It's a long shot but can you find the original advert where you bought it from second hand? It would give people a bit of a better idea of what's actually inside the gun as it appears it's not stock - if they listed all the parts that is. The info would probably help any tech you end up sending it to. Failing that, try getting in touch with the previous owner if at all possible and ask them what parts they changed.

Use this link to go to playairsoft.uk and it'll show a map of the UK and all the sites on it.

You could probably do this yourself. Like Skara said, it's highly likely to be the ETU/MOSFET which is very easy to change. If I remember rightly it's in the PDW stock tube thing, should be a little board (red I think?) and it's got some spade connectors at the end. The ETU++ is £44 from AK2M4. I've had two of these ETUs fail on me - one in a ARP556 and another in L85. Both were fixed by using the Perun ETU++.

Today I visited a new site: Northern Spectres Airsoft situated in the grounds of Sedbury Hall, Scotch Corner. This site has only been open (nearly) a year. This site has one of the best setup safe areas i've seen. Large solidly built coverings with plenty of picnic tables available and space in the middle to move around in. Outdoors electrical sockets if you need to charge anything are also available and a couple of log burners. To the end of the safe zone was a hut looking out onto their small firing range which was also used for chrono. The safe area also has private changing areas, actual toilet facilities with running hot water. The site also offers hot food for a extremely reasonable price. As for chrono, this site does not operate at the standard FPS limits. Most of the FPS limits are slightly higher than the standard but because I am dumb, I forgot to take a picture of the sheet detailing the limits they use for AEGs, DMRs and snipers. The site itself is a pretty standard woodland fare with plenty of man made cover from tyres, wood and drums etc. The site has a few different structures with a small CQB area too. I spoke to the owner and he was showing & telling me about the plans they have for the site plus the ideas they have for a modular CQB space with lots of rooms and corridors than can quickly be changed so it doesn't become stale between visits. The player count today was pretty low, about 10 people attending, which is not normal according to one of the more regular players I spoke to. This meant the games were pretty much 5v5 all day and were kept to small areas to keep the flow of the day going. Several game modes like attack/defend, capture the flag, domination were played plus a game where you had to capture tubes and deposit them in your teams bin - the team with the most tubes wins. I took the Ares RDB out for it's second running ever. It worked fantastically for an hour before crunching the gears/piston. I took the gun apart and cycled it and it looked like it was working fine. I tried to field it again and it began crunching again - this time I retired the gun. I think it may have killed the piston teeth so there's a job for the next few days. I borrowed a G&G CM16 from the guy I went with to get me back into the games but had a lot of luck running with the TM Goldmatch in the CQB area. This site has real potential and if the owner is serious about what he was describing to me, the site could be fantastic. The one thing that needs doing is advertising as they seem to rely on word of mouth a lot. They do have an instagram and facebook but there really aren't many photos or videos of the site or players on there.

The best option would be to take it to a reputable tech near you or find someone trust worthy (and who knows what they're doing) and let them have a run at it. Some, if not most, techs will let you post your gun to them if you don't want to travel. The ARP9 is a good gun, i'd suggest getting it fixed rather than selling it. If you bought it online using paypal G&S, you could try pushing for a refund from the seller as it's not functional and I assume it was advertised as working.

This thing? Also there's a 3D printing thread HERE. If you can find the 3D print file (if it exists), you can ask if one of the people on there would print it for you.

This is why I take videos of RIFs I sell working before they go in their box as I also had one like that too. I sold some guy a working CYMA Mk12 SPR with videos of it cycling plus chrono results. I get a message a week or so later about how it doesn't actually work and he sent a video of him pulling the trigger and the gun just clicking but in the background, the full stock was laid on the table alongside an AEG spring plus a screwdriver. The guy buying it had been talking about putting a bigger spring it to bring it up to his sites DMR limits so I suspect he'd been tinkering, banged in a massive spring and broke something.

How do you know it's fake? What's the giveaway? I was thinking about asking the guy if he'd split from the lot having assumed it's legit so i'll hold off for now - thanks for the save.

G&P MP5 flashlight handguard - only to realise it's not a direct fit on G&G MP5s so I had to do a bit of scuffed DIY. Put it on my current MP5 as the other one is currently in pieces to replace the cocking handle. It looks like it's pitched at an angle in the picture but it's not something I noticed when fitting it. When the other MP5 is back together, i'll have a look at shimming it so it's level but i'm just happy that I managed to get it to fit. @WompRat This may be of interest to you. The problem with the G&P handguard is that it's missing the little 'hook' that latches onto the receiver to stop it being pulled off. You can buy the CYMA triple railed handguard and it also has this little hook piece as seen below: This little piece is just screwed into the bottom of the rail. I took that out and had to dremel a screwhole into the G&P handguard and attach the hook on the inside. It's a bit awkward to measure and I got it wrong the first time so there's an extra hole in the bottom of the handguard now - oops. When you get it right, it hooks right in and is rock solid on the gun. If you need me to measure where the screwhole is, let me know.

