    Silicone gas for GBBR

    I use the ASG Ultrair line of gases in my guns. They do high powered red gas, a mid-powered orange gas and their standard "green" gas, which is deceptively in a brown bottle. I also have some Nuprol black gas, because my m14 and SVD need something a little more than red gas when it gets really...

    Realsword- The Nokia of airsoft?

    A while ago. Closer to Covid time. He gave up trying after a year

    Realsword- The Nokia of airsoft?

    One of my friends has a RS SVD, and he couldn't get them to send him a new gearbox as his stock one has cracked, making the gun a wall-hanger. We just assumed they were either out of business, or wholly disinterested in helping (he wasn't asking for it for free, was willing to pay for a new gearbox)

    Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

    I'm... slowly getting out of the fat git club, but the plate carrier I've always used is the Warrior Assault Systems RPC and that fits me and my overweight 6'5 frame

    Silent industries hop combo with pdi inner barrel

    I'm using a 4uantum rubber with the large Silent Industries nub in my MTW 308 and that works pretty nicely for .43s at 1.88J. However, I have also widened the window on my PDI barrel because out of the box the window is too small for any of the hop rubbers I like

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    Went out for my first solo outing since passing my driving test in December and getting myself a car earlier this month. Took myself to Driver Wood for a very muddy, but surprisingly not very wintery game today; if you told me it was March or April with how the weather was today, I might've...

    Ideal BB weight/brand (P90 Loadout)

    It's a personal choice really, so everyone will have different answers. The conventional wisdom is that heavier BBs will perform better, and the p90 has a short barrel so the cylinder to barrel ratio will play well with heavier BBs. Generally, if you want the best performance, you want to use...

    People taking things too serious

    Pretty much this. Everyone is allowed to have fun in their own way, which will be different from person to person. I, for example, try to keep my kit as authentic as possible, only use gas guns, and carry far more sustainment kit than I need for a regular skirmish because it's what I enjoy from...

    Outdoor & tactical reliability

    I've never had any issues with them, but they do take their sweet time to dispatch stuff sometimes. Usually takes a few days for them to send stuff out, but they always have.

    Total GBB Overhaul or keep a spare AEG?

    I still own all my AEGs, but only because selling upgraded airsoft guns sucks. Spent a lot of time and money on my AEGs, but upgraded guns sell poorly (and rightfully so, since most people are awful techs and overstate what their guns can do), and so I still have them. I recently sold my mp5k to...

    W**g C**n refused entry to New Zealand :)

    Yeah, exactly. I don't mind when headshots happen as it's part of the game, and I will never complain about getting headshot myself. This is coming from someone who also doesn't ever wear face protection outside of my CQB kit because it steams up my glasses, since I don't get shot at that much...

    W**g C**n refused entry to New Zealand :)

    I'm not a huge KM hater, but this is also my biggest criticism of him. Regardless of however he conducts himself or how he plays in person (I've never met him or played against or with him), his videos put out ideas that to be a good ghillie sniper, you need to go for headshots and that you...

    Who was your first?

    I first started learning with air rifles when I was 10. My parents bought me a .177 air rifle for my birthday and I'd frequently shoot with my father. Then I joined army cadets when I was 14 and we did a lot of shooting there with actual guns! In terms of airsoft, that was about the same time...

    Can you identify this gas magazine?

    Looks like it could be an Army Staccato 2011 magazine https://shop.jkarmy.com/army-r612-mag-bk.html

    4x Optic: ACOG v Short Dot Scope v Elcan Spectre

    For a DMR I'd go with the LPVO over the other options; I go for MPVOs myself, but I know a lot of airsofters prefer LPVOs due to shorter ranges, but I like being able to see exactly what's going on downrange. It's rare you'll need 1x as a DMR with an MED, and the variation can help at different...
