OK great so I can pay customs using my card awesome, can I pay in cash to the driver himself? If you had to pick one out of these who would you pick: UPS v EMS v DHL v FedEx

UPS v EMS v Own Courier What do you think is the best option, heard a lot of good and bad things from both sides, for deliveries in UK I tend to go UPS/DPD or most big names as they tend to be very reliable, haven't heard of EMS before but looking by it, it seems very reputable etc etc. It's for a large shipment of about $150 of airsoft parts from WGC. EMS costs $33 and UPS Saver is $38. Not really much difference so want to know who I should go for and who would be fastest. Any experience using them to deliver airsoft parts? Also should I lower the invoice price to around 70-80% and have any of you guys ever been put through customs for $150< airsoft parts? Just want to add do many people go for the custom delivery option on WGC? Do you find it cheaper/better and how do you find out dimensions / size of your order anyway?

Bought an abbey grease set recently for dead cheap (only £12!) and want to confirm some things with the lovely folks of AF-UK: The "Abbey Gun Grease LT2" goes on the gears and just the gears (what happens if some accidently gets in the top end near the rails etc and touches the piston, anything I should worry about, as the main gear that meshes with the piston will get some on the piston rack? The "Abbey Silicone Gun Oil 35" goes down the barrel and I use the cleaning rod with it and drop some oil on a bit off tissue then remove and re-clean the oil off with clean tissue The "Abbey Silicone Grease" goes on the piston rails (on the gearbox), the piston itself and the piston head around the orings and the orings of the cylinder head + inside the air-seal nozzle. Thanks guys please just confirm the above for me

Well I'm not upgrading because its fun but because I want to hit a 50m (is this target a realistic one) target so figure gotta hit BBs harder (so i can use heavier bbs). But you make a good case hahah. But anwyay could you point out a link to a decent airsoft retailer. I want a better pistol grip, nicer stock (than my crane, should also fit batteries), motor, lipos anyway even if not upgrading internally.

I'm not replacing all of them at once. Just slowly over time really... besides my KA M4 V2 Gearbox is excellent. Have no problems with it and no signs of wear after a year so doubt I'll see much after another.. esp with fine tuning parts etc. Isn't this what people do anyways on their gun builds? Just slowly upgrade their parts after testing each one works etc

I'm looking for lots of upgrade parts, good quality brands (Lonex, SHS etc) to upgrade on my version 2 king arms m4 gearbox. What I currently need: ZCI High Torque/SHS High Torque Motor Sorbo Pads Lonex M130/SP130 Lonex Air Nozzle Trigger Replacement Unit (SHS Trigger contacts preferred) Steel Trigger (Lonex?) Lonex POM Piston Head Lonex Blue Piston 10 Steel Teeth Lonex Steel Trigger Silicone Abbey Gun Oil LT2 Abbey Gun Grease Aiming for High FPS, High Accuracy and Incredible Reliability This is just all the gear I need, most of which I'll be purchasing new at retailers Who are good retailers that ship fast and offer really dirt cheap parts? When I say best I really just mean cheapest and least sh*tty. Ideally faster shipping & un defective goods (most airsoft ports don't have warranty on them any how) I've heard ebairsoft and ROSV are good (asian) and also Taiwangun & GunFire are good (EU)

Hi there, Wanted to know if you guys could link me a fairly recent (post 2012) British guide on upgrading my king arms M4. All the guides I see right now are american and promote very isolated products that would only be imported from CH to UK. Anyways I am looking at internal upgrades for my King Arms Colt M4A1. It currently has this: Madbull shark hop rubber Fully shimmed gearbox Ball bearing spring guide Plan on buying this tommorow: Hamsterfet (Anti braking in this) www.ak2m4.co.uk/hamsterfet-mosfet-kit Deans Connectors - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390266120100 Trigger switch (should I get an upgrade on this or seeing as I'm going MOSFET it won't matter?) www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121320873276 http://cgi.ebay.co.u...E:X:RTQ:GB:1123 (1m of red and 1m of blue, i got the ebay user to cut it specific for me even though it says 5m on the listing). That is silver plated copper 16 awg and should fit be compatible? I'm not too sure though as it is 19 AWG internally. What sort of mech box upgrades should I go with, and what brand SHS or madbull? Mainly just want a higher FPS, and higher reliability. Thanks

Yep, done that thanks now works greatly. Ok so another fault I have is the mag release button.................. RRGH that damn button has become stripped (turns out common issue) and the allen key needs to be around 0.7mm to fit anyway. Could I lever the button out using some flat head screwdriver?

http://i.imgur.com/wiU7g0l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/SjcAlpG.jpg the spring used to be a lot more springier and put pressure on the front take down pin.

