They're types of spring, changing the spring will change the kind of FPS you get from your gun. I wouldn't bother changing it on a Combat machine, they simply don't need it!

 
You'll be needing an 8.4 crane stock style battery for the raider series, the battery comparment is in the stock, its a bit awkward to use but you get used to it.

It is indeed a good choice, anything from the CM range is good for a first timer.

*Edited for grammar.

Does anyone know where I can get some "Thunder Bs"? I can only seem to find them on eBay in America but I don't want to risk them getting stuck at customs

 
Answered this on your status but for other people, Airsoft World have them in for £25, Zeroone sell them for £40 but should price match AW if you ask them.

 
Does anyone know if Kanzen have a homepage and, if so, what is the url? Alternatively, do they make their Synergie Ceramic Bearings in 6mm size and, if so, where can I get the buggers from?

 
who else sells these apart from airsoft world?

like im paying £8 for shipping
If you're thinking of taking that to a skirmish, don't bother. £8 is not a lot as they use TNT couriers fixed rates. I don't think royal mail will take this, but you may be able to change the postage type.

G&G combat machines use the black grey mag colour

They come with a grey one, but you can use any colour you like lol.

 
Right lads, this ones for those of you that are eletrically minded.

Just got my G&G M14 and I'm skirmishing it tomorow, it came wired to large taimya, I've got an adapter than allows me to use mini-taimya attached to it... If I included my plug and play mostfet it won't short the circuit or anything terrible like that will it?

Larger taimya -> G&G large to mini adapter -> King kong plug and play mosfet -> 9.6v 1600 mah battery.

EDIT:

Answered my own question, no it will not, but the gun will not cycle.

It should work fine. If it doesn't then some part of the wiring / connectors is broken.

 
It does one second, but then the next couple of shots there will be a whining noise as if the motor isn't working. I think the amount of connectors means not enough energy is efficiently getting through? I'll wire it to mini-taimya soon and it should be problem solved.

 
How do you put battery in one of these ICS CXP QD4 (there's no peq box) maybe next purchase?

That sounds more serious than dodgy connectors. With such low voltage it really wouldn't work like that. I mean yeah, it is theoretically possible for a bad connection to increase the resistance of the circuit so much that the motor is getting insufficient power from the battery, but in practice all that would happen is the wire/metal of the dodgy bit would get really hot and melt / set fire to the insulation, or it just wouldn't work at all.

How well does it work with just a battery connected to the gun?

As soon as I removed the mosfet it started working again, kind of sh*tting a brick incase I damaged the firing mechanism when re-assembling the gun ( I only field stripped it in the first place). Long story short, I spent two hours field stripping and re-assembling determined I was doing it wrong because the trigger group wasnt completely flush with the stock, apparrently it's supposed to be like that?

 
When I got my SRC SR4. There was no third middle gear on the hop-up. Does that mean I have to move the gear on the right to change the hop-up??

I dunno how the gearbox sits in an M14 mate, never had one or seen one broken down. Did you check youtube for vids of ppl doing it? BTW, did you strip it down so you could solder the extra wire in place and change the trigger contact wire config?

I recently did that on my G36 with a King Kong, but I couldn't get it to work properly. I thought it was because i swapped batteries for a 8.4V NiMh (b/c the LiPo needed charging), then when i swapped back to my 7.4V LiPo the LiPo Alarm function went off and would not for the love of fcuk work right even after trying to reset it. I ended up swapping back to just plug'n'play and it works fine.

I ask b/c i don't understand why you would break it down otherwise...?

Anyway, AK gearboxes and G36 have triggers that aren't quite flush with the lower receiver, the bottom of the gearbox just sits on the bottom of the receiver so there's the thickness of the receiver stopping it being flush.
