airsoft

[rapid wolf]

i was sure of an ak like 10secs ago

[honest meadow]

Get an AK now then a broken mcx and put a hpa engine in it

[rapid wolf]

isn’t hpa expensive

[limber flame]

getting into yes

staying in
not so much

[honest meadow]

Yea but once u have all the gear it'll be cheap as all u will need is to buy an engine

[river bison]

I’m like 18 HPA engines deep

Lmao

[rapid wolf]

how much is an engine

[limber flame]

youre also insane

[river bison]

Cheapest is 278

[river bison]

Least sane airsofter

[rapid wolf]

that’s a lot but less than i thought it was

[river bison]

Lmao

[honest meadow]

Most sane military personnel

[river bison]

A kythera is all you need in a lot of cases, it’s simple

Or a N7 milsim

[honest meadow]

And it's cheap

[rapid wolf]

i haven’t done a lot of research into hpa

wasn’t really considering it

[river bison]

I’m putting a kythera on the Noveske I’m building

[honest meadow]

Once u get one it's all u want

[rapid wolf]

hm

i will need to watch videos on hpa

[elder anchor]

Kinda glad the HPA MCX I bought was a scam

[river bison]

@elder anchor lol why

[crystal rover]

yes an no

Anyway my gbb addiction grows stronger

[rapid wolf]

if i dont end up picking up that ak i posted earlier then im just gonna stick with my mp7

[knotty verge]

Really happy with this lmao

[frozen raven]

the rentals are weeping

[knotty verge]

LITERALLY

I felt so bad

I had a peak in there spawn and I was far back enough with a few different peaks that I held them back the whole game and ended up winning the round

[rapid wolf]

ohne would approve of ur knife

[knotty verge]

Thanks!

[faint sun]

Damn, I need a good quality Balisong now

[elder anchor]

I’ve come to appreciate AEGs more

[river bison]

Lmao why

[elder anchor]

I have absolutely no idea

Reasons off the top of my head would be easily swapping between my rifles without having to remove a tank, and not just using one rifle over my others simply because it’s HPAed, that and easily being able to lend my friends any one of my guns for a game day

But with HPA being simply objectively better and all this might well change in the future.

[weary olive]

Two of my guns

[elder anchor]

Tf is going on with that m4

[weary olive]

Nth, its tippman with suppresir and sum rando dot, with siemma engine and motor, and max hop up

And other litle shits

[elder anchor]

The rando dot throws me off hugely

Go treat yourself to some Eotech repro pal

[weary olive]

Nah i wanna get vortex

[elder anchor]

Solid optics

[weary olive]

But genuinely that red dot is good it does it job perfectly

[elder anchor]

For airshit at least

[elder anchor]

Just looks funky asf

[weary olive]

Cuz i like to break stuff vortex is the best option cuz of insurance

[weary olive]

Ik 😂😂😂

[elder anchor]

Sig would be better

[weary olive]

Would it?

I run deagle aswell

Tokyo marui

[elder anchor]

Objectively, yes

[weary olive]

Are they expensive

[elder anchor]

Love some TM

[elder anchor]

Some of the Romeo’s are very reasonable

Vortex esq prices

[weary olive]

Oh
Ok

[weary olive]

Looks nice

What did u do to the flashlight?

Looks scratcged up properly

[weary olive]

Did you buy ur gille or u made it urself?

[crisp sedge]

Bought the base from SCghillie, then yeah built from there

I've probably worn it 300+ hours at this point, alot of work an tuning into it an it's perfect for when I need it

[elder anchor]

Used and abused by someone before me

[weary olive]

Yea cuz ghillie cost 400 pounds but the base and the leafs cost only 60, so i am wondering if its worth spendung the time to make it urself

[weary olive]

Oh happens

[crisp sedge]

Scghillie it's usually around 2-300~ if it's pre-built, but the materials they use are way better then that weird nylon shit on those cheap Amazon ones

Making your own ghillie suit, for me is fun

I'm sure I'm somewhere on the high functional spectrum lol

[weary olive]

Lol

Interesting well is making your own ghillie time consuming

Or is it fast enough?

[crisp sedge]

Days.

Or at least several hours.

[weary olive]

Aight thanks

I know hoe to play airsoft now i need to leanr tarkov 😂😂

[uneven eagle]

i want to get an airsoft shotgun just to have it around for shits and giggles, any recommendations?

like, i don't want it to be a "full-on-tactical with rails" I just want it around

[crisp sedge]

I don't have alot of experience working on any but I'd say avoid gas ones if you want it to work for awhile, cheap but it works of course Cyma, for something nicer Secutor arms, for nice gas shell ejectors it gets expensive

[uneven eagle]

cheers

[weary olive]

I mena co2

Is not bad

[elder anchor]

Golden eagle gas pumps are OK.. you can very cheaply HPA them and have an insanely fun gun for cheap

[weary olive]

Shotguns go around cheap

[elder anchor]

Other than that, try TM

Expensive but

Work phenomenally

[weary olive]

Get an smg

Shotgun is not worth it

Atleast for me

[uneven eagle]

the shotgun was meant for shits and giggles, i don't go to fields

[weary olive]

Oh

Fair enough

[uneven eagle]

but of couse i do enjoy a hk slap every-once-in-a-while

[elder anchor]

Shit in that case any £30 shotgun will suffice

[honest meadow]

Never getting one again

[crisp sedge]

I had a really good Repro-UH1, costed like 150 but shit was crispy clean

Except for the mount. Every single repro has a shit mount

[elder anchor]

Shoulda bought a HW

[low umbra]

if ur want gbb tm akx might be close to what you're looking for

[rapid wolf]

i would love one but the gun itself is prolly an arm and a leg and shipping will prolly be an arm and a testicle if i dont get a relative to ship it for me which i dont wanna go thru the hassle of

[low umbra]

you're right, it was hundreds for me in total for shipping/customs

ridiculous but ig where else can i order it from

[rapid wolf]

[frozen raven]

cyma 870 full metal they can be had from amazon for ~160

thye have a standard long variant and a lot of shorrter tactical options

also on evike for 125

[honest meadow]

eh not rlly into the whole eotech atm more of a t1 or romeo guy atm

[frozen raven]

T1 styles are nice

I like the way they look when mounted low profile

[elder anchor]

low mount L

[frozen raven]

skyscraper optic

[limber flame]

you gotta get yourself a HFC skiff

[elder anchor]

im aware

would be tight

[honest meadow]

the scaraab mount is nice

if thats what its called

no scalar works is what i meant

[honest meadow]

bluds ready for a shootout with those mags damn

[ruby pollen]

Rs

[honest meadow]

ik

didnt think it was airsoft cause of the lack of gold inner barrel sticking out like a sore thumb

[ruby pollen]

It’s recessed

[river bison]

I love optic risers, especially as an NVG user

[river bison]

Lol if it’s RS why are you posting it here?

