airsoft

[sinful agate]

New paint job

[river bison]

Is that an LCT ZK series?

Also this is so dumb all the CQB bolts or parts to lower the MP7’s FPS are all sold out everywhere

[sinful agate]

No it's just a regular ak105 but I did but zenit co parts after

[river bison]

Ah ok

I ordered the 74 version with zenitco parts

I even ordered the Rk3 slim grip with upgraded motor

I’m so excited to put it together when I get back from Knox

33 more days

Gahhh

[crystal rover]

i like it but i dont at the same time

uh-1 doesnt fit but looks nice

also zenit 🤮

but nice

[sinful agate]

Thanks, each to their own

Not even my gun

[river bison]

What muzzle device is that

And is on evike

The one I have is the PBS suppressor

[sinful agate]

Bulgarian krinkov flash hider

[outer saffron]

It is...

[tribal wren]

its a colt M4

THESE are m16's

[copper rain]

Airsoft sundayy

[golden onyx]

wth, just found them too

[meager pewter]

Just got a .300 blackout mcx airsoft gun or I guess a G&G “hog”

Not bad for my first airsoft gun

Gonna get a rds for it later

[crystal rover]

Not the 3rd one

That’s a m4 carbine

Shut yo goofy as up

Actually might just be a regular m4a1

[tribal wren]

ohhhh my lawd

[elder anchor]

Fun and games in the rain.

Was a mistake to wear jeans

[valid gull]

looking at all of these airsoft guns I am 100% convinced these cost more and are more functional as a weapon than what the army wants to issue me

[junior sedge]

Let me guess
Eastern European

[zinc bramble]

DA 14.5 M16!

[elder anchor]

my guns shit dude, may look nice, but its shit.

[sinful agate]

fixed stock gang

[valid gull]

central european

[sinful agate]

I got an offer to buy an aeg krytech kris's vector for $350

Not sure if I should...

[atomic ingot]

My dad has one and it’s super fun, quite heavy though for the size

The mid caps springs are iffy tho and sometimes certain bbs don’t feed the best

Just something to be aware of but he uses it all the time as a secondary for sniping

[vital tree]

looks like something from COD lol

[frank sphinx]

Terrible

2 round burst is iffy at best

[frank sphinx]

If you get it make sure to get the extended battery cap

[sinful agate]

it comes with it

[frank sphinx]

Ah

I mean I’d get it

But that’s just cause I want 2 vectors lol

[maiden hedge]

Anyone have a good starting gun to get that isn’t too pricy?

[crystal rover]

whats 2 pricey for you

also location in the world?

[maiden hedge]

US, IL

Like over 300 is too pricey

[crystal rover]

cyma platinum

great guns

and liek 250ish

can get a m4, mp5 or ak version

[maiden hedge]

I see

Any half decent ones that are under 100?

[crystal rover]

nope

[zinc bramble]

you should recommend specna edges before cyma platniums

the mosfets in cyma platniums are bad

[zinc bramble]

gbb pistol if you're playing indoors is more than ok as a starter

revision desert locusts or ess land ops on ebay for eye pro

bls bbs

[crystal rover]

the old ones yeah

new mosfets in cyma platis are good

the gen 3s

[near ferry]

Eyyy nice specna arms. Older or new gen?

[gray python]

(censor cuz messy)

[clear leaf]

Ayy didn't know we have an airsoft channel! Here's my loadour

[near ferry]

🔥

[slate leaf]

Cyma platinum 2.5 internals are kinda nice :>

Though I just installed a new cylinder that isn't ported and will replace the rest of the compression parts later. Nozzle/cyl head needed teflon tape it was so leaky

[clear leaf]

I put a Swiss cheese piston in my maruader and its sooo buttery

[frank sphinx]

Pyramex I forces work great too

[sinful agate]

Atac fg is an awesome camo

[clear leaf]

Thanks man! Everyone here goes Multicam so I wanted to be a little different, I think it works better in most fields we play anyways

[viral zinc]

is that a AEP

wtf

anyone has a arp build?

[limber flame]

the gearbox?

[zinc bramble]

Those are solid too yeah

[elder anchor]

Edge 1.0 so i guess older gen, saw the mag im guessing?

[clear leaf]

my buddy has a m249 bravo on a daytona system

I was simping hard

[clear leaf]

I didn't find the I max's all that great personally.. I have two pairs of Revision Sawflys and theyre much better

[frank sphinx]

I mean…. They are like 10x the price, I would hope they preform better

[clear leaf]

Surplus store by my house sells them for $13.. lol

[frank sphinx]

damnnnn

[clear leaf]

theyre used but theyre always good

whole club runs em, and I have $15 Standard issue boots lol

[frank sphinx]

I’ve been using ESS and those work well for me

[viral zinc]

no i saw a electric pistol

ive never see one

that like actually works

[clear leaf]

Get the EX Fog Motor for them!

[near ferry]

The mag and fake bolt

[cerulean flicker]

is it better to have a metal or plastic gun?

[viral zinc]

metal for strength

[sinful agate]

Depends, some real guns are made fully out of polymer (durable plastic) such as g36 and modern ak.

