  1. My main concern if I were a potential buyer, would be this guns history. You see these come up in the classifieds all the time, with one dark and/or blurry picture on someone's duvet (usually also featuring the photographers feet).

     

    "I got this off a mate, who got it off some bloke at a game day. He reckons it's had some upgrades, dunno what or how old it is. Please give me £20 less than retail. Collection only, thanks"

     

    Put some effort into the ad and you may get around 60% of the new price. Hopefully you can at least recall how much you paid?

     

  2. Does anyone here own one? How are you getting on with it? I've seen they do one which comes pre-installed with a Perun, but it's not cheap. I really like the look of them though!

     

    Also I'm seeing conflicting information regarding inner barrel length, some quote 250mm & others 320mm.

  3. I picked one of these up the other day. I like the overall colour scheme, there aren't many full green pistols about.

     

    I do like to know there's good spares support for my guns though. Am I right in thinking it's compatible with Hi-Capa 4.3 & MEU parts?

     

    Also, does anyone else have one of these or the Desert version? I'm actually really curious as to how it looks without the rail attachment.

  4. I was in my local shop yesterday planning on picking up a Hi-Capa 4.3. I didn't know they even had these in stock, but as they did I took advantage and picked one up.

    Because of the ambi slide release, it doesn't actually fit in my Gen4 holster. Does anyone have a link to a Gen5 left-handed holster?

  5. 10 hours ago, theSwede said:

    I had most brands of glocks and none have had correct trades out of the box. Not even the licensed VFC/Umarex ones.

    Although I never had a GHK. How are the trades on those?

     

    Same as the Umarex "Licensed product of"

  6. Fair enough, I've just found the quality per £, far higher in the air rifle world than Airsoft. £450 in Airsoft gets you a Taiwan made plastic musket, slinging light spherical objects at 2.2J. In the air rifle world it gets you something made in Germany from beech and steel, firing through a rifled barrel at 16J.

     

    The obvious advantage to Airsoft being able to skirmish with it.

     

    In answer to your question, I'd say pick up any cheap Well rifle. It'll probably be OK for your purposes and if not, you can enjoy tinkering with it.

  7. If it's not selling and you're keen to move it on, make sure your ad is the best it can be. Your gun just isn't desirable the way you've presented it. For a start the backend is three times longer than the front, you get to include ten photos. At least show it fully retracted in some of those. If you have a garden away from prying eyes, take advantage of that and get some close-ups in natural light, so people can accurately assess the condition. Currently I'm lumping you in with all the others we see who've bought a gun off a mate, who bought it off a bloke on a site. You're not really sure what the base gun is or when the work was done. You don't even seem to realise that it's too powerful to be used, all this doesn't instill confidence in the prospective buyer.

     

    If all that doesn't work, you should bring the price down incrementally. I could buy a brand new CYMA Platinum delivered to my door (you make no mention of postage), or several other mid to high-end RIF's, for what you're currently asking.

     

    All the best.

  8. I've found a pair of goggles that I REALLY like, however they will definitely fog up. The Novritsch Antifog unit requires you to cut a section out the top of the goggles. How does the ExFog attach?

  9. I built a Gen4 with Guarder slide about 18 months ago and it was an absolute pain. Nothing seemed to fit correctly. I even contacted Guarder directly and they admitted that their dummy ejector was the wrong size or shape for their slide! (to their credit, they sent me a correct one)

    Despite my best efforts, the slide sat weirdly on the frame.

     

    However the one I built the other week couldn't have gone smoother and it runs like a dream on the stock recoil spring.
