mag "might be ok" - some g36's like suppose all guns can work great/crap with certain mags or certain mags work in some guns but $hite in others look at a d-boys MID CAP review: http://gunfire.pl/product-eng-1152194528-Mid-Cap-magazine-for-G36-type-replicas.html mid cap seems ok in JG G36 on there....... you gone for longer G36, but remember to state clearly for them to DOWNGRADE spring (they have been know to forget/miss out so state it very clearly) your order - first order may sit for a while as they will run some checks n stuff in case of paypal or chargebacks GET YOUR ARSE TOGETHER THOUGH Today is I think last day of 10yr celebration - in a nutshell it means 150 Euro for free shipping - usually 300 Euro free ship plus spend 200 Euro n get a back packy fall apart bag for 1 euro cent - robbing bastids said it was free - I want my 1c refund drop battery ffs - it comes with a $hit nimah n even $hittier charger - dump them get a good lipo battery n charger - lucky coz you can use "block" type batteries which in lipo terms means cheaper RC block lipo's than airsoft nunchuck lipo's but move your arse for free shipping n bag stuff mag "should" be worth a gamble - but drop the battery for sure (if spending money on batteries n stuff just go lipo) maybe grab a bag of bb's than a poxy nimah battery usually ya local site sells half decent bb's - but maybe grab a bag of 0.20's from TWG to get ya going for now

I'm that sad this stuff is my new life - everything else is fitting around me seriously - as the world is 25hrs & 8 days a week many of us are finding jobs are not always the 9-5 anymore I've worked nights for 20 -25yrs and the "extra" for unsociable hours has fallen over the last 10yrs overtime & the Sunday "double bubble" is history in many places as companies try to remain competitive (or shaft the workers - depends which way you look at it) Double Day shifts - have now given in to Continental Shifts - that is often brought in and sold to unsuspecting workforce only later they realise they are working every other Saturday for flat rate & most never realised the full implications Still - good luck to all of ya looking for work - kudos to the grafters out there whatever profession you get into (unless you are corporate banker & a complete w@nker)

also means she doesn't have to dip into her "shoes & bags & clothes & lippy" fund it ain't female logic - it's wise wifey common sense

ok here is some info I dug up that might indicate it needs to be a LONG AK nozzle but don't quote me or sue me if I'm wrong..... http://gunfire.pl/product-eng-1152200426-Nozzle-for-the-AK-type-replicas-long.html in comments bit 2 x reviewers wrote: Rate: Author: Ronalds, Riga I bought this nozzle because I read in comments that it fits E&L AK and I can only confirm, that it fits perfectly. Definite by if you have E&L AK. Rate: Author: Kenneth, Oosterzele Good nozzle for good price. Slightly longer than standard AK nozzle. Perfect for E&L replica's. so if that stuff is correct check your nozzle is 20.7 and not 19.6mm - yeah I know it is gonna be tricky if you ain't got digital caliper but at least you might know what type of nozzle "should" be in there.... yup - couple of sites say longer AK nozzle 20.7mm in E&L's and shs might be one to try n tracck down if needed: http://www.clandestineairsoft.com/nozzles-c-1_6_14/shs-aluminum-ak47-oring-nozzle-long-2074mm-p-21.html but you still need to check to operation & correct alignment of hop to box/nozzle etc... jeez I gotta grab some sleep, hope somebody else is up soon to help ya but I gotta get some shut eye sir

check the hop unit is correctly fitted into gearbox nozzle opening the classic paper test would show same results - air pi$$ing out of magwell which should not be happening if nozzle seals against bucking - the lips of the hop up = airtight and flows down barrel not magwell there are different nozzles for all different guns - 2 for AK's short - 19.6mm long - 21.7mm but I doubt if wrong nozzle fitted atm but more info about nozzles n lengths here: http://www.clandestineairsoft.com/nozzles-c-1_6_14/ what you need to do is check all the factors like I said see if tappet plate is moving freely back n forth - no snagging (remove spring from tappet btw and slide tappet back n forth) with box open and tappet+ nozzle fully forward but up hop to half of open box & see if you can "feel" nozzle touching & sealing against bucking see if hop unit is sealing correctly against completed gearbox like I mentioned you need to check all bits involved for any wear or snagging/bad operation did gun ever fire bb's at all - is bad seal something new or was it like this when you bought it ??? sounds like previous owner didn't have a clue - might have broke or fitted old nozzle with a new incorrect one that isn't sealing but you must have a very pi$$ poor seal or big airleak if most air is coming out of magwell instead of barrel if it was shagged cylinder head very little air would be emerging from nozzle but should pass down barrel so something is up with that box/nozzle to hop area btw you can't just shove in a long nozzle where a short nozzle should of been as you will very likely get feeding issues (improved seal but the correct length nozzle is a must - it needs to be just right to allow bb's to feed and also just enough to seal properly) to me at first or second glance head looks ok and nozzle looks undamaged too dunno about the operation of nozzle to hop - you need to investigate this like I said