[viral zinc]

i have a arp 556 its mostly plastic and its really light and sturdy

[sinful agate]

And airsoft creates a almost 1:1 replica of the polymer bodys

[cerulean flicker]

does it feel nice and look good? or does it feel cheap

[oak bane]

Modern AKs still have a metal body

[sinful agate]

Yeah, should clarify that I meant furniture is polymer

[oak bane]

depends of the model, of the quality of the materials, and many other things

[sinful agate]

Either way, depending on the gun the guy likes, it may or may not be good in polymer

[oak bane]

yep

[viral zinc]

it feels good

[limber flame]

metal guns will inherently feel more solid

[viral zinc]

not heavy

[viral zinc]

IMO for competitive airsoft i would just get plastic

lot lighter and just as sturdy

[sinful agate]

I agree, polymer body saves a lot of weight compare to full metal

And they're just as durable in terms of airsoft usage

[viral zinc]

yeah i have a ARP 556 and its really good its mostly polymer ive had no problems w it

[limber flame]

after using metal body guns for almost half a decade now i cant go back to plastic

[viral zinc]

it feels sturdy and light

not cheap either

[limber flame]

just doesn't feel the same as steel or alu

[viral zinc]

metal does feel better tho

cause it feels more real

[limber flame]

i feel like i can fall on it and have it not snap

[sinful agate]

I can beat someone with a lct receiver and the person would probably break before the gun

[limber flame]

and considering outdoor field with wonky ground and rundown buildings i favour guns that are solid as fuck

[limber flame]

main reason

[viral zinc]

polymer doesnt break that easily

[limber flame]

i got an lct ak

[limber flame]

can still snap if you land on it

[viral zinc]

especially w the new types of polymer on airsoft guns

[limber flame]

especially AR buffertubes

the polymer body around where they connect is quite weak

no matter what you do

its rather thin

[sinful agate]

I've see enough people dropping their lancer tactical and then breaking their entire gun from just landing from like 3 ft distance

[viral zinc]

ive seen dudes fall w lancer tacticals and their guns are fine

polymers durable

[limber flame]

having snapped the receiver on a G&G cm16 i aint got tons of trust tbf

[viral zinc]

how???

did you slam it on someone lmao

[limber flame]

faceplant onto concrete

[viral zinc]

ohhh damn

[limber flame]

thing just broke at the magwrll

whole front end went kaput

[viral zinc]

damn

[limber flame]

the plastic there was thin enough to where it didnt bend and instead just broke off

i have my reasons to not use em but i will admit
theyre great for starter guns
especially for younger people that cant handle a heavy gun

and theyre often cheaper

[viral zinc]

yeah cause heavy ass guns just hurt my back after carrying them

thats why i run pistol or very light and short guns

for CQB

[limber flame]

heh
solid steel ak105 for cqb

[frank sphinx]

Sling?

[sinful agate]

74u for my cqb

[viral zinc]

just extra weight on me just hurts my back in general

[sinful agate]

Wtf

[frank sphinx]

Ah

[viral zinc]

gah damn

[viral zinc]

the gun short rifle that i have is like 4 pounds

no 5

actually

[limber flame]

this is my current cqb gun

[sinful agate]

My ak105 with zenit co parts weight like 10lbs

[viral zinc]

holy shit that is sick

[limber flame]

speaking of zenit

hefty ass stuff

[sinful agate]

Oh yeah, soild stuff

[limber flame]

a good sling makes weight manageable though

[viral zinc]

dude all green gas magazines are so expensive

omg

[limber flame]

ferro slingster my beloved

[viral zinc]

my glock 18c mag costsed me 70 bucks

[sinful agate]

I just use a surplus Soviet sling

[viral zinc]

just for it to die on one drop

like wtf

[limber flame]

i was planning on getting one of them but they dont look amazing on modern builds

which is what im going for

[sinful agate]

Here is my 105

[limber flame]

[sinful agate]

Just swapped the spring to reach barely below 1.5 Jules

[limber flame]

i also only use the slingster for the funny pull tab

if i could have the slingster adjuster with a bfg vickers pad i would be golden

the slingster pad is a bet ehh

[viral zinc]

anybody goes to miami airsoft?

[sinful agate]

I actually ordered a trex arm slingster

[limber flame]

is there a difference with the T-rex one?

[sinful agate]

Not sure

My friend got a promo code for 25% off so he gave me the code since he already had the sling

[frank sphinx]

my smg is 5.7, not including any parts i add on

i think you just need a sling

[spare remnant]

which ak is better? as in is 1 ammo type ak better than the other?

[oak bane]

not the right channel but I will still answer, the AK on the left is a civilian variant that shoot only in semi-auto mode and uses the 7,62x39mm bullet, which have heavy recoil but better power than the 5,45x39mm bullet used by the AK on the right which is the military version able to shoot in fully automatic mode aka undeniable advantage

then you just have to try both calibers and see which one you like more

[spare remnant]

i frgt i was on airsoft channel

sry

[oak bane]

u forgor 💀

[spare remnant]

i forgor 💀

[oak bane]

don't use T ammo for the AK-74M btw it's poop

[spare remnant]

t ammo?

[limber flame]

tracer

[oak bane]

T

[spare remnant]

ok

[oak bane]

any other questions? @spare remnant

[spare remnant]

what are good ammos for 55.6?

is fmj 556 good?

[oak bane]

nah

M855 or nothing

since you can't get anything better with Level 1 traders

[spare remnant]

i saw m856 aswell

is that any good?

[limber flame]

no

[oak bane]

it's worse

[limber flame]

worse pen

[spare remnant]

oh

[oak bane]

the "pro" is that it's tracer ammo

[spare remnant]

how about hp?

[oak bane]

same

[spare remnant]

oh

thats pretty much it man thx

[oak bane]

basically

[frank sphinx]

Too poor, have to use any ammo I have

PRS goes hard

[oak bane]

1 scav run = ~150K₽

[frank sphinx]

pshhh

[oak bane]

that's enough to buy like 1500 rounds of PS

[frank sphinx]

yeah but like

that’s boring

[oak bane]

no

looting is clearly the best thing in this game

[frank sphinx]

Tru

But scavs take legit 20 minutes to find a match

I could have done a customs run in that time

[oak bane]

no

I've done like 6 scav runs today and I found a match instantly for all of them

[frank sphinx]

Damn

I spent like an hour waiting in a queue and gave up

[oak bane]

change your servers

don't put the auto thing

[junior sedge]

Woods scavs runs is where its at

Currently sitting on 5 million

Still waiting for flea

[arctic holly]

woods is just one of those maps I could never learn

[junior sedge]

That's why I learned it, it's my stomping grounds now

[arctic holly]

My buddy who I got into tarky just before the start of last wipe somehow learned woods without even looking at the map

I just get him to do the navigating for me lol

and then I do the one tapping with a vepr hunter

[turbid aspen]

what map

[grizzled hill]

Literally anywhere

Other than factory

[limber flame]

why is this in the airshit channel?

