I would personally remove 1 of the bearing sets from the gun ( piston to make it lighter )

Does it have bearings on the piston also? When you clipped the spring did you clean it up correctly? ( spring is what I would be looking at tbh)

Wow it's been 7 years since these came out.. How far did you tare the gun down? Areas I would be have been looking at are Piston cup - lose,damaged, dry Hammer spring- broken Broken valve knocker But with you describing it jamming is the bottom of hop broken?

I have just looked at a asg shadow and had a play , the left hand control needs a little pressure but it will come out , I used a thin tool to push from the inside and down the side of the control to get some movement, watch part 14 as it has a tiny spring. Once its starts to move out the right hand control just goes vertical and comes out.

Wanted to ask your opinions on this mount. Is it real ? Was sold as real but I notice most photos now have a nsn number.( guy who sold said it was rs and I had some real boxed scope mounts and a very old rare gb-tech spr kit) If it's a clone who made them ? To help with google it's a arms #32 throw lever bipod mount.

I would never personally glue the nozzle but up to the user. Only reason I'm commenting is the gap on your shell.. the cylinder head looks to be pushing it apart?

Been a back burner project but with a chance to get out this sunday built this in a bit of a rush today with the help of my 5 year old 🤯. Its bit of a mix. G&P upper I had spare , new m16 lower G&P a1 stock GB-TECH mk12 mod0 front set Arms #38 scope rings with arms #22 trc Gearbox is a systema mishmash still running a spectre btc. Sorry for the crap photo

Came off a night shift and ordered what I thought was a m16a1.. ordered a m16vn set instead 😭 but I might have lucked out as the lower is a half fence unit.

I would be looking at the g3 ,msg,sg1 and PSG all super nice looking. Tm scar h ... hate the fecking thing lol Sr25 done to death . Sa58s are nice but getting a solid ca is hard and mids are hit and miss ( on offer for $10 on tiger atm )

Wasn't going to do this yet but just been asked how much I would sell my sa58 for.. So first up is a classic army sa58 that's was last years pet project: Modify gearbox shell ( never again lol ) Gate aster 13/1 gearset Modified shs high torque motor Ultimate piston set Ca m100 Ka med fal rail Maple rubber Shooting 370fps , large hicap and 2 standard hicaps. Classic army SAR officer m41 , got it in a bulk deal , fitted a tm sliding stock ( no lock fitted so will pull off fully) , full stock will come with it . Fps was just over 300 if I remember correctly and has 3 mags. Original magpul masada tan, fully boxed with a Wii tech hop and nozzle , been years since I used it so need to find the fps out.. Fully boxed we msk cqb black, traded marked , fps was 340 but again not been used in years lol G&P mk12 mod1 spr , this is the full kit with g&p scope , suppressor. Paint work was bettered and was painted , madbull barrel maple hop rubber shooting 330fps G&P samR , this gun is near mint but is currently missing its gearbox and barrel as I used them in the m16vn.. Just wanting a guide price for these as I dont want to end up on Mack's 😂 Sorry for the poor photo but it's a major mission to get them all out

Had this awhile and it's just been hidden away in my gun cupboard. It's very clean other that someone in the past tried to remove the front sight without removing the grub screw.. so it has a nice line down the bottom of the barrel. Atm the o ring on the bolt has failed but will be replaced and it has 2 30rd mags and also has both types of car15 FH What's it worth do you think ?

The nozzle is attached to a tappet plate that's spring loaded , on your gear you have a pin that pulls back the tappet plate so your next bb is in place in the hop unit , once the gear releases the tappet its forced forward creating a seal behind the bb so when the piston moves forward you should have no airloss. Look for a v2 gearbox animation on youtube

Got my hope up with that price I have a ca sa58 I wanted to shift lol

I will admit I have never had a nozzle tighten up like your describing but I would leave it lose as long as its returning fully when you push it in.

Could always fit new wiring so it fits the stock tube and then run an extension from that point so you can swap stocks

We would need to know make and model of gun you have? Most v2 gearbox nozzles spin free. As a rule I would say dont twist objects around as sometimes they might fall off 😉

You will also need to rewire as the plugs are going to be in the way. But as said above most makes of stock tube will fit , if you want to use a lipo tube, you just need to cut the back of your receiver to match.

Could be the aster I'm thinking of but sure they dont like Bush less motors?

Super happy snagged what's for me is a holy grail item. Full Gb-tech mk12 mod0 kit + ARMS scope rings and qd bipod adaptor.

I use to work for them, weekend he will be busy but I'm sure you will hear monday at some point , if you have any problems let me know and I will try and chase it up for you.
