airsoft

[elder anchor]

Truth

[sour mango]

Yup

That's an old video mate

[vale compass]

Damn

[river bison]

@elder anchor fuck my FLUX kit won’t ship until early august

Lame

I was so ready

[sour mango]

@elder anchor this is how it looks rn

[elder anchor]

Just need some trades on the Unity riser

[elder anchor]

Fuckkk man

Where’ve you bought it from

[river bison]

Trying to keep it a secret for now so It doesn’t sell out

[sour mango]

It has em on other side

[river bison]

Bi tone is the way to go for URGI

[quasi nest]

Thats an nice collection you got there actually!

[river bison]

I’m trying to think of another build

[elder anchor]

Fair

[quasi nest]

Get a pistol :trollface:

[river bison]

I already have several

One is getting the FLUX raider conversion in august

[glossy frost]

Airsoft is super cool I've lowkey always wanted to get into it, but it seems like it's a lot of to invest

[crystal rover]

Ever heard of sleeping?

[vale compass]

Bruh

[elder anchor]

Got to spend your money somewhere

Don’t go out boozing for a few weeks and magically you have money for a nice RIF and kit

[sour mango]

no reason to lash out bunch of money right away, go rent out gear, enjoy it and if you stick to it then consider buying

[rugged salmon]

hey is it generally fine to have your new nozzle replacement be slightly longer than your stock nozzle?

[river bison]

I hate how low the zip on sits

[limber flame]

im curious
do you run your actual tubes during games

[river bison]

Only when it’s late afternoon to nights

[limber flame]

fair enough

[river bison]

I use some thick sac lenses

On my nods to prevent bb strikes

[crystal rover]

very nice

[dense marsh]

desert eagle

[elder anchor]

You got a suppressor holster???

[elder anchor]

Smesert omegel

[river bison]

Honestly no lol, I never really run it with supressors

This was just a test fit because all of this is going on the flux

[elder anchor]

Been curious about how people find those T.rex arma suppressor holsters

[river bison]

Might as well

[elder anchor]

Look pretty good tbf

[elder anchor]

Good point

[ionic forge]

I dont think its enough

[queen pendant]

my m17 from Sig almost always jammed and broke like 3 times

[river bison]

Lol mine works flawlessly

Both of them infact

[normal bluff]

what ver 3 hopup should i get

[river bison]

https://youtu.be/fj8pKaSneV0 @queen pendant

[queen pendant]

im sure i probably just got a bad one off the line but i got a 1911 instead

maybe its because i used the green gas mags

[river bison]

I use green gas mags

Lol

I used to use green gas mostly but then started using propane

[queen pendant]

dunno mine just didnt work i dont really know why so i returned it

i might get another to try again

but for now ill stick to my 1911 which has yet to fail hasnt jammed once

[rugged salmon]

I feel like jams aren’t too common in airsoft I’ve never had one or rly seen many people have them

Lol my mosfet died before I got a jam

[slate leaf]

Jams are rare

[crystal rover]

For what gun

[normal bluff]

lct lts

13.5 in barrel

ive already got a kythera in it

[crystal rover]

Basically fucked, in my experience lct doesn’t like after market hopups

[normal bluff]

damn

[river bison]

PDW gang

[eternal kindle]

Ayo let’s go

[eternal kindle]

Damn you got some play money

[river bison]

@eternal kindle

[eternal kindle]

Is that the KWA gbb?

[river bison]

Yeah

[eternal kindle]

You got all the goods

Gib

Plz

[river bison]

@eternal kindle

This thing is loud

[eternal kindle]

Damn

[crystal rover]

@eternal kindle I have been trying for awhile, he won’t budge

[crystal rover]

new mp9 nozzle is hear after it blew its current one wednesday

Old vs new

[limber flame]

thats a lil uhhh

dirty

jesus

[river bison]

Mm it’s shooting better but for some reason the hop is worse than when the bucking first bloated

[eternal kindle]

I feel that

[tribal gyro]

Smol Upgrade to the SSR4, the 1x4 is Insanely Clean

[old latch]

Is that the 1-4x from Novritsch?

[elder anchor]

Looks like all Nov attachments

[old latch]

Quite surprised it's worth a damn then

[limber flame]

(its not)

[glacial drift]

Bro just bought a sack of shit 😭

[tribal gyro]

Yep

[tribal gyro]

Na, tested it last Saturday, was awsome

The 1x4 is insanly Clear and easy to adjust.

[sour mango]

Novritch aeg's are pretty much rebranded vfc with more upgrades and his attachments are probably some Chinese rebranded stuff

[tribal gyro]

Even if so? If it works it works smh

[old latch]

That attachments I don't mind but the guns are often trash, maybe the SSR4 is the best among them. Doesn't compete with eg Specna Arms Edge but it's not complete garbage
On the other hand they sell sniper rifles that have such bad hopups they are basically useless. The SSR 15 is stupid expensive and shoots like trash because the internals are a joke. Plastic nozzle in a 500€ or so gun...
Not hating on Novi buyers, just saying that you should know what you are buying and that you can spend your money a lot better if you wanted to

[river bison]

Lol I haven’t seen you in awhile

[river bison]

Bro wtf you talking about, you mean rebranded lancer tac no way in hell his shit is rebranded VFC unless you are just over exaggerating

[elder anchor]

The originals were

Just with different bodies

The new shit is more akin to upmarketed Specna Arms with worse bodies

[glacial drift]

Yeah I got into shoes and terraria and a bunch of other stuff and remembered about my airsoft stuff

[river bison]

Man did terraria get some new shit

[old latch]

Idk about the M4s but the "G36" is rebranded JG with fancy rails. If it were Specna at least it might be decent

[limber flame]

his newest was lancer

[elder anchor]

[elder anchor]

Rails and an ETU. That’s definitely gonna last.

[frozen raven]

Just ordered my first pistol

What I believe is a beretta cheetah copy from WE

[rapid wolf]

glocks 🤤

[frozen raven]

Derivative and boring as always, if a mundane mid pistol that everybody and their grandmother has, a Glock copy is your gun!

