    got it already., to be honest its a load of cr*p, nothing in it you wouldnt already know and the review on the MK23 socom reads like Tokyo Marui wrote it themselves.,

    have to agree there load of rubbish all very basic lots of mistakes, if you want to try something different give airsoft solider issue 1 has just come out also the 2 or 3 free online mags that are out there have far superior content

    Puding are you from Killarney? If so when are you going to open a site in the Gap of Dunloe or Torc ? Even Ladies view.... I can see a take the hill with one group sitting at the cafe firing down on the unfortunates coming up the hill from the lake :o

    Agree. I am very dissapointed with AI lately. Lots of nothing.

    Only seen it once (last months issue) and was not impressed - very small mag (with a good few ads) and a whole lot of nothing in it. You could read through the whole thing in Easons before they move you on!

    nothing that you cant already read on line, a waste of money , i have noticed that the editorial staff seem to write all the gear reviews , probably cos they got it off a rep for free ....

    found it - easons cunningly stack them out the back.
    most thoughtful of them

    Originally AI was pretty decent. Now they've run out of material and are printing sh1t.

    Yep, AI was pretty good when it came out first. Now it seems to be full of ads, little practical content, and loads of childish spelling mistakes.
    The Mk.23 review was a black gun on an even blacker background. Pretty poor stuff.
    Needs a bit of shelf competition I reckon.

    about the only bit i found interesting was the back page of it, notice their making a lot more of them funky coloured AEGs for the VCRA thingy bob.,

    SIG 552
    R85
    AK47
    G36c
    "Thunder Maul" (that funky M4-alike from an anime cartoon)
    HK416
    BAR 10 sniper
    XM8
    SM6
    and last but not least,
    the JG AUG RAS, notice they aint calling it the AUG A3., :)

    yea this issue was a load of wollop! :mad:

    Seem to be plenty of copies in Easons in Liffey Valley. Packed with Ads though. When a mag gets to the stage when they are using ads as filler I usually stop buying it. Don't think it will be different with this mag..... Quite disappointed.
