It's all just snake oil in my opinion, the slightest bit of wind is going to affect accuracy significantly more than any diameter of barrel will.

Have you actually got the legislation to support that?, Obviously selling unauthorised ex MOD kit is illegal, but the items themselves aren't as far as I can tell.
I have legitimate access to a Mk7 and know many that do, and Level 4 plates for that matter. I can guarantee if you approached Morgan with enough cash, you could walk out with a Mk7.

I said forget it just refund my money. At which point they then said I would have to pay a 20% handling charge to cancel my order.
So long as this was within 14 days of receiving the item, (which it obviously is in your case, as you haven't received it) you have the right to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations (superseded the old Distance Selling Regs)
Them claiming a 20% restocking fee for an item not dispatched is illegal and you need to tell them! Post 14 days they are within their rights to and have no obligation to accept the item back. But as you have paid and they have not dispatched, you are covered.
As per always don't just take legal advice from some faceless moron on t'internet, go off and do your own research on the CCR.
But a strongly worded letter, threatening small claims court for breech of cantract and CCR breeches would be my next priority.

See the trick is to not get caught .....

Walting is not off topic at all, it's bang on the topic and it's exactly what I am reffering to and trying to avoid.
I agree completely with everything said so for about being "that guy" to the point I sometimes do feel ashamed of playing airsoft and don't like donning the MTP. Most of my guns are very demillitaized.
It's worth noting that Mr Mitty doesn't just exist exclusively as a forces fantasist, they also exist in civi street and In my day job specifically there are a lot of Walts who simply "don't know, what they don't know"

Thank you everyone for your input, it is greatly appreciated.
And the ZCI box is really great, the issues are all down to me and the parts not the box.

The nozzle direction was because of the stress put on it by the gear, now they have been lowered and a slice of the tappet arm removed it flows freely. Simply shimmed too high.
After a weekend of tweaking, fiddling and contemplating taking up golf I have resided to the SPR taking a back seat and making it a shorty gun. With a 250mm barrel and maple leaf rubber it's now shooting 280-285 on .25 so just shy of 1j which was my target. I think I may get a better seal with a g&g green though so may try that.
With the aoe Un corrected again the cylinder head is leaking a little so I may have to open it up again to address that but for now it's fairly sorted. Not the monster of smoothness I wanted but hey ho, it's not bad.
It's shooting quite accurately so i have that going for me which is nice!
I can certainly forsee a G5 making it's way onto my credit card sometime soon...

man up?
people are twats, they will be twats when you are young; they will be twats when you are old, no matter what you do in life you will be surrounded by twats. The trick it to rise above it, move on and ensure you don't become the twat yourself.
-
Yes it can. the problem was it was misaligned, The spur gear was shimmed a smidgen too high, causing all the other gears to be too high, causing the tappet to rub against the GB shell, a re shim and a small amount filed off the tappet plate arm and it now moves freely in full range.
Still only 250fps. I'm done, all out of ideas and flips to give.
-
righto, its been stripped and tweaked, various cylinders, different hop ups and rubbers, different cylinder ect all to with minimal changes to the FPS.
However it just dawned on me I don't think its a compression issue, but a drive train issue. the tappet plate and nozzle always seem to be compressed even after shooting semi auto. Also when the gearbox is closed up it feels a lot of resistance on the nozzle and is slow to return foreward.
I opened it up after a few shots on semi and found it like this:
It looks like the tappet plate is just bending upwards and not pulling back as it should. I have tried a different tappet plate and another set of gears and it keeps doing it.
Ideas?
-
I don't think that fair at all, they are very capable if you don't expect too much of them, a lot of people that bought them expected them to be like an AEG moaning about the mag cap and weigh, and complaining that you had to cock it. Mine is more accurate and has better range than my CM aeg ever did. less consistent, but no less consistent than some other gas guns.
Its far from the best, but certainly not "absolutely terrible".
-
Seals was the first thing I tried, they all seem to be pretty good. Certainly better than my g&g was and that still managed 320. I have a good rubber in my GHK so will strip that out tomorrow.
With the full cylinder in it's still only 210 FPS on .25
Tomorrow I will take the pads out completely and try again. And I may drop a 363mm barrel in to see of that makes any change. I may also back off the shims slightly, it may be slightly tight.
Thanks for the input so far, keep them coming!
-
now you have said that, I can remember reading it somewhere before. hop up seems to seal ok, a bit of a leak but a lot of resistance, so im happy with that for now untill i can get another mapleleaf hopup rubber.
Another thing I have spotted is the nozzle is always compressed and solid after shooting semi, is that normal? i never noticed it before. almost like its pre-cocked.
Do i need a delay chip maybe?
-
So, new gearbox shell arrived and is built, sits nice, shimmed nicely sounds quiet and a really nice crisp rapid trigger ...... but its only shooting 190fps (.25) with a brand new lonex 110 spring.
Air seal cylinder - head = perfect, Head- nozzle = not brilliant, but still pretty good for a moving part.
Hop up seal seems pretty good no obvious leaks, (how do you test the hop up seal?) the pressure of air leaving the gearbox feel the same with barrel or without barrel.
Piston ring is new and seal well, gears are good condition, motor is a guarder infinity torque all running on a 7.4v 25c lipo, full of juice through 16g wire.
Now I did do an AOE correction on the instructions of the youtube video, I used rubber tap washers with a nice large bore, and needed approximately 5-6 mm correction, 2 teeth lost and almost perfect engagement.
The cylinder also has a large bore hole/ inlet approx 2/3 of the way down (430mm barrel) so by moving the cylinder head space in by 6 mm i have lost a fair amount of compression volume, could that account for 150+ fps loss? or have i fluffed up the AOE? is the rubber too hard?
Finally, when shooting on semi, the piston never returns to the same position and never to The head without the spring having a degree of compression.
I cant get another standard uncorrected piston until tomorrow, but do have a spare ASG ultimate cylinder I could try tonight.
I'm getting fed up now, it started fun, now I am getting bored of it very rapidly. I should have just bought a recoil and left it alone.
Opinions please? What am I missing? What have I fluffed?
-
Is that 360 FPS standard across all magazines?
There was a 1j bolt kit for these iirc, I'm on my phone but will double check later.
-
From everything you have written you don't need a DMR, you just need a good standard AEG.
I echo lozarts suggestion of an m14! May be a nice compromise.
The advantage of 450fps is eroded by the semi only and low cap mags. Don't underestimate the ability to suppress on full auto, when you lose it, you will miss it.
Dot sights are more than accurate enough for airsoft and scopes can offer a disadvantage is aqua siting times, although a combo of scope and dr sight or relex and magnifier could be an option.
-
But that's exactly my point isn't it? There are some things that look cool but are definitely NOT acceptable to wear, such as Medals, Rank, TRF patches, TBOC patches, Taliban Hunting Club patches, crossed rifles, wings etc.
I just wanted to double check that the Punisher symbol wasn't one of them.