was typing the bits below but you replied with a results test..... hmmm - firing out of gearbox/nozzle but jack $hit coming out of barrel ???? ok see if you can get gearbox to cycle with nozzle as far forward as possible place hop/barrel against gearbox/nozzle and blow down barrel it should of sealed if piston/nozzle seal is good check hop bucking - could be damaged or torn - just do a visual check than strip it down atm other issues is tappet not moving fully forward or incorrect nozzle fitted as there are 2 types of AK nozzle long n short but tbh I doubt it as it looks like a stock type of nozzle but who knows what the previous owner did the nozzle/tappet plate should move nicely forward n backwards - enough to allow bb to enter and also forward enough to seal against bucking in hop I would check hop unit is seated correctly and bolted together to the main receiver - all aligned correctly loss of compression or fps occurs either in gearbox - piston, cylinder head & nozzle or a poor seal from nozzle to hop unit (well the bucking can leak around barrel plus torn/worn/damaged bucking) often a common bad seal occurs from a poor nozzle to bucking seal is one of the likely issues and can be from worn/damaged/snagging tappet, worn nozzle or wrong nozzle length etc...... atm is seems pi$$ poor seal from nozzle to hop bucking maybe ???? previous essay I was composing about cylinder/piston seals but don't worry too much atm coz your hop ain't getting much air pushing through it atm so check hop to box and if nozzle touches the bucking...... - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Yup you got single o-ring on it.... now pop that in cylinder, probably won't seal that great but wtf.... pop in piston into cylinder - leave nozzle off finger over cylinder head and check compression..... probably a bit crap but see how it compresses best options are new double o-ring cylinder head & perhaps new nozzle but if time is short, parts availability limited you can try the cheapo options..... white ptfe tape - etc... wrapped around cylinder head n jam it in with a bit of grease to help piston o-ring can be stretched - some say lighter but think the safer way is: place piston o-ring around cylinder and drop this in a small dish of boiling water leave to cool, empty & pout in boiling water again - do this about 3 times to help stretch o-ring (using lighter can be a bit more risky) realistically - you should replace stuff with better/new bits n bobs but worth a go....

first pic - does that cylinder head have an o-ring on it in that groove ???? hard to make out but at first glance that should have an o-ring on there to improve seal add a load of ptfe or plumbing tape etc.... otherwise you'd be losing loads of compression and hence seem like a cracked cylinder head ??? can't be sure with head being jet black - looks 50% missing o-ring to me did it nigh on fall out of the cylinder ??? when good piston o-ring seal & cylinder head it only compresses a tiny amount and then feels like solid almost like water is in there or some other liquid rather than air that is difference between a good air seal & a great air seal actually starting to see I think the o-ring - but damn its not very pronounced being jet black is making it hard to see o-ring let alone a cracked head real test is how good it all seals up when compressing the piston in cylinder with head fitted

I've given mine to my better playing son I'm so not worthy of it as I shoot like a blind squealing little girl trapped in an ol' farts body hence I still use the starter guns too.... If I was using a higher end gun I really would have no excuse why I can't hit anything always blame the gun/tools etc..... nah - I friggin' crap at this but wtf I still enjoy it being cannon fodder for pro's ( and rental noobs - jjjeeeeeez I suck)

