  1. https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/pistons/cyma-15-tooth-reinforced-piston https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/pistons-heads/gearparts-pom-piston-head would be a pretty basic (but not bad either) replacement. if you wanna be fancy you could grab some of the aoe spacers, but for a low stress build probably ain't gonna matter too much. potentially if the nozzle doesn't have a sealing o-ring then might be worth looking into getting one (just be sure to measure the length proper), will help air seal (and by extension accuracy) if you're happy with the speed as-is no point changing gears/motor etc. apart from that it's all in the assembly, shimming, air seal checks etc.
  2. oh the tracer unit in it weighs almost nothing. reason it's so heavy is because the walls of the can are no joke 4mm thick steel.
  3. While that might look like a cheap knockoff red dot, it's actually an ion sight. Explains why it's so expensive, never really took off as a technology due to the ion emmissions causing some strange side effects including delusions. Apparently the problem was incorrect polarity but you know what its like once a story gets in the media. Theyre pretty much collectors peices these days.
  4. I wouldnt worry about it. Unless it's an especially heavy can (looking at you lct pbs4) or you're regularly knocking it into things. What's more likely is striking the can purely because the can isn't well made tolerance wise (still looking at you lct pbs4) or the barrel thread is a little off.
  5. shouldn't be too much of an issue. if the bb path/outer barrel is deviating enough for that to happen then there are bigger problems at stake
  6. i've not seen one. it's related to the original length that the gun is gassed for, so adding 100mm to a pistol is gonna have a bigger impact than taking 100mm off a rifle. if it's for cqb tbh i wouldn't even bother changing it, effective range of a tm pistol is more than fine for those kinds of distances.
  7. fair enough, thought it might have been intentional and by extension amusing
  8. tell a lie, think it just took a while to update. did he really pay us to use a german (austrian?) banner on a uk forum?
  9. is it bad that i didn't even notice? think i forgot to whitelist this place after my last rampage of installing every damn adblocker i could so i could read the 4 lines of meaningful text that constitutes a news article these days.
  10. i tend to run first come first served. convo goes dead for more than 24h it goes to the next guy in the list.
  11. could you not just adjust the colour balance on the monitor?
  12. it does look very handy to carry around. just need a deer stalker, and a pipe now
  13. you know i think this might just atone for your previous m4 stock related sins. that stock really does the world of difference.
  14. 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.
  15. the wind isn't so much the problem- you can deal with the wind. it's when you've put all the time, effort, money, skill, learned to tech, learned to shoot, learned to sneak and lined everything up to get that perfect angle. the expensive .48g geoffs bb sails through the air it's backspin perfectly canted to counter the crosswind and strikes the target. a perfect and beautiful shot. only for the target to shrug and continue playing anyway.....
  16. the answer is in the statement- if you care about that last 5% in this case i agree that the ZCI is the more sensible option, as that 5% isn't going to be noticeable without the rest of the pew's internals also being brought up to that level, with all the cost, effort and skill requirements that entails. it's the diminishing returns curve in action.
  17. this will depend on many factors. a lot of good parts are sold by @ak2m4 at least for the more universal aeg internals, however depending on your gun, and the aims of your build you're almost always gonna need to look at multiple stores to get everything you want/need. if you tell us what gun you want to mess with, and what you want to improve about it (and how far you wanna go down the diminishing returns curve) then we can be a bit more specific with recommendations.
  18. 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.
  19. I'm not. Which along with back emf is another reason i'm banned from the electrical labs at work
  20. 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.
