It's the pricing that puts me off that one - another £15-20 gets you the excellent Perun Hybrid unit with the wiring already soldered. Should drop into a Specna GB with no fuss. NanoASRs can be had for £20. Yes, you still have to solder, but the two signal wires is easier to deal with than two power wires plus a signal into the switch for cable routing. Obviously you don't get AB and precocking, but you do get the ability to hot-swap the unit later on if it dies, or you want to upgrade. But again, for me, the Perun Hybrid is the way to go. Edit: Looking at the wiring diagrams, you could bodge the AB++ onto the existing X-ASR wiring. Not sure I would want to do that personally but it looks like it could be done.
-
Yeh - the X-ASRs do that. Especially if you put a few more amps through them (i.e. an upgraded motor). Don't bother with another one. They are shit. And the wiring setup differs from the Nano-ASR, Nano-HARD, WARFET etc so it's not plug'n'play. I would go down the Perun Hybrid route personally, but a cheaper option would be to either fit a complete replacement switch/wiring set (non-mosfet - will work for years on a 7.4v LiPo), or fit a cheap simple dumb mosfet (like the nano-ASR) and at least you can easily upgrade to the likes of a WARFET later.

Bulldog = SRC + Custom Branding. Use it, abuse it, if (when?) it breaks, sell the parts and move on. Don't spend any money on 'upgrading' it, other than perhaps a new hop rubber. There's a good chance that it will soldier on just fine, assuming you don't expect too much in terms of ROF and Power.

She's a beauty - and only 20-30min up the road from me as well. Just need to convince the missus that £18k would be money well spent...😜

Welcome. There are a couple of sites calling themselves 'Spec Ops' or 'Special Ops' - which one are you referring to? Loads of info on here, with plenty of advise on buying guns and gear.
-
Yep. It's hard to tell from compressed video audio though. Could very well be a stripped gear (spur or sector). In either case - it's a strip-down and rebuild job.
-
Stripped Piston would be my bet.
-
Fair points. There's a fair chance the seller knew exactly what they were doing sticking up that particular advert.
-
IMHO - these type of adverts should be reported (through the normal reporting mechanism) for the moderators to deal with. They can use other methods of enforcing the forums rule (i.e. issue warnings) rather than outright banning them that would occur with the spam-flag function. It might just be a genuine mistake on the part of the seller (unlikely in this instance, I know, but not impossible), with a little bit of 'education' needed to correct their actions. But again, that's just my opinion - the mods may feel differently.

Same. Can't really go wrong with a TM-Clone G36.
-
Yeh - I've flagged a few now. This new system seems to work quite well. I also try to keep an eye on members registered in the last 24 hours - I've found a few that way before they have posted, where they are clearly identifiable as a spam account - e.g. one had a bag of powder as an avatar and various overseas phone numbers in their bio.
-
I ask myself that when I look at the stack of ICS M4s I've got. I enjoy working on them - and built one from literally spare parts - but do I need 5? Of course not. But it's good to have spares, right? 😜

The 'What have you just bought' Thread

They look good - do you need to apply any kind of clear coat (lacquer) over the top for protection? -
I still kick myself for not picking one up when they first released on TG for £114. Luckily, the (as new) one I bought a few weeks was part of airsoft retirement kit bundle, so once I offloaded the stuff I didn't want it cost me less than £100. Quite please with that.
-
Can't expect much from a gun already punching above it's price class. I think it's pretty admirable that they got an optical ETU functional and in production for the cost they released at, when the likes of G&G, Evolution, Cyma et al are still using microswitch-actuated ETUs. Don't get me wrong - cost compromises have been made in some places - the bushings on my M904G are very roughly finished and the GB is a touch 'wide' (I had to use nearly 40x 0.1mm shims to stop the gears rattling like maracas) but I think they've done a decent enough job all round.
-
That makes sense. I might pick up a 28TPA motor for mine. Should run quite a bit cooler and more efficiently than the stock motor.
-
What motor are you running? - I tried a 16TPA SHS in mine and I was getting overspin.
-
Welcome to the forums. All your questions will be answered with just a quick browse through the forum sections. My advice - rent for you first three games before buying anything.
-
Dear god - that is a thing of beauty. The SF handguard looks great on there.

Never believe the stated mAh on Airsoft LiPo packs. 2 x 1300mAh (quite old but good quality) RC packs would get me through a fairly average day of play easily. I bought some brand new 'Airsoft' 1300mAh packs and they just about last 2 games, and definately wouldn't make it to the lunch break. I've now fitted stubby fixed stocks to a couple of my guns so I can throw in a decent sized (and quality) 3000mAh 11.1c RC LiPo and roll all day with it.

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Speedbird_666 replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Just received a boneyard Classic Army UMP from @THE FNG. She'll need a bit of work, but I'm hoping to have her up and running for my next day of BBwarz. I forgot how much I love H&K plastic spaceguns (*looking at my big pile of boring M4s*). -
Yeh - took me a little while to pick up on that too. Good move to roll out the functionality to the Supporters - hopefully they will be able to help tackle this issue.

Ooof. Another morning of Spam. I've reported eveything I could find again.
-
Just been hit with another wave of spam threads. 😪 I'll keep reporting them as I see them.
