I wish, he went off like a whippet and didn’t see him for the next couple of hours ??

Airsoft cherry popped and loved it!!!! Had a great day out with my son, who loved it too. Bloody hard work though, need to shed a few pounds and get some sort of fitness (currently at sloth level lol). A big thank you to everyone at Groundzero and players who were friendly, helpful and welcoming. Can't wait to play again !!!!!!!

That's why you make sure that you have a superior pew pew.... Then you can shoot the little oik in the back as he runs away. It's surprisingly therapeutic.

According to this chart, the AK is a TM clone, so avoid it like the plague. Between the two, get the Specna, more (good) parts available.

Failing that, the matter from Black Sabbath's first four albums would tip anything over the edge. Imagine Into the Void in your rif.

I can't wait to field the LCT MC51!

Sorry i couldnt help myself... only a couple years back all the AR fappers were bitching about the likes of many other firearms with a high height over bore optic line, you know because people actually have necks, and now without any apology they are all over it like they invented it - i mean thats never heappened either ?

Remember we are talking about the land of the little people..... they may just make them a little smaller to cope with their teeny hands. SWMBO couldn't take UK nicotine patches as they were too strong. She used to get a high off them before nearly throwing up. Likewise when she was on pain killers. Her dose from the doc was for two at a time several times a day..... One would spark her out for most of the day. Cheap date ??

Team kills have "kill" right in the name.

Valet.

G&P mags are the only ones I’m aware of that I haven’t tried/tested. Once again they prob all come from the same factory anyway!! Be very weary of gas routes that are too tall, they will press up against the nozzle are really mess shit up.

Nope, leave it alone.

Well done fella. You made the jump to second childhood ? Ground zero is a big site.lot of walking but it's good exercise. Onwards and upwards ? Little tip.Get your son to carry your gear and pass it to you as you need it. Bit like a golf caddy ?? Regards

Love me some Carl memes.

I love night games, seen them work just as well as most day games to be honest. Cheaters do think it's easier to be a bastard though. I remember doing a 4 hour round journey to do a 3.5-4 hour night game at urban assault every 4 weeks for about 18 months. The good old days! Regarding that LED flashbang thing......it looks awful, been discontinued and it's the first time I have seen it which I think shows how popular it was and how well it took off. Reckon it wouldn't last many throws at all. I'd strongly recommend a standard bfg or disposable pyro if you're allowed (some sites allow them during the day, but not the evening). Torch wise, I'd recommend one of the surefire clones, you're looking at around £40-£50 all in, it mounts nicely to rifs, looks good, provide a decent amount of light, have the momentary on function etc. Think it'd serve better than a more short term version. Torches are great for CQB in the day too, dark corners etc. Bright is great, but sometimes not having the brightest torch is useful, super bright and your torch can be seen from miles away or even a few rooms away, bright enough but not the full power of the sun and it's a bit more discreet.

It's not just night games though is it, some cqb sites are pretty dark in places, half a dozen of you might be tiptoeing along a dark corridor in single file, employing all your ninja tactics, when the guy bringing up the rear turns on his super bright taclites, silhouetting the rest of you like the spice girls coming on stage at wembley?.............. BRAAAAP, your all dead.......... Thanks "Carl" you twat?

I'd forgotten how much I LOVE that album!

The best solution but completely impossible 'cos AR' would be to have the stock dropped, that way you keep low HOB for less disparity / hold over variations, an upright aware stance for active shooting, but the best bit - you could just lift up a cheek riser for prone shooting no? Or the other solution that already exists that they seem to have forgotten about is;

Bloody kids begged me to buy them a Theremin. They never even touched the thing!

Brit-tac / Flimmur LW belt & a Safariland 7378 7ts holster that I’ve spent the morning filing the shit out of to make it a better fit for the also newly purchased marui glock 17.