[grizzled hill]

No idea

[slate leaf]

hi

[sinful agate]

B33 is so beautiful but so expensive

[grizzled hill]

Give me that gun

[oak bane]

woods --> stashes
reserve --> high tier loot/weapons parts and stuff
lighthouse --> high tier barter items
interchange --> technical supplies/food

[glacial drift]

I bought a cybergun gbb m16a4 and am waiting for it to arrive

Already own a mk17 gbb replica that had the dummy bolt break though and am worried this might have similar issues

[junior sedge]

Then why you buy it

[glacial drift]

Because it looks cool

[sinful agate]

Join gas blow back heavy recoil club discord and ask there. It's a discord meant for gas blow back guns so people there should have an idea on your issues

[junior sedge]

Take off the crocs

[grizzled hill]

^

[limber flame]

this
hella useful and based server

[lapis burrow]

nah the crocs are the best part

crocs are extremely drippy

[old comet]

!avatar 212768479416156161

[wild barn]

Only if they're in sport mode

[junior sedge]

Nah, all-terrain is the better mode

[slate leaf]

Bro love the drip but u do have the crocs in sports mode tho right

[peak crown]

My two main guns rn, building out my MP5 that’ll be up and running soon

[tribal wren]

very pretty

[smoky thunder]

Wow that’s a nice 417

[crystal rover]

very short tho

[peak crown]

still has really nice range, especially with the HPA engine

i play at some CQB and large outdoor fields, so i can really use it wherever

[mint estuary]

new vipertech

[sinful agate]

seeeeesh

[mint estuary]

waiting on the upper for another

will arrive in a few days

[sinful agate]

how much did all these cost?

[mint estuary]

vipertech with no furniture - $950
geissele rail - $325
inforce WML - bought used for $50, retail $90-100
raptor charging handle - $70
magpul mbus - $70
magpul ctr- $60
foregrip - $10 repro
fake eotech(soon to be replaced with real) - $35
"peq" (xcortech tracer unit bb counter/chrono) - $50

total - $1660

doesnt include the stupidly expensive shipping from taiwan and all the spare parts and mags which was another $250-300 total

[peak crown]

Man gas mags are ridiculously expensive

[mint estuary]

i bought EB tech heavy mags for it and they were $60ish each before shipping. lightweight mag is $80ish 😢

[peak crown]

unreal...

i stick to my HPA and AEG for now

[mint estuary]

i have aeg too but gbbr is quite a bit more fun IMO

and better training tool

[peak crown]

have you ever tried a Daytona?

[mint estuary]

not yet. heard they are fun but unreliable

[peak crown]

the kick on those are awesome, better than a GBB imo. and the big plus for me is AEG ag compatibility

the people i know with them have had no issues with reliability, never heard of that so far. wouldnt doubt it though, a lot of moving parts getting beat up lol

[mint estuary]

outside of daytona FAL vipertech(especially with 18mm bolt and/or co2) has realllllyy strong recoil

[mint estuary]

i think some of it is the kits require a lot of break in to run smoothly

thats what some people who own them told me

[peak crown]

oh yeah, the break in is necessary

my buddy has a M249, he went through 3 bags of 0.3s and a bucking just for the wear in period

[mint estuary]

sheesh

vipertech needs some break in but not nearly that much

[peak crown]

but now it works awesome

[mint estuary]

and can be accelerated by polishing hammer and bolt

[peak crown]

and he just got a Scar L with a daytona too

[mint estuary]

first hpa gun i will buy is a MTW

then maybe a daytona after

[peak crown]

yeah the MTWs are cool, i know a guy with one and he loves it

[crystal rover]

HOW MUCH AND WHERE

[mint estuary]

but i will probably run the tank stock or co2 stock

[peak crown]

but then i had another guy that has one broke out of the box

[mint estuary]

that one was $950 used

[crystal rover]

haha

nvm

[peak crown]

ive got an MP5, converted to MTW inferno internals, and its awesome

and my other HPA is that 417, with a reaper gen 2, Wolverine makes some really good stuff

[mint estuary]

gbb is not cheap. full gun brand new is ~$1400 after shipping

[peak crown]

apparently CYMA is prototyping GBBs at the moment. hopefully it will make them a bit cheaper

[crystal rover]

fuck that bruh

just go buy a rs

[mint estuary]

vipertech is higher quality materials and better tolerances than most ARs

6061 forged recievers

[mint estuary]

i have a feeling they will end up like golden eagle and s&t gbb, functional but poor durability

[peak crown]

yeah, i wouldnt be suprised if thats the case

i have my hopes, but realisically they will probably be ok

[crystal rover]

g&g gbbr

[peak crown]

ew

[crystal rover]

i owned one for abit

was nice

mags are hard af to get tho

[mint estuary]

your definition of nice is clearly quite different

those conversion kits were probably one of the worst gbb on the market

[crystal rover]

functional, works, wont break after falling over

[peak crown]

i almost bought an SMC9, but funny enough, it shit the bed on the seller literally moments before i bought it lmao

[mint estuary]

functional and works are quite literally the bare minimum

[crystal rover]

also was like 4-5 pounds had parts on hand and if there was a issue it was the hopup

[mint estuary]

I watched my friends use their vipertech as a pull-up bar then knock down a door with it

then go back to airsoft kek

[crystal rover]

ok thats what you want from a gun that costs 900+

i got that shit for 85

[peak crown]

those MTWs are pretty great build quality from what ive seen

[mint estuary]

MTW is also extremely good quality recievers

good materials

[river bison]

I might buy a cyma AK

The last cyma I had was a Cyma MP5 from 2007

[mint estuary]

@river bison

only buy the Vfc clones

much higher quality

[river bison]

@mint estuary my issue is the lack of furniture I like

[mint estuary]

what furniture do you want

[river bison]

