Decent Plate Carrier for Milsim feels and looks. Decent Haley style chest rig for everything else. I run my plate carrier because of its real estate but I prefer to run stripped down with my chest rig. Which carries 80% of what i need and i can deal with that.

Firstly are you using 11.1s or 7.4s? You need 11.1s and you can get ones that fit in the standard grip. My Vector needed a cut down M120 to get to 350 fps. It sounds to me something is struggling. Even though its new, that means nothing in terms of how well it was put together. Take the box apart. Check for missing teeth, bad shimming, over grease etc. I had a Vector and its was really snappy in stock form with an 11.1. So while this will be obvious, you have an issue somewhere and you are going to need to get into it to work out what. Also the vector has propriety parts. So yeah... This could be fun for you. That said, it might be that you are feathering your trigger faster than the gun can actually work. That being the case, a short stroked or dsg gearbox is your future.

Expectation Reality

I am going to be brutally honest. Do not expect much. In my personal opinion. Airsoft at night, unless you have gucci nods. It's shit. Yeah you can sneak around for a bit and its fun enough if you are in a urban site that is actually well lit. So you can use the new shadows to go ninja. On sites where its just dark and you have to move by torch. Its generally really shit. In woodland, meh you will spend more time tripping over stuff or walking into shit than actually shooting. THEN when you do actually try and shoot something. You cannot tell what is hitting what, unless you want tracers. You will think you hit someone, you will be sure of it. You will get frustrated and then head back to bed for an early rise the following day. Sorry.

Or go the other route. Go heavy, loaded plate carrier, belt line, helmet, back pack etc. Rock a support gun with extra ammo. Under your winter BDU's, wrap your entire body in clingfilm and really sweat out those calories.

No one is going to care if you are husky at an Airsoft game. Yes, you might get a few comments, but that's going to be the same in pretty much any situation you will find yourself in. Nothing can be done about that and needs to be risen above. As long as you get stuck in and take your hits, you will find new friends. Simple as that really. Side note, most of us are rocking dad bods anyway. We aren't all chizzled action heroes

Op, politely.... you built your T10 wrong. All upgraded snipers will perform the same based on the quality of the barrel, the quality of their hop and the consistency of the power.

Depends entirely what FPS your site allows. The sites i have used the DMR at are running 450fps on 2s. Which is mildly short of a bolty at 500fps. I have tried .32s and they are ok. I used .45s at 450fps and it went flat and straight of a scary distance. People say you need to up the bucking for 4+ but i've not had that with the stock TM and the SIX6 But everyone is different

That's him on the left

I have a DMR build and it functions very well. Honestly, I would keep it simple and you need to go much heavier on the bbs G&P NPAS SixG Nub 0.45s Geoffs Run on Propane The NPAS you can mod to take an allen key and you will always been good to use a little bit of threadlock to keep the screw in place. Other than that, you should be good to go. Longer barrels dont make it more accurate and when a friend of mine tried building his MWS with one it just cocked it all up. Removed it and it was good as gold.

OP. Try before you buy. You will either love or hate. Expensive if it turns out to be hate. Stick with the TM's and dont dick around by "upgrading" their internals. It will make them worse.

Take it apart, spend £20 on mapleleaf bucking and omega and put it back together. You wont be unhappy

That said. There is a little known law that states all M14's MUST look like this one

I don't disagree but in the UK if you are running rental power, you will be out range by everyone else on the field. The stock hop on the stock TM is fine but it struggles to lift heavier rounds and even getting to it compared to a normal AEG is a pain in the fucking tit. Don't get me wrong. I am not against expensive AEG's. I am currently sitting here refurbishing all my PTW Pmags

As HPA is the gayteway drug to speedsofting.

Bucking https://www.thecageairsoft.co.uk/maple-leaf-macaron-hop-up-rubber-aeg/ Nub https://www.thecageairsoft.co.uk/maple-leaf-omega-hop-up-tensioner-nub/ How to

Op the best out of the box gun is the one where you spend 2mins removing the upper and swapping out the hop rubber for a maple leaf 50 or 60 and the matching omega nub. This can be done by the most noobie of noobies and requires literally no skill or knowledge of AEG's to achieve. Remove two bolts, lugs. Gently pull upper forwards. Remove hop from barrel, bish bash bosh. You have the most accurate AEG achievable. Personally I would avoid recoils like the plague, they are piss poor power out the box and a whore to work on compared to every other AEG on the market. I would look at a https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/specna-arms-daniel-defense-mk18-sa-e19-edge I got one of these second hand an upgrade the hop and spring in under 5mins. It is as good as my 1k Recoil that I sold because they keep breaking after you up the power and ROF. Really any AEG with the hop upgraded is going to more accurate than any out of the box AEG and it is sooooo simple to do. SO SIMPLE! Don't drink the TM Recoil coolaid.

@harley 3370 https://www.begadi.com/tuning-internals/aep-lang-und-kurzwaffen/cyma-aep-motor.html?___store=en&___from_store=de I am not 100% sure this will fit but it should.

You are a very forgiving person.

Sorry to hear this. The shit game play and chock points was obvious to me from the layout of the site. The lack of chrono and dangerous play is unforgivable.

Future war'ing intensifies

Honestly do not think you will. I had a look at all the places I would go to. All are out of stock. The Well R7 which is a clone option, also globally sold out. You could try these guys. https://www.kingdomofairsoft.com/?fbclid=IwAR06Y3iqQYCMFfaaZNLiO_eYKIxxDy_zTGIdp4pfR1rwp8CEGV4_BH2tKU0 I think they used to make their own version of an AEP motor. Best advice. Sell it as a bone yard build and buy a TM MP7 GBB

Run by a bunch of arrogant French assholes. If something goes wrong, they basically tell you tough luck and to deal with it yourself. Even asking a simple question, gets you a very curt response Only reason these guys exist is because they have access to some rare stuff. Use Redwolf in Japan or https://emperionstore.com/ you might have to wait a few days more but they look after you and they will work out cheaper.
