Make Airsoft Great Again

I'll be that guy again, and ask: if you feel strongly that UKAPU isn't doing what you want, what's stopping you from volunteering to join it, and changing that?

Another H&K recently added into the mix

Hepatitis... i mean Hephaestus custom build.

Well, just cos I'm not supposed to do any exercise while my knee(s) get sorted, doesn't mean I can't exercise my digits and purchase some airsoft kit, does it? So I've snaffled a couple of good things from the Action Hobbies boneyard... a large hard case for the princely sum of £12 (it's a bit tired and shabby, but it'll still do the job), and something I've wanted for a while.... an SLR! Well, a FAL. Well, a FAL carbine. But it's still a thing of beauty all the same 😍 A JG 3000 SA/LK 58 with 4 (count 'em) hi-cap mags. And it's been upgraded... a high rate-of-fire compared to my other JG guns, even on a 7.4v. It's allegedly got a Gate Aster hidden inside. But.. yeah, it's a boneyard gun - so it's not perfect - 2 of the hi-cap mags seem a bit buggered so they'll be conjoined into a single working (hopefully), and more importantly the single shot mode is a bit iffy. It's usually fine, but every now and again it won't fully cycle. Still shoots on the next trigger pull. Maybe the Aster wasn't quite set up properly? I'll set up a new thread for tech advice on that. In the meantime I just love the heft of this (metal receiver), and the look of it of course

Third times the charm?

Welcome to the forum Steve, PLEASE take the time to read the rules & acquaint yourself with the various thread categories. Then move this obvious sales thread in to the classifieds, & delete the other threads your clogging the wrong categories with. Thanks🤨

Picked up a Lite Sport the other week for my lad so he could try bolt action gaming without having to lend him one of my (expensive) rifles. I built it up with a 100N spring (a 120N for 2.3J is included too) and other than dropping a suppressor on the end of it, it's stock on 0.40g ammo. He's left eye dominant but right handed so can't use a glass scope. We popped on a basic red dot, zeroed it in and then took it to the site for a game. It was phenomenal fun - just under 2J with the 100N spring but absolutely laser like up to about 60m which is perfect for the red dot. With it being ridiculously light he was able to stay really mobile - proper shoot and scoot stuff. He caused utter carnage on the flanks. For less than 200 quid I can't imagine a better, more practical airsoft rifle full stop, it really is that good. These will sell well - I think the VSR platform is done...

Just a rather nicely made chest rig off Aliexpress - in my favourite Tigerstripe! Good to see more things these days available in it.

Sellers can ask for whatever they want, I'll prob never offer their price but some like to negotiate & some don't. All depends if they really want or need to sell the item. To be fair tho... some are dreamers.

Much appreciated! From what I’ve seen/experienced the mag catch on the WE stuff does tend to wear really fast

Got some bits for my Scar-H on it's way, if I order some other bits I'll give you shout (I'm old & might forget tho). Just had a look at the spares & there's not much for the L85... magazine catch happens to be one listed, might be a common issue????

Focus... Focussssssss... L85 issue first.

My bad, thanks

If only there was a part of the forum where you could list replicas and other items that you have for sale... I think it started with a c and ended with lassifieds... 🤔

It never even crossed my mind to be honest - Hopefully this'll solve my issues. Definitely a fun learning experience though!

Nice! I reckon the vent in your current one is too far forward so it'll limit the max FPS you're going to achieve. Worth a try at least!

/ thanks, and what bb weight and gas do you use? i bought GEOFFS 0.46 grey and use NUPROL 3.0 Extreme Power

I found a solid one in a parts box I can experiment with, see if it improves along with the new compression parts

Yep, I'd look at changing that to either one with just a notch at the very back or one without a vent at all. Like this https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/cylinders/xt-cylinder-anti-heat-5-6 or https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/cylinders/zci-stainless-steel-cylinder-tip or https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/cylinders/xt-cylinder-anti-heat-closed

Why do scuba divers always fall backwards into the water? If they fell forwards they would still be in the boat.

This is a great help, thank you. I'm going to look around for a sling plate that is a more accurate fit, hopefully I can find one.

If anything the lips on the ML rubber are longer than the OEM one. I highly doubt the overall shorter length is causing a leak though.

There's plenty of "compatible" parts online, the main issue you'll have is that all the sling plates you'll find are aimed at a more standard style of upper receiver instead of the blocky design of your Specna. Other than that, literally any AEG buffer tube should fit and then the world is your oyster for stocks. Note that PTS is a brand, not a type of stock. Pictures would help here.

https://prefired.co.uk/ads/vorsk-hi-cappa-5-1-mag-and-holster-and-a-green-gas-container-only-used-twice/ "ONLY USED TWICE" Apparently the holster and green gas bottle push up the value to just £10 shy of retail for the base Vorsk pistol. With the leaking mag, it might be an easy fix but don't surprise yourself if it or the pistol Amber Heards itself by the winter.

Hi, thank you for your reply, it is really helpful, just have a few more question about his SCAR if you can recall, what degree did he use and what is the barrel length? or from your opinion what works better

There's 2 typos of peoples in this world those who always noticing spelling & grammatical errands, & them who doesn't.

Nothing fancy, just an AliExpress clone of the Haley mp2 triple insert. Holds metal mags adequately without making it Excalibur-like impossible to extract. Also makes it less difficult to reinsert mags compared to the spiritus style elastic sandwich.

You should put the price up; that is the incredibly rare left handed version.

But the paint job is a work of art. Takes skill to make it look that realistic.

Never seen a game, only shot in my Nans friends aunt's cousins uncles brothers back garden. Shoots like a laser will easily outrange teh bestest snipers! It's fully upgraded with every part £700 buyer pays fees, postage and for the box it comes in!

Can't blame a buyer for wanting a good deal, especially when you consider they're taking all the risks, lack of warranty etc. But the dreamers wanting rrp, OR SOMETIMES MORE, for a worn gat that they'll swear has only been plinked in the garden, 🤣 yeah right. They're just greedy cnuts, or at least they would be if anyone was stupid enough to fall for their sales pitch of "honest blud, never skirmished, only plinked in back garden, but it's a laser, easily hitting 150 metres" (in his back garden🤔)

it's ok M8, I wasn't there

Welcome, Great first post, can we expect much of the same in the future ?🤣

This will be the first rifle I have bought since the Ares RDB on first release. (Maybe 2 and a half years ago?) As you may know, I went from having 36 rifles and pistols, now down to just 5 rifles and 3 pistols (With one of those rifles and one pistols for sale) in preparation for a potential move to Spain. But a chance to get a brand new one of these, which has been a rifle that eluded me for a long time. Now I finally have one! LCT AKMSU. It's teh sxe. I know it's very marmite, but I have always loved the Glory Hole Foregrip and the underfolder look. Gearbox is shimmed nicely from the factory. It's one of the more recent LCT Quick Change spring ones. Changed over motor to XT Neo High torque. Slightly louder than the stock motor but still pretty damn quiet. Front sight post was pissed so hit it with a mallet to get it more in line, hopefully it will stay in that position. Firing at 327fps at the mo. Most I will do with it now is put a steel barrel and new hop rubber in it. If I get this and my others overseas when the time comes, I might have to turn this into an angel build and just stick a tonne of unnecessary and ridiculous upgrades into it. The underfolder has the typical up and down wobble once fully unfolded. But it's not that bad at all. Cant wait to field this!

All sold now!

Ed is out of action at the moment, in hospital

I can appreciate that. I was always a Tanaka lover way back when and regret not buying a PCS bolt version when they were common.

Inflation hit hard all of us.
