Mmmkay.
Bought a Guarder SP90 for the striker, it chronoes at 1.05J on a Guarder SP100.
One would say "good, it'll drop to 0.9something", right?
Nope. 0.6J...
Decided to nip a coil off the SP100, power goes up to almost 1.1J...
Another coil off, 1.08..
A third of the spring is now in pieces and finally the bloody thing is below 1J....

Specs change but SP90 seems irregular at one end...
slightly tighter at one end than the other
so you "should" have got some difference
compared to a regular spring...
(which should be same either way round)
Some other irregular springs are tighter in middle
AND one of the ends are tighter than the other...
Honestly the way the spring is fitted can make a difference
(as said I've flipped a spring to squeeze another 10fps more than once)
The SP90 or SP100 should just be tighter at one end
so should have made some slight difference
BUT like I said specs can change and be a different spring
or most likely just them qwirky airsoft gremlins
as said these spring/power stuff doesn't always follow logic
Probably why Mr Spock doesn't do airsoft
(his ears would be stinging as easy big target)
you got it sorted & that's all that matters
-
Yep, I am definitely gonna experiment more with this irregular spring theory. I've heard it in the past but never got to "play" with it.
SP100 is done but I still have the SP90 and I can always buy another SP100
after all it's €7.50, won't lose my sleep over that amount, plus having an extra spring in my spare parts drawer is always nice.
i just thought it was funny to cut a spring and gain power
Now I can SlAy ChEeTaHs on Sunday

Big game on Sunday with all the teams from the region.
Field looks seems to be really open.
Shall I take the sniper or sling 0.32s in my AEGs?

Ahahahah, I'm afraid our adventures with the cheetah club are over
After "stealing" our worst members (literally, they took in a guy who doesn't call his hits unless he bleeds and another who thinks he knows it all lol), we decided to never invite them on our field again.
With that being said, I think I'll bring the AK, although I have to check the shimming as it's a bit of a whiny bitch, if I can't fix it in time then it's Honey Badger time with the specna as a backup.
I have ML rubbers in all my guns, so hopping them rocks isn't really a problem..

Ares grip I guess... Had the same issue with it (on an Ares M4 btw), motor sits at a stupid angle and chews on bevel gears/pinions.. What the fuck were they thinking..
-
Don't remind me when I bought mine some 2 years ago M81 wasn't available yet Fucking Helikon really
-
BOIS I NEED HELP!
(Nice clickbait huh?)
for real tho.
A mate of mine has an Amoeba CCR for sale, externally it's OK but internally it's utter shit, all grindy and runs at sub 20 RPS on a beefy 11.1...
I have a Honey Badger, internally it's great but I want a super short rifle with a folding stock.
Would it be worth to swap bodies?

I just rebuilt the HB in its stock form, with the super unbalanced and heavy OEM 9" rail. It's uncomfortable but it does look good, especially with the FF carry handle (which I bought FYI
).
also chronoed it, 0.96J (good) and 16 RPS on a 11.1 (meh).
New motor's coming in next week (debating whether or not putting the ifrit 25k or the incoming SHS high torque in there, any tip?).
I've already seen that AY thingy, what bugs me is the metal receiver.
Not because of the weight (2070g vs 1930 of the Ares and I can still send it to a friend to be skeletonized and shave some grams off) but because after a while all the metal body guns I've seen turned into wobbly cunts. Definitely inviting for the price (apart from the weird gearbox shell).
I'll check on another teammate who has a CCR, it's been rebuilt recently and runs somewhat smooth.
-
Ifrit is more expensive
25k and main point is it has an " O " type pinion
The SHS HT is 30k (ish), has a D type pinion
To me it falls to performance/price and ease of pinion replacement. Even if you got a pinion puller, if you can get or already have spare pinions that some might mesh with bevel being used
SHS do both type of pinions anyway
If you got a puller then it boils do to the price/performance & availability I guess
Both are good motors
If you got an ifrit in your gun then you don't HAVE to change it like you would if you had a later STD 18k G&G grey motor
If people find the 25k Blue "Powerful Motor" ferrite motor
or better still the Orange Ifrit in their new G&G then they don't really need a new motor is what I mean
tough call but price performance I'd probably go for SHS
but if a Ifrit came in gun or lightly used one came along for a cheap price I'd consider it
as said think price/availability along with pinion etc...
will dictate which one is better - but both are decent
-
Asked because I already have an ifrit (it's in my arp at the moment), since I'm getting another SHS HT/13:1 combo I thought I'd slap the SHS stuff in the ARP and use the 25k on the Ares.
I'll give it a try tomorrow and see what happens
Not looking at 27 RPS/7.4 type of performance tho.
but ffs 16 RPS on a 11.1 is just meh
-
Thanks for calling me a cheater btw, tonight I'll curl up in a corner holding my drum magged arp9 crying all night as I said, I just keep the trigger pulled until he/she either raises a hand or starts moaning about the pain. Yes it's a bad thing to do, but it's effective, after all this time I've come to the conclusion that a) it's not worth ruining your day (getting mad at someone) b) some people learn only when they get hurt (physically-pain- or economically-shit broken by endless streams of bbs-) It's a very Mustang-esque line of thought, now that I think about it lol.
-
I don't get why people leave games early Just use the fun switch and make 'em bleed
-
Another SHS High Torque motor and SHS 13:1 gears from @ak2m4 Motor will go on the honey badger, the gears will go on the ARP-9
-
Judging by their design, not much, especially at the gun end.
-
Young (teens/early 20s) refs aren't a good idea. I mean, as long as they deal with same age or younger players everything is fine, but once they have to deal with cocky older people it all goes to shit.
-
Not if you short stroke. Although I'd recommend to either check my "wat am bset gnu" thread or actually create a dedicated one, TL;DR 13:1, SHS HT and a 7.4 on my specna are giving me 27.5 RPS, on an Ares it takes a little more effort as there are magnets to glue onto gears lol let's try to keep this one tidy-ish
-
I'm buying another SHS high torque specifically for that gun. Maybe you should too
-
Another great day! The specna M4 performed flawlessly, sending 0.28s way over there and took full advantage of it throughout the games, at some point a few of the younger players questioned the legality of the gun. Opted to leave the AAP at home and only take the mk23, should have left that one too as I used it once. But anyway. We invited a club we really enjoy playing with, bunch of players who play well but don't take airsoft too seriously, 14 people on the field in total. Games went well, got some long range kills and in the last game I single handedly wiped the whole attacking team. Well, to be completely honest it was almost impossible to dig me out of the hole I found without doing a WW1 style trench charge. Downside: gotta rework my full kit. Again. Fuck me.

