amateurstuntman Posted May 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 If I hadn't just got the UAR working properly I'd be interested in the G+G thingy. I was thinking of swapping my V3 Polarstar for a V2 one and that would be the perfect candidate,,, Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Haha, well you I could trust with it Stunt . Still ideally want to just have spring and gas, tried electric and was like this: https://youtu.be/zGxwbhkDjZM?t=24 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Surprise secrecy stag do for marlowe, currently getting lunch at the black sheep brewery in masham, had a great morning, and looking forward to an afternoon of drinking and silliness. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Just back from driving the new Alfa Giulia. In Italy, with plenty of young lovelies looking after us. It's pretty damn good! Did any of them survive? From what I gather, they were dropping like flies, being picked up by tow trucks when various things failed. A shame they can't shake that Alfa build quality. Not like I'll be buying one anyway as they're not doing 6MT over here. Fail. Would have been interested if they had though. Link to post Share on other sites
sandstorm Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 If I had some assurance on further paychecks from this gig I just started AND if there wasn't such a hassle trying to ship RIFs into FInland, I'd be interested in that Firehawk... Although my pistol collection DOES have an USPc-sized hole in it, too... Damn. Link to post Share on other sites

FireKnife Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Owe me, not sure what you mean Stunt? It is going for whatever I put in the sales thread thingy, I am just trying to shift to spring / gas due to my preference for both. Either way, if it is gone it is one less thing to worry about for me 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
DeltaZero Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Just got home from a Tough Mudder in the Midlands.. Really enjoyed it and I feel way better than I expected to. Considering I finished work at 0130 this morning im very chuffed! Now for a takeaway and beer before early bed! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites

DeltaZero Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I had mud in areas I don't think I've ever seen in my life.. It was an interesting shower! The rain was nice though, added to the atmosphere and was good hydration! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
scorch Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I was climbing steep* rock stairs in the wind and rain at Tintagel Castle. There were American tourists wearing all the multi layered technical clothing systems and specialist hiking boots while I was doing the lot in issue assault boots a softshell and MTP trousers. *44 degree incline. Measured it because I'm a geek and wanted to use my ballistic computer app. Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted May 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 It just means how much have you spent on it. What would you need to get to be happy? I'll look in the sales thread. Link to post Share on other sites

A shame they can't shake that Alfa build quality. Not like I'll be buying one anyway as they're not doing 6MT over here. Fail. Would have been interested if they had though. @hitmanNo2 - The only one that failed was one of the Quadrafoglios that was, in the words of one of the staff "crashed a leetle bit". TBH, I was hoping for the manual gearbox as well, but having driven one it's not such a loss. The auto is the ubiquitous 8 speed ZF and is really good, and the paddles work well too. Aside from the engine and torque shifting diff, the running gear for the non-Cloverleafs is the same as the Cloverleaf, so the diesel auto handles really well and is surprisingly level in the corners.

hitmanNo2 Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Whilst I haven't driven either the auto or manual, I hear the shortcomings of the manual can be rectified with an aftermarket short shifter. I'm a bit of a petrol snob so no diesel for me ha ha. Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 It just means how much have you spent on it. What would you need to get to be happy? I'll look in the sales thread. Erm, gun was £140, mags were about £30-40, battery was about £10, suppressor was £15 and charger was free. So at £200 odd and barely used I think the price I have put in the thread is fine enough, whatever it is this time . 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Mike_West Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 So, it turns out that for the purposes of remaking my prop backpack, one well-programmed microcontroller will do the job at which a simpler electronic contraption (555, transistor, capacitors, resistors) utterly failed.

FireKnife Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 I now own a G-Spec thanks to money! Now to sight in the irons I have on it and get it pushing best range stock on .28s, I have a plan for this one I do. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 GTA-V Holy *suitcase*. Why did I wait so long for it to be under £30 in a sale? This game is worth £60. I should have bought it months ago... Link to post Share on other sites

Mike_West Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 GTA 5 is good. GTA Online is not... Only because most of the players are utter toolshops and can't even come up with half a plan, ending with most heists getting wiped for the dumbest reasons. Link to post Share on other sites

First person driving after a night on the booze should be mandatory to anyone thinking of drink driving - so difficult. Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I must admit GTA V is one of those few games that even if they sold me the game for £10 then made me micropay missions at 10-20p a game I would consider it and be broke. That game is so much of the good things. Also, turns out that I can get a £1.60 bus each way to my 'local' airsoft shop, better yet the bus is about one every 10mins and takes about an hour so I can catch up on my 3DS time .

hitmanNo2 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Is that an hour each way? Also, this made me chuckle. It's face ha ha. Link to post Share on other sites
