The Official Questions Thread Version: "Charlies in the trees, what do I need to get rid of them?"

[GordonZombie]

I've been looking for a decent pair of waterproof boots that'd be good in woodland terrain within the price range of about £40-50 since I've started airsofting at a site where there it tends to get muddy when it rains and there's a huge ravine with a stream leading down it which often has to be traversed. Anyways, I've found a couple of candidates that don't look too bad but I figured it was best to run them through here first and, if possible, see if there were any other suggestions out there.

I was thinking of buying a KA M4 in two weeks. Wanted to get an M4 for the new CQB field that's opening up here and I was wondering if King Arms are a decent brand? The reviews I've watched say its pretty decent but I want to know for sure. Anyone here have one of their metal M4 aegs that are front wired? I don't really feel like buying locally because the next cheapest skirmishable M4 is a CM16 and it's only about $40 cheaper compared.

I just want an alright front-wired M4 because I really don't like the crane stocks.

In terms of internal build quality, the CM16 will beat it, the King Arms will probably look better, but it's hard to beat a CM16.

Meh, guess I gotta get a CM16 then. I just really like the feel and weight of metal guns, held my friend's Combat Machine (the one with the rails) and it feels a bit too light for my tastes.

Another question, I remember reading somewhere on here that soviet propaganda is an okay site to order things from, well, is it?

After a few hours of gameplay a 6 or 7 pound gun feels like it weighs about 20 lbs.

[paindoc]

And an LMG feels like a hunk of lead.

Does anyone know if Evike or AirsoftGI will be running cyber monday deals? I have $200 to spend and I might spend it on BB Warz

Before I had my steel WOC, I had a poly G&G (like the CM). I didn't realize how much I absolutely loved the lightweight G&G's until I started lugging around a steel AR.

I do believe my dislike of the realistic weight of my LM4 is well known.

[paindoc]

Just gotta get more gains brah

But seriously even my AK feels hella heavy after a long game.

I still want an LMG , gonna be m249 RPK or PKM. Maybe m60vn if I actually start working out. I like Russian guns but all the surplus stuff I have is US Vietnam era and with some mad gainz my flak jacket and an m60vn I could go Animal Mother mode

All that being said (that turned ramble-y fast) does the m60vn have any huge issues that make it an unworthy machine?

I'm planning on working out and getting fit as my new years resolution, so it'll be nice to finally play Airsoft while being in shape.

The receiver yeah, but everything contained inside of that is steel.

Anyone have a clue how to remove the front sight of a CYMA MP5?

What he said, plus the WOC has a steel outer barrel which makes it feel impossibly heavy.

It's actually a couple pounds heavier than my real AR - and my real AR has a 6 inch longer barrel :v:.

You won't be able to get a GIF avatar unless you're a gold member, which it seems isn't availible atm.

[CubeManv2]

you can do .apng though (animated PNG) but only firefox users see it (I'll be able to see it!)

anyone know if evike or asgi will have cyber monday stuff i should look for?

STABO harness

Besides the STABO harness, He has an M56 belt with two mag pouches, a canteen, pistol holster and a buttpack. Not sure what the real equivalent of the pouch on the rear right side of the belt is, but you could just use another M56 mag pouch.

[CottonTM]

The minute I get more than one M4 midcap into my dump pouch, the whole point of using midcaps is defeated and I sound like a tactical bongo.

I was moving up on somebody on Sunday and I realized how much noise I was making so I literally reached in and frisbee-emptied the empty mags onto the ground before going any further lol.

The only way I can think to solve this would be to wrap each mag in something but that's a no-go since my pouches are so tight-- or to have some sort of separator insert within the dump pouch. I think that stuffing fabric down into it to shorten it wouldn't solve the problem with any substantial movement.

[GREN EYGS N HAM]

Is it possible to fold the top of the pouch down into it and then put the mags in? If so you could easily stuff the mags back into the same pouch they came from when they're depleted.

[Nikpo]

I don't keep my empty mags in the dump pouch for long. I usually just throw them in there if I need to do super duper hispeed tac reloads. As soon as there's a lull I move them back into my pouches, but upside down or facing the other way or I close the flap, or w/e.

[GREN EYGS N HAM]

Tossing them on the ground like an idiot, which I am, also works really well.

I thought about that but don't want to dirty up the bb entry holes- I guess I'll just start being particular about left-right facing and re-insert them. Blue force gear pouches are tight elastic with no upper covers which is why re-inserting takes some effort. They're a very tight and secure fit, but I can manage to start doing that.

All my mag pouches are doubles so normally once I fire two mags I rotate the pair of mags in my rear pouches to the front and put the empties in the rear. That all depends on spare time though, I've fit 14 magazines into a dump pouch before and I'll do it again if I have to.