[rapid wolf]

right on LMAO

if u dont know what to get just get a glock

[frozen raven]

only one id want to get is a long boi 34

or one of the 18c clones

[main rampart]

Ik you sent this in the morning but do you think Novi snipers are worth? I have been wanting an airsoft bolt action for a while but idk what I should buy

[river bison]

@limber flame lol I love dealing with fucking fat fucks in that other chat

[limber flame]

its funny aint it

[low umbra]

☠️

[rapid wolf]

34s are nice

[rugged salmon]

Lol what other chat

Also w kwa build

[low umbra]

bruh

[rugged salmon]

Beautiful isn’t it?

Had to keep the weight down so I got rid of the trigger

[low umbra]

worth it

[oak ginkgo]

cheers for suggesting this, finally arrived today.

[honest meadow]

Next thing would be a nice lpvo or red dot

[old latch]

If you want something that works out of the box, no. The main issue is the hopup which is really bad and makes the BBs fly everywhere except where you want them to. If you want to put in the additional money to fix that, I believe the rest is decent.
If you want the specifics, I can hit up a buddy that owns one, personally I'm not too much into bolt actions (yet)

[frozen raven]

Based

[oak ginkgo]

I’ve got a UH-1 vortex on the way

fell in love with it on tarkov so I got one for my gun

[rugged salmon]

clone or real deal?

[river bison]

I love the Uh-1

[oak ginkgo]

clone unfortunately

im too poor for the real deal

[rugged salmon]

ye i mean its airsoft so gettin the real one would kinda be a waste

[oak ginkgo]

yeah

i live in ireland too so its not like ill ever actually need a real one for a real gun

[rugged salmon]

also i heard the real one is a bit wonky compaired to the eotech

[rugged salmon]

yeah lol

[frozen raven]

Who tf uses real optics on airship guns?

[elder anchor]

Glad you kept it on there

[elder anchor]

People with money

[river bison]

Yeah honestly it’s the best optic for it

[chrome osprey]

new item unlocked for your kit, QD Vape :

[river bison]

Lmao

[frozen raven]

idiots with spare money you mean

[elder anchor]

Same as the rest of us, just more of the spare money

[crystal rover]

What engine

[river bison]

@crystal rover this one has a jack on it

[elder anchor]

why haven’t I heard krill issue before

[frozen raven]

Me when I spend +$100 on an optic only to have it shot out with a $0.01 BB (I get very upset at the person who shot it because I was stupid enough to do this)

I do I just don’t think it’s worth spending the same amount of money of an optic as I would the gun

If you don’t own something that would actually warrant a optic why would you bother spending the money to get one

Unless you like to collect optic for fun not really

A weapon that shoots accurately enough to make it make sense

Bro really think his airshit gun can even make use of a 3moa optic

Imagine

If your gun is incapable of being predictable in where the projectile lands(MOA) when why the hell would you use an optic that can consistently hold a lower MOA zero

Especially if you are paying out the nose for it

Doesn’t add up

We play fucking gun games with toy guns

Get a grip dude why do you need a 300 dollar optic

for some shit that will never use even a piece of its potential

congrats the toy gun can shoot point shooting distance 👍

Yikes

You goofy ass spent at least $170 on a pre I’ve of sheet plastic turned over on itself

Nah I’m just laughing at you

[rapid wolf]

if u have the money go crazy

but ppl shouldnt be shamed for not having the money to go all out and decide to get a cheaper option

[frozen raven]

I just think it’s goofy as fuck especially when it comes to holsters

I could make a better product with a heat gun and sheet plastic

[frozen raven]

when my handgun arrives i will make one for it

a rentetion mechanism isnt super hard def not +170 dollars hard

you are paying for a consensus that it wont fail not material quality the materials cost les that 2 dollars to produce and shape

as you are someone who has no use for most of these qualities i am glad you have no buyers remorse

[honest meadow]

Bruh why u care how much he payed we R all playing airshit at the end of the say he can buy whatever he wants and if it makes him happy doesn't matter if its expensive

[tribal tree]

My airsoft gear

[frozen raven]

i mean are you doing para jumps or facing IR using threats

[tribal tree]

Yes

[frozen raven]

not you goofy

bro need to protect his sensitive skin from bbs

dro big stupid

[tribal tree]

Technically nothing on this is useful

I do it because I like to play dress up

[frozen raven]

based response

this conversation would have ended ages ago if mf didnt take himself seriosly

[tribal tree]

Like most of the kit is real
Actually all of it

There's no reason for me to use a crye top for it

But I do, because I can

[frozen raven]

if mf didnt start listing of "im mr operator" reasons for owning expensive bullshit i wouldnt have cared

bro dead ass think he an operator

fucking ROTC

L

also not a job

lol whats your job that has you going against NVG wearing marauders

if you say security i am going to piss myself laughing

capping had as fuck

show me this shit is real lol

show me any documentation that this is a legit program and ill believe you

you are employed right?

isnt this a program run by the MOD

idk dude this just looks like some cadet his phone down in an exersize

a government doesnt just "outsource" to people they have a program or charter

did a man in a suit come up to you and got "listen champ i see your migthy good with a rifle wanna play bad guy with our military"

im not asking for a whole lot just a independent source that says that this is in fact a reall program role or job

like a news organization doing a story on this or an advert

simple stuff

a pamphlet maybe

[river bison]

This is more common than you think lol we do the same thing for JRTC and NTC

We hire opfor

[frozen raven]

im not sayign it vever happens

[river bison]

Robin sage which is part of the SF q course hires opfor as well

[frozen raven]

do you even get a side arm or put your real optic on these weapons?

[river bison]

Why judge I do the same thing lol

Rather use real shit on airsoft

Let people do whatever they want it’s their money

[frozen raven]

bro acts like if you use anything other than the best real kit you are some poor invalid for buying shit at a price range that makes sense for toy guns shooting a people dressed up as soldiers

[tribal tree]

Real airsoft kit

[frozen raven]

you constantly calling mfs poor when they dont

its is lol you can play fine and compatibly without even an optic

[river bison]

I’m on the camp of whatever you have works since it’s airsoft. Unless you are doing MSW or something haha

[frozen raven]

only requirements to play airsoft is clothes, a gun and eyepro

with the way you freaked out when i asked why you would buy a multi hundred dollar optic for a toy gun it sure as hell sounded like it

[river bison]

Like do you think my AOR1 AVS is a real AVS? Hell no lol I just picked the best quality replica I can because that camo is hard as shit to find also prohibitively expensive. But you can be assured all my multicam shit aren’t repros.

