  1. It's pretty decent . Does suffer with cool down if you go to gung ho , used it last time I played for a game , just went empty as game over called . I have now fitted an hpa adapter in place of the fill valve as I am now running my 249 on hpa on occasion. Took it out to test this morning and that combination is good , and ideal for cqb etc. I like the stick mags normally and wouldn't hpa those , same for the L119s etc .
  2. As suggested above, the old trades can be filled . Jim at LCs who does all my L119 engraving and machining work fills the old selecter markings first. Most recent A2 build Once painted
  3. Does the fps go back up when an original TM mag is used ? If so , there's your issue, the aftermarket mags.
  4. The S&T does use a V2 box with a very long nozzle and a proprietary hop unit . Mine had crazy low fps when I got it too , along with feeding issues . I did get it behaving eventually , but cant remember what bits I used . I do recall that there was bugger all compression in the piston and cylinder though , so I'd start there by doing a compression test .

    Has anyone managed to get a replacement feed for the CO2 mag if their line has burst ? My setup is working fine , but a mate wants me to make him up an adapter so he can run hpa now and then but not make it a perminant thing . Let him use my modified CO2 'block' and it ran faultlesley all day on his hpa rig . Although he was going through a bottle a game ! I'm only after the 'block' that clips into the magwell , but happy enough to buy the complete thing if anyone knows if they are available.
  6. I've got a couple of replica 552s and replica T2 on some of my GBBR's . They all work fine and hold zero .
  7. Any particular reason you dont load the MP7 mags from the bottom ? I find that easy enough , pull the follower down then use a normal loader . I do have a little puller for the follower , but usually forget to use it !
  8. What brand is the M4 ? If its a WE then KYairsoft should be able to supply pretty much anything you might need.
  9. KS1 looks decent , but that 'L119 A2' is, at best, a 'looks a bit like' Ok for an inspired by loadout .
  10. Its a while since I had a mates SCAR apart , but I think that looks right. I'd suggest taking the selector out and flipping it end over end and try re installing . See if that does it.
  11. My DE has a real steel ERGO grip on it
  12. I have 2 WE based L119's , I also now have the DE N4 . There are pros and cons to both. Available upgrades for the N4/MWS are certainly plentiful. However it doesn't kick as hard or frankly feel as robust as the WE's . It's a nice platform though , hop adjustment is certainly quicker than the WE . Mine has had the usual barrel , hop ruber and nub replacement . My WE's have had the same , barrel , rubber and nub . Beyond that they are stock, I know some folk decry WE internals , but I'have never had a failure in either of them (or any of my other WE GBBRs) that wasn't down to user error. Thousands of rounds through them and the bolt locks are still working fine. And most real steel furniture fits the WE, MWS I believe is a bit more selective. Mine have run happily down to under 5 degrees with careful mag management , any colder than that and I'm not playing ! I honestly dont find anything in it in terms of range and accuracy betwenn the WEs and DE Go with whichever you fancy, based on my experience you wont be dissapointed with either.
  13. Sounds like it could be.
  14. Do you mean the crenalations at the front that fit into the back of the hop unit ? If so , losing most of those wont stop the gun from working properly . Possibly losing all of them wont actually cause an issue. One of mine is missing a pretty substantial section after I got heavy handed sorting out a broken up BB that got wedged in there after a miss feed .
  15. Possibly, but I can only speak from experience . Mine have all been solid and continue to perform well with no issues. Ran the L119 A1 last Sunday untill the cold got to me and I called it a day. Gun ran flawlesley. What actually 'broke' ? the casting itself ? nozzle ? nozzle spring ?
