  1. Hey just an idea... I think it would be nice to have an 'owners club's forum which can have individual sub forums dedicated to popular RIFs where all information can then be discussed in separate threads. For example the TM Zet platform (or MWS as it's more known) or TM Hi Capa platform including clones or ASG Scorpion Evo etc... it's great having all the information in one place like the MWS thread but you just get people whinging that the thread is too long. If it were in a sub forum where questions and discussions on specific things can have their own thread I think it may be more beneficial. Just a thought... The opening of a new 'owners club' could be made by mods only with a thread where people can request via a poll for a sub forum for a specific platform or RIF then if it receives say 15 votes a sub forum could be made for that platform/RIF. Hope that makes sense
  2. +1 to this too. I think it would be good to have a dedicated boneyard classifieds.

    THE TM MWS thread

    Any chance of some pics to help show and identify your issue?
  4. I went prime with everything. Built the drone from the ground up cost about 400 then oled goggles were nearly that again then all the batteries, chargers and small peripherals and a bag etc soon added up With airsoft got an MWS and 6 extra mags which was not far of the price of the rif itself, then a case, 2 types of red dots and a scope. Then 6 cans of gas. Bbs. Chest rigs. Goggles. Face mask. Chrono. Grease etc...
  5. I lm with you on that. I spent 1200 getting into FPV flying and 1400 on my first airsoft shop. Mind i went GBBR first so had alsorts of extras I needed to get me going.
  6. Welcome. You look like your taking a pretty sensible approach. I use one of these mesh masks and personally I think it's great. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07953M6Z6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apan_i_dl_5YXMAX5TEEC47GCHD7DX Has flexible cheeks so cheek welding and looking down optics is no issue and also has ear protection. As you imagined in your earlier post. It is no fun taking one to the ear so these are great and will work with most standard goggles or glasses. I'm using it with a valken goggle, cant remember which one now but they are fairly chunky and marry up with the mesh lovely.

    THE TM MWS thread

    Thought it wouldn't be much different. I have an NPAS installed so all good there. I use zeroone gas which is made by abbey so silicone free. Uses UPL instead. So I'm used to dry gas and lubing my rubber ?‍♂️?

    THE TM MWS thread

    Is there anything to note specifically when using this over green gas? May try it next winter.
  9. Welcome matey ??

    THE TM MWS thread

    That's strange I can get around 20g of gas into mine. I have 7 mags and fill the first for 4 seconds then the next right through each mag then back to the first. After around 3x 4 second fills for each I'll leave them a minute or two and then do the same again and I can get around 20g in each that way. Never felt the need to mod them.
  12. Just received the penultimate upgrade for my MWS... The SixG brass nub So small yet so powerful Thanks @Davegolf
  13. Hey, so I'm looking at buying a boneyard Scorpion Evo off of someone. It's in bits and he said it keeps locking up but shot fine when it didn't. He also said he is pretty sure it's all there as it's in a box in bits. I think the gearbox assy is assembled but the the rest of it i.e. the shell isn't. The shell has been sprayed with a pattern on it (distatsefully in my eyes, but each to there own). I want it for a custom build so intend on putting the all the mod cons in it like an ARL and faster gearset, cnc hop chamber etc. Main reason for buying is it will be my first AEG and I want to know how it ticks to learn the teching side so happy for a disassembled gun that will need parts fixing etc and I am very tech savvy and mechanically minded. What kind of price would you say it is worth in stated condition? I know these seem to sell for a higher fraction of new price n full working order compared to many other guns and would like to know I'm not over paying for what could essentially need a lot ploughed in to it. Thanks
  14. @Mr. No_Face sums it up well there. They are 2 completely different platforms and GBB definitely requires more care and attention. But don't be put off by the umpteen recommendations of not going GBB first if that's what you decide. Just be aware it's a much steeper initial learning curve.
  15. Honestly they are not as bad as people make out. The main thing is they do need maintaining after almost every game where as an AEG rarely needs much doing. Now if your like me and enjoy tinkering etc this is more of a positive over a negative. I love disassembling it and giving it a once over. And it only really takes 20 mins to remove the bolt wipe off and clean it, the receiver and the barrel and regrease it all ready for next time. Reliability wise only issue I had was I skipped the maintenance and the bolt ran dry by the end of the day. But just carry a tub of grease and this isn't an issue of stopping your game day. I like the noise of it cycling, the fact it locks back on empty and the low round count and having to reload etc.. really adds to the immersion for me. Some people like to just point and shoot so for them an AEG is better. But like I say know what you want from the sport and satisfy your needs. That's why there is such variety to what you can get. You will get maximum enjoyment out of it then.
  16. Welcome bud. I like you, heavily researched before being involved online and at games. So much so I had a shopping list well before my Ukara. My first ever game was in october 2021 and I am now the proud owner a TM M4A1 GBBR. I went against the common recommendation of starting with an AEG due to already knowing my reasons for wanting to play. I wanted realism and a mechanical RIF. The way the M4 works and how it sounds brings the biggest smile to my face. It's a feat of engineering but hey I digress. Just know what you want from it and take note on how you want to play in your rental days and I'm sure you won't go wrong. I bought my own eyepro and face protection after my first game as I hated the fencing style mask and it made that second rental game 10 times better than the first. It sounds like you are heading in the right direction. Don't be shy to get stuck in here it's a great forum. Lots to discuss. Have fun
  17. Hopefully this will sort your issues you have been having. Start with it fully closed and slowly test increasing the power until you hit the FPS you want. Hopefully this will restrict the power of the higher powered gas to something that wont keep breaking your nozzles.