[frozen raven]

hey, guy. its a toy gun shooting plastic pellets max 100 yards

i dont need a 300 dollar optic with ranging up too 300

i dont get what is so hard to grasp

[river bison]

Speaking of which

Big oof

This was last year tho

[frozen raven]

real or a repro optic?

[river bison]

Real lmao

[frozen raven]

repro?

damn look exhibit A

right here

[river bison]

Granted

Someone was being a bitch

Shooting hot

And aiming for people’s optics

[tribal tree]

@river bison see its broken you should just give it to me now

[river bison]

We banned that dude from the field

[frozen raven]

my condolences

[river bison]

If you want real shit for airsoft get vortex because they cover bb shots

For their warranty

Eotech does not

[frozen raven]

based

[river bison]

Lol

[frozen raven]

also based

i approve of both schools of thought

[river bison]

That’s why I prefer the UH-1

[frozen raven]

"mfs are gonna use thes on toy guns gotta cover that"

[tribal tree]

@river bison yeah with all the paper work

[river bison]

Because it can just be replaced

[river bison]

[frozen raven]

"if mfs use this on toy guns they can fuck themselves"

[river bison]

Someone did this with their strike eagle

[tribal tree]

@river bison heres my trade offer

[frozen raven]

did you cut a full size helmet into a high cut?

[tribal tree]

Yes

[frozen raven]

second question, why

besides looking cool

[tribal tree]

Literally because I could

[frozen raven]

the intrusive thoughts won 💀

[tribal tree]

I dont like how my comtacs feel under an ach

[frozen raven]

peel your skin, there are bugs under there

you can feel them crawling, you know it, stop ignoring the problem and fix it

[river bison]

Nice socks nerd

[frozen raven]

does bro have the champion slides on?

[tribal tree]

LISTEN

I didn't need shoes for the shoot

[river bison]

@tribal tree

[tribal tree]

WAAA WAAAA WHY DO YOU BUY/DO THINGS

Because I can

[river bison]

I don’t need pants for a zoom meeting either.

Lol

[tribal tree]

Brand shoot

Alr enough photo leaks

[frozen raven]

bro is living the dream making money on his drip

[river bison]

I’m prob gonna do a ROK SEAL setup next

[tribal tree]

I'm just a silly little cosplayer :3

[river bison]

I got patches from the ROK Seals we worked with

[frozen raven]

make money-> buys drip -> uses drip in photo shoot-> repeat

[river bison]

Yeah it’s saggy because of how the AVS zip sitting low on the carrier

I don’t mind it much but I’m looking for alternatives

[frozen raven]

shout out to the army participation patch for existing

[river bison]

Haha

[frozen raven]

my favorite one ong

[river bison]

Technically it’s the HQDA patch

People at the pentagon wear it

Even Sergeant Major of the Army

[frozen raven]

wait really?

[river bison]

Yup

[tribal tree]

I'm basically an sf operator

[frozen raven]

mfs walking around looking like BCT graduates

very cool though i did not know that

[river bison]

Yeah except these dudes have ranger tabs and SF tabs

Maybe even sapper tabs

[tribal tree]

@river bison I found my local sf unit

[frozen raven]

nice

[tribal tree]

I am not running no 13 minute 2 mile😭

[river bison]

Hahaha

Yeah that shit is difficult

I broke myself trying to meet that standard

[tribal tree]

I can do almost everything else

But a 13 minute 2 mile????

FUCK NAH😭😭😭

I got sum work to do bruh

[river bison]

That’s a 7.5 min pace

That’s fast as shit

[tribal tree]

Yeah im at like 9-10 rn

[river bison]

For ranger it’s 5 miles in 40 mins

[tribal tree]

Yeah thats what's there💀💀

Imma

Wait off and work a lil more

[river bison]

Sometimes they will work out with you

If you ask

[tribal tree]

I wonder whatelse I gotta do im reading up on it n shit

Because if I do this it's a full send

[rapid wolf]

man i could do a 6min mile in hs but not anymore 😭

[light oxide]

For pushups is there a time limit ?

[elder anchor]

Post kit

[river bison]

Within 2 mins

[low fog]

my toxic trait is thinking this is easy despite being out of shape

[tribal tree]

Real asf

[wind parrot]

kinda seems like you guys are arguing the same thing against eachother

[frozen raven]

My 2016 dated vest capable of stoping 7.62x51 steel core P80 blacktip on the front or stomach plate costs a maximum of 30 dollars more than his holster

[crystal rover]

It may stop the round but say goodbye to your rips

[frozen raven]

like most plates lol

[frozen raven]

3 GOST marked with the same pattern vest and plates stopping api 308 hits in multiple video tests

I hate to source this guy but oxide did a test on this vest and it stopped both 308p80 and 308 api

for helmets I understand but for vest they are literally meant to stop rounds

Have you ever considered, even just for a little bit that perhaps just perhaps, sometimes things are overbuilt and exceed one standard but don’t exceed another

Also that the rating applies only to the steel plate and not to the cm of aramid behind it

Maybe not a cm tbh

Also note there are two denser woven aramid panels on both the front and back that sit above the plate

on the API and p80 shot the plate was penetrated but the round fragmented and was caught by aramid layers

Absolutely lol

The new issued ones are sometimes marked training 💀

[elder anchor]

A: built like mum just bought you a happy meal for your 14th birthday
B: EMR T-shirt + M81 pants is the biggest L that I could possibly think of

[elder anchor]

Irrelevant it’s oxide

Been proven to be full of bollocks

[frozen raven]

Source: trust me bro everyone else said so

[frozen raven]

It’s made of random bullshit I’ve collected since i was like 12 guy

Me when a vest meant to be used against ballistic threats is tested against with ballistic threats

[elder anchor]

Me posing to take a picture with the guy who’s crying on the floor because I spend money on real gear for airsoft

[frozen raven]

You are actually disabled

Comically inbred

[elder anchor]

You are not just disabled, but poor my friend

[frozen raven]

Damn missed again

I get why you disregard his helmet tests but that is literally what a vest is for

[elder anchor]

But he still isn’t scientifically testing fucking anything

So

I don’t care

[frozen raven]

Bro needs lab tests, fuck practical field test

[elder anchor]

The best reason to have the gear you do is “for the vibe” but arguing that it is any way more practical to wear that bollocks for airsoft than real (good) gear we both know is false, so there is legitimate reason therefore to buy real shit

[elder anchor]

You’re an idiot

[frozen raven]

Congrats welcome to the real world

[elder anchor]

This just isn’t how tests work

[frozen raven]

Then when a helmet marketed as stopping rifle rounds is tested against rifle threats is tested with rifle threats you disregard it?

