  1. having seen the insides of one of those kwa's i wouldn't buy it based on that alone. i find it hard to beleive someone actually looked at a v2 gearbox and thought "hmm this needs more springs"
  2. the f2000 saga continues.

     

    new hop unit- check

    fresh ml macaron with omega nub- check

    feeds every round- check

    actually reliable on semi-check

    fps at least approaching 1j- whoops, we're getting 40.....

      I am getting such bad luck with the ML omega nub combination with lots of rifles recently in terms of feeding, huge FPS drops when hop applied and general inconsistency.

       

       I changed the ML on my T97, L85 and XM8 DMR to a Prommy Purple, Guarder clear and G&G green respectively. Much better dealing and less FPS drops. 

       

      It might not help in your situation. 

       

      My F2000 had a ML nub combo, but it's an AUG style hop unit in the Cyma/JG and hasnt given me any problems.

      i don't think it's the hop rubber, this is the exact same issue she had with the PDI W-hop that was in previously.

       

      normally the feeding issue is the feedlips are too long but she's sitting just perfect atm.

       

      i'll have another crack at it today, if not i suspect she might be features on negative airsoft's next haunted guns show....

      ok, now i'm very suspicious

       

      turns out the piston air seal wasn't quite as good as i thought (seemed to intermittently just not seal) so a new o-ring and now we're firing proper numbers.

       

      makes me worried, something is about to break, i know it.....

  3. there's nothing inherently wrong with doing up a gun how you want, as long as you aren't under any illusions that you are reducing your target market.
  4. This is the key thing, the quality of the paint job isnt the issue. For example i quite like the sigs, and that rifle in its original colours, maybe olive furniture, would be quite nice to me. But that paint job, again, to me, is just something that would need stripped before i'd want to use it. I suppose we're all guilty of it to some degree, i know i have guns that are very niche.
  5. Possibly another case of hoping the camo job adds value.
  6. i must confess i do think the g36's reputation has been somewhat tarnished by its use as a rental gun. although tbf there are a lot of guns people don't like "because they're plastic" regardless of wether or not it's realistic for them to be such.
  7. hmmm, already contemplating a new barrel.....

  8. why do i do this to myself?

     

    always gotta make a new challenge, now it's trying to extract consistent fps from a gbb.....

    1. EDcase

      Get into sorcery instead...

      Its easier 😆

      starting to think that.

       

      trying to set the npas on this dragonuv and it's not fun, might be easy stripped but you gotta to that every goddamn time to adjust it....

  9. Might check them out, more accuracy is always good.
  10. can we please have the categories on here changed to that
  11. its also something worth questioning as to why he's selling it after only an hours use. now granted the ppsh isn't exactly the worlds most ergonomic gun and maybe he just doesn't like the feel of it, but why not specifically say that's why he's selling?
  12. not normally one for artificial weathering (preferr to let it happen natural) but that's looking good.
  13. ahh uk customs, apparently a we 226 hop/barrel set requires a firearms declaration.....

      Sounds like you've had a similar experience like mine!

       

      The cherry on the cake though, was when it finally cleared customs and went 'out for delivery' they shipped it to the wrong warehouse! So I had to wait another day for it to arrive...

      i'm not in a massive rush, it's more the pain in the ass for something so small.

