    WE 999 DMR

    Hello, I fancied a DMR so I thought I would convert my G36k I think it is. There's nothing special going in, just a stronger spring and a simple MOSFET for the trigger. Here's the gearbox, I'll add more as I get on with it. I was able to lock it to semi by using a longer gearbox bolt and...

    Dmr ammo load.

    What's a typical dmr ammo load? I have some 20s and some normal ones. I've seen some shorter mags between the 2 sizes, 60s. Feels like a good idea tobuseva shorter mag incase I want to lie down. Can't see them in the UK tho only sixmm.com. Any thoughts? Probably relevant they need to be G36...

    Forum file size

    Is there a file size limit, I've searched but nothing pops up? Is it just the max storage I have in the forum?

    Mp5 v2 gearbox motor height

    I need tips for setting motor height in the v2 box.  The mp5 grip extends way up so I can't see the bevel gear to even start the process. Any tips, do I need to make a jig? Guess?

    B6 style battery chargers.

    I was fiddling with my charger this morning, having owned it for maybe 10 years and I found it had a brushed motor power mode. You can set the voltage and the max amps, up to 5A. Useful I think for motor comparison and running in, if anyone does this. Do others have this setting? The option...

    Mp5 short magazines

    Anyone used short mags? Particular the 240ish round double mags. Anything to note, other than lower capacity?

    Silencer/Supressor

    I know these are used cosmetically but has anyone used these to reduce or mask noise in Airsoft? How effective are they? Anyone do anything in particular to make them effective? I'm aware that there's significant noise from an aeg gearbox or gbb slide or bolt which will be unaffected. I'm...

    Airbrake piston heads

    Anyone used these at all? I see they have been used successfully to reduce some noise, they also look to be likely to reduce the shock forces in the gearbox. I realise they may make no difference at all to anything but I find it interesting so any experiences would be welcome.

    Asp 01 trigger mod.

    I've had a play with my trigger this morning to reduce the travel. There's alot of the travel that does nothing.  I've made it adjustable so if problems occur I can deal with it. To reduce the travel you need alter the depth of the contact surface on the main safety to allow the trigger to...

    About batteries

    I thought I would share what I've learned about batteries, lithium ones in particular. Regardless of the type of lithium cells we are using there are a few parameters that make your battery better or worse.  Voltage is just the cells voltage added together. This varies with increasing load...

    Precocking

    Does precocking give fastest trigger response, can you get close without? Is it noticeable in a game?

    CYMA MP5 SD6 thoughts

    I made the mistake of looking at some of these falling down an internet rabbit hole and ended up hanging my nose over the gun in the title. Of course I then bought one and following are my thoughts on the gun. In case you don't know what it looks...

    4S batteries

    Does anyone have any experience using 14.8v (4S) batteries. I can see there being current draw issues but I can alter the motor duty cycle to mitigate that somewhat. Perhaps someone has already fiddled around with this? Maybe with the right motor (higher impedance) it's a thing...

    Hello all

    I have just joined the forum. Been airsofting on and off for 20years I guess. Dipping my toes back in with less fitness. Am resident in Cornwall so when I've finished fiddling with my guns perhaps I'll see some of you and shoot you. Or be shot...
