Sometimes it’s not what you know, but who you know. It certainly helps when it comes to getting ahold of something that’s prohibitively expensive, or just plain old hard to get. It just so happens that recently, a friend of a friend was nearing the end of his time kicking down doors and shooting watermelons,... Continue Reading →
Forums... Damn, I miss forums. They gave you an endless resource where questions could be asked, answers could be found, things could be bought, sold and swapped... So why the hell did we ever migrate away from them? The answer is probably linked closely to the massive rise in smartphone usage around 2008, with the... Continue Reading →
Crye’s JPC (Jumpable Plate Carrier) has for quite some time been used as the benchmark of how to make a lightweight and highly mobile plate carrier, whilst its not a one size fits all solution built for everyone’s needs, it has become a common sight on those who often have the pick of the litter...

Coffee! I’m not talking about the shit with Viking skulls and cringy quotes on the packet, I’m talking about honest to god, decent coffee. Although I’m partial to one or two of these veteran owned coffee brands (BRCC in particular make a couple of fantastic blends), in all honesty, there are often better (and far... Continue Reading →
For more than a few years now, I’ve considered Holosun as a brand that provides a great balance between cost and ability. Offering their customers a product with good overall performance, lots of features whilst remaining relatively modest when it comes to their pricing. One of the only downsides until now, was the lack of... Continue Reading →
We all talk about headshots, should they be banned or are they just part of the game? Whilst its easy to say that there’s two sides to the argument, the truth is that it’s more of a sliding scale. Every one of us has a set of principals that were defined by, for some people... Continue Reading →
The majority of EOTech clones are utter shit, there’s not really much else you can say on the matter. I’ve yet to see an EOTech clone that meets the expectations and requirements of even a mere airsofter. They’re either the wrong shape, the wrong colour, prone to breaking, unable to hold a zero or... More... Continue Reading →
Why Marui choose to make certain models and not others is a confusing question to answer. It’s a question that always comes up when I see their new releases. Is it because they’re totally disconnected from reality? Is it because they’re confident enough that whatever they build will sell? Or is it because they’re only... Continue Reading →
Spoiler alert, this year was pretty shit. I barely feel qualified to call myself an airsofter anymore, certainly I’ve spent more Sundays at home being bossed around than I’d care to admit to. I’d usually have a great deal of event stuff to talk about, certainly a few more pictures of me actually playing. But... Continue Reading →
Slings, they’ve pretty much run out of ideas haven’t they? Well yes, but actually no. Whilst there’s not been any radical changes in the last decade or two, we have seen the humble “2 point” evolve from a simple webbing strap to an essential part of a tactical shooting platform. The idea that whatever is... Continue Reading →
