I find it interesting the trend with 2nd hand Novritsch Sales: A.) How many Novritsch items come up for sale unskirmished. B.) How similar so many of the listings are (only used for backyard plinking) C.) I bought this two days ago but now I’m leaving Airsoft forever, press F to pay respects. It makes me suspect that the Novritsch team has become less stringent on checking for a defence as so many of these seem to have been bought by people who are not active skirmishers. Maybe a “sales a sale” attitude has been adopted to get through a tough time? Still, it’s a second hand item and the price is silly if he wants to tempt someone to by his one instead of just buying a new unit from NV.

AirsoftPro M249 Hop chamber V2, ML Macaron 50, ML Nub and a SHS High Torque motor. I had to see it to believe it just how bad those A&K M249 hops were. Hopefully the V2 AirsoftPro is an improvement!

I’ve been trying to find more garish crap to stick to it. I want people to assume it’s a POS... Internally it’s a pretty mean build. 9:1 DSG on a ASG Infinity 22000 kicks out a fair bit of plastic and the mags keep up with 0.28’s.

Finally a Silver Madbull Noveske amplifier arrived from Italy, I think this is now as eye-searingly ugly as an M4 can get! Personally I’m quite fond of it, might have to paint some flames on my Atacs gear to complete the “total dickhead” look though

After seeing so many Zenitco Handguard rails on 74u’s recently I felt compelled to remove mine! Happy with how it’s looking now. Also, my little M4 DSG thing has hit puberty, Vltor receiver and a low profile 7” handguard have given a much more aggressive look to what was intended to be a flashy, gaudy affair. The new Silver castle nut is the latest “shiny bit for the sake of it” addition

Binary was what drew me to the Leviathan in the first place and it’s enabled in that video. It’s a bit risky in a game though, according to my chrono I can get 12rps in Binary mode. It’s too easy to accidentally be a total knob to someone. In the earlier video when I was testing it, it’s set to safe-binary-full Its currently in how it will be skirmished, safe-semi-3rd burst IMG_6949.MOV

There’s a good friendly atmosphere at Finmere and I’m a firm believer in not shitting where I eat. I wouldn’t be a dick to any of the players there and no one there has hosed me when I’ve been out in the open. There’s even someone running a hoselock ghostbuster rig now and even he’s not a twat

You needn’t worry. It’s been a lockdown boredom build more than anything. The site I play at run most of their games as semi-only anyway!

Quiet day at work, been fiddling again with my M4 DSG build. Think I’ve found the sweet-spot now and depending on battery charge I’m getting between 40/45rps at 300/310fps. Burst mode makes quite a noise and semi auto is nice and snappy! It’s deliberately the ugliest thing externally, internally I think it’s porn. Retro arms Split V2, Jefftron Leviathan, ASG Infinity motor, 9:1 SHS DSG, SHS Swiss cheese piston with 9 teeth left, Polycarb pistonhead, SHS nozzle and the original Specna Cylinder head, Maxx hop unit with Maple leaf Macaron 50 and Omega Nub. edit- one of my staff eats nothing but pot noodles, the empty pots make great phone stands and caddies to keep screws and bolts in IMG_6925.MOV

Bullseye country sport continue to amaze, I ordered this at midnight on Monday! Also, on a side note, I had to bring my own mug to work

I caved and bought a Maxx model hop for my little M4. Lockdown has been brutal to my wallet!

What are the odds? I would offer to swap but the grey looks so good alongside the silver/grey trim. Out of interest do you also suffer from “has it actually turned itself off-itis?”

It was originally meant to go on the AK. The seller sent me a Grey unit and not black so it looked a bit out of place. Glad I moved it over as it sits much better on the AR

Lockdown has made for quite a few changes to the ole-loadouts. Here’s everything in their current form. Eotech will be changing to a much smaller RMR style sight on the AK. AK - LCT base. M140 DSG build running 340fps at 35rps on a 7.4V lipo. Combat union AK hop was a pleasure to install and is the nicest Hop I’ve handled. Makarov is rocking a Maple leaf bucking and tensioner with a crazy jet barrel. M4 - Specna base. M140 DSG Running 300fps at c.50rps on an 11.1V lipo. Jefftron Leviathan gives a 5rd burst instead on full auto as I’m not a total div, despite the Novristch SSP1 and Silver trim. L85 - ICS. Stock internals, rewired to a Gate Nano hard. M14 - Cyma base. Wooden stock. Semi auto locked and bang on 450fps with no hop applied. Gate Nano hard in the stock. Hawke scope is lovely and I would thoroughly recommend!

It will just be nice to have an AK style hop that stays set during a game, the slider style always seem to have a mind of their own

That’s about the first feedback I’ve seen on the web regarding the Combat Union, I hope you know how reassuring your words are! Half of me was expecting a £60 shiny turd.

Lockdown is dangerous for my wallet. Curiosity ended up with a purchase of a LCT 106 to use for parts, then I had a spare LCT V3 gearbox just sitting there next to an ASG Infinity 45,000... SHS DSG SHS 32:1 gears M140 Spring Maple leaf Macaron 50* Combat Union AK Hop Gate trigger cables Pack’o’shims Retro Arms 9 tooth piston (can’t be arsed to break out the dremel) Should be good fun building that when it all arrives. I’ve had my eye on the combat union hop for a while. It’s probably no better or worse than the modify one it’ll be replacing but IT IS very shiny!

It’s a bit of an exaggeration but not total bollocks. I’ve got about a 50-60fps variation moving the spring guide from the outermost and innermost settings. Still wouldn’t pay that for a second hand gun tho!

Nunchuck style 7.4, there’s not a lot of room for much in foregrip

The bolt was a bit of a tight squeeze! I had to file off a bit of the tang that keeps it straight in the receiver before it would travel properly. Feels great now it’s in! To be as descriptive as possible, it goes “schlunk” now where the original mock bolt went “ting”. It also looks the part with the top cover open! Theyve got two types, a short one for “U” style gas blocks and a longer one for more standard front ends.

I completely forgot about the EBB kit, I stuck one of these in instead. Feels very satisfying to rack but doesn’t have the EBB feature.

Been itching to throw together my ideal modern AK for a while, here it is. LCT externals, full LCT bolt and Gate NanoHard tucked in the buffer tube. Feels solid as a rock and actually weighs less than the old unicorn kit it has replaced!

Few bits for an AK build have arrived. Just need to burn that 7.62 mag that shipped with the AK! LCT AK106, B18 railed handguard, Viking vertical grip, 74SU sight rail and a replica Omega3 RDS.
