Mine arrives on Tuesday....
-
I've voted......but that's a bit of a drive! I'll keep an open mind though!

😂 We won't get banned for liking Mustang will we? I don't own any KMCS concealment systems.....honest! The supressor needs a drill running through the middle to make more uniform as I had a few flyers from it! Vertical grip is also off so I can holster it. I have a feeling ill be chopping and changing the form of it dependant on need. @Skara I've got my eye on a second one as well, just so I don't have to keep on taking bits on and off. @AlphaBear You literally use a flat blade screw driver (a special tool is available) to unscrew the filling valve on the bottom on the mag and then screw in the corresponding HPA valve. A little bit of PTFE tape helps seal better. I had to make the holes on the plastic base plates a bit bigger with my Dremel but other than that, really straight forward. Maintenance wise, I'll probably put the original valves back in and fill with some abbey maintenance gas when not in use. Damage to the RIF wise, if you don't turn the pressure all the way up and try not to dump mag after mag on full auto then I don't see it causing any additional wear. Although I'm a noob to HPA so I could be wrong?!

Oh gosh, that does look lovely! Picked up my HPA tank last night and tapped some mags! Set to 90 p.s.i, getting a steady 330 FPS with a 2/3 FPS variant. I cannot wait to use it on the 5th!! Was chucking some .32's don't the garden last night, on full auto it's like a hose pipe!!

Thanks for the quick reply. Admittedly (like you've pointed out) I'm looking at buying one pretty quickly after showing initial interest. I was perhaps looking at buying one in the new year, as a rough time frame. I hadn't expected them to come back into stock or come out with new variants this quickly, so it's taken me by surprise a little. I am however in the fortunate position to only be paying trade price for the MTW, plus my share of the import tax and shipping fees. So I've got the safety net that if it doesn't work out for me or i don't like it I could comfortably make my money back or even a small profit if I felt that way inclined.

Well looks like I've got a tough choice to make! My mates ordered the new Milspec (10" w/ reaper M) and the new forged (10" w/inferno 2). Now I've got the decision of which one I want? I'm 60 / 40 maybe even 70 / 30 in favour of the Milspec w/ reaper M as I like the idea of the purely mechanical engine. I had a look over my mates lads and managed to dry fire it atleast this time. The trigger felt nice and still snappy enough even for a reaper M. I intend on using it more in overgrown sites where sniping with my VSR isn't much fun. Don't intend on making it a DMR either. I dunno if I've aswered my own question or not? Thoughts on a postcard? Is it better to have the full auto and never use it? Anyone ever had electrical issues with the inferno from water ingress or anything? It's going to cost me all of the money so wanted the one that'll be the most hard wearing. Obviously it'll get the love and maintenance it deserves!! Tah

🤣 Looks like that's 2 of us that's have been impressed with his recent videos then! I'll hopefully be picking this up next week to get me started. I'll be HPA tapping a few extended Glock mags for my AAP-01 pistol. https://www.ukfob.co.uk/GBB-HPA-Starter-Kit-Tank-Line-Reg-and-5-Valves?tag=HPA From what I saw on Facebook, High pressure Airsoft should hopefully be getting a restock on Monday. I asked Airsoft cam man about his engine and he said he's using the Inferno Gen2. Admittedly I wasn't expecting a restock so soon so I don't know if I can face spunking all that money while sites aren't even open! So I'll try to (but probably wont) hold off until next year! I'll be going SBR spec for my length. Engine wise probably the inferno as I can't seem to find much info on the reaper M. I'm sure someone who actually owns one will be along and answer your questions.....

Well I've been too busy at work to actually get chance to get my rifle hopping correctly so I face going to my next skirmish *fingers crossed* without a "safe to use" sniper rifle. I can't really run around in a leaf suit and my louder than loud ARP-9 can I? So, against your advise @alxndrhll..... (In which I am still very appreciative of) I spent an hour tonight putting in my M130 spring which is firing (on 0.46g) 303 FPS @ 1.98j. Obviously the hop needs setting. So we're safe from the nasty joule creep for now. I do have, and may end up fitting some of those power up spacers that you can fit on the spring guide and a sorbo pad thingy for this piston, in the hope of raising the power slightly but I've got other things to sort out first. My desperation to play and use my sniper is the only reason I've chosen to ignore @alxndrhll's advise for now, probably just for this game on the December 5th at Skirmish if it even happens. The next time I goto Matlock Combat Games (probably in the new year) I hope to have my HPA set up sorted for my AAP-01, so I'll stick the heavier spring back in and take it there purely to test. On a side note, I'm filling a rather large pot with money for a Wolverine MTW, so I can up my aggressive bush game when I need to! Thanks for reading and thanks for all of the continuing advice. It's massively appreciated and has been a huge help in this build so far! Stay safe!!

