  1. More marketing BS from G&G. It needs a stock tube LiPo, not exactly difficult to get hold of, a smart charger such as a Imax B6 or a Turnigy Accucell 6 is needed however. The cheap power brick ones are no good.

     

    No G&G gun as far as I am aware comes with a battery or charger. And I've had a lot of them in the past 5 years.

     

    Those midcap mags are what i've bought to go along with it, so I shall be able to give a fair assessment of those as well.

  2. I ordered one on Monday, waiting for the damn thing to be shipped. I'll be reviewing it as soon as it does arrive however, as there are reports of this supposedly being one of the new G&G high cycles (please god, be true :ph34r: )

     

    Oh and FPS isn't everything, the G&G hop unit is good enough that the difference in range between 328 and 350fps is pointlessly minimal.

  3. ^^You know what I'm developing as a policy toward CYMA internals, GK? Leave 'em alone. They're meant to be loose and noisy and coated in earwax - they work best that way. You put a TBB in there, you'll need a spring downgrade. The next thing, you'll be wiping all that earwax out and doing a nice shim job. Then you're going to check the compression and find it's sh*t. So you'll want a new O-ring, maybe a piston head. A new piston head on that nasty looking off-white plastic piston...? So that's a nice new SHS blue one. And that crappy no-O-ring air nozzle...? No way, man! What you want in there is a nice shiny ali one... going into the stock, who-knows-what-degree hop rubber...? Nah... gotta be a G&G Green at least, maybe a Prommy Purple for a marksman rifle... maybe get a new CNC hop unit to go with...

     

    And by then, if it's working as well as it did when it was stock, the noodly-appendaged god of airsoft is smiling on you...

     

    Edit: OOps, i almost forgot! Thanks for the info on the sling point. Have you got a linky?

     

    It already has a 6.04 as standard, but I want an Orga Magnus 6.13 or 6.23, and everything else will be replaced with lonex v7 parts bar the gearset. Sorbo'd, AOE sorted, Airlab Mosfet. When I bought it, it was on the understanding that i would be keeping only the gearbox shell and the externals in the long run.

     

    Replacing the hop rubber is a given, and will undoubtedly be a prommy purple. Aiming for ~400fps semi locked.

  4. Where did you get that sling point strap on your M14, GK?

     

    Got it originally to go with the recoil 416 (no one had any freedom art sling points in stock), it comes from a 5.11 Static Single Point sling kit, and it is by far one of the best made I've used.

     

    Once i'd dialed the hop in, the rifle was insane, only guns outranging me on the field were a fully Laylaxed VSR and L96, still going to upgrade the internals anyway :)

    CYMA M14 MOD 1 EBR. Bought this nearly a month ago now, been throwing stuff at it for the external look and have now got it to a point where I am happy with it. Internally, I'm not touching it, because it was surprisingly accurate at range when I was testing it before purchase. Getting skirmished for the first time tomorrow, then 2 weeks time it's coming to Northern Star with me :)

  6. Do you have a gun which can take a KV1S on and win? :D

    I take out KV1S's out regularly in the crusader, big gun, crap armour on the russian (compared to other t6 heavies).

  7. Someone likes their A-Tacs!

     

    Yeah, I've been admiring it for a fair while after seeing it being used effectively in a few games.

     

    A-Tacs is very effective on the field,it may look a bit silly on camera indoors,but it's effective and nice outside.

     

    Especially in the sites I frequent, can make you virtually invisible at 20 metres in reasonably dense forest.

    Picked these Magnum Sidewinder HPi Multicam boots in Blacks for £50 marked down from £190, and they are the best fitting boots i've ever tried on (stupidly narrow feet, in big sizes make boots difficult to find, so i try on alot).
