[Deva]

All looks good to me!

alright list there, im guessing the rifle comes with a high cap mag otherwise you will be reloading alot

basics are there the rest can build up over time

 

[Armourer]

Yeah that seems like a nice load to buy, and it's within your budget (although shipping will be just over £10 for all of it).

I have some of those masks, they're good for the job and price. And the bottom half is easily removable if you want to.

Be careful with it though, some of mine are dodgy, the mesh is starting to come out, but a bit of super glue fixes it. Although mine were about £5, rather than £10.

I can afford £10 and is easily payable to my mum for the purchase.

I'm reasonably handy and have a surplus of glue so i'll be safe on that front, but then again, it's only £10 so if it dissolves in the rain, it's not super expensive to replace.

And thank you by the way Liam, i saw your post about Zero and decided to check it out. You've saved me about £60.

The rifle comes with a highcap magazine according to the reviews on Zero, and if after a few games, it becomes really annoying to reload. I'll be able to buy another one within time for the next skirmish.

Thankfully, after nearly 4 years in the cadet force, i still have my combat clothing, boots and assault vest.

Thinking of buying a AF-UK patch...

What sites are near you that you're thinking of going to?

 

[Armourer]

Stealth Tactical Airsoft

Stealth Tactical Airsoft

Urban Assault

Urban Assault Airsoft

F&O The Embassy

The Embassy

 

[Liam Porter]

I go to Urban Assault sometimes, might be there this Saturday, depends if my step-dad can get someone to cover his shift at work.

It's a good site, but has quite a lot of cheating problems, and they're quite strict on FPS limits.

Free Fire Zone and Modern Airsoft Warfare are kinda close too, I go to those more often. They're both good sites, might also be close to you?

 

[Armourer]

Free Fire is too far away for me to get to and MAW doesn't say where it is but i'd assume if it's near Free Fire, i couldn't make it.

I live in Northampton and it's in the middle of no-where Airsoft wise. xD

I could get to Leicester, and that's about the furthest i can go for Airsoft.

Also, this rifle that i might be getting, has a FPS of around 350. (349-351) But the majority of places that i've seen have a maximum of 345. :/

 

[Nutster]

Maw is in Melton Mowbray, nearer to Leicester than to ffz even if it's a little further, I'm sure Liam will agree its worth the trip

 

[Armourer]

It does look like a good site. MAW and The Embassy will be my first choices.

I'm just curious as i've seen a lot of videos and galleries on site's websites and two-toned weapons aren't used much are they?

they are pretty common but most people either spray them black or buy a new black rifle once they can get ukara /membership so only really keep them for a short time

 

[Liam Porter]

It's definitely worth the trip, by far my favourite site! Can't wait to go next weekend, need to get some costumes sorted out for fancy dress though.

And off to Urban Assault this weekend if anyone's going?

 

[Armourer]

I would try and convince my mum to take me but it's 17+ for gear hire and i'm not gonna be getting my gear til xmas

But i'll probably see you January time in either MAW, Embassy or UrbanAssault.

Quick Update;

Battery and Charger are ordered and should be sent by 1st class post Monday. I had to go for a 1500mAh battery instead of 1600 because they were out of stock.

I had a little bit of a co... balls up with ZeroAirsoft, after having to scan in the driving license and trying to use that scanner -.- <_<

THEN, we go and choose the wrong payment method and have to send an email to cancel that order and they won't get it til Monday because they aren't in Saturday. But we've ordered it again and paid for it in full so it'll be sent on Monday in 24hr delivery. All we have to do is get Zero to cancel the wrong order.

Just to note that when i say we, it's me and my mum because she can't really fill in forms online and hates doing them.

So should have everything by Wednesday or Thursday next week.

I'll write a non-combat review of the rifle and gear in the review section and then update it later when i've tried it in the field so to speak.

Thank you everyone for your help in getting set up and i hope to play with some of you in the near future.

[Liam Porter]

If you get it before this weekend, get yourself to MAW for their Sunday fancy dress game!

 

[Deva]

Thinking of buying a AF-UK patch...

Do it! We have stacks left! Be an early Christmas present to yourself! :lol:

 

[Armourer]

Just to update.

Currently waiting for FedEx to deliver the rifle today (hopefully) considering i paid £7.50 for 24hr delivery.

The battery and charger will come first class and i'm assuming sent yesterday.

I'll post pics, boxing, test firing etc. And i'll do a quick review when i get it.

Maybe Liam, maybe. I'll see if i can get the folks to take me. Whats the fancy dress theme?

 

[Nutster]

Open to your imagination though there's a prize for the most festive, since it's Christmas

 

[Armourer]

Hmmm....

Mrs Claws? For a giggle xD

Ohhh, a snowman xD

 

[Nickona]

most impracticale i've seen is a cracker

 

[Liam Porter]

Don't you DARE go as a cracker. I'm doing that.

 

[TPI]

Because going in a skirt is so much more practical?
