can not find anyone that stocks a tappet plate for an ares MK43 gearbox, does anyone know if any other tappet plate will fit. A&K ones for their M60 gear box definitely will not,

ICS hop unit is proprietary no one appears to make an after market unit. unless the gun is currently not shooting accurately and least 50ish metres there is not much point changing barrel/ hop rubber.

that's a nicad battery. it certainly needs re wiring as the connector is missing. you need a female mini tamiya connector to fix that. now the battery is out dated tech as is the tamiya connector and the way to go would be to rewire the gun to use Deans connectors and buy a 7.4volt lipo battery of at least 1400mha capacity of roughly the same dimensions as the nicad battery. Down side of this you need to be able to solder (not that difficult but will require a soldering iron) and you will need a new smart charger for the lipo (battery and charger going to be minimum £40.00) . best option to start with is to spend a couple of quid get a female tamyia connector, fit it to the battery and charge it and see if it can still hold a charge.

why do you think you need a new battery? what batteries do you have and what charger?

possibly but likely to have fitment issues as it is just a rebranded KWC you would be batter just getting KWC mags (it maybe even be based on the Western Arms DE)

from what i have seen cybergun rebrands the WE and KWC Desert Eagles. the KWC is possibly a clone of the TM desert Eagle and the WE is a proprietary design so there will be most likely no cross over. one on the left does look like a TM copy

they started off a few years ago going to a few cons with booths flogging RIFs. Cosplayer generally shouldn't be sold RIFs half of them got no sense what so ever and i am really surprised some one hasn't been arrested/shot yet.

yeah the cosplay defence is utter shite they should be ashamed of flogging it especially as they were involved in getting airsoft a defence in the 1st place. but the fort was my 1st ever site and they been good to me as a customer for the last 20ish years

bit out the way but Airsoft world has a decently stocked show room. land warrior last time i was there wasn't brilliant for pistol choice.

yes. all the scope mounts available for the svd is right hand bias.

i was getting 60m hits at the range with 0.28g BBs. grouping wasn't great but they all hit a torso sized target on a stock gun. i only got rid of it as the POS scope couldn't be zeroed for left hand use.

I had a WE SVD it was decent.

You can get a c02 conversion for it. But again why get a bolt action version of a semi auto DMR.

There are multiple ways depending on how mechanically skill you are (all methods require a chrono). 1 use a more powerful gas( not a bad idea to have a variety of gases for different ambient temperatures). 2 fit an adjustable NPAS (would be my choice). 3 change the knocker valve spring to release more gas per trigger pull (no on the fly adjustment could suddenly find your gun is hot and unusable). 4. probably best way to get consists power would be to fit HPA valves to the mags( but HPA).

I though the HFC versions were based on the old KSC system not their current system 7 and so not compatible.

Well they were cheapest for PTS recoil mid caps. So ordered. So far email confirmation up dates have been good.

KSC=KWA=ASG all parts are cross compatable.

As the title says anyone bought from Empire airsoft. having been let down by airsoft direct saying they have in stick what they don't would like a bit of feed back before I place an order.

Try searching Google by part number. But most likely you are ordering abroad. UK retailers are extremely poor for parts support except for the more common guns(even then not great).

honestly yes 30m is bad 50ish meters should out the box performance. however there is no point doing anything until you have actually used it. when you get it clean the barrel. get several different strengths of gas(temp will effect performance) get a crono, a couple different weights of bb and set the gun at an actual measured range and see which gas/bb combo gets you the best performance at sub legal power limit

is the suppressor screwing on straight. if its misaligned that would cause random flyers. also worth checking that the exit hole in the suppressor is large enough and actually in line with the barrel. i can't imagine that that there is an air vortex issue as the BB is ahead of the pressurised air.

WE are good for spare part support but you will most likely have to order from Asia. £130 is an ok price but you could end up spending more than buying new you are looking about £50 just for a mag.

Made by the same OEM. I do wonder how many airsoft manufactures actually make guns rather than just rebrand.
