better to use the website buddy as it's much cheaper on there. instead of the sorbo pads go for a £2 set of AOE washers, much easier to fit. as i said you may not need to fit them, there's a lot of debate at the moment etc.

Grab something like a CYMA 15 tooth or Rocket 14 tooth to replace. You might want to correct AOE with some spacers, it's not 100% necessary but it's something I would do personally. I'd also epoxy down the rack, again that's just me. Thread-lock that gear screw and the piston head screw just to be on the safe side. The height of pistons actually vary slightly, generally around 0.5mm. From the looks of your piston, it's similar to the E&C design which is one of the larger bodies. It's about 0.6mm taller than the XT / Rocket pistons I've got

you said SHS, i sell Rocket ones 🙂 bent spur gear shafts can happen but I've not come across it for a long time. the spur gear definitely isn't getting caught on the case right? - check there's no separation between the layers of the spur gear - check all teeth are intact, no burrs or anything like that - do you have another shell you can test them in? - have you got another set of gears to try? If not send em back to me and I'll test them here, occasionally I do get customers where shs / rocket gears just don't work for one reason or another, generally we swop to a set of ZCI and that fixes the problem. it's very rare but it happens

post up a pic of the inside shell just to be on the safeside, if you have another shell to test the gears would be a good idea. also post up a pic of the gears, are they legit shs?

Wow, that's about £40, the Danish are quite generous with their gift allowance 🙂

I believe parcel2go uses an auto code lookup feature, you shouldn't even be able to generate an order without a code, well I couldn't when I used it last week

who did you send it with? bit strange they returned it. what was on the description? you can try this code: : 9503007000, which is toys, games, sports someone may have a better code to use.

hey bud, I don't know a huge amount about batteries but if someone you know has another charger it might be worth getting them to try a charge and then see how that pans out. I use one of these mini voltage checkers, only tells you the voltage but it's handy to have and only costs a few quid. A multimeter will work as well though.

What kind of charger are you using? Do you have one of those small battery voltage checkers?

Maybe there's someone local to you who would order for you? Where about's are you? Some Asian companies I've seen are also advertising split packages, might be worth looking into.

That is perfect, I'm guessing you have a bearing on the spring guide and bearing on the piston head? Bumps up the fps a little.

Happened to one that Luke / Negative Airsoft was working on last year. Bit of an arse to repair.

"check with your customs, it's your job to contact them - you left the EU!!!!!!!!!!!" Did that actually say that word for word? If so it's pretty bad. What info did the tracking number give? Who was the courier?

I'll post out this afternoon, there's a chance it'll arrive by tomorrow.

160mm with 1.3mm wire but with only 23 coils, most probably linear spring. Have you run through at least 1000 cycles / rounds? Have you left the spring in a compressed state for 24 hours? Those 2 things can help to some degree. You can trim off a coil but the spring is already quite short (may have an affect). You could try a cheap ZCI as @Cr0-Magnon suggests or I have brand new Gearparts M95 springs.

@Dacks_18 UKARA doesn't allow for visits to other sites for the 3 game rule. It's one of the limitations. Would be good to see any future system incorporate such a feature, however any system like this costs time and money. Technically you could get proof you played these sites on the dates and then ask the retailer if that would be sufficient enough for them to sell the RIF to you.

I was surprised they got the go-ahead for this. Friend of mine used to work there as a prison guard, 400 players does sound quite a lot, difficult to judge though. Only 5 mins from me.

Yes, was more trouble than they are worth - my experience of course.

if you can find them, ARMY did a pretty good clone of the TM SOPMOD about 10 years ago, not sure if they are still making them, still have mine. cost £130 if I remember right

@shadowfacex good start indeed, have you thought about creating an account system where a site owner would register and then they can add, and then edit their site details, price, opening etc. Saves you from having to edit the info yourself.

@straffham what were you planning on buying? I know some retailers would take a forum profile as valid defense, might be worth a shot.

clean using spirit without the bucking of course! never a fan of silicon oil, always found it never cleaned that well, just me of course, everyone is different. Do whatever works for you, what you have round.

ideally you want the 8mm bull brand with a couple of drops of surgical sprit soaked into the filter, heck you could also just use a bit of tissue with some water will also do the job.

You can buy a SLR M4 polymer receiver on aliexpress for around £40, it's pretty decent, designed for gel blasters but can be modified for airsoft. I've also got a couple of the battlearms receivers still left over but these required a fair bit of modification. keep meaning to get around to putting them together

you can get 16awg wire which doesn't have the super thick silicone protection, generally the silicone shielding OD is 3mm whist the normal ptfe shielding is 2mm. However you will loose flexibility in the wire.
