THE TM MWS thread

Hey, I’ve been trying to order a  supernub from SixG for a few weeks, but am not getting any responses from the Dave through his website contact form. Does anyone have other contact details for him?

 
Hey guys,

So being locked up and doing alot of plinking I've been getting quite abit of bite' from the trigger guard.

So my question is are mws trigger guards real steel compatable?

Also do we know what parts are real steel compatable, be good to have a list.

Thanks alot guys!!

Hey all! I’ve seen this post once here but it never got answered:

my MWS has issues resetting the trigger?? Trigger reset feels really sluggish, and will even require a slight push forward to completely reset. 
 

I’m looking for any DIY or aftermarket solutions. Maybe even a mod to increase trigger pull strength? 

 
I can’t say if real steel trigger guards fit, but real steal grips will (although you need to use the original MWS bolt to attach them).

I had a problem with the attachment point from the trigger guard digging into my middle finger. I don’t think a different trigger guard would have fixed this as the issue was actually the bracket where the trigger guard attaches with the roll pin. I fixed it by using some ‘Sugru’ to fill the void and hide the sharp bit. It’s a neat job and looks factory.

ill try and take a picture later today.

I have the same issue, seems the previous owner scuffed it and left a burr on there. Will break out the Sugru later and post some pics too....because I have sod all else to do.

 
@Softcore

Angry gun BCM bolt, barrel, mcmr 8 rail and surefire blast warden. Furniture is RS stuff and the scout light setup is all genuine as well.

Did you need a barrel nut adapter? How good does it sit on the barrel nut? Any wobble?

I'm currently contemplating on getting a 13 inch mcmr clone, either AG or C&Ctac, and was wondering if it would fit the stock mws 14.5 inch socom barrel.

I can't tell you if they're compatible but the comfiest by far that I've found are the plastic MAGPUL style ones. Everything else always has a sharp edge to it

You should be fine mate. Mine went straight on. I did IIRC need some barrel shims just to snug it up.

That said now I think about it it's a laylax 8way barrel in there as AG aren't making a BCM 9inch outer.

On monday I'll try and have a play about with the actual Tm barrel.

I fitted a rs BCM gunfighter trigger guard to mine, I had to do a small amount of filling on the trigger guard at the front on top to get the small hex screw hole to line up, also the drift pin that came with it is too large diameter so be nice to your existing mws one to re use.

Make sure you support the "wings" when you tap this through or you risk breaking them off!

 
So on inspection there was not only the sharp edges of the trigger guard wings but also a hefty burr from a knock it had taken.

I cleaned up the burr with some fine wet&dry paper, de-greased the area and then masked it off ready.

I used black Sugru to fill the gap and blend into the trigger guard wings and also around the scuffed area.

I let it set over night and removed the tape then used a craft knife to tidy up the front where it had overlapped the tape.

Feels great and you would not notice it unless you turned the gun over and squinted ?

Hey guys, considering I scrapped my old idea of turning my MWS into a Strike Industries fitted M4 I'm going to sell some of the Strike Industries parts to finance my new MWS build, would anyone be interested? It's the SI Strike rail 13,5", the SI forward grip, the SI gasblock(missing the screws at the moment), the SI advanced castlenut set and a rethreading tool for the barrelnut. Preferably only parting with as a set.

I have the ag 8inch mcmr 

Not tried it with a barrel nut adapter but I can say for sure it don’t work with a stock barrel out the box..got mine on and the barrel just plopped strait out. Didn’t go with a barrel nut as I had ordered this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5KU-8-7-Inch-CQB-Airsoft-Outer-Barrel-For-Marui-M4A1-MWS-GBB-14mmCCW-5KU-MWS-2/283301788016?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

needed to back some of the shims in masking tape to get everything to line up tight on the barrel nut but it fits great and feels super sturdy..and looks sexy

Anyone know if these will fit on MWS magazines?

View attachment 55557


Pretty sure these will only work on compatible Pmags (Ace1 or IronAirsoft). The standard TM mags don't have the removable base plates that these are used to replace. Think JKAirsoft and a few other HK retailers have the Ace1 Pmags back in stock.

Also, if anyone is considering getting a BCM clone rail I would HIGHLY recommend getting a set of the real-steal fixing/cross bolts to secure it. From personal experience the ones that come with both the Dytak and AngryGun rails are pretty cheap and, if not tightened correctly, can cause a small amount of very annoying wobble.
