    Quick Change Spring

    Just do what Borg said if you're thinking about doing something, you'll be surprised what a good seal from a piston/cylinder head can do, or even just a nozzle with the proper o-ring inside.

    Trouble with mk18 marui need help !

    Have you looked to see if your hop unit does actually apply any presure down on the rubber? Is the nub in? Just be careful, don't get yourself blinded.

    Version 3 Trigger (Carriage/Unit)

    There is a spring under the trigger, I had that mounted wrong once and it gave me headaches. I had like a two step ladder shape on the shell underneath, and I placed it on the wrong one. That trigger takes patience to put back correctly :)

    Taiwangun alternatives for 8fields gear?

    Then it must be what you say, but, why else would they reply to other UK customers in there that "the UK market was very big for us and we are doing everything we can to resume shipping"? Surely if they don't give a crap they can just leave those questions unanswered? Something is odd indeed...

    Taiwangun alternatives for 8fields gear?

    Just got a reply from Taiwangun on their ask us session on Reddit, they said UK customs not allowing anything airsoft related in. I guess it's only for private customers. Not even tactical gear...... just dumb.

    Taiwangun alternatives for 8fields gear?

    I know I am digging this thread up, but did anyone order anything from Taiwangun recently without issues? They say trouble free delivery to NI but my England postcode tells me to order from Patrolbase....... Wtf are they doing with the customs post brexit? It's just airsoft stuff.

    Broke the last tooth of the sector gear.

    I took it out, looks like a very clean break at the base, exactly like short stroking. Only reason I asked is because people usually grind the first tooth not the last one, and I do not want to replace the gears now. Barrel is 380mm and everything looks fine. A 140 spring would be advisable I...

    Broke the last tooth of the sector gear.

    Hello gentlemen, I was being lazy when I opened my ICX CXP 275 gearbox, and instead of taking both pins out and split the gearbox, I decided to be fancy and just split it with the pin at the front of the receiver on it. Sector gear disagreed with me and said: I will drop my last tooth you...

    2 trigger pulls to fire one round?

    Sounds like something needs a lot of work to turn those gears, either battery or it needs maintenance?

    Ak12 Low Joules

    Just in case someone stumbles upon this thread looking for answers: I had replaced the crap stock motor with a SHS high torque one bought from ak2m4 and the difference is clear. Trigger is more responsive, and my rps increased to 15.4 (from 12) with the 7.4V battery. The stock gears are...

    Ak12 Low Joules

    Nice gearbox inside this Arcturus, radiused, reinforced and QD spring. I had to cut more than a coil from my M100 spring, heat up the end, straighten them smooth it out. Cycling between 1.14-15-16J now. RPS sucks though, 12, thinking maybe change the motor or put in some 16:1 gears, apparently...

    Ak12 Low Joules

    What is the best way to go about this guys? Change the spring to some M90 or change the cylinder ? Are there really any pro's and cons to anything or I can do whatever I want? Thanks

    Ak12 Low Joules
