  1. The price! Possibly the ultimate wanker gun.
  2. Just to support what Speedbird has said, I have a home built micro M4 with a shorter barrel than yours and a 1/2 cylinder with an extended hole making it about a 40% cylinder; it shoots at about 1.03J, has good range and is quiet. I would choose AK2M4’s red omega nub over the Airsoft Pro one.
  3. How? Explain the physics that supports that statement. I also think you mean energy rather than power. Around 313FPS What is "Joule power"? Joules are a unit of measurement of energy, not power.
  4. YouTube!
  5. They also list lower joule limits for anything over 0.20g than they do for 0.20g, which is bizarre.
  6. Anzio have had lower power limits for HPA for a while; overall, their FPs limits do not make much sense.
  7. I have had success with the Chilun V2.0; it is a switch based ETU so you take your chances on its longevity. It does require minor modifications to most gearboxes.
  8. It isn't particularly difficult to install. What you have in the G&Gs is irrelevant unless you want to try to install a G&G ETU and Perun ETU++ in the SA, which may or may not work and would be a very expensive approach.
  9. Despite a terrible weather forecast, I decided to go to Tower Airsoft in Essex today for a third successive weekend of airsoft, as I am unlikely to be able to play for at least the next two, and possibly three or four, weekends due to rehearsals, a festival set and, weather dependent, hiking on Dartmoor. As the lad had set off for the Helmut-Schmidt-Universität/Universität der Bundeswehr Hamburg for a week of playing with G36s and other interesting activities, I was on my own this time. Despite the site not usually playing host to HPA users, attendance was once again low, with a group of rentals forming a significant percentage of those present. However, in true Tower style, the games suited the numbers present and a good day was had. The rentals turned out to be good players and the teams were well balanced, with the times for two legged games being almost identical. One "amusing" incident related to the site's 30m minimum engagement distance for full auto. While defending the village in one game, I was hit by a short full auto burst from about 4m; when I mentioned the rule to the player, he replied that it wasn't full auto as it was a three round burst; the marshal "had a word". The forecast heavy rain and strong wind failed to put in an appearance, which was a bonus. Weapons used: CYMA/LCT/real steel MPiKM Golden Eagle AMD-65 Milbro Classic M1911 The MPiKM has been running low on power for a while; a quick strip down this evening revealed that the piston head O ring was no longer sealing. It is now back up to power:).
  10. Yes, that does the job as well.
  11. Yep! It was what the school cadet force had.
  12. It is locked to semi unless you buy the full auto selector.
  13. Still recovering from finding out the hard way! Mind you, I started off with 37 pattern.
  14. Just don't let the 58 pattern webbing get wet!
  15. I doubt that anyone you meet at an airsoft site would find it offensive. However, in some Muslim traditions green ones are worn by those who are regarded as descendants of the Prophet and the Imam Ali. I wouldn’t worry about it.
  16. Different coloured keffiyehs were used to indicate allegiance to Fatah and the PFLP; wearing the wrong one in the wrong place at the wrong time was potentially a life shortening mistake.
  17. Mine gets a regular run out; it works well now that I have reworked the internals, including modifying a standard steel COL to replace the original soft cheese one.
  18. The thought never crossed my mind. ??
  19. The classic refrain of every conspiracy theorist, flat earther, young earther, creationist or whatever,
  20. I picked up a welt like on Sunday; there were no HPAs at the site. You probably should take up another hobby; airsoft seems to cause you nothing but stress and angst.
  21. I would not buy one; the lad and I had one each and they are a bit crap. They are very inconsistent, the hop unit is crap and the only available upgrade is a pretty average hop rubber. I am still using mine while deciding what to get to replace it.
  22. £11.99 minus £9.00 wholesale = £2.99 profit. Take off the contribution to general costs and they are not exactly ripping off the punters, are they? However, it does seem a heck of a lot for a patch.
  23. The vast majority of G&G ETUs do not like anything lower than 11.1v, although the lad had one that ran happily on 7.4v. As concretesnail suggests, switching the board, which is easily accessible in the stock, to a Perun ETU++ will enable you to run on 7.4v or 9.9v and give you a few funky options such as precocking and a wider selection of fire selector options.
  24. As someone who does a lot of hiking, I have never really understood the need for expensive hiking trousers; a pair of flecktarn shorts or DPM trousers do the job perfectly well. Most hiking clothing is more about marketing than need.
