ICS M4 - metal receiver I know very little about this one. Purchased a while back second hand as a backup. Fires. Last time used seemed OK. Would come with the PEQ box, no mags / batteries. Any idea what it is worth?

Just out of interest, have you ever tried to blast a used pair on full auto from point blank range on the same spot? Curious to know how many shots they might take before showing signs of cracking.

Do you replace yours every time you get shot? 😆

Pretty sure these ones are @heroshark Few bits of paint missing. Not sure if it’s a tiny bit of surface rust, or the colour of the metal. How much are these worth these days? thanks!

Something I keep meaning to sell! Hand painted MARPAT design. I believe one of a kind! You’ll need to get some elastic (easily picked up from Amazon etc. What is it worth please?

Is it not just a standard V2 selector plate on a G&P gearbox? I just ordered a SHS one earlier, looked the same to me (albeit the ASCU requires a slight modification to not manually engage the cut off lever). Also ordered a new trigger spring as that seems to have broken on me with all the semi-spamming. A bit of luck it happened whilst I needed to take it apart again anyway rather than during the next game! I'm not sure if the selector plate is necessarily moving normally more than a minimal amount, and of course the selector cam would normally keep it in place when the gearbox is in the lower receiver. I'm hoping its more a combination of the ASCU prongs being pushed back, some wear on the selector plate copper contact, and the selector plate itself getting slightly out of shape.

Played around with this some more, and might have found the issue. Took the spring, piston, cylinder etc out and connected the grip back to the gearbox without the lower receiver. When firing rapidly on semi the selector plate moves forward just a touch and no longer connects with the ASCU contacts! Not sure if the selector has worn out a bit over the years (that and the gearbox case are probably about the only original parts), or the ASCU prongs have just lost their spring. I've bent the prongs out a little, but might replace the selector... any recommendations for one that plays nice with a G&P gearbox?

It is a bit of a classic design I know... but then again I used to play back when a 9.6v nimh in a battery sling was a good set up! 😃 The set up has worked for years without a semi lock up issue, and for the few times I played in 2023/2024. Therefore its not a fundamentally 'bad' design, something must have changed or broken recently. I do like the look of the Perun Hybrid (with clicker), but I don't want to spent £90+ to find out that isn't the issue. I've emailed ASCU for the technical spec on the MOSFET, and to see if I can work out how to get to the settings.

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum, and have just started occasionally airsofting again. Its been a long while since I played regularly, back in around 2010 I was quite obsessed playing most weekends for a good few years, and was a regular on the ZeroIn forums which now seem to be gone! I know my way around an AEG, and my current set up is pretty custom based on a G&P VLTOR. It was a very good set-up back in the day, but it seems things have caught up a bit since then. I've got a new issue, which about coincides with installing a new spring/piston. I'm getting lock up on Semi, which can be solved by flicking to auto. Sometimes it needs a few shots too. I think it was a Guarder M100, but I'm trying find the order receipt. I'm getting around 285fps on .25s (so about 320fps on .20s), air seal is good, but I lose a little fps due to the sorbo pad / air brake piston head. Other relevant parts are... - ASCU MOSFET (very early model, probably their original one! Takes up half the stock tube. Microswitch for the trigger) - 7.4 2200mah 35C Giant Power LiPo - SHS High Torque Motor - SHS 13:1 gear set - Anti reversal latch removed I'm not convinced the spring is the issue given it is not particularly strong, and it gives about the same FPS as the one I took out (which was an unknown make/strength). Any help on what to try next is appreciated. I'm not really playing enough to justify spending loads going around changing every part hoping something works!
