-

-
well ir torch arrived, works a treat, now i just need an offset mount and perhaps a killflash
-
well, m4 didn't explode.
but computer says no to not firing on auto....
-
oh god oh god oh god.
the mg42 hpa conversion is nearly done.
am i evil?
-
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.

Fresh carbon free float tube on the m4, and a pair of other guns ressurrected for a freind.
It's been a productive day, so tomorrow i've got destructive to spare
-
anyone know where one could find some nice wooden grips for a we makarov?
-
I am afraid to say that there no mainstream airsoft manufacturers who currently make wood grips for the WE Makarov the close you could get is the brown Fakelite these ones here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WE-Brown-Grip-For-WE-Makarov-GBB-Series-WE0557-/281684074973
You could try to find surplus wood grips for the Makarov but I do not think there were many (if at all) that actually, real steel pistols manufactured that would have had the wood grips.
The American gun/surplus stores might have some but most properly will not ship to the UK.

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.....
-
well, that's parts on order for the ak/m4, the sig still needs a new outer barrel but i've given it a bit of a cleanup, also fixed the hop on the makarov so now it should be able to hop which should turn it into a little demon of a pocket gun
-
Indeed, its a very under appreciated gun imo, sure the real one is underpowered but it's a masterclass in engineering simplicity.
The we version is a cracking wee gun, great gas effeciency, kicks like a mule and apart from the lack of nub its got to be the best hop unit design i've seen in a pistol.
Now i just need to get it a holster and some spare mags....
-
Hmmm, do i risk running a 9v box mag on 11.1v again?
-
todays "i wants it"
a gbb svu.....
-
well, latest build finally got to take some names this evening.
really pleased with how it's turned out, just wish i'd been a bit more conscientious about the ol' fitness over lockdown.
-
Well, the f2000 is sort of feeding now, tappet plate was just a little tight so sanded it a tad, hopefully should wear in a bit easier with use.
Debating selling the luger for a mauser because shoulder stock
And finally the "whats on your mind" box seems to still be playing sillybuggers.
Oh, and i bought an mr2
Long status update lol
Like really long
Ok now i'm just taking the mick
-
I would imagine version 6 gearboxes are shimmed like tight version 3's. Where you shim the box like normal making a note of the shim count either side of every gear. Then just take the tappet and sector with the other side of the gearbox and work out how many shims need to move to that side for the tappet to run free. Then make that adjustment to the other gears and check it's all running nice. It does mean you get some funky pinion engagement at times but it's normally decent enough that it's not going to cause problems.

-
welp, f2000 curse strikes again, now i have to trawl the internet to find a replacement stock hop
-
Ahh tolerances.
Also the we ct25 trigger pack is now my most hated thing to work on.....
-
When your wondering how best to prepare your workmate for dealing with your squad's "humour".....
-
like a bat out of hell he was gone when the morning came
-
Ahh a good solid days pewing, cant beat it.
-
Well, will have to see how the new sling mount on the m4 holds, but at least i found a use for the hicapa rail.....
-
welp, mg42's reciever is bent. dis gon'b fun to fix....
-
why do i do this to myself?
always gotta make a new challenge, now it's trying to extract consistent fps from a gbb.....
-
don't you just love ordering springs that aren't what they say they are, indeed not even close....
-
Can you show us on the fps/Joules chart where the bad vendor touched you?
-
They were meant to be m100's so give or take a bit 1j, they were closer to m130/m140's.
Shame as the whole point of buying them was to have some springs i knew were in the right ballpark rather than my current batch which are all in the 0.5j range.
All i can say is i'm glad i chrono'd it before giving it back to me mate, not sure he'd be best pleased at being told he cant play.

Man is lockdown getting dull at this point....
