    High Pressure Air sub forum in Advice & Technical Help

    I'm no HPA guy, so school me. Don't they feature a gearbox-shaped control box in the same place as an AEG gearbox and use AEG parts?

    High Pressure Air sub forum in Advice & Technical Help

    Well there are two main types of HPA gun, one based on an AEG (like a p*, wolverine etc) and one based on a GBB (basically tapping your HPA line into the gas mags gas reservoir, and using the HPA in the same way as green gas, it through the line) I was being an arkward bastard and comparing...

    High Pressure Air sub forum in Advice & Technical Help

    To put it simply, hpa guns work vastly differently to other gas guns, so peeps with problems would find it easier to find help if the few hpa wizards amongst us didn't have to find the threads in the gas section And I'm pretty sure the community here has the sense to realise that whilst it is...

    Shame there's no report button on the mobile version (unless I'm just daft and didn't see it :P )

    What's everyone asking Santa for ....

    Well an APC or something would be cool to milsim in, fit an airsoft MG to the roof and rig the main cannon barrel to a tag launcher Santa better bring a few dozen barrels of diesel to run it though, and a crate of tags for good measure

    Thank you for your time GBB

    Don't pile the hate on, but I'd reccomend a WE p226. My 228 (essentially the same) is built like a bomb case and only ever let me down when there was snow on the ground or when I abused it badly. Other than that, it's been dropped, kicked, bashed and generally given a hard time and it still...

    Tamiya Mini connector to balance charger

    Also, think this was missed by the guys before: Don't charge a Lipo battery by the main connector (whether it's deans or tamiya), instead use a proper charger designed for Lipo batteries via the balance port (dinky little connector with three (2s) or four (3s) pins. Charging via the main...

    fingerless gloves or not?

    If anyone reading this forum isn't prepared to take a hit that hurts, then airsoft isn't for them. For the people like you and me that take it, swear a little then accept it as part of the game, you're on the right track Remember that a new player will be in a new environment. Things like...

    we g17

    Look on the left side of the mags. There is a little window where the follower (the part that pushes the bbs) can push up the mag catch when there is no BB in the mag.

    fingerless gloves or not?

    I wear fingerless gloves all the time when skirmishing. Easy to manipulate fire selectors, magazine catches, grenade pins etc. Yes you get the occasional unlucky hit to an exposed bit of finger, but it isn't any more painful than a hit to the funny bone in your hand through gloves (those little...

    Buying from Japan on Holiday

    Yes, declare the goods. Else your case will be destroyed and you get exactly 0 airsoft toys. RIFs are illegal to import so your baggage will be held until you prove your defence (UKARA should work. But I'm not certain. If contact the airport as well to check) so it's best to make it abundantly...

    Respraying 2 tones different 2 tone colors.

    Don't forget the glitter and neon! That reminds me now, did anyone else see Harley Quinn toting an MG around in the Arkham Knight game and wonder if you could make an airsoft version... Just me?

    Modding my ICS L85

    Yea, but the internal dimensions are probably smaller than that

    Respraying 2 tones different 2 tone colors.

    I know its late and its probably done already. But no legislation or regulation says it has to be 51% bright colours, that's just a common interpretation. As long as the IF looks unrealistic both in a gun case and when you're using it, then it's an IF rather than an RIF. It relies a little on...

    Respraying 2 tones different 2 tone colors.

    Aye, if its still unrealistically coloured then you're fine within the letter of the law

    I used a PEQ 15 battery box with a we Europe block Lipo, a little on the tight side but worked a treat

    Gas Tanaka Sic 93 (lookalike M93R) FIRING ON IT'S OWN!?!

    I'm not familiar with the pistol, so I don't know what the gold piece is I'm afraid Did the pin stay back when you let the slide forward again? If so, and pressing the trigger pushes it forwards instantly, then your trigger is working somewhat well. It could be getting fouled by something but...

    Gas Tanaka Sic 93 (lookalike M93R) FIRING ON IT'S OWN!?!

    Try this With the magazine removed, press and release the trigger With your longest finger, reach inside the mag well and feel for the firing pin, it should be positioned right behind the valve when the mag is in Whilst feeling the pin, pull the slide back Does the pin move backwards out of...
