I’m not sure tbh as it’s for an ICS. But someone on fb has messaged me with a cyma one. Thank you tho.

Does anyone know of any uk suppliers that may possibly have a front sight/gas block for a cyma ak74? Managed to shear mine off today. cheers

Decided to give making a holster a go and blow off the old leather working tools. Bit rusty and rough around the edges as was thrown together to prove the design but I’m happy with it for a first attempt!

THIS ADVERT IS 'UNCOMPLETED' - THIS MEANS THE ADVERTISER HASN'T BUMPED THIS LISTING, BUT IT COULD STILL BE WORTH CONTACTING THEM.
- Wanted
- Used or as new

So having had my chrono arrive today I decided to test it before replacing a few bits. First chrono was around 230-240 FPS, and seeing as the rif is shooting a lot better than when I first got it im guessing it must have been sub 150 to begin with. Anyway, having double checked shims, replaced nozzle, piston, bucking and nub a quick re-lube, it is now consistent between 308-310 FPS. The air seal on the cylinder isn’t perfect and a bit of ptfe has been put in for now. But I think once I replace the cylinder head and possibly put a tight bore barrel in I could get it upto 330. However I’m happy where it is now and shall leave it be until I’ve used it a few times.

So I ended up picking the one with the hood. So far I’m quite impressed with it for the price. Feels solid and secure on the mount. zeroing feels solid and secure and clicks nicely with each adjustment. Dot is clear and visible on all 11 settings and I can’t see it being an issue in bright light. looking forward to a good game day to get a good trial with it.
-
Haha sound like a great idea at the time! And rule of cool counts for a lot! 😂
-
Haha I did think it when this one arrived! Definitely be done exercise after a full game day!
-
Very true, this is a very bulky side mount also.
-
Yea I was looking at that one, or possibly this one; JASHKE Airsoft Red Dot Sight Scope 1x30mm Holographic Sight Rifle Scope Sights with 11mm/20mm Weaver/Picatinny Rail Mount for Hunting https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B081CS6SDC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_N58B62JVZ1R70DF1R3RF or just a standard mini red dot.
-
Yea, it did originally come with a mini red dot which looked ok on it, was just knackered. Will probably get something similar.
-
Red dot it is then, cheers. I have a 20mm rail mount adapter that sits over the top cover and also has a side rail mounted.

Howdy, Looking for recommendations for a mid range sight, its for my AK74 so looking for something with a slight magnification but not huge. Also as I'm new i'm not looking to keep it cheap for now until I know what style suits me. Any recommendations/pics of similar set ups would be appreciated. Many Thanks Zitch

Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)
Zitch replied to Speedbird_666's topic in General Discussion
Yup agree as piman said, it was predictable and most other couriers and services have continued with very little delays or interruptions. UPS it seems to have had their heads in the sand and did not prepare for it well at all. -
Cheers, I was thinking either a perun ab or a merf 3.2 originally. Or I may just go simple and put a gate nano in for now.
-
Thanks a lot for that advice as I was actually looking for one with active braking. Will just go basic.
-
Cheers, yea the nozzle currently fitted seems pretty worn and doesn’t have any seals so I’m thinking to replace with a aluminium nozzle either single or double o ring. The ROF is ok for now, I think I’d rather put the budget into a nice mosfet and chrono for now. Maybe a few games down the line I will look at further upgrades to improve the rof, 13:1 gears etc, but for now I’m just aiming for good consistency and reliability.
-
So having done some more research and studying I decided to go back into the box today before I jump the gun and order bits I don’t need. Went further and pulled the trigger assembly apart also. so I wouldn’t say the cut off is worn, I also replaced the seals on the piston and cylinder and air seal is now good except with the nozzle, measured it up and shall be replacing the nozzle. I was also a bit less sure that the previous shimming was as good as I thought and it seems like it was shimmed too tight as after I had shimmed it the gears seemed to be able to freely spin a lot easier than before and sounds good. As for the over cycling, it seems to have all but stopped. Not sure what or why but it is 100 times better than before. I think fitting a mosfet to the unit should solve that issue. apart from that it’s just the nozzle to replace and possibly the motor as there is very little resistance when I spin the pinion by hand. quick re-grease and test fire and it is so much sharper and the FPS has definitely shot up (waiting on chrono to test) but the difference is really noticeable.
-
Yea it’s definitely had some history but I do like it and it’s turning into a little first project for me. I’m excited to see what I can do with it. Already learnt a lot from it so it will be good to see what I can get out of it.
-
Cheers, yea I had put ptfe behind the piston seal which sorted the air seal and to be honest the seal was fairly good with the nozzle so I should probably leave that alone I just wanted to replace it so i'm not relying on the ptfe for a good seal. Yea I am planning on fitting a ML macaron 60 and the spring guide is so that it is a bearing type. The spring i was going to replace as it seems very short and has a very rough cut job. The cut off is completely rounded so I am presuming it is causing the over cycle however the mosfet addition should also help with this. I do need to buy a chrono as well and want to have it at the start before I begin changing anything.
-
No not everything is that worn, piston seal is poor and old so id like to upgrade that to have a metal rack, the cut off lever is worn and does need to be replaced, and id like to add a basic mosfet as with the worn cut off it is over cycling. the barrel and bucking are just upgrades id like to do rather than are absolutely necessary.

Cybergun AK74Us - So after stripping down and seeing that a few things in my gearbox need upgrading, I am debating either just replacing/upgrading the worn parts or aiming for an increased ROF. Current basket/upgrades; Piston & Head Spring & Guide Inner Barrel Bucking/Nub Nozzle Cut off lever all Springs Mosfet Current gears and motor seem fine however I am contemplating fitting a 13:1 gear set, bearings and new motor. Has anyone done similar and recommend any other things to consider or parts? I currently have a basket on AK2M4 just waiting on pay day!

If you order and pay for next day delivery then really you should get it. That's why I always try and shop through Amazon where I can as Prime delivery is a game changer if you can get the bits you want.
Airsoft shops do seem to be a little archaic in their approach, 1-3 days for handling and then dispatch. No man, it's not hard, when I worked for a retailer/distributor if it was late PM and an order came in, the expectation was to make sure that order was read yfor the courier, not take 2 days to pick your nose and have a cup of tea.

Bought my first rif (2nd hand ak74) now trying to decide what to do internally when it arrives! Thinking general check/service. Replace bucking and shim just to start off.
Can’t wait to get it out in the field now! Few little issues but going to strip it down and service it today.
