chuck a wee o-ring under the screw holding the hop wheel/slider on?

pretty common problem, i've even used blu tac on pistol hops to keep them in place.

@Adolf Hamster that's what I will tell them to do. Otherwise I may suggest to TDC mod it! 

I have been on the phone to the tech, he'll take it back and look into a direct TDC mod. Takes out all the inherent issues of the MP5 hop unit. 

@ak2m4 Get them to anodise it. A lovely gold finish that you can only see in the bottom of the magwell.

That's doubly disappointing then, as CYMA can churn out perfectly decent stuff.  Maybe just getting to the end of life on those moulds.

Wouldn't it be a laugh (sadly, not for you) if CYMA were fobbing off their bad castings on Dytac. It'd have a certain ruthless logic to it - use the best stuff in your own gear, and put the junk out under someone else's brand.

@Rogerborg and Dytac charge twice the price! 😉

Yeah, DON'T order a SWAT VTG on their website.

Luckily my payment failed because when I emailed for another way to pay I got no answer.

Then I found THIS and THIS

Phew, glad I missed that one

Small as they look, the .209s are quite loud and I wouldn't want to throw anything louder at people.  They're also incredibly cheap, working out to about 10p per throw.

So yeah, I'd highly recommend the Dynatex.

Be aware the rules at most sites is to only throw underarm and not above waist height as they would cause injury if thrown properly and land on someone.

That's where the cardboard pyro MK5's have an advantage.

As much as most sites don't allow 12g it's nice to be able to use them. They are great fun for shits and giggles. 

BFGs are best for CQB really, woodland not so much unless its timed, but then you have the big risk of losing it in the undergrowth/mud etc . so personally @Asomodai I would suggest not getting one if you havent used and have no desire to field one. I know you dont like CQB much.

Bring the smaller ones to our next game, I will take them off your hands   

+1 on stage gels

I like the chocolate wrapper idea... Feel free to send me any left over chocolate if you cant manage to eat a whole tin!!

So you FINALLY got to visit  

Yeah! I did enjoy myself

So you extended the flat lower down the shaft then cut off the top extruding part?

@EDcase Yes. I cut off the extruding part to prevent the small possibility of it fouling on the cutoff lever. 

Ah, airsoft "standards. I guess it's fortunate that you had to (and could) shorten it, rather than having the opposite problem.

There's another site in faversham?... i thought it was just Imperium and the orchard near Tynham?

@MandalShArK Apologies. I meant Fawkham! 

@poachers if the underground plays ball on the weekend then I would love to take you up on the offer. What is your play style? See if we go tag team on some players.

If/when I get down to Plantation in the New Year more than willing to come pick you up mate

Im in Enfield pal. If youre in Cheshunt i can pick you up

That sounds great mate. Lets make it a date

Ping me your address when you have time, also Bring your own food and drink as there is no catering. 

@ak2m4 can tell you. Peter's been selling them for ages with good reviews. How they stack up to stock TM though, I don't know.

Never had a stock TM to compare one with.

What I do know is they beat most stock 6.08 JG/Cyma/APS barrels. There about the same as an LCT 6.02.

You can polish them and they get better if you do that.

If you are in doubt ask @ak2m4 He sells enough of them to know what's what with inner barrels.

There certainly better than anything made from alumimiun. I'd have a ZCI over the like of a madbull any day of the week.

If you really wanted an upgrade you might get one of the newer polished tolleranced Lambda barrels from ak2m4. Those should certainly be an upgrade. The 6.05 lambda 5 with the 1 micron finish should outperform pretty much all stock barrels out there if the polish is right. At £40-50 I will be taking a punt on one the next time I need an upgrade.

Cheers guys. 

I forgot AK2M4 sold them. I have picked up one for my P90 and one for my MP5. 

Oooooh! As an ex-Guildford boy, Surrey appeals to me!

Where abouts is it?

Oh wait, do you mean Longmoor?

@L3wisD all will be revealed 😉 and no it's completely new. 

Private invite to a new CQB site ? Barsteward ! 🤬

edit just noticed YOU’VE GOT ONE OF THOSE MAG ADAPTER ABOMINATIONS IN YOUR KSG ! 🤮

you will burn in Hell for it !

Send that bad boy back! (Then buy my Perun ETU++ as it's unskirmished and coming out this evening)

All fixed now! Definitely the Cylinder head pad caused the piston to destroy some teeth. Replaced it with a CYMA White piston and superglued the pad in. All good now! 280 FPS on .28's. Gears need reshimming but will wait until I get a new motor, ZCI Piston, cylinder head and cylinder (Seriously G&G uses a 3/4 Cylinder in a 430 mm barrel??) 

Needs AOE corrected, but it will probably survive a skirmish! 

@Steveocee, is that just the Perun mosfet section that can be used on the G&G ETU? I missed a brand new one for 40 quid the other day. 

@Asomodai

Yeah that's the one, 2 spades and total removal of the monstrosity G&G issued you with.

Have PM'd you 👍

maybe a wide bore barrel?

I may need to go that route. I could cut down my current 400mm barrel, but I had matched it with a 4/5 Cylinder. We'll see how the spring change will do. 

I would prefer something more efficient then anything and wide bores go against all of that IMO

If you take them for what they are cheap and cheerful run all day bombproof gun’s then me personally I think there cracking good guns for the money ! 

One of us! One of us! One of us!

I bought it but fell out of love with the furniture rather quickly.

My 2020 'soft season ended in September unfortunately

Worst year ever

@Skara Honestly I am surprised at how many skirmishes I managed to go to despite lockdown.

Balls to all that travel for a site I knew was crap ! 

Havent played in months, and April weekends have already been booked with family and work stuff, I got so desperate I was thinking of a game at Bunker 51 too.. 

But came to my senses   

@Albiscuit I decided against that too. Though there is talk of a gas and spring night soon which I'll be up for! 

Screw you guys! Weather looks marginally better 😉

Enjoy

You're so well practiced at putting them together it shouldnt be a problem then 

There's a spin for every scenario

You walked into this one to be fair haha
