The guns themselves are pretty good to be honest but the only viable scenario i've used them in is CQB sites. I used to use one at my CQB site and on 3 shot mode, it never had an issue sailing the BBs across the 35m-ish length of the site. Personally, I had the GE 8878 and the adjustable stock made it very comfortable to use. The shells are fine to use but a lot of people opt for the adapter that allows use of a M4 magazine instead but, IIRC, you had to remove the loading door to make it fit. If you're going to use one at a CQB site, getting a tracer is a great idea. 5KU makes a tracer that fits over the end of the barrel and is secured by three grub screws.

They only really bother with licenses for guns tbh. Where manufacturers have accessories they replicate those, but they don't really seem to go in for repros of tactical accessories. Based on the Armourer's Bench video it looks like the L403 is used a lot with Magpul SLK stocks. They probably just don't have a repro license for that and slapped the basic not-B5 stock they use on their AEGs/GBBs.

He should but trying to get him to finish a project is like pulling teeth. Maybe I'll inherit it since he doesnt play anymore and actually finish it one of these days lol

Do they have licenses from Reptilia and B5 Systems? (No clue on that myself) They obviously have their sister companies for the added metaphorical/legal 'distance' for various other releases, not sure that's what's happening with this one. Feels more like they just went off early press release pics for the grip and I don't get the stock choice. Not that it matters because anyone who's trying to copy a setup will slide the knock-off Bravo right off and most likely slap on whatever else they saw in a military pic (which is basically always a CTR).

How should I move on multiple Boxes of used Rif's and Parts?

Well if you want to dig through EVERY box to find me a trigger sear for an S&T 1903A3 feel free😁 I look forward to adding some of your bit boxes to my bits box. -

MSSNAFU replied to MSSNAFU's topic in General Help
Thanks both. I still Pew a bit using a golf cart type mobility scooter, but its not exactly stealthy! 🙃 but even with that I'm heading to ~90% chairsofter now. The pics above were just to give a rough idea of the scale of the problem - most of the boxes are ~60cm x 40cm, a few smaller and one much larger. Couldn't get them all in one shot hence the composite pic. I will need to spread out the contents of each one for actual selling type pics, plus the rule 5 bit of paper of course! 😁 I really don't want to have to fuss about with many individual bits, ~14 boxes plus about a dozen RIF's in various states to pack and post will be more than enough of a hassle for me to cope with as it is 😶. I'm not looking to get anyway near the true value out of this either (though contributing to my latest 'I shouldn't...' would be nice 😁), its more about moving the stuff on to people who can use it or even sell it on for themselves, and getting it out of my way. -
A quote that's survived the 2000s Thank you for the update. It's much appreciated. Glad it isn't my end playing up. Hope you guys get to the bottom of it with ease.

Hey all, looking to tart my arp9 with some new furniture, its the gold and black one and im on the hunt for a suppressor/tracer that looks decent on it (my brass Bifrost just doesn't seem to go imo) Does anyone have any cool ideas about what may look good, like a mini honey badger perhaps? open to all ideas. Could also be looking for a new optic and light for it to, so happy to take all recommendations, feel free to show off your pimped up arp9s

Hi everyone, just after a little help if possible? I have this old L85 that I was given about 8 years ago because it was broken, it’s been used as a prop in my Ex Army Land Rover since. Anyway, curiosity has got the better of me and I thought I’d have a go at fixing it. turns out someone had put the wrong screw in the side, which went straight through the micro switch which stopped it firing. I have replaced the switch, and after a fair bit of fiddling, got the gearbox all back together, it cycles on rapid and auto as it should (I think). But I’m not sure if it’s over running as it seems to stop with the gear engaged in the plunger? I’ve tried to add a slo-mo video of the cycle to show what I mean, I’d just like to know if this seems normal? The next problem is that BB’s don’t seem to be getting out the mag up into the Hopup, if I hold the unit upside down, drop a couple of BBs in then it stick my finger over the hole, it seems to cycle and fire the BBs at a reasonable rate, I’m fairly sure it the correct mag for it, it fits well, and the BB’s are released once it’s inserted, but it’s almost like the spring isn’t pushing them up enough? Thanks for taking the time to look. cheers Tom IMG_0091.mov

Yep, I thought it was just me as I'm new here.

I very nearly made an offer on it too.

At least when I've seen similar camo stuff on the field, it tends to be very plasticky and weirdly sticks out more. Honestly scrim netting and some jjute gets you most of the way. Just gotta break up the outline.

VFC tends to do either licensed releases, or unlicensed. When they do licensed releases, like an official KAC L403A1 replica, they tend to make sure everything is above board. They get the rights to MLOK via KAC, for example, as they're reproducing KAC's design that in turn includes Magpul's MLOK IP. When VFC wants to do something completely unlicensed, they go to one of their shell companies, like Maruyama, APFG, or Star Arms. That way they can do B&T or Sig products without incurring the relevant costs or design oversight. For example, VFC P320s via Stark Arms or Parabellum run much better overall than the officially licensed Sigair P320s because Sig demanded they be designed for CO2 first and foremost as military/law enforcement training aids and Airsoft toys distant second. Generally KAC is not gunna want its officially licensed replica to have stolen IP from other companies, so you tend to get basic A2 grips and the like on them. Overall it tends to be pretty all-or-nothing in terms of replicas. That's before you get into companies that just hold licenses and outsource to companies like VFC, such as Umarex or Cybergun.

2 elastic bands and a strip of scrim scarf or hessian works for me

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
