      Just popping in/out to see how you chaps are doing...

      Years have flown by, looked around & Duck Jnr is at Uni (2nd year)

      Jeez, so just messing about with some bits n bobs

      (looking at fixing all them guns I busted in the past)

       

      So just checking in now n then to see what's what

      maybe Baby Duck might do some plinking soon

      (12 going 13, so who knows I might be skirmishing in a zimmer frame)

       

      But just starting to tinker again on crappy cheapo guns I broke

      Nice to see you guys are still around

       

      missed you lot too btw

       

  2. Outer diameter and maybe the length. (Just because I'm lazy to make a few test prints to get the proper size.) I have printed guide rings for my Bar-10 and they worked nicely. PLA can be quite smooth. I've been eyeing this ring and I think I even printed one at one point but I don't remember what the outcome was. Seeing you being excited about it made me wanting it again. Thank you in advance.
  3. Could you please measure it next time you take it apart? For... khm... education.
  4. Yes, you need a piston too. Mine became useless in two games. Yes, less force will be needed when cocking. 45 degree trigger with strong spring is pressing the piston against the cylinder.
  5. You have to get a new cylinder set. The original one is completely useless. 😕
  6. NBB is a good idea, or split slide, but that still would need to be custom made. Plus not only the slide is long, but the frame too. You and the customer will have to make big compromises. (Make sure the customer knows the price. For ambitious custom requests the customer is usually surprised that a full day of my work and materials costs more than £15.)
  7. The problem is with going to work. I don't see how the arm holds the tensioner in place. Maybe it slipped too forward. Or back. I'm just guessing here. I just read on FB that ares is copying its design and soon releases their own dual bore. Hopefully cheaper.
  8. I've just upgraded mine. It's beautiful. Don't do airbreak in a striker unless it's an edgi bigger volume cylinder. The normal size doesn't have enough volume for it.
  9. A real good hop arm is gunsmithy's. It uses an SRS nub or similar. I have one and can't complain. I also have an E S custom works piston, which is really well made even though it could be a bit heavier to be perfect.
  10. Careful, we will be playing laser tag instead of airsoft at this rate. Maybe not even that. Laser melts snowflakes.
  11. No one would watch average joe's average airsoft games. Youtubers create controversial content on purpose. Look at this thread, we are talking about a video, that's exactly what they are going for. They are not like that in real life, the audience, you form them to what you want to see. So I think it's not the youtubers who influence the players to be like that, it's the other way around. Mustang moves crosshairs to the head, chooses titles and thumbnails that can be triggering, etc because that's what people want. Even the ones hating him. He's very good at creating good content from normal game days.
  12. Two months ago full thrust was the future. Are we there yet?
  13. Planetside 2. It's very hard to get the hang of it.
  14. I saw this pop up many times in the FB group, so it's definitely an existing problem.
  15. What gun, what weight BB, what barrel length? Usually it's the other way round, it's quieter when there is BB in there. As long as the cylinder barrel volume ratio makes the bb to still be in the barrel when the piston slams forward. The BB keeps the sound in the barrel.
  16. The M9's plastic slide has a weak part, but that's all I heard, the other guns are fine with gg.
  17. That was either a very good guess or you also clicked "order it printed". That came up with $65.52 which is £53. 😮
  18. @iozjik Oh, it's you. I've been looking at those on thingie for long and I must say, they are fantastic. Great job.
  19. I asked them something last week in FB message and got an answer the next day. I was happy with that.
  20. It's Aldi, isn't it? Good green it is.
