Sp00n's doing the unthinkable ... G&G CM16 "upgrading"
Sitting Duck replied to sp00n's topic in AEG/GBBR Reviews
MASSIVE WARNING !!!! do NOT take the pi$$ and connect an 11.1v lipo up Seriously I think we lost some tension on the hi speed FH Probably coz it parked half cocked perhaps But the fps was lower than before I wasn't the top tech one but the standard one that had the 23:1 gears replaced with 18:1 SHS and a SHS high speed motor and fet in there.... getting 20 on 7.4, 25.5ish on 9.9v and WAS getting about 31.5 on 11.1v Well Saturday when testing out some ASG mid caps That might need bedding in We connected up a fresh 11.1v lipo - jeez she did seem very quicker than I remember but couldn't get chrono rps coz mags were struggling to feed as brand new........... BANG - Pre engagement and reckon piston shredded or initial pickup tooth snapped !!! Yes it had the aoe done but feel she was hitting 35+ with worn spring BOLLOX - ah well I needed to redo the cylinder port coz think it is set as a short raider 233mm barrel But a genuine gospel stern warning of trying to go too fast. My piston was 20gms approx so not ultra heavy Just want to warn peeps of the dangers of going too mad over 30rps and how close you could sail into the wind Swear on my kids life - tappet moves but all I got is no piston movement and lots of Zzzzzzzzzz instead Anyway - $hit happens I wasn't happy with it so will sort out the compression/fps/barrel cylinder stuff then consider a say a m115 or m125 and short stroke perhaps - dunno for now BUT seriously - all of you chaps be very careful how far you push ya guns in the search for mental rps if you are getting over 20+ on a 7.4v lipo then expect to see 30+ on 11.1v and depending on how well you did ya homework - do not be shocked if she don't like it -
Sp00n's doing the unthinkable ... G&G CM16 "upgrading"
Sitting Duck replied to sp00n's topic in AEG/GBBR Reviews
You sure the mag ain't the problem??? Would try a few mags with maybe a slightly better spring in magazine first before you rip box open again Had some mid caps that struggle at 27 28 Yet dytac hi-caps fed OK at 30+ Also my nooby box mag feeds damn well too at higher speeds and feeds for yonks as well And yup you could try the m110 as seals still seem a tiny bit out so unless you suss out the missing say 28fps (300 instead of approx 328) Then the m110 probably won't put you over at the moment But try other mags first and see how it goes before you rip her open yet again. If you do open her up to check/try stuff THEN maybe pop the m110 in there perhaps -
New player kent. What's best to start up guns/site
Sitting Duck replied to Strider69's topic in New Players & Arrivals
check the sticky's at top of this section - loads of really useful info try to avoid retailers with "BB" in their names - they sell mainly very low end stuff to kids & noobs fine for backyard plinking but not so good for taking to a skirmish site and going up against much better guns please have a look and read up on the sticky's - do not just rush out and buy the first gun you like the look of what gun did you use/hire M4 G36 AK or whatever and did you get on with it ok ??? give it plenty of thought before you buy anything and please ask too many people buy snipers and find it ain't for them or buy a pistol but hardly ever use it usually beginners should consider all options and perhaps get a decent starter rifle welcome to the forum -
Bloody hell - think he has got even bigger This guy probably uses dual G36's as pistols !!!! (actually he just chucks bb's at you and still breaks most masks) he stopped posting last summer me thinks a real shame coz he seemed like a good geezer from London Well lets be honest I'd rather have him as a friend or team mate F*ck having him as an enemy or opposition Just messing about - soz B D - wish you well, please don't hunt me down

Spoon did a review on ASG MK23 Socom came with a 16mm thread but he got an adapter for it now you could then get the adapter and instead of a 14mm ccw normal silencer fit a silencer/tracer unit on there perhaps ???

G&G top tech gen 3 owners - problems with MOSFETs?
