sp00n

had it apart again air seal is almost perfect removed sector delay chip ..... and now i am getting 267fps ... which is nice (this works out to 300fps on 0.2's) which is what i was getting before. i also performed some test swapping to the shorter barrel i gained approximatly 10 to 20 FPS the bad news in full auto, removing the sector delay chip has made it miss feeds a lot ... but my local site is semi only so not too much of a issue atm. so the big question do i get a sp110 spring and go for a 330fps gun ..... atm .... NO

Joy and sorrow in one foul swoop so i finally received the ASG ultimate silver coated wire, and promptly re wired my gun . i was having a bit of trouble reassembling my gun (the norm i am learning for V2 gearboxes!), and i had been given the normal raider out barrel and inner barrel , so i promptly swapped them over to boot. wiring finished, all back together ... to to do a FPS and bb per sec test .... the good news is it spitting out a nice 27 to 28 bb per second ... the bad news is my compression has ran away! i am only getting 169 to 200 fps ...... WTF going down the list of things that i have done which may have had a negative impact on the air seal, other then replace the piston o-ring, i did fit a sector delay chip ...... getting fed up with whipping the gear box out lol edit :- forgot to mention, even when i went back to my original barrel/hop assembly, the FPS was not much better around 10 to 20 fps. i did the paper test. (Flip the gun upside down. Put a small piece of paper or tissue on the magwell hole. Dry fire the gun. If the paper blows up at your face, your leak is most likely between the nozzle/hop up assembly) .. paper didn't move time to swap back the piston 0-ring

Which specific model side arm? As others have said you may/will need an adapter gun depending etc

Update time so i have found a nice torch off ebay, its not mega bright (bright enough), it takes 2 cr123's (i have rechargables so thats cool), it has a laser and its quick disconnect ..... but no strobe gunna keep my eyes open for another torch with strobe ... just in case as to the gun, i am more impressed each time i use it. The range i can hit people at just blows me away! so much that I now have 5 mags for it, and i happily run just this for a game or 3 (i could easily run this for a full day, but i have other guns and they need some loving too ). one "bad" thing i noticed, after a while the trigger started to get abit "sticky", a quick squirt of silicone oil down the mag well soon sorted that out though on a side note i have been made aware that taiwangun sell these guns and mags even cheaper under there STTI brand, but i cannot confirm this (as i have not ordered one etc ... well not yet anyway ... hmmm dual wielding mk23's)

you would not believe how easy and hard is is to answer this lol firstly lets make the assumption that you pistons cylinder is correctly ported for every length you use generally as a rule of thumb longer barrels will increase you FPS (upto around the 500mm long mark on a v2 AEG) but not by massive amounts a shorter barrel will reduce your fps ... but not by much a tighter bore barrel will increase you fps, but not by as much as longer barrel a wider bore *may* reduce your FPS, but not by a lot the other thing to bear in mind this isnt an exact science, some people may get a + or - 50fps with the longer barrel, some may see a far less or no difference at all. similarly a tight bore can give 30fps extra or none at all i hope this helps some. (on a side note i dislike tight bores totally, as my 1 encounter, well it had me buying a stock barrel!)

forgot about these :- amazon 10 boxes (500 snaps) for £1.90 delivered!!

I have 2 co2 mags for my we 5.1 hi-capa, never once has it shot above 330-340fps. I was told that it has a lower flow valve than a gg mag, hence the stable fps.

i only went into my local shop for a £25 hoodie ..... ended up with ... how the hell did that happen

welcome

according to this sr25 guide http://www.airsoftforum.com/board/topic/245076-sr-25-guide/ the A&K is a G&P clone, so G&P SR25 mags would be good

Short answer yes and no Long answer yes you can, but typically tm (plastic slide) pistols don't like green gas as its abit powerful for them, usually it's the mags that suffer the most though as there not designed for its increased pressure. That said during cold months green gas is fine.

Is it a crane stock? If so you could just replace it. Have a look on a retailers website such as zero one as they may have the part you need on stock.

G&g do a 120rd sr25 mag (they are polymer, but really good, I have 2) Which sr25 do you have? The reason I ask is my g&g sr25 is very particular about mags only ones that I have found that fit and feed are G&G lol

That's not bad in my mind, is that "all in"??

could be a burned out trigger if the motor doesn't spin as per SD's suggestion ... try a spare motor if you have one

i take it the motor is turning?(making a sound), just no firing?? could be the motor has wound its self away from the bevel, or stripped its pinion gear take the top off then fire the gun, if the nozzle moves back and forth when fired, it likley to be a stripped piston. if none of the above, then as you say, it sound like a stripped gear.

A very minor increase, top tech's come with a 6.03 barrel as standard

One thing to consider with this being a new gun is changing the spring may invalidate the guns warranty if you want to keep the warranty (being new, and/or for peace of mind), best bet would be to ask the place you bought it from, see if they was to do the spring swap would the warranty still be valid? worst they could say would be "no that would invalidate the warranty" etc

i use this on my AK >>> http://www.stevesoutdoorwarehouse.co.uk/holographic-hs-556-red--green-dot-sight-black--free-uk-postage-45-p.asp (out of stock atm, but it gives you an idea on price etc) its not a bad optic at all, and if you get rechargeable CR123A's its cheap to run too

easiest thing would be to swap to 0.25's defending the cheap G&G's, they do have amazing hops, there green rubber is pretty epic if i am honest

only when i already have the pistols they stock ..... still waiting for my local to get a webby in!!!!

could be a knackered hop rubber ... with out see'ing it hard to diagnose tbh

Dosnt look too bad from the pic Just had a thought, Is the barrel clean?

Is the barrel straight? Any chance of a pic of the nozzle?

Don't loose the copper ring, it keeps the barrel central in the hop. Look down the hop into the barrel, the hop nub should be central, if it's not gentility rotate the barrel slightly
