I think I've found it! £40 but better than paying £50 in shipping!
Well that seems promising. At that price it’s worth a punt. Let us all know how you get on. -

Was outranging a lot of my friend's AEGs and since I zeroed my optic, it was pretty much point and click. Now just gotta stick the SixG nub and Tan Modify bucking in my second upper to see how well it goes in comparison.
Also, no issues reloading my mags multiple times with the Airsoft Tailor adaptor for the Odin speedloader. Got the tension on the clutch set just enough to reliably load 33-34 shots every time.
The airsoft tailor adapter? This is intriguing...
@Kerberosthis one?

I'll be installing the ML Autobot 60° 2021 and the Laylax MWS strike hop arm. I do love the look of the DD rail. It's a lovely bit of kit.
I agree the MK18 is a great rail. I rock one too. But sadly Marui’s take on it has been well how can I put it nicely... bonkers. You need a tool to take off the barrel nut and you just can’t get to it like you can with a conventional MK18. As I said there’s a special tool available now. Check out my post on p188. -
New mount for the T1. Think I should have got a real steel version as opposed to a knock off..... damn.
Unity actually supply a template so you can see how the mount actually looks on your rif. Clever way of doing it if you are in two minds.

Thanks, will try
Also @SSPKali would u mind doing a quick photo how did u install G&P adjustable nozzle piston? I have problems with mine, it doesnt give any adjustment whether i set it on high/low or medium setting and the sound after shot is really weird
Is this the G&P adjustable NPAS valve you are talking about? It's the one you just drop into the BCG right?

@Recoil_It's always nice to see a brand spanking new MWS...one can almost smell that new RIF smell when you see it.....
The MK18 MWS....... welcome to the world of frustration....! Unfortunately there is no easy way of removing the Marui MK18 rail. I suggest you have a read of the last 50 pages or so and your question will be answered.... Owners on here have found ingenuous ways of removing the barrel nut. I think one even use an angle grinder at some point... 😂 .You will need to either create a custom tool or find a compatible tool to remove the barrel nut... And which upgraded rubber and hop arm are you specifically talking about.... we are a nosey bunch on here...

I’m trying not to look at that hole where the screw should be in the rail. Damn Ocd. 😂
The mount does look good! I’m warming to it truth be told. The PTS version is supposed to be a very good licensed replica as you already know from having one. Thanks for the pics. Appreciated.

If you have a spare moment can you lob up a pic of it on one of your RIF's. And are you using any magnification with your optic? Thx

I’ve been having way too much fun here. Let me explain......
So, I wanted to try out a Unity mount on the MWS and wasn’t sure if I’d want to spend £200 on the real deal. I mean what if I didn’t like it? It’s a lot of money to spend on a real steel mount especially if you don’t like it afterwards. So fortunately Unity provide a template which you can download and create a mock up model of the mount. So guess what I did. Yup. Craft time 😂
Whatcha think fellas? Cerakote it? 😂.
On a serious note the mount is pretty tall. It’s a 2.26inch variant which gives you a better shooting position when looking down the barrel.
So based on this would you buy one?

Well, many days after starting, I've finally finished all 200 pages. Apart from figuring out that I really need to do more with my spare time, here are my main take homes from the thread:
- @AlphaBearhates Nuprol
- @AlphaBearreally hates Nuprol
- @AlphaBearfrigging hates Nuprol
- @AlphaBearabsolutely, positively hates Nuprol
Thanks everyone. Looking forward to receiving the stock alert email telling me it's time to sell a kidney (or kid) as my MWS journey is about to begin.
Good man @C-Diddy for reading all 200 pages. Your journey is now complete. Well almost....Now just get that damn MWS laddie and start having some fun. And for you’re preferred choice of BBs. Drum roll.... Don’t use Nuprol RZR bbs else the next 200 pages will be even more entertaining lol
On reflection maybe I should start showing Nuprol some love? Give them a second chance? Hmmmmm? Actually sod that thought!!! 😂

Guess which brand this rail is which Luke is referring too 😂😂😂😂

Okay it gave in after excess heat and bashing on top of it, i even managed not to damage the last nut! now goes the upgrades
EDIT: FOR ANYONE WHO HAS MTR16, the last nut should be unscrewed in the same direction as the first one!
There you go. If all else fails give it a good bash lol. Truth be told some of the MWS’s are like that too. You just got to give them a wee bash to dislodge any suction or whatever is holding the collar in place with the receiver. -

Hey guys,
So i finally managed to take out the castle/barrel nut off, I am at this part right now where i dunno what to do next and dont want to harm my MTR.
Should i just try to yank out the outer/innerbarrel right now (its really stiff) or should I do sth before this?
That MTR barrel looks like a giant drill bit...!!
If the receiver end is the same as a regular MWS then a wee knock with a rubber mallet should do it... I'd check the manual first though just to make sure there's nothing extra in the MTR receiver/barrel assembly over a MWS just in case there's a grub screw lurking..

It's always good to see this BB debate bubbling along... there really isn't a right or wrong answer when it comes to BB's other than DONT USE NUPROLS in a MWS!!!
Like anything with an MWS, no two will probably function the same but will do within tolerances. The science and engineering behind the MWS is such that different people will have varying results. This is so true in the case of BB's. What works well for one person may not necessarily work as good for another. I believe It's trial and error to some degree, not I deal I know but that's the platform we are working with.

No bolts or carriers though😟
Set up a stock alert. They come in in small quantities.
Although they have most of the parts in so you can probably make up a new BCG from scratch lol

Folks,
Impulse101 have had a huge restock of Marui MWS parts... So get your springs, nozzles, buffers and whatever you feel you need a duplicate of.... or triplicate of or in my case QUADRUPLICATE of (is that even a word lol)
And if you choose the airmail option it's about £9 equivalent and takes circa 2 week
Happy shopping...

Damn that’s specific AF, I wonder if I’ll even be able to find something like that lol... mine is brand new as well, literally took it out of the sealed box, popped some bbs in and inserted my PTS epm, and immediately bbs were falling out once the mag was full. It seems like it didn’t ship with an o-ring at all if you ask me
The ODIN speed loader has an adjustable clutch. There is a video on the ODIN Facebook page which says how to adjust the clutch as some people were having problems even with the new EPM mags (AEG version). I have two ODINS and they work flawlessly with my NGRS mags albeit you lose a couple off BB's in the Odin's loader pipe..

Dude this is not a buy/sell/interest thread... Suggest you post stuff like that in the classifieds section....

Right folks, sorry I can't for the life of me figure out how to search within a thread but my question is:- asg blaster's- safe enough to shoot for chrono on an mws?
ASG Devil Blasters are fine as a few folks on here have said. To be honest they ain’t my first choice for an MWS but as you’re just using them to chrono the rif they will suffice. The devil blasters are the more higher end of BB of the blaster range.

True, it's perfect for OG mags. But not so good for the after market mags like A1A, Prowin and G&P. I wish I would have saved the 20 euros because my standard speed loader loads the Ace1Arms perfectly while the TM XL only get them to around 26 bbs.
Can't wait for the GunsModify Pmags...
I don't have any third party mags so can't comment I'm afraid.... With regards to the Marui XL it loads 4 bb's at a time so I usually do about 6 pumps and then struggle with the last couple. Having said that the more you use the mags the easier the spring will become to load bbs, so I've heard, but that's not worked for me yet... I've no idea what the longevity of the Marui XL is like but it's all plastic so I expect the MWS springs will destroy it at some-point sooner rather than later...