Sitting Duck replied to dex's topic in Electric Guns
Well I think pro airsoft on on their way to winding down & jacking it all in Also gimme a gun and I'm sure I can break it as I have a gift for this stuff it is or was "supposed" to be a bad batch - probably trying get the actual mosfets too cheap there are a loads and loads of snide mosfets out there and in a aeg anything but a proper true genuine decent fet will just crap out real soon For that reason you source proper mosfets from proper places like RS or Farnell - never from ebay A number of proper mosfet suppliers confirm this - cheap fets die - well actually they get very hot very quickly If the gun has been wired up for a fet with decent wire - then it ain't that hard to simply replace a crapped out G&G one with a far better and reliable mosfet that start from about £10 or £20 with braking But you would of thought they wouldn't of tried to cut corners on Top Tech or at the very least test the bloody thing by spamming on semi for 30 secs or so to see how hot a batch of fets got fake or poor quality fets turn into mini George Foreman grilles when you you do this to them Also for what it is worth - you really don't need to put 11.1v lipo's through most guns You can get a quick trigger response/ROF without having to go mental & use 11.1v At present I have got to just under 25rps (24.8rps on 7.4v 25c fresh off charge on 18:1 and that is plenty Everybody thinks max volts and insane rof - but the faster she fires then there is a good chance she will crap out quicker (says the guy who has broke plenty by taking the mega pi$$ as per usual) Remember Airsofters - The faster your gun fires - the bigger your pen is (soz silly cartoon I saw yonks ago about fastest download speeds and how big your own ego/pen is) -
wasn't me pouring $hit down the barrel - lol silicone is da dogz nutz for slippery smoothness more slippery than an italian waiter sniffing round ya girlfriend on holiday it almost eliminates drag/friction - we use this $hit a lot at work BUT it must stay away from hop of course.... I have cleaned barrel with alchol wipe swab and used a dried up one to apply a small tiny amount of silicone on, squeezed out excess and just gone in about 90% barrel to be safe and avoid the risk of contaminating the rubber and yes it does make a difference - well a cleaner barrel would anyway over a dirty one but swear blind if you are careful silicone is a good stuff

a few have those mk23's http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/23771-asg-mk23-socom/ & http://www.taiwangun.com/en/mk23-heavy-weight-gas-pistol-stti?from=listing&campaign-id=19 http://www.taiwangun.com/en/mk23-magazine?from=related&campaign-id=6 above mags "seem" to be same part number - GGH-0302M for ASG (which could/should mean cheap TM MK23 mag too) only thing is son of a bitch hop adjustment according to spoon's review I'd be very tempted too but got my even cheaper cheapo 105's for now http://www.taiwangun.com/en/m92f-m9-vertical-heavy-weight-gas-pistol-stti (they go wrong - they go in the bin at that price but so far bar one moody co2 mag busting the GG mags are doing ok)

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Sitting Duck replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Don't give us ideas or PT247 will be bringing his very own airsoft cluster bombs along next time -
it is a little bigger than it should be but cyma aep's are very popular like I said cm123 takes the normal cm030 type mags like the cm030 & cm122 (cm121 & cm125 take different mags) most go with glock 030 or the 122 was a bit cheaper - but all the same in the end http://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/cyma-122-aep-electric-pistol-fully-and-semi-automatic.html?keyword=cyma%20pistol#.VSqAwo7p8i4 aep's only punch 200fps+ but work in all weather temps a number on here have them or owned one in the past most use gas as it provides more punch but fall back on aep's in much colder conditions or if their gas pistol springs a leak It should hold up very well, all guns can go wrong like anything in this world but in general it should serve you well
-
cyma 123 or 1911 is way oversized and @ £85 is overpriced as well have one and is too bloody big for my hands patrolbase do an ASG rebadged cyma 030 glock for £55 but will need to be painted/2-toned (glock is the most popular and cm122, 123 & 030 use 030 mags easy to get mags) dunno about A&K one but is out stock anyway 104 is a good cheap no frills or no blowback gas pistol holding aprox 21 or 22 per mag HFC Stti or SRC is the make/brand - it is all the same A serious consideration when buying a pistol - can you easily get extra mags and at what cost luckily the 104 yes you can and quite reasonable price have the 105 with both co2 & green gas mags - co2 is a bit too powerful to use at sites 104 & 105 take same green gas or co2 mags A lot of stuff can bought even cheaper abroad if you get a ukara/defense one day L85 - ICS or G&G perhaps but still £300 Army Armoument R85 is a cheaper knock off clone of G&G L85 but still not cheap G&G M4 or Cyma AK47 or JG G36c is the usual good starter guns most start out with
-
1 - BBGuns4Less or OnlyBBGuns - not JBBG or if you wanna go to the proper entry level then zero one, firesupport, land warrior, patrol base, airsoftworld.net 2 - you need to think what you want and your budget I'm not gonna say get this and then you decide you want something totally different on a bigger budget eg: cheap gas pistol or sniper - then you say you wanted a G&G CM M4 Carbine or Raider at Zero or LWA etc.... Which if you can afford it get a G&G to be honest
-
