Just a quick update and a glimmer of hope to those who worry about doing stuff to aeg's, I had about 30% confidence in this m4 but we took it out on Saturday to a skirmish and other than one of the mags playing up and not feeding properly, it worked a treat. Went through chrono fine as the spring had settled and enough hop on a 0.28g to be decently accurate. Happy days. On to the g36....😂

Well today I finally got to have a decent look at the TM G36C that I got a while ago. Love the fact that it still has the "heavy weight" 0.25's in the packet and the bag of "don't shoot the dog" documents. It shoots, it's probably ok as a cqb, it has a torch holder on the right hand side so I think it's done most of its work indoors. I think this is from around 2000ish. 😱😁

People not selling the exact part I need so I have to go back to looking for really weird bits for my broken pews. 😂 (Although to be fair I'm slowly depleting Mr huttarmouries pile of bits 😂😂)

Thats cool. Maybe i should hunt down its little brother and have a matching pair Just need to find some space on the wall of toys now...running out of space!!

I put a small oring on mine, makes it pretty solid and doesn't move really.

Just finished putting the boys TM M4A1 back together after a lot of trying to get it to work. It's gotta be 20+ years old. Love the scope on it too. Cracking little pew. Best road test it at the next skirmish day. 😁❤️👍

Ooooh. Yeah. Baby. So I poked about a bit more and found that the barrel moved back and forth in the hop chamber, which isn't great obviously. So I cleaned it up with ipa and added a couple of turns of Ptfe tape to the outside of the rubber. Put it all back together and boom. 1.317J on a 0.28g. a touch too high granted but it feeds. It shoots. May have overdone the spring 😁 I'll get some pics up in a bit of it in all it's annoying glory. Thank you guys. Always helpful to those with silly pews...❤️❤️👍😂

I have a zci rotary in it now. the original was missing along with the barrel. It fits, its tight against the gearbox and the foregrip. it definitely aint moving! I have a concern though. just been doing the googles and it appears that MOST m4 nozzles are 21 point something long. the one that's in it is a 20.7mm. i wonder if the original owner tried to do things and put in the wrong nozzle. I mean, the tappet plate was wrong, so why wouldnt the nozzle be. Ok, back to the drawing board...best go and buy some nozzles...

This is slowly becoming a wall hanger. Shame really, its a nice pew. Theres no space for a spring in front of the hop unit, o rings wont fit either. the nozzle is clearing the feed tube but i'm not sure its going far enough forward to seal on the hop rubber. Cant remove any material from the hop unit to bring it back further as the mag wont fit.... catch 22.... has anyone actually done this or am i attempting to bring a corpse back from the dead?

And almost a year to the day..... I chewed up the threads on the outer barrel...the Cherry bomb muzzle doodad is now all floppy and no one likes a floppy cherry bomb.... Where can i get an outer barrel? do others fit?

Did you find one?

Just a matter of nozzle length now I think. It's still a bit meh.

I have a JG SD, it's about 15 years old, done many MANY rounds through it and it refuses to die. Only recently done some work on it, a tad on the fiddly side but once you get the hang of it, it's fine.

Maybe, just maybe, the V3 tappet plate in the V2 gearbox that was installed by the previous owner wasn't the smartest move..... I dunno. Some people....😳🧐
