Yeah, definitely better to get a new outer barrel but may as well give something a try first.

I've had a Parrot Anafi for about a year but not really used it much. I did register as required now. (If above 250g) ...But I just got (myself) an underwater drone 😃 'Chasing Dory' Going to find treasure in the Thames 😉

Yeah, I'm thinking that it could tighten up against the end to make sure its aligned.

I returned a faulty STTi MK23 last year. They were really good actually. Gave me a return label to put on the package and arranged a courier to pick it up. Got refund about a week later. I can't remember how much the return was but its worth it if the product is really broken on arrival. Things will be quite a bit slower and possibly more expensive now.

You could try some electrical tape. (worked for me on a different pistol) Or JBWeld and wait until nearly dry before threading on and off a few times to get new threads worn in before taking off and allowing to dry fully. A bit late but I would suggest an XT301 or LighterS would be better for a pistol

It does seem to vary but that's the average I found from several sites

Normal green gas is around 130psi at 20 degrees

If you clean the barrel and it still shoots the same then you could return it as its not performing as it should. Me personally, I would disassemble it and clean/check everything first and if still shoots that far off then I'd return.

Being hit through clothes is generally not painful though it can hurt a bit. (I've been sprayed in the back and even with a DPM smock it left marks) If hit on the skin its like a bee sting that goes away after a few minutes and can leave red marks for a couple of days. If hit at close range on the skin then its a big sting that can break the skin but this is rare.

The groupings look OK. It does seem to be shooting low. But the hop definitely isn't working properly. @JevGen Make sure to clean the barrel properly (Ideally with Isopropyl)

There is something wrong with the hop unit. The difference between min and max should be MUCH more. You'll have to take it apart to see. Its not very difficult and good to know. Fix could be as simple as re-seating things or hop rubber may need replacing which is cheap. Look on YT for vids on FNX 45 disassembly etc

It will definitely help. Simplest way to put up would be 3 nails/screws. One each end and one middle.

Hey Snuff I just got myself some 0.2 of these and they work really well so far Here's the 0.25 versions https://www.taiwangun.com/025g-bbs-6mm/tracer-bb-0-25g-4000-pcs-guarder?q=tracer&campaign-id=14 You can get 10% off with code 'winter10'

Welcome (back) 🖐️

Put some rugs up on the walls I helped make a sound recording booth years ago with the Convoluted Acoustic Foam (Egg box foam) Its so weird not to have any reverb at all so may affect your sanity long term 🙃 But it would be quite expensive to do a whole room. You could just do the common walls to other rooms...

Definitely! Read them all...

I haven't bought anything in a week so I must have stopped 😆

Welcome Yeah, it can be a deep hole... Take it slow and only get what you need not what you want. That's what I said to myself and now several thousand pounds later I think I've stopped 😆

Welcome back to the sport As Shamal said, you should not fully discharge a LiPo. Unlike the NiCd's we had before, LiPo's do NOT need 'exercising' Its better for LiPos to be topped-up rather than allowed to go low. Always disconnect after a game. I take mine out of the guns before leaving and keep them in a separate pouch. Its not good to keep LiPo's stored for long periods (weeks) at full charge. If you're not going to be using a battery for a while then select 'Storage Charge' setting on the charger.

Congrats making it all the way around the sun again 😜

Yeah, absolutely can't understand why there aren't more makers of this classic pistol

I saw a video of another person who had the same failure. We've all ordered spares from KYA 🤣 From what I understand, they complete orders on the 15th of each month. I hope there is enough stock of those parts because they'll probably need one for every hi-power sold 🙄 I tried making a copy from a stronger bit of metal but it didn't work properly even though it looked exactly the same. (I glued the old part to the new piece of metal to match the outline) If its going to take a long time to get the spare I may try again...

WE have fallen a bit in my mind. They do make good pistols but my experience lately has shown that they also make crap... Their Hi-Power Mk3 is badly designed (same as the older P35) Myself and another forum member have had the same piece break with the same failure point. And Negative Airsoft bought two which were dead out of the box... I'd wait to see if its in the 'well made' category or the 'shitty' category.
