@Asomodai it's 12:1 and all
as for the style, i'm still not sure, i kind of want to find a barrel clamp to run the 2dp as i'd rather run the normal forend than the current rail+afg combo that's on there atm.
fortunately i'm hopefully redeeming myself with the optics- got a 1p67 on order should keep both camps happy......

@Adolf Hamster I have heard of many reports of some of internals being made of cheese from the Russian FB groups. Finish is poor, O Rings on the Mag are too thick which meant it was hard to fill with gas. Doesn't work in anything below 10 degrees. The parts that you think should be steel are not. This is the opinion of more then just one person as well! Multiple people!
-
yeah, looked up a review from arnies and seems to be there are some issues, but probably not insurmountable. the o-ring on the bbu was too tight but that's good in terms of being a fixable issue.
i'm not a very heavy pistol user anyway so if if i can stuff a ml autobot in there and get a mags worth of .32's downrange i'm happy enough.
edit: need to remember to tag for the notification @Asomodai

Knocker valve for their blowback makarov.
Was trying to figure out why mine kept leaking and realised it had somehow caved in at the front.
Figured if imma try and sell it better to have it as working (well, "worked last time i tried to fire it")
Only place ive found even has it listed is begadi and its out of stock
-
Nah, totally different mechs.
The kwc is basically a 4.5mm co2 airgun conversion which normally comes stupid hot out of the box (mine was downgraded by the forum member i bought it off). Its not even the same as other kwc valves (particularly the 1911 which is the only kwc valve you can find easily)
Only bought it as a winter gun to stand in for the WE.

Anyone have issues with noveske style amps with 24mm thread? Bought one recently didnt come with a 14mm adapter and it aint fitting the jg/cyma/lct ones i've tried.

after several years, finally had to replace a part on the odin

Yeah you're probably right, it is quite a 'load bearing' part, especially at the point at which the clutch essentially disengages when the magazine is full. Having said that, in this design you probably want these replaceable weak points to be able to break, so that you can easily and functionally replace them when need be.
Been thinking about purchasing a 3d printer actually, not really looked into it in much detail or know where to start and at what kinda price point. -
Right, so my brother works at a place which used to be the UKs biggest rapid prototyping / industrial scale 3d printing labs... technically not anymore as they have been taken over by Siemens, so I guess their German now 😅.
They can print with powders of pretty much any material you want, both metals and polymers. Big massive rapid prototypers half the size of rooms. So yeah anything I suggest to him, he throws some elitist shade at .

so, ummm
this is a thing:

and they told me they weren't restocking them either......

why did i decide to try refinishing the makarov with aluminium black, soooooo much sanding......
-
Y'know with all the forum updates recently i'd have thought we'd be able to entice a better quality spambot

hmmm, think i'm changing my opinion on lct....

I've heard enough about lemons from both sides to be fair, only ever purchased/used LCTs but had a go with E&Ls and they've both been great. I think the best bet is to lean to whatevers cheapest and that tends to be E&L now that Nuprol have price hiked the LCTs, fire support is no longer my go to for 'premium' AK shopping like it has been 😐
Can't you just unscrew the hop and push it forward? I'm pretty sure I can do that with my 74u to get at the gearbox without removing the outer barrel, etc.
-
dear airsoft manufacturers
please stop using press-fit pins that require removal for regular maintenance purposes.

Buys gun, gun comes with tube loader
Turns out mags are a pain, you gotta use the tube
Mods tube to fit standard speedloader
This does not work
So now i have to load rounds singly.
This is the definition of hubris

@Rogerborg yep that pretty much sums it up perfectly.
i suppose at least my total ammo capacity of 160 rounds isn't that bad to fill up one by one.....
-
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....
-
why do i do this to myself?
always gotta make a new challenge, now it's trying to extract consistent fps from a gbb.....
-
ahh uk customs, apparently a we 226 hop/barrel set requires a firearms declaration.....
-
welp, f2000 curse strikes again, now i have to trawl the internet to find a replacement stock hop
-
And there we thought bog roll would be the currency of the apocalypse, turns out its omega nubs
-
Just got me combat union hop unit and all i can say is it says volumes about russian fps limits....
