    Tried many camos.i am a real fan of all camos good and bad......but have to think of the environment I play in if it's going to belp me during the game and I have found multicam tropic to be brilliant.dont see too many people in it either which is nice.

    Is it ineffective now?
     
     
     
    Can you clarify exactly what you mean by that?
     
    Are there side-to-side flex?  Excessive slack before you get any tension on it?  Does it not fire consistently when you pull it?
     
     
     
     
    Well, there's a can of worms.  If you just want a bit more than stock, I'd go with a motor like this: https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/motors-parts/gp-16tpa-motor-long running on a 7.4V lipo.
     
    But many, many other options and opinions are available.  You can go with a high speed motor, you can change the gears, but as above, once you open the gearbox, you can find yourself with no working gun pretty quickly.
     
     
     
    Without opening the gearbox, you can fit a tighter bore barrel which might (hop rubber and air seal allowing) give you a boost.  ZCI offer good value for money, although the range is limited just now because of shipping issues.  Fortunately, AK2M4 has just got some back in stock, https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/inner-barrels?manufacturer_filter=15 and I believe (but check yourself!) that your stock barrel is 229mm.  Now, you can go longer as you have a suppressor, but you won't necessarily get any more power or accuracy from it.  Really, no joke, barrel length just isn't that important in airsoft. Anything over 200mm is good for getting 350fps - I just got 374fps from a 229mm ZCI barrel, an M100 spring and a good air seal, and had to go down to an M90 spring to get it down to 340fps.
     
    I fit 50 or 60 degree Maple Leaf hop rubbers, but cheaper ones work as well.
     
     
     
    The best thing you can do for reliability is to not open the gearbox.
     
    If you do, I'd radius the front of the gearbox.  You can also fit a sorbo pad, although I don't bother.  Both are shown here:
     
     
     
    Once you're in there, you'll want to check the piston air seal and lube and/or stretch and/or replace the piston o-ring: YouTube and Google will help with that.
     
    You can also wire it for a mosfet while you're in there, which is a whole topic to itself.
     
    The only real reasons to go in there for maintenance purposes though are: check and improve the air seal if your fps is way down and you can't sort it from outside the gearbox; or if you suspect that your trigger contacts are badly worn and need replaced.
     
    Really though: if it ain't broke, don't fix it, or at least not until you have a working backup gun.
     
     
     
    What I did on my MP5K was to fit a very small rubber o-ring onto the fire selector, to pull the other side tight against the casing and engage it in the detents.  I'm not sure what size, maybe 3mm ID x 1mm, I just pulled it from a box of assorted o-rings.
     

     
     
    The other thing that MP5s suffer from is sloppy hop units.  I'm not sure if yours is set with rotating lever on top of it, or a foward-and-backwards slide.  Either way, they're prone to moving:
     
     
    If you have a lever with that issue, I'd shim it out to make it a tight interference fit, or (quite seriously) get it set then tape it in place.
     
    If you have a slide-style adjuster, put a ruber O-ring around both it and the barrel, or cable tie it to the barrel, in order to hold it in place.
     
    And I'll say it again for luck: motor, barrel, hop rubber first.  I would not open the gearbox until you have a backup gun ready.

    The do's? Do what you want. The dont's? Don't listen to anyone who shits on what you like.
     
    Get what you think looks cool to you. Plenty of people do impression kits and the like, in reality as long as you're not pretending to be someone in active service or goose stepping a full SS outfit with swastikas out the whazoo nobody is really going to care.
     
    In reality the biggest help to concealment in airsoft is knowing when to stand still and not silhouetting. Plenty of times I've just crouched in the middle of a woodland site and had people 10-15 metres away (or less) just walk past.

    General question re; harness+belt vs. a plate carrier - does a plate carrier setup help much in the winter we're now getting into? In the summer I'd sweat buckets with just my harness and belt, I suppose a shirt under my invader gear top might help in winter but yeah just wondering how they fare for you guys in different weather.
     
    Edit: Might aswell post my helm. Got my new TMC RAC headset in tan today, looks a lot better imo;

    If that's their attitude towards their customers, no wonder their support is random.

    My package arrived on Friday. Very well packed and the tracking service meant I could watch the journey across Poland and Germany with great excitement.
     
    My only issue was that the cocking handle on my MP5 had snapped in 2 places while in the box! (I know these handles are meant to be temperamental, but I at least wanted the opportunity to break it myself with a good slap!) I contacted them and they are sending me a new handle, no fuss, which I was happy with.
     
    Everything else in the package was spot on and prices seemed as good as you could get.

    Get a couple of decent cloths. Isopropyl alcohol for cleaning stubborn stuff and clean the barrel once every 3 months. This is a very well documented question though and is a good example of why you should use the search before asking as it's asked every month or so. You'll get much quicker and better answers if you look by yourself first, then fill in the gaps later through asking.
     
    http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/28054-cleaning-with-isopropyl-alcohol-vs-silicone/ covers everything in depth. As above though:
    Clean with isopropyl alcohol (kitchen towel is just as good as buying the pre-packaged alcohol wipes, but a lot cheaper) Use a cleaning rod Try not to get too close to the bucking (though you may want to do one run over it just to remove any lube that's made its way down your barrel from the gearbox (AEG) or gas in the magazine (GBB) Finish up with a swab of silicone to keep the barrel slick and to make BB fragments not stick as easily to the inside of the barrel Do not get lube on your bucking - best practice is to make markings on your cleaning rod so that you know exactly where to stop  
    I guess to answer your question: 1lt of isopropyl alcohol (around £6-8 on eBay) or a pack of alcohol cleaning wipes, some kitchen towel, cleaning/unjamming rod for barrels. For everything else a couple of rags and a couple of lint-free cloths too. Lube wise I use silicone or Frog Lube - some recommend just silicone, some recommend nothing and some recommend other branded stuff. There's no particular consensus on this but don't buy something with loads of additives as it'll rot the seals in your gun (less of an issue with AEGs, but more of an issue with GBBs).