[river bison]

Funny enough is in the battlefield the most common GSW is in the limbs

Headshots are rare as shit

[frozen raven]

I would assume it’s shrapnel wound tbh

[elder anchor]

People out here advocating for true rifle rated ballistic helmets when nobody needs them

[elder anchor]

Very few helmets are rated to stop rifle rounds and when they are there is usually a clause

But no, “oxide shoots helmet from point blank with full length rifle and it DOESNT STOP IT with ACCEPTABLE BFF???”

[river bison]

That’s what irks me

[frozen raven]

I’m not disagreeing with you but your argument of whether oxides tests are usfule is that you disagree with the methods and threats

[elder anchor]

Read above

[frozen raven]

We aren’t talking about helmets this started when I referenced a test on a vest rated to stop rifle rounds, what’s you point?

[elder anchor]

Believe one of the ops helmets he tested was rated for x39 under a clause of like 300 meters

[elder anchor]

You just were

[river bison]

People subscribe to the call of duty mentality that headshots are always a sure thing

[elder anchor]

And I’ve already said his armour testing isn’t testing because it’s not in a controlled environment

[elder anchor]

People just don’t know what they’re talking about huh

[river bison]

Snipers don’t even aim for the head

Center mass is king

Source: I was the sniper section medic for awhile

Lmao

[frozen raven]

Yes because the value of the test was that it showed anecdotally that the plate coupled surrounding Material can stop API and p80 armor piercing rounds

[elder anchor]

Yeah but this guy says his soviet era armour will stop the x51 AP youre shooting at him lol

Because oxide tested it

[river bison]

Lmao

[elder anchor]

Annecdotal evidence is only considered when a large enough sample concurs

This is one oxide video

[river bison]

Also motherfuckers don’t realize that even if it doesn’t penetrate said helmet it will still fuck your skull. TBI is a hell of a thing a lot of people that do survive such a shot end up comatose for a hot minute with permanent damage

[frozen raven]

They don’t make sense

[river bison]

Lol this is why in TC3 head wounds are considered distracting injuries

You ain’t doing shit about that

[frozen raven]

You are fighting a straw man

There is not argument here

It’s a peice of outdated shit, thanks captain obvious

Really cleared my vision

[elder anchor]

Other than the armour A: doesn’t consistently stop the threat you’ve illustrated and B: is worse than most shit out there

[frozen raven]

We wouldn’t know though would we as there are no test on the combined system

In fact, all test are anecdotal we just shouldn’t test anything! After all it would take so many tests to prove anything at all!

[elder anchor]

Shut up dude

Please

[frozen raven]

Just don’t do it I mean look at NIJ it only take one testing to get a rating!

Unacceptable

Truly

SMH

I mean, only one lab shooting it a couple times?

Clearly anecdotal

[river bison]

SF dudes realized somewhere along the way that they can get away with doing direct action ops without an actual helmet

Lol Opscore ballistics get heavier eventually

The nods and battery pack and light on it makes it weigh nearly as much as an ACH

Not like you can put much on an ACH

A base plate and rino mount

Unless your unit has PSQ-42’s and forced you to duct tape that battery

Like they did in my last unit

[frozen raven]

They make some arc rail adapters but they aren’t great

Even for PASGT type helmets

indeed

About the same modularity as a ACH

You don’t have to cut to add the arc rails

It’s like a crown that secures around the shell

Like the ballistic face shield mounts

[river bison]

No

Most ACH’s has the center hole for the airborne base plate and the regular baseplates

[rapid wolf]

the only helmet i can look at and identify is a ulach

everything else looks the same to me

[frozen raven]

Bruh they banned him

[rapid wolf]

wait what lmao

[frozen raven]

They banned lamb

For the helmet struck video in which no one was hurt

And nothing nsfw was seen

[rapid wolf]

what helmet struck video

[frozen raven]

The one of the US soldier taking a round to the helmet and it stoping it

Like a skipping off the top sort of thing

[rapid wolf]

oh i think ive seen that

[frozen raven]

It’s a classic piece of combat footage

[elder anchor]

Moderators are fucking clowns lol

[frozen raven]

Indeed

[elder anchor]

Everything in this chat is fun and games

Like

Jesus Christ

[frozen raven]

Common mod L

[river bison]

Bruh what did I miss

[frozen raven]

lamb is gone mod team didnt like the helmet video

[river bison]

Ehhh

[river bison]

People are getting weeded out lol

[elder anchor]

Honestly

No one is gonna be left

Would call the mods pedos but my buddy has already found out what happens there

[rugged salmon]

Sheesh

Also @river bison I got a new cylinder head and changed the nozzle to a metal one does this sound pretty good for a 7.4?

Nvm the battery was dying lol so it prob sounds better charged

I think I might need to re shim the gears

Also just tested a 11.1 in it and sheesh it shoots fast

Imma prob upgrade some stuff so I can run one without killing my gun lol

[rugged salmon]

This is the 7.4 charged

[river bison]

Sounds good

Scar GBB

[rugged salmon]

nice i love scars

do you think it would be worth getting a double bell scar h and ripping the guts out?

[river bison]

If you HPA it I don’t see why not

That’s why I have 3 scars

[rugged salmon]

ye im to poor for hpa but just like replacing the trigger unit gears piston ect

[rugged salmon]

what brand r those?

[river bison]

VFC

[rugged salmon]

ok nice

but ye dude scars r hot

theyre in that goldie lock state in my opinion where theyre deacently rare on the field compared to m4 and stuff but common enough and compatible enough to have alot of upgrades/replacement parts

[smoky thunder]

Removed the magwell assist thing from my gun

It got perma-fucked as a result

Fuck wetech all my homies hate wetech

Anyone know if you can just hammer stamped steel back into place? Lol

[rugged salmon]

just gnaw it back into place

[smoky thunder]

Nah real shit this is bumming me out, I remove 2 screws and my receiver bulges as a result? Wtf

I feel like I wasted $450

[rugged salmon]

i mean you can prob find someone who knows what theyre doin and have them fix it

[smoky thunder]

Actually not a bad idea now that you mention it, thanks

[elder anchor]

Yes

It’s advised

[honest meadow]

Hammer

[old latch]

Since it's stamped I'd assume it's rather ductile so that should work. Maybe not advised but possible nonetheless

[smoky thunder]

Okay, this is good to hear

I feel a lot better knowing this now

Should I be worried about fucking up the internals at all in the process?