This is why I bought an LCT ZK74M

[mint estuary]

oh

yeah no reason to buy cyma if you can afford LCT

[river bison]

I’ve only been buying VFC/Avalon

And KWA

[mint estuary]

why kwa

you were doing so good till you said that

[river bison]

The only non VFC/KWA I have is the cyber gun scar

And the LCT

Idk I like the ronin

I have MK18 mod 0 from them

[mint estuary]

is the scar gbb? cybergun scar gbb is made by vfc

[river bison]

nah AEG

[mint estuary]

vfc makes one of the cybergun aeg scar too

[river bison]

I got this VFC/Proforce MCX too that I got fixed

[mint estuary]

I have a Avalon saber

don't wanna dig it out for pictures

[river bison]

Broke it last year before I deployed

My MK18 is Avalon

[mint estuary]

nice

I almost bought one of those before I found my saber used for cheap

[river bison]

Oh I forgot I had a MK12

[mint estuary]

lol

[river bison]

From A&K that I’m gonna cannibalize

[mint estuary]

I'm bad at holding onto things after I buy them I sell them and buy something different frequently

[river bison]

If anything

I need a new pistol

[mint estuary]

I bought a TM 4.3 recently

[river bison]

My G18C is a Wetech and it fuckin sucks

I need a sig m17/m18 or a Glock GBB

Since that’s the only holster I got for those

[mint estuary]

vfc m17 is quite good

[river bison]

The mags are so damn expensive tho

[mint estuary]

WE g17 or g19 is much better than the 18c

18c has too many parts in the small size to be durable and function well

[river bison]

Hmm the M17 GBB proforce is def something I wanna pick up

Probably buy the competition pack from evike

With a mag

[mint estuary]

one note with vfc m17 is the CO2 mags can damage the nozzle

there's aftermarket ones now but idk about those yet

the gas mags are fine just the CO2 hurt it

[river bison]

Nah im sticking with the GBB

[glacial drift]

How much money do you spend on the optics alone

[river bison]

Quite abit

[glacial drift]

And a peq

[crystal rover]

i have spend more ona peq than any of my optics alone

[smoky thunder]

Only a plus imo

Short battle rifles are hella sexy

[crystal rover]

eh

if i had a 417 it would be standard length or long

then run a 416 that length

[smoky thunder]

Suppressor makes up for the short barrel length

[crystal rover]

i mean like

visable length

outer barrel

[smoky thunder]

Well if we’re purely talking practicality on an airsoft field, then yeah I’m sure there’s better options

But in terms of aesthetics

Pure sex

[crystal rover]

ehhh

[river bison]

I have nods and I play night games

That practical enough?

Lol

[crystal rover]

Seems legit

But like

What nods

[old latch]

Thought about buying knockoff M-pacts - glad I didn't. These things are so much more comfy than they look.

[oak bane]

GPNVG-18 or nothing

[limber flame]

theyre bussin

[junior sedge]

I agree, I love mine alot

[peak crown]

M Pacts are goated

i got mine for 10 bucks, should have stocked up on them lol

[peak crown]

man i want an MCX so bad, probably one of my dream guns to own. maybe someday

[river bison]

I have a PVS-14 with Elbit tubes

[mint estuary]

knock offs of a product that are $30 for real ones would certainly be an interesting choice

[light oxide]

for me problem with these is that you can't really get anything out of pockets if you need to

especially if its something smaller sized

[old latch]

They're 40 over here

[smoky thunder]

Almost... where’s all the thermal at?

[junior sedge]

Same, £7 I got them. Gloves are sersiouly slept on in airsoft, everyone should have nice gloves

[limber flame]

damn
i paid £40 for mine

[junior sedge]

L bozo

[river bison]

I’ll tell you right now that thermal is not practical

Dismounted that is

[light oxide]

Man watched Garand's video and now thinks thermals is nearly essential

[river bison]

I’m also an actual soldier so for my purposes I use NVG’s, thermals only when I’m on a vehicle

[light oxide]

pretty sure my NVGs gave me eye cancer

[junior sedge]

How can an M1 garand make a video

[light oxide]

after Germany I felt like i dropped 0.5 in my eyes ability to see in distance

idk

somehow it does

[peak crown]

100% man, theyre a legend at my club, we all swear by them. Ive been using mine for about a year and change now, they still work great

[light oxide]

Need to know where to buy some cheap but still good gloves

[river bison]

Those gloves are loved by soldiers because they are cheap and disposable

[light oxide]

keep losing mine

[river bison]

Better than rebuying Oakleys

Over and over

[junior sedge]

Defo one of my best purchases

Fucking love em, nobody in my area uses them tho, they usually buy cheap shitty airsoft ones with uncomfortable knucklepads

[light oxide]

lost my only warm gloves while traversing german hills

fucking shit man

[junior sedge]

Honeslty man, mechanix

[light oxide]

tried to find them with NVGs on, no luck

[limber flame]

and comfy

[junior sedge]

Can get a good deal for em, got mine new for 7 quid

[light oxide]

ye i also got mechanix, but need to find where you can get them for cheap

[junior sedge]

You can also get pink ones if you're into it

[light oxide]

since all I saw that was sold here was like 25 for cheapest

[junior sedge]

Ebay or airsoft selling discords

[light oxide]

i can but i cannot

as in not allowed to wear pink stuff

[river bison]

I’m training baby officers atm

Everyone wears em here

[junior sedge]

This is why Germany is weak

[river bison]

Baby officers as in cadets

[junior sedge]

It ain't what it used to be

[light oxide]

idk not german

but its true

[junior sedge]

Oh I thought you were lmao

[light oxide]

nah, we were there on training thats it

met some cool american guys

[junior sedge]

Ah gotcha

[light oxide]

and legit only one time I traded patches with someone I didn't have the actually good ones with me

[junior sedge]

Any advice for me btw? I'm putting my application for the British army and dunno what to expect, apart from the training n stuff

Reckon there's shit I'd need to buy?

