Oh I don't doubt the potential of any gasgun, just I wasn't aware of any bolt in upgrades that actually work. Ive never found KWA to particularly accurate and rangey Steel targets are good to shoot, obvious audible hit. Google maps measured distance.

Errrrr really!! Please can you do a shooting video? Have a strange attraction to the Vector but I've always felt it a bit er useless range/accuracy wise and I don't play enough CQB to justify the outlay!

Re bolt carriers - the UAC aluminium one is nicely made and really speeds up the cycle. Much snappier and better in the cold. Its worth spending a little time with a file and cleaning up around the area the trigger reset hits the BCG.

How on earth did everyone gloss over the fact that THIS MAN GOT A FREAKIN VECTOR AT HIS WEDDING!?!!

I know it's good to have cheap products but does annoy me that they can get away with ripping of Pencott materials ? Same the world over in this day and age tho.

It's hard to say, depends massively on how much shooting you do! Full auto actually uses less battery power to by the way Most sites have on site charging or at least a power source, you could always top yours up at lunch if you've been heavy on the trigger! Doesn't hurt to carry a second battery regardless.

Just stick to a healthy TM bucking

Yeh I realised my comment was retarded as it's clearly anodised aluminium so nice and light!

The BCG weight looks like a great idea, I mean I'm not into 'weight' but loving the 3 way rollers,should be slick!

Just wow! Where is the real @Wo1f that answer was too techie

Most likely dirt or dead bucking: clean out barrel, check bucking isn't contaminated and is clean, check the BBs aren't picking up dirt from inside the mags.

Going on your nuprol chart (which is good gas to use BTW) you want to maintain around 9 bar operating pressure.

WOWZA!

Oh yeh great workout for sure! i find the gun itself is quite well balanced, you need a sturdy comfy rig for the mags, they're the dead weight!

Yeh come on, nice box but where's the candy!?

My new platform for my new 'offensive' pistol build, been waiting all year to pull the trigger on this one

Exactly. If you completely remove the tube and the mag is fully topped of with gas (liquid) then there is a very large variation in FPS output due the larger extremes of pressure in the mag, as well as the increased potential of liquid gas vent if first shots are at an extreme angle (IE shooting up or down from a tower for example). The whole idea of the tube is to create a volume for gas. The original TM tubes do this to the extreme limiting the amount of gas storage available. By leaving some tube your having your cake and eating it - more gas capacity / shots per mag and good shot to shot consistency.

On the old mags the fill tube (MGG2-83) used to simply pull out of the fill valve (MGG2-84). I personally havnt had my hands on the new(?) mags, but looking at that image it does indeed look like they two parts unscrew from each other. Either way yes you want to remove the fill tube and cut it in half roughly, I go 10mm longer than the needle on the fill valve. This ensures theres plenty of room for gas rather than overly liquid. Its good practice to have a good look inside the mag and check there is no swarf or debris in there, blow it out, lube the seals with silicone oil and reassemble with some weak threadlock to the screws. Partially fill with good oiled gas and rotate the mags so the oil can settle into the seals etc.

Just take your full valves out, pull out the full tubes and cut them in half, then push them back in. There is absolutely nothing unsafe with this mod. And you've still got genuine TM valves.

With the look of the 'feel' of the gun I think it'd better suit an external silencer of a more military look personally Mmmmmmm UBR Actually just barrel with long hand guards look awesome ?

RS Acog ? Nice build!

Such a satisfying and fun gun, with a realistic action which is primarily the reason for playing! And so well made

Personally I don't rate them

Are you wanting to build a military rifle or race gun? I am super keen on the Fortis Rev rail for a lightweight build, plus its right at home for a CQB length rifle. Is that your intended use with the MWS general field and CQB work? I.E. not DMR. The install is easy, there are lots of disassembly videos online To do it nice have a delta ring spanner and a little punch for the 2 front sightpost pins. Make sure to turn the hop adjustment right off before attempting to remove the outer barrel from the upper receiver
