That's the next thing fo me to take a look at. Hope to get it functional , 30 round mags so it'll only count down to 65 but I can live with that .

Any update on this 1st commando ?

Real steel style, my GBBR's are the same.

That's seen some abuse !

Thats weird, wonder if it's a nuprol thing. Ive fitted the Angry gun L119 A2 front rail to both a WE GBBR and an aeg and than only comes with 1 barrel nut. Might have used a single shim behind it on the GBBR's from memory but thats all I did.

Needs a better name, cos the abbreviation of NAF isn't really selling it ! 🤣

That's certainly the route I'd go if I had access to a lathe. May yet end up doing it that way as I've still got a spare barrel. More for the purpose of supprting the body tbh, everything is solid on the current mock up which is now cycling fine.

How old is it ? if you've only just got it then I'd send it back. Certainly on my G18 the trigger doesn't release the hammerif the slide is off. As I recal the last Raven 17 I had on the bench had the same issue of the hammer getting stuck down. If you decide to replace the hammer unit , the WE one fits the Raven , however the last Raven 17 I had apart needed a WE G18 hammer unit.

I'd do that , save buying mags untill you get your UKARA and order your first RIF, then get mags to match,

Those guns are some sort of M4 , M4 mags should fit. Whilst most are not model specific there are some that are , but you should be ok with any generic M4 mag. Can you not take a bottle or bag os BB's out with you during the game and then just refill the mag that comes with the rental ?

Probably easier to start from scratch and reshim the whole box tbh since the shimming of any 2 gearboxes is never quite the same . There are quite a few decent tutorials on youtube . Have a stab at it, there are folk on here who can advise if you run into serious issues.

I've started a build thread of sorts for the Pulse rifle in the gas guns section 😁 I've put a couple of pictures of waht I have done to secure the hop in a build thread thing in 'gas guns'

The body fits pretty well, I've had to take a little bit off it in certain places where it was very tight, still making adjustments to that but the first proper mock up looks decent. The round counter sets to 95 when the mag is in as it should. Small micro swith and circuit board fits into the top of the mag well. I've yet to solder up the sensor that should count it down as rounds are fired. This fits into the front of the outer garrel inside the triangular support. I've now added the stock to the mock up and that works fine (although it wont retract fully because of the angle ally on the upper) The gun cycles but sticks on the mag occasionally, this doesn't seem to happen outside of the body so when it's apart again I need to see if something is affecting the mag position slightly. It's very much a work in progress with lots of things to solve along the way and going to be a longish project but I think the cool factor when it's done will be worth it.

As my GBBR pulse rifle build seems to be of interest to a few I thought I'd do a build thread sort of thing. Bear with me , I dont do 'tech' so the order of posts and pictures might well be a bit random ! I'm starting with a WE Thompson that I've been gifted. It's seen better days and came a cropper when an hpa experiment went very wrong, however I should be able to sort it given time. The upper reciever has cracked in a couple of places so I've ordered a replacement. Untill that arrives i've done a very rough and ready strengthening job with some scrap angle ally. Looks a bit frankenstein, but will hold the upper together for now which means I can crack on and get everything mocked up then fit the repacement when it's in pieces for final prep and paint. What I started with Snow Wolf body kit, there are lots of bits in the box ! Very basic strengthening job to hold the upper together for now. You can just see the cracks. The puls rifle outer barrel mounts via an aluminium adapter, on the aeg this also mounts onto the hop unit extension. The holes on the side of the block take M3 bolts that also secure the front brackets to the body. I plan to drill and tap the botom of the block and secure it to the handguard extension on the tommy to help support everything although it seems pretty robust just bolted to the body. In order to hold the hop unit and inner barrel into the GBBR upper I chopped the mounting lug off the spare barrel that came with the Thompson. This them mounts and secures the hop / inner in the standard fashion. If I had access to a lathe I would have shortened and turned down the outer so it would fit the mounting block in the way the aeg one does.

Sorry missed the bit about the hop ! The base gun I was gifted came with 2 outer barrels the original and a steel one. I've cut the boss off the original that the hop unit fits into and installed that back into the receiver. At the moment the large block that holds the outer barrel is secured by its bolts through the body . I plan to drill and tap into the block so I can bolt it to the bar that would hold the front hand guard on the thompson.) That is fixed perminantly on my base gun due to the damege it recieved before it came to me. ) probably not strictly necisary tbh as everything feels very solid , but might as well. I'll get some pictures of it when I strip it back down.

Yep, that'll do it 😂 I'll take a load of pics when I strip it down Certainly plan to do something with it. I'm wondering about one of those micro launchers that sit under a pistol at the moment, but that's liable to change yet 🤣

The body kit is the Snow wolf one, I did find a set of (very) basic instructions on line . But If there is interest in the build I can take a load of pics when it's back apart and do some notes .

First mock up with the GBBR thompson. The base gun needs work yet to get it running properly, but fits OK Ammo counter resets when mag in

You made the point that you are aware of the law on power , but were asking for recomendations on a spring that would break that law. Maybe a thread that asked about converting your gun to a DMR would have been more apropriate and stating that you intend to semi lock it before upping the power would have rung less alarm bells. This is a decent forum with good people on it , but none of us are going to intentionally help you break the law .

As above, put an M150 in a full auto capable gun and you've got a section 5 firearm. Or have you locked it to semi auto only ? If it's for proper target practice on your own land an air rifle is a much better option. Did you ever buy the chrono you were talking about after you were made aware of the 1.3j legal limit on your previuos thread ?

Couple of pictures from last week, pretty much my standard rig. Army surpless clothing ,DPM this time, basic plate carrier (cant remember the brand) loaded with surpless stanag pouches. Topped off with the L119A2 GBBR and my G18 in a belt holster. Sometimes I run mtp, or Auscam or a mix of any of them, but otherwise the setup remains consistant unless I'm running one of the 249's then I dont bother with the carrier.

Shouldn't matter much which way round the main spring is tbh. Might have a very slight affect on fps but should not cause feeding issues. Did you check the compression iwhen you had the gearbox apart ?

Was this happening in the safe zone ? 'cos anyone doing that should be banned imediatly

Just got to decide what to do with the grenade launcher. Cut down shotty ? one of those mini grenade launchers intended to go under a pistol ? moscart launcher ? not sure about that last one as I want to keep it looking correct.