No clue. skirmshop.nl has some parts but the one I'm interested in is out of stock (the stock)
-
Modify is working on a Steyr Scout Rifle!!!
About time!
-
Regarding this rubber thing. Would a piece of hop rubber suffice? Care to share any pictures of the mod?
-
I want two so I can have one in its stock configuration (to be used with any loadout) and the dedicated SMG for muh snipah (surprise surprise, I got the idea from KM lol) I'm not a fan of constantly taking stuff on and off. I am after that particular stock too, unfortunately it's not available yet in Italy (or San Marino) and getting it from abroad makes it somewhat expensive at €40 + min. 20 postage. I am in no rush though, I think I'll prioritize upgrading the internals of the one I have (hammer, trigger, whatever is made of pot metal and needs addressed)
-
Correct, I have one. I believe I was the first one in Italy to get it, at least that I know of. I really like mine, I did have to change the hop rubber as it was rather inconsistent and, with the hop fully dialed in, it barely hopped 0.3s to 40 metres. Quick rubber swap with a 50° Decepticon and voila, easy 60 metres snipes. I only wish AA put a straight/speed trigger on it (without the safety, safeties are for pussies and americans) and an external semi/full auto switch. Not that I use it that much, but switching modes is a pain in the neck and it's its main drawback. As of now I'm looking at buying a second one (in black this time) to turn into a smg (stock, top rail and 50 rounders) to use as a secondary for my sniper kit, or as a primary for those ultra rare cqb games. Oh, and in case you didn't know, the guys at Hadron Designs are already working on a dedicated TDC
-
Time to redo all the loadouts!
-
Today's game was really fun! 9 people from 2 different clubs plus one or two "freelancers", playing in the hardest and steepest part of our field. Games were smooth, hit taking excellent and we had a good laugh when a single defender wiped the whole attack out in the first 60 seconds of the 2nd last game Did have a few issues with my kit, namely forgetting my bag of bbs at home (had a 2300bb drum, but had to stick to semi auto) and my bodged up backpack ripping itself apart. plus my arms are full of scars because diving in bushes while wearing just a tee is fun If only all game days were like this.
-
Nope, it does nothing
-
he didn't play tournaments because he was underage, not because we didn't want him to play, after all he's not a bad player, he's fast and for the most part can listen to "commands" Now that we have seen his real intentions, yeah, fuck him. Shame for his dad as he is just following his son but heh, people come and go. meanwhile I'm preparing my kit for tomorrow's game. arp or pink m4?

Given that with 10k Lire one could fill gas, eat pizza and have enough money left for an ice cream and a pack of cigarettes, that 10k Lire is €5 and now with that amount you can only buy like 3 litres of fuel OR a pack of cigarettes. Apartments there must be in the region of €300k for the shittiest ones right now
