  1. oh god oh god oh god.

     

    the mg42 hpa conversion is nearly done.

      As I could only see the "oh god oh god oh god" I thought you may have sharted

      i haven't, but i suspect any poor bugger on the recieving end of this gun might.....

  2. welp, m4 has died, or at least the etu has, think its finally time to cut my losses and go hpa

  3. well, m4 didn't explode.

     

    but computer says no to not firing on auto....

      Lucky for some! My fuse blew first game with it!

      it just goes full auto the moment you connect the battery, think the etu's fried.

       

      however it did get some glorious kills before that happened.

  4. hmmm, mg42 looks scary with an airline poking out the grip.....

  5. hmmm, contemplating if putting an rmr on the hicapa is a good idea or not, plus side being cheatmode aiming, downside being screwing with the snappyness/effeciency?

  6. note to self: next airsoft thing i think of trying "for science", don't do it, it's not worth it....

      I think this warrants some elaboration...

      i summoned satan, turns out he's russian, and very very angry.....

  7. well, just camo netted the vsr, this is almost certainly going to end badly....

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. Well, have me a boneyard vsr now, to fix or not to fix and jump straight into "upgrades" that is the question?

    1. Prisce

      Prisce

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

    2. GemsHD

      GemsHD

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

    3. Adolf Hamster

      Adolf Hamster

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

  11. 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

  12. 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.

  13. 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.

  14. 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

  15. 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.

  16. don't you just hate when something isn't working and you're damned if you can figure out whats wrong with it....

  17. 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.

      what motor you running on 11.1v with etu

      sure it was something a bit too quick for 11.1v

       

      maybe zci 22 tpa...

  18. Well, m4's dead again, gonna have to see what went on it, thinking theres gonna be a lot of metal shards in there.

      Remind me never to lend you a gun...

      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

    4. Adolf Hamster

      Adolf Hamster

      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.

  19. well, barrels are cleaned, scopes and goggles are clean, batteries are charged, mags are gassed and filled, speedloaders are topped up.

     

    roll on tomorrow, think i'll try and get all 3 running and just not bother re-loading between games just change gun.

  20. hmm, quiet day, must... not... tinker...

      Go on you know you want to 😉

  21. that moment when you think your headphones have died and realise your only alternative is your sound amplifying headphones for airsoft....

    1. Druid799

      Druid799

      Works for me ! 👍

  22. well, mg42's back together and firing fine, although i think i might need a more robust regulator for the mag as it may have slightly exploded

  23. Mg42 is back, forgot how massive that thing is, some final test fitting just to check everything lines up and some wiring and it'll be back in action!

     

    Its now super heavy though, the reciever is almost entirely filled with steel

  24. well ir torch arrived, works a treat, now i just need an offset mount and perhaps a killflash

    1. Prisce

      Prisce

      Which IR torch did you get? Struggling to find a decent one for range... I bought a cheap one that doesn’t do naff all.

    2. Adolf Hamster

      Adolf Hamster

      uniquefire something or other, was cheap but i haven't had the chance to properly try it out yet.

  25. hmmm, wonder when gate is planning on making a v6 etu....

      the one where you sharpen the cutoff lever? done that and it still doesn't like it.

       

      might be possible to do with microswitches but that's too much effort lol

    3. Lozart

      Lozart

      Have you tried this? 

       

       

    4. Adolf Hamster

      Adolf Hamster

      the f2000 runs a different cutoff lever to the p90, it's basically the same trigger unit but on the back left side of the gearbox.

       

      to clarify it does run on semi but jams up if you try to double tap, not so much a problem outdoors as you just give em a burst.

       

      ironically the ak has the opposite problem, if only i could average out my issues lol
