B.S Posted March 19, 2016 Author Posted March 19, 2016 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. Yeah, when I buy one I pay them, then they buy it, That's what you mean?
Root Admin proffrink Posted March 19, 2016 Root Admin Posted March 19, 2016 Yeh, in practice it matters little but that's the law.

B.S Posted March 19, 2016 Author Posted March 19, 2016 Or transparent. EDIT: Emphasis on colour, all shades of grey from white to black are realistic. Yeah, Although not seem many bright white guns!
Sacarathe Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Yeah, Although not seem many bright white guns! http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Kingsman:_The_Secret_Service#Submachine_Guns CBA with realworld example.
B.S Posted March 19, 2016 Author Posted March 19, 2016 http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Kingsman:_The_Secret_Service#Submachine_Guns CBA with realworld example. Well then, I stand corrected! That's quite a cool getup actually, isn't really worth getting a snow one in the UK of course.
Sacarathe Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Well then, I stand corrected! That's quite a cool getup actually, isn't really worth getting a snow one in the UK of course. I don't know, I see a lot of people with Tan guns and CB gear. And black is supposedly just as useless if not more so.
Russe11 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Be aware that if you decide to get WW2 kit then it starts getting expensive. Check out ww2airsoft.org.uk though as it does open up some very fun games. Both my main guns are actually the AGM Sten. One is stock and the other has been used as a base for a custom made Owen gun for use with Australian gear. Magazines for the Sten come in 2 sizes. AGM makes 50 round magazines and King Arms makes 110 round magazines (they actually hold 130ish). The King Arms mags can be hard to get hold of and use less metal, they can sometimes have issues fitting into Stens (the same mags work on MP40's. If you have issues with King Arms mags, there are various fixes that you can do though. As the magazines are not high caps you will either need lots of them or will need to learn to control your bursts to save ammo. WW2 Australian Jungle Greens, P37 webbing and my custom Owen gun (background may have been photoshopped a little bit): . B.S 1

Yeah, I'd get a British Infantry uniform if anything, I've found where to get it from, But I'm not gonna get it for a while. Gonna get the guns first, I just like the sten and thought I'd rather get it than get a G&G and then eventually a Sten. The main bits, You get the idea: http://www.sofmilitary.co.uk/1940-bd-battle-dress-jacket-product,3186 http://www.sofmilitary.co.uk/ww1-british-mk1-brodie-helmet-product,13900 P.S Nice reflection
Russe11 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Also check out whatpriceglory.com and http://stores.ebay.co.uk/spearheadmilitaria/ Bear in mind that British battledress is made from the itchiest scratchiest wool imaginable. Denim battledress is an option and is also cheaper. Epicmilitaria.com is also worth a look I did a guide a while back: http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/22158-ww2-airsoft-for-dummies/ Spearhead is where I got my Australian Service dress (awesome soft merino wool and massive pockets). whatpriceglory is where I got my Jungle greens and Khaki drill.

Very useful links, thanks I Also noticed you have a Lee Enfield, Where on earth did you find an Airsoft one of those! I found some modified ones, but they look like they'd be a bit dodgy performance and mechanics wise: http://www.shootandscoot.co.uk/shop/lee-enfield-no-4/
Russe11 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 My lee Enfield is by Iron Airsoft. They made 1 batch a couple of years ago. They were prone to problems and my one no longer works. Still great for reenactment though. The shoot and scoot Lee enfields are currently the best bet. However there is information that Red Wolf Airsoft may be making a no4 based on a VSR10 sometime soon.

Well, I won't have enough for a Shoot N' Scoot until this is out anyway, I'll decide which I get closer to the time. Very cool though How much do you think? Found some more info, still don't know if it's going to be affordable, but looks nice none the less. - the prototype was made on VSR-10 design, so the overall dimensions are shifted to fit it, they did not know that L-96/MP-001 is somewat better to start from, with smaller bolt diameter - back sight will be replaced with more common adjustable model - hop-up chamber will fit VSR-type rubber, but of RWA manufacture (slightly smaller in inner diameter) - RWA office in the UK is currently holding a discussion with English weapon's specialists, trying to improve the design according to actual de-activated Enfields. No information whether the prototype rifle was also shipped to UK for inspection - no information on magazine - aluminium body is being considered. Surely not a steel, but they DO try to move from aluminium alloys to get it more durable.

B.S Posted March 21, 2016 Author Posted March 21, 2016 By rwa so alllooot Well, They said 'Affordable' on the FB Post, but that could mean anything. https://www.facebook.com/redwolfairsoft/photos/a.56852898949.64773.17117533949/10153873976503950/?type=3&theater
Russe11 Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 There is talk of following it up with a No1 MkIII* so I will wait. The SMLE was used in all theatres by all commonwealth countries, the No4 was only really used in Europe after 1942. That and the SMLE uses a P1907 bayonet which is a hell of a lot scarier than the No4 bayonet
