I ran mine in anger today and it worked flawlessly. Only issue is 1 of the DE mags has developed a leak. range was about 45 meters but not the best accuracy due to the short inner barrel. This wasn't really an issue as it was a CQB site so ranges tended to be 2 to 35 meters. Temperature was about 15C today and I was getting at least 1 full mag without running out of gas on the DE, TM and GM mags. Overall, very impressed with this GBB. If a N4 isn't your preferred M4 style then keep you eyes out for different M4 models coming from DE as they tend to push out other variants of successful rifles (DE90X series for instance and if DE are reading this then a KS-1 or a 416 would be nice).

well that esculated quickly.... All the mags I have (DE, GM and TM) all work fine however the gas routers on the DE seem stiffer than the GM router. Might try some GM gas routers in the DE mag to try to make them better. Only internal mod is a Flamingo hop rubber in both. I've got a RA Tech NPAS here which I might pair with a longer inner barrel to try to increase accuracy at range but keep the Joules down.

make sure the selector plate and the gear teeth on the other side of the gearbox are meshing up correctly. you might have lost a tooth from the selector plate.

I alway regret not picking one of these up when they first became available and at the current price I probably really should have bought one! https://www.zerooneairsoft.com/products/Exclusive-Collectable-Tokyo-Marui-AEG-Limited-Edition-25-GOLGO13-M16A2-CUSTOM-in-Original-Wrapping-Black

Cheers for the link. some good photos. I managed to zoom in a bit more and it looks to be 306S 1913. It looks to me like the battery was plugged in backwards and it fired the board. I've got the broken diode, a chip on the other side is fried so badly I can't see any markings, plus the 3 mosfets are dead and it got so hot it moved their position and delaminated the board. basically it's goosed. Just need to find a manual now to get the part number for the M system ECU and then start talking to some Japanese contacts to see if they are available. Thankfully it's not my AEG

Internet team assemble... So I've got a broken NGRS MP5 here and it's blown a component which looks like a diode and I'm struggling to identify the numbers. If someone has better eyesight than me or has a MP5 board lying on their bench can you confirm the markings on the diode. So far I've got 30aS 1913 or 1915 30eS 1913 or 1915 306S 1913 or 1915 308S 1913 or 1915 30 something else S 1913 or 1915

looks like orange mags are on there way. https://impulse101.jp/en/gbb-rifle-magazines/tokyo-marui-akm-akx-gbbr-bakelite-realskin-35rds-spare-gas-magazine-5809 Got to love TM's attention to detail including the proof house stamps and the colour/streaking looks spot on.

What issues are you seeing with the DE mags? I've got 3 here and they all work fine but I've not spent a massive amount of time with them yet. I'm curious if the issues you are seeing are fixable.

I've got one here. Initial impressions are it's a good copy of the MWS. Everything works as it should and the parts that need to be steel are steel. Negatives are it's very dry out the box and needs a good lub. I have a horrible high pitched ping from the recoil spring but I think a bit of lub will sort that out. The other thing to watch out for is the QC. I've found a few loose screws straight out the box so it's worth giving it a once over when you get one to make sure everything is tight. It might even be worthwhile using loctite on anything that is loose out the box. Also worth pointing out with mine that the FPS is very consistant with very little variation between shots which is nice.

43 shot Saiga 12K magazine. Takes a CYMA MP5 midcap (130bb's) inside and uses the other parts of the Saiga mag. I'm not sure if I'll get the full 43 shots per gas fill but I'll find out this weekend.

well...this was meant to be a parts gun. I needed the internals for a project but looking at it I thought it could do with a different grip, stock and flash hider, then I thought maybe some accessories, oh and a bit of paint so now it's not a donor gun.

yes mate, your timing is exellent as I finished making 4 pairs last night. PM me if you want a pair.

I have a simliar tale, didn't want to spend UK prices so about a week ago I got one from WGC for 363 quid shipped. When it turns up I'm expecting customs charges and if i'd only waited a week I could have picked it up from Bespoke for 350.

I used the smoke silencer in anger today and had a blast. I really need to sort out a tracer as well as at one point I was in a dark corridor in a prison and firing semi with no idea if my BB's were hitting the target because of all the smoke and flash (this was a whole lot of fun and no I wasn't blind firing, I'd put the red dot on the target and fires a couple of BB's but fook knows if my BB's went on target as I couldn't see a thing because of the smoke and flash effect). Oh and I seem to have ended up with a Spectna Arms Mk18 with the Gate mosfet fitted.

not for everyone but if someone is interested in a GBLS then you can pick one up for less than $1000 (about 770 quid minus shipping and import fees) from JKArmy. This is about $500 less than the normal price https://shop.jkarmy.com/gb001480307.html

Pro's: it looks as cool as fuck with a few shots in semi there's a nice cloud forming at the muzzle but doesn't stink of cordite the amber light hitting the cloud gives a good flash effect it has 3 settings for volume and on the 3rd setting it pumps out quite a bit of smoke Con's: it has no practical purpose, a bit like an airsoft gun it doesn't have an on/off switch, you need to disconnect the battery it will run out of liquid, even with the 2 supplied bottles with it so a source of liquid will need to be found (mind you 1/16 scale RC tanks use the same liquid for the tank exhaust so shouldn't be hard to find). It doesn't have a tracer built in which is a shame. on that last point I'm going to fit the internals and a spitfire tracer into a long silencer to make it even cooler, just as soon as I can find the blooming thing. Even with a broken bone in my wrist at the moment, I'm going to fit it to my MK46 recoil on Sunday for shits & giggles.

it's called a smoke wolf silencer and I bought it from top boost toys but I won't recommend them. I can't find it anywhere else but maybe you will. it looks like boost have a few other sites with boost in the name so be cautious. PXL_20230901_190130070_exported_stabilized_1693596207776.mp4

well...you can't beat a good airsoft gimmick. Got to say this is more fun than it should be.

Glad the glasses are working out for you. I just had to order another 20 fans as I can't make them fast enough at the moment.

it should look like this:

No it probably won't help. It would need to travel to the stomach and then take time to break down in same doses as it enters the bloodstream. Chewing an asprin is much better as you break it down quicker and likely to have more effect on the condition.

the pin looks like 3 possible things, the pin from the G36 mag release, the rear lower receiver on a glock or the lower receiver gearbox pin from an M4
