  1. You think that's bad, i used to get a bag each time i was restocking ammo and once a year go mad running them in the m4. Was awesome on the day as long as you didnt think too hard about how much money you'd just sent downrange.... A lot more pallatable with the dragonuv having 160 rounds max (thats if you can even cram 20 into a mag, 15 is when it starts to tail off) and the ballache that is trying to reload those mags means i just run them dry then switch to a different gun. Makes engagements interesting when your entire loadout has fewer rounds than most folks mags but that's why the .48's are needed to make up the shortfall
  2. shhhh don't tell the mtp brigade their camo doesn't work in woodland otherwise they might pick something good
  3. Oh good god, that is harrowing. Like i now regret starting this thread harrowing....
  4. i'm the same when running the .48's, especially when it's the dragonuv and the few shots needed to chrono represent half a magazine
  5. it does look odd that the stitching and button loops look relatively uncoloured, but i'm guessing they just didn't take the dye.
  6. stock on 11.1v the fire rate of them jg's is respectable, not fast but not too slow either. tends to be a nozzle with no sealing rings is the main culprit, piston seal on the ones i've worked on wasn't too great either but given they were of unknown provenance can't say if that's something a brand new pew will need. if you have a look here the pics are from the jg box: should probably add a note in about the aoe correction and luke's spacer disk method being preferred these days.
  7. desert dpm someone's dyed green seen a vest done somewhat similar, field expedient and suppose you could argue doesn't look that bad.
  8. i don't understand the question......
  9. np man, if you need any specific info then ask away.
  10. this is in fact the very model of jg that i have. the "recoil" mechanism isn't really, it has a mechanism to slide the charging handle to and fro but in terms of shaking the gun prepare to be dissappointed, it just doesn't have the mass. it's not the strongest built system out there, the stock piston has a cutout which slams into a tooth in the back of the gearbox which to my mind is asking for a stripped piston. that said neither mine or one a mate of mine had (who did run it for a while stock) suffered broken pistons and neither were new when we got them. the recoil mech can be deactivated, you need to split the box to get some parts out but it can be run as a regular aeg. so at least if/when the recoil mech dies you can strip it out and still have a functional gun. the stock components are, ok, certainly the gears seemed decent enough (better than the crap that i found inside my lct box anyway) and the gearboxes run much smoother than by rights they should. just like the cyma's expect the air seal to need a bit of work but once you've done that it shoots very well, certainly mine has always punched above its weight in that regard even with the white plastic hop that looks like it should be utter garbage. bodywork is probably the weakest point, the wood aint bad but it's pot metal city everywhere else so careful not to be too heavy handed, it's a different assembly setup to the cyma's/lct's/e&l's with more pins going on (mainly the outer barrel is pinned to the reciever) so aftermarket hop parts might be tricky (never tried as the stock one was good enough for a backup gun) i'd offer some pics but mine's had that many bodge fixes over the years it's not really gonna be all that representative. tl:dr you do some air seal work she'll sling plastic good enough, the ebb is anaemic at best but at least if it breaks you still have a decent shooter. bodywork is bargain basement but then it's bargain basement price too.
  11. oh the when to clean your barrel is easy: before every game day if you shoot a lot/use a tighter bore in the middle of every game day after every game day every time you can't remember when you last cleaned your barrel
  12. i presume from the scratches you're using a coin? which is how it's meant to be opened, never met one that was so tight it couldn't be manually opened and i sure as shit aint hulk hogan. most of them don't even need the coin- you can do it via fingers sadly the stock answer of "brand new- send it back" probably aint gonna be so good here given novy boy's reputation for customer service, you probably werent pulling the trigger right....... if the above tapping suggestions don't work and you really wanna get it open and really don't give a shit about preserving the finish then a set of channel locks and a coin in a shifting spanner will give you extra leverage, but that's the end-game brute force and ignorance method.
  13. you gotta smoke it first, makes it a bit softer so you can squeeze it into the barrel.
  14. binary, so it's "semi" only for cqb. i'm just taking the speedsofter stereotype to the extremes
  15. RIP Prince Philip

     

    99's one hell of an innings

  16. tbh i reckon there's no real true answer to this both sides have good points and bad points. anyone using silicone oil, alcohol, or nothing at all to clean their barrels are still at least cleaning their barrels. which is better than not cleaning at all which is the trap so many fall into.
  17. if it was a car tyre it'd have done 1.7km no i don't know why i made that comparison either, carry on......
  18. that's an autofill suggestion not a search result
  19. looking good, hope it gains traction. open source is great too as when a site moves/closes good to have it kept up to date, i know there are sites that have been closed for years still show up on google.
  20. and a binary trigger, most likely a titan. even if it's a gas gun running on hpa with no actual gearbox they'll find a way.......
  21. don't we have versions of both of those?
  22. given he had an evaluation thread: so, lets evaluate this package in detail: we take our £170 gun: https://www.surplusstore.co.uk/nuprol-delta-ak21-black-6mm-airsoft-rif-aeg.html mess around with the internals (looks to have had a barrel change at least), but unspecified what's going on, given the specifics aren't mentioned i'd worry about the quality of any work that's been done. add a paint job which might appeal to some buyers, but will alienate everyone who doesn't happen to exactly like that style. add a cleaning rod- literally worthless, guns come with them as-standard and most folks are gonna have a couple lying around. original box- again not much value save for a collectors peice, which a nuprol is not. 4 hicap mags- given most folk will already have mags these aren't worth much to a lot of buyers (especially the mid-cap master race) however in the interests of fairness we'll add that on, given the brand is unspecified i'll be lazy and pick the first result on google for a nuprol hicap at £10 per mag: https://www.defconairsoft.co.uk/product/nuprol-m4-metal-hi-cap-370rnd/ battery and charger- pretty much worthless to anyone who is already setup, but given how this is going so far we'll add that on at £21 for the battery and £10 for the charger (super lazy googling): https://www.surplusstore.co.uk/nuprol-9-6-1600-mah-nunchuck-crane-stock-type.html https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/asg-intelligent-auto-stop-nicd-nimh-battery-charger gun bag- no info to go on here, so we'll do a quick lazy search and find a gun bag for £20: https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/nuprol-pmc-essentials-soft-rifle-bag?pv=8366 overall i'm getting an equivalent package for £261 brand new, with warranty, without any effort put into shopping around save for ensuring that the item is in stock from a uk seller........ i was gonna do a comparison with other sales in that price bracket, but this post is long enough already.....
