    True...sad thing is back then when I was State-side in autumn I had no waterproof boots...
  2. The S.C.A.R.
    Thanks for the feedback. I used to use Altama Desert Boots for airsoft until I picked up the Asolo. Never went back again...they're just great boots

    Well actually at current I'm thinking that my 11.5 size Quest 4D is a bit too tight...might gonna exchange for a size 12 and see how it goes...
  5. The S.C.A.R.
    well they are pricey, but as far as I heard from others they last very long... Besides since I hike a lot other than just paintballing and airsofting (when I'm not in the US)...I'd rather purchase hiking boots rather than standard military issue/desert boots Just my two cents

    (My apologies for writing the review rather late, three weeks after starting it) Asolo Moran GTX & Salomon Quest 4D GTX Review Asolo Moran GTX Salomon Quest 4D GTX BACKGROUND For the past three years my Altama HopLites were my go-to boots in airsoft (and functions as my go-to work boot as well). Since then I began studying overseas and my Altamas started to fall short of expectations here. It is a non- Gore Tex boot which means it's not waterproof (duh...) and in where I currently live there's snow fall after late November. I began eyeing for a pair of gore tex boots can

It is a non- Gore Tex boot which means it's not waterproof (duh...) and in where I currently live there's snow fall after late November. I began eyeing for a pair of gore tex boots that can supplement my Altamas. That's when I narrowed down to Asolo and Salomon, prominently because of their uses in Afghanistan by NATO armed forces. I eventually chose to go for a p

    Dude this looks smexy!!! Nice job on making ur gun look nice. Standard barebones 416 looks fugly IMO
  9. The S.C.A.R.
    Ahh well man I wish I could change the scope, but unfortunately I'm going overseas for studies by August and theres no way to change the scope for just a month's use I actually purposedly bought the replica TA01NSN just for a Special Force loadout (currently a Navy SEALs loadout with new boonie hat and new vest), since this model was reported to be standard issue ACOG for SOCOM...still enjoyed using this scope even though the eye relief is a bit short. I tend not to use scopes with red dot (if it's wrong let me know since I didn't know much about your scope, rather enjoyed using a scope with

    Barrel: R.I.S. + Foregrip Receiver Handgrip Buttstock: As you can see there are many scratch marks and wear-and-tear, the paint is only applied months ago and these marks are gained after a field test and an airsoft event. More pics coming!!! Once there are enough pics they would all be added to the review in the database here: http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/reviewpost/showproduct.php/product/956/title/41628sportline-29/cat/16 [Edit]: Some more pics, all of them from a field test on the Lantau Chateau, Sunset Peak, Hong Kong (???):

    Spot on man!!! I earned the lesson of Classic Army airsofting the hard way when I took my stock 416 Sportline for a game. Out-ranged, out-powered... Spent the same amount of cash I used to buy the gun and worked out the internals. Now the gun's running smoothly and shooting as nice as it can under USD 300 (including the gun itself). You can't skirmish with a CA unless you have modified it (I modified it right after the warranty expired)
  13. The S.C.A.R.
    Sorry that I wasn't in ArniesAirsoft forums for a while, been busy for a year so I went of the hook for the time being back then. Anyways here's some updates on this gun. No there isn't any 416-type rail systems so far, tho I heard that an ACM company is making one... I hope I can cya one day too The reason why I bought the Sportline version is because I wanted a cheap gun with RIS to test out all sorts of new equipments whenever I apply on them, besides the Sportline is cheap, I can put *albatross*-loads ( ) of upgrades on the gun and its still cheaper than buying a VFC for

    Get some!!!

  15. The S.C.A.R.
    Just a small update: After a year of heavy use my black MEU is still holding up with no problems though the inner barrel might be swapped out with a KM one later on since it's getting worned
  16. The S.C.A.R.
    Dude since Ive bought that 1 year ago Ive been using that endlessly. Each week Ive been daily target-practising...wont be surprising that it has passed the 50,000 round mark. Anyway Im considering changing the inner barrel to a KM 6.04mm tightbore one soon enough. The old barrel starts to have some defects and the accuracy started dropping slightly...
  17. The S.C.A.R.
    Nice gun chas Any projects u're thinking of on this gun? Like modifying it to the Kimber ICQB or something like that? Ive only had experience with Army over their MEU beforehand and so far it has lived through 50,000 rounds for now without a single problem. Do you recommend the Warrior?
  18. The S.C.A.R.
    I would also be adding some cosmetic things on it as well. Right now I have a replica ACOG scope (red dot) on the gun, as well as a forward grip. I am considering installing an AG 36 on the 416 as well, but only after I have switched the plastic R.A.S. to a metal R.A.S. would I really consider it (I'm afraid the plastic R.A.S. may crack because of the AG 36's weight)
  19. The S.C.A.R.
    Any internal parts that are plastic would be upgraded to reinforced ones, as well as a Systema hop-up unit and a Prometheus 6.03mm (363mm) inner barrel. And to Deltacor, I got it straight from CA shop in Kowloon. From what I remember, UN Co. and AEX are stocking them as well.
  20. The S.C.A.R.
    Well, yes, but I'm going to upgrade it by around October.
  21. The S.C.A.R.
    It's not even out yet (from Gunners)
  22. The S.C.A.R.
    Well, yes, the gun comes with the "typical" Dboys stuff: the motor is now slightly different (I can't detect much difference between my old Dboys M4A1 and the new HK 416) , but because of the "cleverness" of Dboys the bushings are still 7mm plastic ones.

Based on the experience, gained during successful upgrade program of the British SA80 / L85A1 program, HK decided to cure the existing M16 rifles and M4 carbines from mos

    Nah, I wanna post it on the Review Database. I post it here because I think I can get some help from you guys to correct some mistakes or give some suggestions. Anyway a pic of the plastic RIS would be on soon (I'm still being too busy at the meantime).

    Closer Look Externals The outer barrel is the same as the normal version, but unlike CA’s M15 sportline series before, it’s a barrel. There are no barrel wobbles whatsoever. Most airsofters think that the biggest selling point of the HK 416 is the R.I.S.. The R.I.S., unfortunately, is made out of ABS plastic, which means that you can’t fit accessories such as grenade launchers and barrel-mounted shotguns, but it helps the overall weight of the gun to be lighter, which means better maneuverability. The receivers deserve a good looking at. It’s colors are the same (I don’t know
