Simmo what would you pay for a decent gel blaster? I presume there are good and bad models ? Cheers
My baby is about $2k!!
It really depends what you are after, what you want to use it for.
There are some rip offs out there no doubt.
Building yourself is a real hobbyist trait, patients is a virtue!
As mentioned, one of mine pictured is a HPA custom built M4 costing around $2k, powered by air, not battery.

Impressive bit of gear . When you say air powered does it use C02 cartridges or is that a pressure line at bottom of grip that goes to a canister ? Looks very similar to fittings we use on N02 ?

This thing is powered by a tank on your back.
My tank, I can only go to 3000psi, but there are folks that have the carbon tanks that push 4500 psi.
This pic is not mine, but gives you an idea??

Right now we're waiting for the rain 🌧 to arrive, we can hear the pitter patter as the light stuff starts. We've had 2 days of fine weather unlike the poor buggers south of Newcastle who have been hammered again. I've covered up the front sleeping area of the van with a tarp so the canvas will be dry when we pack up on Thursday, then it's off to Valla Beach for a couple of weeks.
hopefully you won’t get blown away mate. Stay Safe now. Mackka

Thanks Mackka, we'll be right, I feel sorry for the people getting flooded again, it must be devastating for them. Cheers mate

The rain 🌧 has started coming down in Ernest now, time to grab our raincoats and go for a drive.
Good to hear mate now if you are driving, remember, if it’s flooded, forget it.
It's 11C here and am having a hot coffee.
Filling in my tax return trying make sure I get a good enough refund to help pay for more detecting stuff.
Went up the shops and bought some food etc hic!! and found the internet not working--too co-incidental to be anything to but human interference. The Mrs was oblivious to the fact that she had moved the modem whilst looking for a pen????? 30 sec's after i came home twas fixed. Don't you love e'm.
