    Or just multiply the TWG price by 0.831
    (Same meat different gravy)
     
    £133.76 x 0.831 = £108.75 is what the price SHOULD be ex 23% VAT.
     
    What they have done is knocked off 21% (just under)...
    £110.59 x 1.21 = £133.89 (just under 21%) knocked off,
    so TWG are likely skimming 2% admin fees...
     
    Still cheap but not quite what it should be

    WTF ???
     

     
    Now don't get me wrong, fancy high end shit is all well & good
    if you got money falling out of your arse & all that
    and some Youtuber's build hose machines almost as big as their fucking ego
     
    and yes ultra high parts are manufactured to higher tolerances blah blah blah
    and a CNC box owner will obviously say it is the best
    (fucking hope so for the money you paid for it)
     
    But there is also the classic newbie mistake of slinging in the most expensive parts
    without checking how they all fit & operate together
    (if you ain't checking = you ain't teching)
     
    They sling in stfu bits n bobs - the very best/most expensive bollox
    lonex gears or Seigtek for example...
    sling it all in and it don't work too well or pretty piss poor
     
    But REALLY...
    pic again...
     

     
    if you don't fucking know which fucking gear goes where
    and you need a diagram on the cunting expensive as fuck box to tell where expensive shit goes
    then you really should just send it all off to somebody else to build for you imho
     
    fuck me - looks like IKEA are making airsoft parts now

    her old man (Philip) has dropped some clangers over the years
    noncey Andrew & cuck Harry haven't helped either
    so she has a number of arseholes around her though
     
    thing about opinions being like arseholes....
    you should avoid rubbing them in people's faces
    well unless they are into all that - then yeah good money can be made I guess

    snip - see update/status for mega waffle...
     
    maybe get a set of 8mm bearings...
    just in case the SHS Spur is a bit tight/chunky
    then replace spur's top bushing with bearing
    (leave bushing under spur)
     
    that should give you a smidge more room to shim with & spin freely
    if the 13:1 spur especially is so chunky it proves a little too snug/tight
     
    I had to use a 8mm bearing, putting 13:1 ZCI/Big Dragon 13:1's in a 517 - modded for 13:1's
    (just one bearing on top of spur as had virtually no room or play on spur)
    left 5 x buhings as is, just needed a lower profile bearing on top of 13:1 spur
     
    you might be OK, but my gut tells me it will be a little more snug on 13:1's
    and if room inside is reduced - well you might find it a bit too snug/tight on bushings
     
    You do seem to be rather unfortunate with these toy guns
    are you related to this bloke by any chance...

    Sitting Duck got a reaction from Jedi_Master in Need Help! Can't Figure Out How to Contact Advertisers?   
    The person(s) to ask would be @Jedi_Master or @proffrink
     
    if you can't contact seller directly, then perhaps see if you could leave a message
    or ask a question in the advert itself & then seller might be able to reply/pm you
     
    The reason why restrictions are placed on newly created accounts
    is coz otherwise AF-UK gets a load of shit spam offering fake ID's, exam certificates
    Viagra etc... etc... etc...
    So I'm guessing the restriction on contacting members regarding ads
    is to avoid potential spammers & scammers bombarding sellers etc...
     
    yes it is a pain perhaps, but I've seem other forums for other subjects/interests
    impose a couple of hundred posts before you can even see classified ads section
     
    we still get the odd spammer/scammer sign up
    but thanks to some restrictions, the clean up & moderating is lessened
    (but must still be a pita for mods to deal with at all sorts of weird hours)
     
    make some posts, introduce yourself, talk about crap
    not just to bump your post count up, but also to demonstrate your genuine interest in peew peew
    to show to mods/members you are not just joining to buy toy guns from people
     
    get posting, but not spamming/shit posting (that's my job btw)
    contact/ask people but don't pester them - await a response
    & eventually AF-UK will recognise you without restrictions etc...

    Try telling this guy - This is the current state of play in the New Players section.  Over 100 posts in that section, nothing of note outside of it.

    If this isn't deliberate post-count bumping, I don't know what is.

    ill check back on that commenbt
    the saftey issue to rectify just now id reckon id need to go back to stock trigger which i will do tonight till i can figure out how to extend the latch by about 2mm to take into account the deeper cut out on the new trigger for now im bout to stuff my face with cake as bday time for my wee girl
     
    with this one yes till it breaks then ill replace and upgrade ;),future plans a m4 based dmr full metal the works lol buit wanna get a few skirmishes in with this and see what happens :)
    if needs be @Sitting Duck i can program semi to safe and auto to what ever i want to but going bk to stoock is what i will be doing so its done properly no point coming this far just to fluff it at the end

    all in and now back together working a charm

    commened at same time poretty much no modding was necaserry i did have to reshim and ad an extra shim to the bottom of the sector as it was touching the sensor
     
    only issue i have ran into is my mech safety with the new trigger the cut out where it latchs is deeper than the standard m4 one so the safety slips but tbh not to fussed on that one i can live with that lol

    SSG at that RPS on full teeth?
     
    Dayum son, that's impressive  but expect some fireworks soon inside the gearbox.
    I'd seriously look at shortening the barrel, it's not just a matter of volume but also the amount of air behind each bb, Luke @negative airsoft did a video using his own physics a while ago in which explains why super high ROF builds need short barrels.
     
    Or use a 7.4, 23 RPS is okay and you'll have better performance than 95% of the AEGs on the field while putting less stress on the mechanical parts
     
    Still, I would recommend knocking off a couple of teeth from the sector gear, so in case you are dead set on 11.1 memes you don't risk stripping everything.

    I'm baffled how you haven't smashed the piston/gearset up on 11.1v tbh
     
    do you need full volume ???
    if barrel is say 450mm then yeah
     
    if barrel is 400 - 1 tooth
    if barrel is 350 - 2~3 teeth
    if barrel is 300 - 3~4 teeth
     
    sorta thing - but really stick to 7.4v & twenties is plenty is the general reply

    I'm no expert by far but due to the high rof could the gears be re engaging before the piston has fully travelled to the piston head?
