Oh my gawd. It’s been a while - my last post was 2014 😧 I’ve decided at the ripe old age of approximately 1.8 billion seconds I need to get out more - and I really liked Airsoft… Resubscribed to Airsoft International and we’ll see how it goes… 😀

Basically, this is replica of DS Arms short FN FAL. I always quite fancied one of these but the Classic Army one is a tad expensive. I was all set to stump up a couple of hundred quid for a clone when Gunfire in Poland put the Cyma one in their sale - £120 delivered. Promptly ordered. Well eventually. Gunfire might be cheap but their web site is either all Polish or a mixture of mainly English but some critical messages in Polish. Tricky. Also found that despite offering to accept Maestro cards the Polish paysite you are sent to has other ideas! Eventually paid with Paypal despite a small surc

Well, the gun is here. Very nice but I can't quite decide whether it is comfortable or not! I've fitted the Guarder threaded barrel and unlike the regular one there is no movement at all when fitted. A thin coat of plasti-dip in the breach end made doubly sure. The PDI 6.01 barrel has been fitted as well and the barrel assembly is noticeably heavier than the standard one. I stripped out the inner slide and, after painting each side in plasti-coat, fitted the Creation aluminium one; there seems to be more clearance for the barrel and breach and recoil is brisk! I did paint the whole inner s

Did you just stretch the spring and heat it or did you adjust it's uncompressed length to 130% of normal? I'm assuming the latter?

Well, the gun and parts are on their way. Inner barrel from Japan, holster from the USA, inner slide from Hong Kong and the gun, outer barrel and some other miscelleneous 5-7 and Glock bits from the UK. An international effort! Now to get a tin of plasti-dip. Probably give the spring baking a go since it seems easy enough.

Okay, the time has come to order one of these... and some bits. I've ordered a Creation inner slide. Before the gun. Tokyo Model's website indicated that they were not 'Out of Stock' which seemed to imply 'In Stock' and since they appear to be as common as hen's teeth I thought I'd get one. The gun seems relatively common by comparison. Rather than using gasket maker to bed it in though, I was thinking that a coat of Plasti-dip on both the slides might be an idea. I also fancy the Guarder threaded steel barrel to give me the option of fitting a silencer, a Nine Ball recoil ring and a PDI

To be fair, it looks like a standard black Detonics but with a duplicate right safety so us lefties can work the little b*gger. It does have a PDI 6.01 stainless inner barrel with hammer, trigger, recoil rod and recoil bushing by PDI as well. I've been looking at fitting the M1911A1 main spring housing with a lanyard loop...

I've bought quite a lot from Mike at ESC and have to say the service has been excellent. I haven't gone down the route of buying a custom gun preferring instead to build my own but that Kimber is niiiice... Despite being pretty competent with AEGs I can't really say I've had great success with pistols . My Zeke kit Desert Eagle is okay but I've decided that metal slides and barrels are out - far to much hassle with fit, barrel scratching and steel barrels beating lumps out of alloy slides. I'm sure Mike has much more experience than me and despite his skill I still see the scratches on the ba

Excellent review. I'm a Marui fanboy when it comes to handguns but this convinced me to go for the all metal version. Ah,internets to Hong Kong plus Paypal! Lethal combination.

Fixed! I can only assume I selected some odd filters in error.

Hi When I click on the 'View New Content' I keep getting the same two posts - something about Glocks and the other about Turnigy chargers. I've tried logging off and back on but the same thing happens. It makes no difference whether I'm at work or home (laptop at home base unit at work) and happens on IE, Firefox and Chrome. Cheers,

I've got two of these with power supplies. They're excellent. I did look at their quad multi-charger but opted to go for separate ones instead. HIghly recommended bit of kit. I've bought extension wires for the lipo balance leads which help when getting the lipos into the charging bags.
