I'm assuming you fired it with a battery that has little to no charge. In that case, get something to release the anti-reversal latch.

I've got a few bits that might help: First off, the best thing to do is to upgrade your power source (the magazines) here's a few bits: Magazine shims, these'll help with gas efficiency. http://www.leesprecision.com/products/laser-cut-mag-shim-pack-of-4-tokyo-marui-pistols A better quality gas route seal will also help with efficiency, and is easy to install. http://eagle6.co.uk/shop/catalog/product/view/id/573/s/laylax-nineball-magazine-gas-route-seal-aero-packing-2-pcs-for-hi-capa-p226-series/ This tool is essential when replacing o-rings on the gas inlets/outlets incase the magazine happens to leak after a while. http://www.milspecsolutions.co.uk/we-gas-magazine-valve-key-tool.html And we do love o-rings. These are probably better quality than the WE o-rings. http://www.milspecsolutions.co.uk/gas-blowback-parts/Tokyo-Marui-Magazine-Parts.html/Lees-Precision-Tokyo-Marui-Pistol-Magazine-Repair-Kit.html Now, parts for the pistol: The WE bucking is ok, but there are better one's out there, like this one. http://eagle6.co.uk/shop/catalog/product/view/id/570/s/laylax-nineball-wide-use-air-seal-chamber-packing-for-vsr-l96-gbb-series/ Replace the barrel with a tightbore, you'll get a bit of a fps boost and some slightly better range / accuracy, remember to clean it before you put it in your gun. http://eagle6.co.uk/shop/catalog/product/view/id/1479/s/laylax-nineball-6-00mm-power-barrel-97mm-for-g17-g18c-p226-gbb-series/ A stronger recoil and hammer spring will make the gun a lot snappier, if you're not sure about taking your gun apart then avoid this. http://www.zerooneairsoft.com/product_info.php?products_id=3660 Hope that helps.

Here we go again: Ordered a AirsoftPro reinforced piston for my SVD, the swap-able piston head is a nice feature.

Steel sear arrived, as I expected, it's just a heavy lump of steel. More stuff to come.

Got a response, said they'll have a look into it tomorrow.

Good choice. Did it come with a motor?

Anyone know how long postage takes? Ordered a silencer adapter for my SVD last week but nothing's turned up.

Ordered a scope on Saturday and it's arrived today, they even included a rubber eye piece worth £8 for free! Free postage too again. Excellent service once again.

They'll fit.

Yeah. Or a holo sight, maybe,

Been a while since I posted on here, here's my current primary, ICS L86. Still trying to find a sight that won't look weird on it.

PPS steel trigger sear for my SVD for £12 instead of £20 for a AirsoftPro sear.

Trigger contacts may be worn.

Alrighty, you should source a boneyard VSR and use the parts from that, because purchasing the parts seperatly will end up costing you more than the rifle you intend to convert to a springer.

Ah, uhh.. Hmm... I assume that this is a clone of the Marui, so I wonder if you could drop in a new spring bolt.

Some details/pictures of the sniper would help.

Thought they used M4 type hop up units?

Solutions: Get yourself some magazine shims. They create a better seal between the piston and the gas outlet valve. ( http://www.leesprecision.com/products/laser-cut-mag-shim-pack-of-4-ksc-kwa-glock-series ) Purchase a new piston/nozzle, the old one might be worn out. Give it a thorough clean and re-grease. ASG Glocks are OEMd by KWA/KSC, so Marui parts won't fit/work.

Don't think so, if in doubt, ask them to write your UKARA number on the box. http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/24576-ehobby-asia-vs-aegcart-asia/?hl=%2Behobby+%2Basia http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/21646-mags-from-ehobbyasia/?hl=%2Behobby+%2Basia#entry151654 http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/20785-best-retailer-to-buy-from-vote/?hl=%2Behobby+%2Basia#entry144013

Yes

Save some money and do it yourself, it's not that hard

Silencer adapter for my SVD.

Fixed

Is that true? Don't want to shell out almost £50 on the madbull really.

Looooots of useful guides, like what Mack linked. You'll be spending a lot of money, just warning you now.