[rugged salmon]

It might be a good idea to take out the internals if possible

[smoky thunder]

That’s the plan, but just in case I can’t?

[rugged salmon]

tbh idk you'd probrably be fine is it a gas gun?

[elder anchor]

Don’t worry about it

[slate leaf]

and sickle

[fleet axle]

I still have alot more just a peek at my collection

[elder anchor]

Why not just take a picture with all of them in

[fleet axle]

cuz i dont have them all in one XD

lmfao

[fleet axle]

gonna half to take one soon tho

[elder anchor]

What

[fleet axle]

my guns i dont have a pic of all of them together

[river bison]

@fleet axle should put em on a wall

Like so

[fleet axle]

yeah i need to do this

[low umbra]

this is like end goal

[crystal rover]

Binary is mid

[elder anchor]

Gun of all time

[smoky thunder]

@rugged salmon @elder anchor @honest meadow @old latch tried the hammer route and it worked, thank you guys!!

Really appreciate it

[elder anchor]

The We tech classic, any time homie

[muted bloom]

why get several ARs that don't really differ from each other much and perform the exact same

never understood that

i can understand having one modern operator larp AR and another XM177 but just having multiple guns with very minor difference never made sense to me

[river bison]

Personally for mine it’s set up differently and I hate changing out accessories and optics

Also collecting

I wouldn’t run my Ranger stuff when I’m wearing my aor1 stuff

And wouldn’t run the seal stuff when I’m wearing my multicam/OCP’s

[muted bloom]

I like militia kits

[river bison]

Understandable

Very rarely I would wear a casual setup

[muted bloom]

I don't really take airsoft that seriously so i often wear one of those soviet rubber belts with a bunch of surplus pouches attached

i enjoy inconveniencing myself basically

[river bison]

Main reason why I don’t run casual or militia kits is I try to get abit of training value out of it

I wear my work stuff so I can condition myself or experiment what setup works and what doesn’t

Granted it doesn’t 100% accurately simulate the conditions I use my kit at work for but being able to shoot and move with the kit gives me the feedback needed for adjustments

I actually incorporated one of those QD retention kits on my plate carrier so I can keep my weapon closer to my body while slung

So I don’t get hit in the balls when I’m climbing shit with my weapons slungfor example

[muted bloom]

Yeah i don't think airsoft can even help in training, besides i am not punished by god to live on the cursed continent of north america, and can instead live in a safe finnish town, where i run into absolutely no trouble, i never need guns to defend myself, only for shooting for fun

maybe some milsim stuff can help but i don't see much training value in sunday skirmishes

[river bison]

Lol forgot to mention for context I’m in the army

[muted bloom]

ah ok makes sense

russian sunday games might work for training

they play airhard over there

just casually launching taginns and firing extremely hot on sunday games

they play airsoft much like how they drive

[rugged salmon]

nice love to hear it

i only have 1 airsoft gun i own and also have one more but its like a sharing one

[grizzled copper]

This is my first time stippling and wanting to turn this into a way to make some cash. Would y’all pay me to stipple or should I practice some more

[frozen raven]

I got some super lube silicone lube for my GBB guns

[crystal rover]

You def need some more practice

Also sand that shit down slightly

Gonna be cutting up you hand

[frozen raven]

^^^^

[buoyant cloud]

woah buddy sand that shit way more, and yes practice, good start though

[frozen raven]

Looks good but try smoothing it out /lowering the stipple hight

[grizzled copper]

Thank you, I sanded it in a few spots, doesn’t really bother my hands much. That was my first time so I am just gonna keep learning

[rugged salmon]

It would also look a bit better if you brought down the stipples to where the grip meats with the body

[tribal tree]

[frozen raven]

Bruh

[crystal rover]

It was the dudes to begin with

So meh

[frozen raven]

Got my first gas pistol

[river bison]

Gang gang

[surreal yarrow]

ZAMN want to buy myself some GBBR mp7 in the future to run with my sniper rifle I can already see the money vanishing

[river bison]

My HPA one is 700 bucks more expensive than the GBB one

[surreal yarrow]

my brother in christ are you mining diamonds as a means of income or wat

[river bison]

I’m in the army, I’m just smart with my money lol

[surreal yarrow]

jeez man u got my dream lineup need to make bread ASAP

for some reason my earlier msg got wooshed

[river bison]

It’s abit excessive at times

[surreal yarrow]

holy shit man u got the shits what can I say

[grizzled copper]

all those airsoft or are any of them real]

[slate leaf]

3 minutes into airsoft and chill and your battle buddy gives you this look

[slate leaf]

oh shit, you almost forgot to post this today

[honest meadow]

All of that stuff is airsoft

[grizzled copper]

really impressive

[river bison]

Optics are real, guns are airsoft my real ones are in the adjacent safe

[grizzled copper]

what reaL guns you have and waht you do in the army?

[river bison]

I have a 10.3in Geissele URGI with a super duty lower, a DDM4V7 and these pistols

[river bison]

Im a combat medic and i currently work at the ranger school in Ft. Moore/Benning

Hence the vandalized ranger tab in my pfp

[grizzled copper]

i wanna go ranger

[river bison]

Are you a high speed death machine stuck in a douchebag’s body?!!! Then Go to rrrrraaaannnggeerrrrr schoooool

[grizzled copper]

close family friend was delta, and he told me some very interesting things that interest me, so why not

[river bison]

Shits difficult

[grizzled copper]

when he got done with delta selection he had broken ribs, toes, walking pneumonia

[burnt night]

damn

[burnt night]

your ranks?