We don't even need to aim, for that matter

My take on the whole “high rise/low rise” argument is as airsofters why are we arguing about which optic setup is best when we are working at ranges where you don’t actually NEED optics to hit a man sized target ! ???

Sorry but all I’m getting from your posts is you appear to be defending the site owner for his own site incompetence , as @Kls77has said on several occasions the marshal chrono’ing at the start was fully informed about his mates set up for the day and passed him to play with that set up so that should be the end of it , but the owner then comes along random chrono’ing (which is perfectly acceptable , I’ve always been a fan of it) but to decide no he can’t play with that set up and telling him he has to leave the site with that set up is outrageous . In no way shape or form was the player at fault it’s ALL on the site . The one giant elephant in the room I’ve not seen mentioned yet is the actual chrono’s being used and how accurate they are ? was the gun re-chrono’ed on the same chrono or a different one ? When was the last time anyone checked them to see if there actually recording accurately or not ? As I (like many others I’m sure) am frequently quite bemused by the variation in the upper and lower FPS numbers my guns are ‘recorded’ doing at different games days I attend especially as all my guns are kept stock and never ‘up-graded’ as I’ve always been a believer in “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it !” So there shouldn’t be a particularly noticeable variation in the output once there bedded in . I do think it’s fair to say most sites get the chrono’s out on a Sunday morning check the guns and then end of day or some time during it there either chucked in a box or in to a cupboard until the next game day , hardly the way you’d want a machine used to accurately check energy output treated is it ? just saying .

Again thanks for the advice. Went for the isopropyl route for cleaning and results are evident..... Plus good learning how the rif goes together and works. Aj

Ah, Marshals' Mates' Rules?

I was questioning the veracity of their chrono.

It’s rum, always rum ?

Not sure why you compare 50rd to 20rd, stock mags are 35rd. But hey ??‍♂️ The real test is how many shots can you get from one gas fill? Aye the stock bolt deforms on the hammer reset, but only so far, it work hardens. In all honesty TM could have put a steel chip there. Non the less the stock bolt works perfectly for 10s of thousands of rounds. I do like a lighter bolt, it has many benefits. But the rollers on the G&P are unnecessary as the bolt centrally locates to the buffer part ‘A’. And with the buffer spring/tube/assembly lightly coated with Moly grease it works very slickly. RE your problem; using the stock TM mag as a pattern, line the mag catch detent up with the ProWin mag, and look for discrepancies in the height of the upper plate, feed lips and gas route. You will most likely have to file/sand some shit down.

Just got my Specna MK18 upgraded by Negative Airsoft and its an absolute machine, however, i'm not sure if i should paint it? I'd probably go with ranger green and some brown with netting over the gun for the pattern if i did. Should i do it?

but then you'd lose the straight-line recoil impulse which is why the stock is mounted that high in the first place? that's why the og ar had to have the carry handle- you needed to rise the sights that far above the bore to get your head onto them. wasn't an issue on previous rifles because straight line stocks was a new idea. funny enough, the em2 which was specifically designed for optics from the get go (unlike the ar/fal/g3/ak where optics were kinda afterthoughts) also had a carry handle to rise the optic above the receiver. you don't see it as much in other designs because the barrels are mounted lower, you look at the ak/fal/g3 they all have stuff mounted above the barrel which fills in the space where the ar carry handle would otherwise be. which is a great combo imo, you've got your risen optic but you've also got a magnified optic, and no faffing around with levers/magnifiers to switch between the 2 you just shift your face.

I guess people realized a more natural stance means less strain on your neck. The best solution was the old carryhandle optic, when prone you could still use irons comfortably, and guess what? The new fancy unity mounts have integrated irons at the same height of carryhandles (that don't really work btw because they're literally one inch apart and focusing them correctly is fucking impossible).

I've got my ad posted ? Thanks a lot chaps

Picked this up yesterday, looking forward to using it at the weekend ?

Don't look directly at things, the way the eye works makes it easier to spot things while not looking directly at them (cones and sticks, something something, I'm not a medic). That's true. It's the same principal when using a telescope or stargazing.

