  1. What is it lacking? What have you done so far? If you've done nothing I'd start with getting the barrel throughly cleaned and the hop set.
  2. Are you going wide bore barrel, really wide bore. ;)
  3. I'd second max when it comes to therapy bands. I've been using them to help rehab my knee after reconstruction surgery.
  4. I wouldn't glue the nozzle to the tappet plate but I might adjust the plate. You mentioned pushing the plate, but don't say which way you are pushing it; towards the nozzle, into the cycle direction, up into the nozzle. If it is up into the nozzle i might consider hot water or heat to adjust the plate.
  5. High c for the win. I'm sure the batteries I use are 75c
  6. The krytac has a mosfet already so you should need to worry about contacts and that page doesn't say anything about voltage so I'd suggest try it. I'd always use a battery that can handle what'd be asked of it. I'd rather the mosfet ie than a lipo pushed into failure next to my face. Treat them with respect and lipo can be great batteries, I use a lot of them.
  7. Generally its fine but that's a loaded question. It would depend on the aeg in question. The lipo will only give what the system demands and in worst case scenario, die trying. Some manufacturers think its okay to use the battery as the limiting factor and recommend batteries with low 'C' ratings so the battery suffer voltage drop and keep running rather than burning out poor quality components.
  8. A friend of mine has just fitted one o these and is over the moon with the performance. He's just made the jump to 11.1 as well. Active brake should fix the over spin, the setting would be dependant on the system but the instructions are easy to follow.
  9. If its from ak2m4 then its worth asking. I'd still look at the mag spring for the mags which have an issue as you already said all the other midcaps feed and fire fine and that uts just the 200rnd ones that don't. I seem to recall people that have the large midcap pts mags having similar issues, just too much pressure. I know I have zci barrels and maple leaf rubbers in nearly all my rifs and use nothing but mid and low cap mags.
  10. It might be foxed with a new tappet spring, or cutting a loop or two from the spring you have in already, to tighten it up and put more tension on the nozzle. But If you try not filling the mags completely and the issue resolves then I'd look to either bind or clip the magazine spring if it's a magazine that's already had significant use. If however it's a new magazine I'd try filling it completely, and leaving it a while, then trying again as the time spent under compression will take some if the strength out of it.
  11. Unless the barrel is sitting too far back into the hop unit I doubt the barrel is the issue, if it were then all of the mags would feed poorly. As Asomodai mentioned its likely midcap syndrome and nozzle combination.
  12. It should fit, though it might me worth having a look at ak2m4.co.uk They usually have standalone shells and if you retain the components from your current box it'd be cheaper and make changes that you want to.
  13. I've had grips with sections of relief in them for tape switches to sit in, mostly vertical grips and bipod types. in the end I've given up on them, the angle is never quite right for my hand positions or length of fingers. I started using heat shrink or tape on better grips and more recently I picked up some sectional elastic sleeves and they have been great.
  14. As you mentioned don't opt for a clone. One of the fpv guys I fly with opened a clone up out curiosity and it wasn't a good thing to seeing long that people are buying these and then charging large lipos with them. If your looking at a new charger I'd suggest looking at hobby shops. I use hobbyrc.co.uk a lot and the customer service has always been great. They stock sky rc and idst chargers, both of which are solid and worth a look.
  15. Having been through a very similar situation recently, with John Lewis and a vr headset thermal shutdown issue, I wish you best of luck. Just make sure you have everything in writing and record calls where it can't be done via email.
  16. G&g do a metal mag for 308 range, if you want that sr25 look. Not cheap though. https://www.surplusstore.co.uk/manufacturers/g-g/g-g-g2h-308-metal-magazine-100rd-mid-cap.html
  17. I've mixed capacity before as the packs are the same cell count but don't mix cell counts (different total voltage). If all your packs are resting at the same voltage then its OK. For a good guide it's worth having a run through videos by Joshua Bardwell as a good guide. If you do decide that it's not for you then I'd look at a multipack charger. Skyrc and isdt both do a good duel charger, it's effectively two chargers sharing a psu, but you can set each one separately.
  18. I use them for flight batteries and they can be used safely. Do some reading around parallel charging lipos, then decide if it's for you. If all you batteries are the same then its easier.
  19. There's the g&g 308 range with a range of models all having different barrel lengths
  20. I picked up one of this sellers protectors the other day, for a light, and the quality is good.
  21. If its been sat about might have been dry orings bleeding air. Cycles through some lube and re-seated and sealed up so carry on. Glad you got sorted.
  22. Streamlight do make some good stuff. Have a wander over to tactical waffles. Site is minimal but the chap who runs it often has high end light setups for sale on a discord thread I'm on so I'd give him a shout via the contact point on the site.
  23. That's unfortunate, I'd agree with nick, start at the hop and air seal then work your way back. It's unlikely that a it's going tongain performance from nowhere, much more likely that's an issue being hidden by spring weight that occasionally works effectively.
  24. You'll need an aeg buffer tube with mounting hardware, then you'll likely have to cut down the mounting tube to match the length required in the buffer tube or make a spacer. You'll also need an aeg sling plate to seal the back of the receiver and guide the wiring into the tube. Ak2m4.co.uk is a good place to start for buffer tube, they had some with hardware included.
