the combat union hop is pretty good, got one recently and from what little testing i've been able to do performance wise it's on a par with the MAXX unit's for the m4 if not quite as shiny on the finish. the barrel locking mech is massively over engineered, makes you wander what russian fps limits are like...

it saddens me they don't deliver to NI

Isnt that like the 4th time that ads come up now lol

Your secret is safe with us

is it bad that every time i see a post like this the first thing i do is see what they've got for sale in case i can post it up as a joke?

it does: ⬛ yes that's a boring grey box joke....

well the parts list certainly checks out, although i'm gonna have to cite my last reply about that not being a guarantee of performance. also gotta love openly advertising it running a 3j spring....

nothing. there's no limit to how "upgraded" a gun is and the number of expensive parts in a gun isn't a guarantee of performance. therefore the term means whatever the person selling it thinks it means.

That selector lever/trigger has a nasty habit of sticking in the mind......

so this un's a doozy.... and here's a strong argument for keeping access to expired ads.....

the price that thing went for it's probably close enough

No your not, im very much a fan of the forum environment for buying stuff.

i'm wondering if he bothered to actually trim the bucking and rotate it or if he's using a flat nub with a standard bucking.

also says he's got an m100 in it, so that's one hell of an air leak. an almost textbook example of the difference between upgrading a gun and shoving a bunch of shiny bits in it hoping it'll make it shoot better.

"UPGRADED TO FULL SPEC RUNNING 0.84 JOULES SHOTTING LIKE A LASER!" either that's a typo or he doesn't understand what "full spec" means. don't get me wrong i'm no stranger to getting sub 1j guns to lob bb's a decent distance, but i'm under no illusion that the only way i'm getting away with it is because everybody i'm shooting at has the same restriction.

Agreed. If i was going to upgrade a gun that much i'd at least bother to know what parts are actually in it and who did the work...

"some sort of hardened gearbox shell"

Safe and brrrrt?

another example of misplaced value in terms of the custom paint job.

your guess is as good as mine

you do have a point there.

wtf did i just read!?

Not sure i'd call sub £500 daytona's dreamer territory?

smersh smersh smersh smersh..... i'm not exaggerating when i say my smersh supplanted every other rig i had overnight. that said, the beauty of an ak is it's just as valid to rock up in jeans and a t-shirt with any old chest rig.

that's pretty much what this thread is about. the problem with folk teching their guns either professionally or at an amateur level is there's no standardisation or qualification, pretty much we have to rely on reputation. it's why learning those skills yourself is well worth the effort, means you can afford to risk it and fix any problems yourself.
