    I was just thinking since I got my new airsofts today how do some of you personalise yours. I mean do you paint certain things on assault rifle or buy special grips for your pistol of go as far as to give it a custom paintjob or whatever it is you do to make your airsoft feel unique.

    Its all about what you like the look of. you'll notice you'll start to recognise guns you see on TV or movies, from these you'll get an idea of what you like and you can copy them.

    Its also a good idea to go back to the begining of the photo's thread here on boards and see what other people have done. you'll find things you like in there. :)

    I personally like to hang the entrails of slain zombies off of the handgrip..
    Ooh wait wrong thread...

    If you're gonna personalise your guns, try spraying parts camo colours and adding stuff you like.

    I start off by buying a rifle...
    Decide to make it uber gucci and unique'r than anything,
    Spend a small fortune on everything in the Magpul catalogue,
    Then look at my rifle, which turns out to be a mirror image of the rest of the rifles i own., :D
    stay away from magpul, its like heroin.,

    decide you want to be unique

    go buy an m4 and find out your one of many and get depressed

    decide that all is not lost and you can customize your m4 with magpul parts to still be unique

    cry into your pts parts as your still one of the crowd

    get counseling give up and you go by and Kalashnikov :)

    Go buy yourself a nice big ugly Manly Gun like a FAL
    personalize it, by putting yourself behind the trigger.

    Nice and simple Job Done! :D

    Scratch build. It's the only way. It's also the most expensive and troublesome way.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 2,654 Mod ✭✭✭✭horgan_p


    I like to do the do internals .
    Modify gearset , tightbore barrel , hop rubber and motor

    Looks like a bog standard m4 , but oh sweet lord when you pull that trigger !!

    Honestly?
    No. I'd be afraid to go to Richies house.
    Richie, any photos of the tanned P90?

    If there is such a thing as gun porn, what you are asking for is one of those bizarre fetishes that should never see the light of day.

    Or be asked for in public...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,205 ✭✭✭Firekitten


    If there was gunporn, richie would be Hugh Heffner.... (and the hawks his bunnies)



    Yeah, a tan p90 is quite wrong in the way that say... pooping on people is wrong. (Yes it is before someone objects and gets ridiculed)

    Personally, I like my guns unoriginal... Standard issue style... its kinda rare in airsoft lol... Plus, Not many own my guns thankfully... Though there will be atleast 4 other tavor's at the event this weekend *glares*

    Thats just something I dont want to see. Ever. <shudders>

    Then bring the Sa80, a proper gun:D

    I'd be the same, standard issue, simple and effective (although i did recently buy a p90 box mag:eek: )

    Not as bad as I feared. But still...

    Anyway, I find that once you have a gun awhile, it doesnt matter about personalisation, its just yours, and other guns never feel quite the same.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    The world of 'tan' just got alot sexier.

    If you want to make your gun looks original, don't bother with fancy parts or paint jobs, just get out to the field and put abit of wear and tear on it.

    I'm trying to justify it to myself because i only use it in the warehouse, my high caps always jam, and i cant afford mids

    Once the new 416 arrives, it'll be but put to pasture though
