  2. Gas bolt actions and DMRs are pretty much all I use and I think they're fantastic, but I can't recommend them as a first platform as they're finicky and require a lot of tweaking. You will not get the same consistency as a well set up spring or HPA setup (which really ruffles some peoples feathers for some reason), though you can get them consistent enough and the accuracy is just as good. However, every time you use them, you have to spend a bit of time dialling the power in as they're temperature dependent. Also, you can't chase the power limit (which again, really ruffles some peoples feathers) because if you chrono at 2.3J in the morning, you'll be pushing 2.6J by lunch on a warm day. All that said, if you really want a gas bolt action, the Tanaka m700 platform is the best. Pre-ban Tanaka rifles are the best, as it's pretty easy to adjust the power on them, but the clone KJW rifles are just as good, just a bit of a pain to adjust the power by comparison. They definitely need upgrades, regardless of which model you get though. Generally need to swap out the hop unit as the Tanaka unit is an ancient design and while the KJW unit takes VSR rubbers, it's a crap hop unit. Barrel, hop rubber and nub also need swapping out, and on some models you need to think about outer barrel as well, because the standard one houses a 630mm inner which is way too much and joule creeps uncontrollably. You also need to swap out the nozzle as they're way too short on the Tanaka rifles and a good 4mm(ish) short on the KJW, but no airsoft manufacturers make them, so you need to get them custom machined. For DMRs there are a lot more options that will do the job. I built mine on a TM MWS platform as a mk12 mod1 and it slaps, but I know people who have used various VFC rifles to build DMRs to great success, like the m110 or G28, but I can't tell you about those as I have no experience. A lot of work getting the rifles shooting well, and it's still not quite as good as a well-tuned tac41 or VSR as the power fluctuations will be higher due to how gas works and there's nothing you can do about that. However, they are more than accurate enough, and the power fluctuations aren't that awful, just some people get their knickers in a twist if their bolt action rifles aren't doing 3fps consistency. I have 3 VSRs (2x spring, 1x HPA), an SRS and an MTW, all pretty obsessively tuned, yet I still use my m700s, kar98s and my MWSs over them all.
  3. honestly for £53 buy that one
  4. how would they know if they have a hot gun if no one Chronos .... not chrono anyone is lazy and opens up the site to massive safety risk and consequences ..... your example is a classic of bad practice. but you can tell when people like that lie because of the chrono reading
  5. How it looked when it arrived & how it looks now... My version of a Colt 9mm SMG Not a lot of modifications required TBH, birdcage muzzle device to replace the XM177 one, barrel cut down & tidied up, 9mm mag insert with paddle release cut down, 3D gas deflector from twistedfate & the ejector cover cut down. Everything else is stock OTB.

  10. This thing? Also there's a 3D printing thread HERE. If you can find the 3D print file (if it exists), you can ask if one of the people on there would print it for you.
  11. Hi guys, Anyone able to recommend any reputable providers for 3d printed external parts for aegs? I really want the muzzle device from Neil Blomkamps Elysium for one of my AKs but being skint requires me to choose between Airsoft or a 3d printer if my own. Thanks for any help in advance.
  12. Which isn't really that different from the situation at the vast majority of sites. "What weight are you using?" "25s." "Yeah, you're fine." A) Player returns to his table and his bottle of 0.30g BBs. or B) When going out for the first game, Player resets his hop to where it should be. You don't like the way AP do it, that is fine. In all the times I have been there, I have never heard of anyone complaining about a potentially hot gun.

  14. To be completely honest, I have a number of well set up DMRs, a well set up HPA Sniper (L96), and an assortment of AEGs. The most accurate, long ranged, and consistent of my AEGs (a bone stock Krytac) has almost the same real world performance (range and accuracy) of the DMRs and Sniper. The extra 1J between them doesn't really count for that much in the real world. But - that’s not to say the play style that comes with each category isn't fun, and its nice to mix things up a bit. From the above, it sounds like this is half your aim? Unless you are indicating that you aren't going to be playing with it, but rather just using it in the garden. In which case, i'd venture that a garden that is big enough for you to shoot an airsoft sniper within is also big enough for you to construct a half decent backstop and enjoy the infinitely superior accuracy of an air rifle. But if its is a blend of ultimate performance and aesthetics that you are after with the sniper, and you are after a light bolt pull (with the gas system you specify) - maybe consider building a half decent rifle up from a cheap VSR (Cyma are often used as bases) or an L96 (e.g. a Well MB01) - throw in a load of parts (the building is half the fun), and consider one of the these parts being an HPA drop in kit - e.g. the Mancraft SDIK.
  15. I don't think there's much for new gas snipers, though you can make VFC or GHK ARs into a bolt action with the Maple Leaf ARBA. Runs really well, surprisingly. For gas DMRs there's many more options. Basically any 7.62 rifle is pretty decent, some may need more hop up shimming than others to be excellent though.

    For sale is a used Umarex MP7 GBB bought new in Dec 2021. Includes: - 6 Gas tight magazines - Angry gun suppressor (standard version, not the power up version) It has been used in 1 skirmish day (no more than 200 rounds shot), but as I prefer to use M4s, it hardly gets use and sits in a bag. Everything has been recently tested: – all mags are gas tight, – gun performs like it did when new with no issues at all – no issues with bolt lock in semi or full auto – hop up works well – well lubricated with lithium grease for metal-metal parts and silicone oil for plastic parts – externally and internally in very good condition – always shot in shouldered position with stock deployed (mainly for comfort, but also to prevent any damage/cracking to the receiver as this is the main cause for that issue) – always used with green gas/propane, never higher pressure gas

  20. Sorry I wrote that quickly. I'm looking for a new sniper or dmr rifle. Just wondering what's everyone's views on what's out there? Budget is pretty high, what I'm really looking for is a gas bolt action rifle with fairly high fps and very good accuracy. I do bench rest shooting and hft shooting along side my love for airsoft lol, just trying to scratch that itch with an airsoft rifle when I'm not up the air rifle range. I do got to a cqb site indoor but the fps I'm looking for wouldn't be allowed.
  21. If the mags don't fit, it doesn't make much sense to sell them with the gun. You'd probably have better luck splitting and selling them individually.

    As per title, after a metal bodied m249, ideally the g&p ranger variant, but open to others. no interest in HPA

  23. I think the issue here is the bolt is obviously out of spec (or not designed to work with the regular TM receiver…which sounds like a get-out clause!) I would look where the bolt is catching and file off the bolt part, no point trying to alter the receiver or spend ££££ on an aftermarket one only to find out the same thing happens! Worth cleaning out all the chips and dust, won’t do any favours if that gets in the workings
  24. Ordered 3 of the GM Pmags for the MWS - two of the three are pissing gas out the outlet valves and the casing almost as fast as I can fill them!

     

    The one that does work is nice and consistent, shame the other two are lemons! See what the retailer says…