[hushed yoke]

your in the army (you have nothing to spend money on)

[river bison]

I’m also married lol

With my own house

But yeah let’s keep stereotyping

[crystal rover]

teh sterotype is "your in the army, you dont have money to spend"

learnt this from the marching song that goes

[tribal tree]

@river bison we do more cosplaying

[crystal rover]

"they give you a hundred and take back 99"

[crystal rover]

nice

[river bison]

Diversify your financial sources

Lol

Personally I take advantage of the system

Imo the best thing 'bout your loadout Is Partizan camo chest rig

[surreal yarrow]

I have the whole set too

Just don't wear it

[analog garnet]

Well, I wanted too, but I'm broke af after making MC setup for AK-74

[fossil tendon]

Just finished 3d modeling this hexgrid armor plate, shouldn't be as warm as a normal plate in the summer, gonna print it tomorrow and see how it turns out

anyone tested something like this before?

[honest meadow]

i mean aslong as its thick enough itll be fine novritchs vers seems to work great

but tbh just getting some nice pads on the inside of ur plate carrier should work well enough since the hex design works best when the plate carrier has vents cut into the acc plate bags themselves

[fossil tendon]

yea I was thinking of this as well, the current carrier I have right now is a very cheap one, and about to break so when it does I'm getting one with vents, and as long as these plates are strong enough I'll have them ready for the new one!

[river bison]

I’m at the verge of putting an F2 on a Classic Army MK46

[honest meadow]

do it no balls

[river bison]

Done just ordered lol

I need to hunt down a bullgear hopup for it tho

[honest meadow]

hpa lmg's r sick

[river bison]

I figured it was time

Lol

[honest meadow]

i need a pkm man

https://youtu.be/gGUxx7XHxOQ

[river bison]

Ironically enough the LMG DG kits are more reliable than the M4 kits

M4 Daytonas are finicky as fuck

[honest meadow]

id imagine theyd be thicker cause of the sustained fire

[river bison]

It’s literally made for 249’s like the classic army 249

Which has the chunkiest and best exterior for 249’s

I got a classic army mk46 lol

[honest meadow]

yea i prefer the mk46 over the 249's

[river bison]

I’m probably just gonna end up putting a grip pod on it

And removing the bipod

[honest meadow]

yea i like the look of grip pods on lmg's

i dont get the guys who run it on like short m4's and mp5's n stuff

[river bison]

I actually put it on my scar GBB for now

Lmao

To reduce weight

[honest meadow]

atleast thats got a long barrel tho

[honest meadow]

it looks good on their just some guns it rlly doesnt fit

[river bison]

My vector needs to break in the new hopup and bucking

[honest meadow]

put the drum in it and just dump a mag at the target

[river bison]

Lol

This is great

MP7 for secondary and a Mk46 for primary for milsims

This shit is loud as fuck with the osprey on

[river bison]

Bruh

Damn blood got shwacked

@tribal tree Mk46 build incoming

Finally HPA’ing a damn LMG

For once

[smoky thunder]

Wtf

When and why

Damn

#FreeB,lood

[river bison]

Yeah idk if he left or what

[rugged salmon]

Hey anyone know why the nozzle is doin this? (mute the audio its horrendous)

(Accidentally recorded in slow mo somehow mb)

could it be misaligned gears?

[river bison]

Lol

Bro retake the footage

I can’t even tell what’s going on

[rugged salmon]

kk

[rugged salmon]

Here

[river bison]

Is this semi

Or rather on semi

It sounds abit wrong it’s like it’s doing some weird 3 round burst mode

[rugged salmon]

thats on full but im tappin the trigger

same thing happens on semi but its more common on full

[river bison]

I think it’s ur trigger unit lol

I’m noticing you gotta press hard to get it to shoot or it takes a couple of squeezes

[rugged salmon]

yeah prob

whats the best non etu option?

bc its a stupid kwa :,))

and for some dumb reason they made a ver 2.5 gearbox

and its not compatible with budget etus

[rugged salmon]

also the nozzle doesnt go all the way foward how its supposed to

[river bison]

Yeah that’s literally the trigger dying out causing it to short stroke

[rugged salmon]

Yeah thats what I thought :,)) great lol

[rugged salmon]

Do you know where I can get a non etu trigger unit?

[river bison]

It’s an AEG it has to be electronic lol

[rugged salmon]

Oh nvm I meant like a non mosfet etu thing

[rugged salmon]

More like the ones stock aegs usually come with

[slate leaf]

@river bison how many gas guns do you have

Jesus

[winged lodge]

Anyone know some low profile goggles that don't fog ? I got a Dye mask but its too bulky for most of my hiding spot in my airsoft games

[rugged salmon]

how moist is your field area?

rn i have some lancer goggles and they do fine for like 20 somthin bucks

dont fog unless its raining and i live in florida lol

[winged lodge]

Rather moist, im in NZ, plus i sweat a lot since i got a heavy trench coat on most of the time

[rugged salmon]

ye the ones i use prob wouldnt work too well then

just use mesh goggles

[winged lodge]

i got recommended some Lynx glass, from block tectical, been told they are good

[rugged salmon]

:))

[winged lodge]

I like my eyes thanks you! Plus the guy at my field tend to be fucking accurate

[rugged salmon]

ye i havent heard of them

[rugged salmon]

nahhh mesh r fine lol

but fr who actually uses mesh

[winged lodge]

Well even if they were, they are banned at my field

[rugged salmon]

cant blame them lol

[winged lodge]

People who don't know and didn't look stuff up

[rugged salmon]

lol fr

[rugged salmon]

same at my field except they dont aim for the head... well the one above the shoulders

[winged lodge]

maybe if you have actual protection under it and the mesh is here for style but otherwise yeah, just people that don't know

[rugged salmon]

at that poit whats the point

also they look goofy

[winged lodge]

We can fire pretty much anywhere we like, we have a "don't be a dick rule" and if you don't follow it, pain will come your way in BB form

[winged lodge]

yup

[rugged salmon]

yeah same at my field

sadly though all the younger players tend to join the green team so there are many cheaters on a single side

florida sqeakers r built different lol

[winged lodge]

oh poor you. We divide new player with each time so they can have fun and have someone to guide them and young one need to be surpervised at all time and i think under 14 you can't even play

that help avoid stupid situation or cheating

[rugged salmon]

yeah lol, sadly there r like only three fields in all of florida and the one closest to me is the most hillbilly of them all

[winged lodge]

rip, luckily for me i am at one of the best club of NZ, the host national and they got a georgous field with plenty of lush vegetation and bush to hide in. Its heaven for a stupid guy like me that got a revolver first

