I figured it was comedy I did find someone saying that they'd bought the Lonex hop for their G&G M14 but that it was actually worse that the stock one. As you say, doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info about...

Soooo....buy a whole new gun?

I have more issues organising all my mates to turn up than I do fitting a game around the rest of my life!

Evike also list the G&P one as being an upgrade for the G&G but I have no experience of it.

Good man. So much fun.

I vote Team Fluffy Unicorn assembles at Snakeeyes' next game and all take turns in asking him for BBs and to hold our guns for us. All. Day. Long.

You should be able to use a standard V2 switch assembly. Try www.ak2m4.co.uk

Sounds like the trigger contacts are screwed. Easy fix, cheap parts.

I do know someone actually. Leave it with me. It's gonna be a thing.

Yes. It'll be fine and should make your trigger response a little snappier.

But of course.

I'm thinking maybe some of us need to start a new team...."Team Fluffy Unicorn" maybe. We could all have a patch of a VERY fluffy unicorn and people would know they could ask (nicely) for a bit of ammo and not get sent away with a flea in their ear.

I mean....yes the guns are expensive and in many cases the gear is too but one of the things that sets airsoft aside from paintball is the cost of ammunition. A typical bottle of 3000 rounds costs what, a tenner? So 0.33p per round. So let's say you give away a hi cap's worth, we're only talking about a quid. A mk5, £2? Maybe £2.50 if you've bought it onsite. If these tiny little amounts are that big a deal to you then maybe you've chosen the wrong hobby... Think about it this way - some rental kid who has clearly been having a load of fun (on account of having run out of ammo) asks you if you have any spare. You look in your bag and yes, you have more than you actually need. You could just say no. He'll go away deflated and you'll have either a sense of pride in having managed to keep that extra pounds worth of ammo for another day OR maybe you'll get that niggling little doubt in the back of your mind that actually, ACTUALLY you could have been a better person back there. Alternatively you could actually say "yeah sure, fill your boots" (hopefully he wouldn't really fill his boots cos that's WAY more than a hi caps worth). He goes away happy, you get a warm sense of pride that you've improved someone else's day and maybe, just maybe you've made a new friend. Is your life so full and rich that you don't need any more friends? I seriously doubt it. Life is short. Don't squander it being mean.

This.

If I have some spare 0.2 or 0.25 then giving some away if they ask nicely and aren't a dick about it doesn't seem like a problem. I can understand not wanting to give away heavyweights but standard ammo is so cheap I really can't see a problem with it.

What changes are you looking for? Jez at ProAirsoft Supplies is very good.

Not yet, but having bought a spare box mag for my SAW I'm tempted to have a go!

The sliding adjuster on a V3 hop unit is held in place by a small screw. Tighten the screw up a bit and job's a good 'un.

Have you tried www.firesupport.co.uk? They have quite a few TM OEM parts. Also try ehobby Asia.

Fair point about indoors actually, when some people have been at the Mall wearing UCP they have blended in quite well.

If it will take genuine Respro filters, get some in it and use it for a pollution mask if you go cycling in town or whatever but at the end of the day it's a neoprene mask with holes cut in it. Neoprene masks do absolutely nothing to prevent your teeth getting shot out. What you could do is ditch the filter part and wear it under mesh lower face mask to make it more comfortable.

Knock off of a respro mask. That won't protect you for toffee.

That's not entirely true. You can just reinsert them into the mag pouches. Dump pouches are fine if you don't mine clattering about once you have a couple of empties in there.
