ooooohhhh.....an evening game. Pussies Must get back there some time.

So? I take it you're talking about the Malls? I've used mine there, just stay in the auto areas and use it as much as you can before lunch

Because......?

I wondered if that was the case. In summary then - buy the part from Land warrior as linked by Berto and remove the top part of the sight or change the whole outer barrel to a solid one the right length. Or just grind it off with a dremel and repaint the end of the barrel.

The price is steep considering they are only steel mesh at the front. The sides are only material to give you a better cheek weld. If you had a pair of cutters and the time/inclination you could pretty easily mod any steel mask to be like this. Personally I'd want to reinstate some protection with foam/neoprene or even just make it asymmetrical - only make it material on the side you have your weapon (unless of course you transition all the time to get around corners).

Cool, thanks!

Just looking for anyone with direct experience of this gun really - looking to build a Mk18 for not loads of money and wondered if it was a decent enough platform to start from. I know the rail is plastic but what how does it mount to the receiver? Is it capable of taking a metal rail at a later stage if so desired? Is the gun generally decent or am I going to spend the same again replacing the guts? Have at it! Note - I'd rather have people with direct experience answer than a guy who saw his brothers mates uncle using one on youtube once. Cheers.

Just thought - aren't the combat machine sights moulded on?

Just what I was going to suggest!

Is it threaded in the back end or is it pinned/screwed on?

The problem is that the gun you have is just not very good and is not really upgradeable/repairable. Use it while it still works, then import a proper AEG if you can.

I like you, you're funny.

I said most...

You can get pouches that attach to the stock but they look awful.

I know. I was doing comedy.

Write it off as a lost cause and get a CYMA one from Taiwangun. Seriously though, what makes you think that a) it will magically stop working and that the motor is so unique? (genuine question by the way I've not seen the inside of the Star ones)

Gloves. Job jobbed.

The gun will only draw as much current as the resistance of the wiring will allow. That said, it would allow the gun to achieve it's fullest potential just before bursting into flames and taking the soul of his first-bown. I say do it and post the video once he gets out of the burns ward.

This is all over FB. So bored of it now. No, the kid shouldn't have been a dick about burning the patch, no the guy shouldn't have full auto'd him with a ridiculous RoF gun. They're both dicks. In America. Where most airsofters appear to be either bullet proof kids or dicks. Or both.

The main gearbox is basically standard other than the bit that flaps the ejection port cover back and forth. Most if not all of what you've read about AEG upgrades will hold true.

Try something like this: http://www.fatbobspaintball.co.uk/paintball-clothing/paintball-jerseys/eclipse-hde-jersey-camo.html#.Vp_CEvmLSt8 It's padded in the chest, shoulders and arms. It won't STOP you getting welts but it may well help to mitigate them. There's trousers etc too. I get bleeders more than a lot of my mates, don't know why but there it is. I have a customer facing job so I try and make sure that if I know I have something coming up then I wear something more likely to give me protection. My UBACS (a Viper one) has fairly heavy cotton sleeves which help but I have taken the foam pads out as they make the arms stiff and I hate that. I run a WAS 901 chest rig with the back panel so I don't get too many hits there either but there's always going to be spots where you get hit that will welt up (side of the chest, inside the leg/arm). If it really is a serious health issue for you then maybe change your play style - use cover more effectively and simply try harder to not get shot.

You may have picked the wrong forum for that It's all meant in good fun though so please don't take offence! A chest rig or plate carrier will help take the sting out of the centre mass hits but failing that you could look at a UBACS like the Viper one that has padding in the arms. Maybe a paintball shirt (I seem to remember some have quilted sleeves).

Also worth mentioning that the sales of Snus is banned in the EU.

Worth a read. http://www.webmd.com/smoking-cessation/features/snus-tobacco-health-risks Tobacco. Not cool. Whatever your friends say.

It's like he thinks this is new.... Skoal Bandits anyone?
