King arms pdw yay or nay?

You still won't hit anything, but at least you'll look cool

My fingers keep slipping. I think I have just ordered a Specna C-08 from gunfire, whoops

@Adolf Hamsterexposed.

Great job Graham! @L3wisDwould you mind taking a look at my last message (about the PP scam) and see if you can pin it somewhere?
-
Idk if I should make a dedicated thread, but there is a quite simple scam going around these days (especially in WhatsApp/Telegram groups). Basically the buyer comes up with a screenshot from PayPal in which PP asks for a code. In the meantime the buyer receives said code from PP via SMS. DON'T give that code to the buyer, it's basically a payment request from the buyer, he'll take the money and disappear, nothing you can do really as it seems to be registering as a F&F transfer. Posting because I'm seeing this shit coming up at least twice a day in the telegram groups I'm in. Idk if it's a purely Italian thing or if it happens elsewhere, so be careful guys. It's in Italian, but you get the idea of the screen you're being sent.

Double Eagle M904g – Aka the Original Q Honey Badger
Skara replied to mightyjebus's topic in AEG/GBBR Reviews
Yep, although the model I'm interested in (907E, same as yours but with a regular buffer tube) is now out of stock -.- -
NEVER pay by F&F unless it's someone you can find and kneecap easily.
-
Let me guess, Friends and Family payment? Who the fuck still pays with F&F in 2020?
-
Wut?

It looks like I just bought a split front TT MAV for €42 posted

The stock barrel is perfectly useable, the hop rubber I found it to be a little too hard, there's a 50° MR-Hop in mine and works like a charm

Boots are a huge giveaway, especially if they are black. I suggest splashing some blotches of spray paint (if they are cheap boots, you may not want to do that on €200+ boots lol). Bolts are easy to camo, a simple piece of bdu glued on top of the receiver does the trick and prevents dirt and shit to get into it. Mesh is good, but if safety is a concern then Lenskin are lifesavers just remember to keep the centre of the lens (where the eye looks through) clean so you still retain vision.

I feel you, my job is similar, I do get to move a bit from time to time (surveying is fun /s) but mostly it's about sitting in front of a PC drawing crap on AutoCAD -.-

You weak fuck jk I'm 29 and I'd totally do the same, just because I'm fat Anyway, I have mixed feelings about yesterday's game. Invited a couple of clubs, great guys to play with, they call their hits and play fair. Started with the bolt action, got a couple of kills but that part of the field still has too much vegetation to make bolt actions useable, so after 2 games I switched to the ARP-9. The usual 2kewl2die member of our club kept being 2kewl2die until I dumped half an ARP drum mag onto him. He did complain a bit about being overshot but then he behaved for the rest of the day. Glasses kept fogging because of the OneTigris half mesh half cloth mask, need to come up with a more breathable solution. no biggie though, it was a warm day (16 to 20°) and I made the terribad decision to run long sleeves -.- that's on me One thing that absolutely pissed me off was the MK23. I had it setup on the left shoulder strap of my backpack (I ran just my belt and pack) but due to the massive size of the thing it kept flopping about and kept getting in the way.

Stock and rail set arrived [img]https://i.imgur.com/oruAr8M.jpg[/img] And I just realized I didn't need the rear small rail

Skirmshop stuff arrived [img]https://i.imgur.com/oruAr8M.jpg[/img]

That is not really an issue tbf.

G&G high caps have weird shapes and bulge out in the middle for some reason. Also, trigger reponce

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
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.
-
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. -
Piston Spacers...
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:
(no they are spring guides not collection of "other toys")
and some instances where a longer spring guide might bottom out
Now admit that is due to the collar from bearings being used...
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...

@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.
-
-
@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).
-
So I found this telegram group.
People are buying/selling airsoft kit.
There's enough material to post once per hour on Macks for the next 15 years!
I've put a few items in there too (at reasonable prices, 65% of rrp yallayalla), I'm getting some dumb offers, didn't know I had "charity" next to my name.

€10 postage from skirmshop.nl I paid €77 or something for the lot, including postage. Buying it from airsoft world (or whatever website you mentioned the other day) would've probably set me back around the €100 mark.
-
Not a chance in hell tbf. Not a fan of those, also they're more expensive than the gun itself Also I heard they are not compatible with aftermarket hammers like CowCow ones (which I plan to get as soon as I can find them)

AAP-01 folding stock. AAP-01 rail (replaces the rear sight) AAP-01 rail set (long top, bottom) I now need a 2nd AAP-01 to mount all this shit onto
