Magpul MOE K2+ for me. its a steeper grip angle which is good if you’ve got compact PDW stock. alternatively the MOE+ is very good. you have a rubberised grip and a compartment for skittles.

Having owned both a WE open bolt and an MWS, I’d recommend the MWS. Theres nothing wrong with the WE open bolt, however it struggled with cold weather and the after market parts required a lot of grinding and filing to fit. My MWS runs fairly happily in the single digits we’ve had recently. My AKX has performed very well in sub zero where the MWS has struggled. However, by comparison, my WE SCAR L would have given up around 10-15C. if you want realism, then the VFC systems are much better. My bugbear with the MWS is that it takes AEG furniture so lots of the cool stuff isn’t available in MWS spec or is super expensive because it’s specifically made for the MWS.

These posts always make me laugh. He wants you to spend nearly £1000 (more than retail) on a “heavily modified internally” AKX… but cba to list what he’s done to it to make it worth so much. Again wants near retail for the MWS and Kriss. -

For sale: brand new, made to order display stands for your kit. I currently have stands for the following: Glock Hicapa HK45 GHM9K (MP9 version) PCC45 MP7 Pistol stands are £9 plus postage (£4 flat rate) the SMG/PCC stands are £15 each plus postage (again, £4 flat rate). Base colours are blue or black. If you want other base colours, contact me and we’ll see what we can do. logo colours: black, blue, white, red, gold, glow in the dark (£1 extra). I have other colours I haven’t tried yet. Also have to look at doing bespoke stands if you want them customised within reason.£9

So I’ve almost finished modifying my PCC45 - most of the MWS upgrades have been drop in. The SD rail took a little modification but just a couple of minutes with a file as the rail interferes with the lower receiver.

I hope you plan on giving the gas back after you’ve used it 🤣 as people have said, green gas in fine. In my experience, the hicapa slides are robust - I’ve been running a DOR with stock slide for several years now on green gas. I just switch to ultrair in the summer.

- clean regularly: wipe down surfaces and remove excess dirt and oil from all the moving part surfaces. - clean the barrel regularly (I clean the barrel after every game day) using a strip of microfibre cloth and an airsoft barrel cleaner. - reapply oil to the moving parts. Silicone oil for plastic-plastic or metal-plastic parts. Using something like white lithium or PTFE spray. You only need a tiny amount.

Seen on a WhatsApp sales group - Someone else has defends the bonkers price by suggesting that Nicco is the Michael Jordan of Airsoft and that’s why you’d pay so much for a gun he’s touched! -
So mine arrived on the weekend. i ordered two however that hasn’t panned out. One arrived with a factory defect (cracked nozzle). The second one is below. I’ve put a SCW stock on it. Seems to cycle well on ultrair at room temp. Haven’t tested the power or consistency of shots as the one I’m planning on changing the inner barrel and hop rubber soon. largely MWS compatible. MWS hop unit, MWS BCG, MWS trigger box, MWS spec stock tube.

Full steel Loki Tactical cerakoted in Armourer black by West Laser! the slide was lost in the post by RM… however Joe managed to get the whole job turned around and to my door in 48 hours after they found the package and delivered to him. its quite snappy for such a heavy (G34 length) slide and comp.

tools I’d recommend: - Decent multi-head screw driver - I have a 100 piece Aldi one that so far hasn’t lacked in type or size of fixture head. - get two decent valve keys - not the all in one triangle ones: output valve key injection valve key - silicone oil for rubber and plastic parts. I use a GHK gbbr oil which I personally think is the best around. some sort of metal lubricant. I use white - lithium but that’s not the only option. gas wise - depends on the pistol you buy, but for plinking in the garden and a Marui. Ultra air is very cheap in bulk and will run the HK45 fine. 25s are fine as well. Never tried the brand you’ve mentioned but I assume they’re half decent.

You won’t get 50fps increase. As @herosharksaid, you’ll typically get 10fps. depending on the shape of the nozzle, you can get negative efficiency effects as the nineball router is curved and maybe TM clones (like WE) use a flat router, creating an airseal problem. personally, if you’re experiencing things like hammer failures as stock, I’d avoid fitting the gas routers and look at upgrading the weak points of the pistol such as the hammer set.

Another one I finished last night: 10-8 G19 Gen4. C&C Tac KKM barrel. Using the TTI hops in just about everything I build.
-
Complete Guarder Steel G34. Built this from nothing with almost entirely steel parts. Went with a TTI hop unit as they’re substantially better than the OEM style hops. I plan on using this for CQB games, so it has tritium sights as well.

Entry for the week and it’s only Monday 😭 £1100 for a used and abused MWS with cosmetic damage and issues 🤣 I also love the backchat and sass to members trying to save him from a ban 😂 -
This crossed my path this morning. Ended up pre-ordering one through JKArmy given the price and potential. It looks like an interesting concept - an MWS rifle using TM hicapa mags. https://shop.jkarmy.com/sa-pcc-h75-bk.html Won’t be released until January, so I probably won’t receive mine until late January/February. But I thought I’d create a thread to talk about it.

I always interpreted it as a “production calendar”. maybe that’s wrong, but it logically made sense to me. they ear marked November 2023 (or whenever it was) to produce the Gen5. By the time it was despatched to retailers, it was January. They then ear marked Most of the gen5s will have gone to the Japanese market before being opened to international distributors. As far as I can tell from the TM website, there’s been no batch of gen5s this year. It’s probably residual stock they’re trickling out to distributors.
