  1. It's that simple, but they have low discharge rates, so use it with light loads: no high torque or speed motors, not too strong spring, etc. Also, soldering them into a stick is very tricky, especially if they don't have soldering tabs on them. Or should I say super hard without some proper equipment as solder wont flow on their ends as you would've expected and heating it for more than a second or so will damage the battery.
  2. If there's metal on the gun, get some fine sanding paper and gently sand away the black paint on places that would rub if you were using it. Around where you grip it, magwell, anything that sticks out or is a sharp edge. Don't go crazy on that. Put the gun on the ground somewhere you can paint it, lightly paint it with one or two colours, kick it until it lands on its other side and do the same there. Then get some rubbing alcohol (super hard to find now), or white spirit on a towel and gently rub it with long moves so the paint gets removed from anywhere you would usually touch while using it. Do not use acetone, that will melt the plastic parts.
  3. Don't get a longer barrel unless you get the bigger volume cylinder. Get the as02 and a suppressor to make it longer and quieter.
  4. The length doesn't matter. Also, next time slide the top off before undoing the screws. Good luck putting it back together.
  5. Internally they are OK, and they can be very accurate after a good cleaning. The plastic body creaks a bit, and it looks like on this model there's not much space for batteries. The mags are big and somewhat harder to find good ones. And no fast mag change with them, they lock in place like AK mags. It is a very long gun, not CQB friendly. I couldn't reach the selector switch without shifting my grip. Give it a good re-shim, re-lube and it should be fine as they are designed for more than 350 fps.
  6. You need to use a 90 degree trigger system as the linked one. The original 45 degree one is designed for 300 fps.
  7. Thanks @Tommikka for that link. I've been looking for some unusual sized o rings and these guys have them.
  8. Don't spam the trigger. Always fully depress it.
  9. I have had 3 forever AEGs so far, now I'm on my second forever boltie. 🤷‍♂️
  10. TM: was it unused for a long time? Change the O ring on the piston and the hopup rubber. JG: 1: make sure you pull the trigger all the way every time and use a good battery. 3: checkup, clean and relube
  11. Conical piston head (silencioso) might be one problem. Try with the original in it. The silencioso doesn't silenciose anyway. A sorbo pad does much better job, but that takes away some volume that you would need for such long barrel.
  12. Maple leaf buckings' QC is lacking lately. You should try some other, like the new Modify one. I heard good things about it. I personally use Flamingo. I'd use softer one, 60, maybe 50, depending on the weight you use.
  13. This. Keep improving your product, so the competitors are left behind. Do it at a price that's not more than the double of the copies, do better marketing. Ideas will be stolen. Having a good idea and half assedly selling is not enough.
  14. I have already pre-ordered, thanks, Skara. I'm quite hyped for this. I was looking into somehow making a GBB that only moves the minimum parts needed before this appeared.
  15. Yay, Duck is back 🎉🦆🎉

      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

       

  16. 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.
  17. Could you please measure it next time you take it apart? For... khm... education.
  18. Minimum posts before classifieds results shitposting. A lot of it.
  19. 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.
  20. You have to get a new cylinder set. The original one is completely useless. 😕
  21. 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.)
  22. Are you aware the UKARA number is a proof that he is an airsoft player. Even if he is a scammer scum, he is a player, why would they delete his number? Are they going to be the judge and convict him before the police does and punish him in a completely unrelated way? SJW mentality is just bad.
  23. 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.