[light oxide]

so we just swapped his flag for our emblem

idk what you guys get

[junior sedge]

I have some cool American patches, lemme get them

[light oxide]

and what you are allowed to have from personal stuff

[junior sedge]

Left one is Norway I
Think

[junior sedge]

I believe we are allowed to buy our own gear, but if injured, you can't get any claims when using your own stuff I think

[light oxide]

ye same shit here

thats why guys that go on missions take both their own shit and issued

so if something happens to them ( not including getting shot ) they will just hide their shit and get the claim

[smoky thunder]

It was more a joke on EFT and how good they are in-game lol

[light oxide]

and our guys are chill so they will just also tell the command that you were wearing issued stuff

[smoky thunder]

I didn’t even know he did a video on that

Boutta fire that up later

[junior sedge]

Good idea lol

[light oxide]

he did a video on airsoft event he was at, said that NVGs and Thermals will win you those games

plus other shit

[junior sedge]

Thermal would be good for spotting ig, but useless on a rif as the bbs don't exactly show on the thermal so you can't see where you shooting

[limber flame]

well yeah
when youre up agains people with no light dicipline and training
thermals and NVG's will thrash people at night

[peak crown]

Yeah, its pretty 50/50 here between shitty ones and the people who bought mechanix or oakleys. No matter what gloves are better than no gloves, but mechanix ones, and specifically the M Pacts are our top reccomendations

[junior sedge]

I should preach them at my next game lol

Some kid got shot on his fingernail and he was crying

"should have worn mechanix" ~ me 2 seconds ago as I typed that

[peak crown]

Yeah ive seen some bad hand shots

I think gloves are the best 15 bucks you can spend on airsoft

Its the first piece of kit i got actually lol

[junior sedge]

Eyepro is 1st, gloves are a close 2nd personally

I use the Russian 6b50 goggles and I can't go back to anything else

Oh and the ESS crossblades, very good glasses

[smoky thunder]

Gloves are great because they have plenty of application outside of your kit too

My shooting gloves double as my work gloves

[peak crown]

I was lucky and i got some hand me down Oakley M Frames from my dad who is LEO

[junior sedge]

LEO, what's that again?

Police right?

[peak crown]

Law Enforcement Officer

[junior sedge]

Aah awesome

[crystal rover]

Don’t get fingerless gloves (I learnt that the hard way)

[junior sedge]

Fingerless defeats the purpose for airsoft gloves

[smoky thunder]

Or gloves in general

[crystal rover]

tf you on about

[limber flame]

i only have a pair for really hot days

[crystal rover]

Gloves can stop you losing a nail

I almost did 2 weeks ago cause I had fingerless

[junior sedge]

That's... What I meant by saying fingerless gloves are useless

They defeat the purpose of having gloves for airsoft

[crystal rover]

Hunter said gloves aren’t good for Airsoft in general so I was replying to him

[junior sedge]

Weak

[junior sedge]

Oh my bad broski

[limber flame]

shut

[crystal rover]

Nvm I think I miss understood what he said lmao

[junior sedge]

I will clobber you with my soon to be PKM

[limber flame]

my hands sweat a good bit so constant airflow is nice

[light oxide]

So idk what they give to you guys, but from what I bought and would recommend : Some rope, like 20m would be nice, some active earpro, doesn't have to be with comms built in, just for the days when you are at the range, pegs for basha/poncho tent so you dont have to find branches that will hold it and wont snap

[limber flame]

mf i will yoink that from you

[crystal rover]

he meant fingerless in general is bad idea for gloves

Anyway

[junior sedge]

What earpro would you recommend? Say, on a budget of 200 dollars

[junior sedge]

Try it

[crystal rover]

I got fingerless cause I had better grip on the trigger

But that’s when I started out

[light oxide]

idk I bought M32s, were kinda annoying to fit under the helmet but it worked

[limber flame]

go a bit higher and get sordins

[junior sedge]

The comms on mine just stopped working after a few months

[limber flame]

M32's are shit

[junior sedge]

MSA?

[limber flame]

no

not msa

[light oxide]

plus it did a bit too much pressure on the ears, and as im fucking blind using glasses it started to hurt

[limber flame]

the new ones

[junior sedge]

Aaah oki

[limber flame]

i cant remember the manufacturer

[junior sedge]

The ear pads aren't very comfy either

[limber flame]

but the old MSA ones were a bit shit

[crystal rover]

Was going to do a moe build m4 but no one makes a good m4a1 metal body

[light oxide]

idk, didnt buy ones with comms just because I needed JUST the earpro, not comms since didnt even know id be getting radios

[junior sedge]

Ghk

[light oxide]

they are ok

usuable at the least

[crystal rover]

Price tho?

[limber flame]

no

[junior sedge]

Ah gotcha

[peak crown]

Ive got Walkers Razors, but theyre definitely on the lower end of the price spectrum. Not bad for the price though.

[junior sedge]

Atleast 10 bucks

[limber flame]

ghk are shit currently

[crystal rover]

If it is more than 200 it’s outta the water

[junior sedge]

I'll have a look at those and the sordins

All I have currently is an old set of GBSH comms, only 1 ear and has no active protection lmao

[junior sedge]

If you have 200, go for cyma platinum

Or a GG combat machine

[crystal rover]

G&G doesn’t make metal bodies

And cyma doesn’t make the style I will need

[limber flame]

they do

[crystal rover]

Find me a cmr16 that has a metal body

[limber flame]

the combat machines arent metal

because theyre lower tier starter guns

[crystal rover]

Yeah

And the style I need is only there polymer bodies

They don’t make metal versions

[river bison]

I might buy a separate bump helmet to wear for airsoft

I use my work opscore for shit and it gets annoying

[junior sedge]

@limber flame is it these?