[rugged salmon]

you'll have people firing shots in the parking lot (not at eachother) psychopaths that jump into stomach high rivers only to be lit up lol

and other crazys

[rugged salmon]

yeah I wish i had somthin like that here

[winged lodge]

damn, we have pretty strict rules for stuff like this but gotta admit, the river part, i can only respect

[rugged salmon]

there used to be alot of fields down here but covid shut most of them down

[rugged salmon]

the guy was like 38 decided to push through the river towards the cheating enemys that were in a zone they werent allowed to be in only to realize the game was over when he got to the other side

the guys was in shorts and a tshirt with a stock m4 and a single magazine lol

[winged lodge]

ah poor guy

[rugged salmon]

yeah felt bad lol

also had to talk one of my teamates out of trying to beat a guy bc he kept hitting him in his exposed face with what i think was a dmr at deacently close range lol

he still had goggles on thankfully

but both shots drew blood

[winged lodge]

that remind me, last week a hire guy got one of this front teeth chipped by a BB

[winged lodge]

yuck that suck

[rugged salmon]

the dmr guy was cheatin to we both hit him on multiple occasions the only reason he called the hit when i rushed him was bc he ran out of ammo

quote for quote he said "hey man i ran out of ammo but ggs any way" as i sprayed him through the window 5 ft away while he was looking in the opposite direction

[winged lodge]

That really suck, thanksfully we have little cheater at our field, almost none in fact. But people did think i was cheating once but not for not calling my hits

[rugged salmon]

yeah it seems like airsoft has better players in other countries

[winged lodge]

Its just i have a tendency to just hide and let the whole ennemy team go past me then appear behind them and shoot them in the back. In this gamemod the defender (which i was) couldn't move forward so since i was behind them they thought i moved forward

Funny time

[rugged salmon]

lol

[winged lodge]

But man i can't wait to buy another gun and upgrade from my revolver (i'll still use it tho)

[rugged salmon]

ye its a good strat

[winged lodge]

the worst part, even if i don't do shit for 15 minute, im having fun

[rugged salmon]

ye my next gun imma get is prob a double bell scar h and just rip out the guts and replace them with somthin viable

[rugged salmon]

ye

atleast it seems like you fought them lol

[winged lodge]

Usually i can do it 3 time before the game is over

but yeah, upgrading from a revolver to a semi auto pistol will be heaven for me

and yes i don't plan on getting a m4 or anything of the sort

[rugged salmon]

in the attack/defend modes we usually play the half the enemy team decided to hide ina building and only poke out at the end of the game to celebrate while our entire team didnt know they existed lol

[rugged salmon]

ye im probrably going to get another rifle before i get a sidearm but they seem pretty fun to use

[winged lodge]

The sidearms are my primary!

[rugged salmon]

yeah m4 r kinda boring

[winged lodge]

i plan to have minimum 3 on me at each time

[rugged salmon]

lol love to see it

W

[winged lodge]

but im broke for now so gotta wait

[rugged salmon]

yeah im probably going to have to get a job to support my addiction lol

but yeah this is my gun rn

[winged lodge]

im a student and i just started so yeah, i dn't even know when i'll be able to get a pistol

[winged lodge]

oh nice one

[rugged salmon]

Ye kinda like an m4 but unique enough to still be cooler than one lol

[winged lodge]

personnally not a fan of curved mags but i can see its nice

[rugged salmon]

It’s a beast with an 11.1 but sadly I can’t do a full game with one without it crapping itself but it’s pretty good on a 7.4

[rugged salmon]

Yeah I like the, bc they make the reloads fun and they hold more than m4 mid caps

[winged lodge]

i need to see if i have a pic of myself in my kit

[rugged salmon]

Before I changed the nozzle and cylinder head it was shootin around 345 with .3s so hopefully it’s not runnin to hot after the upgrades

[rugged salmon]

Ye I love full kits I don’t have one yet just a plate carrier

[winged lodge]

hopefully yeah. My revolver (which i use 28 with) has a minimum engagement distance of like 5 meter and its a few fps away from being the category above of a minimum engagement distance of 10 meters away and needing a sidearm to use

[rugged salmon]

Lol

[winged lodge]

its not a common kit and its not very tactical. hell im still missing one part to make it full

[rugged salmon]

Lol nice

[winged lodge]

don't have a pic without my face

and too lazy to censor it

[rugged salmon]

Imma get a better cummerbund for it eventually

[rugged salmon]

Lol I feel ya

[winged lodge]

but basically im using an australian trench coat, cowboy hat, brown pants and a leather belt to store my shells

[rugged salmon]

Nice

Lol last time I went to my field I saw this guy probably mid 40’s run in around with Star Wars guns dressed as Han solo

The guy was a legend

[winged lodge]

Style is everything

If you can't dunk on people while looking good, why bother

[slate leaf]

the chinese hacker on labs when the PKM gets added

[honest meadow]

That's how every hallway on every map will be

[honest meadow]

did u end up finding more mags for the 308?

@chrome osprey

[chrome osprey]

I sold it

bought the M4 to replace it, with 5 mags

[honest meadow]

r.i.p m4 still looks great tho

[chrome osprey]

I couldn't find mags beside the ARES shop and I wasn't gonna pay 75€ in shipping for it.

[honest meadow]

love the geiselle smr mk4 rail so much it looks so good

[chrome osprey]

Bronze and Geiselle, the two reason why I bought ARES again

And I sold the AR for the price of the M4 so it was a good trade. I'm happy, my friend's happy, all is good

[slate leaf]

im not happy

[chrome osprey]

why ?

[heavy cypress]

c4

[river bison]

Lol fuckin ares is annoying too HPA

My APC-9K has an amoeba style gearbox and it was a nightmare

[chrome osprey]

HPa is way out of my budget so I don't really care atm we'll see later

[river bison]

It’s def an indoor gun

[muted bloom]

get a cantilever mount man

[ember fractal]

anyone here have a SSR4? and if so how many 11.6 lipo do you think i would need for a day of airsoft (never played before, big paintball guy)

[honest meadow]

1

2 if ur really trigger happy

same for any aeg

[ember fractal]

thanks m8, i do play speedball so thats more my style, get two for safety or if im in semi the whole time i g?

