amateurstuntman Posted March 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 How close to being "in" normal range is your 105? I don't know the rules there. Usually we have a bit of a 5% margin for players we know who can be trusted not to be a bell end. The other thing to consider is that if it is only just over is that you can wind the hop on a bit, it'll slow the bbs down and overhop them. It's worth a go if it's only a handful of fps.

Gunmane Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 It was a touch over the usual 400 fps with .2 limit that is enforced at most fields per out local state community guidelines (Was roughly 360 with .25 which per conversion calculators is saying 403 with .2 or 1.51 Joules). It may have been the chronos they had, or I just had better air seal at the moment due to it not being cold out, etc. They let me use it as if at 20 foot M.E.D because they know I am not a *beep* running around with a hpa setup overshooting kids. I ran semi anyways because I tend to stick to that anyways. Really need to just break the spring in more but again, never fire enough to do so, and the whole spring compressed thing usually does not work for me. Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted March 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 That's less than 1 percent. A tiny tickle on the hop will get you back under that. If it happens again. Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 I'd expect that to be within the error of the chrono - did they test with another one as well to make sure? Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 Most sites I play at if it’s over it’s over, no ifs ands or buts. But then again it’s a CQB site with no DMRs Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted March 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Seems harsh. At my place 1% is acceptable. Link to post Share on other sites
sandstorm Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Could be they want toi play it safe for insurance. Or they ahve higher-than-average amount of people who badger an inch into mile, so go for the harsh 'No' to all deviations just to keep things from escalating? Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 This is why sites do - or used to, at least - set their limits lower than the legal maxi, so that they can account for error in the chrono, etc and still be legal.If you go right upto the legal limit, then you have no margin for error.

Gunmane Posted April 25, 2021 Report Share Posted April 25, 2021 I got to go out and sling bbs two weekends in a row, something I cannot recall doing in years/possibly ever. Local game the weekend before and yesterday I drove halfway across the state (mind you I barely drive anywhere and all the highways had construction so was terrifying) to visit the field I first played an actual event at over a decade ago. Glad the two event hosts from the local field convinced me to make the trek, as it was a good time trekking up and down ridge lines, trying to charge across a marsh (don't do that folks), and securing various zip lock bags of "drugs". I had on Friday made a new motor wire set for my oldest kalash to convert it from a 74m to the older wood stock 74 to see how it runs on 11.1v finally, and it worked out great. Everything else in life is *suitcase* but at least this keeps me going. Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted April 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 Great news. My site opened back up on the 18th and we had 200 people. It was busy, I was nervous, the team were rusty but I think we did a good job. Now we have to put that behind us and get ready for 200 more people on the 2nd. Link to post Share on other sites
Mike_West Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Slap some sense into me, I'm considering buying the Amoeba Striker AS-02 (full stock, short barrel) in grey and a silencer adapter in order to put an Osprey can, an ACOG and a Dedsec-inspired paintjob and stickerbomb on it. And that after changing my mind from an UMP with a threaded aftermarket barrel... Link to post Share on other sites
Mike_West Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 Hahaha, things are getting worse. Or better, depending on your viewpoint. I found a WE PLR-16 with a stock in a Czech webshop, 280 euros shipped, taxed, etcetera. That's at least 50 euros cheaper than getting it from HK. Then, I'd put an ACOG and an Osprey can on it, and work on modding the stock into something less unsightly (getting an actual SU-16 stock with a full trigger mech is legal here, but they're off the market anyway).

Mike_West Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 Found GI Joe/The Expanse vests locally for Ł35 or thereabouts, meaning they're not just cheaper than AliExpress, they'll be shipped in two days instead of two months.

Mike_West Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 In a mad last-minute dash, I managed to get a JG M870 shotgun with a wooden stock. Now, I'll need a magazine extension and a heatshield. Link to post Share on other sites

Mike_West Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 So I managed to get my Hong Kong orders this week, including the extended tube for the shotgun and an Army extended Glock mag. The Glock mag is a wee bit too enthusiastic in its gas output, but still serviceable. Link to post Share on other sites
