The rifle on its own is about a kilo lighter. How the LPVO/RDS stacks up against a SUSAT someone else would have to check.

Obligatory meme response:

Pretty sure those are a slightly different set of balls altogether...

Accessories like what, exactly?

BE CAREFUL with those tabs. If they snap you'll need a new receiver.

Has someone changed the hop unit? The original is a two part unit that should come apart when you split the receiver. If it's the original receiver but an aftermarket, one piece hop unit then the hop unit itself may be getting stuck as the receiver has a different profile.

I feel your pain!

Yes.

ESS still make the Turbofan Profile model but they seem to be moving towards a passive anti-fog solution. Probably down to weight/battery availability at a guess? See if they're at DSEI and ask?

Storage charging is really only needed if you're planning to not use them for several months.

They've pretty much all gone online! We had a surprising lack of surplus stores where I grew up given that it was up the road from Sandhurst and Aldershot. HM Supplies was in the town (Camberley) and there was always a good stall at the weekly market at Blackbushe but otherwise you were pretty much stuck with high end military tailors or places flogging new Kombat UK gear!

FTFY.

Honestly - don't waste your time. Unless your inner barrel is flapping about like a dick in a shirtsleeve, wrapping anything around it to stabilise it is a bit pointless unless you're looking to make it into a DMR in which case there's plenty of other things to try first.

Yes...and no. All springs will lose power over time because their very nature makes it happen. Bad springs just lose power more quickly. The trick is using a spring that degrades at an acceptable rate.

It's £25, make an educated guess. Good optics cost money, that said airsoft guns are not so accurate that bad parallax actually makes much of a difference. It can be annoying but that's about it.

I wouldn't worry so much about the M-Lok as that gopping stock but each to their own.

I have a couple of LPVOs with red dot (Docter type) sights on. If you have the LPVO zoomed to anything other than x1 then the red dot does allow for more situational awareness if you're shooting at something up close. Mine sit on top of the optic though. I do also have an SR-25k with angled iron sights but that is purely for looks. Canting an airsoft gun is a really good way of not actually hitting what you're aiming at!

Says man in a ghillie suit....

I'm sure she does.

I had the non blowback gas one of those!

MP5 sling or GTFO.

I used to use fineline tape or Tamiya model tape to stope edge bleed. That said, I was using an airbrush and lower pressures than a rattle can will achieve. Frog tape is fine for decorating but for crisp lines on hard surfaces with very thing paints (like aerosols) they're too crepey and the thickness of the tape itself leaves an upstanding edge you have to sand back.

Is this the kind of thing you're looking for? https://boomarms.com/products/guarder-steel-mainspring-housing-for-tm-m1911-meu-l-a-vickers https://www.wgcshop.com/en-kr/products/aip-1911-magwell-for-marui-1911-meu-gbb-airsoft

Must get a couple of those!
