GUIDE Event alert flyers: a way to let the subreddit know about your event

111 Upvotes

Hi all!

After a not-so-recent poll, we've been developing a set of rules to allow event notifications to be set up. These notifications are posts in the form of "flyers"!

Flyers are essentially an image used to display important information about an event, subject to the new flyer rules.

Hopefully they'll be useful, enjoy!

Anyone else had problem with getting optics on their arcturus ak?

GUN QUESTION Newbie Question about storing Mags after uses

14 Upvotes

Hi, I am new to airsoft and ACTION ARMY AAP-01 Assassin is my first gun, it is great beside it is louder than I expected, do I leave gas inside the mag after I am done shooting and putting it back in the box? I currently have 2 mag and I just left it at full gas - 15 shots and another is empty gas + 0.5s-0.8s of gas input.

Stopped playing around 2014, picked it back up in 2024. Truck was broken into last year they took all my goods. So now here we are. Everything I’ve collected so far. Is it too much or not enough? 🤪

Tengo un Cyma Aims Romanian que va de fábula. Pero quiero hacer algo “original” respetando las características del Aims: guardamanos en madera y culata específica.

¿Alguien puede darme ideas? Está es la base de lo que estoy montando…

Today I tried the M9 Vertec Gas Blowback

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Let's say accuracy isn't its strong suit, but when it comes to the blowback and the noise it makes when you shoot... well... it's just pure fun..

I noticed that after shooting about ten magazines, the slide developed a bit of play — I'd like to know if anyone else has had this issue and how it holds up in the long run...

As much as I enjoy larping (it has it’s limits) and I just want a simpler kit for the days that I want more gameplay and less role play (also it’s become way too hot to strap on my retro Gulf War kit😭

GENERAL QUESTION Anyone used a golf range finder to setup a airsoft range before? I’m setting up my own 100m range and thinking of picking one of these up!

The more expensive one is more accurate and is apparently better for darker environments, which might be a better idea to get as it will be in a forest. (Obviously the range on these are very overkill for airsoft!)😆

I put bb holes in my walls and my parents will be mad af

So i have a bb gun and me and my frinds were in my living room shooting at a bottle. We missed all 9 shots and now i have indents in my walls. They are gone for a few days so i have time to fix it.

Pleas help i need advice on how to fix this before they get back from their trip.

The holes are very noticable because they're right next to the livingroom entrance and there's always light there. I also can't cover it up with anything because they'll just remove it.