Yeah yeah, the spade connectors on the motors. One of them snapped of so going to be removing and replacing it with a new spade connector.

I imagine so. Anyways I have just reassembled the gun without that flimsy piece of shit annoying me. I don't think it has any use other than aesthetic purposes and so aesthetically I don't care about it. I still have a minor problem and then I am stress free. There is a small spring that I need to compress again (because it holds the front pin). Any ideas on how I can go about compressing the spring so that it pushes against the pin, keeping it in place

Heh, OK thanks. Do you recommend any cheap ones <£20: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AIRSOFT-ULTIMATE-ELECTRONIC-MOSFET-UNIT-POWER-CONTROL-UNIT-/111322100710?pt=UK_SportingGoods_OtherSports&hash=item19eb5073e6 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AIRSOFT-MOSFET-GATE-PICO-SSR-MOSFET-POWER-CONTROL-SWITCH-/111120194545?pt=UK_SportingGoods_OtherSports&hash=item19df479bf1 http://www.patrolbase.co.uk/airsoft-internal-electronics/patrol-base-12v-mosfet.htm#.U7Zwu7GMx5Y Aside from that do CPC sell the female spade connectors & heatshrink assortments?

Hello, I am having trouble finding the following items on CPC (some to buiild a MOSFET, others to fix connectors etc): 1 x IRL1404Z Mosfet (N) 1 x SPP80P06P Mosfet (P) 1 x 6" length of red 16 AWG wire 2 x 3" lengths of black 16 AWG wire 1 x 3" length of thin wire Assorted Heatshrink Tubing (similar to this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161161130410) Uninsulated Female 2.8mm connector (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151088839413) If anybody could help locate these items for my ver 2. gearbox m4 i would be extremely grateful!

Before I continue you reckon this is a simple fix, all I have to do is fix the receiver's problem and possibly replace the trigger contacts (gun wont send power to motor).... I would have quit days ago and sent to my tech but he is out of work until October! Do you think I can get this fixed by myself? My gun is rear wired. Whenver I pull back the charging handle the silver ornament plate flips out and derails!! Here are the pictures before and after I actually pull the charging handle: http://imgur.com/efpNawi,TWUcnf3,9x7V2Nw,WIo3gZ0,95t8zk9,UH5JMEi,Q4Lq6CT,rYovAau

Whaa? It looks exactly as the same as this one here: http://www.replicaairguns.com/storage/thumbnails/7262430-17255199-thumbnail.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1332629564384 Could you explain a bit more please

Hi thanks for that, When I try to install the lower and upper receiver back it wont fully go in. Also the hop up and barrel seems loose, there is also a small brass o (o ring?) that keeps falling out of the hop up chamber.. should I duck tape the seal from the madbull barerel to the hop up. And finally once the receiver is on the ornament plate wont lock back in place when pulling the charging handle. http://i.imgur.com/dNNBlHj.jpg Really sorry about all the questions, just beginning to work on my gun for the first time and I feel that asking around is the best way to go.http://i.imgur.com/KrE1iuv.jpg

Thanks for the link but have you not checked the image I linked to in the OP. I see that after reading it I may have been unclear, I have those parts except I have misplaced them (its fallen off) and I need to reinstall them back into the Upper Receiver. Could you show me how I can reinstall the ornment plate

Hi, I'm new to this forum and new to repairing. Recently my King arms stopped working so I tried getting it repaired, as I live in Carlisle we only have one technician, Tone, but he cannot do any jobs until October. The problem is the gun won't shoot. It's not due to the battery, fuse (there is no fuse), or motor and so I believe it is down to the trigger contacts (any other ideas please), which is located in my Gearbox. Anyway the current problem at hand is that after dissassembling my rifle successfully (yay!) I seem to have misplaced the silver fake bolt thing which after pulling back the charging handle opens the dust cover. The dust cover does not open now. My receiver has a slightly different one to the many tutorials on youtube. Could any of you offer me a link to a tutorial on youtube to fixing it. I am having a really hard time and would appreciate it greatly! This is what the misplaced bolt looks like if any of you are wondering: http://i.imgur.com/OiOaFIL.jpg