[ruby pollen]

I’m saying real shit to his comment not my mags.

[river bison]

Ahhhh

[river bison]

Damn my Noveske finally got here just gotta get off work first then I can work on it

[honest meadow]

damn thought it were a real sd setup

[limber flame]

CC airshid setups are extremeley fuckin based ong

[honest meadow]

tf pink bb's?

like how everyone jus glossed over that haha

[limber flame]

because its based

[crystal rover]

which one

[ruby pollen]

They are .20s

[pulsar oxide]

Anyone give me a value on these. VSR-10, Barrera gas powered, and the case

[low umbra]

yo that caught me by surprise

[elder anchor]

Reality:

[chrome osprey]

since when pepper spray is airsoft friendly

[limber flame]

new riot gun dropped

CS gas dispenser

[elder anchor]

Looks like a glock (is actually just mace)

[river bison]

@elder anchor

Temporary set up

But it’s tuned like crazy

[elder anchor]

Get an Eotech on it

[honest meadow]

fr that hydra deserves a tan exps3 or smth

[crystal rover]

Vape, nah losing all my gg

[zinc pier]

Average 2.26 User

[limber flame]

completely forgetting the hydra is 2.91

[zinc pier]

default ak stocks called and they want their neck weld back

[limber flame]

hydra on a dovetail mount

with rommy coathanger

collarweld frfr

[elder anchor]

Post kit

[knotty verge]

Not all of my guns but there’s most lmao

[smoky thunder]

So my shit came in, and I think they glued the oem muzzle device to the gun…

[knotty verge]

Oh boy

[smoky thunder]

I can’t get my camera to focus, but the button that’d normally release these things is coated in the shit

Is this normal for cyma shit?

[crystal rover]

get a small flat head, line it up and smack it

should losen it

[smoky thunder]

No dice

I’m just reshaping the button at this point lol

When I say it’s coated, I mean the button blends into the front sight/gas block like it’s all one piece

Shit won’t budge

The oem battery’s missing from my box too

Evike moment

[crystal rover]

evike moment

this is why i stopped messing with aks

[smoky thunder]

I don’t blame you, this is annoying

I’ma try the ol’ boiling water trick, wish me luck

[river bison]

Lol I’m glad I’m not the only one who utilized pegboards to hang guns

[knotty verge]

Yeah lol

[crystal rover]

i need to start

[knotty verge]

Thats alot of guns though lmao , thought i had alot 😉

[river bison]

That’s not even all of them

[knotty verge]

Thats wild

how many pistols you got?

[river bison]

5 lol

I only really use my M17

I hate glocks

[oak ginkgo]

I’m looking for a good M4 GBBR that I can customise the shit out of, anyone know any good ones?

[river bison]

We M4 or the TM MWS M4

Just bc of parts availability

[oak ginkgo]

would I be able to get longer barrels different hand guards etc?

[river bison]

Yeah

We is real steel spec but Mws uses Mws spec parts

Evike should have plenty

If ur in the us

[oak ginkgo]

Cheers! That should be perfect then

[oak ginkgo]

ireland but ill make it work

[zinc pier]

i dont play airsoft 🙂

[elder anchor]

Kit is kit

Post it

[nimble sable]

yo is it possible to hpa tap co2 mags?

[low umbra]

yea

[nimble sable]

is there any difference in tapping a green gas mag and a co2 one?

[elder anchor]

Not the ones you have to put the cartridge in I don’t think

[nimble sable]

ah okay, thanks.

[ripe valley]

whoaaaaaaaa thats awsome

hpa enjoyer i see

🫡

[low umbra]

yea

[frozen raven]

glued prolly

[frozen raven]

We had other issues the gas system is very wasteful but it does work with real parts, my charging Handel broke so I bought a surplus one

also the magazine bolt hold open barely works and needed a lot of work to funtion

I had to add 2-3 mm of material for it to function also the magazine hold open tab on the followers break

Added material

Used paper and superglue

This is the mechanism to activate the bolt hold open

Notice how the circled part isn’t straight that is because it broke off of the follower, you can buy replacements

I can’t recommend WE “open bolt” style GBBR’s

[wheat isle]

we going to the game but i have no weapon box

[honest meadow]

Tbh probably better than an actual case

More low profilen

[river bison]

I put the UH-1 on it for now

[honest meadow]

still fits

[elder anchor]

Actually looks really damn good lol

[hushed yoke]

why would you even get a open bolt m4 💀

[frozen raven]

it just means the bolt cycles fully to the rear

IDK why they call it that its a Chinese company might be a mistranslation/interpretation of full travel bolt

[hushed yoke]

The we m4 does anyway

[river bison]

Lol I upgraded my WE M4 with RATech stuff and it hasn’t failed

Granted I use HPA tap

It’s easier on the parts

The one on the left is a WE

[frozen raven]

well yah, they used the full travel system for a while

[frozen raven]

did you have any issues with the mags when you did use them?

[river bison]

Never with HPA, I don’t bother with green gas

[frozen raven]

is HPA'ing a GBBR basically the same as an AEG

or do you need special parts

[river bison]

No lol I still get the recoil and everything, it’s easier on the parts because I can control the pressure

[river bison]

No all you need is to tap the magazines

[frozen raven]

how does that work with the low capacity do you need to change the lead when you switch mags?

