      Hi, please describe your issue so we can help you.

  2. anyone ever had a gearbox with different size bearings in the 2 halfs??

    1. strykerles

      strykerles

      never mind, had to "persuade" them 🔨

  3. busy weekend, 2 guns to fix and 2 gearboxes to build😚

  4. So the AK is firing lovely and then....... CRUNCH. looks like something has stripped 😪

    2. strykerles

      strykerles

      UPDATE!! 

       

      turns out that the bearings at the piston head had fell apart and jammed up the gears

       

      Stripped it, changed out the piston head, changed the spring and added a delayer chip and it now throws out 342fps with a .20 very quickly in auto

  5. before I dive down a youtube wormhole does anyone know how to remove the cocking handle from a Cyma mp5k?

      We have Cyma MP5 Rentals, not the K version but it might be similar.
      Only ever removed the slider by the way not the handle itself but found this for you.

      "The cocking handle is disassembled by removing the upper receiver from the handguard and sticking a long philips head screwdriver down the FRONT IRON SIGHT housing. You need to remove the handguard pin as well in order to disassemble the front iron sight and access the screw to remove the charging handle."

      To remove the cocking Slider & Spring:
      Take out the push pins circled in the photo (probably have to take the top right one out too on the K version) and slide the grip and gearbox backward out of the receiver, attached to the gearbox should be a slider bar with a spring on it.
      Inside the rest should be the slider, tilt it backward to remove the slider (should just fall out.

      Apparently there's also a handle pin you have to punch out??

      Thanks for that. I'll have a look

  6. anyone know of any slim stick batteries higher than 1200mah?

    1. AK47frizzle

      AK47frizzle

      how slim we talking? The slimmest 11.1v I have so far is the nuprol 1450mah one. That can fit in an m4 buffer tube.

    2. strykerles

      strykerles

      the really slim type for fitting inside my MP5K and CZ bren, pic is a 7.4v but you get the idea

      I ordered a bag of bio .30g from 6mm ammo yesterday, it came to only ~£11 with a discount code (cant remember the code, just google and you should be able to find it), with free delivery which is a massive plus. I hope it's good ammo, not used them before!

  8. UPS suck ass, expecting a delivery today. Had an email saying it was out for delivery and it had my name and address on.

     

    Then get another email later saying the name in the parcel is wrong and delivery will be delayed. WTF.....

      Don't think so, depends on the gearbox. Don't know a lot about ics.

       

      Thanks for the link though 👍

  9. Don't you hate it when a motor connector snaps off as you bend it to fit 🤬

    1. iptaylor

      iptaylor

      Did that to my ICS, ordered new crimps and soldered cable direct to motor.

    2. Rogerborg

      Rogerborg

      Yes, horrid little things.  I notice that warhead motors come with short tails for the connectors, and really all aftermarket motors should be like that.  Having seen that, I'm minded to solder some tails onto all my motor connectors [puts it on the list].

  10. Finally got a piston that will fit my Cyma SVD 😁

  11. jumped to rank 12 😂

  12. Well the LCT svd is up for pre order at a grand, f**k.....

      more than i'd have thought, but then given it's only comparable competition is the (almost) unobtanium real sword we should be greatful there's a premium option out there.

       

      not gonna lie, i've been moving away from airsoft this past year and still tempted, certainly it's on the list of comeback guns.

    3. Rogerborg

      Rogerborg

      My sadface isn't from the price, it's that people are still "pre-ordering" airsoft toys in CURRENT_YEAR.  By which I mean handing car money over to complete strangers in return for nothing more than a non-binding aspiration based on the vaguest of specifications, and before even the shilliest of shill reviews appears.

       

      I hope we don't see posts around July asking "How long is too long to wait?"

      shhh, we want people to buy them then decide otherwise, get a healthy secondhand market up and running :P

  13. Sniper sidearm done 😁 just need a little spray on the rails but happy with it

     

    although may change the rail system for one slightly less bulky when I can find one

      it's a pain to find another handguard in stock anywhere!!!

    3. Impulse

      Impulse

      @strykerlesI hear that. I want to get an m-lok one, but finding one in stock in the UK is impossible. Can get them further afield though.

    4. strykerles

      strykerles

      airsoft ones are hard to come by but a RS one is easy to get 😂

  14. Not minted enough for a marui, so is there much difference between a JG and cyma mp5k?? 😅

    1. Impulse

      Impulse

      Can't speak for the JG, but I've got the Cyma mp5k and it's a fantastic little beast. Kept it stock, as it's more of a secondary for me than a primary as a woodland bushboi and stock it will hit 45m no issue which is all I need it to do, but my one gripe is the rear sling loop is pretty awful. It's not the end of the world, but mine snapped off while on a one-point sling at ai500 as it was bouncing around at my side, but I don't think it would've had any issues on a two-point. That said, I'm replacing my rear sling loop part with a folding stock when I have the funds and running it on a two-point sling anyway since a one-point didn't agree with me using it as a secondary anyway. Felt clunky.

       

      All in all, great little bit of kit and I wholly recommend it.

    2. strykerles

      strykerles

      nice 1 thanks, going to be using as a sniper sidearm in a holster

  15. So patrolbase can't guarantee next day delivery in the UK but I can get some items from russia in 2 days 😂

      I got my X-Fire order from Japan in 5 days. Insane delivery time when you think about it especially when a lot of UK retailers require 2 days to process an order.

      Yet another reason why unfortunately on the whole I generally don’t ‘support the UK Airsoft traders and buy British !’ Shit customer service anyone ? Doh !🤦‍♂️

      The thing thing at really gets me about this, is that it's someone in a similar line of work who buys the nicked stuff.  I got a bloke knocking on th edoor a few months back, 'Do you want a three cheap generators?  How's about a blah blah blah...'  The swine scope your van out as they offer you some other poor sods tools.

       

      A pox on them.   

    4. Rogerborg

      Rogerborg

      Agreed.  You should have called the police, who would have swooped in and - no, I can't even keep a straight face.

       

      Although it's more <angry-john-goodman.gif> at this point.

      the svd is sold, but methinks that's a pairing could do with a pso-1 and pk-1 respectively :P

      lol..he was selling Mk7's..so I bought some!  Also I asked about my BFG as he also mentioned in safety brief plastic encased grenades are ok...and my BFG though metal is encased in plastic.  Looks like BFG's are back on the menu...though Magflash is probably a bit over the top, so will stick to 9mm blanks. :)

    3. Brophy

      Let me know how you get on!

       

      Unfortunately, I've been summoned for a meal that day (it better be fucking good!), so unable to make it.

  23. VSS performed well even though a couple of the mags didn't feed very well, but I suspect it may be down to the ammo

     

    and it also was overhopping .40s 😁

  24. So DMR'd the VSS, m140 spring, sorted the airseal, AOE and shimming

     

    Should be getting around the 450-470 fps

     

    Fire a few down the garden with .20s

     

    565fps.................
