To be honest bud you’ve more chance of find 3kgs of rocking horse shit for sale than one of those .😢

Not gone lie but he sounds like some 18 year old wanna be airsoft youtuber type.

from one of the vids he posted on the technical issues he was having he sounded older, not that age is a guarantee of maturity.....

try inserting your mags slowly and watching the mag catch, does it actually move? Are you sure it's actually been locked into place? If not or not fully, check inside the mag well, it's likely something is in there (Wedged bb etc) that is prevent the mag going all the way in.  When I had this issue it was down to mags not actually catching.

Also if you have changed the mag release to an ambi one, are you sure you aren't just activating it accidently while moving around. you go to use it and the movement of the rif encourages the mag to fall out. 

Can’t say I’ve had this problem with mine, have got 6 EPM’s and they’ve always worked without issue!

@EmergencychimpsOh trust me mags lock most of  the time but sometimes i noticed the randomly fall out without me even pressing mag release button. One thing I've noticed is that pts epm mags have a lot of movement side to side inside magwell once they are inserted in and locked in with mag catch. So what I'm thinking is I might maybe get some velcro and stick it in on one of the sides inside magwell to reduce the wobble. Maybe that's why the mags fall out randomly while shooting.

And funny thing is standard tm ngrs mags work perfectly never fall or and have minimal wiggle(side to side) but epm's have a lot more.

@Rogerborgany wiring that was left in the gun was basically removed. Those VFC mosfets are known to burn out like this one did so i removed all of the wiring and replaced broken trigger micro switch with new one and soldered in Perun ab++ which works much better. Also that hop unit wiring and the small spring inside hop unit together with that small chip were removed. I pretty much fixed all known feeding, fps or reliabity issues with the aeg and it works much better then i expected.

I wonder why VFC spacked it up so badly in the first place?

It's a gun that we all wanted to love, but it feels like they did everything they could to overcomplicate it to the point where failure was inevitable.

@Rogerborgthey love to overdo things as always. For example the main board that trigger micro switch, and hop unit bb detect feature connects to is attached by 1 screw to the gearbox shell, that 1 screw is all that gives any kind of rigidity to the board and honestly its a bad design as i barely bent mine and it broke off. They must of had few or tens of mp7's pass qc test so they continued on manufacturing but somewhere along the line something went wrong. At least they hop design actually lifts bb's up to max of  45+ metres from what i tested with such a short barrel. But I might replace it in a future together with bucking and nub. But from all the work I've done to the mp7 it's now reliable and can easily use 11.1v lipo with programmable mosfet which comes in handy, since I mainly use semi and 2rd burst on my aeg's.

@Lozartalready seen that and its longer then sa58 barrel is, so it wont work. I contacted that shop in the past asking for details and found out its much longer then i could fit

@Lozartwish i could find m4 stock adapter for it there is one from Czech republic but doesn't ship to uk sadly.

I am looking into getting SA58/JG 3000 and I cannot find one either used or new anywhere in UK in stock. I asked on forums, Discord groups, etc. So this is why I am asking about gunfire as they have it in stock and have replied to my email saying they ship to UK but I just wonder how much will Custom's charge me for importing it.

Generally add in 20% and that will cover you. (plus the parcel force bumming fee)

@matas17 generally you pay VAT 20% plus import duty which is 3-5% depending on what customs classify the item as, some say toy, some sporting goods.  You pay tax and duty on the shipping fee as well.  Then you also pay a courier handling charge which is anything from £8 to £15.

Funny you should say that I've recently fallen out of love with my TM recoils as well (bar my 74su) and had a hard-on for old school AK’s . In the past 8/9mths ? I’ve bought 4 and fitted as much real wood and genuine AK parts to all of them as I can find .

@Druid799How is it out of a box, I wonder what the internals are and if for example pistol is plastic and doesn't have steel teeth, etc. Also how is trigger response, fire rate and the range on it?

To be honest nothing jumps out from memory (sold it last yr)as being good or bad about it . Just remember it being bloody good fun ! 😁

Fire Support & Kingdom of Airsoft have had the Maple Airsoft springs in the past. Perhaps email them and ask if they are getting a restock anytime soon? 

Top half not awful, bottom half no chance.

@SteveoceeI wonder if feeding nozzle and blowback housing are compatible and slide catch

@matas17 shoudl be as slides between the 2 are interchangable.