[river bison]

People say it’s inconvenient having to DC the line when you reload but it becomes second nature after awhile, also I use high capacity tapped mags or drum mags so I don’t have to reload as often

[frozen raven]

would you post a pic of a tapped mag? is it a simple fill valve replacement or is it more in depth

[river bison]

@frozen raven

[rugged salmon]

anyone know how much a deacent altyn replica usually costs and where i should look for one?

[frozen raven]

Like 200

[formal garden]

yo i can build that in tarkov so ez

what's the laser attachment thing called?

i don't recognize it from the game

also why are drum mags for mp7 not in tarkov.

[limber flame]

the peq?

[limber flame]

because they dont exist

[formal garden]

oh-

[formal garden]

oh didn't recognize cuz color

[river bison]

Peq-15 or In game they have LA-5’s

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/LA-5B/PEQ_tactical_device

Oh wait I guess they do have the 15’s in game too

[velvet pagoda]

I 3d printed one for like $20 bro it’s cheaper to buy a 3D printer than to buy an altyn

This is a k6-3 i know but same thing

[rugged salmon]

ye lol how long do they take to print usually?

also what type of 3d printer would be good to get as a first one?

[dry hound]

btw i got a thermal instead of a 3d printer

ill probably get one soon

[elder anchor]

Wise man

[dry hound]

ill get the 3d printer tho

soon

[naive pecan]

Hey guys do you know if Magpul MOE buttstock fit on AEG Spcena arms SA-H23 ?

[elder anchor]

Yes

How do you like the H23?

[hushed yoke]

Check the spec of the buffer

[old latch]

Ender 3 V2 if you can, or Ender 3 pro if you for some reason can't

[naive pecan]

Really good bb gun out of box. I’ve just put a 60* maple leaf macaron on the barell and all seems working well

[crystal rover]

i sometimes i hate wokring on gbbs but gbb is life

[elder anchor]

Mine is currently in bits, I reused the internals in a different gun, the gearbox eventually broke on me but after very intense use, honestly probably the best value for money gun out their if it wasn’t for the fact it’s a 416

[velvet pagoda]

It took 2 days of printing for the helmet

[velvet pagoda]

Ill say enders are super hard to learn but cheapest and easiest

And troubleshooting is simple

[smoky socket]

Fumbled at the beginning but quickly recovered for me second best run of the action air course

[elder anchor]

try shoulder swapping and think about smoothing your footwork some more, your movements are very stiff but your overall accuracy is good

i get its not a CQB course but yk i chat shit when i can

and i also know the latest "im different and actually cool" phase is to say that footwork doesnt exist... it does.

(not a dig at you homie the vid is rlly cool lol)

[mild moat]

Swapping the G36 for a 416 soon, but here's what the wall looks like now

[wheat isle]

i dont know how to play

[elder anchor]

g36 is cooler

[smoky socket]

Your good my g, I'm still working on loosening up during action air, it's funny when it's proper game day. I'm way looser and move better.

Set best time that night

[frozen raven]

Dead ass thought this was a Geigercounter

[smoky socket]

Ahahahah

[mild moat]

True, but I've had it for a long time now and a 416 has always been on my bucket list

[frozen raven]

AR but fancy

[elder anchor]

AR15 but worse

[frozen raven]

Lol

[elder anchor]

I’m not joking😐

[frozen raven]

GeRmAn EnGiNeErInG

Wrong reply:|

[elder anchor]

I’ve gone from loving to hating the 416 slowly but surely

Pointless german guns

[frozen raven]

Me when it fills the same functions as another gun but breaks twice as often and cost 4 times as much

[river bison]

@elder anchor I’m just waiting on the M110A1 2.0 from VFC to be released

[slate leaf]

lukas mf botkin looking ass

[ashen sinew]

??event

[dense kiln]

There are no current event(s) at this time

[smoky socket]

Ill take it

[slate leaf]

compliment

[oak ginkgo]

@river bison (sorry for the ping but you seem to know your stuff)

if I buy the WE-M4 CQB, can I buy a longer barrel and handguard later to make it normal length?

[river bison]

Yes but you also want to get a longer inner barrel as well @oak ginkgo

[oak ginkgo]

Got it, do you know a good website where I can find WE attachments?

[river bison]

I made mine work by taking the longer 14.5 barrel from the WE 416 and switched it with the M4 CQBR

[river bison]

Evike if ur in the US

[limber flame]

just get a gen 2 or 3 vfc

doesn't require a bunch of extra shit to not destroy itself

(WE cheese internals)

will have to buy it from redwolf, proact or jkarmy

[river bison]

You are in the US right?

[limber flame]

no

thats why i said the 3 importers

[river bison]

Oh lmao

It’s so fuckin annoying trying to get VFC GBB’s in the US

Shipping is a hit or miss because of customs

[limber flame]

its annoying but not hard by any means

the 3 i listed have a fast track pretty much

it was WGC that was having issues

(they still arent shipping to US)

[river bison]

Hmm I’ve never ordered from redwolf but I’m tempted to try at some point

[limber flame]

redwolf are pretty baller

[river bison]

@limber flame I’m fucking hype about the M110A1 VFC release

Better version than the G28

[limber flame]

the glorified g28?

[river bison]

I guess it’s a 2.0

[limber flame]

ah

i dislike it

[river bison]

Yeah they had it in shot show earlier this year

Lmao

[limber flame]

ive always disliked the 416/17 platforms

theyre an obese ar platform with little benefits

417 mags are FUCKING AWFUL!!!

[river bison]

It’s one of my most sought after guns next to the APC9K

[limber flame]

atleast unobtanium gear makes a placard for em

i think

[river bison]

Lol that’s what the 2.0 is trying to improve

[limber flame]

just gimme a SASS ans i is gucci

[river bison]

So I’m hopeful they are more widely available and I heard it’s more affordable than the previous gen

I have to have the M110A1 as a collector of USASOC/SOCOM weapons

Also. Thank god the ICS UKSR stock is back in stock

I just bought one for one of my DMR’s no more having to spend 200 bucks on a goddamn PRS gen 3 lol

[limber flame]

my baby💜

[river bison]

Wanna know what’s funny

We got rid of those recently in real life

[limber flame]

crying

[river bison]

Yeah.

