    it's not strength you need, it's additional hands to hold down those extra sproingy things that some lunatic thought an airsoft gearbox was sorely in need of.
  2. Adolf Hamster
    Ooh yes that barrel is looking much nicer.
  3. Adolf Hamster
    Hmm, maybe not. Tbh i'm not all that good with the gbb stuff, i just know they tend to be very finely balanced so generally the best option is not to mess with anything you dont have to.

    discs are probably spacing, holding it slightly closed compared to standard, at least if it's working anything like the adjustable npas. dropping back to stock would be my go-to given you're regulating the fps externally now.
  5. Adolf Hamster
    Yeah, it'll look like a target rifle, which tbf is a very appropriate look for the platform. Extra points if you go full elmer fudd when fielding it
  6. Adolf Hamster
    Is it bad that i'm surprised? That does look pretty sweet, a good choice
  7. Adolf Hamster
    So is this getting a pt3 or pt5 put on it? ?

    you're talking to a hamster, of course i hate badgers. lording it over us with their natural camo and extravagant burrows, you know how much a badger burrow costs? more than i make in a decade! i can kinda see the logic, although in this case the op's natural leaning seems to be towards the cyma anyway. i mean to me a generic ar variant is a generic ar variant, but then i don't tend to worry too much about the state of internals....
  9. Adolf Hamster
    yeah, although nowhere near as egregious in my book if they still get steered towards something decent.
  10. Adolf Hamster
    indeed, although in fairness an RIF is a not insignificant chunk of one's hard earned and especially when starting out, so it makes sense to reccommend the safest option in terms of reputation. after all, if someone asks for help and gets a bad steer it looks bad on us and potentially puts someone off the hobby.

    i think that's being a little too generous to ups it's more like the newspaper boy dumping the papers on a sunny day to go play with his mates.
  12. Adolf Hamster
    the L86 HDT? heavy detrimental thing?
  13. Adolf Hamster
    owch, you're gonna be stuck with how willing the shop is to go through with cancelling then.
  14. Adolf Hamster
    honestly at this point i'd just be claiming back on paypal. i know hitting the shops in the wallet isn't fair given it's ups's incompetence, but a shop arguing with them over a few hundred orders is gonna have more leverage than joe bloggs on his own could do. plus it'll convince the shops that they need to switch to competent couriers. i mean last international order i placed took 6 days from moscow, which is how long an international order should take when it's handled by a competent company.

    it's always the part that's a bitch to find is the one you lose....

      sadly not in this case, the selector lever bolt for an e&l....

       

      one of those things i dont wanna bodge another brand on either.

      Literally me yesterday while fiddling with my AAPs, one hammer lock thingy springs went flying.

      Now there's a selector plate/cutoff spring in there :D

      such a shame as the build is otherwise finished (internally) now i've got the titan to stop whinging.

  16. Adolf Hamster

    once again we find ourselves with a titan whining about not being able to see the sector gear....

     

    remind me why i decided to double down on this insanity?

      tis the advanced edition, didn't see anything the one above had apart from rankings?

      From what I can see in the GCS you can set the cycle detection to manual for both semi and auto.

      But I don't think it's worth the extra penny they ask for the expert.

    4. Adolf Hamster

      Adolf Hamster

      yeah, of course i don't wanna override the cycle detection cos otherwise what's the point of having a titan in there in the first place :P

       

      i'll strip the box later just check everything's running ok.

       

      in other news the warhead motor is an interesting beast, doesn't "feel" like it should be as torquey as it is but goddamn if it doesn't have insane pickup speed.

       

      this thing has the semi response of a 40rps gun in one that's only actually doing 18, which tbf was sort of what i was aiming for.

  17. Adolf Hamster
    wow, indeed a handy feature. you planning on doing anything to her?
  18. Adolf Hamster
    it has an extra button?
  19. Adolf Hamster
    that's surprising, i mean it's exactly how e&l barrels are attached i'm just surprised an RS works the same way. i kinda presumed given their whole "these are made in an actual ak factory" deal that it would have been fixed, although i'm happy to be wrong on that one.
  20. Adolf Hamster
    ooh she's a beauty. curious how the outer barrel is mounted- is it removable or is it a case of you'd have to dissassemble the hop then pull the inner out the front?
  21. Adolf Hamster
    Hmm ive seen that before, 1911's that happens when the sear has worn. Shouldnt be any issue rounding off that edge although it might be of limited help
  22. Adolf Hamster

    Welp, knew it would be bad, went anyway, expectations exceeded

      the usual stuff that puts you off airsoft combined with a big dose of "urgh not this again"

      Oh, I see.

    in fairness, depending on your personal standard of acceptable performance, all but the most premium brands (and i'm talkin systema not tm) might need tweaking out of the box. it can be as much about stock availability as anything else, some stuff you just can't get over here, or if you can it's so overpriced you might as well buy from overseas. in @Asomodai's example, even if he got stung with 50% of the value of 20 pps shells as charges he's still saving £44 buying abroad, if you ain't in a rush then it's worth it. meanwhile, i'm curious to see if DHL will stick to their claim of delivering yesterdays GS order next tuesday, if they do that'll say a hell of a lot about UPS given moscow is a tad further away than krakow and definately not in the eu......
  24. Adolf Hamster
    yeah i did take a look at the various suits, but gs was already bad enough at sucking my wallet dry for me to get a set just for the jacket.
  25. Adolf Hamster
    yeah, suppose running sleeveless any hope of camo has already gone out the window. not that i'm all that good at the hiding anyway, i'm more the be where ye aint looking type
