I had a JG Aug but it felt a bit creaky/cheap to me. I love an Aug but I wasn't keen on that one. I didn't realise there was a sports and pro line. My guess is I had the cheaper sports line one. Army armament make an Aug too. I know they are a budget brand but worth a mention.

Oops! Thank you. Then yes a fair price

Optics warehouse have a very similar one at around £480 at the moment (on sale). https://www.opticswarehouse.co.uk/vortex-strike-eagle-1-8x24-ar-bdc3-moa-riflescope-se-1824-2 My guess is it's a different reticle to yours. If this is a fair equivalent to yours you may need to go touch lower.

Two-tone paint removal "When 2 become 1"
Daveoc33 replied to RostokMcSpoons's topic in General Discussion
Acetone did not work nicely with a cyma m14 stock I had - thankfully I was testing on a non visible bit of the stock. Worked fine on other plastic things though. I suppose it depends on the solvent in the paint used and the specific type of plastic. -
https://jdairsoft.net/cart/sale £250 for some E&L essential aks. Perhaps not a bargain but a bit of money off a decent ak.

Has anyone had any joy upgrading and running a TM Vsr-one? I know that out of the box they are running around 1 joule and you'd obviously was it at around 2 joules to make it competitive. I love the look of them but I remember that upgrading them not as simple as it is with a vsr10. I'm just interested to hear any successes/failures people have had with these. I have done a search on here but there seems to be very little on them. Please point me to the right place if this has already been discussed. Cheers!

2 questions if that's OK... I bought a 2nd hand g&g g96 (gas L96 sniper rifle) and its shooting low fps (360fps green gas, 0.2g bb). Does it have an npas or similar? Google fails to say yes/no on this but there not much info on this rifle. 2nd question, it came with this part in the box, what is this part? I've found a parts diagram but I can see this bit in it.
-
Thank you. I'll see if I can give it a proper check.
-
Cheers for having a look! Yes it could have been done a bit neater,but it feels solid enough. I'd be pleased with £50 (it's more than I thought). If I can test it and it does work, how much would it be worth then, do you think? I can check it feeds without an hpa rig by just putting the mag in and cocking the rifle. Looking at the cost of parts new it's £50 for the mag, £50 for the drum, £20 for the hose. So based on that £80 working maybe?

I bought a 2nd hand TM MTR16 last week and it came with this home made HPA drum mag. I can't test it myself but I've been told it works fine (by the shop). It's a pull chord drum mag with an MWS short mag merged with it. Any idea how much its worth?

Posting Airsoft kit, guns, and accessories
Daveoc33 replied to 1967PF44's topic in General Discussion
Thanks for the info OP. People in the post office often don't know that sending guns is allowed but under some extra conditions since there's a picture of a gun on their prohibited items poster. This is the parcel force page that explains the rules around it and I've had to show it to the person working at the post office on occasion. https://www.parcelforce.com/help-and-advice/sending/prohibitions-and-restrictions It currently says: Arms and Ammunition - low powered air weapons Low-powered air weapons (air rifles, air guns and air pistols), together with lead pellets and other airgun and airsoft projectiles, can be sent but are subject to the following conditions: These items must be sent on an express48 service only These items must be sent via the Post Office only, and presented at the counter Enhanced compensation cover is not available -

I used a runcam 3 on a drone I used to own. No complaints about it from me but I've never owned a gopro so I can't tell you if it was better or worse. YouTube says not as good but decent for the money. I was happy with the footage and the camera took many crashes in its stride and kept working.

I forgot about the redwolf one. It was the RWA nighthawk GRP and the was around the £1000 mark. It does explain the price really. It'll be interesting to see what else is revealed about the GBLS 1911 over the coming months.
-
Yeah, I'm not sure. My kwc definitely doesn't have it. I can't remember if my TM does or doesn't.

