you'll want to be using the omega nub with the macaron, 5mm difference in barrel length won't be enough to have any voluming issues so if it's hidden then all good.

yeah it's just washing out on all my screens, maybe got me vibrancy set too high

Hmm, must have a better monitor than i do lol, they all look the same to me.....

does it? teeth look ok to me, although can't see them too well with the lighting?

grease on the piston, and the o ring should be loose on the piston, it seals against the back face of the groove when firing then moves forward allowing air through when being drawn back.

could be it's bedding itself in, the sector gear carving it's own idea of aoe, hard to tell from the pics with the way the lighting is. but mostly that doesn't look too bad (apart from being dry, idk if you cleaned it before taking those pics)

how do you mean bending down and locking up?

every action has an equal and opposite reaction, a black hole sucks time and matter out of the universe, a white hole returns it.

I've never seen one before but I'm guessing it's a white hole

the majority of standard guns the tooth count is the same and doesn't count the initial pickup tooth. when you see for example "15t" "14.5t" and "14t" pistons that's generally referring to wether or not the first regular tooth (ie not the pickup one) has been filed down a bit (aka a half tooth in a 14.5) or removed completely (14tooth as in the above image). this is to allow clearance for the initial pickup stage so the sector gear doesn't hit that tooth on its way round to start pulling the piston back.

there's a difference between doing things that are required for day to day life, like driving to work, cooking, and keeping yourself warm and spending money on frivolous luxuries that you can absolutely go without. we should be incredibly grateful that the cost of this war for us in the uk is being charged in pounds sterling and not blood. individually maybe not, the point is when done collectively all the little slices of fuck all add up to make something of substance. every Russian factory/shop that shuts down due to lack of sales is a crowd of disgruntled workers who won't be fans of how Putin's government has messed up their lives.

have to say i agree here. at the risk of opening a can of worms I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be continuing to buy stuff from Russia given current events. I might like their kit on a technical level, but I don't want any part in supporting the present actions of their government, no matter how indirectly.

hmm, that's not the type that i was thinking of (the one i had was obviously textured) might be worth checking the rear of the track anyway make sure it's clean and smooth. same goes for the cylinder/cylinder head combo, nothing wrong with that on paper (even matching brands which isn't even strictly necessary) you can split the compression check to see which component it is. piston+cylinder (use the palm of your hand over the end, you'll feel if air's leaking past your hand) once you know the pistons good just add the cylinder head and check, then if that's good add the nozzle. i'm thinking atm either piston o-ring or perhaps the nozzle-cylinder head (sometimes they can be off on size)

is the piston head the polymer body variant? because i had one of those (funnily enough in me g&g f2000...) and i found they'd got texturing on the plastic that was right round the whole piston including the o-ring track meaning awful sealing.

have you added anything on the front-end like a suppressor? bb's clipping a muzzle device will send them everywhere.

Congratulations, it appears you have indeed won Mack's. Is there a prize? Feels like there should be a prize.....

from referencing the thread? yes, from the thread itself? no j/k, not all of the jokes are that bad

Those pics looks like the lever is in good order to me? The springs always look like they're sitting a bit wonky. Out of interest, what ammo ye using? Cyma mags are pretty decent but i have had them bind up something shocking with some brands of ammo with resultant feeding problems.

Cmon, you cant expect me to pass up on an opportunity like that

didn't realize you'd seen the jokes thread sorry, couldn't help myself....

tbf, i didn't think it was breaking any particular forum rules/suspicious. just a high asking price which isn't really an issue (beyond getting a roasting in this thread). this is absolutely true, you're perfectly entitled to ask whatever price you like, however the purpose of this thread is to give prospective buyers a fair picture of what they're potentially buying. it's a novel approach compared to other forums but it seems to work out. the relevance of the scope is that it's the only thing that appeared to be added to the bundle (insofar as it appeared in the pictures, insinuating it's inclusion). an expensive optic would of course add value to the overall package and hence turn a high asking price into a perfectly reasonable asking price. identifying it as the same rif is important to rule out that you hadn't, for example, purchased the gun from strykerles and were now selling a completely different, albeit superficially similar gun. basically that we weren't doing this: and mistaking you selling a g&p limited edition gun that merely resembled the a&k you'd bought from strykerles which would change our opinions on the asking price. as above, the scope being pictured in the advert insinuated it's inclusion in the bundle. often when people are selling guns sans-optics they either remove the optic to take pictures or specify in the advert "optic not included". i wouldn't worry so much about it, we generally avoid political talk on here so folk gotta get their drama from somewhere good man, hopefully you can find a buyer a bit easier now

D'oh

reckon you're right now i think more about it. been a while since i worked on the g&g version, but i do remember the hop unit being a custom setup, which would go with the shorter box.

yeah, maybe he meant g&g? i've not seen enough of both platforms to positively identify although my impression is they're both decent enough externally such that after a bit of external wear and internal modding the oem is probably not that relevant. iirc the g&g uses the v2.5 box whereas the a&k is a standard v2, although i half expect to be corrected about that.

true, but it's still a shady move. public safety announcement, basically link your original ad and point out that without detail on the scope it can't be determined if the £280 extra he's asking for is justified.