Gun, bb's, battery, eyepro & a friendly chilled not too stressed out attitude is all ya need rest is optional

new number as it is related to your usual/regular site your old ukara started differently so if ya done ya 3 visits n stuff just ask them to update or issue you with new number no biggy I'm sure loads n loads of peeps have done this over time or when old sites closed etc.... if you are buying something from a UK retailer - you don't HAVE to have ukara details the regged ukara site can just vouch for ya - how I bought my first RIF from ProAirsoft but in the end my site got its ukara finger out and entered me on database a bit later (guy that dealt with admin crap just returned from hols but eventually sorted it all out)

poor bastid - you will end up probably buying more than "just one more gun dear" alas you sound a little like moi - end up keeping most of your stuff (or crap as the other half calls it) thus to attain true hapiness is to say - ahh wtf lets get another to help make my final decision as to which gun I really like..... welcome to the saddo toy gun club

I have a D68 in bits - uhmm no surprise there you may say (no I have stripped it for fitting a proper v3 box like the AK12 but not finished putting box together for it) but a high rof or dsg or hpa b500a1 would be absolute epic to wipe a smug grin off somebody's face/mask I got too much crap n bits around but one day - one day that will have to be done for ultra $hits n giggles

Bloody hell...... Toy Gun holding...... Sharing BB love...... Yoda StormTroopers & Star Wars stuff...... Look guys - I'm with ya on all of this but if our other halves or anybody else from the real world reads this I'm starting to realise how really f*cking sad we all are !!!!!! yup fine by me - carry on chaps

oooouch bit harsh - ya AGGA cow (seriously considering a B500A1 hpa project now to bring to Mall)

it is worth getting ya hands on a gun - ooh having a touchy feely fondle ahem getting carried away there - hold a gun, point n aim, get to use it if possible wise words from Okto eight..... I was kinda guessing you had maybe hired a G36 to aquire ukara so got used to 'em or liked 'em but many think they want this n that but reality is many find out later their must have gun is not for them (very true with bolt snipers - often many return to regular aeg's) M4's - G&G's are a safe bet but they are the Fords of airsoft - still very easy to just grab n use AK's - Cyma's are very good makes, very popular but me personally find the M4 fire selector easier to use G36 - JG and some others - probably the usual hire gun, good little all rounder and ambi selector for lefty/right handed the above 3 have popular 300-500rnd, heck even 1,000 to 2,500 nearly 5,000 rnd mags (getting silly now) but they have higher capacity mags and usually easy/cheap to buy/borrow a mag MP5's - ambi fire selector - compact mp5k's to the more longer types, slightly lower capacity mags but very popular gun ahh crap - not gonna list all but you decide which gun floats your boat most use either a v2 or v3 gearbox and nothing too major to maintain/service/repair if you choose a more bespoke type of gun or alternative one like bullpup or m14 or a unique model then spares n stuff may be a little trickier to source easily - just pointing this out The import thing is a good option to consider if you feel that at some point you can maintain your own gun(s) Guns do wear over time - depends on quality, usage and a bit of luck - unless you just mount them on a wall for show Most peeps get a decent starter gun - just like ya first car and work upwards maybe over time. Depends on the person themselves - yes you can buy a £300 - £500 gun or an average £150 decent starter gun (The importing of Cyma/JG's at about £100 equates to a usual £150 if bought in UK as Poland heavily discount those from bulk buying) If you buy a G&G M4 or some other make like higher/mid range Krytac's then yes deffo buy from a UK retailer and have some warranty or customer service to fall back on if you are not too techy minded plus helps out local or UK retailers Alas only you can decide what you think you would like as your first gun plus like many things - no sooner you obtain your perfect gun - you see another that catches your eye - damn it Thus it can be a very addictive & slippery slope you have chosen to take up Actually - if you keep your impulsive kid in a candy store cravings under control, it ain't that bad tbh choose wisely and research a bit and you will be fine End of the day - they are just little toy guns that roughly do the same friggin' job some are better than others - some you may like and others you won't but as long as you don't buy ya toy guns from " BB " sites you will be fine (£100 guns from TWG & GF are much much better than £100 "BB" gun sites in UK)

Well as the OP is the head of AGGA...... suppose - "anything that doesn't have G&G or C M on it" I did get a bit of interest in the black AK12 chock & myself did (hope you are ok sir if you are still about m8) until I told them about it and they soon lost interest - lol, ahhhh f*ck 'em I liked it ahh but it ain't a RIF stock - it is clear/2-tone well yeah in USA a WELL AK12 is black (orange flash hider) so we just gave it that Americano look

