    The lovely guys at Skirmshop have sent me out the new VSR/SSG10 Scorpion piston to have a play with and although I’m not able to get out to a site yet to try it on the range, I thought I’d have a look at it vs the original weighted piston, the WASP, which is currently…

    Magpulls, nothing from Magpul. Often in airsoft when you hear players talk about upgrading, its all for performance on the target range. Shooting further, adding fps until it’s 1 under the limit, more accuracy, maybe making it look pretty. And yeah, some of that of course is going to be useful. What is often ignored,…

    It’s been a long time since I did anything with my VSR internally. No reason to really, it shot well, up to around 90m. Was reliable enough. Had seen a few years of action and never missed a beat (I was going to type target there…). As with many good VSR builds, it centred around…

    (featured image – Raw War, Carlisle) Can’t remember how many there are to be honest, so I’ll go with the 7 that i can remember/may have made up. These are the things you need to think about in the field. Having a good ghillie suit or camouflage system is only half of the battle. You need…

    The complete ghillie building guide. I’ve been working on a few little camouflage articles lately, but decided that instead of having lots of seperate articles to flick through, I’d just put them all in one place, and have one resource to help you build a suit from scratch, or help develop your current one. Rather…

    What is the best airsoft sniper rifle? The eternal question. I’m going to put the case forward for the VSR platform. Anyone who knows me from social media will recognise the hashtag above. It’s not just a love of the rifle though, I do have reasons for recommending it and I thought I might as…

    Camping, laying around in bushes. Are snipers lazy players? I was following a post in a general airsoft group on Facebook and there’s clearly a very different perception of the sniper role from those who do it, and the wider community. But I don’t think it’s fair to label us snipers as lazy, or campers.…

    A few months back, I got together with a few other players in the north to organise a new kind of sniper weekend event. Hosted by Raw War Airsoft Cumbria over the weekend of 9/10th Feb 2019, Sniperworks One was our test run at doing something a bit different… There are, of course, a few…

    I’ve been set a challenge by Point6 Airsoft, to put together three different loadouts for an airsoft sniper, on very different budgets. It’s a good opportunity to delve into some kit articles and discuss different approaches, so I’ve accepted. Point6 will do videos (link at bottom) , I’ll blog it, and we’ll discuss ideas the…
