Cr0-Magnon

Welcome to the club! I skirmished mine, complete with drum mag last week and although I probably could've gotten more kills with and AEG, each kill was far more satisfying. I was a little surprised by the cooldown though, as it was a hot day (around 26C). However if I tried more than half a dozen shots in a row, it did splutter a bit. Leaving it to rest for a minute or so brought it back to normal.

Got a spitfire tracer for mine ? Tried to do bursts but at about 30rps the 24 round mag doesn't last long! VID_20210607_213233.mp4

Mostly that the RPM with standard mags is 1500. With the drum it goes up to 2000 and slightly higher power.

Yeah. It's turned the AAP in to a whole different animal - especially for the first hundred or so shots. A shame about the durability, especially at the price! I often take back-ups of everything but will bear than in mind, cheers!

Picked up the Kraken nub and it's only really if you want to hop sniper heavy BB's, as tried it with 0.36's. Zero hop applied = needs more hop. One click on the dial, sends them to the sky. I have since switched back to the standard AA nub, which is fine as it easily hops 0.30's with plenty of wheel to go. Definitely want to use this for village games at my local site. Early 340fps with no hop. Drops to a very consistent 316 when set to 0.30g. Besides, I've just picked up one of these while I was exchanging my 19X....?

I installed the wheel adjustment chamber and 138MM ML Crazy Jet barrel last night. In case anyone was wondering, 138MM is the max length you can use on the Black Mamba kit without it extending past the muzzle break cutout and looking a bit silly. This hop chamber is interesting as it changes the system from the standard pistol hop arm to a proper arm and nub, similar to an AEG setup. Just because I get FOMO over these things, I've jumped back on skirmshop and ordered a kraken flat nub to pair with the 50 degree flamingo bucking. Looks like it's going to be pretty epic though. I started off with the hop on about halfway and it was skying 0.3s. Chronoed around 336fps on 0.2's

No make or model, could be a VFC I guess? Although someone really needs to introduce him to aliexpress if he paid that for those accessories. Optic:50Grip:35

You failed to highlight "Unused for 3 plus years" So not only is it more expensive than new, you'll likely need to give it a thorough service before it even works.

The really messed up thing is this is the SECOND one of these I've bought after a few drinks. They're cool but so big and heavy.

Just seen they do a steel hammer, so will pick one up if it fails....not the end of the world for me as most of my primaries are SMG's. I like this one. It's flat but wide and has good grip on the face (unlike the cowcow), so I find it comfortable and without the safety getting in the way you can tune it to zero take-up. Let me know if you figure out why they tell you to put the small grub screw in the bottom though as I have no-idea what purpose it serves.

@Steveocee - What would you recommend doing?

That's literally the only reason I did it ? ....hey at least you guys won Eurovision! ?

- Black Mamba Type A fitted. - Hadron Short Stroke Kit fitted (300% nozzle BBU spring and recoil buffer). TTI adjustable trigger (no safety) fitted. Most of it was really simple but I found reassembling the lower far more fiddly than actual Glock platforms. I've also just purchased the wheel adjustment hop unit, as with the BM kit you can no-longer access adjustment with the top still on. Will pair it with a 138MM Maple Leaf crazy jet and 50 degree Flamingo bucking. Full-auto is kicking out 25rps and should be over at least 330fps with the slightly longer inner barrel....think it's time to get a drum and go pistol only!

Possibly there's another way to phrase it but how would you distinguish between "5th hand, been skirmished 300 times" and something which has been owned for a month or two and either hasn't seen a skirmish or just the once? If I was purchasing I would put significantly more value on the latter.

Oh you know......somewhere outside The EU... https://www.airsoftworld.net/action-army-aap-01-black-mamba-cnc-upper-receiver-kit-a.html They also have type B.

From what I understand, I'd need to keep the barrel length under 150mm. Anyway I've just picked up: * Black Mamba Type A upper * Hadron Shortstroke kit * 50 degree flamingo bucking * TTI flat trigger (the one without the Glock style safety) So will continue looking into the barrel and I want to pick up some mag bases but otherwise think it should be pretty beastly.

Does sound like perhaps the nozzle isn't going in deep enough. Can you remove the base plate and try without that in the way?

1) It doesn't cycle. 2) It's got polished slide rails for smoother cycling. I think this is a good example of why this thread exists. As a warning against paying that kind of money, for that kind of gun.

I've been out of the loop for a while but is anyone running an extended inner barrel through a surpressor? If so which length to keep it sub 350fps?

100% this and I think it comes from the Gen Z's (technically I'm a millennial) growing up with social media and realising that you can't actually win an argument/discussion online, so resort to dropping one of these phrases as to not open themselves up for analysis of their expanded opinion.

It feels far nicer in the hand, probably hops a slightly heavier BB, slightly further but that's about it. Don't get me wrong, I'm 100% saying they're not worth it on a £ to performance level (much like a "fully upgraded" NGRS) but just highlighting that you can sink £600 in to a pistol.

Oh my sweet summer child, this cost me £550 plus to put together....

So expensive that Airsoft Mike will actually need to pay for it.

Same site, this looks a bit dodge...https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/wanted-novritsch-ssr15-new-or-used_i26291 "I am looking to buy a Novritsch SSR15 from someone either if you've used it or I'm happy if you buy it from novritch brand new and ship it to me (I will pay extra for that of course"
