Samurai

Nickname, because ppl can't pronounce my surname. Not that anyone in the world actually calls me Samurai.

TM recoil mags: Normal M4 mags:

We all do that once.

If you are going to upgrade it, get an A&K or cyma M24. If you intend to leave it stock, go for the TM. Taiwangun or Gunfire are great sources if you know what you want.

180 is too good for a recoil, so it isn't.

Believe it or not, there are people who can hit with the first shot. The trick is to not to shoot until you know you can hit. These people did spent hours on a range, setting the hopup, the optics, finding the best BB weight and brand, fine-tuning the gun, and learning what their gun can do. Then spent many many games learning to stalk, to use cover, to learn how to out think the opponent, fine-tuning the gear every single game and reading about it between games. There is a play style like that and there is the one with lots of BBs, high ROF and no sights on the gun at all, and everything in between. I made a lot of first shot hits and I took many showers of BBs too. There is no superior way. You feel success if you are successful with your chosen play style. Success in airsoft is not measured by others or by who wins an objective. It's only measured by how much fun you have.

As long as there are people standing in plain sight and shooting full auto, there is need for hicaps. And people do that. It's a skirmish there are every kind of players. If you go for the more tactical way where you actually aim before you shoot, sneak, etc. then midcaps are better.

Similar thing. Milsim event. Our firegroup of 6 was ambushed and mostly taken out, except for our medic who was hiding in a ditch. The marshall points at him "There is one more". F*** ***

He wrote last week that he stopped selling guns.

It installs a service that regularly reports to their server even if you don't have the actual app running. If you can control your firewall you are most likely able to stop it, but their protection is quite clever and you can't be 100% sure.

I'm sorry to hear that too. I had something similar when I stopped fixing other people's guns. I enjoyed it for some years but after getting entangled in it and having some really bad days, I questioned if I really wanted it. I still enjoying building guns but I didn't enjoy taking apart a crappy one the 20th time so I stopped doing that. Keep what you like leave what you don't. Maybe if you change your play style, it will be interesting and challenging again. Grab a bolt action rifle if you didn't already - something like that.

And there is usually no reason to do so. Change the rubber and in case of an M4 fix it with a rubber patch between the body and the hopup. Except if it's a Boyi. Boyi hopups are often don't have the shaft exactly in the middle.

It's also great if you don't know how to shoot and have no idea about moving under fire and have no intention to learn it instead you solve the problem with money. At least that's what I think when I see one.

I would never be able to pay for solidworks and I have heard that when someone gets it "free" they can and will trace it and knock on the door with the invoice. I have tried the free and low budget CADs, and found the PTC Creo Elements to be exceptionally great. It's free and once you learn it, you can do everything a hobbyist needs. There are a lot of tutorial vids on their page and every tool has a help that's also good. For me it had a steep learning curve.

Yes I know but we were talking about the Mp5. But even the Mp5k or pdw is fully upgradeable internally.

?? They have exactly the same v2 as the M4, except the trigger.

Clean the barrel with rubbing alcohol on the cleaning rod, use quality 0.25 or 0.28 BBs and set the hopup and the sights properly. These can increase the range and accuracy dramatically.

Hm. And this is why a shop should be really careful with choosing who represents it in public.

I don't trust G&Ps. They look fine but the internals aren't very good. If you do buy it you should change the gears and the piston head.

Welcome. Don't bother changing the stock IMO. It's a great basic gun. Use it until it breaks, and later upgrade to a cyma 048.

Awesome review. The grip, the lack of rails and the flash hider are very disappointing and I think everyone will loose the stock's buttplate in about 10 seconds. The hopup the ambi selector are nice, but nothing special. There just can't be that much magic in the gearbox that is a standard v2 + fet + qd spring that would reason the price for me.

An M4 platform is one of the worst choices for a DMR. It has the worst hopup. You can use the newer hopups with one wheel, but they are still greatly inferior to for example a standard M14 hopup. M14 is the bestest dmr, then the G3 is also great, SL8 if you like how it looks. Then maybe AKs types. The AS VAL and Vintorez are nice looking guns and should be fine as DMRs, but I never owned one of those. And then there are the less common ones. Aug, FN Fal, Galil, SVD, etc.

I really like the hard case for the guns. But if you have to walk around with it, then a soft carry bag that you can put on your shoulders.

you shouldn't
