  1. Last time I took mine apart, it was fine, albeit the spring is kinda shorter than usual (because the guys @gunfire nicked it off to stay below 1J) Will check again as soon as my parts arrive, I wanted to replace the spring anyway as it's a bit on the low side (around 0.75J)..
  2. Yup that's why. The guide-spring-piston system needs to have a little bit of tension at all times. In v2 boxes it's not a really big issue since the spring guide is kept in place by the buffer tube screw, but in an AK the guide isn't held by anything but spring pressure..
  3. Judging by the sector sensors, it reads the COL cam instead of the teeth. Interesting choice along with mixing optical sensors and microswitches.. The price tag makes it very competitive against the ngrs titan (which retails for €180 here)
  4. oh shit that Perun looks sweet!! Can't wait for the V3 version!
  5. If I turn a barrel from 6.02 to say 6.03/6.04 in the last 3/4 centimetres or so, will I fuck it up?

    My 247mm 6.02 ZCI has some wonky rock hard deposit of unknown stuff just before the crown and it keeps messing with accuracy.

    I don't want to bin it because I like the wider hop window.

      i dunno, he also comes from the country that gave us beretta and franchi, so they can sometimes get it right.

      Woah that's racist 😮

      I'm buying a new barrel anyway (zci 6.02x247, branded "gun five" here in italy, €16 lmao) so I'll use this ruined one for experiments.

      My club tech has a lathe I can use, so I'll give the crazy jet ripoff a go, if it fails, I'll cut and recrown and maybe use it on my PDW, or the AK even since both use 230-ish barrels :D

      you know we love ya :P

  6. because there is only a set limit for direct uploads. I suggest using a picture hosting website and then copy the links in here. I use imgur for that.
  7. I want one.... I mean, I'd like to have the handguard and stock, because it's G&G and the rest of the gun is shit.
  8. Before doing it, take the gun apart to check for more shady shit the seller "forgot" to tell you.
  9. get some barrel nut washers, the nut is most likely bottoming out on the threads without even touching the barrel.
  10. We don't talk about it. We have to include all minorities, including mentally challenged people.
  11. You sure? I think it's just a regular QD guide. But anyway, apart from the trigger, V3 boxes are incredibly easy to work with compared to V2s. Heck, you could even run a V3 without a body, since the motor and hop chamber are bolted onto the gearbox
  12. Aren't they just press fitted together?
  13. I think most AAP carbine kits are fucking ugly, some are so bodged up it's outstanding that they can hold together..
  14. 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?

  15. I recently picked up a helikon 2 points sling for €20 and while I have no experience with other RS slings, it doesn't feel cheap at all! In fact I might get one more for the AK, the thing is fairly heavy and some padding would definitely help. Mind you, €20 is cheaper than a ms3 clone and helikon doesn't make airsoft specific kit (read overpriced sweatshop shit). Worth a try I would say
  16. I just can't wait for a proper no bollocks trade agreement with the eu so I can start buying stuff from you again -.- sourcing specific parts in here is getting ridiculously expensive -.-
  17. Good boots don't have to be expensive, pick a pair that you feel really comfortable in. A good pair that doesn't fit will be as bad as a cheap pair that doesn't fit. Avoid online shopping and actually try some out. I say the single most important thing you shouldn't be afraid to spend on is eyepro. Too often I see people with €500+ guns that then run on cheap shit eyepro that isn't rated for anything but the slightest breeze. Luckily for you, your armed forces are issued Revision Sawflys which can be bought 2nd hand (but unused) for dirt cheap (€30 on average, idk what's the equivalent on quid, 25? I paid €30 for mine + €15/20 postage to italy).
  18. WEs for standard, I still say WE for extended. My AW extended didn't fare well the last time... okay it was pretty cold and I was using GG but fuck's sake a complete fill lasted 10 shots -.- meanwhile the standard WE mags ran flawlessly all day
  19. 300 quid including accessories? Also, M4, AK or any other platform you like?
  20. Yep, I'm running a MR 50° but I didn't phrase it right. What I meant is: will it hop 0.32s at 24 rps without acting funny? I also need some high caps (because reloading every once in a while is fun), but from what I've seen mp5 high caps are a bit shit.
  21. Fucking bang on. Ran flawlessly throughout the day. Very pleased with it, just need to test if it can lift 0.32s.
  22. PTS grips might look cool but they are a fucking design disaster..

    Holy shit.

      Fine.

      I'll redo the wiring on the 933 -.- but if the motor sits at a fucked angle I'm returning both grips and try the beaver tailed ones (They appear to be regular grips, but with fancy textures)

      Asked for a return on one of the grips.

      Can anyone confirm that the regular EPG (the one with the beaver tail) is exactly the same as a regular grip?

       

      From what I have seen, the motor plate is 1:1 with an A2, so I expect the wire routing to be the same.

      I think they have the same geometry as the old PTS MOE grips (back when the still had the Magpul License). They had to change the texturing to distance the design from Magpul's when the license was pulled.

       

      The old grips were a PITA because of the base plate - didn't play nice with many motors (you didn't have enough height adjustment to back the motor out far enough). Hopefully that's been sorted on the newer design.

  23. If I run my smersh I have all the mags on my left and counter balance with a bag of BBs on the right pouches. I typically don't do the fancy hand switching "weak side" shooting anymore, so I have virtually no need to keep mags on my right side. When I run my chest rigs I do have 1/2 mags on the right and they are the first ones to be "used" when the game's over or when I have plenty of time to reload, I like to keep my belt mag and the 1st on the left for "emergency" reloads as they are naturally the quickest and easiest ones to access in a pinch. Either way, personal preference really. Back in the day when I had one of those super cheap vests with mag pouches on the right, it was a bitch to reload as I had to: a) cross draw mags and b) have fun getting G36 mags out of single stack M4 pouches