  15. basically all aeg's are functionally a 20+year old design, doesn't make them bad, and from what i've seen of the guts of the new fancy re-designs with rumble packs and proprietory parts i'd rather stick with the tried and proven systems. there's a bunch of options, although as skara suggests if it's your only gun then you should strongly consider sending to a reputable tech rather than have a go yourself. have a look here to familiarise yourself with the clockwork nightmare that is the guts of an airsoft gun: afaik ics stock internals are meant to be pretty good, probably just a clean up and sort the air seal job. skara is on the money that a gate warfet would give a nice boost in trigger response, although installation does require soldering. are you playing indoors or outdoors? that'll affect what you want to be focusing on
  16. Not seeing an airline? Not that i want to look at that picture for any length of time.....
  17. you know what's better than a usp right? hmm, might have to look into that and see, i do have the original box i'll maybe try setting it up and seeing what they say.
  18. what i'm curious about now is did he cut the barrel down himself or can you actually buy aeg barrels that short?
  19. y'see this is why i normally lead with the caveat of "within the extremes" but this isn't a case of performance, this is a case of dafuq dis
  20. i've played this game long enough and i've used enough small secondaries to know barrel length isn't critical, but jesus.....
  21. i'm only seeing 1.5 m4's in there, where's the other half a gun?
  22. So I’ve decided to have a bit of a clearout, I normally have a policy of not selling gats but tbh I’ve reached the point where I’m only fielding a couple of guns so not much point keeping everything. First up is a boneyard vsr clone, cost me £20 for the bare gun deactivated and with a few hand-me down parts she’s just about functional but not any better than a stock gun, maybe a good base if someone wants a shell to start off a build. Mainly got it to try out bolt guns and it’s just not my style. Shooting ~0.8j, consistency is ok just a weak spring for our 1j limit. Reckoning maybe £40 scope included? Next is an even more boneyard cybergun (kwc?) 1911, no mags and don’t let the externals fool you she’s pretty much dead inside, especially the trigger mech. Pretty much only good for parts, or if someone wants a pre-weathered a1 style body No idea what she’s shooting, hasn’t been functional in a long time. No mags. £20 tops methinks? Now we have a lockdown boredom project m4, built off an old king arms receiver, has an e&c qd gearbox and a hodge podge of internals, good compression although reckon the hop-nozzle seal isn’t quite right as she’s about 0.6j. she’s wired for a GATE mosfet, currently has a nanohard fitted but a warfet would be a straight swap. only cutoff lever I had that fit had been modded for an internal mosfet so she’s locked to semi. The red dot has a crack in the lens but is still functional. Again, another parts/project gun. Maybe £75? Finally we have a VLTOR front rail, pretty weathered but very much a solid piece of fore-end. Comes with the flip up sight and whatever bolt-on rail sections I can find. Was always too heavy for my liking: No idea what these are worth, whether it’s legit or a clone, so any advice welcome. First up is a “battle worn” tm hicapa, perfectly functional with 2 leak free mags. Mods wise she’s just running a pdi 6.01 inner barrel and home-brew tritium night sights (they’re not very bright but readable in darkness). Nothing wrong with her shooting wise, I just prefer running a makarov. Was keeping her as a night gun but I doubt I’m going to be doing many night shoots these days: Reckoning £75 all in? Next is a 40mm launcher of unknown provenance, bit rattly and the safety has been removed to get enough movement to fire a 40-mike properly, otherwise perfectly functional if not pretty. Comes with a pair of 40-mikes that have seen some use but pretty good nick and work just fine. I just don’t get close enough to justify the extra weight of a tube…. Reckoning £100 all in (£20 for the tube and £40 apeice for the shells)? next are a bunch of Cyma 140-round ak midcaps, fielded a couple of times but i preferr the straighter 5.45 type: £20 for the lot? And finally we have this heretical beast: She started out life as an AGM mg42, but the split gearbox design made reliability atrocious as an aeg and the receiver was pretty weak (dropped it and she bent). She’s been straightened up and has had a pair of 10mm steel bars mounted inside the receiver to re-enforce it, possibly one of the rare guns where “gun hits don’t count” might have some actual validity. the bipod snapped at the pivot point and has been bolted back together as solid as can be done. She’s running a polarstar jack with a modded sr25 nozzle. To get her cycling well at 1j the inner barrel is much shorter than the original, but I’ll include the original (all 650mm of it). Fps is of course adjustable and for added hilarity she can also be switched to semi-only operation if you want the worlds worst cqb gun. The right hand half of the fcu screen doesn’t display numbers but the programming works just fine (you just can’t tell what the actual number is). Currently she’s setup for firing .2’s at ~1200rpm (to match the original rof) I’ve no idea how fast the box feeds but she should be capable of faster. The original magazine mech was pretty godawful and blew up immediately, much of her life has been spent gathering dust while I figured out how to get something decent on there. Currently it’s a classic army M249 box mag, this is entirely external (it’s a hicap that cuts off when it’s wound up) so it’s entirely feasible to do actual mag changes if you had another box and the box adaptor is removable if you want to revert to classic configuration. Comes with original gurttrommel shell, the plan was to try and 3-d print an adaptor to put the 249 box mech inside it (there is space). Also comes with a polarstar mini fcu and m4 jack nozzle (modded for low-flow but can be reverted to default, it’s just some glue plugging the ports). The sling is a pkm sling. Not the worlds most accurate gun and it’s a pain to carry, but it makes one hell of an impression. Reckoning around the £500 mark? Any tips on how to the hell you post a package that big would be appreciated, it’s a lot of gun and not light….