Hmm I guess I’ll be finally putting a Romeo 8T on the rattler

The so tac version

[oak ginkgo]

@limber flame Could you link the M4s you were on about? I can’t find them on any of the stores you mentioned

https://shop.jkarmy.com/a-plus-custom-nov-n4-style-gbb-vfc-m4-v3-gbb-system.html

is this one of them?

[oak ginkgo]

Looking into GHK

[limber flame]

dont

[limber flame]

https://www.proactstore.com/products/vfc-kac-sr-16-e3-carbine-mod2-m-lok-145-v3-gbb

[oak ginkgo]

why not?

[limber flame]

chronic amounts of QC failure and poor quality mags
working on an outdated system

like
the QC is so bad your gun might barely work if youre lucky

theyve been in decline since 2019

and have only gotten worse

their AK's bare the brunt of it
bent barrels
wonky receivers
poorly cast trunnions

the works

[low umbra]

get tm

ghk lost cause

[limber flame]

for what you pay for a GHK m4
you can get a VFC or a TM with mags and other shit

the TM is less real feeling but slightly more performance centered compared to the VFC's lines

but the new gen VFC guns are pretty much getting there in terms of performance

especially gas efficiency

[elder anchor]

Anything SR25 is immediately a W

[river bison]

The M110A1 is a 417

[elder anchor]

OH IS THAT THE NEW ONE

The army’s latest dirt bronze DMR

Shit I didn’t know that was it’s designation

[river bison]

Yup

[elder anchor]

Damn that’s cool

Rip SR

(SR15 still on top)

[limber flame]

SR16 cooler

@elder anchor you seen the new brit SOF rifle contract?

new kac gat with kac cans

lemme try and pull it up

[elder anchor]

Yeah RM and UKSF are up with KS2s now

Ks1s sorry

It’s a huge step in the right direction

I’ve seen a few with clip ons to boot

[limber flame]

love this jawn

[limber flame]

still got sr16 marked lowers

[elder anchor]

Cheeky clip on thermal there

[limber flame]

it is a little cheeky

[elder anchor]

At least all of RM have L119A1s/2s now

[river bison]

Lol I started clipping my pvs-14 onto my rifle

For funsies

[elder anchor]

Clip it on for airsoft lol

[river bison]

I did

For night sniping

[elder anchor]

You go night games?

[river bison]

Of fucking course

[elder anchor]

Gahdamn

Well if you’ve got nods

Cannot say I blame you

[river bison]

Since we play outdoor night games I love how the non nvg folks kept saying they would white light me

Funny thing is I’m not even close enough for it to affect me

They just advertised their position

[limber flame]

non nvg users when they realise that nvg's literally get designed to fight direct white light these days

[river bison]

Also the dummies with the green lasers who love keeping them on

[limber flame]

theyre smart

(fucking idiots)

they banned lasers at our site because of idiots blasting faces with em

someone threw a massive pissy fit on the FB page because someone put it on for a picture
(it put a cool green lense flare on the pic)

it was also a literal end of game picture

[elder anchor]

Any involvement of our favourite tactical influencer airsofters

[limber flame]

them fuckin
guys that make the £100 slingster copy?

uhhh

i cant remember the name of em

but yeah i think it was one of em

[elder anchor]

Yuh

[elder anchor]

Least surprising thought of 2023

[limber flame]

real

[tribal tree]

@river bison I hit a 35 :3

My last 5 rounds jammed

[limber flame]

airswaws!!!

those some dirty rounds though damn

55a1?

[frozen raven]

yes

it fucks up your feed ramp too

[limber flame]

yummy

[river bison]

@elder anchor https://youtu.be/mKMS3Ws2d3I

[warm vault]

The airsoft field about to know killa is a solo

[elder anchor]

Miss

[rugged salmon]

Lol saw someone at my field running this

Also if I upgraded my mosfet is it fine to run a 11.1 lipo instead of my old 7.4 or should I upgrade gears/piston first

[frozen raven]

Gears

And piston

[feral yacht]

anyone know where I can get a cheap knock off of a dovetail sight for airsoft like a kobra or OKP-7?

it aint gotta be great just functioning and cheap

[crystal rover]

@river bison do you use a gun case to transport your mp7?

[river bison]

Yes I use a rifle bag

Sometimes just my Pelican crate

[crystal rover]

hmmm

ok

[river bison]

@crystal rover

[crystal rover]

i see

[river bison]

I love this crate

[crystal rover]

imma buy 5 smallish cases for each of the mp9s imma be building

i was curoius what you used cause everyone does eomthing different

[river bison]

I bring too much stuff

I have like 2 gun bags 1 gun case and the big ass pelican

[crystal rover]

i bring my bp which has most of my shit like: tank, bbs, gloves, dump pouch, gas
dye mask in its bag
pc with gas mags
and gun

i want to make and owen gun so bad, but i am shit and 3d desgin and no one makes one

[river bison]

Hmm maybe I should make the RVG black

[crystal rover]

i like everything about it expect the mount

[river bison]

The mount is drip

It’s actually useful

[crystal rover]

i disagree

[river bison]

The lack of rail space

Plus it being a riser

[crystal rover]

there is plenty of space with the way you have it set up

[river bison]

Lol I had my pressure switch on top

That’s what the space is for

[crystal rover]

i dont see the point of mounting pressure pads on top ngl

[river bison]

It’s better to have the pressure switch up top but I can’t even mount that damn thing without that riser

[river bison]

Lol every operator in the world will disagree with you about pressure switch placement

Your thumb will naturally fall on top when you have a proper grip on your weapon

You have less positive control of your weapon having pressure switches on the side

[crystal rover]

majority of people i play with prefer to have it on the side, the only time they c clamp is when running a peq with no pressure pad or no white light/laser

some are ex military or cops

[river bison]