To me it is like sombody asking for a spare fag/cigarette (don't smoke kids - it f*cks you up, but stupid smokers may get the idea of what I mean) yeah sure, but don't take the pi$$ or try to take me for a call you next tuesday.... Really don't bother me - ammo - batteries - even spare aeg but try n take me for a fool and keep poncing and I'll turn back into the miserable bastid I really am oh and as for - can you hold my gun.... f*ck off, prop it up against a tree or something if ya wanna squeeze ya lemon - I got my own crappy gun to hold but I wanna climb a tree.... ohhh leave off ffs - I gave up scrumping for apples/conkers decades ago - lets just shoot bb's I'll try to help out a bit but jeez even I got a limit - well except when posting bollox on here

new G&G - zero one for free 2-tone Raider, CM18, BOT, SR-? range, but last 2 are getting above £150 possible 30th editions - GC16 30th, not fully railed but does have 3 mini rails to mount on do NOT consider buying from a site with BB in its name Zero One, AirsoftWorld, Airsoft Zone, Land Warrior Airsoft (LWA) plus others ICS - hmm maybe but railed ICS starter gun range is not as extensive as G&G's cost effective range could buy s/hand but a little more risky getting a good gun than a pile of junk needing TLC hence we usually recomend a new G&G for a bit of piece of mind investment please read: http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/17294-ians-guide-to-noobism-on-a-tight-budget/ and other guides for loads of great important info to help get you started

pre soldered ones for £9 so just over a tenner posted and no soldering iron needed perhaps http://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/trigger-switches/zci-trigger-switch-v2-front http://www.ak2m4.co.uk/zci-trigger-switch-v2-rear now depending on where ya battery is fitted - me "thinks" you are looking at maybe front wired perhaps ?? worth getting one, it could be a sticky or tight switch contacts not releasing but for a tenner get one and if needed just replace with better wiring all supplied ready to go £9 - bargain !!!!

Phew - thought you was either suffering a rare tropical disease or still pi$$ed from the night before joking aside - they are quite good guns in the £150 price range

LOL - think most of us "older kiddies" are doing that.... flogging off our old saddo hobbies n crap for this newer saddo hobby we are all saddo hoarding bastids - but the girls are fine with all their shoe/bag/clothes collections (that is totally different - don't try to waste your breath on trying to argue that)

Well if you take him shooting - that is gonna save you about £20 to £25 if he has to hire one unless he has his own already.... but perfectly legal for YOU to GIFT him a Realistic Immitation Firearm could come in handy anyway as spare - uhm they can sometimes let you down - even some expensive ones Good starter guns are: JG - make very good G36's Cyma - make very good AK's G&G - make mofo M4's G&G's can't really be bought cheaper overseas or from poland/EU other makes can be bought much cheaper from TaiwanGun & Gunfire in Poland you got ukara so you sorted to enter details in box read up on Ians noobism guide - you will find loads of good info in there http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/17294-ians-guide-to-noobism-on-a-tight-budget/ you won't go wrong with any of those 3 types/makes but many guns from TWG or GF in poland come in hot so make sure you tell them to downgrade - FREE and yup kiss your wallet goodbye oh and the JG 608 - is £80 but would be about £150 if bought in UK

mp5k - cyma over my crappy Galaxy one or Fire Hawk (not HC05), stubby or crane stock perhaps over stock tube (yeah not a smg but wtf its small & easy mags) or compact 74 with folding stock perhaps........ grab a pistol & BFG -reckon that will do most peeps (shotgun maybe as backup weapon for the loadout whores out there)

2 of these - 1 for you & 1 for ya step son http://www.taiwangun.com/en/electric-air-soft-guns/608-jg?from=listing&campaign-id=19 ask them to downgrade it to 330~350 as they are a tad hot (free downgrade) thats about 2 x £80 - £160, should leave you some dosh for mags n stuff so fill ya boots

you have to remove bottom of pistol grip carefully unplug motor, note which wire - should have red going to a red spot on motor remove motor tighten up the pistol grip screws replace motor & affix wires replace bottom of pistol grip - motor plate (should be a disc maybe that sits between motor & plate) tighten & should be ok once again as the the bit in pic 1 & pic 3 - might be a AR latch release rest of it all looks normal to me
