      I know about the original video, it's been posted in here a couple of times already.

       

      I thought it'd be nice to remind people to NOT act like they're some speshul forces

      @clumpyedge.sorry just read your post again.

      I'm not sure about drones but I think you are right on that.

      I'm specifically talking about people with cameras being able to film.

      🙂👍

      Don’t think anyone is saying you can’t film in a public space , but if someone objects to there child being filmed they could get the police involved and you ‘could’ be on very thin ice if you refused to either stop filming the child or refused to delete the footage .

      Can’t remember the exact name but there is an offence to do with filming or photographing a minor even in a public space without consent  .

    4. Shamal

      Shamal

      In public consent is not needed.in the case of children they can be filmed so long as the footage does not contain any lewd or indecent images of them.

      I typed in 'filming in public' and that's what it says.i know some people get really irate and scream that they dont give their permission to be filmed or that filming them is a breach of gdpr but neither statements are correct.lets face it we are all filmed every day by shops,garages,hospitals,shopping centres.its all around us.🙂👍

      oh well that is worth a go at that price

       

      yes they are the cheapo guns that goes a bit tits up

      & if you can find one that needs a bit of TLC

      well then go for it - why not

       

      brand new they was like about £60 a couple of years back

      but lately seem rather thin on the ground new

       

      guess with the £63 really cheap CM.5XX Cyma's M4's AK's

      & say £75 - MP5's, the old cheap Galaxy's have lost ground in the brand new gun section/selection

       

      so 30 notes - is worth a bash

      just thought of spending say £75+ at a UK retailer

      (I know you're in Italy)

      the thought of people rushing out to spend £75+ new

      for a MP5k based on this fortunate install - is a bit risky

       

      30 notes - yeah fuck it, what ya got to lose

       

      just remember to order some LUCK

      and when people like Luke are so good

      they make it LOOK easy

       

      yonks ago somebody said to another person their job is easy

      & their reply was fucking awesome I kept it to hand...

       

      No boss - I'm so fucking good at what I do...

      I simply MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY

       

      (fucking love that response)

    3. Skara

      Another option:

      My team tech has an old battered TM mp5k thrown in the bin. Externally it only needs a new mag release paddle.

      I could buy a brand new V3 box (8mm with QC spring), get that TM body for free and then build onto that.

       

      How about this?

    4. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      Free is even better

       

      Only thing to watch is the bespoke bits on MP5k's...

       

      Like don't break the selector plate...

       

      You can get a MP5 v2 selector, but for a v3 they are not so common

       

      Stuff like that be careful if tearing things apart

       

      You could also drill the back of a gearbox with say 15mm hole to make your DIY QC box

      (For poops n giggles)

       

      Coz guns with foldable/removable stock end, with exposed box showing...

      Are screaming for a QC box in them

  5. "Hey is the XXXX still available?"

    "Hey, yes it is, need further information/pictures?"

    Then they disappear...

     

    What the fuck, why do you even bother asking in the first place? Fucking window licking inbreds.

      I am getting more and more intrigued by this review, I think I have read it 6 or 7 times already.

      I think I can get it for relatively cheap, and for sure it'll make for a somewhat nice variation to the standard, boring m4.

    3. Adolf Hamster

      ahh yes, forgot you were in italy.

       

      that's the same style as my jg, very handy little gun.

       

      cyma's ak's are good, i certainly wouldnt call it a bad choice (they're the rental gun of choice round here and they seem to hold up to that abuse just fine). of course lct/e&l's exteriors are in a different league but they don't shoot much different.

       

      i'd say go for it, side rail mount with a simple tube optic and a bit of scrim net taped round the stock for padding it's just grand.

    4. Lozart

      Lozart

      As per my comment on the ATRG review, I had that exact model and it was a beast of a weapon. Needs a few internal bits to improve it but it's built like a tank and is well worth dropping the cash on if it's the kind of thing you're after.

       

      I only got rid of mine because I preferred my SCAR and M4's.

      That is fecking ridiculous ! There’s no way on the face of this earth your NOT going to have some serious if not life threatening de-hydration situations there ! Who ever is organising it AND still allowing it to go on should be kicked off this one and permanently banned from ever organising another event of any kind .

      Period .

      It's gonna be fun.