There's been noises of this on Facebook etc for a while. It's now available for preorder. I was hoping for an innovative aep similar to their Das but this looks like a gas blowback. Full stainless steel and a pre order from Korea will set you back £800ish (1,250,000 won). The main unique thing about it seems to be a "half cock safety device" which I'm guessing is the hammer half cocked. It comes with either markings, no markings, or as a disassembled kit. I'm not clear what makes this better than a TM with a guarder kit but here some translated details from a website. Pre-sale period (Senior mother itself): September 30th ~ October 24th, 2022 1 additional magazine provided with advance reservation Laser marking can be done at no additional cost to the customer who requested it. Full Steel CNC Manufacturing Some details such as hammer, slide stop, and hammer spring housing will be modified and shipped. Maximize details such as reproduction of the half-cock safety device for the first time in Airsoft Differentiated sales with a new magazine design that was not previously available 1) Materials ( mainly main parts ) - All steel parts are applied (CNC machining ) - Inner barrel ( manufactured by Lambda, Japan ), trigger bar , special screw , and special pin are stainless steel - Part of cylinder and piston are aluminum (AL7075 T6) - Magazine lining and grip apply polymer ( mil-spec polymer specification ) 2) Exterior finishing post-treatment method - Steel parts apply parka -rise - There are rumors of Teflon coating, but Teflon coating is not applied to the product. ( The development of DuPont's Teflon coating was in the 1950s , and the time it was applied to firearms was mainly in the 1970s during the Vietnam War, so not applying it to this product is a testament to the high degree of perfection ) 3) Challenge kit delivery status - Frame , slide , out-barrel and chamber assembly , only 3 available before coloring - The rest of the parts are provided in a state where all processes have been completed as an assembly ( assembly ) for each part. - Supplied with heat treatment and sanding - For sanding , the pressure of 100 times used for sanding has a grainy feeling, but the roughness of the surface roughness is expected to be provided at a low level. Due to the nature of the challenge kit, separate production standards are applied - This product is produced close to the real illumination by applying 6 bars of pressure to No. 100 gold thread .

I was pleasantly surprised by my vfc gen 4 glock 19. Very snappy with crisp trigger break and the range and accuracy running it stock was surprisingly good. I know what you mean about bits breaking but parts are available from wgcshop and redwolf (and probably a few others too). I don't have a TM G19 but I definitely prefer this to my tm g18c and we g17. Does a TM foliage warrior could as a compact? Mine is outstanding. Similar size to a g19

Possibly not what you're after but if you want to sell the lot in one go action hobbies seem to do a lot of bulk buys. They are in Milton Keynes too so not too far from you: https://www.actionhobbies.co.uk/used-kit-buying-and-recycling/ I dread to think how much you'd be losing selling to a retailer though. There are some lovely RIFs in your collection.
-
Thank you! Wow that's expensive. I was after a TM part because I was expecting to be cheaper than the guarder. Fire support have the TM frames out of stock at £10 a pop. But maybe that price is from years ago. If that's the going rate I'll probably be better off with a guarder
-
Where do people go for original TM replacement parts? I'm trying to find a TM g18c frame but everywhere sells guarder or aftermarket frames, but nowhere sells TM ones. Or am I drawing a blank because of trademark issues? Cheers

Fubar Bundy sell stuff on your behalf on a commission basis. It's possible other shops would do this. Can't hurt to ask your local shops.
-
Good on you for putting this together. To me it looks like a home brew of the attacksense system but with servos to indicate a target to shoot instead of LEDs. I'm not sure how many game modes you could have given the setup but the obvious ones are just random targets in sequence or random simultaneous targets. Increasing the difficulty with more random targets or less time to shoot the presented targets. Good luck to you! And I hope you don't shoot the raspberry pi during testing

This is a decent hop rubber and nub: https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/hop-up-buckings-nubs/maple-leaf-macaron-60-nub Can't comment on barrels as I normally just switch the rubber and leave it at that. Its such a cheap and effective upgrade.

Optics warehouse has 10% off with code QUEEN10. They sell vortex stuff there and they seem to be the cheapest for that even without the discount. Someone correct me if I'm wrong
