@Adolf Hamster can I ask why you don't?

@Lozart because tbh it's just not me, #lederhosen4life

I have grown to really like the Gorka suits, mainly because of DayZ I think. THey look to bne for cold/wet weather though, would I cook in a set of that?

Think I'd go for the Steve McGarrett look.....

than Hawaii drag queen in a grass skirt....

but to each their own I guess - book 'em Danno

I can still go tactical if I choose - but look awesome

and I don't need a grass skirt to look local either.....

Actually I'm more like that Kamekona guy who keeps changing jobs but is always fucking eating.....

With adders and ticks prevelant in woodland. Even in the grass skirt, there will be tan combats underneath lol.

Make sure you stay hydrated and slap some lotion on your bald spots!

Hydration bladder on the back of my plate carrier and about the only bit of skin on show is my lower face that likes getting shot at apparently.

Lol, you youngsters have a while to go to catch me up ?. 

Felt my age for a couple days after last Sunday's skirmish, now wishing I had booked another for Sunday, didn't think I could cope with 2 in a row, so made other plans.

@ghostwalker @sonofsammo you crazy kids! I'll be 48 end of the month, played with a guy at Ironsight last weekend that was 64!

Happy birthday by the way @ghostwalker!

Thanks guys. I would play everyday if there was a site running everyday oh and i could actually afford to lol.

Nah and the girlfriend wouldn't want me lighting up her daughter the day before school goes back lol

If your interested in shooting real guns and live near a place why not give clay pigeon shooting a go. I went to one a few weeks ago it was a load of fun shotguns when shouldered feel so nice to shoot. Its not too bad for the money either but its only like a hour long activity or less.

Theres an air rifle shooting club nearby. Thought about trying it but then i remembered. They shoot weekday evenings when i am at work 'le sigh'. Nevermind  Just means i need to shoot more fools on sunday at airsoft...or get shot by...

I just can't make up my mind what to do. Normally wear ballistic glasses but with anything other than a cap they steam up badly.

I’ve tried sawflies and they fog as soon as I put them on, currently wearing locust fan goggles but nothing is perfect and everyone will have differing experiences 

I too use Revision Locust goggles and they're the best I've had (but not perfect). Applying antifog at the start of the day and half way through helps. Lots on the forums already about this if you want to have a search.

What's the price per on those mate? I use .28 in my trishot and currently on Blaster Devils which are great but always open to other brands. 

£10.99 plus postage. But they have a reward points system in place that makes it a little sweeter

TDC actually make really good Beebs.

Used to use them exclusively before I moved onto mostly tracer rounds.

.3s were fantastic

Are you after a recoil then? If so don't go with either the G and G or mars as that's just the simulated bolt bolt reciprocating back and forth, adds a nice sound but there's no 'recoil' there!

Recoil would be good. But Tm are out of my price range and I'm also trying to support the local shop who don't stock Tm or kwa

if your local shop don't stock the items you're after then they don't support you... why would you compromise on the product you want based upon a store's available stock? 

Can someone fill me in with what a bolt recoil is?

@steakandpotato its another brand of recoil aeg, Cheaper and harder kicking than tokyo Marui, more readily available than the kwa erg series, But it seems to be a real mixed reactions platform. which begs the question of it being worth £320-4£400

@CKinnerley has some good quality stuff for sale. Might be worth checking in to see if he has anything you may want. 

The key to building an impression kit isn't spending all your money at once. Live within your means and build it up carefully and you'll be so satisfied when it's done. Plus the big money pits, like the rig set ups, can be easily switched for replicas and still look great, TMC JPC/AVS/CPC etc are decent enough for airsoft and relatively cheap (compared to the Crye equivalents anyway). Same for the helmet, no need to spend £££s on a real opscore, just grab an FMA repro, and build off of that.

I did look through @CKinnerley stuff @Gepard alas I believe I’m a little too..... rotund. 44’ chest and 38 waist lol. Working in a chip shop is bad for your health. 

CHECK YOUR SETTINGS

DO NOT CHARGE THEM AS LIPO's !!!!

Lipo's charge up to 4.2v max charge

LiFe's charge up to 3.8v max charge

(I think but don't quote me)

you can push half a volt charge onto them

but LiPo's are 3.7v & LiFe's are 3.3v

So they need different settings in ya IMAX B6

or a B3 type with a proper LiFe output

You probably know all this but just passing it on

Don't damage your LiFe's - ergh is that suicide then ?

Don't overcharge your LiFe batteries by charging them on LiPo settings

Happy charging etc....

Don't worry and cheers for the advice Sitting Duck. They were charged on life. Fortunately the charger has a idiot proof indicator aside from the switch. Lipos settings cause all led's to turn blue and life settings cause the led's to turn green when selected. 

That is probably coz a used LiFe drops to 3v or less

On a Lipo you get a cell failure if it goes too low

Then you need to trickle charge the low LiPo

When it gets back above say 3.2v or more then

You should be able to charge the LiPo on the B6 again

Too easy to plug it in to cheapo China B3 type chargers

let it charge not knowing it will overcharge a LiFe !!!

Some B3's have a LiFe setting or so but not all/most

B6 is a bit of learning curve coz you edit the LiPo settings

Or make up your custom one

But I "think" it still needs to toggle Lipo to LiFe in settings

(bit of a faff tbh)

IMHO - I never found the LiFe THAT bigger difference

compared to using a good 25c or 30c 7.4v LiPo

maybe in stock guns but never noticed much on a tweaked gun

Supposed to be the ideal stop gap between 7.4v & 11.1v

Bought 9.9v for FireHawk - bloody tight fit in stock tube

Then said sod it & chucked fixed stubby stock & cheap block 7.4v

Somewhere I got a monster 4000mah or something for full stock

Not that impressed so not bothered to buy again

But it might work out OK for you in your gun

Just watch your charge settings

(and go deans if you can solder properly)
