Gucci of the First & Only Skirmish Site has been in touch with good news for all skirmishers in Central / Northern England:
Hola
First & Only is back. We have a NEW site and it’s just down the road from the old one just outside Matlock in the Derbyshire Dales.
Here’s a link so you can see where it is. http://maps.live.com/Default.aspx?wa=wsignin1.0
We are running open days on Saturdays again.. We plan to get some special events running again soon, especially our Vietnam days and WW2, we usually run these on Sundays. The wood is natural, with lots of ground cover and undulating terrain. A good mix of trees, rhodies and ferns. We have started on some objectives and structures around the gaming area. Were currently working on getting a VC inspired bunker complex done. If you want to come down then please book in on the forum http://www.airsoftcommunity.co.uk/forums/index.php?act=SF&f=277 or give me a call on 07976 320288 or email Gucci@Firstandonlyairsoft.com.

What with Tokyo Marui’s G17 being slightly oversized owners of the excellent handgun aren’t able to use real steel options on their weapon. Fortunately PDI through X-Fire is releasing products design specifically for the Tokyo Marui G17.
HI,this is Tomo.

Detail: Made of Duralmin,CNC all machined(included a lower block).For TM Glock 17.

Alex from Armed Forces Co. (www.armedforces.hk) have been in contact for some info about their products along with Tony from PFI (www.pfi-hk.com) that was also at the store that day promoting his new products.
The AFC custom blow back system is available as a conversion kit or a complete kit in a VFC AK with the fps adjustable to up to 400fps with .20g ammo. They’re currently working on a prototype that has a similar mechanism to be fitted in a systema with removable bolt system just like the real thing so those of you that are waiting for a higher performance armalite GBB, sit tight! There may be one coming that doesn’t require a gas tank to be carried with you during a skirmish.

More info can be found on this thread. Here
Some of you may remember PFI when they released their PFI toy grenade,
they have also released a smoke cap silencer recently that imitates real steel muzzle smoke.
This has already been posted on the forums by Tinkerbell first, here.

It comes in a nice little package as you see in the picture, along with the smoke cap and a molle compatible pouch itself, there are 2 other threaded adaptors, (apart from the 14mm ?ve thread) a 14mm +ve and a 16mm +ve thread as well as a spare set of screws for the adaptors too.

Ceramic Ball Bearing.
Ceramic balls are over 100% harder than steel balls. In a hybrid bearing, the extremely hard and smooth Ceramic Ball keeps raceways clear of contaminants by pushing them away from the contact patch. In addition, the ceramic ball remains extremely smooth, preventing ball to race damage. For the end user, this means reduced bearing wear and longer bearing life at high precision.
* Vickers Hardness 10 KG Load: Ceramic = 1550, Steel = 730
Benefits of Ceramic Ball Bearing Attributes:
- Dissimilar Materials (Steel and silicon nitride)
- Less Wear
- Lower Operating Temperature
- Higher Speed
- Extended Bearing Life
- Lower Friction
- Stiffness
- Lower Vibration
Thank you and have a good day!

We have just received an e-mail from Pacific Concepts/Ravenwood Tactical about an excellent product that is going to be a huge hit with members of the community that what to record ingame footage without carrying around fragile and expensive video equipment that runs the huge risk of being damaged durring play.
Pacific Concepts/HBD Inc has been providing innovate solutions to Industry and Law Enforcement agencies for over 37 years. After over a year in R&D, we now have a new product to introduce. We developed this camera in partnership with a major video camera maker. This is the first hardened video camera developed for mounting on a firearm. Waterproof to 10 ft, runs off two AA batteries.
Our R&D was aimed at producing a camera for law enforcement use, mounted directly on the fore end or barrel of a entry gun for SWAT use. As the prototype was displayed, we started receiving new uses from all directions.
Paintball players have shown a huge interest, along with bow hunters, handgun hunters and shotgun hunters.
On the law enforcement side we have had requests for mounts for ATV’s, bike patrols, water bikes, boats and a hand held, waterproof, easy to use camera for boarding boats. The corrections field is using them for video taping cell extractions, deployment of less lethal launchers and riot situations.
The uses seem to be only restricted by your imagination.
Please contact us if you need any more information tellwood@hbdinc.com
