[inaccuracy issues]

Have you tried cleaning the Jack unit/nozzle? You never know it could be bit of lube or something inside the nozzle effecting it

[33g CO2]

Just wondering if anyone knew of place to get them cheap?

 

I was originally buying them from high pressure airsoft. But they don’t seem to have any. 
 

Cheers, Mike 

[Inconsistent first shot]

Alright guys and gals?

 

Played with my Kythera today at Z-mart. Great performance and highly recommend people try one. 

But my first shot was reading 20 or so fps higher than the rest that followed. Wait half a minute and again the first shot would be higher. 
Anyone else had this issue?

 

My guess is my regulator (ugs) could do with a bit of clean as I’ve been running Co2 through it for a year or so before today and the bulbs can be pretty dirty. Or maybe an air leak between the reg and engine? But any other ideas would be welcoming

 

This didn’t really hinder my day, I still got Into some tasty fire fights and pulled off some great shots. Plus it was close and personal anyway, so range wasn’t an issue

Cheers, 

Mike

Nice, I can finally get the shims I need 👍

 

To OP, I had to pay about £13 in duty taxes after ordering a kythera and a few other bits. I paid it and the vat as soon as I got the email and it go through okay. Though as highpressureairsoft are back up it's worth looking at them

I just saw 😍

 

anyone know if I select yes on the added custom grip line, the original macro line comes as well? 
there isn’t a ‘No’ selection

Anyone ordered from them lately? Ran into any custom charges, etc?

I’m after a kythera and seeing that super5ives are out of stock and HighPressures website still ain’t done. I’m getting impatient and considering ordering from abroad. Or if anyone knows of another UK retailer I’ve missed, that’d be great. 

[Anyone play at Forest of Dean paintball and airsoft?]

As the title asks really! Anyone play/played there? Is it any good and do they provide air refills for air tanks?

 

Only just found this place exists and it’s only 2 mile away from me. Hoping it’s be a good site for those local Lone Ranger days when your mates can’t be arsed to play 

[HPA newbie----help.]

I’ve been using Polarstar Jack for years and have had a V3 fusion engine before as well. 
 

If you want maximum customisation and enjoy tinkering around with settings I’d go for a Fusion engine or a F2. From my understanding the only difference between the two is the fusion engine replaces the whole gearbox and the F2 is drop in cylinder unit.

If you want something that you can drop in a play and not fuss around with too much, like what I wanted. Id go for the Jack. It’s a dumbed down version of the drop in cylinder units with minimal customisation.

All the units you able to select different rate of fires, poppet dwell, fire settings, safe/semi/auto, safe/burst/auto, safe/semi/semi, etc

just the Fusion and F2 you have more to play with.

The Kythera from my understanding is simply a mechanical,closed bolt, semi only,  plug and play sort of thing. Something that interests me.

Your gonna need something to power it. Air or Co2. Personally again like I did, your new to HPA. Stick to air! Get yourself a paintball tank, a regulator and a line. You can get a product called an IGL which replaces the macro line coming from your engine. To save you a headache from it breaking on you mid game. I’d get one.

Can’t comment on Wolverine products simply cos I ain’t used them.

 

Hope this helps, always here to help

This is my gat. Just to show you what you can do with HPA

 

 

[Back in the game]

Hi guys. 

Used to play in a team called Bristol Recon, under the call sign Br19 Magic. Before leaving and joining a new team called The Alphas, under the same name (still called this by friends now) before calling it a day. 

Slowly working my way back into game. Playing sites that ain’t too far way from my home, investing in a bit of new kit, etc. 

I’ve only ever ran one gat ever since I converted to HPA years ago, but eventually opted to run Polarstar D’s 33g Co2 Ugs. Use to buy my capsules from highpressureairsoft but there website is under maintenance/construction. Can anyone recommend any other places to get them at a decent price?

Cheers, 

Mike
