Easier to find the rif than the mags for it 😂

It is though, tbf Awesomly Intimidating 😉

Not just difficult to Chrono….. The shell gas chambers are a royal pain in the hole They eventually leak and become unfixable without new seals , which in themselves aren’t expensive, but shipping from HK or TW costs like 10 X the price of the seal kits, so you have to buy a good few to make it cost effective. I ran mine with over 50 X Power shells , which was almost £500 worth alone and an extra 30 shell casings to make bombing up less of a chore The most cost effective way to gas them is either 88gr Co2 bulbs at £6/7 a pop and only gives circa 15-20 “good” fills Then with all the other paraphernalia to run along with it, I think I worked it out to cost me 37 pence per trigger pull 😂 Heroin is cheaper, but nowhere near as good a fix 😉 But don’t let me talk you out of it, find a used one with a few shells and get it out of your system

I owned one for over a year Chrono was a pain in the proverbial One site I visited , it chrono’d at almost 900 fps, the marshal just laughed and let me use it. I never managed to get an accurate reading due to what you have already mentioned (caps, beebs then wad) coming out and screwing up the reading. There are so many different ways to load the shell as well, which will give you a different result. For example You could (if you were a cnut) ….. Prime the chamber with gas Co2, then use a cardboard wad, and use a few of these for the Chrono check. The wads shreds when the gas is released giving a lower muzzle velocity than if you primed with liquid Co2 and used plastic wads which don’t shred. Giving you a waaay higher muzzle velocity. A lot of sites are wise to this, and have banned their use. Its an awesomely realistic toy to field though

Spent a successful (hopefully) 3 hours, stripping my ngrs down for the first time, to clean and lube internals and fit an Eagle6 m100 spring. Followed the most in depth tutorial, made like YEAAARS ago by Eagle6 Such a breeze to work on compared to the last aeg I took apart which was an ICS. But for sure, some of the tips in the video, made the job so much easier than if I had just jumped in without watching 👌

Couldn’t help myself I had to ask him, didn’t I 😊

Sigh’s……”Gunbillical chord” 😄😘

For maintenance, all I need to do is clean and relube the bcg Clean the barrel properly And use a silicone free gas, just making sure I lube the seals every now and again I find them a lot less fiddly than aeg’s to work on Gearboxes scare the living shecht out of me (probably why I’m still sitting on a spring that I want to upgrade on my only aeg)

@Emergencychimps Yeah, I know where you are coming from I had similar issues when I started off with my ghk m4, I had to learn the hard way and also read up loads regarding tweaks and fixes. (it was actually sold to me as boneyard, but just hadn’t been cleaned or maintained) Feedlip issues, small bits off bb’s smashed into where the bolt rest in battery Loads of things can affect a gbbr’s operation, and if you don’t really know what’s going on and the small issues that occur, it does lead to frustration. More than a few times I had threatened to sell it and get a nice aeg due to issues. Once I had learned my way around it, and the snags, replaced a few parts including discovering micro cracked feedlips (which were replaced with aluminium ones ) I got it running flawlessly. To the extent that I was able to get a game out of it in almost freezing conditions. My Ghk 553 has run flawlessly Fitting an npas allowed me to run it at indoor velocities, this was in January in an indoor unheated warehouse, with snow outside. I think if the OP is willing to put the time in to learn the platform they are wanting to use, and iron out the “quirks” They will have an enjoyable ownership experience Probably like owning a TVR and expecting to just daily drive it But to answer @Reef No, I don’t regret using gbbr’s 😄

TBH, I got into gbbr’s by accident I always run a gbbr when the temp allows me to, but take an ngrs along for just in case……. At the start, I just couldn’t deal with the low ammo count, then one playing day it clicked and all came together, 6 mags saw me through to respawn quite happily and I would just bomb up before heading back out Changing my play style to semi only has also carried on to my ngrs playing too (but using midcaps) I would see if one of your playing buddies would let you try a game or two with a gbbr before you jump in! Ive easily now spent about £800 on mags, for just two gbbr’s so that gets expensive. Then, they do like to run on heavier ammo ( 0.36’s + heavier) so that adds to the cost too, but you are only pulling the trigger when you are almost guaranteed a hit! The immersion is totally different, and well worth it! A bit of extra maintenance, but it’s hardly ball busting and I find it quite therapeutic But it’s definitely worth trying Good luck 👍

I appreciate what @Jez_Armstrong is saying regarding the first photo to be inclusive of the timestamp. I only recently discovered that you are able select the first photo, so I doubt most of the plebs will discover this feature moving forwards. It should simply be on all, doesn’t take much creativity 👍

Yeah, they gotta look pukka too 😉

Hi @bradleyj Fwiw, I play woodland, but have tried out cqb (it’s just to far to travel to my closest site to be a regular haunt) I have an unmagnified red dot fitted to all of my rif’s Ive tried magnified (an Elcan Spectre clone) and whilst the magnification is great for spotting, the eye relief and reduced field of view are a drawback when actually firing. I used it for one game, and went back to a red dot. I prefer using both eyes open so as I am able to use peripheral vision whilst lighting up my chosen target.

TBF, there were a couple of tasty grenades in the bundle I was tempted with 😄

Yup I agree with the Mk23 suggestion if you want to remain stealthy Add a Crazy Jet barrel and a Flamingo bucking along with a Hadron TDC and “I” key and it’ll throw .4’s further than any AEG on the field Or go the noisy route, and get a TM Scorpion A nice lightweight small AEP, which is capable of around 40m and full auto

Might be better asking in the classifieds section

Yeah, Just what my Nan’s ALWAYS wanted

I’d just crack on mate Keep fekkers on their toes 😄

Still works for me if you click the ”watch on YouTube “ link

Zero tolerance 💪
