    Thanks for heads up, I was planning on leaving it uncocked and unloaded anyway due to small hands in the house (as funny as it would be to teach my son to breech and clear the house, I don't think the Mrs would think the same)

    Just don't store it primed & ready for use, left in ya bag after game day
    (yeah if you can remember those days)
     
    One of mine was left primed for months (totally forgot about it)
    when I went to use it, it had stuck & failed to to go BOOOOM after 5~7 secs
    poured/squirted loads of WD40 & silicone in it but never worked 101% after it got stuck
     
    so avoid being forgetful & leaving it primed in ya bag ready to use
     
    They do a nice impact one "Dominator" that works on soft-ish ground better than O-Shi-Boom
    but more bulky than O-Shi-Boom & others
    Adapters for different blanks can be bought - but watch for revised adapters for older Dynatex
    (I bought wrong ones - in the end made up a sleeve to use Cheddites .209 in my 9mm BFG)
     
    soz for waffle - just avoid leaving it primed is the real message

    Sitting Duck got a reaction from Tackle in Electric M4 Airsoft Gun - Worth Selling?   
    I'm going to take a WILD stabby guess it is a SRC...
     
     
     
    likely a 2 piece hop unit and possibly plastic receiver with loops...
     

     

     
    qwirky old old school stuff - not bad starter for year 2010
    but £70~£100 Cyma M4's now piss all over it
     
    Carbine - front wired, 2 piece hop, oldie loop receiver
    not worth a great deal - even if fully functional
     
    Dust cover looks lop-sided in pic, cosmetic, drop down dust cover on mid range sportsline SRC's
    (on "some" ultra cheap Dragon SRC's, they were sprung/pull down like G&G CM Carbine/Raiders
    & on "some" Dragon's they had a plastic gearbox box (gen 1 perhaps)
    But then "some" other Dragon's had drop down dust cover & metal v2 (gen 2 I guess) gearbox
     
    SRC really mix up their stuff, though I expect yours is not a Dragon cheapy SRC
    BUT likely to be a gen 2 metal v2 box with SRC green plastic 6mm bushings perhaps
    and perhaps a plastic loop receiver
    (think the so called Gen 3's were metal receiver & better gearbox with metal bushing/bearings)
     
    Some vids if you are thinking of messing with a SRC...
     
    6mm green bushing box (rear wired - yours is front wired)
     
     
     
    here is what your gun "might" be & teardown of it
    loopy receiver & maybe metal bearing/bushings not plastic bushings
    (still likely alloy dairylea sector gear though)
     
     
    YES - it is advisable to remove motor grip completely
    before seperating "looped" receiver & sliding apart including sliding box out too
    (saves them loops snapping off, if you try to open like ICS split gearbox M4)
    might be metal one piece hop unit, but SRC & JG kept ye olde 2 piece hop for a while
    in some of their cheap~mid range guns
    (it really is a bit of lottery what spec some SRC's are - they are a mixed bag around 2015)
     
    it could be a G&G but I'm leaning towards most likely a plastic SRC in that puke green
    likely bought from a place with " BB " in its name
    (coz I bought one (or two) from there but in black/orange in 2014)
     
     
     
    the bloke is a legend - at selling shit plinkers to noobs like moi
     
    missing fire selector - well there isn't one on the side you shown
    it is not ambi fire selector, only on one side as first vid shows like most M4's
     
    If you can find a battery/power source & test it
    maybe consider tearing it apart if you wish
    or shove it up for say £30 or something like somebody suggested as a boneyard 2-tone
     
    SRC - Shiny Rainbow Company (Taiwan) weren't bad back in the day
    but have lost ground as cheap Cyma's have improved their cheap as chips starter guns
     
    SRC - Dragon - BullDog M4's are basically same/similar SRC's of one description
    they still do some better mid range models but generally SRC's are not that popular now
    (£100~£150 can get you a pretty decent starter these days)
     
    in its day it was a pretty decent starter - but even running
    I don't see it being worth much more than £50 s/hand
     
    best of luck

    I don’t know what you mean there 👀😁

    Seeing as your goal in this venture was to learn to tech, you kinda went backwards.
     
