  1. list em up for sale on the classifieds here: https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/
  2. i assume tactical means any difference that is aimed to make it more usable in a combat situation/military environment. note "aimed to"=/="actually helps"
  3. why not go with the F2? cheaper, much easier to setup, and something you can swap to a much wider range of platforms than a fusion. when it comes to setting up hpa it's both easy and hard, whilst dropping in a kit and getting the gun to fire is much easier than working on a conventional gearbox setup, tuning it to perfection is quite the mountain. i suggest you have a read through here- familiarise yourself with what to expect: donor gun wise, pretty much pick your poison, whilst a lot of hpa's tend to be built on pretty recievers there's nothing that says you can't drop a polarstar into a plastic raider body. only internals to worry about are the hop/barrel setup, and if you're really chasing perfection things like reciever wobble, but those generally aren't the worst things to replace anyway.
  4. 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.

  5. i feel personally offended by the omission of the makarov from that list. also the 226 has a trigger pull that can only be described as the same feeling as trying to pop a bit of bubble wrap with a hole in it.
  6. ahhh, so you're comparing the op's onlyairsoft one with edcase's justbbguns one? yes that makes sense, carry on....
  7. for me is shows the 2-toned scopeless version at £129.95 and the all black scoped version at £179.99?
  8. also possible nuprol has pulled a "you're using these suppliers for stuff now because we have a big contract with them" always a point of confusion, i always thought ghk bodies were e&l oem, i'm pretty damn sure e&l are doing the bodyshells for bolt's stuff. edit: looking into it think maybe i'm wrong on that point. that's pretty much how i'd sum it up atm- if e&l does it buy that, if e&l doesn't do it then sure go lct.
  9. isn't it 2 different models? the non 2-tone has an optic?
  10. there's camps on both sides, which is why i ended up getting one. but it seems nuprols influence has screwed them over somewhat. but if you want a side to side comparison have a look here:
  11. can't say i agree with that statement one i had was woeful internally and the externals weren't as nice as the stuff e&l is putting out these days. and that's before you even mention RS.....
  12. that's not an ak that's an abomination.
  13. yeah afaik they only do the one model. never really cared about what mag a gun comes with. from what i've heard the earlier models had a habit of shaking themselves apart which they fixed by just putting the mega threadlock on everything. tbh, i wouldn't say lct's internal quality is all that good either, passable but not as good as you'd want given the cost.
  14. yes, there's a little loop build into the left side of the front sight block for the standard pattern ak slings. beautiful guns them, supposedly a bear to work on but good strong recoil.

    Pme

    it's as much a case of why expend the effort as technical possibility. generally the hard limit is a function of the energy limit you have to deal with, so when folks see yanks with their 40rps builds they forget that being able to run 1.5+j in a "cqb" gun is part of what enables that to be practical. not with a gearbox but as hpa i did tinker with the bleeding edge of fire rate up into the 50's when even the mighty cyma midcap struggles to keep up and frankly it didn't provide any benefit that outweighed being "that cunt with the buzz gun"
  16. 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.

      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. Well you already have my suggestion as to what you should do, better alternative than insulting random people on the internet. As for the physics argument, there's a fair bit of "i know more than you" style posting on all sides (and yes i'm as guilty of that as everyone else), but not much substance backing up those claims. If people do genuinely have an understanding (such as the claim of optimum barrel length being between x and y) then why not share not only that claim but why this is the case (as in if you claim to know the physics behind it then explain it). If we can do that without descending into petty bickering, we might just learn something and grow as a community. I know it can be hard to admit when one is wrong on the internet, but i for one would rather have to swallow my pride and change my tune when presented with proper evidence to counter my existing understanding than be spreading false information to people who don't know better.
  18. ahh yes the eternal truth of the exam: you look up for inspiration, down for motivation, and left/right for information
  19. at this point i'm not sure if your objective is to try and alienate as many people on here as you can, or if you're genuinely angry about this. if it's the former then good job- it's working, if it's the latter then seek professional help.
  20. if you feel like you need to take a break that's fine, but might as well leave the door open? had debates on here with folks about issues that i care about a hell of a lot more than this, real core-issue disagreement stuff, then you just move on, no point wasting your energy holding grudges on the internet.
  21. remember borrowing a mosin with the spike bayonet, that'll teach you how to deal with a long gun
  22. eh, i've fallen out with people for dumber stuff
  23. given this is the level of conversation you're putting forward can't say i blame him for not wanting to respond......
  24. mr no face- you realise that even 2 nominally identical guns taken sequentially from the production line will not perform the same right? this is correct, for the level of accuracy an airsoft gun is capable of the effects of barrel length aren't a big deal compared to the myriad other factors going on. it's not that it doesn't make a difference, it's that everything else that does make a difference is going to have a much more noticeable effect. such as mr no-face's rejection of the mk23 as an example for a short barrel being accurate- everything else that's going on inside the mk23 (fps consistency, hop setup, barrel surface quality, ammo quality etc) are easily overcoming the notionally short barrel length. whilst a longer barrel doesn't really help get more range/accuracy, if everything else is going on right it doesn't really hurt it either, granting us the freedom to choose a gun because we think it looks cool knowing it can be adjusted to be as good at lobbing bb's as anything else on the field.
  25. wow, indeed a handy feature. you planning on doing anything to her?