[honest meadow]

you'll be fine for the most part

asloong as the games arent going on for hours like mislims you'll be good

[muted bloom]

i have had one 11.1v last me for several days

although that's mostly because we don't really use respawns on our fields

there's occasional medic respawns but no running back to spawn and back to magdumping people

[frozen raven]

The only gbb lube you need

[slate leaf]

I keep 3 tubes on standby

[frozen raven]

i got some PTFE oild from them comming for my gbb pistol

[still cape]

Lol

[frozen raven]

i will add that he is actually printed on every tube

[slate leaf]

yet another unrealistic body standard for men

[frozen raven]

WHY CANT I BE LIKE HIIM!!!

[rugged salmon]

i keep several on me at any given time

you never know when youll need em

[river bison]

Man I miss blood and lamb

[frozen raven]

RIP lamb

Dunno the other but he must be a real one

Why did they have to go but the white nationalist patch wearers stay

[rugged salmon]

i wonder if theres a patch for this lol

[frozen raven]

If not there needs to be

It would have to be a larger size one to capture the characters power and pose

[river bison]

I wish there were decent indoor places here

That isn’t speedsoft hell

[rugged salmon]

dont we all

rn there is a singular indoor field in florida

now youd think there would be more bc the sheer heat and humidity we have here BUT NOPE

[smoky thunder]

They zucked lamb too??

[river bison]

Yup

[smoky thunder]

Wtf

[river bison]

People be getting purged for being spicy

[smoky thunder]

Mfs gotta stop being spicy

[fickle notch]

Finally built out my m4🤣

[river bison]

GBB?

Lol such a classic look

[fickle notch]

No AEG actually

[fickle notch]

I cant do GBBRs, just too much to deal with imo

[river bison]

I know how that feels lol

I ran my SCAR H GBB with 12 mags

It was hell

[fickle notch]

I could never💀, I run a agilite k19 with a hangar pouch and ferro concepts cummerbund. So I usually carry 5 mid-caps, 2 hi-caps, and if I'm running with my boys I'll usually just throw my drum in there to play support

[river bison]

I run these for airsoft these days, when I wear multicam I wear an FCPCV5 or a JPC 2.0

[fickle notch]

Nice, I run a ranger green plate carrier and combat top and just jeans or cargo shorts depending on the day (it's texas and summer is >100 and humid)

[river bison]

Where at Texas

I’m in fort benning/moore atm we have a field inside the base

It’s humid as balls

[fickle notch]

North of Austin, I play at TXPB in Jonestown

[river bison]

Ahh

I was in El Paso before this place

Fort bliss

[fickle notch]

Nice

[smoky thunder]

Looks good

Also, is that a fellow stalker I see?

[fickle notch]

Perhaps😈

[crystal rover]

@river bison someone wants to trade a like new vfc 416 for one of my mp9s, do i do it

[river bison]

Yes

That’s actually a good deal

Those VFC 416’s are good OOB

[crystal rover]

i am doing

need to fix up the mp9 first tho

also fyi

i got said mp9 for $20

and am putting like 34 in replacement parts to make it less likely to dip

and break

[rapid wolf]

is the vfc hk416 an a5 variant?

[crystal rover]

I think so

[rapid wolf]

icic

iirc the a5s dont have that curved part on the top end of the gun

not having that curved part on a 416 feels wrong to me for some reason lol

[neon rover]

very wip kit, gonna get comtacs instead of these m32s soon probably

wrong camo pants cause i dont have any multicam ones yet

[honest meadow]

atacs supremacy

[neon rover]

💪

my local milsim has a team that wears atacs so i might use this kit for that

[honest meadow]

android cameras r so dookie man

[chrome osprey]

Tbh i'd stick with ATACS

Your kit looks nice with it. add some visual and useless, but cool things to it, don't go MC

[honest meadow]

yea we need less multiglam in the world

[crimson walrus]

Does anyone have suggestion for a first field ready airsoft gun on a budget?

[honest meadow]

i'd say pick between a m4 and ak

[crimson walrus]

Thanks

[honest meadow]

most common and easiest to find parts for

[neon rover]

hell yea

might put an od cover on my helmet

[neon rover]

defender 2 looks awesome

[honest meadow]

yea waiting till october to get a zsh-1-2m

then im saving for a pkm to be the support gunner in our team

[neon rover]

sweeett

[honest meadow]

tbh if ur going with muticam kit keep that cover thats on it

[neon rover]

going for atacs

[honest meadow]

full atacs kit?

[neon rover]

probably gonna keep the softshell jacket on instead of full atacs

[honest meadow]

that'd be similar to our team we set up or gear like the BEAR pmc's from the raid series

[muted bloom]

that's just kinda the deal with indoor fields

[chrome osprey]

gotta love the tactical chatterton

[muted bloom]

luckily my two main fields are outdoors but still have cqb areas, and woods, there's a wide variety of places for wide variety of playstyles

and the cancer known as speedsoft does not really exist in finland either

people are more milsim oriented here

[fickle notch]

Yeah, I love my field because it's completely outdoors but has trenches and 2 story buildings and cars and all that

[muted bloom]

oh that's awesome

[fickle notch]

Super fun other than the 100 degree texas weather

[muted bloom]

here we have some trenches, huts in the woods, and some areas with more huts that are close to each other

there's also some pillboxes and generally a lot of hiding spots too

very versatile field

[fickle notch]

Nice

Ours is separated into a bunch of playing areas because it gets kinda busy, most people I've ever seen in one day was like 130-140, but they've got everything

Hell they've got a whole ass airplane on one of the fields

[muted bloom]

we don't have the kind of funding to get airplanes, as the organization running the field does not seek profit, but instead to just be able to provide airsoft as accessibly and affordably as possible, most of our income comes from an event we host every year as well as donations

[fickle notch]

Oh cool

[muted bloom]

most finnish airsoft fields and events are ran that way

[fickle notch]

Our field makes a large portion of their money off rentals and birthdays and paintball and such

[muted bloom]

only like a couple fields in helsinki are commercial

[fickle notch]

But for those of us with our own gear it's $25 for a whole day, plus whatever ammo or gas we buy if we need any

So it's nothing to crazy

[muted bloom]

5 euros a day here, but you can buy a membership for an entire year for 40 euros

and then you can play on every game for the following year, as well as get discounts from some stores

[fickle notch]

Damn

Is airsoft big in Finland?

[muted bloom]

Really popular

and the community is really nice too

on my local field, we don't have any weirdos thinking they are actual soldiers in a warzone, everybody takes the game easy, and has fun, people are really helpful too
