    TM MP7 GBB

    Sorry,bit late but just seen this. Is the leak from the port or the threads? I have had lots of success (luck) with gbb mags by soaking valves/exhausts in mineral oil (rockshox mtb suspension fluid) and then using PTFE  tape on the threads when reassembling. Also try soaking the o rings in...

    quick stop for pie, it stings more on the tight bits I'll need to get across to POW, I've not been past the m8 corridor in too long

    Definitely great pictures. @Tackle, I'll see your Turd and raise you. If I wear my chest rig and battle belt at the same time I look like sausages...

    Instore haggling

    I always found the staff there really helpful. My mate and I drove over a second time and ended up melting cards with random springers, stuff they'd just got in that wasn't on the website and stuff we definitely didn't go over for. Enjoy.

    Instore haggling

    I remember driving from Prestwick over to Fife to get a good bundle deal with the guys from Airsoft World, but that would have been 15 years ago. I was buying for the site and for myself so it was a fair whack. Not sure what the margins are these days, and I wouldn't want to horse anyone over...

    Cleaning vests/rigs etc.

    I take any plates/inserts out, anything that can come off I remove, dunk it in a bucket of soapy water, then give it a bit of a scrub with a plastic brush. Rinse with the hose and leave to drip dry. My viper one is nigh on 18 years old and still perfectly useable. And as a "bigger unit " it's...

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    Did you happen to try Buckfast while you were in Scotland, it's like a combination of Vimto, Irn Bru and  some sort of deweaponised plutonium....

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    I've also seen entire teams/groups/friends leave and be refunded because one person was over the limit. If it's within the range then okay, but then you get "it's only 15 fps over/it's only 5 over the top line /it's my new hop/ it's a new spring it'll bed in after the first game " and there's...

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    Corporal Jones moment coming on here.... When I was running the Wargames Centre in Ayrshire ( now biohazard), as a CQB style indoor site we had a limit of 328fps (+/- 10) and always tested on .2s. As it got busier we had more issues just chopping and changing mags etc to chrono.  We had guys...

    HARASSED ON AIRSOFT HUB

    What if AntM is Ant Middleton, from the SAS tv show... OP, I appreciate this doesn't help, but may add some levity to the situation

    Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

    I used to love watching guys rock up and start unloading dummy LAW rockets, scissors, pouches full of bandages, dummy clansman packs, and stuff that looks great but doesn't provide a functional use in game, unless it goes mega tits up and you need bandages . It's all adding weight and profile. ...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Hi, I got it from the Chinese wonder market that is Temu. They have some great bargain stuff like the patch I got but they also have a load of crap, you get what you pay for.

    Show us your plinking target setups

    I like a wee garage pop when time allows. I get a robust cardboard box from the local supermarket and hang a bean tin lid from an old bit of wire. Can sometimes be a pain to maintain it "face on" if you use string but cheap and effective
