Had this for years, not something I'm likely to use. Is this something anyone on here would be interested in? If so, how much is it likely to be worth please? Just realised I put tomorrow's date on it, hope that doesn't break the rule as I've just put it back in the attic and put the ladder away. Thanks.

Cheers mate, been a great week. Brought 2 great rifs both off two great lads, both called Sam from here then this lovely bundle. Heartbreaking parting with my airguns, but I think I got a bargain. Me and my son haven't stopped smiling all day. Hammering thru the BBs. -

There's one of those defogging things in the bundle, exfog it says on it. There's so much stuff it feels like Christmas. He has a full face mask, but can't wear it with the helmet. I wear glasses so I want it anyway. I'll look for some decent quality goggles before we go shooting next. -

Today's new toys, did a trade for a few of my air rifles with a gentleman from g trader. Absolutely over the moon, my son is ecstatic. All works as he described, and he threw in so many extras. We have hammered thru BBS since we got back. And It only cost me 20 quid of diesel and we made a new friend. Today is a great day. And I won't be letting him use the mesh goggles, they came in the bundle but I know they are not safe enough. 😆 -

Look what postman Pat brought me today, feels like Christmas. The specna edge is from stryderb, who threw in some great extras. Thanks Sam. The Mp5 from namsam is a beauty, but I will admit I had no idea how to load and use the hi caps as I'd never seen em before. I thought I'd broken them. 😆 Had to phone a friend. -
They told me they supply a few bigger airsoft shops.

Turns out this place is only a 10 minute drive from me, and I needed some new batteries to go with my new acquisitions. Not the easiest place to find, despite it being a tiny Welsh village, I've driven that way load's and never noticed it. Its a really nice small business, with really friendly and knowledgeable staff. Will definitely go back soon for more supplies. They knocked me up a couple of batteries with deans connections while I waited and gave me sensible advice on looking after and maintaining my batteries. They even brought out a few different ones to try so i could get the biggest I could fit in the rifs. I know they popular with you guys and I can see why. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for batteries or any other parts.

They'd have to be a bloody good shot to get my small todger. Seriously tho, it's not a bad idea. I bet it would bloody hurt, and I'd hate to disappoint my wife. 😆

Yep, seen some pictures. I'm more interested in the HK after some research and a good night sleep, as hpa seems more agro for me and I'm moving away from airguns and into Airsoft. (I still have a dozen or so air guns, inc pcps, springers and CO2) Thanks for your reply mate.

Hi guys n gals. Got a few things up for sale on g trader, been offered these for a trade. Could you guys give me some advice as to the options and prices please. More interested in aeg than hpa. Would be a face to face trade, spoke to him on the phone and he seems decent. Thanks in advance Rick

Yep, that makes sense. So much for my cunning plan. I don't want to piss off the landowner. Thanks mate.

Guess that answers my question. I wanted to shoot at one of my permissions, but I can't if they won't break down quick enough! I'll still leave it soaking for a bit anyways.
-
I brought some bios, and out of curiosity I've put it in a glass of water to see what happens. After 5 hours it's still rock hard. I'll give it a few days to see what happens as long as the wife doesn't throw it away.

Most expensive of the lot. And noisy as f*ck. Was a ww2 version that they'd brought boxed and unused. For me, the pump action shotgun was my favourite. Especially with the heavier shells. Kicked like a mule as they say. Both had bruises afterwards. 😆 Luger was pretty cool, but smaller than I expected and kept jamming. -
I have a solid plastic hard case for it already, but I appreciate the advice. Cheers Bill.

Almost 15, and yep I insist he wears a full face mask no matter what. No mesh or anything else. He has been shooting for almost ten years. We both shot full auto live fire in Krakow, Poland this year, and he has great discipline and common sense. He gets that from his mum of course. Hope I'm allowed to post that picture, I can remove it if not? He chose that one, I went for luger, 1911, uzi, AK, Tommy, and all the ones ive seen in the movies. Expensive but worth every penny. I shot 15 different ones, him 13. Made our holiday, can't wait to go back. Wife is Polish, so will go back again soon. Found out about Taiwangun, so have another reason to visit now -
Bloody hell, this place is only about 5 miles away. What a piece of luck... Spoke to the guy on the phone and I will pop there with my MP5 in a couple of days to get a couple of batteries. Bargain.

No offence taken at all mate, I'm here to learn... Thanks for taking the time to reply. I'm a pussy who doesn't want to get hurt, and especially not see my son get hurt. He's far too expensive to replace... Cheers Rick. And yep stupidly is far too common these days. Far too common. -

Long as I haven't offended anyone... 😆 I have no intention of letting anyone shoot at me with lidl eyewear, they were only for target shooting. But I do get and accept the honest and decent advice. Thanks. On a different note, I brought the CYMA blue edition mp5 for sale on here and am very excited... Can't wait. -

Cheers guys, I'm not buying anything till I go the my local site/shop I want to try before I buy. If I'm spending that much money I want to see it fits nicely and is comfortable. This post headed in a direction I didn't expect. 😆 I only wanted to share something I'd seen in lidl. -

I'm a little intimidated by the prices of the quality face masks, but I know if we going to do this regularly and safely I need to invest. Thanks again. -

Great reply and suggestions, thanks. I have been using the full face masks at the site I shoot at, although I did buy my son his own mask. I think I will get a full face mask as suggested. We both wear cheapish goggles when target shooting in the garage with paintball and now airsoft as there's no one shooting back at us. That's really what I brought these for. Cheers. Rick. I appreciate the advice mate, thank you. Yep, the garage is safe and I have a padded and secure backstop to reduce ricochets. I do shoot sub 12 ftlb airguns in there without issues. I usually wear a set of Stihl chainsaw goggles over my glasses. (Found em in garage when we moved in.) As I mentioned he has a budget brand, (but the same as my local site hands out) full mask as I quite like the little shit.... But lesson learned thanks guys. I don't want either of us to get hurt. Thanks for the replies. -

My plan was a few 4 or 5mm holes on the top and bottom of the frame, not to touch the lenses themselves. Would that be ok? I think I'll shoot them a few times before I rely on them. Id like a better quality set for sure. I also wear glasses which I assume adds an extra layer of safety? But I really know bugger all about airsoft and would never argue with the experts...

Lidl find. £4 I think. No vents so I'm gonna take a Dremel to it later and make some holes. Fit nicely over my glasses. Not sure if of interest to anyone. Sorry for double pictures, crap with tech... 😆