       

      Last tournament the organizing team removed a couple of objectives because they weren't the safest thing considering the weather.

       

      If they're smart, they'll go back to the original plot and maybe bring some extra water bottles for the participants.

      If not, we'll take out sweet revenge when it'll be our turn to organize 😈

      Yeah I know.

      But still pisses me off..

       

      Btw the arp spring guide has a spacer, not a proper thrust bearing but does the same thing.

      Oh well :D at least I got to clean up the mess created by the plastic king arms piston I previously had in the gun.

      There is an air leak around the nozzle, but I'll wait to rebuild the whole box to fix it.

    3. Steveocee

      Steveocee

      Beat me to it, was going to suggest of course obligatory broken spring replacement but whack an 0-ring nozzle in there whilst you're at it.
      On my Ares 008 I'm using an M90 with spring and pistonhead bearings with a 128mm 6.01 inner and it sits just about on 1J, really shouldn't need an M110 to get you there.

    4. Sitting Duck

      Piston Spacers...

       

      https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Nylon-Plastic-SPACERS-Standoff-Washer-M3-M4-M5-M6-M8-M10-or-M13-12-PACK/332366408497?hash=item4d6294eb31:g:9p4AAOSwUMpeH5Hx

       

      15mm O/D

      5mm & 10mm thickness

       

      Alas the 5mm thick has only a M5 hole

      so you may need to widen it a bit depending on piston head fitment

       

      a 3mm tooth equates ROUGHLY to M05 or 16.4fps

      so ROUGHLY a 5mm spacer adds up to 27 fps

      & ROUGHLY a 10mm spacer adds up to 54 fps

       

      Or a 5mm spacer will offset most of power lost from SS 2 teeth

      & a 10mm spacer will offset a smidge more than SS 3 teeth

       

      APROX - it kinda works but airsoft physics never works out

      exactly in every case - but along those lines somewhat

       

      One word of caution though...

      If using a 10mm spacer, double check some longer spring guides

      do not bottom out on spacer at full 101% stroke

      it is very rare but one spring guide just kissed the 10mm spacer

      at full retraction

      Not really an issue for me as I SS quite a few boxes

      but on say a full length AK 455mm where you keep full or most of stroke, then it is something to remember if trying to boost power

      (either a m80 spring to get 350fps or a m100 spring for DMR use)

      Then if boosting the spring compression/power with a 10mm spacer

      just see if the guide/spacer come close to bottoming out...

       

      FUCK IT - pics say a 1,000 words...

       

      variation in spring guide lengths:

       

      5dEG568.jpg

       

      (no they are spring guides not collection of "other toys")

       

      and some instances where a longer spring guide might bottom out

       

      fJweAFG.jpg

       

      Now admit that is due to the collar from bearings being used...

       

      PcQy4i3.jpg

       

      but you get the idea of what to watch out for

      (and why you should not push it with longer 15mm or 20mm long spacers inside piston)

       

      So I use 5mm or 10mm thick 15mm spacers

       

      and wtf as i revisited my old imgur account

      here is 007's view on which gears to use...

      or an A-Tacs iX one so I can match my TMR ☹️

       

      Sent Emperion a message, asked if they could show me the pack rigged to a tmr to check if the buckles are compatible.

      I tried strapping my Condor hydration bag to it but for some reason the buckles aren't compatible.

      Condor male buckles fit too tight while the helikon ones don't lock.

       

      If they are kind enough to answer and they actually fit, i'll order one in either grey or OD and give it a paintjob to match the iX palette

      @Skara - Yeah I don't really get what the supply chain issue is. Even if you pre-ordered yonks ago you won't have one in your hands for another four months.

    3. Skara

      Skara

      Speculation in the SniperWorks discord says that this delay is because he's making them on order (from what I've seen they actually machine the uppers in house).

      Although pre-ordering seems to be the standard now for new guns/gear/everything.

    4. Cr0-Magnon

      Cr0-Magnon

      @Skara - That's one way to ensure healthy cash flow!.....also I may have accidentally ordered one but thinking of cancelling it in hindsight. I've just ordered another SSX23 and that shoots about as far as I would need it to. Plus, really struggling to compute having only 24 rounds in my primary magazine (plus those MK23/SSX23/SSX303 mags are a bitch to load).

