Danger Crow's Nest

Danger Crow is a good friend of mine, you should have a look at his blog!

LINK - http://dangercrow.blogspot.com/





If you like airsoft videos and you already know of scoutthedoggie's
channel on youtube, and, if you want another source of airsoft videos,
then try Milsimjunkie. I discovered his channel on one of my regular
youtube browsing sessions and I have to say, his videos are very good,
and they take place on one indoor site called CQB city, which looks
 like an awsome site! He even has some comedic videos in there too!
I highly advise visiting his youtube channel, and his blog I'll put links to
his blog and youtube channel below.

Music Matrix Game

I was just looking at videos on youtube and then clicking the ones on the side which interested me and ended up watching nyan cat related videos, and in the description of one of these videos was a link to a nyan cat game, then i explored that site and came across this game, which isn't so much a game as a music thingy'm'bob which is quite fun, you make music by filling in the gaps, and there are a lot of gaps! I have no images of it but I'll leave it to you to explore the many possible bits of music you can create using it!

Colt 25 airsoft pistol

When my first pistol broke, which was due to it's having plastic internals which couldn't withstand the force the force of the spring inside the gun, I decided upon buying this pistol, mainly because its small and has 2 magazines. It was a good pistol for the two weeks it lasted! I cocked it, it made an unusual click, and jammed. I pulled the top back again, and a bit of plastic fell out. I soon discovered that it was a vital part of the gun as it no longer worked! Moral of the story? DON'T buy cheap plastic pistols unless they come from action hobbies. I'm not including a link to it as its an awful gun and a waste of money.

Bison 701 SVD

I quite like the SVD, and I would have liked one as a cheap bb gun, and now, I have one...well, I got it a while ago but hey! Better late than never to mention it! Many sites claim it has a 300 round mag, it doesn't. It holds a total of 30 rounds in it's magazine, which isn't too bad. You can get it from various sites, which I will put links to at the bottom. I bought mine from BBguns4less, purely because justbbguns had sold out within a week of getting it in stock. You can get a scope and mount for it, I will put links to those at the bottom, or at least, the mount. It can use either .20g or .12g bbs, I use .12g bbs as it provides an fps of 447 roughly, as opposed to 360 with .20g bbs, which I prefer. It's a good gun, the hop is easy to adjust, but not on the field, and its very comfortable. I may do a review for it...possibly, as all the reviews Iv'e found are kinda inconclusive and not in depth. but anyway, time to bring this to a close, if you want a cheap two tone SVD, the Bison 701 is the gun for you!

M83 Double Eagle AEG

The M83 Double Eagle
The D94S M4S

   






The M83, I read many a review where people said it was a bad gun. And now mine has died, I have to agree. The reason it 'died' is not due to its being used a lot, its due to shoddy workmanship on its attachments. The normal barrel slid out of the part which screws into the gun as I picked it up by it, and the gun hit the floor stock first resulting in a jammed adjustable stock. That was particularly  annoying as it was fully extended at the time, and I used it as a CQB M4 a fair amount of the time. Then, today, as I tried to unjam the stock, it snapped off (quite how this happened, I do not know, as a cheaper smaller adjustable stock an a half size M4/M16 did not snap off when I unjammed it). I then picked it up by the grip, which somehow managed to lose it's grip on the rail it was attached to and this caused the gun to again, fall onto the floor, this caused damage to the ABS plastic towards the middle of the gun, which in turn seems to have bent the inner barrel somehow and now, BBs cannot be fired in it. It is an okayish gun for a beginner, but I have to say that the D94S M4S would be better value as it has two high capacity motorized magazines at a slightly lower price. This compared to the M83's 45 round magazine and lack of any type of high capacity magazine puts it at a disadvantage. The D94s M4S doesn't come with as many attachments, but they aren't needed on an AEG, but, nor does it have many rails, again though, they aren't needed on an AEG. To put it simply, The D94S M4S is better value for your money. But it is your money.

ICS L86 AEG video

As promised, here is the video with the L86 in it, it appears at around 0.45 and isn't in it for long, but hey, thar ya go. If you liek airsoft vids, you should visit scoutthedoggie's channel.

Turtle Beaches

Just got some Turtle Beaches X11s, and I've gotta say, they are nice! They're comfortable, and help me to hear anyone nearby on MW2. They've saved my bacon many a time. Problem is, I'm freak out whenever I hear an RC-XD on BlackOps... even if its a friendly one, and I end up running away from the sound when its on the other side of the map! But I have to say, they are worth every penny I spent on buying them. Only thing is, it took me a while to react to hearing enemy footsteps, but now, I can stalk someone for longer, only for a team mate to kill them... which always gets on my nerves.

HFC 17 Glock

The HFC 17 springer pistol isn't a bad gun. It's not brilliant either. It is a nice gun, easy to use, 15 round clip and its painted green not orange, but while it has the potential to be accurate, it isn't always. sometimes it'll hit it's target, other times it won't. I've gone with a whole clip hitting where I want, but I've also done the exact opposite, and the conditions were similar. I personally like it though as a cheap single shot Glock. I quite like the Glock, why I do, I don't know, but I always have so this was a definite buy for me. I don't regret it, I'll say  that much.

ICS L86 AEG

I've FINALLY found an L86 bb gun, and it ain't a bad quality one either. I found it on Wolf Armouries and I can get it (even tho' i'm not UKARA registered) as they spray guns if you want, its an extra cost, but hey, ITS AN L86! (if you didn't know, I like SA80s and other variants of it) it ain't cheap tho', it'll set you back £384.99, and the two tone paint job is a fiver, so why get this when I could get the SA80 for less? This has a higher FPS and longer barrel with a bipod, it also has a larger mag. The longer barrel makes for higher accuracy as does the bipod. And the FPS means it can use heavier bbs which increase accuracy, and as its FPS is higher than the normal SA80s FPS, it doesn't matter if the FPS drops a bit. Put a link to it in the description, I also found a video by scoutthedoggie with one in it, albeit for a short amount of time, ill post that later.
