Gas Guns

For all queries regarding gas guns (GBB's).

  1. I'm trying to make my 5.1 look more tactical and less like a race gun. So I am waiting for retailers to get new stock of the Guarder tactical grip kit. But I also wondered: will the shorter beaver tail grip safety on the 4.3 fit the 5.1?

  2. Hi guys and girls. I'll try an keep this brief. This coming Saturday (13th Feb) is going to be my birthday. It's not a standard age though. It's a very big, significant one and it's not joyous for me. (Born in 1981) Because of this, I want to put together a sidearm that means something very personal to me. A Sig Sauer P226. I own a real steel SIG SP2022 chambered in 9mm. I wasn't able to receive a P226 at the time but I was able to request and purchase my 2022. What I'm looking to do is take one of Guarders' P226 metal frame and slide pairs and then use a TM P226 as a donor. My question is, given I will need a full P226 for …

  4. Hi everyone....am new to the forum so hoping for your help. I have a number of KWA Kriss Vectors of varying condition. One mint and barely used, others in tatters. I have access to a 3D scanner (0.001" tolerance) plus 3D milling machine. I am currently talking to the necessary parties to identify whether they can allow me to have access to the original 3D CAD artefacts or whether I'll need to scan myself. This is an ongoing project to try and rebuild those parts that fail/wear the most. All will be made from either aircraft aluminium or steel. I would appreciate if members could let me know there most common failure items or items that…

  5. My TM Mk23 is being very finicky with hop. I will set the hop and it will lift .48s fine. 30 minutes later I'll test fire and the hop is non existent (I need to loosen off the screws as it is over hopping to the point it doesn't hop) Parts list. Twin screw hadron TDC Hadron H Arm Plate Maple Leaf Autobot 50 degree Maple Leaf CJ 133mm Inner barrel Normal green gas. Someone on the forums suggested I file down the tab on the inside of the hop unit for the barrel to sit right, however my barrel has the correct cuts. Someone else also suggested using a 60 degree ML rubber, but I am unsure of that as I haven't heard thi…

    Recently put a Guarder Tanio Koba tactical grip on my TM 5.1. If you do this I advise you to ditch the hammer spring that comes with the Guarder and use the TM one. The former is much too strong and will stop the slide from going back fully and locking after the last bb has been fired. I have encountered one other problem with mine. It fits, looks good and cycles fine. However if I put a tiny bit more pressure on the trigger without pressing down on the backstrap safety it will still fire. This is a serious safety issue. I am assuming it has to do with the leaf spring, and hoping that it can be cured by bending said spring slightly. …

    Quick one for the owners....from what I can tell hop adjustment is done by pushing the trigger forwards to reveal a dial. Is it best to do it with the bolt locked back or in default position?

    I am trying to remove glock front sight(DEFOOR black serrated from AMERIGLO) so that I can install a FO sight for my old eyes. I applied blue loctite when I installed it a few years ago. I cannot get the front sight screw to budge. Prefer to save the front sight so looking for any words of wisdom before I break the front sight. Or, I may just paint the Defoor serrated black front sight with orange nail polish but that seems...heretic?

    Hi there sorry if this is posted in the wrong place, I'm looking for a replacement gas stock for my shotgun and can't seem to find any OEM ones for my gun, it's pretty much a M870 and I was wondering would any stock of the same style be compatible? Thank you

    I've looked around and never really got any definitive answer to the question of H-plate or FANG plate. I can see how they're different in their construction, but I have no idea what the mechanical difference or performance impact would be between them. I'm just curious why everyone goes for the H-plate over the FANG plate, myself included; don't fix it if it ain't broken, and the H-plate seems to work. So anyone got the details on what the real applicable difference between these two products is? They both seem to do the same job, so I'm not sure why they're both needed.

    Hi all, I recently picked up a TM Samurai Edge M9 on a whim and have a mag query as I can’t find anywhere with TM’s in stock. I’ve tried the usual Google searches but can’t seem to find anywhere that definitively confirms what, if any, third party magazines are compatible. A few places have stated WE M9/92’s will fit but wanted to see if anyone had any first hand experience with this before I push the button. cheers, Hamster

    The latest M9 and M9A1 pistols have metal inserts behind the grip panels and a metal sleeve over the inner barrel. This makes them weigh more than some all metal replicas. The 1911s also have the grips weighted with metal inserts. Is this done simply to add weight for the sake of realism, or is it meant to strengthen the gun, or protect plastic parts? The TM M9 feels really meaty and the plastic used actually looks like metal. It looks more realistic than say the KJW imo and seems built to last. I understand that only pistols with removable grip panels can get the metal inserts behind the panels. But metal sleeves on inner barrels shoul…

    Hey there so i own a Vorsk 5.1 Hi-Capa split slide, and i was looking to get an armour works HX drum mag and soon (roughly 2-3 months) HPA said drum mag and was wondering when i would need to start upgrading my pistol, either before i get the drum mag or before i get the HPA and if i need to upgrade my pistol what i should get for example i really like the idea of a shortstroking kit and a different spring to make the slide go less further back letting me shoot faster. Any and all help would be much appreciated thankyou, Triston.
