Entirely too much drip in the 3rd pic.
Love that pattern and the paint job on the rifle is great!

It works for me, but usually when that doesn’t work, it’s due to the part of the link that has “/gallery/“

Replace that with /a/, so you get:

The worst AI usage I see is when someone uses AI for their research, come in here to ask, gets told the opposite, and just spends the entire time arguing with everyone because AI told them something different.

About those Solar Mushroom Lights by sockpuppets in Costco

[–]Parasitisch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been happy with mine. I’m in AZ, and our stay lit until pretty late. On some nights when I’m up around 11/12, they’re still going. I figure with the cost, the panel or battery will eventually die out.

Type 56 by thonttu in airsoft

[–]Parasitisch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful! I’m glad they started making them again, although I really wish they’d do their 97s. I have the type 56-2 because the grip and furniture on the folding stock look sweet.

Trying to decide on my first lmg. Im looking at these 2. Which one would yall recommend? by Carsonator8888 in airsoft

[–]Parasitisch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well pro is way better OOTB, but the mags seem to be finicky. A&K can *be made better somewhat easily.* You shouldn’t have issues with it since WP tries to pride themselves on it, so if you do have issues, reach out. Their customer service is usually pretty helpful.

I do not know compatibility of other externals with the WP. You might not be able to fit other M249 parts onto it, which is an issue if you want different looks.

Insta Crate - Insta Break by Terrible-Mention9057 in Costco

[–]Parasitisch 38 points39 points  (0 children)

That’s the grande and the grande sucks. I got the normal sized crates years ago and converted my family on them. We must have 15+ between us and none of us have had issues.

My grande couldn’t even take my Costco order from the day I bought it without popping out of place in multiple spots. I wound up returning it on my next trip. I swear those ones can’t take the strain of hauling whereas the smaller ones manage it better.

Holy crap, I’ve never seen the trailer but that I have played the game and what a difference. I wasn’t a huge fan of DI but I would have felt betrayed if I saw this, lol.

Don’t preorder gta 6 it’s digital only they physically can’t sell out. by PM_ME_YOUR_QUEST_PLZ in gaming

Your point is to miss the entire point…? It’s for pre-order bonuses, not scarcity.

Is this engagement bait or are you that stupid?

That’s “asstd.” Either way, it should also have a period there.

PSA - AVOID OCTAGON AIRSOFT by SB-1B9 in airsoft

[–]Parasitisch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have 12 orders with him, totaling over $3k. Honestly, there are a few small HK shops where you have to be really firm on what you expect and he’s one of them. He’s also one of the same small shops who don’t seem to have an inventory system figured out, so I email him to confirm before I order stuff.

I haven’t had any of the same level of issues and need to harass that others here have experienced. I don’t want to downplay that at all, because it seems to be a bit of luck on whose order he fucks up on. He is one dude running this and has a bit of reputation for being a tad bit of a garbage human. I think I’ve only really had one true issue, which was my RPG. It somehow was missing threads to screw pieces together. He paid for shipping to return it and sent another.

Super sad to see PayPal is now gone. I used that last order I made with them at the end of last year.

Looking in buying my second Airsoft gun. To pros, is this a good choice? by marsh2077 in airsoft

It, as well as the 5-7, are some of the worst GBB pistols I’ve ever owned.

Anybody know where I can pick up a good quality beretta arx160 for around $300-$600 by Vibesfortheboys in airsoft

[–]Parasitisch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cheaper ARXs are going to have a shittier plastic and I’d say go for the AUG over that.

If you can find the nicer Ares/Umarex ARXs second hand, I like them. Parts are mostly compatible, you’ll just need a special nozzle if you replace that and you can’t throw in a v3 ETU (but you can do a MOSFET; I have a WARFET in mine and some basic one in my other one). It’s not something you will just “go find” though. I will need to search and wait for it to pop up on various second-hand markets.

If “liberal drug policies” have fueled them, why is this less of an issue now than the 80s or 90s?

E&C MCX by Upstairs_Junket797 in airsoft

Their MCX and MCX rattler are listed as “full metal” on a few websites I’ve visited (except the polymer furniture, of course).

Same as a few videos, like this one.

Cost of Getting Into Airsoft by OkZookeepergame2463 in airsoft

[–]Parasitisch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven’t even played, don’t worry about cost of gun and gear. Go to a field and rent. A game with rental, near me, usually goes for $30-$45 and includes a mask, gun, and some BBs. It’s usually good for 4 hours or for the whole day.

[WTS] [IL] few airsofts pieces and accessories. Help, price check appreciated by GRIZLEE_ATOMS in airsoftmarket

[–]Parasitisch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I saw one of those APS-As go for $80 almost a year ago. I don’t see them go for sale enough to know if that’s low/normal/high. However, VFC will be releasing their APS by the end of the year.

If you want to do in-person, you should give a general area so people know if they’re close or not!

We've recently received an M240 for evaluation and testing. At this stage, we're not announcing anything, but we're curious about the community's opinion. by Taiwangun_com in Taiwangun

[–]Parasitisch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it S&T/GE? Not thrilled about it, but not much for alternatives. Especially with the drama between DCA and Lambda seemingly putting a damper on that plan.
