    I am using Abbey 144a predator summer gas if that matter much?

     

    Thanks.

    What FPS does that come out at? I only use propane so I’m not sure what 144a gives

    I got a load of V2 mags and cut the tube down anyway. Ran 5 mags Sunday, gassed them the night before and I gassed them at dinner.  Filled all of them up with bb’s repeatedly and it showed no sign of even slowing down. Until it stops working, I’ll always just the tubes short

    60m kills is pretty incredible for 330'ish fps... Which gas were you using? At 330fps it's certainly not green gas right? I've not scientifically measured mine yet but will have a go the next time I play... 

    propane, so essentially green gas. With gas guns FPS is less important. It might be 330fps on a .20 bb, which is about 1 joule. But with a .32-.36 it could be 1.3 joules for example. Because an AEG has a fixed volume of air it tends to either keep the same energy or loose it with heavier BB’s (depending on barrel:cylinder volume ratio) unless it’s specifically built to joule creep. 
     

    A gbbr is different. The heavier the BB is, the longer it’s in the barrel for, which generally means the more of the energy the gas can impart on it. It’s another reason putting a longer barrel in a gas gun can make the fps go up considerably. Longer the barrel, the longer the BB is inside of it, the more energy it absorbs. Which can be advantageous or cause cycling issues if you go too long.

    Just watches this and it makes me have some questions doubts about my own haha.

    So as you probably know I am an angry gun outer barrel and had some hop issues fitting it. But now thats fine, been sorted and it will over hop .28 with the sixG nub. But I feel my range is more 30-40m than anywhere close to 50-60m.

     

    Now whenever you add other parts obviously there is this risk. Now my actual question is this. if I want it to, It will over hop the .28s so in theory the hop is now working perfectly. Could there be another factor in the outer barrel change that is effecting my range?

     

    Disclaimer. I have only tried .2s, which had awful range on a windy day

    .28s which performed a lot better but every other shot would over hop when the others were fine, meh.

     

     

    If it’s only over hopping every other shot Id say you had an issue somewhere. Range and accuracy can be gained by running a heavier BB. I’ve found .30-.32 to be ideal for a standard power mws. Standard barrel in terms of accuracy is good. I only change the barrels now if it suits a power goal for a DMR build or a general length issue. 
     

    like @ReformedNiceGuy said, I’ve had many kills from across the carpark at anzio. In fact I had a test video somewhere that I measured with a range finder to be 60m from the bale of shit at the edge of the carpark (medblock side) to the bales against armoury/Garage. That was with .32 Geoff’s and 330ish FPS 
     

    NOTE: the barrels come from the factory covered in this brown shit though. I always give the inner barrel a clean, even on a brand new gun. You’ll be surprised how dirty they are new. 

    Tm Mp5 NGRS on Horizon?

    in Latest News

    Posted

    As much as I’m only interested in GBBR’s I’d rather this was an NGRS. While it’ll shoot amazing, TM’s plastics are shit compared to VFC or WE nylon fibre. Just watched the TM video where he says the new AKM gbbr is die cast zinc, and those subcompact NBB things have fixed hop and about 5m range... they need to get their shit together

    Don't suppose anyone has a 'spare' TM original buffer tube and un-chewed castle nut that they would be willing to sell please as mine has been badly scored by my hao bolt.

    Cheers

    I might have a couple in a box somewhere. I’ll check in a bit

    Unless storage is a real issue or you need to get in tight vehicles, it’s pretty pointless. You can’t shoot with it folded so the only time it will be is when you don’t have hold of it. 

    Vfc, TM or Kwa GBB Mp7?

    The Marui is clearly the better shooter, but the WE is pretty decent.

    It needs a bit of TLC at first. but once I got mine sorted and put a couple of thousand rounds through it to wear it in it has been totally reliable ever since. With 5 mags it is totally skirmishable for shorter games without having to carry a speed loader although I do want a couple more.

    What TLC does it need?

    Every VFC I’ve ever owned, fired, or repaired has looked beautiful but been a piece of shit inside. The only reason they’re huge in the US is because of the trademark deals they do.

     

    I have no experience of their MP7, but nothing else of theirs is a patch on TM, and only as good as WE on a good day when all the tolerances line up. Even then, material quality control is poor, so they wear faster than both WE and TM.

     

    OP stated he wanted 1:1, which means the excellent TM is out, so WE it is.

    Can’t argue with the logic there. Only questioned it because I bought a WE mp7 years ago second hand and it was hopeless. Couldn’t get it to shoot right. Sold it and got a TM which was brilliant. 
     

    new VFC stuff (gbbr) isn’t too bad these days. There not a TM, but they’re okay

    please, please, please say it's good

    In terms of build it’s really nice. Kick is decent considering the weight of the thing. It looks to have the same long contact patch bucking as the VFC M40A5 inside. With regards to performance, I’ll do a review of it once I sort out the scope situation. Then it’ll be upgraded

    @RMDavis my mags do that very rarely. In the field I usually just find a thin but sturdy stick and push down on the second BB to free it because I’m an animal (or an Allen key if I’m feeling posh) 

     

    cleaning it out with isopropyl and a cotton bud when I get home usually fixes it for months
