As the title suggests I'm looking for a god spring to put my CYMA M14 EBR into the 450fps zone, anyone that can say "will get you abut 450" or "I KNOW it will give 450" is great! All parts are stock. Thanks - Corky

Roger that

Thanks all, got all the info I needed, sorry about the ICS gun confusion to some of you (I know the ICS turbo 3000 is pretty good, I've out performed some 9.6v's with an 8.4v in it ) So I'll look into a rewire (maybe) just to make things that wee bitty better, mosfet is now a must if/when I get a lipo. Last question (I swear!): Can I use a high torque motor well with an 8.4v battery or is it a dumb idea and should do the whole lot together?

No mate its for a Cyma M14 EBR (havent updated my guns yet haha)

Right then so far it is it would appear, anyone got any good cheap ones off the top of your heads? Also I only have a pdi 170% spring which seems lighter than a m130 spring but similar performance. Will I still need such a beefy motor?

so I'm about to change my gun into a dmr and want a faster trigger response (will be getting a high torque motor) I also wanted to use a lipo battery in it, preferably an 11.1v with a mediocre to high discharge rate, not fussed if it's 11.1v So, as I'm only going to be using semi and can't spam, do I need a mosfet in the gun? If anyone has any good cheap lipo's/mosfets you can link that would also be dandy Thanks Corky

So either or should be fine? That's good to know, and thanks for the specific kind. I can never find a forum that says "use X thing" instead they say "this is okay, that's not, don't use that and also look for these ingredients..." Out of curiosity, what's the difference between the two greases you listed?

So I'm planning to open my gearbox up for the first time (don't fret I'm not doing anything stupid) and want to know if I need to, once cleaned of factory crap: Should I use grease or some spray oil thing? and if so can I get a list of brands/types of either? Thanks all -Corky

Looking at the PDI 170% spring, good reviews, said to be about 400-420 fps so an AoE correction should make it not run hot.

Good to hear, probably just going to do a general clean up, spring upgrade for heavier bb's and "maybe" correct the AoE. Thanks for the help by the way, it's good to actually get someone to talk to instead of trolling 50 forums for ages finding out what sort of grease/oil I should use.

I'm a tech noob, read up on people saying its better, probably for like 2% difference.

Perhaps I might be forced to go for the shorter barrel it would appear, unless I can find some suppressor that fits the barrel's thread. It will be hard to find one, the cyma m14 EBR is fairly quiet in the airsoft community.

Yeah tha'ts were the problem lies, G&P's mk14 QD one would fit but is pricey and I don't know anything about the barrel thread yet so will have to just wait and see on that one. though I think a ~450mm would be fine and will stay hidden. (looking at the ZCI barrels)

Of course, read it about 4-5 times now... in 2 days. After thinking I might just opt for spring upgrade to something cheap but good i.e. madbull m130, with a barrel upgrade, maybe a little longer too. Mainly because I don't have a lot of money and some parts are hard to get in the UK cheap

So would a madbull black python v2, with an r-hop + good bucking/nub combo plus a spring change get me where I want to be fairly easily? (not exactly new to internals but not confident)

people say its DMR material OTB, is this true?

That good to hear, just wanted some reassurance for TG. Thanks all

As the title suggests I'm interested in the Cyma M14 EBR, always loved the body and have always wanted one. I've decided upon the Cyma one purely because its low price gives me more room to upgrade (to start with just essentials, nothing to fiddly) The reason I want it is also to make it a DMR when I'm finished with it. So, where would the best place to buy one be? - I have looked at tiawangun.com and it appears to be the cheapest on their site, and without shipping fees. Any and all help finding one would be great, and any help on parts to upgrade i.e. hop bucking, barrels etc. would also be great. Cheers - Corky

Awesome thanks for that, I'm not a pussy trust me haha but I don't like to be weighted down by something like that.

Ah I right, then yeah looks like 200/116 should be perfect for me. Only other thing is I like to move around a lot, is the osprey mk4 or similar heavy? (Without plates of course)

I have found some for around £40-50 but what do the sizes mean? "200/116"?

Yeah I saw, AliExpress is cheaper and I'm a tight wad

Only problem is HobbyKing is the only place with that cheap a price than most HK ebay sellers and HobbyKing does not seem to have a good rep. -Edit- Aliexpress has it for £23 free ship, I've used them before. Quite reputable.

Ok thanks, just wanted to make sure I'm getting my money's worth for £40-50

Yeah I get that, tbh I think I'm done looking, m600c seems to get nothing but praise and I haven't heard of the m961 other than a couple YouTube reviews, either way they seem very similar.