ok like for like as it is same as jbbg sa80 alas out of stock though: http://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/the-british-army-rifle-ha-202U.html?filter_name=sa80#.VSpJf47p8i4 All I was saying have a GOOD look around - JBBG are NOT the best place to buy plinkers from (or anything imho but I am gonna say that coz have had more grief from them than others) Do NOT think anything is 101% true - the 3 BB sites are not the most experienced "professional" airsoft retailers By that I mean they describe stuff as metal when it is just plastic - either they don't know their ar$e from elbow or they just bull$hit and tell you it is miles better than what it is.......... They sell cheap guns to younger noobish players who usually know very little and can't afford or justify buying the better stuff It is easy to think that those cheap guns are a bit better than they really are the way they are described and reviewed Garden plinking - yeah they are ok, still some are better than others not a massive amount on those will perform very well on a skirmish site though (you get what you pay for as the saying goes) Don't get me wrong - saw a few m901c's yesterday and the players seem to do ok of a sort and still had fun (probably would of done better with a better gun but still we all started somewhere & 901c is better than my b500a1) Electric pistol - cyma glock or TM - not cheap £70 aprox but better than a £40 AAA battery pistol but electric pistols shoot lower than gas pistols gas pistols need gas - ergh yeah suppose that is obvious, can use propane gas if you go nuts with it (but doubt if you will go that mad with it - well you won't warrant a propane bottle/adapter kit) don't or avoid using gas pistols in really cold weather as gas seals can fail more in cold weather (seals can and do go - but on cheap pistol you can throw away or buy another cheap mag) You need to think what you want - yeah all of them I know but see what you feel you want to start off with for now and see how you & your budget goes
-
you linked a gas pistol and one that does not have an adjustable hop up so its worse than the one I linked and stop looking at JBBG - that is the worst of the 3 they lie and their customer service is dire if you have a problem a spring sa80 if you wish: http://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/l85a2-sa80-british-carbine.html?filter_name=sa80#.VSpBPY7p8i4 bbguns4less are not as bad as JBBG - they do accept returns etc... (still a fair amount of crap on there but a bit better customer service) Chubby liar bastid at JBBG will try and worm out of any customer service
-
contacts or brushes in motor starting to fail ???? only a guess but as said dry it out - if not try another motor ?? process of elimination but "could" be motor's brushes worn perhaps - well maybe
-
Already been said but just confirming..... There is a massive difference between say a JBBG "BullDog" M4 for £80 and a proper G&G carbine @ £117 at say zero one yes you have buy your own battery/charger for G&G but you can imagine how good or rather not so good the supplied battery/chargers are on the really cheap guns or you could get a cheap spring/bolt sniper if you have a big long garden - say £60+ or a cheap Green Gas pistol from £30+ add gas to that (onlybbguns is better of the 3 BB sites - use RC10 for 10% off - no I don't work/get commission but they ain't as bad as JBBG imho) suppose it depends on what you are shooting and how far away the targets/garden you can get away with some stuff a little cheaply but there is a lot of crap on BB sites before you buy anything - work out exactly what you want and your budget then chuck a link up - wish I had done this coz bought loads of crap before I found this place cheapy sniper + pistol that ain't bad for money http://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/hg-104-m92f-beretta-hfc-hg-104-m92-gas-pistol.html?keyword=hfc%20104#.VSo9RY7p8i4 http://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/701-bison-bison-russian-bolt-action-airsoft-sniper-rifle-701blue.html?keyword=bison#.VSo9YI7p8i4 sniper - well ya arms will hurt cocking that mofo after a while but an idea you can plink cheaply with some half decent cheap stuff AEG - hmmm well get a G&G, Cyma, JG tbh - the cheaper aeg stuff don't perform too well especially if you try and take it to a site also firing a few shots in your garden is totally different to putting 3k bb's through a gun and abuse it gets running around falling over (a cheap plinky aeg might last ok for a while at home but is way short out on a skirmish site all day)
-
OK m8 you win game set n match you obviously like pulling apart my posts so much but you fully understand what I am saying plus though I am very fluent in pure bollocks My own personal opinion and it is just my opinion is that you are talking far more bollocks than me you can quote me on that that too as you love quoting so very very much
-
lol - i get told that everyday btw just buy a Blank RIF here or abroad then Oh no you can't so in effect you do meet the VCRA requirements and seek to break the law - which you appear to care very little for yup that don't sound suspicious then - my very bad yet you go on about about your rights if stopped by the police who are there to uphold the law you know - law: something you seem to be trying to avoid if this still makes very little sense then perhaps ask somebody else to explain this to you - very very slowly
-
ooops my bad soz forgot to state in there - if it still meets the newly updated 2015 guidelines and also forgot say about you also seeking to remove paint as well as a blank firing IF or RIF??? all perfectly normal and in no way would that sound even the slightest bit suspicious to a copper/judge
-
be it a RIF or a laptop or a non UK spec Blank firing RIF from France you seek to import one way or another Whatever - you win I'm done on this - you can continue you this on your own
-
