Hi there! Sorry for the delayed reply but I’ve been using the same combination ever since that post and it hasn’t skipped a beat!

Okay all great news, I have done it… the mcx now has crazy good consistency and the bb trajectory is perfect each time. ive done this by putting a unicorn barrel, bucking, omega nub and winter springs in. The stock springs are way too strong and especially for English weather. The stock springs end up pushing the bb with too much force that it gets placed unevenly in the hop rubber leading to inconsistent hop. The winter springs solves this and make the gun overall nicer to manipulate. the winning combination is: 200mm 6.03 unicorn gbb barrel 60 degree unicorn gbb bucking GSI hop arm maple leaf omega nub bow master vfc npas Jwi hop unit winter springs the winter springs are the one from the airsoft chay video and are a following: Length: 300mm Wire Diameter: 0.6mm Outer Diameter: 8mm https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256803437852748.html The people over in the heavy recoil club discord server have been incredibly useful so a massive thank you to them.

Okay dokey everyone, through testing I can say the best combination I’ve tested so far for the spear was a crazy jet 200mm, flamingo 60 and the stock arm. I was using 0.40’s and was getting good ranges. However near the end of the day my hop started to play up. I believe it’s just my barrel getting dirty but I am still going to try a unicorn barrel, 60 bucking and an omega nub.

Okay all a little update. The screws manages to do it again, so I superglued them both in, it is a permanent solution I know but it works well so far. I'm using the bow master NPAS for VFC M4'S and have managed to get the fps variation between shots extremely low so I recommend that NPAS wholeheartedly. As for hop and bucking wise I haven't tested further but it definitely is an issues with the hop rubber, barrel, mock gas block(hop adjuster), nub or hop arm. This is due to the good fps consistently it has to be something with the hop. I have a unicorn 6.03 barrel and unicorn 60 on the way from honk Kong. Lots of other people on the Heavy Recoil Club discord have had luck with this so I will try it then update the thread. I hope the update finds you well cheers

Yeah I’ve been coordinating with the guys and gals there to come up with a solution

Okay did a lot of testing and the hop is very inconsistent. The fps is still extremely consistent but the hop is everywhere, the more I shoot it I see slight improvements, so I am going to try and rinse as many rounds as possible then come up with a verdict.

Yeah I love the gun so much! and with the growing popularity of them I thought I should document what I did as there's Definity things I wish I knew coming into the system for the first time!

Babe wake up new APFG update, Okay yet another post, I've been busy. So the screws work perfectly so far with testing, I've also swapped out my maple leaf Mr hop 50 degree out for a flamingo 60, this was because I found that with the combination of Mr hop and crazy jet barrel the bb was getting seated slightly differently each time causing inconsistent hop affect . So far the flamingo has been much better however I haven't shot many shots through it. Also installed the GSI mcx hop arm with their soft nub, The tolerancing of the hole that the pin for the arm sits in was way too small so I drilled using a 2mm drill bit it out until the pin sat in snugly. The GSI hop arm is better as it has a flatter contact patch, as oppose to the original arm which has a thin rounded metal part which causes inconsistent bb hop especially when the power changes (very bad as GBB are always slowly loosing power). Also another thing to note is the JWI hop unit is a very snug fit in some spear! If there are anymore things I discover I will post them here Until then Enjoy!

Update! I ordered M3 screws that were 8mm thinking they would be long enough but where too long so I cut them down slightly, they sit in a bit more providing more depth. Looking at the original screw the thread is demolished which is odd from factory. The picture left is the old one, the right is the new one. I’m going to replace both then test for a game day see if the thread gets destroyed on the new ones as well

Hi all, recently ran into some problems with my APFG Spear so I thought id let everyone know so it doesn't unfortunately happen to you lot! It's been running perfectly and still is however there are two screws holding in the hammer connecting level and one has stripped out of its thread. This has happened on both mine and my mates spear so it looks like a manufacturing issues as the screws look way to short to get a proper grip. Factory both mine and his came Loctited but eventually stripped. I would recommend either using glue or some other method of ensuring the screw stays in as it looks like this will happen on MOST spears. At the minute I'm unsure if this happens on the rattlers but looks likely. Currently I am trying different screw lengths to see which will work the best and I may need to drill and tap the hole to a bigger thread if none of the original thread is usable/left. Below is a picture of the screw that has come out, a good way to tell if this has happened to your is that the upper and lower may be difficult to join together again. I will update if I find a solution, I have created this as a topic so if anyone else has issues and remedies they can attach it here, remember we all can help each other out!

Nice i sold all my mags and just wanted an exhaust valve for a hpa adapter. I will probably order from KJW works as a backup. Just in case.....

I just thought I'd share my findings, I was struggling looking for a new magazine valve and after recent experience didn't want to order from a different country. So in a desperate attempt I tried a maple leaf monster valve and it works flawlessly so far. I need to test some more but does anyone have previous experience with this type of valve in a KC02 Mag??

I know this shop really well an there always great! https://www.socomtactical.net/tokyo-marui-hi-capa-5-1-black-gbb-pistol/

I have a mate who recently bought one, he's not had the best luck with it and has gone through 3 or more. Once he got it working it was a dream. but they recently changed the design and it didn't feed at all. I'm pretty sure Airtac are good at getting him replacements. But then again I believe they are the only ones who make it soooo....

Honestly if your looking for something more for aesthetics than user experience I would recommend as well AliExpress or similar places. I know another good brand is GHT I've bought a few of their optics and cant fault them. Their eotech is about £50.
