  1. ^nice, just wait until later on in life "this mg42 doesnt fit in the back of my car" *buys 4x4*
  2. well, vsr has gone from working to not working, think the sear is worn just past the edge of holding properly.

      well it is if like me you can't leave well enough alone, the moment a gun looks like it'll work for longer than a few weeks i'm like "needz moar rof" or "needz moar accuracy"

      Well I spent around £100 getting an ex Thundermaul JG M4 up n running only to find it was way too hot. I have a spring to downgrade it but I'm dreading splitting another JG gearbox, because when the Sig packed in after half a day from my attempt to degunk the gear box of that JG earwax they use and is now in pieces with a jammed trigger. 

       

      Good job I bought the 417 🤣

      oh god *flashbacks of working on the jg aksu*

       

      some designs are better than others, the mg and the f2000 are absolute dreams to work on, the mg splits into 2 bits and is easy removed, and the f2000 is all modular so you just strip to get the bits you need.

       

      as far as i'm concerned quick release mainsprings and trigger retention screws should be mandatory.

  3. well, i done fixed the vsr for the most part, might need a new mag for feeding proper and a scope mount, but after that it's just tweaking and pewing.

  4. i assumed you're meant to run a seperate mic, throat mic or handheld etc
  5. most of the ones i've seen (including the ones i own) have a standard 3.5mm headphone jack for an audio input, so i'm assuming it shouldnt be too hard to get a radio cable the amplifying ones are awesome, you can hear EVERYTHING except grenades.
  6. Well, have me a boneyard vsr now, to fix or not to fix and jump straight into "upgrades" that is the question?

      Depends if you want to keep it. And which VSR. If your keeping it, upgrades. If not, fix and sell on.

      ^^ What he said, did you acquire said Boneyard today?

      Yep, i've worked on it previously and i know it's been pseudo deactivated and what it needs.

  7. Have you tested the asg grenade? I've seen them around but not heard much about how well they work
  8. Urgh, big days airsofting tomorrow and i'm not hopeful i'll be well enough to play. Damn you biology!

      Well i've heard theres going to be enough tag rounds to make even the americans say "hang on a minute" turning up, plus ofc i'm surely not the only nutter who's bringing a 40 mike

    4. GemsHD

      GemsHD

      Hopefully I can get a shot of the 40 Mike going off

  9. Hmm, should i paint the f2000 olive?

      Have a look at the plastic soldier company war spray range. They have a US tank green and it's lovely. I have an M4 sprayed up with it if you want to see it.

      No. F2000 always looks best black. Just like a Scar H always looks best tan.

       

      I think the only colour change one could get away with in an F2000 is white if you’re playing in the snow like last years Christmas games.

  10. proud owner of 2 new 40 mikes, go ahead, lay the hate on me :P

      sadly i suspect there's not just going to be me running about with 40 mikes, i've also heard there's enough tag rounds to equip the us army going as well :P

      Oh lawrd, this will be an interesting day of airsoft

      it's gonna be madness if they don't open up more area, first time i went there was about 100 folk and i've heard sunday's more likely to be around 200.

  11. anyone know how standardised m4/16 outer barrels are? i'm considering popping an m16 length barrel on my king arms reciever but need to know how specific i should be searching.
  12. so the mg might be getting a little "upgrade" to turn it into something as scary in airsoft as the real one is on the battlefield.....

      Better off with a Land Rover than a MG (especially the chinaman built ones)

      oh no that's the next project, get a turret ring mount and an old landy :D

  13. Are you not thinking of the new york second- the shortest known unit of time in the universe being the time between a traffic light turning green and the cab behind you honking his horn.
  14. no, it's just a lipo charger and it's not set up for charging nimh properly, you need a dedicated nimh charger. it's one of the reasons a proper smart charger is reccommended a lot because those can charge lipo and nimh
  15. look i call it how it is, i call a spade a spade and i call a black pouch a black pouch. i'm not judging them, or calling them inferior beyond certain respects which can be empirically proven. you can call me a nazi if you like but i don't care. to quote R&M "maybe the species that communicate through the filter of your comfort are less evolved than those that just communicate"
  16. well, for the 6th time "i've got the f2000 to feed"....

     

    only problem is it's a little low on the ol' fps and i lack the spring to get it up to par.

  17. look, call me old fashioned fine, but saying that black is different when viewed in a military context is based on fact not prejudice, i have nothing against pouches of afro-european descent but you can't deny they stick out something shocking on the field.
  18. didn't look so much at the price, but am i the only one thinking those pouches look distinctly blacker than olive?
  19. qft i fine it amazing when working on mates guns using their tools and i'm sitting thinking "how did you even dissassemble this!? you know there are different sizes of screwdrivers right!? and how did you not round these bolts using those alan keys!?"
  20. don't you just hate when something isn't working and you're damned if you can figure out whats wrong with it....

  21. so as predicted the m4 gearbox was filled with what was at one point the spur gear.

     

    looks like it's going to be a new gearset time, shame i have no way to tone down the rof.

      lol, it died of being thrashed to within an inch of its life by the need to remind people they were hit.

      well, that and the ridiculous high speed it's running

      Damnit, some notcurnal investigation reveals i've lost the bolt release lever/pin.

       

      However the motor pinion did a right number on the rest of the internals.

  23. yeah, i did always wonder why they decided to do it the way they did rather than flip the action upside down.
  24. ooh damn that's tasty, didn't occur to me but it makes sense the way that things designed you wouldn't need to hpa via the mag (which is my biggest bugbear with most gbb hpa conversions)
