Cheers bud. Wasn't sure if this was steel on the V3 as there's so much conflicting information out there about V2 and V3 differences.

Hey guys. Just got my 416 and love it. Just one thing I've noticed it's a A5 gen3 but for some reason the trigger seems to be alloy not steel. Is this something they changed as everything thing else inside it is steel and the gen 3 upgrades are present.

I was thinking of trying this site as it's in my end of the country will definitely give it a go.

Yea definitely. I bought a Ra tech nozzle for my l85 and it was so bad it smashed up my hop chamber and constantly miss fed. Only Ra tech bits I use are their npas as they do seem decent never had an issue with those.

Ahh gutted man. We all do those little fuck ups. I had on my l85 a crack on the front of the fram so tried a fix of welding it at work but not clicking on it's cheap chineasium metal and just melted it before my eyes soon as the arc touch it, so had to buy a replacement part. Definitely looking forward to getting the 416. Got a good deal with it 6 mags, the rifle and carry bag all for £500 seconds hand rifle but near new never fielded so hopefully got a great rifle there.

I thought that might be the case as it took weeks to arrive when I ordered it. I'll definitely steer clear in the future if that's the case. From your experience what companies these days are good to use for parts as I've been out the game for 8 years and things have changed so much since I played originally, for 1 gbb at the time bar pistols was a big niche and not many companies at it but the ones doing it where great but they are now terrible or fell off the map.

Has anyone used the clutch precision parts? I ask as I'd like to buy some upgrade parts but my first experience with them isn't good. I bought their mp7 base plate and not at all satisfied with it, the precision part of their name doesn't seem to be there, had to file and shape it to get to fit correctly and the holes they mill out for the but stock are way too big and don't hold the stock correctly in my book compared to the OEM plastic one (pictured below for comparison). I wouldn't recommend this part to anyone to replace a broken OEM plate instead just get a replacement plastic one with a steal latch as it'll be so much cheaper that this one. Might be designed in Germany but their production is sourced out to Asia and imagine this is where the lack of precision can stem from. Are all of their upgraded parted of the same quality? if so this is a company I'll be putting in the same category as Ra tech and not buying any more from them.

Hey guys. Just purchased my hk416 and can't wait to get it in my hands. Been a GBBR guy all my Airsoft life and had many different ones my main one being a we l85 that I've owned since 2014 so changing to the vfc M4 platform will be a big change up for me. Got the vfc mp7 gen 2 I plan to run as a side arm along with the 416. Will be keeping the l85 as a back up rifle as keeps with my ex British forces mind set.

Obviously doesn't know the mp7 platform. This one's worse than the we not even full size, just to think the price he's after I got a vfc gen 2 with 6 mags for similar price.

Is it the woods? I bet it's the woods.

I remember back when they did sort of allow it around 12 years ago. Bought my first rif from an Airsoft selling group. Now they are too twitchy because they don't like fire arms full stop.

My Mrs just asked me why am I looking at iq stuff. Getting a piss take with some of these ads

I fully agree with what you say about people controlling their posts to make them look rosy and positive. I do photography as another hobby and the amount of times I post constructive criticism on someone's post who asked for a opinion on their shot then to have my comment deleted because they don't agree with my opinion to help them out, happens way to often especially with the younger generations who think they are the bees knees because their mates say they are. Happens way too often hence why I moved away from Facebook and barely comment anymore on Instagram posts.

The ads on this forum really are annoying me. Keep popping up every page I visit. Minimise it then seconds later a new one pops up.

Welcome to the forum. I'm also Midlands based. Hopefully meet one day at a game.
