possibly the nicest AEG i have ever held.

Nerf MA40 to GBB conversion begins. AAP-01 fits after removing some internal supports. . AAP and MA40 hacked up some more and the AAP is bolted to the left shell. Nerf mag hack up and spaced to fit the AAP mag. Long way to go got to figure out a mag release and charging handle, I may put a larger pistol grip in.

Thanks for the heads up. the lack of mag availability was stopping me getting an MP5A5. placed the order Monday mags turned up today. so i have mags before I have a gun. that's on the way from Wolf Armoires. Other than the TM claw mount anyone suggest a mount that will fit?

Field strip and clean it after use including barrel with a microfiber cloth strip and silicon oil on the moving parts and mag valves. Don't get oil on the hop rubber.

What case is that?

Still don't get the point of a GBBR of a real steels gun who's whole justification is recoil mitigation.

Ok makes it easier. Parceforce never covered them under insurance. Flying is possible it's just a case of who you are flying with regards there policy. if you have car its probably easier to take them over on the ferry.

Just to check Republic of Ireland? If so you can't bring your RIFs over importing RIFs with out a defence is illegal. Options are paint your guns two tone, leave your guns in Ireland until you have gained your defence ( gain your UKARA number by attending 3 games at a registered site in no less than two months). If you have a trusted friend in the UK with a defence ask them to receive them for you, Contact a site you intend to play at and see if they will receive them for you.

you won't have insurance. I have sold two guns on sperate occasions shipping out of the UK, both went walkies and i was out of pocket having to refund the buyer.

You are running into on too powerful a gas it's design to run on 144a.

Have you cleaned and oiled the gun at all or is it bone dry?

If you want to fit a wooden stock you'll need to change the lower receiver to one with the correct connectors for a wood stock.

I wouldn't swap springs. They will most likely fit however was KWA 1911s have metal slides so will have higher rated spring than TM so there could performance loss or just straight up malfunction.

Animals should never be in a game zone.

other way round. Star were around 10/15 years ago went away and suddenly there was Ares producing guns that were exactly the same as the Star ones.

They'll sell. People don't buy unusual guns so why would a relatively small company spend possibly 10s of thousands developing a gun that won't be profitable? Go to any site there will be at least a 10 to 1 ratio of people not running an M4/AK.

Those guys won't sell to Airsofters.

High FPS and best aren't the same thing. Also the highest FPS you can have is set by 1st the law and 2nd site you play at rules. It is also good idea to be at least 10% under the site limit as if you are chrono'd over the limit. The best case us, if you don't have a back up and there are no spare rental guns you are packing up and going home.

If you have a TM Hi Capa stick to TM they are the best https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/tokyo-marui-hicapa-51-gbb-pistol-magazine-stainless31-rnd

heavier BBs should help 0.28g but the gun is nothing more than a novelty it's only useful at practically point blank range.

P90 is worth looking at good range for a small gun. you also have the plastic bodied ICS MP5s, I Had a G&G ARP9 which was light weight and handy. However i personally hand no problems but 3 of my team mates ARP9s broke in less than 6 months.

Oh yes!

Over in the land of the free and stopped by Airsoft Atlanta.

Unless you have access to laths, welding equipment and maybe a CNC machine very difficult even then still difficult. There are 3D printable files available for a single action shotguns but they will still a lot of effort to put together.
