Love the police box, what scale is it? I could do with a 1:1 for the back garden, it would alleviate the problem of only having a toilet upstairs and not needing to build an extension.

UK Tactical have a 10% discount on all products until midnight 30 September - discount code ZOMBIE10

Great, that makes 3 of us there, almost an AF-UK social event

The weather looks good for Sunday so I am going to bake in my Fast Helmet. Do not have a hat, and a baseball cap does not sit on my Dye i4 face mask. More importantly I do have a Camelbak so will stay hydrated. Yes, I aim to be therefor 0900 hrs.

My HK416 is 10" (not keen on the barrel extension) and was fine in The Mall (where I have only played once so no expert there) but I like the idea of the Kurz as a secondary weapon. It is only the fact of needing different magazines that stops me getting one next instead of a pistol.

It is okay as my BBs already have wax on them (apparently) but prefer playing in a more natural environment

I don't know about that, I love spending time in some bush! And a sudden entry into a rear passage, just to see the surprise on her face. Back to airsoft... MP5 or MP5K work well at the Mall.

I have the same issue at home, using both my desktop and laptop on Windows7 and IE. No quote or multi quote function, and even more annoying is that I am unable to copy and paste any text. When using an ipad at work, then I experience no issues.

Latest UK Tactical discount, £50 off a WAS Recon Plate Carrier (RPC) until midnight Wednesday 30 September. So £69.95 instead of £119.95

Just read the 4 page article in Airsoft Action (November edition) about the Sandpit. Good timing. It had a good write-up, although all sites in magazine do tend to. I did take on board the carrying of flapjacks, so have placed several in a spare pouch ready for the energy boost.

Just tried to look at the link. Page is unavailable and says that the link is broken or has been removed

Second that. Good range of quality kit that is fully adjustable.

Let us know how you get on. It is good to see another small business operating in the UK.

I have an AEG that does not make that much of a motor whine (which I also dislike) due to the recoil that has a nice solid 'thunk' sound. Although it does not have the same kick or sound as a GBBR gun, it is not bad for an electric gun. However, it is an equivalent price to a GBBR.

Yes I do have good boots, hiking and an old pair from Afghan, plus blister kit. If I get geographically challenged then it will become a recce of the area. I expect the scenarios this Sunday will force players along set routes and choke points. Looking forward to it, just hope no rain.

Kit all depends on your budget and preferences. I like UK Tactical, very good service and discount offers (http://www.uktactical.com) and in particular the Warrior Assault System.

Yes, sod's law. So what is the Sandpit like? I have seen some youtube videos and it looks an interesting site to play.

Know what you mean about wanting use your own RIF, I missed out on some skirmish days in the summer because I did not want a rental gun. Regret that a little now because I could have had a few more days out.

And discuss the virtues of milsim v skirmishes . Must remember to pack my sandbag to collect up all those used BBs too

UCAP Sandpit is holding an Arnhem inspired event on Sunday 27 September. According to their facebook page: a game very loosely based on Operation Market Garden aka "a bridge too far"... Plenty of mortars and big bangs... hope to have a Russian tank alongside 432 APC, Saracen, and WMIK. Attacking team split into start positions to capture vital crossroads in middle of 'Arnpit'. I shall be going, and it will be my first time at the Sandpit. No booking necessary, just rock up. May see some of you there. www.ucap.co.uk/ucap-airsoft-venues/ucap-sandpit-venue

Speak for yourself, at my age I tend to just walk around in the woods . You go first, I'll cover you.

Needed a sling and saw a video on YouTube for the Irene Adaptive Sling (IAS) - it is a 1 point to 2 point sling that has mash hooks (which I find much easier to fit on sling mounts). It cost $52.90 so about £34 (including P&P) from a US supplier Command Airsoft Technologies on eBay, had to email them to get the shipping price for the UK. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221296436186

Real life First Person Shooter - entertaining and gratuitous Call of Duty style action. I expect some airsoft players imagine this very scene www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWURz6HvTVw

If you are buying the FMA fast helmet, they come with plenty of pads to adjust to fit. I removed a couple as not needed. The rear dial to adjust fitting is really good. I have just purchased a new one from Airsoft Peak for £34.81 (18% discount on this forum today), although eBay maybe a few pounds cheaper. This will be my second FMA Fast helmet, and I plan to remove some of the internal front padding to tailor fit my Dye Precision i4 mask.