The bandwagon against the GBRS mounts exists because they are expensive as fuck

As an NVG user I think they are neat

I’m also not that type of scrub who buried their cheek on the stock

[crystal rover]

i cant even ads lmao

dye mask makes it pointless

just watch da bbs

[river bison]

That’s what risers are for

Lol

With nods or a gas mask or a paintball mask

Also wearing peltors make it annoying to get cheekwelds

[crystal rover]

headphones in general make that happen

i have walkers but thanks to my odd ass ear placment tryong to shoulder shit while wearing them pushs them up from my ear abit

[crystal rover]

i fuck with it

[river bison]

I put the UH-1 on the hydra instead of a T1 style red dot

[crystal rover]

i love the uh-1 which is why to me it doesnt look that bad

[river bison]

Funny enough I would install they hydra mount backwards and mount the magnifier on the hanging end

If im using the eotech with the magnifier

[crystal rover]

interesting

honestly i would consider putting a uh-1 on a mp9 but idk how it would look

[river bison]

It can work

I put the UH-1 on the MP7 and the vector too

I might buy another

[crystal rover]

so here is the thing

i would end up getting 5 of them

[river bison]

I bought a Romeo 8T recently to use for my rattler

[crystal rover]

so unless i found some cheap but decent airsoft knock offidk if ill ever own one

[crystal rover]

do they make a tan uh1?

wait, do you run rs optics on all your airsoft guns?

[river bison]

On most of them yes

[crystal rover]

you make me feel poorer everytime i found out what you truely run

ngl i kindal ike the uh-1 better

but imagine those builds but in black and ranger green aswell

[crystal rover]

what engine

[river bison]

Kythera

[crystal rover]

@river bison how much did you sped on the gun itself before putting the engine in it? the noveske that is

[river bison]

@crystal rover 400ish

[crystal rover]

....

[river bison]

Lol I bought the one with the MFT stock on it

Also I got mine from evike

[river bison]

are you in the Us?

[crystal rover]

ye

[river bison]

Mine only cost 400ish because it came with the stock and Supressor

[crystal rover]

thats fair

[river bison]

https://www.evike.com/products/102357/

[crystal rover]

wit hthese it comes out to 360

400 plus shipping and tax

[river bison]

Bro that stock is a knock off

I have the actual MFT stock and they cost 50-55 bucks each

[crystal rover]

thats true, but it does the same thing

[river bison]

No lol

I wouldn’t trust that stock

Especially that QD slot

[crystal rover]

my friend has one and its pretyy fucking solid

[river bison]

It’s a good way to drop your rifle from a sling

The surefire style Supressor I have is gonna be replaced by a deadair Supressor once I find one

Unless PTS releases it first

[crystal rover]

https://www.academy.com/p/mission-first-tactical-battlelink-minimalist-ar-15-commercial-stock

$50

[river bison]

See above

[crystal rover]

yeah but that still brings it to 400 before shipping and tax

which is a little but more than the gun from evike by itself

[river bison]

Evike also has the FDE version at 374 for some reason

Without the addons

[crystal rover]

evike pricing

[river bison]

I’m usually a VFC guy but god damn these externals are nice

[crystal rover]

ye

noveske quality

[river bison]

Personally my assigned weapon at work is a block 2 with an fsp

I should def get one for airsoft

[crystal rover]

fr airsoft ones are drippy

so i am guessing you just have like hella aeg internals sitting around?

[river bison]

I do

[crystal rover]

any mosfets?

[river bison]

Yeah

A bunch of gate asters

Some titans I ripped out

VFC mosfets

Etc

[crystal rover]

i may need a mosfet 🙂

[elder anchor]

[slate leaf]

What mounts are you running on the helmet

[elder anchor]

Unity MARKs

[oak ginkgo]

@river bison @limber flame (again sorry for the pings)

I'm looking at the GBB VFC M4 (the one you guys linked to me a few days back)

The FPS is 410. In Ireland it's illegal to use one above 328 fps. Is there a way I can request they lower the FPS for delivery? Are there certain parts I need to lower it?

[elder anchor]

where are you buying it from

[oak ginkgo]

proact

[limber flame]

i believe it will have an NPAS system in the nozzle to allow you to lower the power output

[oak ginkgo]

Perfect, thanks!

[lost dove]

[slate jay]

I ram in to my stock so the extra padding makes the brusing on my boddy les visible

[low umbra]

[elder anchor]

you can definetly see down that optic

[slate jay]

Yes i have my helmet just above my eyes

The picture is just at an akward angel as well

[copper beacon]

@river bison im on sand hill now

Its ok

[river bison]

Lol

[copper beacon]

We got smoked yesterday because someone fucked up a dryer

[river bison]

Smh

[copper beacon]

They shaved me bald again as well

[elder anchor]

Bald L

Real homies out here with a full lucious head of hair

[limber flame]

💯

[velvet pagoda]

Is cyma a good brand i assume?

I just got a cyma mp5k for $150 with charger and battery

[elder anchor]

depends what you buy

very hit or miss

there are guides what to and what to not buy

if the MP5K was a blue series then its sound

if not then theres a high chance its mid

[velvet pagoda]

Idk but it has like a bashing cover installed

It was used it has like a 10mm mag

I have rubber bands on it rn to hold the battery on the side until i get a battery peq, any recommendations for one

[elder anchor]

will most likely be fine

[honest meadow]

tbh ur gonna have to get a riser for ur sight otherwise itll be useless

if ur gonna use a peq

[oak ginkgo]

PURELY out of interest. Would I be able to buy a real scope switch system and put it on my VMC MK16?

[velvet pagoda]

Im aware

I figured out the battery the shop guy gave me is wrong since its split and i have to buy a straight battery for it so it can go internally

[rugged salmon]

nah man it'll give him a good clean picture of the peq

[honest meadow]

If u have the rail space yea

[elder anchor]

You mean the new nieche LPVO zoomy zoom thing? It’s all still pic rail so yes it would work

[oak ginkgo]

Great, cheers!

