  1. I was so excited I finally got my MRP I forgot I also still have a sewing machine for the times I'll need it. Picked up the carbon fibre'd MFR rail from a mate, and it sort of looks quite race-gun-ish to me, so I'm leaving the carbon fibre on it for now. Need to get rid of the A2 grip..
  2. The Madbull Chrono is wrong; That is a fact. Madbull Chrono's are well known for being utterly appalling, and about as consistent as edibility of burgers at festivals.
  3. I really do, but the gun cost enough itself! Saying that, Jon was nice enough to give me the Strike Systems Aimpoint and I'm actually thoroughly impressed; Click-adjustable turrets, no issues with recoil yet, nice bright clear dot etc. Saying that, it's due a Trijicon or maybe an Eotech when I can afford one; That may not be for a little while though!
  4. Close, it's the full on G&P/Bomber MRP Pre-Built WOC; From everything I've managed to find via google (which is very very little), it's Prime externals filled with G&P guts, built in-house by G&P. Whether or not any of that is true, I have no idea! I've been waiting a couple of years to finally get my hands on one, and it's met my expectations and then some. The upper and lower are fully CNC'd, the markings are nicer than any I've ever seen on any Airsoft gun, and it's solid as a rock and performs like a champ with G&P Pmags. A friend picked up a Bomber M733 at the same tim
  5. It's been a long time coming, but... I didn't know an Airsoft gun could ever be this beautifully made or finished; I am literally happier than I could ever describe about now.
  6. *fruitcage* that general area over there, and *fruitcage* cover. Taken by http://ashleighwrightphotography.weebly.com/about-me.html - Who's also written and published a damned good book about Airsoft aimed at new players/the general population.
  7. So do I, and I imagine so does everyone else with an Airsoft AR AEG ever. Shapeways perhaps? Hell, failing that, suggest it to a manufacturer, Madbull would be my recommendation - That's a fantastic idea, looks very well executed, and NEEDS to be made.
  8. It's made my VFC, but I haven't seen one in stock in frikkin' ages.
  9. See this is a common thing that comes up - I use my dot sight, I've got it zeroed accurately, and I actively aim with it. I've gone through probably 20 G&P or other brand replica optics, which is probably close to £800 spent on toy optics which I've then sold on or have broken. £400 would have bought me an R/S Eotech and a lens protector, which would still be with me today. So really, because of cheaping out with replica optics, I've actually away £400...
  10. Well *fruitcage*. I thought being reasonably old they'd be cheaper... Oh well, G&P Aimpoint will have to do for now
  11. Story of my life Strangely enough the RX30 is about my favourite dot sight; How much do they tend to go for these days?
  12. That's what I thought, as it seems the Noveske NSR's are pretty decent as well... Maybe Troy set more conditions than everyone else. I'd recommend the MFR though - The trades aren't bang on accurate, but there's no mention of Airsoft and there's nothing to stop a gas system working. Saying that, you're in the US - Buy a real one!
  13. It's a weird one really; Is your RISII the Mk18 style 9" or the 12"? From what I recall most people had issues with the 9". Madbull are a weird one, their MFR and the RISII I've currently got are brilliant - Fit perfectly, on-spec rails, nice trades, no 'airsoft only', nothing blocking the gas system. On the other hand, their Troy TRX and VTAC rails are *fruitcage* appalling; Completely blocked when it comes to a gas system, blatantly, unnecessarily large 'MILSIM/AIRSOFT' only markings and a top rail that my Iron sights wouldn't slide onto. Madbull seem to just like trolling people..
  14. You'll need a new buffer setup for the PRS stock due to the 607's short recoil system, but the Troy RIS will go straight on. Saying that, DD Omega rails look pretty nice with fixed carry handle uppers. Here's some inspiration;
  15. It is indeed - It's looking like the next few weeks officially - They're waiting on a couple more deliveries and the website going live, but they'll be up and running very soon. I'm awaiting a reply from Marlowe on a forum presence here as well as the go-ahead to make an announcement in the news section. I was equally surprised myself - The rail is literally perfect. The finish is nice and flat, and a much earthier brown in person, not bronze or golden at all. Rails happily take anything I want to mount on them, the markings are sharp and accurate. I googled the NSN number and e
  16. A few friends of mine have recently opened up their own Airsoft venture, which is soon to be open in the UK, and I was lucky enough to get a private viewing of their showroom on Saturday, as well as pick up an AEG (out of all 96 G&P models they had) and handle the Bomber MRP I'm about to spend the next 3 months paying for... Anyhow, G&P M4 V5 - Wasn't one of the options I was considering when I went up there, but after handling it, the colour of the rail really grew on me and having the rail this long is a lot more comfortable to use than I'd realised; The short TD grip goes really
  17. I had an R/S Samson rail fit absolutely fine on a KWA LM4 barrel nut - Took a light tap to one half of the thermal bushing to get it to seat, but it mounted without issue.
  18. Sweet jesus, that's absolutely stunning.
  19. Maybe it's just me, but PatrolBase's 'Airsoft women' photo competition is really pissing me off.

  20. Your math is bad and you should feel bad.
  21. Back to AEG's... I feel dirty.

      Never had that issue myself, but then I just sell pistols and not that many. I see what you mean for somethings though.

      In winter use MAPP. Personally I think some people are just unrealistic when it comes to rifle sales. If you want a hobby that pays try pearl farming or gold panning.

      I just try to minimise my losses, I'm not actively trying to make a profit on second hand sales.

  22. I've loved my Gaspedal since I bought it - It's about the only accessory I've never considered selling. I use mine as it is, without a handstop or anything, just on the side of the rail. Most ergonomically suitable way for me to grip the handguard, and it looks cool.
