this is a great party
Today sucked. Hollywood sports has gone ADD. We'll still be in the middle of a round, maybe not even half of each team has been out, and they whistle in "TWO MINUTES." Every single game we could've kept going and they ended it. I really wish I had somewhere else to airsoft. Jericho Camp Pendleton is okay, but I don't drive yet and it's 2 hours away. Tac city is CQB, and I don't know if I like CQB. Regardless, I don't own a pistol. Time to look into Jericho Lake Elsinore.
As well as an overall bad day of airsoft, I got some black ink stuff on the back of my vest. Some dickbag probably decided it'd be a good idea to play with black ink paintballs, seeing as HSP is also a paintball field (and comes with all the [I]simply wonderful[/I] attributes of a paintball field). It got all over my hands and the back of my vest might be stained. I washed most of it out but I don't know what it's going to look like when it's dry.
AND my gun's hopup is incredibly inconsistent. It's ridiculous, one second it won't shoot 75 feet without arcing waaay down. Another it'll be way up in the air, but it's not per shot. Every 30 minutes or so it'll decide to switch from way too little hop to way too much hop. Got me killed like 4 times, because all of a sudden I had to adjust my hop so it wasn't shooting into fucking space.
And to top it all off, around 5 o'clock some kind of fuse in my gun blew. All of my batteries are charged, and none of them worked. I had a motor problem before, where it was trying to rotate but it couldn't so it clicked every time I pulled the trigger. This isn't even clicking, and one of the guys that worked there looked at it and came to the same conclusion. I guess CA wiring is that bad.
I'm really regretting going with CA, simply because now I either get lucky and am still under my one year warranty, or pay AEX at ridiculous rates to fix it because I don't know if I could go into such an undertaking as replacing the wiring.
I'd honestly avoid Tac City for the rest of the summer, most of the people I've been running into have pretty much been either a newbie or HIGH SPEED LOW DRAG SLAYING BODIES ALL THE TIME. Getting surrendered by someone using the paintball stance and when their head isn't even pointed in your direction is not a fun experience, only gets worse when you try to contend it and the ref is one of their buddies.
Let's add to the bad news.
So, yesterday's game got rained out, so I won't be able to play for another two weeks, not to mention I don't really have any skirmishable gear. I have my M4 and a hi-cap mag, so you can trust me when I say I don't spray all over the field, because I really have to conserve being on one mag.
And my 18th birthday is coming up, so I can finally participate in Florida OP's.
Except for the fact I have no money to celebrate my birthday.

Is Classic Army that bad?
A teammates's CA AK had his hopup crack yesterday at the game.
I've never had a problem with Classic Army. The only time I did was after I took it apart with no idea what I was doing and even then it still works.
Also,
I got my Gasmask today. It's really small compared to my GP5, that' because it only covers the front of the face to allow air circulation unlike the GP5, it's a lot better looking then the other two I have and it fits all 40mm filters which are really common. Several straps in the back are all adjustable and it came with a neat sealed carrying case.

Ooooh I want one of those for my future STALKER loadout, link?
It's made in Germany, you know the Germans always make good stuff.

I got it off Ebay for 99cents, about $10 with shipping.
This is the same one and it includes the filter, a bag etc. unlike mine although at a higher price not including shipping.

Haha, I have that bag in the basement too. Aside from the missing filter I have a full set. I should order a bunch next paycheck.
Cool beans, thanks.
Cause I'm about to get that CA M16 and you guys are giving me cold feet. And how good is that for a first gun?
It was my first true AEG. I still have it and I still use it after four years. If I didn't decide to go inside and fuck around it'd still be perfect. I recommend it.
Ah, which model is it?
The M15 A4 Carbine, the one with the clean hand guards and full stock. The tradmarks make the weapon beautiful and the build is solid and realistic. I'll probably buy their blow-back M15 A4 when this one dies, although it may be awhile.
Oh, ok. The one I'm about to buy is the CA m15a4, but the full rifle, not carbine. The only thing that bothers me is that there are so many AR15s out there.
Yeah, it's nothing unique anymore but that's only because AR's are a solid choice. There are so many of them but upgrade and repair parts are abundant and cheap because of it.
It's a trade-off usually.
Yeah, and all the unique guns I like are over $300 (Tavor, L85/6,) impractical (WW2) or no good manufacturer (XM8).
Oh God. It's CA M16a4 vs G&G M16a3 for me.
[QUOTE=Kman1;23943166]Cause I'm about to get that CA M16 and you guys are giving me cold feet. And how good is that for a first gun?[/QUOTE]
I would, if I could do it again, have gone with G&G or G&P.
Yeah, my buddy told me not to. So I'm getting a G&G M16a3. It's basically an M16A4 in Airsoft.
I'm assuming its just an M16A4 but tagged with the A3 because it has full auto?
Probably. It even has a removable carry handle, I'm pretty sure only the A4s have those.
Now that you mention it..
Haha, I was wondering why G&G didn't carry an M16A4, maybe they didn't want to make one without 3 round burst?
Probably. Three-Round burst on an airsoft gun is a bitch to pull off..
What someone needs to do is make one though, like the current issue M16, semi and burst, removable carrying handle, rails on all four sides of the hand guard with rails included etc.

The bottom one.

So, anyway what is a good forum to try and sell/trade airsoft guns? I want to throw my P90 out there and see if anyone bites.
You could try the buy/sell/trade board at operatorchan.
Actually, all you need for a three round burst weapon is an Active Breaking MOSFET. Those aren't too hard to install.
They're also a $100, worth it but still costly. Especially to sell on stock guns.
Any other trade/selling sites you guys know about?
Actually TheAirsoftReviewer1 on YouTube was selling them for $30. I think he still has some.