[elder anchor]

Holy moly bro the kit is rediculous

Those ur actually 31s as well lol?

[lethal lava]

Not... really airsoft

[crystal rover]

Very cool

[low umbra]

first time seein u here

[lethal lava]

Not usually peeps that misbehave here =p

[low umbra]

true

[honest meadow]

they hop in sometimes when ppl post random stuff

[dark juniper]

its horrid

umarex glock 19x

[river bison]

Wth

[crystal rover]

i have seen worse

https://youtu.be/jZS_KShhkII

[river bison]

Lmao

[crystal rover]

wrong thing

[river bison]

Reminds me of the poor man’s MP7 AAP-01 conversion

[crystal rover]

they cut the grip

with a BRICK

[slate leaf]

💀

[crystal rover]

the dude who did it

has a whole ass stereo type named after him

[limber flame]

mf used the same brick that was dropped on his head

[crystal rover]

fax

[dark juniper]

bro cut the grip

[rugged salmon]

Would it be a bad idea to invest in a evike bone yard gun?

[elder anchor]

Yes

They are boneyard because it would be unwise financially for evike to fix them

So therefore a lot of work hours and expensive party’s that are really hard to get your hands on

What were you looking at buying

[crystal rover]

Actually it’s more of a luck of the draw kinda thing

You could get a gun that is “boneyard” and it actually be a new gun

It’s just shit that evike lost, forgot, couldn’t fix, couldn’t sell, or were to lazy making a listing for

[limber flame]

"couldn't fix"

fried trigger contacts

[elder anchor]

[river bison]

If they are heavily discounted I’d do it for the body for hpa

[velvet pagoda]

Am i doing something wrong when i insert green gas? The bottle i turn the gun upside down and push and some gas flies out the sides aswell and starts freezing the gun

Its a brand new bottle of green gas and it was super humid out could it be that

[nocturne spindle]

you bought patches without even knowing what they are?

[limber flame]

you dont?

looks cool
snag it

shrimple as

[elder anchor]

They were cheap and I don’t care

[nocturne spindle]

NGMI

[elder anchor]

Ok?

Doesn’t make sense but we roll

Actually @nocturne spindle post kit

[nocturne spindle]

my practical kit is an alice and m81 its nothing interesting

[elder anchor]

Ngmi.

[nocturne spindle]

good luck lugging your plates around

[elder anchor]

Imagine being in good physical shape

Couldn’t be me

[nocturne spindle]

plate carrier combat load 120 rounds max not gonna make it

[elder anchor]

You love saying that huh

120 rounds isn’t what I’d call a combat load

That number has gone up considerably

[nocturne spindle]

you cag sk8er goon types say otherwise

MCB microrigs

🫢

[elder anchor]

No they don’t lol

Kid thinks they know something

[nocturne spindle]

go get your daily dose of garand thumb while i steal lonely john deeres and copper

[elder anchor]

I used to carry 11 mags lol I don’t know what you mean

[nocturne spindle]

silly plater

[elder anchor]

“I’m cool because my kit is irrelevant”

[nocturne spindle]

im sure both of our kits are made for different scenarios

[elder anchor]

Hardly

[nocturne spindle]

yeah im def gonna have a pc in the middle of appalachia

🫢

[elder anchor]

I would

[nocturne spindle]

I lied!

[elder anchor]

I don’t get your point

If the situation calls for armour you wear armour

Like soldiers have been doing for the last 30 years

[nocturne spindle]

ok well obviously im not gonna larp as a marine in the middle of baghdad

[elder anchor]

Why not

[nocturne spindle]

what kind of question is this

[elder anchor]

A simple one

Gonna Larp at all why obviously not that

[nocturne spindle]

yea because mmm wear big ol hefty IOTV and

try to maneuver through thick bush

[elder anchor]

Sounds like you’re just weak

[nocturne spindle]

some people like to be almost as light as possible but you do you

[elder anchor]

Some people get shot and die

[nocturne spindle]

you and your 10 pound gun

[elder anchor]

Others get shot and don’t

You do you

[elder anchor]

Imagine being in good physical condition..

[nocturne spindle]

not what i am talking about

youre projecting so i am gonna go elsewhere have fun goonie

[elder anchor]

How?

You have argued yourself into the dirt

Feel free to stay and try recover

Otherwise Tara love

[limber flame]

youre literally running alice in 2023

theres far superior belt webbing kits available

and chest rigs

there cheap and widely available

just grab a fucking velsys gen 4

[nocturne spindle]

and?

old but gold

[limber flame]

also this statement is stupid when youre shitting on him for his choice

[limber flame]

old and outdated

[nocturne spindle]

totally. yeah ill let you think that

spend $150 on a chest rig

[limber flame]

i have

and i will again

[nocturne spindle]

😟

[limber flame]

because i like to have actual good shit

[nocturne spindle]

if you got that money go ahead but

jeez louise...

[limber flame]

that isnt chronically outdated webbing kits

[nocturne spindle]

plenty of people still use alice i dont see your issue

if you can genuinely list cons on why i shouldnt then go ahead

[limber flame]

and the plenty of people that are are either underfunded militaries, LARPers and people that cant afford a solid webbing kit

[nocturne spindle]

some people just arent gonna spend $150 on chest rigs, your point being

[limber flame]

150 is fuck all in the gear world

so poor cope all you want

[nocturne spindle]

HAHAHAHA

[limber flame]

this is a real gear household

[nocturne spindle]

youre funny dude

have fun comfortably laying in any prone position

[limber flame]

and youre dryer than a nun

[limber flame]

nice fuddlore

its easy to lay prone

and arguably more comfortable because im not laying directly on rocks

just go into the gear channel and preach this

im pretty sure all the mil and ex mil will tell you that youre wrong

[nocturne spindle]

adjust your chasity before doing so 😁 silly goose

[limber flame]

@river bison youre active mil
fact check this for me

(i already know the answer)

[river bison]

Wym by easy

[limber flame]

in a plate carrier

its really not that difficult to lay prone

youre ever so slightly higher
like that makes everything more uncomfortable

[river bison]

