The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Cannonfodder and 4 others reacted to JinxDuh for a topic
After being too impatient to wait to find a specna, I opted for the S&T G36V with the grenade launcher (Because why not?). Changed out the launcher with the mg handguard, put a ZCI dual optic on (After a lot of sanding down, it doesn't fit directly onto the S&T) and can now call the MG36 done.5 points -

So this ๐is the fruit of my labour. I'm going to post a bunch of pics I took during the build and put a parts list together to bore you all with, but today was about getting it onto the range to see what it could do. A couple of weeks ago, as an out-of-the-box M4A1 Carbine, it was hitting out to 60m on .28g BBs and Ultrair, with a good degree of accuracy, which, for me means hitting a Figure 11, roughly centre-mass, at that distance. Made me smile, and smile and smile. Today, testing this iteration was, well, a huge disappointment. Although the range was like-for-like on .28s and green gas, I just could not get any consistency in shots. One would go straight as a die, resulting in a nice metallic 'clink' off the target. The next would fall short, barely half the distance, then another would fuck off into the stratosphere. Adjusting the hop made very little difference to the randomness of the shots. The only internal changes I made were a different Zet plate (which worked brilliantly) an enhanced nozzle return spring and a different hop nub, all by BavTac. I can only assume that, while replacing the hop nub, either the nub or hop rubber is not sitting squarely. Adding weight to this theory is the fact that, with the can on, BBs were shattering before leaving the barrel, or dribbling out like it had a prostate problem. Any other thoughts on root cause before I whip the tools back out? On the plus side, chucking in .3s and .32s, still with regular green gas, when a shot did go straight, it was heading to the 70m target, so I'm hopeful that when I get this sorted, it'll be chucking white plastic death out to decent distances. Oh, and IMHO it looks gorgeous. Yes, it's another URG-I, but it's still a handsome beast. Gas testing will have to wait. I now have 8 variants to try in the name of science...and bored curiosity.3 points

THE TM MWS thread
gavinkempsell and one other reacted to C-Diddy for a topic
My thoughts exactly Wavey. Hoping it is that simple. Can't imagine it's anything else as, mechanically everything else I touched seems to be working fantastically. I won't deny having sex fingers though, that have a tendency to fuck everything they touch, so you never know ๐ On my other MWS I don't remember .32s doing that well, but I think I should give them another chance based on today's trial. What hop/barrel set-up are you using to get those results? And of course, which gas? (The Vorsk cans arrived today so I'm ready to test, once I sort the hop issue)2 points -
"comes in a custom made display case" I cringe when people go on about something being "custom made" in that context as if that makes it worth more money. The custom-made case was made for his tastes and requirements so he paid for the labour and the sentimental value. That doesn't mean it's worth much to Joe Public. I would like to know the thought process or the smack required to mark up the value so much.2 points

GBBR Versions of an SKS and a Sterling2 points -
Thanks for all the responses guys. @Nick G UPS has already sent me the amount owed for import duties ยฃ200+ but I expect this will be higher as they charge ยฃ13 a day by the time it finally gets processed. I think you're right with regards to the address and UKARA not matching potentially being part of the problem. My thinking at the time was if it was sent to my work address (That imports 100s of Airsoft RIFs and parts every month) it would be less of an issue and also with the item being a RIF not left outside at home or at a collection point whilst I was at work, a more responsible decision. I have contacted the courier but as of yet had little help from them, will try again on Monday. @Pseudotectonic Attached is the form I was sent along with a RIF declaration (which was easy enough to fill in). @Asomodai @C-Diddy fingers crossed then otherwise this will have been a very expensive lesson. I did ask the sender to include in the package my home address (image from an invoice from my place of work) alongside my UKARA and image of my Passport but they would have to open it to get that I guess. @Tommikka well hopefully they are just busy and just haven't gotten round to sorting it but I believe as pointed out the UKARA address mismatch is probably the problem. I'm just stressing abit as it was quite an expensive purchase and worried it will get destroyed. Thanks for all your help everyone, hopefully I can get it resolved this week coming.2 points

