urgh, now i remember why i'm not a fan of the titan. may be great when it's up and working but man that's a lot of cashmonies sitting very close to a lot of things that need *ahem* persuasion to get sat in. it does, although tbh trigger pull in and of itself isn't really the problem i'm wanting to solve.

shouldn't be getting semi lockup on a warfet? main reason i'm doing it, as frivolous as it sounds, is literally because when you fire a burst in auto, switch back to semi and it doesn't have precock...... well, that and i'm extraordinarily bored. yep, because i missed the feeling of being "that guy" now i don't run hpa any more.....

or maybe if it isn't numerous but something eccentric with a bunch of proprietary parts. tbh you want a review it's really tricky. on the one hand reviewers who get sent stuff for free are inclined to shill in order to keep good relations, but likewise if someone's reviewing something they spent their hard earned money on they might be unwilling to admit to themselves (and by extension the world) that it's actually kinda trash. there's also the issue of day-one reviews/unboxings when you can't really get a feel for something, for example i could review a gbb pistol in the middle of summer and declare it the greatest gun ever, but 2 years and a few thousand rounds down the line in the middle of winter it'll be a different story.

Speaking of heresy, beep beep.....

nope that is the seal. the concept is the shape of it mushrooms out a bit when the gas pressure hits it sealing it up against the walls, although they do seem to be somewhat sensitive and easily worn. it should have a very light fit to the nozzle going the whole way down, if the nozzle is bulged it might seem a nice fit at the end but not once it's all the way in. you can get aftermarket styles that look almost like a miniature aeg piston head with a seperate o-ring. maybe a grub screw or a pin? can't really tell from the pic. in theory anything behind the piston head *shouldn't* matter for air seal so unless it's loose/wobbling then might not be an issue. as @Alimcd sayd if you're replacing the bbu might as well change the nozzle as well, just in case it's scored/bulged/had the rocket valve spring snipped.

this is where the tm "you only need 0.8j" argument falls down, energy is energy after all. in a vacuum? actually that doesn't even work thanks to our freind mr magnus.....

tbh for a 1j gun i'd say even 49 is on the optimistic side unless you're talking .4g+ ammo.

sticking is good, should mean it's not leaking too bad there. if you're wanting to blast some heavier ammo then the ml autobot/decepticon is my go-to for pistols with the vsr type bucking. i'm pretty sure it is, but there might be some proprietary stuff mixed in. hmm, unless all 3 mags are short then sounds like that's not the issue. if it's still chucking out a lot of gas from the slide rather than the barrel i'm still thinking it's a leak somewhere around the nozzle, maybe the piston head is worn/loose. or maybe a problem with the float valve. tbh my gbb knowledge isn't massive so hopefully others might be able to chime in with more specific suggestions.

so there are a couple of places you could be getting gas leaks. the easiest to check is the hop-nozzle, if you pull the mag and very gently draw the slide back the nozzle should "stick" in the hop for a bit (although not to the point where you can lock the slide all the way back and it still sticks) aftermarket hop rubbers like the maple leaf autobot/decepticon have a little metal c-clip around one end to give a bit more pressure when sticking to the nozzle which can work a treat (although there is such a thing as too tight) the second 2 aren't so easy. first is the piston head which depends on the manufacturer, some use o-rings others use shaped pads and sometimes it's a mini piston head similar to an aeg, this could be worn. if the gun's spend a lot of time firing heavy ammo on high pressure gas there could also be a bulge in the nozzle cylinder which could mess things up as well. iirc (read: citation needed) the combat master is cloned tm internals so shouldn't be too hard to find a suitable replacement. second is the mag-nozzle interface, this is a tricky one to really measure as it's not possible to really observe too well with the gun dissassembled. one thing to check is that the mag catch isn't worn as the mag sitting slightly lower down than normal means that gap will be giving a leak. if holding the magazine up into the gun cures the gas venting then this might be your problem. there are aftermarket gas routers by the likes of 9-ball although which exact version you want to use i'm not sure. this is assuming the hammer spring isn't too weak as has been mentioned, and there's no dirt/grit blocking the system that would give a light strike. the other possibility is the float valve has a weak spring to it, closing too fast. however given the thing is spewing gas i'd check the seals first and see what that does.

I dunno, whack a big enough can on a dragonuv and a body bag is probably gonna be about the right overall length.

I vaguely recall him mentioning during first lockdown he was staying away because he didnt like being reminded he cant play.

Even as a tester try without a mosfet to see if that really is the issue. Its why i tend to reccommend nanasr for basic mosfet duties.

Hence the quotation marks around "acquired" Feel for the op if he's being genuine with what he's saying, but this is the kind of thing i'd do if i was the kind of person to use alts.

doubt, you ain't getting remotely near that on any hardware that's kosher for irish fps limits. not gonna lie, my initial suspicion was someone "acquired" some airsoft kit and wanted to see if it was worth anything, now i'm 50/50 between a kid or a troll.

just need to get @Rogerborg back now.

nope, it's supposed to prevent overspin, but you need a fast setup for that to be a problem.

Guess it depends on the scenario but the theme with most post apocalyptic stuff is keeping something operational with limited to no manufacturer spares and stacking repairs on top of repairs because you havent a hope of replacing it.

What exactly are you asking here? Because that's as unanswerable as me saying "i have a computer is it any good?"

mp5? opens up the backstory to police armouries as well as military.

Been years since i played it cant remember what the controls were like.

Imma place a bet that it's the active brake stopping the cycling too soon.

a man that can make a revolver look like a submachine gun

funny that's exactly what i got it for initially ended up using it 90% of the time and very rarely using the actual scope.

i think a lot of it is based on the reports from the likes of negative airsoft. tbh my sum total experience with specna is seeing one of their very early models in the local brick and mortar and was quite impressed at the exterior quality, but afaik that's not the problem so much as the internals being a bit more sketchy. of course as with all brands you have your monday morning guns, your middle of the week guns and your 5-minutes to closing on friday guns. for example as much as the humble cyma ak is espoused as the immortal gat with it's legendary reliability proven by the number of beaten to crap rental gats that still somehow shoot, i've also seen them strip pistons within half an hour of coming out the box.....

it's not a field i'm particularly well versed in, but i've had one of these for a while: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Canis-Picatinny-Shooting-Hunting-（Black）/dp/B07V1LWL1M/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=canis+latrans+3+moa&qid=1613492056&sr=8-1 and it's been pretty decent in terms of clarity/parralax, and you can lock down the adjustments so it holds zero. not sure on the mounting but it looks very similar to the rmr type (2 screws holding it to the base)
