  1. When mine broke (Which is why I had to replace the hop unit), after I left it out because I thought it was useless I was getting 2 bb's roll out the barrel at a time almost consistently. That's why I believe it's some kind of stopper for the bb
  2. I spent a good few hours looking at rail mounted sling mounts and yeah, I found nothing similar at all. Annoyingly the guys I'm building an impression on all happen to have the B&T mount haha https://photobw.info/heer/division-schnelle-krafte/luftlandebrigade-26/luftlandeaufklarungskompanie-260 I have some other little bits to sort out on the rifle anyway, such as getting the barrel length shortened by about .5", getting the outer barrel the correct thickness/colour and getting the correct flash hider fitted. Gives me some time to knock out a 3d print of one until I can source a real one haha
  3. To my knowledge, you’re correct. Hell, even some G36’s don’t have it either lol
  4. In my experience, just another part to break and fall out 😂 My guess was that I think it's a bb guider, helps push it forwards and stop double feeding?
  5. Not the correct one for the maglite, but you can always jubilee clip it (Which is what I had done to mine, with ironically the MP5 you bought from me 😂)
  6. Respectfully, you're asking for a way around the UKARA policy - Which quite frankly is the only thing stopping every tw*t from waltzing into an airsoft retailer, buying a "well sick pistol bruv" and using said pistol for ill intents. Next thing you know, headlines read "AIRSOFT IS BAD, VERY BAD!" and the public demand it be banned forever because it's very scary and people have guns and do crime. My example is exaggerated, obviously, but given how close airsoft has came numerous times to being shut down fully in the UK you have to realize why people are giving you this answer. But, to answer your initial question to keep it "on topic" I doubt there are more than 5 retailers willing to risk their livelihood for the JustCos policy and I would be sceptical of any retailers that do accept it.
  7. +1 for them, that's where I got mine from too. I ordered the wrong size originally, sent them an email and they replaced them with the correct size in barely any time at all.
  8. Went to a game today with 2 replicas, left with 3... Saw this beautiful LCT VSS on the preowned wall and fell in love with it instantly. Doesn't shoot as perfectly as I'd like, definitely needs some work with the hop up but wow it's amazing to hold. First time owning an LCT, reviews of the internals has me a little worried but it can't be any worse than my G36 😳
  9. I use originals for reenactment, no doubt they'd be fine for airsoft too but obviously they're quite expensive and also depending on shoe size, rare. I would suggest looking at the German issue ones, as they're ALMOST the same. They absolutely pass the distance rule, made to last, and are a lot cheaper than real ones. They're what I use for airsoft, just to save the originals as best as I can.
  10. Sadly this is the norm for all repro jungle boots, some sooner than later. From my experience, SOF have always been great with their returns for shit products. I would hope they would refund or replace though.
  11. Hopefully, none. To my knowledge, Just-Cos isn't a valid defence for a RIF.
  12. Hey everybody, I have one final part to source to finalise my Luftlande G36KA4 build… The B&T Rail mounted sling loop. B&T won’t ship to the UK, so looking for somewhere in the UK that has one, or a replica of said sling mount. Anybody know of any replicas, or have any sources for one?
  13. I’m the complete opposite. Everything gets chucked into it! Odin speed loader, green gas, spare batteries, food, medications, tools, soft cover, towel, eye pro, spare eye pro, face pro and if there’s some room left a few more mags 😂
  14. An A1 receiver with A2 handgrips, and the front post sight is backwards 🤢
  15. This G36KA4 build is going to be the death of me. Parts held at customs and incurred charges. The hop up I managed to get fitted has fell apart. The K length inner barrel has put the fps to 360 and the selector plate has failed. All a few days before I’m going to a game 🤬

      Hey bud, I switched the stock out from one of my other models. The A4 uses the standard IDZ stock. It’s an S&T stock which went on perfectly. I got it originally from bespoke but they only have tan now. 
       

