@Steveocee I'm converting over some 128mm inner barrels to GBB this weekend, first one is for a friend with a GBB Vector so if it's works out will be an interesting offer for the AAP perhaps.  I imagine the PDI version is big bucks.

@ak2m4 £42 https://hicapahub.co.uk/products/pdi-stainless-6-01-inner-barrel-129mm-5-1-capa-aap01

The O ring is somewhat of a selling point though IMO.

thanks man, I find remarkable that they're selling a barrel for £42 and not even telling you the quality of the polishing inside!  Don't mind me, just ramblings after spending too much time obsessing over RA polishing levels 🙂

Have you had a look at the Acetech Quark K (or Quark R) shotgun tracer? Fits the KSG only iirc.

Not really. T238, 5KU Blaster, PCU, Acetech Quark. It depends how much you will to spend on it and what barrel size you're after.

I should have elaborated, it's for a cyma sgr12 so it's either the pcu which is a bit pricey or the t238 which I can't find anywhere 

Make it a fun size snickers and you can still sod off 🤣🤣

Don't be too hasty, negotiation is a life skill you never lose... I'm offering a WHOLE pkt of funsize, think of the countless (ok, 13 funsized chidren that could run away screaming from your door on the 31st)

He doesn't need to wait until the 31st to have screaming children running out his door.

I'd suggest skipping Big Dragon (Chinese rebrander), and go straight to the manufacturer's factory store on Aliexepress, ChiHai Shenzhen. You can literally buy the exact same motor, complete with branding if you like, for cheaper. You can also get just about any motor you want, and not have to deal with arbitrary ratings like "M140" and "M170".

Oh, nice, thanks. This one?  https://chihaimotor.aliexpress.com/store/3096049

Aargh, too much choice!

Yep! They’re the OEM for the vast majority of airsoft motors on the market, so whenever you see SHS or Big Dragon or Archwick, it’s almost guaranteed that it’ll be cheaper from ChiHai directly, as those companies just take the product and up the price.

If you cant be bothered to buy something specific, use any sort of deodorant like Lynx and it should break up the sticker residue and use a plastic implement to remove the gunk. I have been doing it for years. (No the smell does not linger on plastic!)

thanks for the replies, I'll look into the de-solv-it

In a pinch, WD40, followed by a soapy rag to wipe the oil residue off

Facking Gumtree rules. Twenty "Still 4 sale?" stock responses, then zero followup.

Fantasists. Fantasists everywhere.

They didn't even ask you to save it for them until payday?

lol no, just asked if it works ok and what needs doing with it

I've put the warhead in and it sounds better @Lozart but it still sounds very tight and takes too long to fire if you know what I mean

may have to crack the gearbox and take a look, seems like it's a split type gearbox so shouldn't be too hard :D

And the marui mags do feed 😁

i will be for sure, got my new WE xm177 to try out

I'll be the guy in the russian load out with an svd 😊

is it any good there? i was gonna go but i went ace airsoft instead

yeah it's very good. very tight and can be quite intense when there's a full house

unfortunately yes

seems they didn't have many though, now showing as sold out

Sold out already. £700 is ridiculous though, my latest project is cheaper than that with all aftermarket parts included

That's capitalism for you. How they say it? Price/value always depends on how much someone willing to pay for it.

Airsoft is everything but realistic.

Personally, I love my GBBRs, but the way I play I don't shoot that much (coming from that sniper role I'm used to not shooting much). I've converted one of my friends to GBBRs, but he's like me and doesn't run into ammo problems. It's very dependent on what you want to get out of the game. Mid-fight reloads, pistol transitions and ammo tracking are something I enjoy and I'll often be switching between my mags to make sure the freshest is available at all times, adding a fun element to the game for me, but it's very much not for everyone. Also, I love how it feels to shoot, as you get more of a kick than with a NGRS, and knew that I was going to convert to GBBRs as soon as I fired off my first mag from my AKM on the range.

However, if you want to play airsoft with the focus on shooting at other players and getting kills and doing objectives and winning games, GBBRs are not the way to go. For the price of a MWS plus mags, you could get a pretty nice NGRS build with all the bells and whistles and a rig full of EPM mid caps and probably still have change left over.

"Airsoft is everything but realistic."

Never said airsoft is realistic I said GBBR is the most realistic thing you can get right now because certain things function exactly like on a real steel firearm. But if you don't count those features gbbr is simply too expensive and for the same money you can get better perfomance with HPA or a tuned AEG.  GBBR is extremely fun don't get me wrong but I could never justify to spend that much money on a gun and not just because I can't afford it. xD

Sounds interesting!

What's your hop/rubber/nub set up please?

Survivor sounds integuing tbh.

It's the standard hop unit with a ML 70 and omega nub. Gearbox wise I've put a m140 spring, an o ring nozzle and a stronger motor

Unfortunately I've had to keep the standard poly piston so we'll see how long if lasts.

Currently doing 440 on a 0.2

Survivor is a  game run by west midlands airsoft

never tried that, is it exactly as it sounds??

just whack a nail straight through it?

Yes, and run as fast as you can becasue they 'SSSSSSSSPLODE.

Taking all precautions against a chemical fire is a given

AAs fun as that sounds, I think I'll just discharge it and bin it 😂

Look fine if you've plastic already.  I like it myself.  

Just put it on and it does make it look meaner 😂

Nope ! 😈

What has happened bud?

I never have an issue with it.

That's ominous. What happened? 😧

just that they always seem to take the buyers side and you have to jump through hoops to get anywhere

I would say "DAMN YOU CYMA"

but it's a copy of the real sword so it's their fault

DAMN YOU REAL SWORD!!!!

usually you'd just swap 2 of the wires on the motor to reverse a brushless motor, Fairly common in RC cars. I can't see the warhead been any different.

Maybe so but I'd rather not risk going full negative airsoft on a new motor 😁

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah boi!!

Front heavy guns make me think of...

All right, let's do this.

O.K, good idea. 

I'd have gone for a bolt action, AEG, DMR pistol 😁

Sounds awesome!

Nice edit 👌, cz bren I should have said 😂

This is madness. I approve.