Has anyone got the Reaper M engine in their MTW? Im liking the purely mechanical workings of it. I know there's no full auto but so far I've managed without it. But after watching Airsoft Cam man's latest video and asking what he was using (Inferno Gen2) that seemed to work rather well and at a very good range (although hard to tell how far exactly). I just want to be certain on what I want so I don't dither about when they eventually come back into stock and then miss out!
-
SSSSHHHHH, dont let people know you like something Mustang has used or you'll get banned from your favourite site! He's partly why i want to HPA this gun. Being a sniper is the other reason i want to HPA it as I rely on my pistols perhaps a bit more than others without an M.E.D. My pistols lacked the range in the colder weather last time i played! Another reason for HPA is wanting to get a Wolverine MTW next year. But ive gotta get some saving done first!

WE Extended mags collected at the weekend and tested them last night. Fed flawlessly. Next on the list is a H plate, Autobot rubber.......and the folding stock. I've ended up working 5 days of my 7 off (damn new trains) so with all that overtime I'm eying up a HPA set up!
-
It's nothing major but I held an MTW at the weekend and now I do, definitely need one. Didn't get to fire it as we couldn't find the line for it but gave it a cuddle instead!
-
Woop woop, handed this today! Had a few flyers when testing but nothing a bit of sanding won't fix! It's made a bit of a difference to the noise, I know there isn't much you can do with a GBB but still! Can't grumble for 20p! Time to break out the camo pens!

2 X WE 50RND Extended mags 1 x 50° Autobot bucking KMCS Green balaclava AAP-01 Lower and Upper rail kit Various Camo pens I'm sure I've bought something else, but can't quite remember what! -
I've ordered 2 X WE Extended mags from my mates shop (www.UKFOB.co.uk). Should get them this week. A work mates Mrs is 3D printing me a supressor. Don't quite know how it'll turn out but it's only costing me a 20p coffee out of the vending machine! If we're able to play in December, I might be HPA tapping the extended mags and borrowing a friend's rig to become and aggressive bush man!!
-
I've just been out in the garage to change the inner tube on my road bike, obviously couldn't not pick up a few pistols while I was in there. Stuck a couple of AAP-01 mags in my pockets to warm them up a bit while I sorted the tube. One mag on semi then the other burst rounds on full auto down the garden into the designated "BB bush"! God this gun puts a smile on my face! I'll get one of these WE mags ordered and let you guys know how it performs. Might have to ask Santa for the folding stock.....but I'll probably not be able to wait that long!!
-
Patrol base also have some 48 round extended mags by Vorsk for £35 Haven't really heard anything about them, Airsoft Mike "hoped they weren't Raven mags" and didn't seem that impressed with their standard Glock mag.
-
Anyone had an issues using WE Extended mags? I think I've managed to find a few so will grab them if they get the thumbs up!
-
I had a little play while I was waiting our curry to turn up. Zero to very minimal applied but to just demonstrate the difference I did a chrono at 0.2 and the 0.46's. Stuck them in my app to help plot things out!
-
I totally get what you mean. Changing the spring as you mentioned, seemed like the obvious first step that's all, especially as I've already got one. My impatience to get things done takes over sometimes! I've got decorating to distract me for a while though so I'll try my best to leave it alone before I get it adjusted right. Cheers, Rich
-
Ill perhaps have a play tonight and see what the FPS is. I'd like to go with the 0.46's so I'll swap the spring out to my M130 and see if that'll actually allow me to apply some hop before being over. It'll be a while until I can get the hop set as I've only about 20m to play with at home. I am on nights in a few weeks so could take it in and have a play there as their is plenty of space!

Medium sized update. Stripped the rifle down to get rid of the two tone now I've got my UKARA! I purchased a Gunsmithy TDC and had an email about the G-Spec ML Crazy Jet barrel being back in stock..... So I thought, why not. I wanted to see if it made any difference at all. So now we have this Also got a cheap spirit level scope ring. A bit of testing and with zero hop (bare in mind I'm just chrono'ing, no range testing is being done) it's kicking out 440fps ish. Massive difference, maybe I teflon taped it better than the last barrel, who knows. So I tested my Nov 0.46's and...........as @Groot has been experiencing, JOULE CREEP. Can't remember the FPS right now but 2.8ish Joules. Dropped the weight to 0.43 and then to 0.4 but even then, still slightly over on the joules. So, just what is a boy to do?
-
I've been looking at venturing in to HPA and the MTW looks like where I'd like to eventually end up! So I'll keep following! Good info so far though everyone, thank you.