Re: VFC M249 I guess the full weight version would add raw material cost AND delivery costs that sellers might not fancy. So somewhat-sensible business decision not to go the chonky-boi route?2 points -

Realised I had the parts to make something interesting. For your consideration: an alt-history Olive Drab AR-15 Dissipator build. Imagine the chopped short M16s from the Vietnam-era became standard issue all the way to the A4 variant. Then make it a lovely military-ish green. Recently a real steel Dissipator (that's an AR-15 with a 16 inch barrel and a full rifle-length gas system) was released for sale by Anderson Arms, and this video popped up on my YouTube feed. I really love the full-length-but-shorter look of a Dissipator, and I think sticking on an A2 handguard and a full stock makes it look a lot more military than the Magpul equivalents I had on it previously. What do you think?2 points

UPDATE Unfortunately I won't be offering these for sale for the foreseable future. I just found out that my family are only willing to store them and not post or allow a buyer to collect them. Yes, sad but true. I'm going to try and arrange for a friend to collect them so he can help me sell them online but that won't be for quite a while. I'm living abroad so can't do anything hands-on myself in the UK.1 point

WE XM177 comes with 15 mags(worthยฃ500) pretty much all the mags are brand new and difficult to load! I haven't had the time to use this, preferring the FAL. The gun has stock internals with a restrictor disk fitted to lower its fps and shoots really well. Looking for ยฃ550 posted within mainland UK if you're in the Highlands or Ireland, then a contribution will be needed. Any questions ask awayยฃ550

Same as when guns have "custom" paintjobs. It's not that, if they are done well or by a known name that has a reputation for quality work, that such things aren't of negligible value. It's that as you say, you've got 2 kinds of people who will be looking at the advert: -people who share your taste to whom the custom work may well be worth more money. -people who don't to whom the custom work is at best something that adds no value or at worst (especially the case with paint jobs) an annoyance that will take effort to revert/replace. Needless to say the second group is going to be significantly larger than the first.1 point -

If you're going to stick to collection only, I'd ask a bit more than that, or a bit less. Why? Because the key issue is whether there's a collector nearby who's interested in them as historical pieces. If there is, then they might pay more. And if there isn't, then you're only going to get sweetie-money offers for them anyway. Posting (and splitting) will significantly increase the chance of finding that collector.1 point

TM MWS alternatives - is there anything else worth considering?
Haligonian reacted to Davegolf for a topic
Too expand, the GHK and VFC have a more realistic trigger mechanism if a โtrue replicaโ is what you want. However if you wanted a GBBR to build into any modern (or old) variant AR imitation visually, and to plink with and strip / rebuild then the MWS is the best platform. Because it has massive aftermarket support, has less fiddly parts that are likely to break or get lost.1 point -

Tokyo Marui M870 Wood effect with 8 Shell magazines, G&P heat shield rail, faux magazine tube extender, ASG Evo Iron Sights and plastic RDS (doesn't work unfortunately, but makes it look sick!) In fantastic condition, only seen a few games. A real wrench for me to sell but a number of reasons force me to. The hop has been upgraded by Lizard Airsoft Supplies, and it now YEETS 0.30g bbs! The gun functions great HOWEVER, when the gas tank is removed from the gun, there is a slight leak from the exhaust valve. Having the tank inserted into the gun remedies this problem- it's not ideal, but it does work. If you have any questions, or would like some more photos or videos, please just ask. Cheers, Tom.ยฃ220

Recently lost a LOT of weight, Iโve always been slight but itโs been muscle, the last month has caught me off guard with illness so kits slimmed right down! LV119 with trident weighted plates, 2x Crye SPS pouches for spare mags / misc. Want some banger pouches for the rear. Velocity systems rugby shirt is mega comfy, cut up cryes top for the fun of it. Trousers will be replaced when the weather turns shyt. No belt as currently refining that to be as slimmed down as possible.1 point
