  1. Bought a fresh roll of PTFE today just in case. Faceless store is shut until after Xmas but FOW is on my list as well as a pdi barrel and rhop patch.
  2. 2hrs on my Mk23 last night. I have a brass screw in each mag and a non sticky trigger to show for it.

      What did you do?

       

      Haven't had that issue yet on my novyboiiii23, but I haven't actually used it that much.

      The follower is really difficult to hold back so filed down the moulded plastic and then popped a small brass screw in each. Also took a bit more off the feed lips as the trigger was a bit sticky. 

      If I hold the mag whilst shooting it jams a bit now but otherwise it's fine.

  3. Amazing day of pew-pew at NPF today, haven't enjoyed airsoft like that for a long time!

      I wish I could say the same.

      My ARP kept misfeeding like crazy and on one occasion I snapped and magdumped a new guy who thought it was cool to not call his hits.

      I did get some ridiculous long range kills with the mk23 though.

      Mk23 is the perfect all rounder!

      Non-hit takers just need a couple more rounds than normal, nothing wrong with making sure with half a mag lol

    3. Skara

      He wasn't happy because half a drum mag is still 800 bbs :P

       

      also yeah, mk23 is love.

      I'm thinking of getting a second one and build a carbine out of it!

  4. Bag packed for NPF tomorrow! Lets go!!!!!

  5. Mk23 fettling today. Try to get the mags sorted so it can be fielded tomorrow.

  6. Mine arrived a couple of days ago but the Mrs is playing hardball and won't let me have it until Christmas day. Gone for a 20" in OD with some extra's: .338 DTSS Suppressor FAST hop 3 extra mags Couple of Silverback pouches to hold mags M150 spring First thing I do when I get it will be install FAST hop with new rubber and nub and PTFE it on to make double sure I get a good seal and clean the inner barrel out. Then field it from there and see what bits I want to swap or improve. Have a half a bag of 0.48 Geoffs although I have just bought a bag of my preferred 0.43's and have a Swiss Arms 3-9x50 scope to add on. On my "maybe soon" list I've got a prowler or FOW nub (not sure if I should upgrade bucking as well?) and the airbrake piston head with M160 spring.
  7. P&P really makes me cry ?. I am so used to free postage or Prime delivery that I find myself not ordering at times due to postage prices on small parts.

      High shipped prices... I'm hardly surprised.  So much fraud has been going on fueled by the rise of eBay that stores are unwilling to use cheaper / untracked services.  

    3. Steveocee

      Steveocee

      @ak2m4 To be fair you're probably one of the exceptions. Your postage prices are fair and advertised upfront. ?

    4. Skara

      Skara

      That is exactly why I went for the SSX23 instead of building one myself :(

       

      Sourcing all the different parts is a bitch when postage alone is more expensive than the part -.-

  8. Worth trying to shim under the hop arm? I'm not 100% on the shape of them but can you cut anything to go under it to put more force onto the BB? If that doesn't work then it's almost certainly the arm is stressed and needing replacement.
  9. What gas are you using? It's been pretty cold lately, if using 144a or old/rubbish green then it may not be generating enough power to take advantage of the hop.
  10. Who's good for combats for short people? I need 30" inside leg but all the "good" stuff comes in 32".

      It's a flesh..... no. Gone for an SRS as I'm bored of the VSR platform.

    3. Skara

      Skara

      Should have gone for a fleshlight then.

    4. Steveocee

      Steveocee

      The one I have is only a year old with minimal use lol

  12. 500FPS(w/0.2's), 60° Autobot & Geoffs 0.48's are my new cocktail for mega range!

    3. Steveocee

      Steveocee

      Nothing exciting I'm afraid. VSR10

    4. sonofsammo

      sonofsammo

      Any sniper rifle that shoots like that is exciting ? 
       

  13. Trying a new site today. Wish me luck.

  14. Had similar myself, turned out my email went into their spam. Once they realised totally apologetic and nailed my query. Tried logging in to your account and raising a ticket?
  15. Hi Capa 4.3 mags in a 5.1 are the best thing I've ever seen!

    1. Steveocee

      Steveocee

      Looks a much better fit.

  16. I was going to retire the GM after this weekend but managed to lose a mag so have ordered 2 more, guess she's got a few more games to make use of the mags.
  17. Lost a mag this weekend so of course you have to order 2 as replacements ?

    1. Solly4568

      Solly4568

      well what else are you supposed to do? o I know buy a box mag to make up for it ?

  18. Yes! It's pew pew day! Have a good one people ?

  19. Long shot! In the BFG thread you said you'd serviced your TRMR. Do you have a link to a guide? I want to do my TRMR but can't find anything other than JD's website selling them.

      There was a thread on it but seems the guys video has been deleted. Ask the guy on there to sort the video out as that's what I followed.

      Just replied to the thread asking for the guy to redo the video for you mate :)

  20. Last day of work (at this employer). Oh yeah!

  21. ping -i 10 -c 10800 8.8.8.8

    Yep that's my entertainment for the day ?

  22. Birthday! G18C ? & a pair of Sawflys. Hitting Phoenix tomorrow.

      Happy birthday mate?

  23. I don't understand peoples total delusion that they can make money on stuff they paid full retail for. I've sold stuff, I sold it because I knowingly sold it cheap, I wanted it to sell, I'm fine with that. The internet gives a pedestal to the unworthy.
  24. Placed an order for a new trigger unit, piston, guide and spring(s) from AirsoftPro.cz. Only needed a 90deg trigger but seeing as it's the same price from them for a "full set" compared to UK pricing for just a trigger I'd rather have a few spares. Baby was doing so well this weekend until she ate herself as well.
  25. Always a good day when you start it with a large order from AirsoftPro.cz
