Anybody have any good examples of DIY mock shaped/door/det chord charges? I'm looking into ways to make a breacher kit look a little bit more authentic. I am already planning to buy the obligatory assault back panel and bolt cutter, but having some mock charge would be cool I think. 

 

I do have some general idea of the way to go but don't feel like reinventing the wheel and my google fu is letting me down...

I made a slap charge out of some cardboard, some electrical tape, a strip of double sided sticky tape and a piece of paracord after reading a guide on the internet. Probably wouldn't stand up to a lot of scrutiny/probably isn't that accurate to the real thing but it looks pretty effective

Hi I'm new, and I don't know much. I've searched "battery life" and looked at gun reviews but have not found my answer. 

 

I've just ordered a  ASG CZ Scorpion EVO 3 and 2  11.1V 1100mah Triple Cell Batteries. (I've just realised I don't know the C rating of them, and they are an offbrand from a local airsoft store). I've got a smart charger but do I have enough battery capacity for a full days out door play? How many shot does a gun get from a 1100 mah lipo battery? The gun is shipping so I can't test it, but I would like to have the batteries ready and waiting for when it does show up.

 

Cheers

What's a marushin m500 8mm worth today?

 

That's s tough question. It would depend on who is buying it. 2 or 3 years ago I would expect no less the 250 - 300 USD if it were still in good condition. You could probably still get that if you have a buyer that's specifically looking for a marushin.

 

The user base is much more watered down now with the Marui and APS 870s though. Maybe low 200's? Again, condition would matter for that.

One shot per mah seems be a rough rule of thumb. Personally 2200 mah total would be enough for a game I think. YMMV.

I'm wondering if a real Aimpoint rubber cover (http://www.amazon.com/AIMPOINT-OUTER-RUBBER-COVER-SIGHTS/dp/B004GUH0JE) will fit on a G&P replica (specifically, this one: http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/gandp-30mm-aimpoint-military-red-dot-sight.html#.VeneTxFVhBc).  I'm like 90% it will but I was wondering if anyone has tried.  I know G&P makes their own rubber cover but I like the real one for its Aimpoint trademarks.  

 

Thanks!
