  1. Yo, Ares SCR stock. Go print it
  2. Imagine going on a bike holiday with your old man.

    Imagine having the worst luck possible throughout the trip.

    Imagine him crashing in the most retarded way ever, completely destroying his right knee ligaments.

    Just when we reached the best places..

      Motorcycle trip, not bicycle.

       

      He can't drive anymore, so he is stuck at the hotel until a friend of mine rents a van and picks us up on Tuesday lol.

       

      At least we can still visit some WW1 museums around here :) which is the theme of this holiday

      Ok.

      Hope he makes a good recovery.

      Enjoy the museums.

      👍

  3. Fixed M16 stock on an ARP-9 yay or nay?

     

    Kinda like the WWSD concept, but in 9mm

  4. SHS 16tpa HT motor (long shaft) SHS 13:1 gears Wires, screws. from our friend @ak2m4
  5. Not going for bearing spring guide/piston head unless i SS, the energy output as of now is bang on for my limit (0.95J, 1J limit, I absolutely cannot have a sigle reading above 1J, sometimes people get fuckt over having ONE reading of 1.0000000J). Bought the motor, gears and a bunch of wires. Turned out a bit expensive from our friend at ak2m4 but heh, don't care too much, that's how it is with shipping from the UK I do actually have a bearing non qd spring guide, I don't use it anyway, so should the need for a bearing spring guide arise, I'm covered Nice tip you gave me there
  6. Oh no I'm not going to run 13:1s on a 11.1, I'm stupid but not THAT stupid What I meant was I'm gonna run a 11.1 on stock gears and motor, with just the mosfet wired. When the motor arrives then I'm gonna swap it and run 7.4s, eventually doing adjustments. 13:1 gearset is not going to be installed until/unless the stock gears shit the bed. Given that the gun is brand new it's gonna take a while to break.
  7. Thanks for the detailed answers. I'll get the SHS 16tpa motor then, along with a set of 13:1s to keep as spares once something fails. Meanwhile I guess I'll use it on a 11.1 once I wire the fet in..
  8. It's called Lavazza In Black, it's 100% Arabica. Anyway, suggestions for a slightly faster motor that still falls under the high torque definition? Not looking at speedsoft levels of ROF, just something that puts me in the high teens on a 7.4
  9. Chronoed at 0.83J on 0.25s, Swapped the stock hop rubber for a ML, now chronoes at 0.95J, bang fucking on for my limit. The rof in a 7.4 is a bit shit though at 13 bb/s. Will check again on a 11.1 when I get the chance to wire the nanohard in. Lol, for real tho, Illy coffee is overpriced for the quality, I personally use a Lavazza variety that is not available in stores, but can't remember the exact name. A hair more expensive than regular Lavazza coffee, but god it tastes so good.
  10. No worries I clearly don't sleep enough lol. I have tested a R-Hop comparing it to a Maple Leaf MR-Hop rubber, and the ML does the exact same thing but it's less of a pain to install. both systems sent 0.32s up to 60/65 metres with good consistency (used Geoffs for testing).
  11. Not that I can feel. Receiver is solid despite the rough finish (it's not as smooth as say a G&P polymer receiver) I now need to think of a clever way to wire the mosfet without eating too much battery space, my 7.4s fit comfortably in the stock, but the 11.1s are too fat and need to go in the tube. Also the ROF on a 7.4 is a bit meh when you're used to an ARP-9 and a 11.1 lol. Yep it's generic, but not here, where everyone wants keymod rails to be high speed operator. M4A1 style guns are kinda rare. Illy is trash and overpriced
  12. It's gonna stay that way, at least externally, bar installing a sling plate and removing the front swivel (don't use it anyway and it rattles a lot)
  13. Gotta admit, the gun does feel toyish I'll make a first impressions thread, as there is absolutely fuck all online about the C02.
  14. Outdoors and maybe tournaments, I barely play CQB and I have the ARP for that *binary trigger says hi* Bought a set of bearings, but I'm not going to replace the stock bushings yet, they seem to be made of steel so I expect them to last for quite a while before needing replaced. Hop rubber is gonna go straight out of the box though, replaced by a Maple Leaf MR-Hop along with its Omega nub, it's a combination that works really well and lifts heavy bbs. It's mostly a case of plugging the battery in and addressing anything I don't like.
  15. I'm a master at clickbait! Gotta change my nick to Novritsch or KM. But, if you think about it, the best gun is the one that puts a grin on your face Tomorrow morning we'll find out
  16. Okay guys. Made my decision and bought a Specna C02 in half tan as they like to call it. Could've gone for a G&G Raider CQB but meh, doesn't have a QC box and still has the old style hop chamber with gears. Not really an issue but when considering that it is more expensive than the specna (€150 against 120), plus I would have spent more for a new chamber (ye €9 but price is almost irrelevant, it's the principle), the choice was rather easy Cheers to all for your input Now let the poor man's AEG build begin.
  17. Almost a month late, but I just ordered my well deserved birthday present. Specna C-02 in two tone (half tan/black) Then got a few bits and bobs. GATE NanoASR (a backup for the NanoHard, which is a backup for the Warfet.. there is no such thing as too many backups ) Set of 0.10/0.20/0.30mm shims SHS plastic rotary hop chamber SHS 8mm bearings Yet another ML Omega tensioner (i have at least another 5 spares, but why not) A bag of BIO Specna EDGE 0.3s for my pistols and sniper A cheap FMA M-Lok grip. EDIT: I am also an idiot, once again forgot to put some AK flash mags in the cart. I'm so braindead..
  18. Does anyone have a spare M4 butt plate with door that he wants to get rid of?

      only one I found was this but fuck knows about compatibility and it's a whole buttstock

  19. You'll have to redo the wiring anyway, so at this point you could buy another v3 switch, wire the warfet to that one so you have a backup in case something goes funny.
  20. I'd keep it, unless you're planning to wire a mosfet in.
  21. Fucking deans, such a pain to solder..

      Well you do need a fuckton of tin on the connector's blades.

       

      XT60s required very little and they have those awesome sockets for the wires rather than a flat plate..

       

      But hey, GATE mosfets come with deans, not XT-60s :(

      Flatten wire with pliers, put some solder on both wire and deans contact, melt them together, boom, done. Then heat shrink.

      Just use a choccy block. saves soldering then lol

  22. @mightyjebus any updates? How's the gun performing? I am seriously tempted to buy one at this point (and sell my Ares piece of shit). Problem is, on TaiwanCum it's out of stock along with its longer brothers and the ones with the regular M4 stock. I have managed to find one on an Italian retailer but that's €200 shipped (almost double the price).
