  1. Won't fit None of those will fit You need one of these https://cop9gun.com/ecop9/en/jinggong-spares/203-jinggong-m5k-stock-cover.html
  2. Absolutely staged. Will seemingly has a whole team to manage his social media and do these cringe little videos with massive production value and editing etc.
  3. Yes, you can legally buy a RIF from the classifieds here if you're over 18 but it is on the seller to check you have a reason for owning a RIF as they are the party that would potentially get in trouble. If you try and buy a RIF from here, the seller will ask for you to provide a defence, be it UKARA etc. You've admitted you want a RIF for target shooting and plinking which are not justified uses for owning a RIF. Your options are IFs or airguns.
  4. Well, you pretty much have really as no responsible seller will sell you a RIF knowing you're not going to skirmish with it. I imagine if you pay a little extra, a seller will two tone a RIF for you.
  5. I've had similar. I can only assume that that's the smallest box UPS do.
  6. I'd send them back and the retailer would cover all costs. Bloody cheeky of them.
  7. Try Luke at Negative Airsoft. I believe he has a small supply of a limited number of parts for Bolt MP5s.
  8. So differentiating between IF and RIF only exists within the VCRA. Got it.
  9. Pretty much all of my RIFs have come from HK or Japan. If you have a defence, just import yourself. Just know how much you're likely to pay in fees and the rest is just like ordering from a UK retailer 99% of the time.
  10. Odd they say "pleaded guilty to possessing an imitation firearm with intent to cause fear." Not a realistic imitation firearm.
  11. Just use a bandage chopped to a suitable length. I've also used a sock cut down the sides to double the length. Either simply tied to your arm is sufficient at Battlesims. All it is is an indicator you've been shot.
  12. Yup. The Antikythera mechanism.
  13. How much did you pay for the MP5K if you don't mind me asking as I have one kind of new in box I'm planning on selling soon. It would be good to get an idea of the price for a new one.
  14. Pretty sure Zero In is running on one of these
  15. 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.
  16. Lots of blank firers used at games likes MSW in the US. Always used responsibly from the footage I've seen. They're treated as a LARP element with a significant MED. I think they add massively to the vibe and would be fine with them.
  17. Oh. Perhaps I'm making some assumptions on general knowledge. On film sets, guns are actually pointed slightly off of actors to negate any armourer failings such as this scenario but mainly to avoid any small amount of debris from the blanks hitting actors. Then camera angles do the rest and make it seem like everything is lined up.
  18. He pointed a firearm at someone and pulled the trigger. You just don't do that. Yes, even with a supposed "cold gun", even on a film set. I don't see how anyone can defend that. Sure, he didn't prep the gun and perhaps he's not legally obligated to check it but he broke a firearm safety rule and someone died. He is absolutely partially to blame.
  19. Yeah, lots of productions use airsoft in place of blank firers for various reasons. Be it cost, safety etc. You can generally tell because it looks absolute shite. They often don't bother to simulate case ejection and muzzle flashes look like crap. Though it can be done fairly well if people know what they're doing. I seem to recall Stargate SG-1 looking pretty OK for the time. Imo, no dummy/airsoft guns will ever replace proper blank firing adapted guns on screen. They just don't have the presence. Imagine Heat shot with airsoft guns. It just wouldn't have the same impact. Anyway, regarding Alec Baldwin being a murderer, lots of rumours circulating it was an actual firearm with a live round. Quite what the fuck live rounds and non blank fire adapted firearms are doing on a film set, I don't know. I'm hearing lots of reports of staff walking out over safety concerns in general as well as firearms safety concerns from previous incidents on set. I gather some of these staff were replaced with people that were perhaps not qualified to replace who they did. Whatever happened, it's a big shit show and some people are going to be in a lot of trouble. Perhaps if Baldwin wasn't so rabidly anti gun, he might know the basics of firearms safety...I couldn't imagine pointing even a blank firer at someone I wasn't willing to injure. Though the memes coming out of this are quite entertaining. (At Baldwin's expense of course. Not the poor people he shot)
  20. Yeah. I'm calling BS. Everyone, keep rocketdogbert away from your MP5s if he's holding a can of lighter fluid. He might try and force his claim into reality ?
  21. Sounds like someone's pulling your leg
  22. I'm starting to suspect whatever retailer advised rocketdogbert of this issue might perhaps be responsible by either messing up a battery conversion or OK'ing the use of higher rated batteries and is now trying to do damage control/passing the buck. The fact that no other retailer has heard of any issues and now TM coming back with the response above and their quickness with dealing with the MK46 issue...Very suss.
  23. Are you at liberty to say which dealer? As it seems at least a few UK dealers haven't heard anything about this.
  24. Nothing on their site either. If there is a genuine recall, they're certainly not trying very hard to get the word out.
  25. Tread carefully with AsiaAirsoft
