There should be no difference between v1 and V2 gas blocks

No worries. Interestingly it's actually a VFC stock for the AEG mk48 and I found it compatible with the buffer plate and switched them over. But thanks, I like it too

That is correct

It's exactly the same valve as every other VFC (except mp5) . I got mine from gbbparts.com Also it turns out the real B&T rail fits although it does mean you have to remove it to remove the gas tube as part of a detailed strip

I'll be fitting the CL project design adjustable valve to mine just to ensure it's always under

it slides on but the LCT pin locations are incorrect

We have been building our own for the last year or so . It's not actually a hard build to get close but a perfect replica is currently impossible. I used a VFC SR16E3 GBB with the correct rail from Airsoft artisan , a custom supressor and the correct furniture from magpul The correct rail and supressor are both made already but the VFC and G&G options are better base rifles tbh . The SF version uses a ctr stock which is easier to get a replica of or even a real one if you wish

UKSF had the KS1 well over a year ago before the Ranger trials were even complete

badgertac doesn't even exist now

UKSF have moved on too

It's nothing to do with shops though

It actually feels less toyish than TM to be honest. I was actually tempted to buy one despite not liking the MWS platform

Here are some snaps I got

The Cyma/T8 is one version. T8 parts in the Cyma base gun and then licensed by EMG The DE is cheaper than the cyma and in my opinion it's the one to buy as it's out of the box more compatible with other mws parts . While the DE costs about the same as a base line MWS it is about a third of the price of a TM MWS and Noveski reciever kit. I'm not a big fan of the MWS platform but I am tempted to getting the DE after trying all of the options head to head for a few days

I don't think it's really designed for open day sites where they have to cater for the lowest common denominator. More for special events where blanks, pyro and ear defenders are standard . I think the immersion provided by these units would be ruined by the Spandex and hose pipes at most open days these days anyway. I do forget that to many airsofters there is only open day airsoft as they enjoy those and wander no further

I don't think it ever happened

I'm pretty surprised

It's WELL, it will be cheap and probably nasty

8 years which is a reasonable time but not as long as others

Been replaced , It's a knights armament KS1

Worth noting that for some reason odd reason Rossi decided to make it too long for the cqb and too short for the carbine . The issue is it.s not just the barrel length , it's the rail length that wrong too. It is funny seeing all the L119A2 options arriving on the market just as it leaves service though

Good effort but those are aegs mate

I do recommend checking out their youtube videos from 7 years ago as it will answer most questions . It goes on your existing airsoft gun and the volume can be adjusted from lower ,more ear safe levels to full immersive levels the same as firing blanks

The license period to the military must have expired Edit - i have literally just been told at work that this is the case and they are definitely coming back to airsoft in the near future