We only play at night during summer. You don't need a torch nor an expensive set of NVs. Yes they make life easier in some situations but for the most part you won't use them (too many retards flashing powerful torches everywhere and there is a high risk of damaging the image intensifier tube, at the same time so many retards flashing powerful torches and giving away their position). As others have said, it's a completely different game, you see with your ears, not with your eyes. So every movement is amplified by 100, a piece of kit that is loose and rattles is like running around with a bright neon sign over your head, so is stepping on a twig. You will learn how to properly walk in the woods, heel first and then the external part of your foot, this to minimise the chances of breaking twigs and leaves. Close encounters are the norm, if someone's staying still you won't notice him/her. Make sure your gear is tight, straps are tucked in and taped, silence any metal bit like a sling mount with tape, boot laces tucked in, any cable firmly secured. Also know your kit, routing through all your pouches to find a magazine isn't a good idea in general, more so when you can't see shit. If using a torch, it's good practice to move as soon as you turn it off, your opponent will be blind for a couple of seconds and will most likely fire in the direction of the light, but if you aren't there anymore, he won't hit you. Don't be tempted to use your torch against a close range bush, it'll only blind you and you won't see shit anyway. Don't be like me, use clear lenses!! Don't wear black, it's super obvious unless you are in a pitch black area, and even then green is much better. Tan/fde stands out a lot too. Don't look directly at things, the way the eye works makes it easier to spot things while not looking directly at them (cones and sticks, something something, I'm not a medic). Speaking of NV: having a set won't make you able to see everything as if you were in full daylight, you need to learn how to use them. It's very far from the perfect picture you see in movies, depending on the generation. You still look for disturbances in skylines, patches of different colours, humanoid shaped blobs. Having an IR illuminator does wonders, but only if nobody on the opposing team has nods, otherwise he'll just see the beam and know where you are. Built-in illuminators suck.

Perfect ‘The Purge’ loadout IMO ?

If DU rounds passed, you can always use matter from a neutron star.

Apparently all HPA users are cheating little gits who chrono low then crank up the PSI's. I just don't understand it. I always chrono on site chrono with my shooting weight so that I know I'm under and then stick site BB's in to make them happy. My indoor pistols I build them so that they hit about 1J with a .25 at 80psi so I can set and forget. It's aged attitudes doing this.

Unless someone is caught with a ridiculous variance in power differing from the "start of the day chrono", & assuming the tag or tie fitted by the marshals is still intact, players should be given the option to switch to an aeg platform, & if they haven't brought their own, maybe a rental offered for a small additional fee. Would surely be an option that benefits everyone ? Posted before I saw your post, spot on?

The just punting paying customers off site with no chance to switch to an alternate gun is just shite.

I'd have been shocked if it was any other site. Anzio are notorious for this. A friend of mine went to chrono with his MTW, turned all the way down, using 25's, was running about 300-305, marshall dried his teeth when chrono'ing and said he can play but if he gets pulled in game for random chrono then it's "his risk" - So it was under but still a chance of it not? Great site for buildings, cover, layout. Crap site for marshalls.

Probably so he can kick them off the site and keep their money.

Obviously he's a total cnut, but if he's that anal about HPA & gbbr, wtf doesn't he just ban them from his sites, & go aeg etc only. It'll save him all his anal anxiety on gamedays, & everybody else the aggro that he creates.

Cos he's a cunt by all accounts, search on various FB forums, YT and probably on here and you will find plenty of stories. Chalk it up to experience and don't go again. Shame as it looks a decent site.

Let me guess, Anzio? If so, the owner is well known for pulling this, hence why I have never gone there (not that I run a hot gun).

Looks like it celebrated its 15th birthday on Epstein Island.

Yeah...that's fucked.

Treated myself to something a bit more aggressive looking for one of my KC02’s Moving the guts from this rifle into it
