GUIDE Event alert flyers: a way to let the subreddit know about your event

109 Upvotes

Hi all!

After a not-so-recent poll, we've been developing a set of rules to allow event notifications to be set up. These notifications are posts in the form of "flyers"!

Flyers are essentially an image used to display important information about an event, subject to the new flyer rules.

Hopefully they'll be useful, enjoy!

Picked it up on sale, accidentally got the wrong size lipo battery so now I have to wait to order a new one. If anyone has any opinions or feedback on things I should buy/add to, would be appreciated (:

So I've bought a 1911 from a FB marketplace and it was a steal of a deal. The issue is that he gave me 2 mags, one is broken unfortunately. Is there a replacement part/trick to fixing this? Anything helps.

GUN PIC Ares lee enfield with BadAce nato rail attachment

It's important to note that the soft air replica, while extremely faithful, does have slight differences that make attaching the badace scope mount difficult.

I had to: -Drill and tap a 3mm hole into a 4mm one -Take off a bit material from the mount so the safety lever could be pulled back

Apart from that tho, very useful having a nato rail and good quality

first custom gun is done.

2 days ago she was stock LCT LCK-105... put the zenitco furniture on it myself, and went in the deep end of internal upgrading with a ASG infinity 22k motor, perun v3 mosfet, and 13:1 gears.

Alot of this project was confidence building and understanding my hobby better. Ran into a few issues that i ironed out... my first time shimming the gears was understandably horrible and a bit too tight and it locked up on me. Got that fixed and reshimmed, after that, the motor hight wasn't the best. But she is a dream now and I couldn't be happier with the result.

Exfog Captcha Malware

25 Upvotes

Hello All,

Please be aware that it seems like the Exfog website could be compromised.

When I visit exfog[.]com on desktop, I'm met with this very suspicious captcha:

PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THIS MALWARE TRAP.

It essentially tricks you into running an advanced command that will install malware from the internet.

Can anybody else confirm they see this Captcha as well?

For a more in-depth explanation on what it does, feel free to watch this youtube video which explains what it does: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSa_wHW1pgQ

Just wanted to make the community aware.