It depends on your placard or if ur running double stack pouches

It gets super uncomfortable to staying prone regardless for long amounts of time

Rocks or not

[limber flame]

tbh
2023
if people are still running double stack
idk what to tell em

just throw em on the bund

[river bison]

Regular military dudes do

[limber flame]

even then
flapped double stacks arent that much bigger

[limber flame]

pretty sure they dont really have a choice though do they?

and from what ive seen
a lot of standard mil guys dont know how to set up gear or molle weave properly

[river bison]

It’s still sop in a lot of units to run double stacks sadly because we have dumbass leadership fighting the last war

And don’t believe in shooter’s preference

[limber flame]

double stacks should be reserved for the sides or on webbing kits

on the front is stupid

[river bison]

That’s only really true for non combat dudes

People fail to realize majority of the military are support jobs

[limber flame]

well yeah
until you look at funny GB kits

hittas with the most odd kits

[elder anchor]

Unironically doesn’t get more stupid than that

Sounds like someone can’t afford good gear

[nocturne spindle]

why are you still on my weiner kindly get off

[elder anchor]

Because you’re wrong

[limber flame]

weiner💀

[nocturne spindle]

Ok.

[elder anchor]

[river bison]

@limber flame the standard combat load is 210-240 rds that’s why some people who don’t know gear do the double stack setup on IOTV’s

[limber flame]

yeah

3 on front
2 on bund
1-2 on belt

[river bison]

Combat arms dudes know better though

[limber flame]

more in wherever the fuck you want

[river bison]

Not everyone uses a belt

[limber flame]

they should!!!

yeah i know

fuckin
other bund then
(jammed in GP pouch)

[river bison]

Like I said everyone ain’t infantry lol. I don’t expect a fucking driver to wear a belt

[limber flame]

drivers dont need a full combat load though dont they?

just generally less

[river bison]

Also have you tried riding a humvee or something with a belt?

Miserable

Lol

[limber flame]

ive rode in a jackal with a full kit
bit different

[river bison]

They do lol

[limber flame]

but the seats are still ass

[river bison]

Even JLTV’s

[limber flame]

interesting

[river bison]

People wear shit for the job they do

[elder anchor]

Ngl i see no reason not to just run a standard triple bungee with assorted pouches on the rest of your kit and have excess ammo in GP pouches

That’s what I do when I bring too many mags

[limber flame]

ive always found it funny with the brit army
they've always been very against putting anything on the front

at all

thats why webbing and rigs are very common combos

theyve been a lot more open though ive noticed
even allowing 2 piece belts and personal kit in more branches

[river bison]

Lol I’m hooked to an IV right now it sucks to type

[limber flame]

oof

[river bison]

I was doing blood transfusion

[limber flame]

what happened

ah

that explains it

[river bison]

I’m teaching

[limber flame]

fun times?

[river bison]

How to do it

Lol

Typical ranger medic day

[limber flame]

ah shit yeah
i forgot you were a medic

[river bison]

Yup

I carry more shit than everyone

[limber flame]

i remember having a few lads from a medical detachment come to my school for a sports day and your typical mil recruitment shi and fucking
asked us to see if we could run with their standard weight bergen (were all kids mind)

most could barely lift it up

and by kids i mean like 13-15

i couldnt even lift it up

shits crazy

[river bison]

Lol I can carry my m4, my kit, my mystery ranch aid bag and a whole kitted out person and their shit too

Lots of leg days

[limber flame]

[river bison]

And dead lifts

[limber flame]

yeah was gonna say

legs gonna be fucking BUILT after all that

[river bison]

Mind you I’m not a big dude

I’m only 5’6

[limber flame]

youre only 5'6?????

[river bison]

Yup

[limber flame]

im genuinely impressed

[river bison]

Training lol

[limber flame]

thats a fucking reality check and a half lmao

then again
ive barely been able to properly work out this year so far

[river bison]

Was it hard to tell from my pictures that I was short

[limber flame]

honestly
yeah

[river bison]

I also got that onset of a dad bod since I’m 32

Haha

[limber flame]

[river bison]

My poor knees

[limber flame]

lubing o-rings doesn't work

just replace it if its dried

[velvet pagoda]

Yeah these are two old guns i never use

[crystal rover]

do not do it when the mag is in the gun

[rugged salmon]

prob just like a m249 featherweight

i like teching stuff im pretty new to it though

[velvet pagoda]

I dont recall if i was but it could be why

Its only a cheap 1908 pocket pistol and a deagle that doesnt even blowback

So its not a huge deal i got them free

[crystal rover]

when the mag is in the gun while empty the valve is pushed down, when you fill the mag in the gun it pushes teh valve out which doesnt go all the wya and starts to just dump gas

[velvet pagoda]

So

I learned the hard way that airsoft mp5s are not meant to be hk slapped

The charging handle broke off

Thankfully it was only for ejecting the battery, the airsoft store i bought it from had an mp5 that was broken im gonna see if i can buy it for parts from them

[elder anchor]

They are everywhere

If you don’t plan to play with it just glue it back on

[velvet pagoda]

Its pot metal i tried model glue but it just came off again

[elder anchor]

Gorilla monkey glue

[velvet pagoda]

I solved it

I took a screw, cut it in half, drilled a hole in both, and screwed them into eachother

[crystal rover]

just buy a metal one its cheaper

[elder anchor]

It’s an interesting MP5

I’d you get the chance send a video of it shooting

Curious how it sounds

[slate leaf]

Cyma made an mp5?

