Is there such a thing, in airsoft, as the Two-Gun competition? A quick look at YT will show plenty of Three-gun footage but does this sport exist in 'our world'? If it doesn't exist, I think that we're missing out. I can see that this is a discipline/game that could be enjoyed with airsoft...

Can anyone please tell me if they have found a replacement spring for the Ruger mk1? It would be nice to keep it at full power at home but drop the FPS a bit for field play (when that happens again). It seems a much more elegant solution than using different powered gasses for home and away. If...

In all the research (that's pronounced risearch not re- search) I have yet to discover why bucking rubbers come in so many different angle settings. Maple Lea seem to be well regarded and prefer 50 degree nubs(?) while other makers use everything between 40 and 70, as far as I remember. Why the...

Putting the cart well ahead of the horse, I spent a happy hour making a barrel extension/mock suppressor for my Cyma cm501 CQB. The inner barrel is a piece of aluminium arrow shaft tapered to seat into the crown of the rifle's barrel. The inner diameter is an excellent match to the rifle's...

Sorry if this has been covered before but, just how much winding will an M4 High capacity magazine take?  My mag says 330 rounds (probably not relevant) so do I wind until resistance is felt and stop? Should I top-up the BBs after this point and how often to I need to re-tension the winder to...

I now have my first Airsoft rifle! I have bought an as-new Cyma cm501 and it looks very impressive (far better made than I was expecting) but being 2nd hand I doubt that the warranty means much so I can open it up (help!) and tinker. I have not shot it, at time of writing, so I shall anticipate...

I am curious to know if I can assemble several 3.7v 18650 ex-laptop batteries into an 11.1v power pack for an AEG? Is it as simple as, perhaps, shrink-wrapping them into a stick with + and - terminals ending in an appropriate connector? I'll bet it isn't. There are bound to be complications...

I've had a lot of time on my hands recently (haven't we all?) and this little NBB has caught my attention. It's reasonably priced (cheapish) and runs several mags on a fill of Green Gas. It also has an externally adjustable hop-up and can shoot .25s and up, though that may be at American power...

I have been looking for a pistol and found that there are electric versions. No gas to run out has to be a bonus so why don't I hear more about them? Is it that they are new and have a low take-up so far or could it be that they are not that good? I have seen a few YT reviews and they look...

It frowned upon to make your own gear? I want to have the full 'military' experience but as a noob I don't want to invest too heavily before i get a taste for airsoft. So far I have a adapted a skateboard helmet, will soon have a mesh mask to modify and must get some goggles to go over my specs...

The bottom line of this thread is, is this rifle any good? I want to buy a cheap(ish) starter rifle and this fits the bill as it comes ready to shoot right out of the box. I like the looks, the price, the fact that I can buy one without having to wait for a re-stock (so many items are offered...

I am minded to buy a mk23 style pistol which will cost £65-ish; it seems popular and gas-efficient. If I then follow the recommended upgrades (Crazy Jet barrel, new bucking, etc.) at further expense, will I end up with a pistol that shoots as well as one which costs the same as the total amount...

Sorry if this is a noob question but, I have been looking at quite a few airsoft suppliers and there are so many which show 'Out of Stock' notices on the majority of their stock lines. It makes me ask: is demand outstripping supply or are these supposed 'stock lines' speculative leaders waiting...

A big HELLO to all forum members.  I am a late-comer to the game of airsoft, but to be fair, it didn't exist for much of my life! While I still have a bit snap in my elastic I want to try this gaming style. I have been watching YouTube games for a while but I'm not daft enough to think that I...
