Thanks Ross, seen the email. Cheers!

Hi does anyone have any experience of 'The Cage' airsoft tech? Submitted a website ticket for a serious internal build, took about a week to get a response to that (and it was a holding response at best), which asked if i still wanted assistance, responded yes and chased a few more times. At this point i'm wondering if its worth persevering? Or AITA? Has anyone used them? Good or bad service? Cheers! ?

Love Strike Industries, if you ever think of selling......

Hey all, does anyone know if the outer barrel assembly between the VFC HK 416 D (v2) and A5 AEGs are interchangeable, basically where the outer barrel meets the upper receiver? They look very similar on the parts diagrams, i've messaged VFC a while back and still no response! Essentially, i'm turning my 10.5 inch A5 into a 14.5 inch, using the extended Geissele rail, you can buy the 14.5 inch extended outer barrel and gas garts for the 416 D, so want to use those (they have some nice HK trades on them) and a similar extension piece doesn't exist for the A5 variant as far as i can tell to turn it into a 14.5. Thanks for any insight.

Random question, does anyone have any experience of putting a mock suppressor inside a Geissele SMR rail on the 416? If so pics and what suppressor did you use? Cheers in advance!

Yup, the EXA is UMAREX spec (i have one) and the outer barrel is different, unfortunately unlikely to be compatible. ?

Random question mate, what inner barrel length are you running on the left (HK416) RIF? I'm about to extend my own but hadn't worked out the inner yet!

No mate, well and truly sold!

Does anyone know the retaining screw sizes for the TM Glock 17 Gen 3 front trigger chassis and rear hammer chassis? Cheers.

The idea is mine, the execution I can take no credit for. I've been working with Seb at double tap designs, that man is a 3D design genius! Essentially, I run the APS CO2 mags in Glock builds, the ones with the hex screw brass bottom caps. I didn't like the design and lack of aftermarket mag bases on the original, this changes the mag base to be essentially like a standard TM. The CO2 brass end cap sits in the hole, you slide it on, then screw it in place with a hex wrench through a (smaller) hole in the bottom of the mag base. A new bottom spring guide was needed too... Final design is done, they're off to get printed in MJF by Protolabs.

I kind of swear by WD40 Dry PTFE spray, its awesome stuff for airsoft use, has the benefit of not holding grit and gunking up internals. Worth considering!

I'm not a 1911 aficionado, but could it be light striking? maybe worth taking apart, checking, cleaning and lubing the hammer assembly???

Nice grip ?

I appreciate the skill involved in all your work....... but this hurts my eyes, you just can't unsee some things!!!!!

Nice build - love the BCM and Haley Strategic upper/lower combo!

Lol, me too, before the auction finished, but no action.... well someone has bought a lemon thats *apparently been abused on his .308....

I was looking at this, messaged the bloke to confirm authenticity (he never committed either way and wouldn't send pics of the serial number), studied the photos for a while and concluded fake!!! He sold it for £190 though.....

After reading this post i contacted Max to do some work on my VFC 416 AEG, i have to say that i'm massively impressed with the service i received and i would thoroughly recommend him. Prior to this i'd spoken to a number of different techs, inc. at established stores, no one really seemed too interested in conducting the work I wanted, and advising me on the best outcomes. The conversation with Max was easy, he listened to my ideas and suggested different ways to achieve my goal. We settled on a build and agreed some areas where additional work could/should be conducted once the gear box was opened, particularly i wanted to eliminate some of the known VFC weak points, cylinder, tappet plate etc. Communication throughout the work/build was exceptional, Max provided sound advice that went way above and beyond my limited tech experience. The VFC is my only AEG and was my first RIF a number of years ago, its served me well, but needed some tlc, i wanted a 'bomb proof' gearbox build emphasising trigger response. Key work : - Cleaned & serviced. - Re-shimmed with high speed gears, short stroked. - Gate warfet and wiring inc. modifying the gearbox shell. - Retro arms trigger inc. required adjustments and modifications. - Replaced tappet plate, piston/compression assembly, alu nozzle, spring. - Gearbox radius. - New high torque motor. - AOE correction. I got max to do some other stuff too like re-wiring my batteries to Deans etc. and play around with a ProWin hop and barrel that i couldn't get working. We agreed 6 hour labour, parts were at cost. I appreciate you can go to great lengths with components to get crazy DSG builds etc, but for me this was all about balance, the improvement in performance on the VFC is crazy good, the build feels robust and for my needs its perfect at a good price point. Cheers Max, appreciate all your efforts!

Make/brand: G&P/EMG SAI GRY Any accessories included: Mags, fore grip, iron sights, hard case, original box **Looking for an appraisal please, draft advert below, looking for £475 all in, more pictures will go in ad** Genuinely never skirmished, and essentially a display/collectors piece, although i have put some mags through it in the garage etc. I've included some pictures showing how i've had it set up (not everything included in the sale, please see below).Selling as i'm thinning out my AEG collection a little and as i've just bought my first GBBR M4 and those mags are expensive ;-)....Essentially this is stock internally, but i have completed some external upgrades listed below based on a Strike Industries 'look' :1. Main one is the Real Steel Mission First Tactical 'Battle Link Utility' Stock. This is a milspec stock and there is zero wobble on the buffer tube. It also has a custom foam cheek pad! This stock has an internal compartment accessed via a 'door', I've dremelled out some of the material so that you can insert the battery by opening the door, i.e. you don't need to remove the whole stock to get the battery in the buffer tube. These are quite difficult to source in the UK (I got this one in the US). 2. Strike Industries silver castle nut (i liked this as it matches the forward assist). 3. SAI etched ambi-charging handle. 4. Strike Industries style bolt release (be aware this model isn't designed to have a working bolt release mechanism - for looks only). 5. Ambi mag release.What this package includes :1. SAI GRY with external upgrades described above. 2. Original box. 3. Black hard storage case. 4. MBUS clone flip up front and rear iron sights. 5. BCM type MLOK foregrip. 6. 8x G&G 120rd G&G midcap magazines (essentially new and un-skirmished).I recon total package is worth in the region £600 - £650. Looking for £475 inc. PayPal fees and postage. Please let me know if you have additional questions.Cheers. Pictures:

Velcro is the ultimate mag wobble hack ?

I must admit, I follow this thread to see your amazing work, I love your weathering, just phenomenal!

Haha, yes mate! Only a replica, but, as it's on the mount, there's little recoil.... Hopefully it'll last a bit ?

Finally put the finishing touches to my Agency Arms NOC build, really pleased with it. Not something I'll skirmish with, mostly practical pistol..... Fully custom components.

Wow, yes there is.....

Pre-ordered the new PTS Zev Omen slide..... I'm a sucker for Zev ?