[limber flame]

aye

[junior sedge]

180 is somewhat affordable

[limber flame]

what site is that
those are a lot cheaper than most sites ive seen

[junior sedge]

ebay lolo

[limber flame]

most go for about the same price as comtacs

[river bison]

I rock these

[limber flame]

ahhh

[junior sedge]

hot

[limber flame]

i wanna get comtacs for the drip

then some AMP arms

like that

sexy as fuck

[junior sedge]

can i have them

[limber flame]

ay bro
ill send you a box of fruit loops for them

[junior sedge]

i just realiesed your pfp is a gif, its weird

[limber flame]

im torn between saving for sordins or comtac XPI's

[light oxide]

For Comtacs, do you have to cut off the original leather-ish band off to take them off the metal stripe ?

[junior sedge]

minecraft armour stand

[light oxide]

cuz the wires are running under it

[limber flame]

i want the ability to use coms but im poor as fuck

and sordins are a bit cheaper

[junior sedge]

discord and turtle beach headset

[limber flame]

[river bison]

So I use my work kit for airsoft

[limber flame]

airpods

[river bison]

For training value

[limber flame]

with comtac 5's you dont
because they have a removable band

but any others you do

[light oxide]

ah k

kinda sucks ngl

[limber flame]

nah it aint too bad

the leather band is eh

[light oxide]

but the other is rubber

so its worse

[limber flame]

get an aftermarket one

[light oxide]

true

[limber flame]

considerably better

[light oxide]

well ill probably get it if we don't get earpro taken away

[limber flame]

and you can easily swap between helmet and standalone

[light oxide]

i heard smth that we sniped them off the airforce

[river bison]

We are comandeering a rape van for some army shit lol

Rape van as in a white delivery van with no windows

[light oxide]

I just hope we don't get the earpro taken away

the comtacs will be unusual to use first time around but after that i hope i get used to them

but to use them without any problems i need muh highcut

[junior sedge]

just ahd a look at walker razers. they are cheap asf wth

[light oxide]

which are supposed to come in later

[peak crown]

They go on sale all the time. I got mine for 60 bucks i think?

[junior sedge]

im debating buying a set just for airsoft, or skipping it for sordins

[junior sedge]

i get my tryst fund soon so maybe i will just get sordins

[peak crown]

Still an active headset though, solid for the price. Impact Sports are another good option

[river bison]

Mmm next pay check it’s gonna be an M17 with 2 extra GBB green gas mags

And I guess it’s a good time to get another holster

Probably won’t put a red dot on this one

[peak crown]

Thats my whole setup minus my MP5, for the zero people who asked

[junior sedge]

very cool kanye

[sinful agate]

Are those shorts?

Nvm, they're just folded pants 😂

[peak crown]

I figured someone would ask that 😂 but yeah, i just folded the pants

[sinful agate]

I thought it was basketball shorts for a sec and was like damn, that's some low drag high speed shit right there

[crystal rover]

who else runs 2 pistol here

[scarlet condor]

I wish I was big enough to fit in a plate carrier

that one looks comfy af

[frank sphinx]

pstttt foam plates

[sinful agate]

There are small plate carrier you can try such as a jpc 2.0 they're relatively small

Small compare to other plate carrier that is

[scarlet condor]

I have a fake JPC but the thing is the straps are too long and I don't wanna cut them

its also in desert marpat so I can't really use it here

i'm gonna go looking for a tiny ranger green plate carrier

[sinful agate]

Just fold the strap in and then tuck it somewhere

[scarlet condor]

to wear with my M81 woodland

[scarlet condor]

I mean the shoulder straps

the little covers won't fit over them doubled over, I've tried

they're too thin

[sinful agate]

Try taping them together and then hide it with the cummerbund straps

[scarlet condor]

my strap covers don't have velcro

[limber flame]

just get bigger

[scarlet condor]

im tryne 😭

[frank sphinx]

Lift weights

Or something idk

[final flax]

dont

[scarlet condor]

what

why

[limber flame]

i know your pain though
im only just big enough to fit in my carrier without it being awkward

[limber flame]

dont listen to him
hes just trolling

[scarlet condor]

my brother in Christ I weigh 112lbs I need to get bigger

[limber flame]

or mentally deficient
i cant tell

[frank sphinx]

Why not both?

[limber flame]

fair

[scarlet condor]

https://www.evike.com/products/30921/

i might pick this one up and get a different cummerbund

seems just about the same size as my JPC

[limber flame]

tbh
most carriers are gonna be similar in size due to the standardization of plates

[scarlet condor]

yeah

it also just looks cool

[limber flame]

all i can really recommend for smaller people are elastic or stretchable cummerbunds
plenty of front and rear padding
foam plates
and if that still doesn't fit enough
stuff something between you and the carrier

[peak crown]

It is very comfy haha, and they do run fairly small, thats actually a large right there and im 6’

[frank sphinx]

Foam plates work well for stuffing in between the carrier and you

[scarlet condor]

https://www.evike.com/products/18411/

these'll do the trick

[night ore]

I thought this airafot photo shoot I did with my friend is sweet

[copper heart]

is that a K19?

my only kit is a chest rig with a big usec logo

new build

[crystal rover]

was it really worth every penny you spend on it

the 2k something

just so ppl can say nice gbbr

[scarlet condor]

bros got a pile of dollar bills in the corner

cuh is literally just "look how money i am guys"

[mint estuary]

yep sure is.

[mint estuary]

nah im actually broke asf after buying this and paying for moving expenses 😭

[scarlet condor]

maybe that was a poor financial decision then

[mint estuary]

i say broke as in i dont have any more disposable income for a few weeks

not broke as in cant pay my bills

no clubbing or bars for a few weeks🥲

[scarlet condor]

"not having a disposable income" isn't "broke asf"

[scarlet condor]

you look familiar

are you in florida by chance?

[cursive remnant]

I went to Florida jacksonville

[limber flame]

why tf are the belt straps on your belt loops

and put it higher up

[scarlet condor]

ah you're not the same guy

you just dress the same

[cursive remnant]

i fixed it afterwards it looked crappy

[cursive remnant]

i mostly play ohio and kentucky

[sinful agate]

Welp, lost my safety switch and the pin to my safety grip

[mint estuary]

rip

[sinful agate]

Improvise

Even got a lil nice thumb rest

🅱️iperkek

[scarlet condor]

can someone help me find a bump helmet that doesnt have garbo padding like this one?

