Ahem?.......... Doesn't look like a tm breacher to me ? Mine looks like this

Those weren't legitimate defences, but I suspect given the historical lack of prosecutions with regards to airsoft vs vcra, some retailers have chosen to move their own goalposts to suit themselves, likely they feel it's an acceptable risk given the economic pressures most are facing.

Sounds fine to me ?

Personally I disagree with sending any kit, the Ukrainian military has its own equipment (as well as what nato has supplied), the idea of sending pc's etc., irrespective of the brands, will be pointless if there's no armour to put in it. As for mag carrying, better of with a decent quality satchel or similar, the only real hope for the untrained volunteer masses will be harassment & interdiction, essentially hit & run, traditionally in history those that operate in this manner, the ability to blend in to the population afterwards will make more of a difference than just looking the part. Harsh when we're discussing "charitable donations" but true unfortunately ?

Glennie is in the north, the op is talking about sending it to Eire, the south. Personally I'd be reluctant to ship to either areas ?

Thanks for the link mate, I quite like the look of the P2 & MH1 sights too, might have to go shopping?

I've got lotsa project bits, might have to use the leftovers to throw together something outrageous, something Liberace would be proud to own ?

I like both?

C'mon @Druid799, let's see all the Hello Kitty stuff?

This 1000%, if he was anywhere near me I'd pay him a visit just to read him his "horoscope" ?

I have numerous lids for myself & if fams turn out, but generally only use them for cqb, for example the ucap tunnels nr Portsmouth are a perfect example where imho helmets are a necessity, curve nissen walls with occasional pipework, all of which is in the dark, for anyone 6ft+ bumps on the head are almost guaranteed. ?

Spend the extra & get the TM, even s/h you'll notice the difference ?

As has been pointed out, Airsoft ranges & accuracy is not comparative to real steel, so x3 should be more than ample, but maybe consider a fixed single unit as opposed to the red dot/magnifier combo, if your after accuracy then the single fixed unit will hold its zero much better than a unit that's continually moved up & down, plus if your planning on exploiting the max power in a dmr setup, also consider that most sites operate a med (minimum engagement distance), that would likely make your red dot ineffective.

? @Druid799 will be along shortly to tear you a new one, he's just got to tuck his sheep in first?

DA FUQ!!! ?‍?, so once Airsoft Cardiff have "trained" us lol, wtf are we gonna defend our families with from the invading russki hordes, cos I don't think my current Airsoft gats are gonna cut it ?. That's the most stupid statement I've literally EVER heard in airsoft, is Airsoft Cardiff run by retarded 14yo walts ffs?

LOL, I'm looking at it & thinking "it looks okay ?", the I realised its not a camo paintjob ?

Wtf, what utter mongs, I never like to see Airsoft sites go to the wall, but in this 0instance it would be well deserved. I hope players show their feelings by not just boycotting the event, but the site in general from now on. ?

I think we're already saying that now, in fact I've been saying it for years, he's always been a "wrong un"

Me neither, never had the slightest interest in their kit. And thinking about it, yeah it'd be pretty shit for Airsoft in general if the press got hold of pics of players in Russian loadouts at the moment, you can imagine the spin they'd put on it.

While I see the concerns, I also have absolutely no misconceptions about what we do, we play dress up pew pew games, it's not real & generally only the hardcore snowflakes are likely to be offended by a loadout. Me personally, I know feck all about ruski loadouts, so other than those mental lids that some players are using, I wouldn't know the difference anyway.
