The 'What have you just broken' Thread

younger guys who have them...the young rich kids who spray on full auto at 30rps+ from 10 feet away.
The only reason I am a bit hesitant about buying one is that I think I will attract a lot of hate just because I'm younger than someone you would expect to have a HPA gun
 
As a 13 year old I feel your pain. Hate when people get snobby about two toning or just two tone in general.

Actually its son's D-Boys 416 with core 13:1 gears SS 2 teeth on a m120 spring

left the stock 7mm barings in - bad mistake I know now

(should have bushings for higher rof guns and at very very least have a bushing under spur - even with ceramics on dsg's, if any of the 6 will fail it will be under spur I now have found out)

SHS piston stripped - poor weak too light plastic just stripped under 30+rps strain in less than 3k rnds

replaced with a better stronger piston and seemed to holding up well for a while

alas as it approached 20k it just locked/bevel broke up from bearings giving out and excess play in gear alignment

(2/3rds of bevel's 10 teeth to spur gear missing/scattered about box and think pinion took a pounding too as it was in a very worn state)

which brings it up my post fitting in shs 7mm bushings n glue n now a snapped pickup tooth

and me looking at marking up some holes on the all steel rack piston.....

deffo confirms my belief that a rof of 25rps is more than plenty chaps - jeez this mofo has been a massive tech lesson over n over

(still looking around even clever mofo's can have mishaps or bad luck - just on this one it seems never ending)

oh yeah - replace trigger & switch first time coz wasn't happy with D-Boy ones

new cylinder - shs type 1 for 407 tbb

new piston + piston head + cylinder head + nozzle + rewired with thick 16awg

yup all I need now is friggin' D-Boy's shell to crack as that is only thing left from original - oops nope the 395fps spring is still there

yup if gearbox case breaks I'm going back to B500A1 n plinking
Jesus Dboys you would be better off giving him one of your G&Gs.Try the lonex pistons they are far superior to the shs. Their bushings are nice aswell.

 
To answer all of the above posts.

Dont think its cost as my aeg has probably cost me more than most hpa set ups but I dont get snobby about it (unless I am taking the p*ss out of duck).

It comes back to the whole elitist attitude some players have which really gets my back up. A lot of the weekend super soldiers go for them because of the perception that they are better and its their attitude that is giving the rest of hpa users a bad name. I also think a lot of the PTW users have gone over to them and we all know how bad some of them are.

I am not at all bothered if some hoses me down at 35rps fair play to them.

I like the idea of hpa and when some one comes out with a stock that can take small bottles inside so you dont look like your going diving for treasure I might be tempted myself.

 
Got one of the Lonex Ultimate Blue pistons but they are a tad heavy

And Swiss Cheesing don't save that much weight unless you go mega nutz

(I usually manage to lose 1.5gms by just lightening top half of piston

any more sides/underneath you can lose strength for a smidge more weight saving)

SHS bushings are not bad - but like most things you get the odd not so good review

but expected them to need few shims but in fact didn't intrude that much more into box

As for D-Boys, they got some not so great reviews in some models but the 416 Bi-801 ain't a bad one

G&G's - not sure about some of the TopTech 416's so thought I'd rip apart the Bi-801 than buy a WE 416

alas pushing it hasn't helped but just before it gave out it was a great looking and performing gun

(started to think - wow that must be one of the best builds so far - spoke too soon)

only revived this old thread coz of my joyful 24hrs in doing a "quick & simple fix" - jeez what a ball ache

never expected a battle of different guns or levels of toy guns.

c'mon group hug now - yup hug it out now, focus on the positive

nope f*ck it I still got the hump with poxy toy gun mechanics

You really like your TM's don't you :) come on guys lets all buy we pistols and g&g rifles :P
Go ahead its your money your wasting.I am actually not a huge fan of TM aegs just think the TM hk416 is the best hk416 by such a huge margin. I dont own one I have only used one in a couple of games. I personally wouldnt buy one either because the platform doesnt interest me, if I was to go recoil would be scar h in black.

Scar or type 97b next me thinks.

Your obviously too little for this game.Come back when you can shave, let the grown ups play with the toy guns and play soldiers.

Actually I just got where my wifes coming from.

 
The silencer to my bloody mk23 ? it was bent when I bought it but now it's snapped...balls

 
soz - bad luck sir

bummer being chrimbo & not stocked at many places

eagle6 or firesupport ?

 
Got it from Eagle6, looking to get a new hard bucking and a new barrel as the BBkings aren't 6mm, they're something like 6.2mm. They keep jamming up the barrels in both my L86 and SVD. Bugger!
