Top edge wants to be roughly level with the notch between your collar bones: Back plate wants to be about the same position...except on your back. Obvs.

Helical gears are great when they're spot on. If they're not spot on they're fucking atrocious! The motor insertion could just be the angle of the pistol grip. When I made my MK12 I used an SPR style grip and it didn't matter what I did with the shimming, the motor was a struggle to seat and sounded like a bag of cats. Swapped the grip to an Ergo style one and it's been SO much better.

This. 100%. I'd echo the comments above though, move the dump pouch to either the rear or side (your 8 o'clock or 4 o'clock depending on if you're right or left handed) and on your belt instead of hanging off your plate carrier. Consider a chest rig instead of a plate carrier. Get a better helmet. Maybe look at trousers in a better cut that allows more freedom of movement (like a G3 style for example).

Abdo panels for the win. As a *ahem* larger gentleman, I wear my knock off AVS where it "should" be, the main issue of size being more related to how all the chinese knock offs are sized for a small or at best medium plate bag. Given that the plate is only supposed to cover the vital organs, it looking like a tactical tube top is pretty much a foregone conclusion when the plate bag is smaller than it should be for your frame. If you want more protection from BBs in those soft squidgy areas, get an abdo panel, side plate bags etc, don't just try and cover what you have with the PC, it just looks stupid.

E&C shells are very good. I have one in my Specna SA-A03 (because it came with it), one I built from the ground up in my MK12 DMR and another in a Salient GRY copy that I'm building (came as a complete gearbox).

Yeah, yeah. We all know you came to post about your undying love for Kryptek Typhon. It's ok, you're among friends.

Yeah...keep going. You're fine.

I've had a couple of those on my scopes for a while! Dead handy and cheap!

I'm pretty sure he started his channel for the narcissism aspect along with all his peers like THG, Names Nicco etc but he definitely caught on to the style of videos that people were engaging with and saw a revenue stream from it. Everything I've seen from him does seem to mark him out as a massive wankspangle though.

Is the right answer. There are camo patterns that will help you blend in, undoubtedly but at the ranges we play at knowing how not to be seen is way more important than what shade of green your camo is. That being said, I like US Woodland, tiger stripe (not the wanky blue stuff though) and ATACS iX for woodland. Avoid big blocks of black, learn how to use cover and concealment properly and you'll be reet.

This. 100%. Nope, for money. Views = ad revenue. Licking Wankstain did a livestream interview where he was quite open about why he makes his videos the way he does and purely and simply it's because they make him more money that way. He's not there because he likes airsoft, he's there because he like the notoriety and because it makes him money. At least, until the videos get demonetised.

It's not airsofters that watch them though, it's people like my brother in law who have absolutely no intention of ever playing but think he's hilarious. Ladbible has a lot to answer for. A good few sites have banned "cheater exposed" type videos already and some have outright banned cameras. All because the YT algorithm pays out more to clickbait fuck-knuckles like KM than to anything "sensible".

Are you sure about that? Their website says it's female (looks like it too) In which case you'll need one of these: https://hobbyking.com/en_us/mini-tamiya-female-to-xt60-male-battery-adapter-2pcs.html?wrh_pdp=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google_gb_shopping&countrycode=GB&gclid=CjwKCAjw3K2XBhAzEiwAmmgrAsOC6b7WeemgLlRDKJ_WqjTOV7ZJjJSvaf_qvmx0B3ThucaqPdcKThoC4qkQAvD_BwE&___store=en_us and then swap the wires over in the Tamiya end.

F&O have made no bones about telling everyone he's banned!

Have you got precocking enabled on the Perun? I wanted to use one on my EBR but when I found out you have to pull the trigger AND push a button on the mosfet to release it, it put me off a bit.

I can hardly talk, my MK12 was built from scratch so not exactly the cheapest way to go! I'm fortunate in that I can handle the engineering involved in putting airsoft bits together well enough.

Fair point, but the point is that you don't have to buy a £325 base gun and then spunk another £300 before it becomes a useful DMR. Bolties are very much more in the camp of needing to spend money to make it work well (outside of the odd outliers that have been "pre-upgraded"). If you work on the concept that a DMR just needs to have good range and accuracy then a completely standard Cyma M14 and some decent ammo will happily meet that criteria. Yes, a good trigger response is nice to have but it's not the end of the world if the gearbox is a bit lazy when you're in a role that affords you a bit more time to take aim and place your shots. If you had Luke fit a ZCI barrel and a maple leaf rubber and nub, that would improve it a good deal and not cost you anywhere near £300. Just for clarity I'm not saying you shouldn't have done that, I'm saying that if you don't want to sink £650 into a DMR, you don't have to.

Steiner OTAL at a guess. Might help if you got a better pic.

Let's be fair though, you don't need to spend that much on the base gun OR pay someone else that amount to make it better. There's plenty of decent base guns out there around £200 that will work just fine and cost a lot less to upgrade. Of course, if it's your money and you're happy with it then more power to your elbow, other people's mileage WILL vary.

Chunks of it are 3D printed but yeah, some parts look to be machined.

Sooo.... he's added shell ejection now https://www.reddit.com/r/airsoft/comments/wec8l3/shell_ejecting_function_has_been_added_to_the_gm6/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

If you stay with Gate, the Nano ASR will work well for what you want. https://gatee.eu/products/aeg-mosfets/nanoasr As the Gate products share common connectors you can fit the same wiring to your M4 and swap it over easily, or even upgrade to a Warfet in your M4 without having to rewire it.

I've only used a plug in Kong Power Burst Fet in mine. Why specifically the Warfet? I don't see any real benefits to having a programmable 'fet in an LMG.
