We'll see how the shop performs as I have just bought something.

Been looking at the site my views: Website looks clean and tidy. I like the fact you've added a good description for items You seem to stocking the full range or parts from shs not just a few select item. (I think these http://www.majorairsoft.co.uk/shs-fibre-reinforced-lightweight-piston-with-15-metal-teeth/ are the best pistons on the market and you guys seem to be the only people in the UK stocking them) It would be nice to seem some more unique/rare/hard to find items. This would help separate you from other retailers giving you a USP. I would also pretty much agree with what Hef has said.

Using standard sorbo pads will reduce the effectiveness of the airbrake. Also if you anything above an M100 with the airbrake it is less effective.

Airbrake to silence pistonhead. http://www.leesprecision.com/collections/aeg-internal-parts/products/cnc-machined-v2-v3-acetal-airbrake-piston-head-aoe-shims Perfect shimming/meshing, helical gears, glueing in bushing.

Pretty much what profink said, but personally I'd go for a Mancraft HPA SDiK conversion kit for the internals.

I don't think he's listening, look like he's hoping someone will spoon feed him.

I'm another one that wants a G3, got a friend that has a TM G3 with a metal body kit, looks awesome and doesn't creak!! Also does anybody know whats happening with TM HK45? I want one but they are all out of stock everywhere, last I heard they are having issues with the trades. Here's my heavily modified TM MP5K

I get my 0.2g in bulk from http://www.patrolbase.co.uk/airsoft-bbs/0-20g-blaster-6mm-bb-bundle-12-x-3000.htm#.VfA48xG6dpg £59.92 for 36,000 ASG 0.20g Blasters

I'd say he's asking too much for it, GBB barrett's were rare but now the Socom Gear Barrett has been on sale for some time.

Either blown fuse, assuming it has one or as Monty states, you've been sold a faulty gun. You could "short" an airsoft motor 9.6v battery even if the battery was the size of a house.

I've seen some very good professionally done Kryptek camo paint jobs done which looked great.

True, he doesn't say anything about testing velocity change vs distance but the theory is sound, considering it's nearly 10 years old and there has not been any real major challenges of it's accuracy it's not bad. There is this one http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/articles/fps_dist_time/fps_dist_time.htm which does have higher values for the results.

All this has already been looked at years ago, look at http://mackila.com/airsoft/atp/ for the info.

Both of these are in the US but ship to UK. http://www.clandestineairsoft.com/scatterplot-laser-cut-sorbo-pads-c-1_6_18/ http://www.brillarmory.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=49&zenid=nhrhmlmgidnkuvpcg21mbnnfq7

True, could always krylon the canister green and pretend.

SHS High tourque - http://eagle6.co.uk/shop/catalog/product/view/id/302/s/shs-high-torque-motor-long-type/ ZCI High/High speed - http://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/motors-parts/zci-motor-high-speed-high-torque-long

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlV5peGEnag This is how you test how good the compression is. i If the compression is fine try this method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFnUjxdiXuU. if that seems ok, watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj0mM8A2C3A# to find out if the nozzleand tappet is ok. The video also shows how to change the motor height. If the nozzle is fine then it is probably the spring that needs changing.

I would recommend having a go at fixing it, it will be a good learning experience The FPS loss is going to be either a compression issue or the nozzle is not engaging properly. If the handle is getting hot it probably means the motor height needs adjusting or/and it could need re-shimming. Has the previous owner been taking the gun apart?

The pentagon!!!

Internally the UV-5R and the GT3 MK II are identical the only difference is the external cosmetics and the aerial.

The standard V2 Spectre won't fit in a TM recoil gear box.

Best to keep the High speed motor assuming it's got neodymium magnets and use a 7.4v LiPo. If you use the stock motor and an 11.1v LiPo you will most likely suffer from overspin as most stock motors use ferro magnets, motors with neodymium magnets stop a lot quicker thus less overspin. # You need to determine what you want from the gun e.g. high rate of fire, quick trigger response, etc.

If you want great trigger response but not high rate of fire you I would recommend a ZCI High torque motor and a SHS 12:1 gear set. The ZCI is slow but has huge amounts of torque (it will happily pull an M170 spring on a 10:1 gear set)
