i dunno, you gotta start somewhere, i'd be a hypocrite if i said i didn't do exactly the same (hell i double whammy'd it by buying a unicorn as a first gun), i've walked that walk of shame with a broken gat many times (even several times in one game) pretty much everything i've learned has come mostly from fucking it up the first time and never letting a good gun sit for long without trying out some new tweak. hell the reason i joined this forum was a madcap "i'm gonna revolutionize airsoft" idea which unsurprisingly went nowhere. hell i still do it, can't stop, it's an obsession. i probably need help...... however, the one bit of advice i wish anyone, including past me, would take on board before starting the roller-coaster that is modding airsoft guns is this: have a good backup before you start. and don't fuck with it

Mate sold me his sr25 last week . Has reaper kit inside . So from first pic how I got it to how I wanted it

I’m surprised you are allowed to use that personally I think its irresponsible to be slinging so much plastic at such a furious rate. Sorry, but that’s just excessive and any site that let you use that against me I wouldn’t play at.

Got this today, really like this patch.

Patrol Base has stock of MWS mags guys! Just ordered some, and thought I'd give a heads up if anyone else needed any? https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/tokyo-marui-m4a1-mws-zet-35rnd-gas-magazine

Certainly nothing like my GR Patrol 😁

@Enid_Puceflange actually looks cool being so modern with old steelies!!

You needn’t worry. It’s been a lockdown boredom build more than anything. The site I play at run most of their games as semi-only anyway!

Agree, for me airsoft is based upon military combat simulation, daft dsg builds have no real world relevance 🙁

To day I am driving the new Defender 😎

And painted the ammo cans.... Tried to preserve as many of the original markings and stickers on the missile case, so a little of the original paint still shows, but its good enough for what i need. And i have left the inside of the ammo can its original brown colour as i will be making a wooden insert to organise my gear, so it will be covered over. And eventually the missile case will be fittef with foam liners to hold my various rifles.... current and future

Hot potatoes!

New upper gearbox for the ics cxp ape. areived yesterday. Guessing my ape was one of the earlier models as the gearbox didn’t have the quick change spring system that’s used on them now. unfortunately The new upper case with an m120 spring. So I decided to swap the springs over. apparently reassembling the old gearbox proved that I know many interesting combinations of swear word.

i always just paste the url directly into the reply and it does it automatically

Just copy and paste the url... Agreed, at 70% of retail this should be around the 300 mark. Likely put a higher ask to expect people to negotiate him down. Still about £30 too much for that though really. Is a tidy looking gun though. I paid £320 all in for one with 3 mags and the same parts, mine also had the cqb bolt installed, seller doesnt mention in this if it has it, it says 340fps so maybe it has but if it doesnt then its likely to be higher, its also a hard to find part and costs £50.

Mine slid on fine with zero play, possibly the finest tollerences I have seen for a while! I added some good quality grease so I have a hope in hell of removing it at some point in the future. You will love the rail covers, if you ordered from Brownells don't expect them to be with you before 2weeks after order, I think Customs / ParcelFarce are a bit busy!

So true, I'm fed up seeing "getting a new/first gun, what upgrades should I do" threads, just use it FFS, as your likely to fook it up trying to throw money at it. Some great budget guns out there, I'd rather buy two variants, instead of buying one & then spending as much again trying to make it something it's not, nor will it ever be lol.

Everything has been changed, except for two of the most important bits...

Just picked up this little WE G26 going to pick up an extended mag and it should be a little cqb beast

MWS is done. Shimmed the trigger box. If anyone finds shimming a V2 gear box just too easy and not enough steps or repeated stripping and rebuilding I can recommend shimming a MWS trigger box 🤪 Some 4mm x 8mm 0.1mm and 6mm x12mm 0.1mm shims for the sear, trigger and hammer pivots. Top tip is don't shim the sears too much as that will stop the trigger resetting...I am still not sure why but there we go. Minimal binding and wind-up on the pull and a snappy reset. Only took 2hrs! Fitted some BCM M-Lok rail covers to the Hao Mk16 rail and happy with the slim but grippy feel. Now to wait for Strikeforce CQB or UCAP Vendetta to re open and give it an outing!

Load outs aren't usually my thing but been getting a western kit together.

Just arrived If you have any questions, fire away

I'm 25, and I drive a 20 year old automatic volvo estate, it's big, comfy, smooth and it feels safe. It fits 4 people and a shit tonne of gear in while still having plenty of room to cruise to airsoft sites. I counteract this with a suzuki Tl1000r, which is the motoring equivalent of trying to ride a hungry shark. Though it's having a major service atm and will be back on the road next year wearing Barry sheene colours.

My bikes sexier than my car so....

Quiet day at work, been fiddling again with my M4 DSG build. Think I’ve found the sweet-spot now and depending on battery charge I’m getting between 40/45rps at 300/310fps. Burst mode makes quite a noise and semi auto is nice and snappy! It’s deliberately the ugliest thing externally, internally I think it’s porn. Retro arms Split V2, Jefftron Leviathan, ASG Infinity motor, 9:1 SHS DSG, SHS Swiss cheese piston with 9 teeth left, Polycarb pistonhead, SHS nozzle and the original Specna Cylinder head, Maxx hop unit with Maple leaf Macaron 50 and Omega Nub. edit- one of my staff eats nothing but pot noodles, the empty pots make great phone stands and caddies to keep screws and bolts in IMG_6925.MOV
