  1. @Rogerborg - Has Julian Clary hacked your account? ?
  2. I see sniping as essentially playing airsoft on "hard mode".....ie not necessarily to gain an advantage in range etc but to get more satisfaction from every shot that hits, because they are in fact at a fire power disadvantage. Obviously rocking a giant, heavy bright blue thing, which I would assume performs terribly, just puts the user at every possible disadvantage and as is evident leads to extreme frustration. Especially so if they are a young and/or a new player and have Novritsch or KM etc level expectations
  3. A quick Google brings these up for £120. Two tone reduces the price for most and not sure how the seller intends to post the £3.50 smoke. The scope adds very little value. I fear this person rather than being a "dreamer" is another victim of the BBGun.com types.
  4. Classic mate, haha. I picked it up used but still in decent condition and shooting 346fps. Obviously not going to be my go-to skirmish gun but a lovely piece in general.
  5. I haven't settled on a particular weight. I could hop 0.4's without issue but as you say, there doesn't seem much point at the ranges I'll use this. There are 0.3's in that drum because I wanted to use them up. I've found the drum does bump up the FPS, think it's filled with Abbey Predator atm.
  6. FPS aside, I would highly recommend the hop unit. I love that I can have not enough hop, two clicks up too much, one click down perfect.
  7. Just a 150mm maple leaf crazy jet, 50 degree flamingo bucking and the CNC wheel adjustable hop unit.
  8. God I love this thing. 340fps, 25rps and feeds like a dream... VID_20210808_123131.mp4
  9. Actually my main objection is the four questions marks in a row. That right there, tells you everything you need to know about a person.
  10. You're not responsible for the actions of others.
  11. @Rogerborg I tried to be nice and PM them to that effect. This is the response I got:
  12. Always read the item description VERY carefully ?

      Haha. I was just reaching for me purse until I read the last line.

      @Shamal - It's OK, I'll look after you.

  13. Just in case you didn't know, the Secret Service rely on Elite Force Airsoft guns to protect the President?

      Z Nation is my guilty zombie pleasure.  Completely daft, increasingly silly, but they always tried for something fresh.

       

      Missy Pyle in the "RoZwell" episode about Area 51 zombie aliens (played by Doug Jones!)  was sheer joy.

       

      And then it gave us Black Summer which was almost the exact opposite, super intense and serious, it actually put the horror back into survival.

       

      I can forgive it a lot, even Elite Force.

      @Rogerborg - I'm surprised anyone else has really heard of it, let alone watched it. Definitely some interesting concepts in with the silliness too. I can't recall another film or series which had a character become a zombie whisperer.

      Although as I said to my friend, you know a series has "jumped the shark" when Henry Rollins shows up. It was the same with Sons of Anarchy!

      @Rogerborg Is Black Summer worth sticking with?  I tried it and managed to get a couple episodes into season 1 but I found it to be pretty terrible.

  14. "Just because you wasted three mags on me, doesn't mean you hit me"

     

    From a recent Dutch the Hooligan video and a line I'm going to have to start using!

      @Steveocee - I genuinely wish that was the case but doesn't seem like people are much interested in that. The airsoft videos which seem to pull the biggest numbers on youtube, are drama in a game and those which spend thousands on mystery boxes.

       

      Case in point, this video:

      4.2 million views of a small kid getting hurt and likely never wanting to ever play our sport again. This disappoints me on so many levels.

  15. This thread is really making me want to keep my 4.3 and put all these bits on it but £170 for a frame and £200 for a grip! ? I've also just picked up a Gold Match and very tempted to send it to Mike Cripps, so he can fit a black AM Limcat slide with Gold enameling etc. How much would that negatively impact the cooldown side of things though?
  16. If I open an iwholesale account and make a website, then never actually communicate with my customers, can I call myself an airsoft shop? Seems to work for many!

      Sounds about right , does seem the larger and more well known the retailer gets the less they care about there customers ?

  17. Anyone need a GBBR? I'm thinking £300 posted seems fair.

      @alxndrhll - Not fishing, think of me as more of a Pied Piper figure!

      @Rogerborg - You don't have a licence? No problem, just promise not to take it to any of the posh supermarkets.

      @strykerles - For an extra £150 I'll include a bottle of 0.12g bulldog BB's and half a can of Calor gas.

      @Cr0-Magnon that's a bargain, are they yellow bbs?

      Can you clarify if Sainsbury is a posh supermarket, or does it just keep the scum out of Waitrose?

  18. I've noticed something about those 4.3 Limcat slides which is going to bother me. They have 9mm markings and my Guarder outer barrel .45. Does anyone make an outer barrel with 9mm markings?
  19. I'm not sure if this is an old design or one that's coming soon but I like it a lot. I think it'd go well with the dual Stainless chassis and I already have an STI grip on order.
  20. Seeing as this is basically a Hi Capa build thread now....has anyone done something interesting with a 4.3? Just bought a 4.3 Dual Stainless but starting to regret it as there doesn't seem that many slide options. So looking for inspiration.
  21. I quite like the top half but the two halves don't blend as nicely as the AAP. From what I've seen the most accurate (to real steal) version will be the one with a 1911 lower, however that should also be the worst performer. Using an antiquated hop system is just an inexcusable cost cutting measure.
  22. I don't actually like adding things to this thread, especially those from this site. However I did have to laugh at "top of the range" when silver is the same price as any of the other colour options. Also £131.94 delivered from Patrol Base (it's actually the only colour they have in stock) or £121.50 second hand....
  23. Gonna wear my (just don't give) AFUK hat tomorrow. If anyone asks me my username, I'm going to tell them it's @Rogerborg and act like an arsehole all day.

      @Shamal - Damn, hadn't thought about that. I don't even have a sporran to keep my BB's in. I would have said I was you but I don't have enough Dad jokes in my repertoire for it to believable ?

      Wow, what did I do to deserve that?

       

      I mean, other than acting like an arsehole all day, every day.
