    Had the m14 chrono'd today...
     
    1.4J on .25s. With joule creep (for when I use .4s) and better airseal with the new hop up and barrel setup when it arrives from the US, I think it'll be firing incredibly nicely.
     
    Now Evike, get my stuff in stock and send it to me!

    Ok, But seriously, V7 gearboxes can go to hell

     

    Took me 7 hours taking the m14 apart and installing all the new shiny pieces and I'm paranoid I've done it wrong because the last few BBs in the magazine don't appear to feed properly (but the rest do? Will need to chrono on Sunday)

     

    I hate AEGs. Springers and gas are way better 😭

      I agree, but try a version 5 for a barrel of laughs (TM Uzi)

    Been working on converting my TM m14 into an m21 and all the externals are now in and installed (though I will likely put a suppressor on instead of the flash hider because I like suppressors). Still need to fit the internals to upgrade the power and accuracy to DMR levels and I am no tech, so we'll see how that goes. Also, stock cyma m14 with imitation wood stock below, for Vietnam games (and because it was cheaper and easier than getting a replacement stock for the TM). Will have to remove the magpuls though for that

    Lightweight Viper backpack to carry extra stuff if needed. Also, new sidearm to go with my 1911 (might run some games with just two pistols. DUAL WIELD!) And yes, I've put in a crazy jet tightbore, maple leaf autobot 50 degree bucking and hadron H plate. Mags are STTI so I can run green gas without the mags being all leaky, plus they're cheaper. Planning on running .4s in this.

    Not a RIF, but I just ordered a set of BULLE US woodland and woodland marpat (trousers, shirt and boonie), as well as a molle drop leg platform. Also a chicom chest rig for an upcoming Vietnam game, because why would I want to play as the Americans when VC sounds like so much more fun. It's my first ever Vietnam game

    Putting together a super DMR / semi-auto sniper.

      "In addition, I don't think that I will lose much range, as range and accuracy is often dictated more by the hop up and barrel than the power of the spring"

       

      Accuracy, yes, effective range, yes, but the BB doesn't care about our feelings. Once it's out of the barrel, it only knows its linear and angular velocities, and 2.3J is twice as Jouley as 1.1J.

       

      Physics says ~40% more range from twice the kinetic energy.

       

      Change my mind. ;)

      I can only go up to 1.6J for a semi-auto, but I get you on this. Plus, the higher power of the spring will allow me to use heavier ammo, which will also increase the effective range as heavier BBs lose momentum slower.

       

      Basically, I am tossing up between having a higher performing rifle or the flexibility of no MED. At the moment I'm leaning towards going for more power and just relying on my pistol a bit more.

      The ultimate dmr is an mk23 with a carbine kit.

    Not cheap, but very worth it! (Don't mind my awful photography) TM416 Delta recoil shock with some PTS mags

    Recently started karate and jujitsu and I'm loving it. Along with airsoft it makes me feel like a badass 😎 For longer term hobbies I'm a big tabletop RPG player and GM and I tend to write fiction, mostly sci-fi or cyberpunk. Ties into airsoft somewhat as I am always having to consider how firefights would go down, the correct positioning, target priorities etc, but it's a loose tie in at best.
