Yeh, in practice it matters little but that's the law.

BAMF mags are good from what I've heard through the Daytona Gun groups, but like Sacarathe says: Just buy PTS EPMs or Hexmags. You'll pay duty on anything with a value of more than £12 and the service charge is a killer. Like I say in every one of these threads: Don't buy from the US on 90% of airsoft gun stuff (gear being a different thing). Mainland Europe has good deals on most things but as it's not always in English Google doesn't index them very highly when you search, so be aware of that. Edit Here you go: http://www.socomtactical.net/BAMF-190-Rounds-Polymer-MidCap-Magazine-For-M4-M16-Tan & http://www.socomtactical.net/BAMF-190-Rounds-Polymer-MidCap-Magazine-For-M4-M16-Black

It's any 'bright colour' - bright blue is fine. Again though, if you're under 18 then you can't buy anyway. In practice that usually just means making sure your parents know if it's online as legally they're the ones meant to be buying it.

Can't even buy a 2-tone under 18 really, but you can have your parents do it. Usually I wouldn't mention such things but as you have a YouTube channel you need to make yourself familiar with the law so as not to spread bad information if you ever say anything off-hand in a video. Those threads in the second link I posted on the other page have everything that you need to know Please be sure to do your due diligence as airsoft is a hobby that regularly comes under threat in the UK, so we all have a responsibility to know the law. If you intend to publicise airsoft-related content then this is especially important.

Yeh, I even use their .30. tracers

Just remember: You can't get properly site registered or UKARA registered if you're under 18.

Surely you've learned by now that an accurate consensus in airsoft takes at least 13 years to reach. That's why some people still swear by Nuprol BBs.

Given that they've only hit UK retailers this week I'd imagine no one has any tangible experience with them yet. Looks like you're the Guinea pig!

He's a changed man now - ok!?

Not legal without a defence, unfortunately. Those two guns are also naff - as people have said in that other thread: Avoid those kinds of rubbish websites that exclusively sell 2-tone guns as there are plenty of decent retailers how will spray a decent gun for you.That said, however, you should certainly rent your gear and get your UKARA sorted or become a site member and then buy something decent. There's no hurry to start spending, but I know it's tempting. You will regret buying cheap when you start just because you couldn't be patient (this happens all the time to new players). And please read the stickies in this forum as you'd probably have found the answer without the need for a new thread. http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/3779-the-beginners-guide-to-airsoft/ http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/12854-new-player-guides-info/

It's mostly the 'voids' in the frame that aren't compatible. Not sure if that's the case on the WE, but if you remove the OEM grips and there's a big gap underneath then you're good. Without the gaps there the grips need sanding down. I know the KWA and TM frames have these voids but yeh, not sure about WE.

Yes, it will.

Bastards are good but expensive. If you're trigger happy then perhaps the G&G or ASG ones would be better. Also the Bastards are kinda hard to get a hold of these days.

Na,, I just mean that some hop units, bucking combinations can't lift heavier ammo consistently. You'll be fine with the Prometheus soft bucking though - those things are good.

Na - the minimum for airsoft these days should really be .25s even in pistols. At 1.1J between .28 and .30 is optimal really.

They always quote correctly do X-Fire, so you got very lucky indeed

Go to .28s or even .30s if your hop can do it. Learn not to spam the trigger There are definetly better brands out there than Excel - I'd change this immediately really because it's a quick way to get much better performance. .20s are always naff. X-Fire has free shipping right now but you will absolutely end up paying VAT and a service charge if the total comes to £12 or more, so be wary. Service charge and VAT means you can expect to maybe pay £13 ontop of that though.

Also, decent ammo and weight.

Barrel length doesn't matter*; the finish and - to some degree - bore does. Prometheus, ORGA, PDI etc. - they're all good makes. PDI I still feel make the best out there, but Prometheus are excellent too. You'll see a difference between a good brand of barrel over many stock ones. You may get a very slight boost to your muzzle energy but at that length with an AEG it probably won't be a whole lot. You do need to put time into your hop unit and bucking, R-hop or flat hop or whatever because that's going to matter far more for accuracy. *For accuracy

Don't bother with optics, lasers or anything else - pour every last penny (minus that money you've set aside for your batteries and eye protection) into the AEG. You will get what you pay for. Do not buy frivolous accessories, paint, etc. when you start because you likely won't be able to budget for anything decent and will just end up with a load of sub-par rubbish after the first few months before then realising that you could have better spent that money on your AEG. The ones we always recommend on here are the G&G CM-16s and the ICS M4s. There are of course plenty of others, but those tend to be the most popular.

Without pictures it's hard to get an idea of condition.

With two 980s you should probably consider a decent 4K.

Titans aren't a good investment anyway - they were made a premium choice for the increased driver support and developer tools; they are not a consumer card. Buy 980 Tis if you want gaming performance.

Devastator is the only one that can so er yeh.

The ones for the 'sponsors'?
