  1. Had to go look what it was - Anyone actually believe the shit PTS spout? "Self Lubricating Resin Shell" - Do fuck right off, PTS.
  2. Recommended on HRC is to make them 230mm long, to stop misfeeds - which is typically caused by bolt bounce.
  3. Did you shorten said winter springs to 230mm?
  4. Airtac adapters need to use AEG mags with a significantly higher spring strength, cheap AEG mags are almost always not up to snuff. PTSEPM1/1S definitely work (what the adapters are designed around), older EPM's (Gen1) do not. Mags i've tested that do not work, anything made by KWA, Specna, Ares, Classic Army. Some CYMA's can work, but only more modern ones, G&G are hit and miss - if they have the follower that goes outside of the mag lip, forget it, G&P Troy mags will work, but you'll have to part fill. PSI wise, it'll depend solely on if the adapter in question has a built in expansion chamber, if it does you will be able to run it on 80-100PSI. If it feeds the line through the adapter direct to the output valve, it won't run on anything less than 120-130PSI, and probably more realistically 140-145psi (and if you've got heavy bolt, or other heavy recoil mods, higher PSI to overcome mass). Edit: Looked at them. Neither variant of airtac for VFC M4 has an expansion chamber, so its higher PSI almost certainly.
  5. Nah. RATech shit just causes more problems than it solves. Not upgrades, just overtly expensive side grades. I have had stock WE trigger boxes last in excess of 100k bb's, but it requires proper regular maintenance.
  6. There was a time where you could have eeeked out £50-60 a piece from the right buyer, however, things have move on (EPM's are empiricallly better unfortunately) - you could probably sell them these days for £15-20 a piece now, but it'll be dependent on someone really, really wanting them.
  7. Had forgotten how much of a pain in the arse moving house is - at least i don't have to rush this time.

  8. Also vinted flat out banned anything even remotely military related at the beginning of last year - People posting camo Vans keep having adverts pulled.
  9. Basically nowhere. You will likely find its restricted in someway or another by the russia sanctions. - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2019/855/contents
  10. Would place heavy bets on old prisons being chockful of currently unexposed Asbestos - which makes them completely unviable for redevelopment, as removal/containment is astronomically expensive/time consuming.
  11. Literally a section for it https://airsoft-forums.uk/forum/51-skirmish-sites-stories-reviews/
  12. It's not even retail - worst case scenario that's about £450 new. The crap 'included' aside from the mags are worthless.
  13. The precision nub isn't compatible with the DE without signicantly modifying the arm. I just swapped back to an omega nub, which works perfectly.
  14. Sigh. Hi Capa mags, literally the only ones I don't have.
  15. Oh god. It's him. I'm surprised its even working.
  16. You've missed that he appears to be trying to sell it 4 times as well.
  17. Bought the WADSN Unity FTC 30mm a few months ago, finally arrived and in standard chinesium it wasn't actually a 30mm ID (calipers read 28.82mm 🙄) so had to take a file to the inside to open it up to accept the magnifier I have. It works now just about 😅
  18. Quite a lot of the time you play the lottery, as very few retailers are that honest about which version they're selling. HRC discord will have photos, there are VFC fanboys galore on there.
  19. It's common VFC bullshit. They make a version for asia with decent components, then alternative markets get costcutting versions - zamak is the Zinc alloy they cheap out on with.
  20. From point of release in Japan to us getting them in the UK is usually 3 - 6 months. In that time period, no more new G17.5 batches have made in the scope of that timetable. Gen 5 MOS were released in Japan December 2023, first ones arriving in the UK were February 2024 - so they were the December 2023 batch of production. The only glocks shipped by TM for 2024 were the G19.4's in April. Prior to that, the last G17's (gen 3) prior to that were in May 2023, the last G17.4 reference was back in April 2023. These gen 4's are probably from that or older batches. There is no mythical new batch, its just old stock.
  21. Guess someone didn't read Ebay rules about RIF's, as its gone now.
  22. CYMA CGS isn't an MWS. The only things which are potentially compatible are the mags. Everything else is T8's spec.
  23. I'm sorry, you are? I only discovered I got replied to because I was bored and went looking as to why this had been bumped.
  24. You're going to be shit out of luck basically, it's a proprietary receiver extension. GBBR spec stock is different from AEG spec, and a RS one uses a different spec as well - not that the RS one would work with the N4, as it has different threads.
