This is really good advice, and looking back, is exactly how I ended up with an AEG as back-up to my MWS.
That’s actually a good way of looking at having a backup. Make sure it’s another primary coz let’s face it you don’t really want to be playing with a rif which is cheap and cheerful and which just ruins the rest of your day. Of course as it’s already been mentioned it’s also down to one’s financial standing and I appreciate times ain’t easy for many folk.

This will definitely help. Having the source of gas warmer will help it condense in the mag properly allowing a fuller fill.
I too have just learned something today! Never really thought about the temperature differential between a gas bottle and the magazine. Now i have to figure out a way of vigorously rubbing the gas bottles in the safe zone before I fill up the mags. Although I hazard to guess I may get some strange looks

I had an unfortunate episode with Nuprol BBs smashing in my MWS which then caused a BB train wreck causing it to bugger up! Luckily I took one of my Marui recoils with me and then continued playing well into the afternoon... Moral of the story... always have a backup when it comes to GBBRs..

Years ago there used to be a woodland site off the A508 J15 somewhere between Stoke Bruerne and Yardley Gobion. It was a friendly site from what I recall and a good bunch of people.... These days it's Finmere for me but that's still a 40mins drive... I'd be interested depending on dates of course....

@AlphaBear bro, think you got that completely round the wrong way. Mosfet gives you the trigger response and protection on semi, you don’t really notice on auto unless you play with settings. Ngrs mags obviously have a low cap switch too, or you can just pump that speed loader 7 or 8 to put 30 or so rounds in those bad boy.
What I meant is that as long as you don’t spam on semi you don’t really need a mosfet. But yes, agreed generally the mosfet helps hands down with many things but it’s really not necessary. I have 3 titans in 3 of my recoils and the other 3 are without mosfet. The 50 shades below does not have a Titan and if I’m being honest I prefer the feel of the original so called mechanical trigger. Although, I do appreciate the hairline trigger on the mosfet when my fingers have frostbite lol

Being an owner of a number of TM recoils, a MWS and a Systema, if I’m being honest my recoils are my to-go rifs. I even bought a 50 shades of tan 416 to do the so called SEAL team loadout but I’ve come to realise a black rif is more preferable to my loadout style.
Having said that the tan 416 with tan PMAGS actually looks the dogs danglies.

Yes lad!!! Gun day is fun day.
Fairly comprehensive list there pal. Only thing I did after not using mine for around three months, was run each mag through the gun to make sure there's nothing sinister going on.
Which gas you going to run? UltraAir or Abbey Predator? Those are your go-to gases IIRC.
I’m gonna stick UltraAir into three mags and Abbey pred (red bottle) in the other three. And then see if there’s any difference. I’ll run 0.3 G&G’s as the ammo as I’ve accumulated quite a horde of them. The 0.4’s I’ll leave to the TM 417.

Gonna be dusting off my MWS after it’s been in storage for over 8 months. I know shocking. Me of all people should know better. Luckily it was greased up and the mags had abbey maintenance gas shoved into them.
So cleaning regime.
1. Check mags for leaks.
2. Check mag rubber dingy dong gas router to make sure all is well.
3 Check the piston rubber for cracks and dryness. FYI gents if you don’t lube it, it’s gonna dry up and crack. Have a pink tub of lube which I keep forgetting what it’s called.4. Barrel clean
5. Gun oil all metal friction on friction parts.
6. Check the hop rubber. Should be fine. But still I’ll have a look.
Have I missed anything?

I can't understand why TM haven't dropped their MWS mags into a P-Mag or E-Mag shell. Maybe one day.
Think I'll pick up some of the GM ones and grab myself some addition o-rings!
Licensing issues I expect.

I run RS Eotechs on mine, a 557 and a XPS2 depending on the load out... I'll probably let the 557 go at some point too but being a bit of a horder it's difficult lol.

Looking for a holographic sight for my TM M4 MWS that actually can be used as a sight and not just for looks?
Budget is around £200-300. Willing to push up to £400 or I would no more than that.
Looking to also combine it with a magnifier behind it. (Please list some options for this as well)
You should post a wanted add in the classifieds buddy!
I may just have some RS Eotechs going
P.S Boys I'm back

Played airsoft at the weekend just gone and the amount of HPA'd AAP-01's was insane.. It seems everyone is running these on HPA with a mix of Cow Cow and Waldo upgrades! I'm still trying to get my head around seeing a M4 adapter mag on a pistol but hey ho!

ASG UltraAir (so green gas), SW around mid 20s.
Done nothing since I last used it about a month ago, on 0.30s, where it was just under (same gas).
BB's, I tried .28, .30, .32s all over... 10-20 fps depending on weight
Just to be safe, Best to stick to Abbey Green when the temp is mid 20s.