    THE TM MWS thread

    I'm loving that analogy. I totally relate to that. Like i mentioned about this sunday, mine started to jam as I forgot to clean and regrease it after my last game. My fault. But now have done all that, man, the BCG slides like butter. It's unfortunate you are having such a hard time, but think of it this way... you have now learned several new things on fixing your MWS that you don't have to pay a tech to do. You will be proficient at fixing in no time
  19. Think you just had bad luck there. I have been running my MWS on green gas have had around 5000 rounds through it so far and nothing has broke yet. Any way good luck with the new nozzle. Ran it for the first time with the npas on sunday. Worked a treat. Did you buy one yet?
  20. Thanks for the offer. Got sorted now.
  21. Had an amazing time yesterday at District 23. The new noveske rail was great being able to get my foregrip further towards the front and the temporary solution to the barrel adapter worked a treat. Played for the first time with contact lenses in too and it was amazing, every thing was crystal clear. Also got to try out my modded goggles with some cheap £5 aliexpress turbine fans added to them powered off a small power bank on my hat. Didn't fog once all day for the first time even though i was sweating my ass off. All these little tweaks made yesterday one of my most enjoyable game days yet. There was around 40 people at the start. Which for the size of the site was awesome. Max capacity. The gameplay was solid all day with lots of rentals all giving it their best. Not one complaint of no hit taking at all. Some excellent firefights and competitive gameplay. Came back buzzing with a big grin. Only down side is my MWS started jamming on the last game, the bolt had just ran dry. Hadn't greased after my last game so my fault really. Will make sure to grease it after every game now. Lastly one poor guy decide to do a birthday run topless! He took the ensuing hail storm like a champ!
  22. So bought a Noveske rail but forgot to get the barrel adapter for my MWS. The rail came yesterday, was at work last night, and got a game at 2 today! So had to make a temporary solution... laser cut a small ply disk until I get a proper barrel adapter. Obviously cos it's a disk and not a proper adapter it doesn't quite fit flush to the receiver but it will do me for today. It's getting much closer to how I want it to look now. PS my school nickname was Stitch hence my little mascot.
  23. Shhh! Don't let the cat out of the bag!
  24. ? I had a feeling it may turn this way after searching and finding an old thread which went entirely in that direction. I don't want have to explain to the missus why she found a floppy dildo in my drawer, I fear she wouldn't believe me even for telling the truth ?
  25. Hey all, i would like to get hold of a nice training knife. TSblades are awesome but unfortunately not really bendy. My local site states needs to bend at least 90⁰. So can anyone recommend any 'nice' flexible alternatives? Most I have found on ebay etc are just plain boring. Sidenote I'm almost considering buying the TSblades grips and some rubber and making my own..