[junior sedge]

FMA EXFIL

Has like memory foam or something in it, loved mine

[scarlet condor]

looks pretty baller

does it have better coverage?

[junior sedge]

Oh for sure

You can choose where you put the padding as it gives you the padding and sticky tabs to place them tpruself

Yourself

[scarlet condor]

amazing

only issue is it doesnt have arc rails

[junior sedge]

You can get adapters ifaik

[scarlet condor]

god damn

im gonna get one of these too

[scarlet condor]

i'm only seeing pictures of it online, where do I go to buy it?

nvm i found a place

[junior sedge]

You won't regret it bro

Defo get attachments for it tho because it looks kinda goofy without a headset etc

[peak crown]

PTS makes the MTEK Flux too

[sinful agate]

@scarlet condor you can always get aftermarket suspension system if you think those pads are uncomfortable

[scarlet condor]

i saw that one but it's out of stock on evike

[scarlet condor]

ye ik

[glass grove]

VSS Vintorez

[sinful agate]

Very very nice 👌

[junior sedge]

Orange tip is an L tho

[sinful agate]

Yeah, just get a black sharpie and remove the orange tip

[night ore]

Here's my current kit G36c and g18c

Also got another undercover esc pic

[last bone]

Damn that looks good

[last bone]

Also are you hiding another gun in your pants??🫣😳😱😶‍🌫️

[frank sphinx]

That belt needs to be tighter lol

[frank sphinx]

And shouldn’t you not be running nationally flags if you are undercover?

[old latch]

Flags are outdated, use this:

[frank sphinx]

Oooh

[blissful cloak]

my uncle is opening an airsoft shop i hope and i think hes gonna spend like 60k just on night vision

[frank sphinx]

That so camouflaged

Like, you blend in perfectly with a 4th of July parade

[last bone]

Uhm

[frank sphinx]

like… multiple pairs, right?

[blissful cloak]

yeah

[frank sphinx]

Tell me I’m wrong

[frank sphinx]

PVS-14?

[blissful cloak]

i think only like 4 tho

[last bone]

You’re not

[frank sphinx]

Dunno how many airsofters are going to buy 15k nvg

[blissful cloak]

no clue but i know hes getting the basic stuff like this and way better ones

[night ore]

True I just liked how the colors matched tbf

[night ore]

Yeeee I was to lazy to do that

[frank sphinx]

Honestly seems like a prime place to rob

60k in nvg, especially if they are out on display

[blissful cloak]

and his logo is a pair of these

[frank sphinx]

40k nvg go brrrr

[blissful cloak]

this shit is gonna be expensive but i think is worth it and hopefully it brings in a lot of people and money

[frank sphinx]

I dunno how many people will buy NVG in airsoft, just my 2 cents

[blissful cloak]

i dont think hes gonna be selling them but people can rent them out at the place

[oak bane]

just use a flashlight idk

smh.

[blissful cloak]

like clearing dark rooms and shit idk

but airsoft...

[frank sphinx]

nah use the premiere in nvg technology….

Truly will let you dominate in the battlefield

[oak bane]

if I got nvg I would just go in the woods during night time for fun

[oak bane]

based

[blissful cloak]

idk how hes gonna get it set up all i know is that hes buying a shit ton of airsoft guns and supplies and equipment like vest

[frank sphinx]

Tell me you wouldn’t control the battlefield if you had a pair of these

[junior sedge]

Same man

[blissful cloak]

if he does get it set up i get to test shit before anyone else except him

[oak bane]

you wouldn’t control the battlefield if you had a pair of these

xddddd

[blissful cloak]

i get to mess around with nv

[frank sphinx]

GPNVG has a FOV of 97 degrees… this has 120

[frank sphinx]

Pshhhh

[oak bane]

trying GPNVG must be amazing

[last bone]

Omfg I haven’t seen that in so long lmao

[old latch]

Too bad if you're not American because (quoted from TNVC website): "Also, it illegal to allow a non-US Citizen to look through US Gen3 Night Vision Devices, even on US soil". Maybe this is common knowledge or something but I was surprised

[river bison]

Lol we know this is bullshit because we work with partner nations and they look through our shit all the time

[old latch]

Yeah, I imagined it was kinda loosely enforced, because like, how would you?

[river bison]

Our Korean KATUSA’s get NVG’s like us and we are all in the same unit despite them being Korean soldiers

Idk why it’s even a thing honestly

Hmm I’m trying to figure out how to upgrade the cybergun scar l

[cedar dust]

lol katusas are great

i remember working in an underground tunnel with them and they were eating kimchi

smelled soooo bad

we had one in our unit but he was in the orderly room

[glass grove]

Colt revolver also fun to use

[frank sphinx]

gasp no trigger discipline?!?

jkjk

It looks sick

Co2?

[river bison]

Lol I can’t ever wear goggles wearing my FAST

It’s so uncomfortable

[glacial drift]

Does it use dummy shells or are the shells molded into the gun

[glass grove]

dummy shells

and uses co2

[zinc bramble]

cybergun scar

bruh

[river bison]

Yeah

It’s abit dated im trying to see if there’s any way to make it decent

[glacial drift]

I was wondering if I could install scar h aftermarket parts on it but I'm pretty sure there's next to no internal upgrades for it

[river bison]

It’s a V2 gearbox

So you can def upgrade internals

I heard something about upgrading the motor

[crystal rover]

v2 gearbox

mpst you can upgrade in the motor and the gb

has its own special hopup

so no after market ones

[river bison]

I’m positive you can replace the hop up

[crystal rover]

when mine fucked up i couldn't

could inly buy a spare for it

which weas the same as the stock one

tho the barrel can be upgraded

same as bucking

[river bison]

The VFC maxx hopup unit should work

[crystal rover]

where is the feed lip tho

or what ever tf its called

dis bit

https://www.maxxmodel.com/cnc-aluminum-hopup-chamber-sv-vfc-scar-lh.html maybe

which model you have tho

[river bison]

I have the 2019 SCAR L

[crystal rover]

i think thats the one i had

was 209 when i got it

[river bison]

It’s the full metal one from cybergun/cyma

[crystal rover]

ah i had the poly lower one

short barrel?

