Damned right. Only masochistic weirdos like those contraptions....😜

Looks like a ball-ache to get apart. Pesky Ambi controls with their associated cogs and tiny pieces....

They are plastic fake rounds:

That's normal for most chargers. I have about 50-60 LiPo packs at the moment for my RC hobbies as well as Airsoft, they all get stored at 3.8v per cell with no noticeable ill effects.

That's hardly 'weaning' though - they are just heavier M4s.

I have 6 M4s. In my defence, I have two sons that play as well, so that's a main gun and a spare each. Three of the M4s are ICS guns in various configurations. I have the flexibility to mix and match parts should one go down, or I want a different setup for Woodland or CQB etc. Every time I deviate from the M4 platform with another gun type, I find myself wishing it was an M4. Unlike what some heathens on this thread tell you (looking at you @rocketdogbert 😜) , the correct formula for owning M4s is: N = N+1. N representing the number of M4s you currently own. So carry on. 😁

G&G SCARs are decent guns. I would pump some cash into upgrading that in the first instance (something like a Perun ETU would be a good start). I know it doesn't do the cool stuff you are after, but it'll send BB's downrange as efficiently as any other AEG.

Hey, if it makes your bollocks tingle and you can square it with the missus, then go for it…😜 A well looked after TM NGRS will hold value fairly well too, should you wish to part company with it at a later date.

But that’s the point, it IS an error by DE, the pic I posted was of the REAL ACP556 taken directly from the B&T website. The markings on the Airsoft version are wrong. You tried to be the smart arse adding incorrect context to a spelling mistake made in the DE factory for internet cool points.

Well, things haven't really changed - expect sub-300fps out of the box and meh ROF, but you get the recoil and bolt stop. You do get metal bodies (with the exception of guns like the G36) on the NGRS line. The TM fans will be along shortly, but essentially some will tell you that it'll be the best gun ever - once you pay a gun tech a fuck-tonne of cash so they can gut the pretty much the entire gearbox and replace with aftermarket parts. Allegedly these techs have secret stocks of the patented 'TM Fairy Dust' that they pour into the newly 'upgraded' gearboxes to make them even more amazeballs. You'll also be told by others fans that the low stock FPS is not an issue - you just have to be more patient as the BB slowly ambles over to your target. I mean, the person you will be shooting at will be so impressed by the TM shooting at them, they'll stand completely still and wait for you. Perk of TM NGRS ownership apparently. Recoil and bolt stop is cool though.

Good info. I take it they feed fine? Oh, and welcome to the forums. 🙂

Well, you wanted your Ackchyually moment.... I was going to argue that I've not seen a modern firearm stamped with 'COL' and COAL is the acronym used when it comes to cartridge length in any other context, but couldn't be bothered at the time. But carry on and keep trying to win the internet.

Yeah. If it ain't broke, leave the fucking thing alone. 🙄 You're welcome.

I would need an MWS trigger guard to take measurements - I'm assuming they are not the same as AEGs (narrower?) Knocked up a version that's closer in appearance to the HK A5 Type, but using ICS hole spacing/vertical thickness for now.

Nope - I don't have an MWS - I only own budget blasters. 😉 Looks like a 'proper' HK416A5 style guard would be a fairly easy design/print though.

Gotta love ICS and their 'not-quite-TM' standards. Not even a 'normal' AEG trigger guard will fit an ICS CS4-spec gun. Oh well, I'll design my own - kinda HK416A5 style. It also fills that pesky gap between the grip and receiver so it's much more comfortable,

Firstly, welcome to the forums. You could buy some ali tube in the correct diameter and cut the notches into it with a hacksaw to DIY a tool if you want a non-damaging/marring method of removal. Apparently, according to this thread, you can wedge a couple of allen keys in there and bodge it out though if you are not too bothered about the condition that the nut comes out. I have designed and 3d printed tools for other proprietary G&G barrel nuts in the past, they are not massively torqued-down by the factory so the plastic is strong enough. Indeed, there is a file on thingiverse (not my design) if you or a mate has a 3D printer. Happy to print you a couple for a few quid (to cover postage) if you get stuck.

Cool story bro....🙄

Ah, missed that bit. Thanks.

Dremel FTW

Out of interest - how would you know that the owner hasn't followed the instructions? What's to say that he didn't just put the mag in the gun for the Sales photos? Genuine question - not picking holes.

Fuck it - this is Macks. Name and shame n'all that.

This one? The pic of the Gearbox alone would have put me off. I wonder if @andrey has the balls to comment on this. What a shit. Taking a look at his other listings, this picture stands out: A zip tie around the front sight post, and some other gunk probably to hold it all together. Quality gunsmithing right there.

If the motor is the same as the one that came in my Cyma AKS-74U (blue internals) , it's as slow as molasses - i think around 10RPS IIRC. Replace it with a 16TPA SHS or similar. A 7.4v LiPo will then run the gun quite happily at around 15RPS.
