[QUOTE=Apache249;45394577]Never really heard of any issues, and I've never had any issues, myself.[/QUOTE] assuming I don't pay for the express shipping or whatever, and just get the 13 dollar shipping, about how accurate is the ten day estimate that it gave me?

[QUOTE=Zero_X54321;45394592]assuming I don't pay for the express shipping or whatever, and just get the 13 dollar shipping, about how accurate is the ten day estimate that it gave me?[/QUOTE] Fairly accurate.

G&P Stoner is love G&P Stoner is life

Does anybody know where to get outer barrel/RIS shims? I'm in desperate need.

[img]http://puu.sh/adste/c71776a775.png[/img] how the fuck does this happen I'm having feeding issues with the shotgun, i'll pump it and the BBs will go into the tube that opens up the shell, but BBs are not fired at all, what's causing it?

Somebody is seeling a TM 5.1 Hi Capa for half the price. I... I don't know what to do...

[QUOTE=Arctic Aveng;45404890]Somebody is seeling a TM 5.1 Hi Capa for half the price. I... I don't know what to do...[/QUOTE] While it'll certainly be good, I always recommending guying new GBB's if able; little touches and smoothness wear off on even the best maintained guns, so while its probably fully functional it most likely won't "feel" new.

Could be one, or several of the pistons inside have broken. Mine started shooting one BB at a time so I threw it away.

I don't know if this is entirely airsoft related but I figured I should post it here anyways I'm wondering if theres a place where I can buy custom patches in this design: [thumb]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/94406845/92sierra.png[/thumb] its a huge joke with my best friend and I and he wants a real one sent to him (hes currently stationed as an infantryman in africa)

Anyone know anything about the SRC XM8? I've gotten a huge fetish for them recently and I was wondering if it was worth grabbing.

[QUOTE=ShadowSocks8;45410797]Anyone know anything about the SRC XM8? I've gotten a huge fetish for them recently and I was wondering if it was worth grabbing.[/QUOTE] IIRC, pretty much nobody makes the XM8 other than crap-tier WELL, JLS, and BE so SRC is probably your best bet out there.

If you want an XM8 that is. I still have never heard anything especially good about SRC's XM8 though.

Get a speedloader which includes the piece on the left. [img]http://i.imgur.com/NkLMH7Q.jpg[/img] You mount that piece on the speedloader, apply firm pressure onto the feed lips and load it.

[QUOTE=Vodkavia;45412498]The pistol adaptors that came with all my other speed loaders is too small[/QUOTE]

D'oh.

So I'm looking at side-arms at the moment and I was wondering what Facepunch thought about holster positioning. Chest holster seems cool but I'm not that tall so I'm afraid it'll hit me in the chin everytime I crouch.

Unless you're mounting it way too high, you're supposed to be pulling it out, to the side and away from your chest instead of up towards your chin. [img]http://images-kitup.military.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Airman-chest-armor-holster.jpg[/img] [editline]17th July 2014[/editline] Although if you're also running a single point sling for your primary through your PC shoulder straps it might get caught and cause all sorts of trouble in that case just mount it to the side/belt.

Chest holster seems cool but I'm not that tall so I'm afraid it'll hit me in the chin everytime I crouch.[/QUOTE] Because I don't have anywhere else to put it and nothing else to put on it, I keep my holster on the left side of my Plate Carrier, It's a right handed holster, so I draw to my dominant hand and it's in a decent spot if you ask me. Maybe in a bit I'll add a picture of the setup to this post or something [T]http://i.imgur.com/fQCzsZ3.jpg[/T] I don't have a fancy holster or anything, it came with the Crossdraw vest I spent too much money on, and I keep a speedloader in the mag pouch part because that way I know where I put it last and my Pistol's mags are too big to fit in there anyway. so I keep them on my belt.

Opinions on M4 Stubby Killer - ARES? used 170€ I've fired and held one, it's lightweigh as a feather and has actually some range to it. But the offer sounds rather iffy

no

[QUOTE=the_killer24;45421211]no[/QUOTE] why exactly, though? Interested in the details

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;45421223]why exactly, though? Interested in the details[/QUOTE] ares are shit like seriously don't buy them, they thought putting a plastic gb in a $250+ aeg was a good idea

it's ares, so it has iffy internals it's ares, so it's made by the most assholish company in airsoft it's a stubby killer

What are some decent makes I should be after, whenever I want to swap AEG?

VFC M4 e-series or G&P full metal

Chest holster seems cool but I'm not that tall so I'm afraid it'll hit me in the chin everytime I crouch.[/QUOTE] I prefer on my belt, directly to my dominant side.

Generally the most comfortable spot is either directly on the belt or dropped slightly below with a UBL mount, which is also better if you need it lower to clear your vest.

[QUOTE=Malikyte;45412133]If you want an XM8 that is. I still have never heard anything especially good about SRC's XM8 though.[/QUOTE] iirc I heard it uses the same internals as their G36s, which are on par/if not better than the JG G36s

[QUOTE=the_killer24;45421249]it's ares, so it has iffy internals it's ares, so it's made by the most assholish company in airsoft it's a stubby killer[/QUOTE] To be fair, Cybergun still has claim over the title of Most Assholish Airsoft Company.

What did cybergun do?