I wasn't saying police would stop you because you got a bag like I said could be going fishing but.... If they stopped you - they would ask/want to know what is in there - well quite likely just being nosey and stating some rights would only raise their suspicions even more so they would investigate further Chances are they "may" not be too bothered about it if that person - even u18 had it in a bag and could tell them some sort of defense crap Being in a bag, being honest up front & open should imply that they were being responsible etc...... Just pointing this out and if any of us were stopped we may need to prove or provide some answers or defense As long as we all don't act like dicks then the chances of us being pulled up are very very slim But it would be very wise to be honest & if possible have some sort of defense ready to ease any further hassle/questioning Think that roughly covers the matter that is a wise thing to have "some" sort of defense and act a little responsibly if possible (in effect - don't be a dick) If you do get stopped then they could ask what you have in bag - out of interest or just being nosey and perhaps it would be wiser to answer any questions than quote some legislation or your rights but if you wanna quote away - then fine, just that may arouse their suspicion more and people can continue the conversation either at roadside for another 20 or 30 mins or down at the station... Being a smart ar$e to a copper is not perhaps a very wise thing if you have nothing to hide and wish to be on your way quickly
-
Sites don't give a crap about you painting ya gun: "its your gun do what ya feckin' like with it" my site told me (ain't them that painted or sold it to me) if a copper stops you - then they usually have "some" kind of reason, otherwise they would be saying hello to everybody So they in effect are at the very least shall we say "curious" or being feckin nosey Kid on bike with a long bag could be going fishing but if you are drawing attention to yourself then it goes without saying Chances are if you are carrying a big bag I'm sure most police officers would ask the obvious: "whats in the bag" question and if you was less than co-operative then they would have the "suspicion" or "reason" You can quote all the various rights and stuff but just saying how it works in the real world usually Again - don't be a dick and you will probably be fine - unless you are really unlucky to get stopped by some bastid who has had a very bad day already
-
UHM ergh me thinks that might not be completely true....... if the police pull you up me thinks they can and WILL find out what you have in your bag etc.... failing to co-operate with a request.... well that adds to suspicion and so will have reason to search or investigate further....... Ahhhhh - a RIF, now why would Jimmy have a RIF it was gifted by his uncle, ok can we confirm this - bit of hassle and time but they ain't gonna let it drop without establishing "some" facts about how a minor came into this (could even be a stolen RIF) Now can you tell me why you got this in your bag ???? Shooting you say, shooting what and where ????? Oh - that old chestnut eh ? says the copper and seeks more clarification about a bit of private land More checks n stuff and like I said depending on proof/defense I do not know the full final outcome coz I ain't no lawyer But the police can easily check & search any of us especially in the recent alerts and anything but co-operation will only arouse suspicion and then they can and WILL search/request you to acompany them Police ain't perfect but they are there to do a job and should be investigating an u18 carrying around a IF or RIF in my book (heck already said if I got pulled over I'd fully understand them giving me 20 questions about my stuff)
-
Illegal but tbh who will know or care unless you are a dick A RIF should be aprox 51% - more than half an easy to distinguish colour You should at least start to skirmish a bit which would give you "some" defense By law if your are not ukara'd or defense then you need a IF now you could be "gifted" a RIF as we all know but that does not mean it still 101% ok for a minor to have that...... before anybody jumps in - consider this..... Jimmy is 15yrs old and has been "gifted" a RIF from his brother/father/uncle - all above board perhaps... Now Jimmy decides one day to go up to his mates private farm and do a bit of target shooting He does have the common sense to transport the RIF hidden in a proper gun/airsoft bag rather than an Aldi carrier bag BUT is stopped on his mountain bike by the local police...... Now Jimmy just wtf are you gonna say/prove you ain't some dick looking to shoot anything in their sights say at local park etc..... Why have you got a gun - a realistic imitation firearm when you are under 18, and not known to any airsoft site ???? I'm not a lawyer but with the above example as you might travel to your mates farm I can't just say it will be OK coz by the above example and from legal standpoint it is NOT ok Most of this is down to YOUR DEFENSE or reason for you to have any airsoft weapon if under 18 Yes many players may not be 18+ but they are players or members of a club so they kind have a reason Or some sort of defense to present and prove if challenged Yes you can get away with it - but only if you are not caught - this does not mean it is legal - 2 different things altogether Just because I am over 18 & ukara'd still don't mean much if I conduct myself like some bell end tw*t. even if I have stuff all bagged up I would fully expect to be pulled over and seriously questioned and have to prove I have reasonable reason to have a RIF in my car - this must arise also when people use public transport etc..... For this reason if you get a tug even if being mature and responsible - you should have "some" sort of defense this could enable you to keep out of trouble and probably not have your aeg confiscated or even destroyed (let alone in worst case scenario get dragged down the station faces more investigation/charge etc...) soz but though most won't care too much there is a few hard facts you need to be aware of and if you was legally allowed to own a RIF then you wouldn't be asking this Soz if this isn't the reply you seek but you need to be aware it ISN'T just ok to paint a gun and go shooting in fields with no possible comeback
