgrade the motor without touching the gearbox, then there's a plethora of things you could do inside it: mosfet, thicker wiring, gears, short stroking.

Picked up my first Hi Capa Shoots a .25 a reasonable 40-ish meters with little hop applied so hoping to get to 50m on .28’s with a fresh hop rubber / barrel combo Im used to Glock reps so this is all new to me

Sold three rifles in just two days. They were all superfluous to the collection, but the money is just going on the credit card... Which is far too grown up for me.

surprised an airsoft company isn't simply branding it as a feature "reduces reload-shot time by 0.4s"

Another AK followed me home today. One did last week too. There's another that I fancy in the classifieds section... Is there an AKs Anonymous?

Any chance of a vid about the mag ?

Current pic of the obsession.

Thanks! Had that second day today. What a blast. Was so much more fun having decent visibility as the rental are full face mesh. The goggles and mask married up almost perfect with no gap between them. Sweated my ass of and didn't fog up either as the Raiders are slim but full seal and vented. And the mesh lower was extremely comfortable and did the job perfect. Got shot in the ear at close range and heard a loud ping that no doubt would have been extremely painful if i didn't have ear pro. Also the fabric cheeks make welding to the stock very easy compared to the rental mask. So all in all very happy with my first purchases and my second game day

Got my handguard painted and setup today; It's got a 45mm spacer on the end, but it's a much better fit when I ready it on my shoulder with the stock 15mm one so I went back to that. I'm also waiting on another RAMP and a 2.5mm ModButton to go with/behind the MAWL on top like this: And the ICS MARS lower reciever (stuck in customs for 19 days today..) Changing the torch on the side to arisaka mount, but needs some work:

Depends on what side of the trigger your on ?

presumably by being a man of taste and refinement?

How the fuck is the only red dot you own a Kobra? They're like diamond encrusted hen's teeth

Double Eagle M906C... Yay! Stuck my Kobra red dot on top, because... it's the only red dot I have, but it's cool Notice how Double Eagle can't spell "Marksman" as I guess that's what they wanted to say. Either that or they're great advocates for safety on, and off the field ? First impressions... yowzers! Plugged in a 7.4v 25C lipo via the supplied Tamiya connector and it's shooting very nicely. Will look forward to trying an 11.1 in there. I've just pinged a few shots into my garden so no real idea on accuracy / range / hop etc but all good things, eh? The main thing is it just feels great, so pleased!

Start of a Multicam loadout, which I always said I wouldn't do, but hey ho. Warrior low profile plate carrier, dangler, radio pouch and cargo pack all from UK Tactical. Ferro Concepts Slingster, BFG QD loops and Esstac KYWI triple 5.56 panel, single 5.56 and single pistol pouch from Tactical Kit, and an AATV t-shirt because it helps a brother out and, well, why not? Still waiting on the FRV shooters belt (hope they've sorted their deliveries out as only read the thread after I ordered, and a TMC 354DO holster.

Postman just brought me a modbutton w/RAMP (I only bought this one for the actual RAMP, because it was cheaper than buying the RAMP alone from the US and importing it.) However it has a silly huge jack on it, and being LH I would be using my RH thumb to hit it, so I need to swap the actual modbutton for one with a small angled connector.

Just got the wiring loom built by Cage/Perun. Micro switches look to have some sort of coating over the switch (the bit that the are pushes down on) so hoping it will live up to the hype of those water submersion videos that Cage posted. It use's an electronic "fuse" so finally that shitty blade fuse in the stock is gone along with basic tone info beeps, low battery and tripped fuse. first impressions seem to be good. Anyone want an photos of any of the insides while I install it? Hight of the pinon against the bevel se t from factory ETC? On the subject of BBs, I have only ever run geoff's bbs, 0.32g Tracer and 0.36g SP. Touch wood never had a miss feed or crushed BB so wary of trying any thing else. This look interesting, a adapter that uses KWA 120 round EPM mags and still has bolt lock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEeIW41gvg4 Good resource for maintenance and disassembly https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCctYtgnvuGhNogS7wxTE1-A/videos

I think this may well end up being the official GBLS thread. After all it begins with a review and we all start chiming in ? Myself, I am resisting the temptation. But you know what temptation leads to eventually ?

I need to stop logging into this place ??? Is it a gen 2 by any chance ?

yup, I got that wrong and you are correct. on another note I seem to have acquired another one. Things worth mentioning are: any attachment on the front end of the gun have a tendency to work themself loose because of the recoil so you need to make sure you tighten them up well or use some sort of thread lock. They destroy chinese optics or at the least throw off any zero within a couple of shots. The FPS is very consistant even to the point that I thought my chrono wasn't registering shots because the results were the exact same. The standard hop/inner barrel with a FPS of 320 feels very Marui like in accuracy and range. with the slightly higher FPS than a standard Marui it reaches out accurately to 60/65 meters once the hop is set (I'm using 0.3g BB's). because the trigger has a soft uptake before the break I'm finding that I can hold the trigger on the break for long periods before snapping of a very quick first shot and because the break is solid I'm not too worried about shooting myself in the foot by accident. I'm a few full days in now with these and I really don't feel like I want to go back to TM recoils, PTW's or GBB's. I'm not saying the GBLS is a better AEG but for me the shooting experience is better.

thats not correct, you don’t have to drill the lower. It can be locked to semi with fitting of a grub screw in the gearbox. Having done a GBLS DMR for a customer it was as simple as the above grub screw and a M120 spring and it’s doing 400 FPS.

Mine just hit the 15k rounds mark with 0 issues and was bought off here second hand. I use it when I don't fancy lugging GBBR mags and accoutrements around all day. As far as recoil go's its a bit weird as its more on the forward stroke than into the shoulder but am probably spoilt with the feel of a GHK running direct fill Co2. Talk of GBLS bringing out a Pistol as well as a new rev to the mechbox so if it was me looking to buy one and I could hold off I would wait till this time next year for the new build. No issues with grip changes and the coof got the better of me so had it in bits to do a bit of waterproofing on the electronics and is no harder disassembly wise than its TM counter parts. Thanks for the write up and review mightyjebus was a good read. Obligatory bad photo

Yeah apparently the Germans have a propensity for confiscating Airsoft guns at the border ?
