      Success! My new keys came today and took the screws out perfectly. Now to figure out how to remove the rest of it!

      Remove the rear sights then that whole unit should come out. It will be quite hard to remove, but don't put stress on the plastic nozzle or you'll run the risk of snapping it. Takes a lot of patience the first time.

  2. Had one of those "hold your tongue" moments yesterday

      Hi! Thanks for the well wishes guys :) My body aches like never before! I have "more or less passed" I'm on medical deferral until I get some glasses as my vision is not good enough for the Army Air Corps. Was a great experience! Only thing I hated was that I was sleeping in a room with 25 other guys (most were 25 + going for reserves) snoring and farting like I've never experienced before :P Lots of good banter though and the staff there were pretty cool, gotta ge...

  4. Looking for a recommendation on a good place to send a v7 gearbox for repair. Currently looking at ASPUK. Any recommendations?

      Managed to find a UK seller for the gearbox so I've bought a cyma one for £50 including postage. Just gotta wait until Tuesday now.

      Here's the link if anyone needs it. Their online payment is down at the moment so you have to ring them up if you want to buy things. https://www.roefirearms.co.uk/m14-gearbox-cyma

  5. Just watched a bb ping off of my gopro and I didn't call it (didn't hear it)... Now I feel like a right scumbag.

      Cheers guys. It looks really bad on video though. I was suppressing this guy and he peaks out for 2 shots one hits me square in the gopro and I just keep laying it on him haha.

      Sitting Duck

      The good thing is you got a conscience and integrity - all we can do is try to call every hit - even sometimes we ain't sure of - rebound/ricochet etc... as long as not deliberate failing toi call you got nowt to beat yourself up about too much - good on ya for admitting & feeling bad

      You can't call what you can't see/feel/hear.

  6. Took the grips off my WE p226 to give them a spray paint. Resembled it and now it only shoots upside down...

      TomC

      Should of explained it a bit better haha. The hammer doesn't lock back with the trigger pull just no response when its normal way up. When its upside down the hammer moves as normal.

    3. TomC

      TomC

      Its the "s-42/43" parts where there is a issue. The S43 part isn't in the right position should be pulled up a bit more.

    4. proffrink

      proffrink

      Yeh, there's a spring that pushes the trigger bar up and sits inside a small groove.

  7. I presume patrol base are a trust worthy website? It's just that I purchased a Grip Pod and sling from them on Wednesday and they haven't even handed it to the courier yet (I was supposed to be here on the 30th). Emailed them to find out what is going on earlier today and no response :/

      I emailed them at 1PM yesterday, still no response. Will have to give them a ring I think. Not that worried anyway I'm sure this will all get sorted out.

      They're like one of the most trusted, I shop there all the time at their store and are great. Yeah two_zero Rocky climb Dave works there.

      Just got off the phone with them and it seems like my order was just lost in the whole process. The guy on the phone apologized and offered to send it out to me tomorrow and he's going to chuck in some free BB's as well! Glad this is all sorted out :)

      Have you looked on Taiwan Gun? From memory they have loads of stocks.

      Yeah just had a quick gander and couldn't see anything there.

      That sucks. I'll let you know if I find anything, but in the meantime...good luck.

  10. Anyone know the name of the camo the Russians are using in Ukraine at the moment?

      Airsoft_Mr B

      I like how Russia still says they're 'pro-Russian defence forces' or something when they are like 30,000 of their troops there with current issue stuff by the looks of it. Same here though it's a really nice camo.

      I also doubt people in Crimea can afford tricked out AK105s with buffer tubes,magpul stocks,RIS systems and Eotech sights.

      Airsoft_Mr B

      Crimea: where everyone owns a GAZ MRAP :D average family car. There were reports of a hovercraft there too (Kubr class or something)

      If you bought from there before you get credit in ya e-wallet so could be totally free if you got £6. It is good coz helps to pay for shipping from e-wallet

    3. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      Works out about 5% earnt from purchases goes into e-wallet. Can't use e-wallet n PayPal so have to pay by credit card to use ya e-wallet. Ho hum better than nothing

  11. Brand new G&P m14 firing full auto in semi... Using a 11.1v lipo when it recommends 7.4v could that be the issue? Don't know much about AEG's.

      TomC

      Alright man I was about to take a look at the gear box but I guess that is not necessary. Ill grab a 7.4v and give it a go. Cheers.

    3. Spatch

      Spatch

      Do not use an 11.1! Your gearbox will last about 10 minutes, they don't recommend certain batteries because they feel like it

    4. TomC

      TomC

      In all honesty the only reason I got the 11.1 was because I plan to hook it up with a HPA system. So I didn't really care to much if it broke. Thanks for the help anyways :)

  12. Doh! Charging handle on my CM16 raider just sprung apart in my hands. Anyone know how to re-assemble it?

    1. TomC
    2. Hibernator

      Hibernator

      If the catch has popped out, you're missing the roll pin. You need to line up the catch with the hole in the handle and bash the pin back in!

    3. TomC

      TomC

      Yeah I thought I was missing something attach the pieces together... I have no idea where that has gone though

      :(

    1. Mike636

      I have :) very reasonable and free shipping :)

    2. TomC

      TomC

      Ok cool! Just making sure they were at least moderately trustworthy! Looking at buying a flashlight from them which £15 cheaper than anywhere in the uk!

    3. Teo

      Teo

      I bought en element m600c and a t1 of them. Postage was a expensive though and the torch button back wouldn't fit on the torch.

  17. My CM16 GBB keeps dumping gas everywhere on different mags after a couple of shots. Tried two different bucking's still happens. Any ideas?

    1. Monty

      Monty

      Bucking won't affect it, there's a problem with either the magazines or the trigger mech. Have you cleaned them both recently?

    2. jcheeseright

      jcheeseright

      G&G GBBs use the GHK drop in box Monty.... pain in the ass to open up and clean.

      its too cold. use an AEG for a few weeks.

  18. Anyone know of if RMR adapters for WE G17's will work with G34's? Specifically the one from dave's custom airsoft. Emailed him and he said he doesn't know.

    1. Hef Legend

      Hef Legend

      Foundry Airsoft on FB. He made me a G17 one and he can 3D print others, hell of a lot cheaper than Daves Customs

    2. TomC

      TomC

      Cheers mate, I'll take a look.

  19. The barrel nut from my angry gun wirecutter wont screw down all the way on my tippmann?

    1. Hef Legend

      Hef Legend

      Did you specifically buy the milspec nut? Otherwise unless specified you'd of got an AEG spec which doesn't fit on the Tippman

    2. TomC

      TomC

      yeah that will be it. I have the AEG one it seems. Just found one on milspec solutions and the guy had the same issue as me. Cheers Hef ;)

  20. Airsoft Peak down for anyone else?

      It's back up now :)

  21. I've got some ruined threads on my angry gun outer barrel. As I understand it I can use a Tap & Die to fix it. Question is do I need bigger Tap & Die than the holes (3mm) or the same size?

    1. Lozart

      Lozart

      You either need a Tap (inside threads) OR a Die (outside threads). Unless you're planning on drilling it out fitting a thread repair kit then you need it the same size as it's supposed to be. If it's a blind thread (not all the way through) you'll need a plug tap.

    2. TomC

      TomC

      cheers lozart, looks like im just going to drill a 4mm hole and use a new nut and bolt.