My Mk12 impression SPR is nearly finished, the last few externals have all arrived and put together. I'm just waiting on a new Gearbox shell from AK2M4 (much credit to Pete, good guy and great site) to put the gearbox back in after my other two shells both have selector plate issues.
I'm really tempted to put the GHK GBB conversion in it.
Partslist:
Madbull JP Rifles 18" barrel and Flash Hider
455mm 6.01 TBB with Maple Leaf Hop up rubber and H nub
Classic Army Hopup Unit
ZCI RAS
KA style Hand guards
Harris style Bi-Pod, great for looks but may swap it out for a gripod for practicality.
G&G GR16 reciever.
Magpul grip and P-Mag
Clasic Army full Stock
ACM Cantelever mount
ACM 3-9 x 40 EG Scope.
The gearbox is going to be a ZCI microswitch shell, built to DMR spec as per "the guide" but to 350fps and retaining full auto like a real Mk12. I'm going to run it standard for a while before deciding on an AB mosfet or a MERF 3.2 and how it will wire into the microswitch trigger.
Finally I can't decide on the paint job!! I was thinking of doing a full beat up "just back from the sandbox" style paintjob, however 1) i'm not that artistic and cant picture how i want it to look and 2) I t looks decent black, and would suit my civi style demilitarized loadout. I cant decide what to do .... opinions?

Any sight with BB in the name is not a professional shop !!!
I'm sorry but this is
complete and utter rubbish!Slightly misleading. [edited due to being a bit harsh]Just because a site is selling cheap garden plinking guns does not make them unprofessional.
Just because people don't do their research and get dazzled by the bling advertising, does not make a site unprofessional.
Just because people shop for airsoft in the wrong place does not make the site unprofessional.
The site itself is well organised and capable of processing what you order and dispatching in a timely manor; which in my book is the definition of a professional site.
The point to be made is that they are not Airsoft Skirmishing guns, they are cheap garden plinking guns. Two very different markets and aimed at two very different customers.
You wouldn't walk into a Hyundai dealer and ask for a Ferrari beating super car, then slander them as unprofessional because they don't sell it.
As a forum we are treading a very fine line of slander and libel towards these types of businesses. Its happened in the past and will happen again where a forum owner may be held responsible for the actions of its posters.
The answer to your original question is: don't buy from them because they only sell cheep bb guns not suitable for Airsoft.

The site itself is reasonably good and safe to order from, the problem is the majority of guns they sell are not deemed suitable for airsoft.

I don't deny that selling stolen MOD kit is illegal, I disagree with your insinuation that all mk7 helmets are stolen.
