  1. I genuinely appreciate the time and effort you've been putting into your responses; you've been a brilliant help so far and while chucking more possibilites my way, your totally right, i have enough time to learn and it's an absolute pain!
  2. Right so, in the project of making a video or two to demonstrate my issue, and in the process.......lost a fucking selector plate spring. so for now, project is on hold. Further messing around is starting to indicate that the trigger contacts/trigger itself may be to blame. Could there be a way for me to incorrectly install the COL to cause a trigger contact issue? Initially i thought it was a wiring issue, like a break, but right now im half tempted to scrap the whole thing or get screwed over by a airsoft company tech on prices just to get the fucker working. Also, yes, motor does turn by free hand with abit of a push but other than that it works fine.
  3. You may be onto something there. Looking at the ambi selector, it's only slightly off on the one side, but you wouldn't think it'd cause that much of an issue. As for box alignment? considering how well everything fits (bar the motor currently), i WANT to be keen on the idea of it not being that, but it's definitely something to consider, just dont tell me i have to take out again....😭 I should mention that this was also when i was firing with the motor free from the handle; more oft than not it would just "seize" and not move while making that sound you'd associate with an electrical short or just the motor severely struggling. it was also overspin for some benign reason. I feel like i should KNOW what the funk is happening.........I'll probably wind up taking a video tomorrow or something for some better understanding.
  4. Cheers folks! doubled down on the COL, bought a replacement and presto! works a treat! Now for the NEW problems 🤨🙄 Just had to remove gearbox from lower receiver a second time to realign the ambi selectors (because they work on an external GEAR SYSTEM HELD BY THE CHASSIS AND IF IT'S NOT ALIGNED CORRECTLY TO THE SELECTOR PLATE, SAFE DOESNT WORK, ARE YOU JOKING!?) for the centrepiece of my worries; The trigger has gotten really, and i mean REALLY hard to pull; at first i thought the motor had crapped out or locked up because it was just refused to turn. when it does shoot, it does the following; Sounds really screechy, so obviously something to do with motor height, but adjusting the height adjustor does zero adjusting; grip must be tight or wires are holding it up. don't remember seeing any motor spacers, but will keep an eye on it. the initial firing test messing around with the motor caused a "trip" sound in the gearbox, or moreso of a click; first thing that came to mind was triggering something on the anti-reversal latch side of things, which is when the entire issue with the motor first started. shoots normal-ish now, but still with a heavy trigger without a bite point. Side note; is it normal for the selector switch to just glide between semi/auto without clicking into it like a standard M4 would?
  5. Bollocks. Again, bollocks. Guess i'll just have to bite the bullet and get to different COL's and see what sticks
  6. Considering it's a V2 gearbox in my situation, would it matter in terms of which brand COL i buy? searching around for a diagram/manual of sorts for internal lists and not getting anything; id rather know what part to get before i take it apart and forget what to do for 2-3 weeks to wait for delivery. Had a quick peek at the selector plate, looks totally fine, still greased up quite well and sits and operates fine. the two external springs on the gearbox are still alive and springy, so narrows it down to COL to me. only issue is which one fits.
  7. About to get round to fixing this problem myself. Sneaking suspicion that it could be the cutoff lever being worn out; but would like some secondary input if anyone has experienced a similar problem. The gun is wired in a deans/lipo build if that makes any difference (allegedly it does because WE AEG internals are pig metal, so would an SHS gearset be preferable....?)
  8. I did my research until after the trade with a teammate who basically got conned into buying an ex-players lot which turned out to be junk builds), this was in the lot so i nabbed it. All those cool features though.....can it run 11.1?
  9. Swapped my stock CYMA AK. For a brand spanking new and unused Ares AM-009. I feel so so so dirty.
  10. Anybody know where I can find an IN STOCK 7/8 inch outer barrel for M4? got a last minute CQB setup i want to try......

    1. RabidNinja64

      RabidNinja64

      and this would fit an A&K M4 Clone?

  11. So, decided on the ICS L86A2. Anyone got any tips for maintenance and use? 

  12. So, Ares Stoner? 11.1 Lipo ready?

      I'd say the stoner, although thanks to airsoft a drum mag in the l86 will net the same results.

      It all depends on which one feels right for you personally I use a stoner63 it's fantastic but at the same time I wish I had never got rid of L86 LSW  but as Asomodia has said the L86 may not be the right choice for MILSIM so it will depend on two factors which one you like best and your intend use I.E skirmish or MILSIM

      Appreciate the responses, guys. Can anyone comment on the internals of either gun? considering I know ICS and ares are pretty good in the AEG department

  15. That heart stopping moment when your M4 reciever pin flies off in the safe zone while your disassembling...

  16. Anyone know where I can get MLOK parts? 

    1. ak2m4

      ak2m4

      What MLOK parts do you actually need?  Whole rail or just accessories?

    2. RabidNinja64

      RabidNinja64

      bit of both tbh 

    3. ak2m4

      ak2m4

      got some mlok nsr rails coming in a few days

  17. Got my birthday on a black friday this year ;D Think i'll treat myself to a new gun for the next game on the 2nd, Anyone recommend an AK for around £200?

  18. Quick techie question concerning GoPro hero session's from peoples personal experience; anyone got recommendations for Micro SDcards?

      Iv'e had SanDisk and Samsung in all of my cameras. The only reason I use SanDisk over Samsung is when I have to use a gopro as it cant take anything over 32gb

      +1 for SanDisk. I use this card in my camera and it works fine.

    4. Skara

      Using SanDisk in my hero 3+ silver, never had a problem.

      They work and they're relatively inexpensive.

  19. Here we go again! 2 years out of the sport and im mentally preparing myself for tomorrow xD

  20. Can anyone suggest internal upgrades for turning an M4 into an LMG platform? Using the A&K CASV, and im unsure if it's got a high torque motor, or if i need to upgrade my gearset or install a mosfet?

      @AshOnSnow because you can only hear piston hitting cylinder head and not so much of the gears whiny noise, i always shim my guns to best of my ability, even my KWA RM4 recoil gun is shimmed perfectly only hear piston hitting the cylinder head and ofc the recoil shock.

  21. Dug out my M4 after a year of not using it, charged battery and doesn't fire? Argh balls :(

      Haven't really opened it that far to check. bit of a noob in AEG repairs. Will check tomorrow though

    3. AshOnSnow

      AshOnSnow

      Not much of a repair - where the battery connects, just make sure one of the wires hasn't popped out of the little plug on the gun

       

    4. RabidNinja64

      RabidNinja64

      Ohh you mean the soldered connectors? Yeah they're fine. Even tested the battery in another gun and it works, so it's definitely somet to do with the gun itself.

  22. Hey all :) Quick question; Anyone got any insight if the JG AUG-A2 is decent?

    1. RabidNinja64

      RabidNinja64

      Sorry not the A2- the 2G.

    2. aftershock

      aftershock

      Jg Augs are tm clones and yes they are decent. The worst ones are supposedly classic army

  23. Thanks for all the input guys really appreciated. Oh, and when i say naturally, i mean it was meningitis as a baby, meaning her left arm is the only mobile one. Saying that, im tempted to get her to do some form of a furiosa loadout from mad max; arm included xD Regardless,a sling and hi-cap mags are a necessity as a learning curve in her situation. An MP5 sounds the most viable as it means she can tag along with me sneaking about ^.^
  24. Long and short of it, I have a female friend with one arm whos taken an interest in this hobby of mine. Id love to tag her along, but being both a new player and with a physical disability,i find it daunting to find a comfort zone to suggest to her. Any suggestions are welcome.
