    Help Me to Convince a Site Owner to Switch to Joules Please

    This is true altho any gun with an excess of energy in the spring will create creep with heavier bbs, just because the extra time the bb spends in the barrel soaks up the extra energy. DMRs and BASRs have typically longer barrels and larger effective cylinders, stronger springs too, but for...

    Charging lipo connectors

    Use the croc clips on the Tamiya connector, as above you need to match the wire colour cos you may have a battery of either polarity on those Tamiyas. My suggestion would be to ditch the Tamiyas and pop on some xt30s or xt60s if space isn't a problem. I know ppl like the Deans, but its large...

    Air nozzle issues

    Invest in a couple of adjustable nozzles which have helped me greatly with fault finding if the nozzle is suspect. Once you have the right nozzle length you can go buy the right one. Also tappet plates can be bent forwards or back wards at the time of manufacture and/or have mouldings that...

    Air nozzle issues

    The nozzle must insert itself into the lips at least a little to create a seal and in my guns the nozzle penetrates the lips enough so that they are past the taper of the nozzle. You'll get misfeeds and air escaping into the magwell if the nozzle and lips aren't working right. Different hop...

    piston o ring, nozzle or hop rubber would be my choices, all can be checked just dropping the gearbox out and checking pressures in  a ballparky way

    Tappet Plates.

    so that fin gets bent up a bit on each rotation, esp if you have play there, so it work hardens on the lower area I guess then snaps.

    Tappet Plates.

    It seems CNC from a block of POM is considered best from retro arms. Aluminium was rejected for unknown reasons. https://www.retroarms.com/news/tappet-plates-and-how-they-are-different

    G36 V3 Gearbox Trigger Not Resetting Properly

    Have you got the spring the right way up? The spring as I recall is off centre from its mounting points so has a right way to be fitted.

    Tappet Plates.

    Its hard to get 3d printed things like this to retain the strength of the material you are using without adding more material to the design by way of fillets or larger cross section. Nylons are great materials but you cant clone an injection moulded design by 3d printing it and retain the...

    Guarder enhanced nozzle set

    Those 4 prongs are clearly a weak area, but as above its no bad thing really. A repair is unlikely to last unless you've been able to reinforce it somehow. Probs best to get a couple in.

    Lipo Charging questions!....

    Ive used alot of turnigy batteries over the years and they have been great. ive got some nuprols and they have been ok, but clearly a lower standard of battery ( not sure it matters for airsoft tho) Its not a good idea to store lipos at a low state of charge, but stored full they will just lose...

    Why TM build quality is worth the price.

    I imagine a tm with issues is worth repairing given the prices new so won't turn up in the boneyard. Or TM have a different policy with regard to returns of faulties. I have never once thought of the resale value of my Airsoft stuff, esp before I buy something. All the guns I have bought have...
