    Anyone recommend a good sniper hop rubber? My stock one lasted about 60 shots at 500fps... Has to be a VSR type.

    I got my R-Hop patches from AirLab, would have thought they'd be the same from everywhere though?

    About the barrel, there's so much debating on whether the tightest you can find is better, wider is better or whether somewhere in the middle is. From what I've read, the general thoughts are that 6.01 for closer ranges, giving a higher FPS increase, and wider barrels (6.05+) for long range rifles, as they create a more stable flight with a cushion of air around the BB.

    Madbull recently released a vsr bucking- will be worth a try.

    I don't care if the chrono doesn't work! ...Well actually I do... The range on my sniper now... Holy hell. S'got to be at least 90m. Starting to wonder what the point in R-hop is, since I had to use the stock bucking... Only conclusion is that it's got to be waaaaayyy over 500fps! Any ideas?

    I'm not using a patch... Didn't you read my first post?

    Man I feel dumb,sorry about that. I thought you were still battling with R hop,so I'm guessing you have a dead rubber.

    Yeah... Though on the plus side, that ought to make it easier to try the R-hop patches again, as you said lol. I just need to get some high grain sand paper to make it fit better, upgrade the spring guide stopper and I think I'm golden.

    Nearly reported one of my own comments on a PM thread because the button's in the same place as "Back to top" on regular threads... Fail lol.

    Just written my first blog post for UK Airsoft. Anyone want to read it ahead of it being added to their website? It could do with being proof read by someone who isn't me, if nothing else... Yay o' nay?

    Typo's are:-

    <I’d advise you not to get a gas rifle as yourfirst gun though>= your first ..

    <A USNavy Seal maybe>= A US Navy Seal..

    Also consider revising the phrase <"I was a month 18 when I discovered airsoft">= maybe < a month over 18 > ?

    I wrote it in Word and then pasted it over to Facebook, where the lines ended on Word and dropped to a new line, they didn't start a new line on Facebook, which for some reason means it had to not leave a space... I added a ton of spaces back in but must've missed some.

    As for the phrase, I think it's clear enough what I mean.

    Confused.com... Sniper's firing at 175ish fps with .43s, which means that according to our fps calculation app, it ought to be firing .20s at around 250. But it's not, it's firing them at about 320. It used to fire at around 400 with .20s, so it seems that fitting an R-hop has reduced my fps by about 80... Not good. Methinks it might not be in right... It's overhopping .30s ridiculously, but isn't lifting .43s. Snipers can honestly just fuck off. Waaaaaayyy too much hassle.

    Step 1: Chuck out your bag of shite.

    Step 2: Buy a VSR.

    Step 3: Inner peace.

    If the hop is blocking the barrel too much and it's an RHop, then it's wrong. It should go into the barrel by less than half a mm, if you look down my barrel, you can't even see the RHop, it's flush with the barrel.

    Yeah, I know Liam. Gonna have to take another look at it sometime. Need to get some sandpaper methinks...

    I wish all the advertising report stuff on YouTube actually made sense... I have no idea what any of the figures mean, what kind of money I'm making, what portion of it I actually get... Nothing like making life easy, eh?

    I don't use AdBlock because I haven't downloaded it. That is literally the only reason, ads don't annoy me enough to make me want to.

    I was tempted to write one as a person getting into the sport, even saw an advert in Airsoft Action to write for them, never got round to sending it :(

    Nice ed. Sounds really good. Been looking forward to the site for ages now. - It's my local site I'm down pretty regular - be down again in July :)

    I think my entire area might've been caught up in a "Wizard of Oz" style hurricane and transported to Asia... It appears to be monsoon season there at the moment.

    Is that a camera on the right side on the rail or laser module?

    And is it me or some people dont like taking the hits because it seems that some of ur BB's did hit them lol

    A
    Airsoft-Ed
    Yeah, it's a Laser Light Module.

    My gun was shooting slightly left once it got past about 35m, so the longer range shots I was missing a fair bit. It wasn't so bad on the other game fields but it's quite hard to pick out white BBs against a darkish woodland background.

    Anyone into RC planes? I'm going to Western Park tomorrow for a model airshow.

    I did fly them, so was I :) I only gave up due to a neck injury and not being able to look up for that long lol I still have my kyosho trainer 50 and kyosho duct fan f16 somewhere

    I used to fly a ducted fan A10 and a sort of cessna-type thing, both electric. As well as various different gliders. Not done it for a while though, 'cos the club I was a part of decided you have to pass some sort of practical test to get a license or certificate or something and without it, they won't insure me.

    So I've not done anything since then, even though the test will be a piece of piss, I think it's a joke that they suddenly decided to force you to do it,...

    Really love the A10's I always was gunna get one lol, then again I never assembled the f16 electric duct fan … I only got it as I was fed up of cleaning caster oil (or what ever the oil in the fuel was) off my trainer. I know what you mean, I had the application pack for my licence/insurance but had to give up before I took my test :(
