Hey gorgeous, got DPM?

Going back to the old school...

Yesterday i had an airsoft experience, something radically different to anything i've fired before. Firing a classic Sun Project M16 - gas blowback, external air, feeds from toyko marui magazines. Oh. Mon. Dieu. People often ask why classics went out of fashion and the AEG overtook them. The stock response is "external air." Well i'm sorry, but that's just not good enough The pipe comes out of the pistol grip, can be zip tied to a one point sling and then hooked up to the bottle in a daysac

POWERZ!

I started writing a response to Snowman's blog, but it went on for far too long, so i thought i'd post it here instead, with a few ramblings of my own:   To be fair, the 328 fps rule is somewhat of an internet thing, than a reality. A lot of sites have a 328fps +/- 5% rule for AEG's and then a 400-500fps rule for bolt actions. My local sites have a 350fps rule for AEG's, which bloody hurts at close range, yet i keep mine at 328 so i can play wherever. My point being... sniper rifles are usual

First and Only

Yesterday i played at first and only airsoft adventures. Best - day - ever!   The site is truly fantastic with dense woodland, large hills and a complex vietnam style bunker complex. But what i found most amazing was the marshalls. The site owner - "Gucci" - is the stuff of legends, with the funniest safety brief i have ever heard. The lads there seemed like players first and marshalls seconds, something thats allways a plus. Ecspecially after playing paintball where the marshalls viewed it on

Much Walting...

I've finally got round to writing up the blogs on whats happening or going through my head. Don't worry, they're not worth reading   I've had the most walty week yet, i'm sure.   Wednesday = Paintball   Result:     Speedball REALLY hurts. I take back what i said last week. Getting shot in normal paintball is fine. But playing speedball against a load of S&M nutters with loaded hoppers is a recipe for pain. However, reputation at stake, i held back the tears, screamed out the

Getting better all the time...

How things have changed! When i started reading up on airsoft the newest gun was the Tokyo Marui M203 and the TOP M60. By god things have moved on fast... Everything seems, just "better" if that makes sense?   There's AEGs with spring release catches, CNC gearboxes, quick change springs, recoiling bolts, split gearboxes even a mechanical 3 round burst at long last. The Tokyo Marui type 89 even has magazines that feed every last BB in the mag. M4's are no longer limited to taking silly 600mAh

The L word

Stumbled across this the other day:   http://www.arrse.co.uk/wiki/L_Series   The pretty much complete listing of all the designations of weapons in UK service.     Looking through, there seems to be much more options for brit airsoft loadouts than originally thought.   "L1A1 Rifle, 7.62mm" = http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/inde...showtopic=76243 Conversion kit for the Sig AEG. Or even :http://www.shootnscoot.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=54   "L2A1 Submachine Gun" = http

Weirder than Weird

I managed to blag a job off another arnies member - "Felix Jaeger" and it's the most surreal experience ever. Finding bbs in desk drawers, a copy of AI lying around and a TM P226 in a laptop case. I've never met another 'softer anywhere local, so i've spent the past day chatting guns with him. Very weird   Also - a new site is FINALLY opening up near me. About a 20 minute drive rather than a 1 hour trek. Perhaps they have marshalling jobs going......   Most of my belt-kit arrived, i boug

Pain-ball

A while back one of my friends remarked that they'd "try anything once," which i must admit was fairly off-putting... but it does seem like a good way to live life. A few weeks back, in Corfu, i thought i'd turn my hand to kayaking, parascending and waterskiing - although of which i was utterly useless at and then it hit me. As much as i've slagged it off in the past, i've never played paintball....   Now that's kinda odd in some ways, as most airsoft players tend to be ex paintballers. So i

There must be an easier way....

Today was time to fit some new parts to my M16 carbine. Now i'm trying to get the sucker to take an SA80 sling, which meant buying two new side mounted sling adapters. £20 well spent....   In the past i've been a bit over ambitious with gun-modding, but these seemed simple enough jobs. The rear sling loop went on fine. But the front one, damn. Trying to hit out pins, with sod all proper tools was fun. "Fun" in a kind of "how am i going to hide the dents in the dinner table from my parents?" k

Be gentle, it's my first time...

I thought blogging was something that racey couple did in carparks across the nation, but apparently i'm wrong...   *Cough* /Cry of "get off the stage" from the back   Which brings me in a round about way to my blog. I thought that it was finally time to get some stuff written down that may help others, reviews, experiences and the like. And who knows, maybe one day i will.   /Rotten tomato hurled at LJ   I've been interested in airsoft for a hell of a long time now, but it's only