      I’m trying to source the concaved version as it’s more kosher to the build but the S&T one I have on my C doesn’t lock into place at all. It’s a nightmare 😂

      It does my nut in having the matte nylon of the Specna stuff (hensolt carry handle scope/dot, KV stock) with the shiny squeaky externals of a JG that's fuck knows how old lol, honestly scared to buy any more stuff for the thing as I've pumped enough money into it (what started as 'hm i'll see if i can get this amp draw issue fixed it's overheating' turned into 'hm let's send it to neg down south and spend 300 quid on a second hand JG I bought off used airsoft) lmao

      And now it's playing silly buggers and skips half the rounds in the mag intermitently, even on 7.4 : (

      I know the pain. I have 4 JG’s from varying years, they all have their own issues. The KA4 was an ares/Umarex I got from here, wanted to replace the burst fire so tried an S&T gearbox that worked fine but couldn’t take a gate titan. Stuck an old gen (No QSC etc) JG gearbox into it after retrofitting and then I’ve had nothing but issues since 😅 The new Lonex hop up works, the titan works (Although the selector plate is a pain in the rear as there’s no instructions on where to put the white sticker for a g36), but the ares lower doesn’t like the JG gearbox and putting the selector too far on safe locks it up, or putting it too far on auto causes the selector plate to slide off of the gearbox. It’s truly a nightmare I wish I never started BUT it’s going to look so good once the new parts I got are fitted (Hopefully a picture tomorrow with it all fitted the day before I take it out 🤞🏻)

  16. I want to list on the classifieds the parts I didn’t use on my m16 build such as: a fully working gearbox Lower receiver Upper receiver assembly (it’s in parts as it splits in two halves) Hop unit and barrel As it’s all working, would it go into “parts” or “boneyard”? I know it’s not super important but better safe than sorry 😂
  17. Could a feature not be added to disable messages via an advert, if an advert is completed, or automatically removes listings after x amount of time once it’s completed?
  18. Anybody have a VFC G36 (GBBR) mind doing me a favour and sending a picture of the receiver with the handguard off? Want to make sure they can take real parts before buying one

      I've got a WE one which I can take a pic of. But no idea if the VFC would be the same.

      Hey Nick, thanks. Got a WE myself and sadly it doesn't take the ultima handguards. I managed to find a video where somebody did showcase it with the rail off, and it has the sides filled in (Which means no giant gap when fitting the new gen H-Key rail)image.thumb.png.be05b87b1d8d5c1cd032aa2b7f8653cc.png

      VFC takes real steel everything pretty much, including the stock etc. Check out Heavy Recoil Club Discord.  

  19. I can now confirm the Lonex hop up does indeed fit an Umarex G36 shell, and works beautifully with a JG gearbox retrofitted. I’m getting 336 with 0.4 variation on .2g bb’s with everything in the JG being stock (Minus the mosfet) I haven’t fixed the selector, but my local regular site is semi only anyway so I’ve configured the titan to be semi on both auto and semi, and told the mosfet “semi” on the selector is also auto. Not a great fix, but it worked!
  20. It definitely hasn’t put me off using him, just purely based on how polite he was. I have a few stanag mag plates I’d like to get engraved eventually from him. Plus, his prices are really reasonable and the turn around is great also. He quoted me £22 for the Springfield trades on the m14, with the matching serial number on the bolt. That’s including him matching the font and designing the markings too
  21. In a turn of events, one of the hop units I initially disregarded (https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/lonex-enhanced-hop-up-chamber-unit-for-g36-series) has actually fitted perfectly into the Umarex body. However when I went to test it all, my selector plate is lifting and getting caught, meaning I can’t switch back. TL;DR version: don’t buy a g36 they suck 😂
  22. I just hope it’ll fit the Umarex body. I’ve got a few other hop units coming to test them all. Ones got to work 😬
  23. I sent him my M14 to get engraved and unfortunately it did end up getting messed up due to him only being able to engrave flat surfaces. At least now he’s found out his limitations 😂 He was an absolute gem to deal with and can’t fault his representation.