[velvet pagoda]

Its loud as hell

[velvet pagoda]

It is metal

The whole gun is metal and the charging handle

[velvet pagoda]

Its atleast 60 db

[velvet pagoda]

A bunch

Mp5 mp5k and mp5k pdw and like a second series of mp5s

[elder anchor]

Ew

[slate leaf]

How are they

[elder anchor]

Blue series are good platinum are good the default ones are meh at very best

[sonic plover]

Platinums are ass

Don’t recommend them ever

[elder anchor]

It’s just a lie

Shite ETUs and mid mosfets

But otherwise good internals

Worst case scenario for a platinum owner is a Titan ETU lol

[elder anchor]

Fuck imagine getting muted to boot

Being naughty in other chats with your ass takes

[sonic plover]

1. I got muted because I was trying to send a post that featured links to all the CYMA MP5s on Taiwangun.

2. Platinums have ass motor towers, the gearbox is made of cheese metal and you need to dremel to remove material if you want to install an aftermarket ETU

3. Titans are overpriced and have dogshit cycle detection. The optical sensor that detects the trigger is also awful because it's prone to being overexposed to light. Gate customer support is also shit.

The piston head on older model platinums will even fucking destroy itself because of the gearbox piston rail dimensions

The rails are 1.8mm wide instead of 2

Misalignment slowly destroys the piston head

And why would you ever get a Plat when a Specna Edge exists in the same price range and has a good compression set, less shit gearbox and an actually functional ETU

“Hur dur ass take”

Fucking dunce

Stop getting your info off of Reddit

Dickhead

[elder anchor]

1. fuck Taiwan gun, they only ship Europe because they can’t be bothered to fix relations with UK customs. If this has changed I’m unaware but they don’t interest me anymore as they have upped their prices all round.

2. Platinum motor towers and gearbox’s are similar to TM. Very. People argue it’s pot metal shite but really it’s bad techs breaking shit and complaining on Reddit about it. The motor towers are not a detrimental issue. I know all this because this is what I talk about with a legitimate tech who owns three. Fixing the issues is not that hard.

3. titans have always been the inustry standard and everything there is to know about them has already been found out, and they have been altered to appeal more to the wider market (made simpler to install) making them better for less experienced players comparitive to peruns, which yes are objectively better. Gate CS isn’t an issue because who the fuck buys titans direct from gate you troglodyte

[elder anchor]

Specna edge does exist but I’m sorry I forgot they made MP5s you fucking wankstain

Airsoft beef

Specna edge gets recommended over plat M4s any day of the week

Believe it or not you can get them with a Titan pre installed for about the same price, or are you gonna bitch about that because “im poor and don’t like gate”

[sonic plover]

Titans are just shit

[elder anchor]

[sonic plover]

No reason to ever use them over a Perun

Unless you’re really, really braindead and need an app

[elder anchor]

Unless you get them cheap or are a newer player

[sonic plover]

Or pay like 130 for an advanced because you want diagnostic data

[elder anchor]

YEAH, FUCK NON-TECHS

[sonic plover]

How is a Perun tough to operate

On what planet

[elder anchor]

You’ve literally already named one reason

Also more finicky install

Objectively

[sonic plover]

Until you put a Titan in and the trigger sensor gets too much light

Also oh wow “legitimate tech”

Because that instantly makes them the authority

[elder anchor]

“My m18 shoots randomly I promise I didn’t just ND into the ground I’m a respected officer!”

You vibes rn

[limber flame]

i meannnnn

[sonic plover]

What the fuck are you on about

[elder anchor]

When you do something professionally above the level of your average Reddit tech you gain an opinion

[elder anchor]

You wouldn’t get it

[elder anchor]

POST PROOF I DARE YOU

[sonic plover]

Anyone can be a tech “professionally”

[elder anchor]

No

[sonic plover]

Yes

[elder anchor]

No.

[sonic plover]

That doesn’t make any sense at all

[elder anchor]

“Anyone can be a tech”

[sonic plover]

Pretty sure charging for tech services is slightly easier then getting into the fucking White House

[limber flame]

anyone can be a tech

[elder anchor]

Only if they are in a good position to take it up as a profession

[limber flame]

just not a good one

[limber flame]

incorrect
i broke in last week

[sonic plover]

I did it in Jan

[elder anchor]

Bro forgot how analogies work

[sonic plover]

Bit late

[sonic plover]

Cause that’s a dogshit analogy

[elder anchor]

No it conveys the point to an extreme

That’s.. what an analogy is

Not necessarily but yk yk

[sonic plover]

No, that’s hyperbole

[elder anchor]

noun
a comparison between one thing and another, typically for the purpose of explanation or clarification

Hence why I said not necessarily

[river bison]

🍿AEG owner activities

[elder anchor]

Making me google definitions you clown

[velvet pagoda]

Its pretty good

It can even shoot 0.12 in a straight line pretty damn far

[velvet pagoda]

Its awesome how loud it is

I only paid $150 for it with charger and stuff

[hushed yoke]

[elder anchor]

That’s fair

I sometimes understand why people run loudeners on airsoft guns

[velvet pagoda]

Its cool because it sounds less like a gearbox launching a bb and more of an instant popping sound

[smoky thunder]

1. Brexit moment

Sorry blud I just had to

[rugged salmon]

I have a gate mosfet in my gun rn not a Titan I think it’s an aster or somthin but it was working fine even when I was shoving a flashlight beam into it so either the titans sensors are different or this guy just don’t know what he’s talkin about

[elder anchor]

People like to shit on expensive things

Especially expensive things that get used a lot

Because believe it or not when something gets wide spread use people find problems

You won’t have any problems with gate mossys 9 times out of 10

[elder anchor]

[elder anchor]

Britards find Uk shitting funnier than anyone else

It’s more than cool G

[elder anchor]

Instant pop is for people who are just after the shooting people aspect of airsoft

Plus I’ve grown to despise gearbox whine

But it’s cool you appreciate it icl

[velvet pagoda]

I only use my guns for plinking

[rugged salmon]

ye

[velvet pagoda]

Are airsoft pistols that are battery powered rare or hard to get

[rugged salmon]

nails on a chalk board lol

[rugged salmon]

nah

[velvet pagoda]

Because i dont want to waste my money on co2 and more green gas

[elder anchor]

Rare because they’re shit

[rugged salmon]

im pretty sure theres a deacent amount on evike

[elder anchor]

Buy propane duster gas instead of green gas

[rugged salmon]

idk about the eu

[velvet pagoda]

I have 2 green gas pistols that arent very impressive