      I think what he's trying to point out is that the titan is a tool designed for a very specific task and it's reliant on the rest of the system performing to a certain standard.

       

      But if done right it does give you functionality that nothing else does, at least nothing without an air line going into it.

      Well, I have tested it in anger on Sunday, although without fixing the air seal.

      Managed to reach people at 60 metres (measured) while pulling a MC Hammer on them.

       

      Spread seemed almost non existent up to 45/50 metres, but I will have to confirm it with a proper shooting test (might record it and post it somewhere next sunday).

       

      Feeding is fine, somehow. My ARP never fed flawlessly for some reason.

      Overall impressed so far.

      @Skara nice. Omega nub I gues?

    4. Skara

      Skara

      @Lozart yes, along with a shim between the nub and the arm, because without it (regardless of the rubber and tensioner used), the chamber gives barely enough pressure to lift 0.23s.

      Could be me missing something, as it's a modification I HAVE do to all my guns bar GBBs..

  17. 12:1 installed in the ak.

    Shimming was literally the same, bar a different arrangement on the bevel...

      sounds like 11.1 is pushing her fast enough that the tappet hasn't the time to close and seal properly before the piston is firing.

       

      might need a meatier tappet spring.

    3. Skara

      Skara

      Was thinking of shaving the fin instead, but I might do it at a later date.

      Eeeh, we'll see how she does tomorrow :)

    4. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      Yeah likely tappet timing, full fin & a delayer

      especially if a long delayer like this...

       

      SHS Plastic Sector Clip - Airsoft Shop, Airsoft Guns, Sniper rifles, Airsoft  pistols, parts and bbs by FireSupport

       

      not as enormous as some sectors like JG one...

       

      JG G36 V3 Problem!!! - Electric Guns - Airsoft Forums UK

       

      now that is fucking silly, it is a one piece delayer

      that has a pin cast into delayer that goes through

      both halves of sector gear, so if you remove it

      you need to drift in an old axle from another sector

      to give you a pin to mount a more sensible clip...

       

      Delayer métal - Atelier Airsoft

      You can just slip on a sleeve from old gears/sector

      to add a whisper more retraction than delay as such

      like what is only option on a DSG...

       

      Sitting Duck's Content - Page 15 - Airsoft Forums UK

       

      For the game, run it mostly on 7.4v perhaps

      or 11.1v if running support for example

       

      Wait until you need to open her up again

      then either:

       

      remove/change delayer

      or

      trim tappet

      or

      lop a couple of loops off tappet spring

       

      if you short stroke it at some point

      then you you should trim off about 5mm from fin

      not insane stuff like DSG

      but an inbetween full & DSG fin so to speak

       

      TBH running it full stroke at 29~30rps at 325fps

      is kinda sailing a bit close to wind for my liking

       

      so really stick to 7.4v...

       

      What motor is in there ???

      Think that is a ZCI 22tpa/20~22k rpm as 30k would be like 25rps

       

      Something like a 25k would have just put you into the 20's

      but tbh you are pretty damn close to what you wanted

       

      but low current/amp draw, snappy response etc...

      short stroking might not be an option on a 400~450 barrel AK

       

      So overall you are at what you sought to be

      plus when the v3 Perun arrives you'll have pre-cocking

      so all's well that ends well as they say

       

      I'd be tempted to look for a slightly quicker motor

      not much quicker, but if you come across a cheap 19tpa

      then that could fit the bill

       

      but 30rps on full stroke 325fps is getting a little close

      and tbh as it stands atm on 7.4v, touching 20rps

      that's a good rof on a full AK, with snappy response

  18. 13:1 all the things?

     

    Only the AK is left to do now 😕

      probably.

       

      had to laugh when i was looking at them with the elite model "upgrade" over the advanced was just that you get access to the titan world rankings, woop de fucking doo......

      Well you do get a slider instead of 5 definite steps on the trigger sensitivity tuning and a few other things, but the extra €50 are not justified imo.

       

      Was comparing my Advanced with my mate's Expert and apart from that (which I solved with a MAXX adjustable trigger because swag and beacuse it's easier to fine tune a screw rather than a slider on a shit smartphone -.-) I haven't found anything worth..

      The slider is on the advanced? At least i distinctly remember a slider.

       

      Maybe a beta feature?