    First off use the standard tappet plate, nozzle, hop unit and bucking, this eliminates MANY variables.

    Below 230mm barrel length you’re going to want to be at least one spring power rating higher than the spring is advertised as.
     
    Next up as mentioned, you’re losing 15 FPS per SS tooth too.
     
    Personally I haven’t used that motor, and you haven’t said what battery your on - but you don’t normally need to short stroke with a ‘torque’ motor on 12:1 ratio.
     
    You say compression is excellent, is that to say the piston stops dead and rock hard a gnat’s cock past the cylinder port?

    Also as @Sitting Duck said, always check the piston is free when changing from standard, and “maths, suggestions & bollocks aside, you need to go back and check EVERYTHING very very closely”

    Sitting Duck reacted to Skara in 12:1 Short Stroke Issues   
    I also found Guarder springs to be rather soft for what they're rated at, a SP100 gave me barely 1J on the striker and a SP90 got my old ARP (180mm inner) to barely 0.65/0.7J.
    Btw, SP and M ratings are done with different bb weights, M springs are supposed to give you the number (in m/s) on 0.20g bbs, so a M100 means 100 m/s on 0.2s, whereas the SP springs are measured with 0.25s, again a SP100 would give you 100 m/s on 0.25g (around 112 m/s on 0.20s). That's the theory anyway.
    Meanwhile a SHS M90 spring in the striker gave me 1.2J easy (300mm inner and a cylinder volume not far from a full v2 one), the same spring also gave me 110 m/s on 0.2s in my specna 933 (3/4 cylinder, 260mm inner).
     
    Most likely a combination of the two.
     
    Also you mentioned that utter POS ProShit hop unit, did you keep the same unit throughout the test? Or did you go and swap it at some point?
    IKR, the FCU is the main selling point of the whole line  fucking TM recoil syndrome right there

    Social Media like FaceBook etc... have purged so much stuff
    that they have ran out of things to complain about
     
    So much so, with each stage of purging they have less & less to be fully triggered about,
    so they have only the very very very slightly off-subject thinkers outside of the box left
     
    Suffice to say, just starting to question the FB belief or narrative has resulted in restrictions
    so much so it is just one big echo chamber & even then the people within that chamber
    are starting to question at times, where has those hateful opposition users gone ???
    (not hateful at all, just with a different opinion to some others that you perceive as hate
    when in reality, the real vitriol is coming from their side towards others in fact)
     

     
    Nowadays - you don't even get the rows as the echo chamber grew & grew from the purges
     
    No longer on FB for nearly 2 years, as they demanded I upload photo, more info, drivers license

    I do believe for many it wasn’t that he was going to open up the country etc etc , it was the way he takes no responsibility for anything he’s done or said in the past or the present that’s turned so many people against him . His apparent love of a lot of terrorist groups is well documented no one can deny it , his blatant anti-Semitic behavior again well documented and he’s completely refuses to take ownership of any of it that’s what so many hated about him. Boris is a manipulative man who plays the buffoon and he knows exactly what he’s doing BUT he will accept when he’s f*cked up , he will try and squirm out of it , but he does also admit it .
    dont hide your political views , just accept others will disagree and don’t lower your self to the level of so many these days who go straight to insults as a retort to a difference of opinion instead of debate . 
    No sorry mate totally wrong there , Corbyn did support the IRA and even taking out the press embellishments it’s still very well documented . The big difference between the likes of the Kennedy’s or Trump supporting them and corbyn supporting them is the IRA wasn’t committing terrorist acts against America , They where against the uk and Corbyn was a member of parliament , THATS the big difference there .
    As to Chamberlin and Hitler , again big difference Hitler was a first world national leader not some tinpot terrorist from some shithole 3rd world desert bowl or a terrorist who’s actively attacking the nation your supposed to be politically representing ?
