My copy arrived this morning, courtesy of Airsoft Scotland.

Just flicking through it, I see a GBB disassembly guide by snowman. Very nice. Flicking further forward (yes, I was reading the Japanese way laugh.gif), I come across numerous reviews of kit and guns. Superb. Then a geardo feature. Yummy.

Flicking towards the front, I see the Arnie's Airsoft logo in the top left of the news page. 'Sweet', I think. I flick another page forward, and I find...

...that the entire news section is WRITTEN BY ARNIE.

Top stuff, it really is.

This stuff's a mile above Safezone ever was - nicely written, no dodgy articles with bits missed off, great pics, lots of reviews, well-written news, and no sickening 'ASCUK' branding all over it - it has Arnie's logo on both news pages, and his name on the staff list, and that's it.

This is great stuff, and props to you Arn wink.gif

I'm signing up now! biggrin.gif

I don't mean to sound like an ######, but what's with all this "sickening ASCUK branding" stuff?

Will definitely be interested in buying a copy if any are going to be available at AG biggrin.gif

It was just the way most of the articles within Safezone were written by ASCUK mods and the like, and ASCUK seemed to be the 'official sponsor' of the magazine.

In this case, there isn't really an 'official sponsor' - the articles are written by a wide range of people from different sites. Arnie gets some free advertising, but that's it - he only writes the news, and gets a small benner of his site for the trouble. Seems fair to me.

Doubt there'll be any at AG, but I'll bring mine for you to look at. Airsoft Scotland only want £3.50 plus P&P for a copy so it's not too bad.

By the way, the G&G M14 gets pwned with a review score of 4/10 rofl.gif

Was the review on the G&G M14 a before or after update model?

Cheers.

Before. It stopped functioning before they could finish the review laugh.gif

There's a list of improvements that G&G claim they've made at the end - they obviously got onto G&G about the poor quality.

Personally, seeing the ASCUK logo on anything is enough to put me off. They're a bunch of inbred thugs, bullies and morons.

I would never touch anything with an ASCUK logo on it. If a shop affiliated itself with them I'd never shop there again. If equipment or guns were endorsed by them I'd refuse to buy it. If a site was connected with them I wouldn't play there.

Is that clear enough? wink.gif

So in one day, you've slagged off everyone on ASCUK AND Airsoft Retreat?

I take it only Arnie's contributors are worthy biggrin.gif

But where does that leave forum-whores, like me? ohmy.gif

But not everyone on ASCUK is like that. I daresay that ASCUK think there are some inbred thugs, bullies and morons on Arnie's tongue.gif

I don't know the whole story behind it all and I'm not really wanting to know, it just seems a bit strange for their to be such rivalry between two Internet forums.

I guess all that stuff about "Internet. SERIOUS BUISNESS!" is true after all wink.gif

Seeing as the title is "international" it would be silly not to. Send them an email.

The review was a b4, infact the m14's came directly from G&G via Red Wolf, we do have another two on their way from G&G which one will be placed on long term test and we'll give the other one away as a competition prize