Exactly why I wouldn't mind picking one up at some point as i've got plenty of WE M4 mags and they're supposed to be compatible with the L85. Won't be any time soon unless a good deal pops up. Already got a Scar-H with a Kythera in it. I used to have a Scar-L AEG but sold it.
-
I don't know how others feel about it but I don't like how it looks. I think the only other addition i'd consider making is a GBB L85A2.

Finally, I have all three. ICS L86A2 LSW G&G L22A2(?) AFV ETU w/ SUSAT G&G L85A2 ETU w/ ACOG+RMR
-
I've had a bit of good luck in finding RIFs I want at a real discount. In addition to the L22 Carbine I managed to snap up a couple of days ago (see further up) I also found a guys ICS L86A2 LSW on an absolute steal. He says the FPS is low so it could be a quick service job but performance overall is pretty poor as it has no ETU and all internals are stock.
-
Was updating some of my sales posts when I saw this pop up for collection only in my town. The guy was 10 minutes away. It's the G&G ETU version as well which is a nice surprise and rotary hop already installed. Rifle has an issue where every 3/4 shots it sounds like it's grinding the gears. I can see a some black plastic bits on the outside of the gearbox which could be the all plastic piston being shredded up which is what happened on my standard L85A2. The seller suspects it's actually the motor that's giving up. When I get some time, i'll pull it apart but for now, very happy.

Finally getting around to posting after faffing about moving house. Picked up a boneyard JG AUG A3. The internal wiring is a mess and luckily another user on here had a Perun AUG MOSFET for sale. Now I just need the free time to work on it. Picked up a Ares Kel-Tec RDB17 for less than half the price of retail and the seller added a big flash hider which suits the rifle way better than the standard one. The seller also included TWO extra MOSFETs that come standard with the RIF which doesn't give me the greatest confidence about how well built the electronics are but I guess i'll find out. Sounds pretty snappy on an 11.1v lipo and the externals feel great. Definitely going to give this a run out when I next get to the field - I just need to figure out if my mags work with it as i've heard these RIFs can be pretty picky. A King Arms P90 and the extended barrel intended to mimic the PS90. Got it on sale from a retailer and found the extended outer barrel for ~£10. The same person selling the Perun AUG MOSFET also happened to be selling a P90 MOSFET so I grabbed that too. Not pictured: another boneyard G&G MP5 with some terribly applied two-tone. The charging handle had been snapped off and the gun is now in many pieces as I wait to replace the broken part(s) and strip the two-tone paint from it. For the new house, to clear out most of my bags/cases laying around, I bought a rifle rack/stand from ebay. It's kinda crappy but it works.

Also had a message from that person - got my hopes up about an AR57

First airsoft day of 2025 and another game at Armageddon Airsoft to blow off the cobwebs. Very good turn out today likely helped by the decent weather we've been having this past week. Due to other commitments, I didn't have much time to get things ready and brought along my usual Mk18 but this time I also carried in a JG Bar10 that i've been itching to use. In the Mk18 I had swapped to a "4uantum" AEG hop rubber and nub as i've heard good things about these online but to be honest, it performs like most other hop rubbers and it definitely didn't seem like it worked better than what I had in previously. I'll likely be swapping back to the Begadi 'Fly' hop rubber and Maple Leaf Omega nub. After playing the first two games with the Mk18 and eating through both batteries I swapped to the JG Bar10 before lunch. I chrono'd the rifle on site after adjusting the hop to find it was ever so slightly over the limit. Thankfully the site owner said it's fine as it's only just over but give an extra 5m-10m distance on the MED to account for it. I've never used a sniper before and the change in playstyle was a bit awkward at first but I soon settled into it. It did help that the first game I used it on was a defensive time-based objective with limited lives for us, the defending team. I did struggle with losing sight of my BBs at range, even using the maximum magnification of 6x on my LPVO. This made it hard to tell where they were actually going but i'm not sure how to resolve this issue if at all possible. Another guy running a sniper suggested black BBs but from what I read online they are even harder to see than white ones. All in all, I did enjoy the change of playsyle and the satisfaction of using a single BB to get a 'kill' - I just need to install the weaker spring so I don't have any chrono issues again. Equipment wise, the new chest rig worked well. It took a bit of getting used to having the two utility pouches on the side and getting into them was a bit fiddly but manageable. I'm used to running a chest rig with open top pouches with magazines inserts so I can reindex magazines with one hand. This rig has flaps over double-stack pouches so it's a two handed job most of the time due to the elastic. May have to invest in a dump pouch going forward. Hoping to go further afield this year and try out some new places.
