  • Urgh, straight from a cold into horrific back pain, this week is not being nice to me. I better damn well recover before sunday....

    converter arrived for the mg42, working perfectly. now i just need to get the rest of it fixed and i'll be back to generating hatred at 1200rpm :P

    urgh, much tired. m4's back on form though, stuck it in 3rnd burst and hope it lasts longer.

    Dunno how you cope running around in this heat? Dreadding next weekend if it's still hitting the high 20's!

    we weren't playing, just messing around, getting hops and sights dialed in

    That will be the majority of my evenings this week methinks.

    well, that's parts on order for the ak/m4, the sig still needs a new outer barrel but i've given it a bit of a cleanup, also fixed the hop on the makarov so now it should be able to hop which should turn it into a little demon of a pocket gun

    They recently renamed the Makarov in DayZ, I was devastated!

    Indeed, its a very under appreciated gun imo, sure the real one is underpowered but it's a masterclass in engineering simplicity.

    The we version is a cracking wee gun, great gas effeciency, kicks like a mule and apart from the lack of nub its got to be the best hop unit design i've seen in a pistol.

    Now i just need to get it a holster and some spare mags....

    anyone know where one could find some nice wooden grips for a we makarov?

    I am afraid to say that there no mainstream airsoft manufacturers who currently make wood grips for the WE Makarov the close you could get is the brown Fakelite  these ones here   https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WE-Brown-Grip-For-WE-Makarov-GBB-Series-WE0557-/281684074973 

    You could try to find surplus wood grips for the Makarov but I do not think there were many (if at all) that actually, real steel pistols manufactured that would have had the wood grips.

    The American gun/surplus stores might have some but most properly will not ship to the UK.

    hmm, food for thought. i have some contacts who might be able to source real steel ones which will possibly need modded to fit.

    will have to see. kick off it's lovely though

    urgh, dreading sunday, it's last chance saloon for this site and i'm expecting the perfect storm of cheaters, speedsofters and inneffective marshals.

    sadly it's the only decent outdoor site left that doesnt require a 6am start to get to.

    escarmouche, tis in ni, i'll maybe write a review depending on how it goes. it's a shame because it's got so much potential if they put a bit of effort into properly marshalling the place, they've got a good thing going but the last 4 sessions it's been the same story of people not taking hits descending into anarchy, and a session shouldn't be something to dread.

    still, hope springs eternal, i'm not the only one who feels this way and we're going to let them know it's one last chance to see some pro-active game control.

    Seems the same as X-site, same old same old. Unfortunate. Hope all goes well

    yeah, i mean the guy that runs it is nice enough, and he's putting the effort into tweaking the game design and trying out new things, as well as physically improving the site.

    but sadly that doesn't mean much if it's infested with cheaters and they aren't doing anything about it.

    just ghillied up the frontend of the m4, although i'm worried it might have angered the gods of reliable gearboxes....

    today went well, turns out m4 had just dropped a motor connection rather than a dead etu, and i've made a beast out of that aksu merely by fitting a delayer chip and removing the recoil

    so, now i have an aksu, high speed build anyone?

    Well this is going to be more my "so you wont take your hits eh?" Gun for when the m4, f2000, m203 and mg42 have failed to provide sufficient persuasion.

    Also because its tiny and light.

    Tis a jg recoil one, but the recoil will be the first thing coming out of it, needs a delayer chip but otherwise it's already a decent wee hose.

    Although considering the potential to half stroke it and trade a little accuracy for a swarm of angry bees

    Didn't even know JG did recoil stuff, is it a TM clone or something?

    dunno, it's a different system to the pneumatic ones g&g use, regardless it's getting removed for the sake of reliability.

    urgh, so it looks like the p90 tappet plate is about 2.5mm too long overall for the f2000, as the nozzle when fully back is sitting too far forward.

    might actually have to cut the nozzle which i'd kind of hoped i'd be able to avoid.....

    well, the f2000's semi auto problem is the cutoff lever is worn, although no idea about the feeding as it looks like the tappet plate is pulling the nozzle back as far as it'll go

    well, the ascu is now working great, but the bolt catch button isn't working so i can't program it to ignore the bolt catch. it's a catch 22.....

    my m4 is now working again! only took rummaging through a box of cutoff levers to find the one singular one that had the correct throw and length for the etu.

    so much for using the included parts and it'll work.....

    well, went out with 1 broken gun, came back with 3.

    no i don't really understand how it happened either.....

    Is there just a pit of broken airsoft guns laying in a field somewhere? 

    Adolf Hamster

    nah it's a mate's tanaka, needed some corrective surgery for it's previous "creative" gunsmithing repairs.

    Well, wee session tomorrow, place your bets now- will the f2000 feed or will i be scrounging a gun?

    Adolf Hamster
    Adolf Hamster
    did not feed, i think the p90 tappet plate is the issue, it's not drawing far enough back, so i guess i'm stuck having to find an actual f2000 one now.....

    buggery. and f2000 parts aren't exactly plentiful here either. might be worth checking places like evike or ebay US and see if theres some cheap shipping

    Adolf Hamster

    yeah, it's a pita, maybe at some point i should just polarstar it.

    my side option would be an extention plate on the sector gear with a longer stroke.
