  1. hammer time
  2. 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.
  3. Hm i'm having a weird problem where I cannot access the forum through the browser as it keepa going "IP address cannot be found". But if I go through my email and click to see and inbox message, it loads fine. Any ideas?

      I'm guessing the owners changed it from .co.uk to .uk last couple of days as it was listed as .co.uk in my favourites.  The old .co.uk is now completely deaded... ahh the joys of domain renewal and change

      Funnily enough I can’t access the forum through the free BT wi-fi in work but no problem on mobile data . We used to have sky cloud and no problem but BT ? Nope not having it ! ?

  4. 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.
  5. Try northwestcerakote. Smaller scale one man band (i think) and I got my cz75 done there and it was pretty good and fast.
  6. 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.
  7. 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).
  8. 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.
  9. Steel barrel and trades I believe. Not really worth imo. The stock kjw one without trades is even cheaper at around £100 if you can find one. The coating on it is the same on all versions and tbh it isn't that great. I got mine cerakoted in silver and it's much better.
  10. Yes, I occasionally go pistol only in woodland games. Best performing one I had was the kjw 1911 on co2. Was amazingly accurate and worked decent in cold, misty weather.
  11. "Can't promisse any money at start, but we would share agreed percentage on the finished products" I really think you need to rework your business plan before you take someone on board to make stuff for you. If I was a candidate, that kind of phrase would make me run away faster than a speeding bullet. IMO, it's either you pay them upfront for their work or it's nothing. Because, as you said, it's risky and you've not shown that there is market potential for these kinds of products. So if you do happen to take on some talented person on an agreed percentage, and the business flops, that talented individual has worked hard and wasted much of his time for diddly squat. After all, it is your dream, not theirs. For most airsoft/robotics projects, python should be adequate and there are a lot of free learning resources out there.
  12. They're ok, but nothing special. Had one of their M4s before. The recoil is noticeable but it's just a kinda feels like a rubberband being pinged at you. Looking at patrolbase atm, around 350+ for one of those things. I can't really say i'd recommend it. A TM recoil M4 has much nicer externals.
  13. Unfortunate that I have to sell everything because I got slapped with 1.3k dental fees. Oh why did I not just get braces when I was younger ?

      Yes but there are some procedures that I need that arent nhs covered, so most of the cpst goes towards that. 

  14. The king arms ones are better than the kjw ones and they have the adjustable fps bolts right off the bat. Available too right now... but on places like justbbguns for some reason ahha
  15. Long time bump but the test has ended. I wrote a final summary here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UEbdWLlQ0mhU6KDJK4WMe1JZ5D6dEQYOkyd7ipUBJ2s/edit?usp=sharing During the time of the test, I have further iterated a superior version of it with textured sides: Which looks like this: The biggest obstacle currently is money ahah. I will have to get some of that first. Work + sell off a bunch of stuff.
  16. A maple leaf crazy jet will lower it a decent bit if you havent got that for it already
  17. "Patent fire control system without hammer" Well... that's not gonna stop the clone manufacturers
  18. Hate to say it but the ssg10 is up your alley. It does work decent out of the box. You mean this stock? It's available as a separate piece: https://www.wgcshop.com/products/maple-leaf-mlc-s2-stock In terms of tuning, gas sniper rifles require the least amount because they don't have to hold any heavy springs for prolonged periods of time. Most of the just need a new hop bucking and barrel and you're set. They're my favourite kind of sniper rifles but you have to work around the gas performance fluctuations.
  19. Looked very unimpressive here
  20. I mostly buy parts and that's from AK2M4. If I do buy a new gun, generally Airsoftworld has served me well.
  21. I had the Korth PRS, it was shit. When you see the real korth prs, you see the nice shiny, smooth steel. What do you get with the ICS? A flimsy pistol with horrific external coating. Like wtf is that shit on the outside? It's like a matte, rocky finish that feels like plastic. I'd rather take WE's terrible chrome finish to what the Korth has. Performance was also "meh". It was ok but it has a really weak recoil spring which made the impulse feel mushy. I bought it for £150 off taiwangun at the time which was a robbery. Seem to be on sale for £125 on firesupport right now which is still a robbery.
  22. I have always wondered, in my 10+ years of being into airsoft, if any authority has ever cared about painting an airsoft in any way...
  23. Soaked. Soaked to fuck. Removed my gloves for one game because they were soaked, got both middle and ring finger shot which are now bruised and swollen in a nice purple colour. Goggles fogged up to fuck all day. People left one by one because of the weather. When it ended, walked for 30 min in torrential rain with no cover and sat on the bus for an hour with all my stuff laid out everywhere on the top floor. Still was a decent day though.
  24. I'm obsessed with gas sniper rifles...

      Yesss! Join the club! :D

       

      I can't go back to spring any more. I have a spring VSR as well as my CO2 one, but I never want to use it.

      Ye I cant get get the same satifaction from spring rifles. The sounds, real mag placement, and making the chaotic gas work just feels better. Main limitation yesterday with my m40a5 was working around the fps drop after firing quickly. 

  25. https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/uhc-ak74-su-hybrid-dual-system-aeg-bb-gun-rifle-in-clear.html Reminded me of this when I first saw this thread
