  1. Ares Vz.58 compact with custom battery/dust cover/top rail
  2. Fantastic day with the Vz.58 really impressed with the gun .... Seems I was wrong, the gearboxes are not made with pressed dairy lee triangles lol

      Did you find it difficult to fit the battery in it. I'm looking to get one of these but the battery compartment is putting me off

      I cheated and 3D printed my own battery housing :)

  3. Hard to give a definitive answer, but Possibly.... It all depends on the material, and construction etc
  4. Printrite diy off hobbyking.... With a few mods (heated bed and stabilised z axis)
  5. Yeah 3D printers are not cheap, but they are getting cheaper all the time. And it is cheaper to print your self versus say shapeways ( though I do use shapeways for complex items as they have wayy better 3D printers) I use an online one called tinker cad, it can be a right pain, but it's dead easy to use lol
  6. I print them myself Actually considering upgrading my printer as I have to print the above in 3 parts (the rail is more a strengthening/bracing)
  7. That depends on your face, myself I prefer high mounts. But it all depends on your preference lol
  8. the nikko is the best in my view, you will need to replace the mount though. its a 20mm picatinny mount rail, or 20mm ris. be aware some mounts don't fit, but rings do fit
  9. thats a 50' on my VSR G-spec (not a g-spec silencer though ), with a sun shade
  10. depends on £££ if lots of £££ Hawke then niko stirling then what ever also consider 50mm lenses (say 3-9x50), you get abit more of the area magnified etc
  11. New Mod2 Vz58 battery cover with rail and loads of battery space
  12. Unfortunately English isn't mancrafts native language, but I must say they do an amazing job, and I highly recommend them
  13. just finished printing the version 2 VZ58 battery cover working on version 3, will prototype it then get shapeways to 3d print it ... maybe in aluminium Edit :- holy cr@p how much???? Shapeways in aluminium £470 WTF!!!!! It's £60 in there normal "strong & flexible plastic" Wow just wow Edit 2 :- Added bracing lip
  14. still a work in progress, but i am printing this atm Its to allow me to use a 11.1v in my Vz58 compact
  15. If you have a SVD you could get a nsp-3 night vision scope ;-)
  16. on my tippmann since i have had it, something like 9 months, i was initially worried as it heard they shake most optics to bits lol but its been great on my scar 4 to 6 months but i don't run it as much as my tippmann
  17. I use a China clone 556 on my tippmann and on my scar, no problems at all
  18. i have a PDI 6.05 430mm barrel in my g-spec, but i am using a spartan light weight 335mm silencer, with a LRB mod. you can fit a 430mm barrel in a g-spec, but the silencer then just becomes decoration/barrel extension then.
  19. 2 more G&P 7.4V 1200mAh 30C Lipo Battery (AK Type) - GP-BAT007A to replace the one i broke
  20. It's the I have the TM vsr g-spec I have. I prefare the vsr to be honest, as there is wayy more upgrade parts available, it's lighter, mags are cheaper and it's cheaper to buy new. But then again my vsr is mancrafted (it's HPA, not Spring powered) so it has a rediculusly light bolt pull, mancraft do not do a kit for the TM l96 aws
  21. It was a comparison to my vsr, which has the AA hop unit, and is set mid way atm. that's with 0.43's, i want to switch to 0.45's soon, so more would be better but in the OP's case its irrelevant for him
  22. there is 2 problems with my TM L96 AWS first there is no upgrade for the hop unit at all, so now fully upgraded i only have 2 clicks left in hop adjustment second there is no mancraft kit for it in my view, like proffrink above me, i would advise going with the well MB01 series, its a lot cheaper, and it has lots and lots of upgrades please not the well MB44xx series is TM L96 AWS clones be sure to check out http://www.airsoftsniperparts.com/identifyyourrifle.htm to check gun/part compatibility etc
  23. On a new gun, if your going to be using HPA you have to convert it (very easy), setup the fps (very easy), and the ROF (which can be challenging, if your going for the sweet spot) Then you need the 3D printed nub, as stock it's not that good ... Also the stock barrel isn't that good I know that all sounds bad, but trust me, it's more then worth it, and once set your gold
  24. Like Hef said, once setup, it's brilliant
  25. At one point ares gears where made of pressed dairy lee triangles The newer ones are ok, or so I hope, I have recently got a vz58