[river bison]

Yea

[crystal rover]

had it come out yet

mine straight up just came out

[crystal rover]

pain in the ass to take apaprt

apart*

fuck i might needa scar again

but the safety broke on mine

so i dont really trust syber gun anymore

cyber*

[oak bane]

like what if I buy gen 3 nvg and try them in my country the CIA will send a squad of Seals to shoot me down?

[old latch]

I mean idk, we're talking a out 'Murica so who knows

[crystal rover]

organisation

[oak bane]

impressive

[glacial drift]

Wait there's an aeg cybergun scar

[junior sedge]

yeah and its mid asf

[glacial drift]

I'll be fr rn i forgot cybergun does aegs

[old latch]

Looking for a new plate carrier, my other one smells like a chemical plant, actually hurts my lungs, even after weeks of hanging outside. Been kinda a trouble to find one, over here (Germany) most budget stuff is out of stock. Couldn't find anything used either. Budget is max 120, color has to go well with OD gear and and Everglade clothes. This one is all I can find so far, any opinions? It's only 50$, *and made from 500D Nylon

[scarlet condor]

pretty ngl

i might get a GBBR SCAR

[scarlet condor]

https://www.evike.com/products/30921/

i'm not too sure about this one since i don't have one, but from the reviews i've watched it's a great quality plate carrier

[glacial drift]

The assembly is shoddy at some times

[scarlet condor]

what

you don't even know which SCAR I'm talking about

[crystal rover]

ngl tho

get a gbbr scar and if you have the money drop a daytona kit in it

[sinful agate]

$300 gbb + $700 Daytona kit

Sheesh, deep pockets for that

[glacial drift]

Okay then what scar are you talking about

[scarlet condor]

the Cybergun one

[glacial drift]

That is the one im talking about

[scarlet condor]

what about the WE Tech one then

[scarlet condor]

what's a Daytona kit?

[sinful agate]

Hybrid between hpa and gbb

[scarlet condor]

so an HPA that you don't need to lug a giant tank around for?

[glacial drift]

I don't own the we scar but the cybergun one had some misaligned screws that they never fixed and plastic dummy bolt

Breaks easily

[sinful agate]

No, it's an hpa with blow back system

[scarlet condor]

oh

[sinful agate]

You still lug around tank and lines, but you get the recoil from the gas blow back

Instead of gas/green gas, you use air from hpa

[scarlet condor]

so an HPA but for the reason why I thought I wanted to run an HPA

pretty cool

[sinful agate]

Yeah, it's cool, but very expensive and no upgradeable parts

[scarlet condor]

HOWEVER i have no plans on dropping 1k on a gun

I've made up my mind, I'm going to get an EMG MK18

I've heard EMG is good

[limber flame]

and uses AEG mags

EMG are not good

at all

[scarlet condor]

how come after I watch dozens of reviews on a gun you go and say it's terrible

every single time

without fail

[river bison]

I bought the Avalon MK18

[limber flame]

because EMG are a low tier manufacturer

also is it the AEG one or the GBB one

[scarlet condor]

the GBB one

[river bison]

This thing is lovely out of the box

[limber flame]

get a tokyo marui MK18

[scarlet condor]

$800

[limber flame]

considerably better performance

where in the world are they 800

thats entering VT prices

[scarlet condor]

https://www.evike.com/products/24284/

[river bison]

Airsoft MK18 vs an IRL URGI

I’m a sucker for surefire muzzles

[scarlet condor]

surefire makes good looking suppressors

[limber flame]

:KEKWTF:

emote fail

[crystal rover]

daytona good buy expensive

but*

[limber flame]

why tf are tm guns so expensive on evike

[glacial drift]

I've noticed almost all gbbrs on evike over 300 dollars are overpriced by at least 50 bucks

[limber flame]

even a basic MWS is 660

[crystal rover]

not really

[limber flame]

[crystal rover]

evike accounts for import fees

and inflation

so really they are priced reasonably

but you can still get cheaper

[glacial drift]

Really

I never noticed

[limber flame]

i can get an MWS for 500 locally

[mortal sage]

Emg arent a manufacturer

They just rebrand stuff

[crystal rover]

locally

[limber flame]

they use low tier manufacturers to rebrand

[scarlet condor]

the mk18 uses the WA GBB system

[limber flame]

doesn't explain why its almost 200 more on evike

[crystal rover]

smaller companies get better discounts on whole idk why but thats how it works

[limber flame]

tf you mean smaller companies

its the biggest retailer in the uk
selling an MWS for 500

[crystal rover]

forgot thet you were in the eu

but that would explain why

[scarlet condor]

i am not

[glacial drift]

I really want to get the we g3 gbbr but I don't like the sights and the only way to get a rail would be to weld one on

[scarlet condor]

so price issues arise for me

[crystal rover]

eviks is a us company they add import fees to their price

[scarlet condor]

what

[limber flame]

how though?
its harder to get stuff into the uk than it is the US

[crystal rover]

not really

[limber flame]

you can get claw mounts

[limber flame]

you know how high import tax is here?

and shipping from asia is already hella expensive

[crystal rover]

make it fit regulations then drive it from Poland or where it is coming from

[limber flame]

it doesn't come from poland

[crystal rover]

they can

[scarlet condor]

keep in mind the other MWS guns on Evike aren't $800

[crystal rover]

taiwan ships into to poland then moves across the eu

[mortal sage]

You can use mp5 mounts

[crystal rover]

i will admint some guns are over priced on evike but its usually gbbrs

[limber flame]

TM doesn't come from taiwan

comes from japan on a direct import
