Yep. I've been getting messages from things I've posted in 2018. Sales posts need a "posted date".

Hot doggo doo doo. Will never use that platform again.

This sounds like "I want an ssg10 but I don't want to openly admit to it".

If you one M4, you kinda have them all... But, it just depends what each one means to you.

I had that exact one, was pretty solid out of the box. The only caveat is the trigger pull is heavier than normal because the trigger spring is quite tough.

You can email KJW directly and they can give you a quote to send directly from their factory. However, I've been trying to get parts for my cz75 and the last time I emailed kjw, they were not shipping to the UK, so you might be just out of luck unless you buy a new one unfortunately.

I'd still recommend the m4 just because there are waaaaay more parts for an m4 than there are for mp5. V3 parts seem to be more scarce these days.

Any metal gearbox m4 tbh. Most are under 100, with Cyma probs the cheapest at 80 ish

Apparently it based on the airsoft masterpiece, and has steel internals and full frame like the advanced frame. Better be worth it. I'm watching it too. They seem to have also made a second prs korth-like gun with the same internals. The ble vulture it was called.

Highly doubt it is vsr compatible. The travel on that pull looks extremely short, even shorter than the striker I think. Looks nice but probably only good for reenactments sadly.

If you check the cylinder, there is a tear drop shaped hole which limits the power to about 1.3J in my case when I had the as03. If you patch that up with some tape, you should get a great increase in power. Although, 0.13J before even patching the hole up is a bit concerning. Mine was around 1J.

I've had them in for months and have not had a problem. Does depend on the brand though. Kjw mags are quite reliable and havent had the seals fails me after all these years. Kwc though... A few have failed a few days in.

25 to 30 rps I feel is the limit without being an arse. As soon as you stop hearing the individual shots and becomes a constant noise (around 35-40), that's when it begins to get arseholey.

For co2 in winter, depends on gun and if it slide is light (like kjw cz75). But for most co2 pistos (1911s tbh) you can at the very least get half a mag off with good power (tested in -2c weather before). Green gas no bueno unless it's a tm. For me, getting a few shots off in winter is worth the trade offs compared to adolf saying he's rather have GG and not use it at all.

It's incredible how people have used this exact video in presentations and now the "whirl valve" has assimilated into common knowledge when it is just a gimmick from G&G, the guys that have been historically known to make dog poo poo pistols.

hammer time

It's defo a bit whiny but tbh no one will really care and I would personally keep it like that (partially because it's a nuprol). In all my years airsoft, the only gearbox that has failed me outright was a nuprol m4 gearbox. The teeth on the gears just exploded. And, other gearboxes did not fit into the gun without modification due to some metal tabs getting in the way. I remember they also have microswitches which also makes it non standard. By far the worst m4 I ever had.

I have the raider 2.0 and it is really light at just under 2kg without a mag. The firehawk should be good too if you want shorter. I personally can't advocate for augs since I hate the balance of bullpups (I prefer pulling the weight up from the front). Ares and Specna are OK, but G&G have by far the best reputation of them all for low cost and good performance.

Try northwestcerakote. Smaller scale one man band (i think) and I got my cz75 done there and it was pretty good and fast.

Of all the co2 pistols I have owned, I have not really seen a difference between co2 and green gas in terms of materials used and "reinforcements". This only applies for metal pistols. With the CZ series, the co2 will wear away the mag catch, especially the for cz75 and shadow 1. For the shadow 2, I only briefly had it but it others have said the mag catch improved on that version. But ye the cz series will hold up to co2 easily. So no need to worry about it. The ones you should worry about are pistols like glock 17/18/19 etc because the metal is thin where the recoil rod goes through on the slide. That is the only pistol slide that has ever broke on me from using co2. The glock 34 slide with the thicker front fairs a lot better. So all in all, if there's a co2 option for the pistol, it should be fine. Just watch out for thin metal parts like glock 17 slides as pot metal won't hold up to that abuse for long.

Well, the mag catch will wear off with co2. The metal is still rather soft. Still better than we though. It's still my best performing pistol to date (i've had countless) function wise with gas and snappiness. Accuracy and range wise it's only ok because the stock barrel and hop and not really interchangeable (the tnt one kinda works, but not really any better).

With all the maple leaf stuff and a nice barrel, and at around 1-1.1 joules with 0.25s or higher, 60m should be easy. It's what I regularly try to get with all the aegs I have had. Anything less is not enough for me unless the power output is not quite there. People forget that 50m really isn't that far.
