    WE P226 BB roll out of barrel

    taking the rubber out and soaking it in Silicon lube overnight might swell it a little (but dry the inside surface before reassembling) or try putting the hop on more? Seems extreme ordering one from Evike but when needs must I guess?!

    I'm after a specific rifle due to requirements

    Yes it is! Apart from the lugging around bit lol! I have a Star M60E4 and its great fun (as in my username pic), its not especially heavy but it is awkward to carry around, even with a sling, due to the box mag sticking out one side and cocking handle the other, but none of that matters when the...

    bbgunsforless are they a good sight to.buy from

    retailers usually only chrono randomly, different batches of identical guns may have different springs hence the figures quoted. Some will allow you to specify the spring you want at additional cost. When it comes to retailers there will always be someone who has had a bad experience with any...

    M4 Dmr conversion

    If you're making a dedicated DMR then yes the gearbox & motor will need to be substantially modified/replaced to put out 400-450fps with 0.2s (depending on your site DMR limits) and locked to fire semi auto only (note you will have MED Minimum Engagement Distance rules imposed, usually 30m...

    Green Party banning airsoft

    First off the thread title is a little sensationalist to say the least. I don't think I'm alone in saying I'm not going to lose any sleep over this "threat". Airsoft isn't currently in danger of being banned, certainly not compared to what was threatened in 2006, when thankfully a consortium of...

    Gun picture thread

    before you fit all the gearbox components to the ZCI shell put the 2 halves together and check the fit of the hop unit into the front, its almost certain you will need to file a small amount away to get a good fit. I only say this as I didn't first time round and had to dismantle the entire gb...

    Cybergun fnx 45 parts

    o rings will be standard sizes, but you'd need to know WHICH standard size to get the right ones, as there are many different valve types using different size rings. You can buy assortment packs of O rings from diy stores (or online probably), I got a box set of metric rings for a fiver from...

    The GBBR Thread

    Alpha55 banned 0.3s in GBB pistols (and presumably GBBRs, thoughI need to check) last year for precisely the reasons of joule creep.

    G&G top tech gen 3 owners - problems with MOSFETs?

    Probably worth going for a decent aftermarket mosfet rather than another G&G one in that case, as some seem to have had repeat problems with the stock one. Can't recommend one as I don't use them but there are plenty on here who do so over to them. . . :)

    M4 single fire issues

    On full auto in theory on a given motor and battery it will give a slightly faster rate of fire yes, BUT it will put slightly greater strain on the motor due to greater torque being required, meaning the motor will probably take longer to spin up, so on semi auto in particular it may slow down...

    V2 gearbox problems

    I've used a couple of ZCI v2 shells in projects (also from ak2m4) and they are good for the money, really simple and come with all the electrical/fire selector/trigger parts already installed, just fitting gears and piston/cylinder components as required. The quick change spring is a useful...

    The Noveske Diplomat Build

    Well that clears up the Green Party's view on airsofters then, I don't think we need worry about them being in Government anytime soon though. :) Although tbh their policy isn't hugely different to the VCR Bill as originally written, aside from the ownership issue, prior to the changes...

    Cybergun fnx 45 parts

    Cybergun don't actually make them, they have licensed copies made of other manufacturers guns, (pistols are mainly KWC and VFC oem), VFC are the actual makers of the FNX afaik. Cybergun don't seem to do spares, and VFC spares aren't widely available either so its probably a case of trawling some...

    TM G26 Advanced Slide

    KJ Works are supposedly direct copies of the TM guns, but how exact a fit it would be I've no idea. But the one you linked is out of stock too anyway! :)

    TM G26 Advanced Slide

    http://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/marui-g26-slide-part-g26-1 out of stock currently but £17 for standard TM slide would be the cheapest option. Worth dropping them a line to see if/when they are getting more in.

    Looking for a good metal body m4

    There are a few here: https://bbguns4less.co.uk/categories/Black-UKARA-Guns/ Many on here will say to avoid retailers with "bbguns" in the name, I have never used them so can't comment, but I know others have used them with no problems. However I do have the A&K LR-300 and its a good rifle...

    WE Knighthawk 1911 help?

    Why not stick it in the swaps section in trade for a 1911? Probably most cost effective solution. :)

    The GBBR Thread

    Cheers, will look some out, I assumed that was just green gas under a different name tbh. I've tried their brut sniper gas which gives about the same ball park velocity as propane.
