The front sight looks fine without the ACOG on, so it makes me think that it is due to the glass of the ACOG making it look off. The adjustment will allow it to go completely central, but that is far from where any of the guns I've put it on are shooting, so I'm thinking that if when it is...

Hi, I've had a Theta Optics 4x32 ACOG, and before taking a break from airsoft for around a year it was working fine. Since returning, I have put the ACOG back on various RIFs and it seems to be off-centered, given how it was stored it could have had a couple of knocks. The reticle appears...

This morning I had a delivery of the parts which I thought would get everything fixed, and thankfully the piston now fits much better. I also had a look at the new piston width info in the descriptions, and I was unlucky enough to have bought the widest piston that there was, so I likely could...

I paid around £100 in December, with the intention to gut it and get a bit more practice at working on AEGs, some parts are shockingly poor, such as the gearbox screws and the body pin which holds the gearbox in which were both seemingly made of cheese from how easily the body pin deformed and...

The stock piston had one metal tooth, and the rest were plastic so I thought it would be best to go for a full metal rack piston.

Ah thank you, that seems to be the issue - I did as you said and it required quite a lot of force to move the piston within the gearbox, I then tried the stock piston which moved very easily, and then the remains of the previous piston could move but not quite as easily as the stock piston. I...

Thanks for the reply, with regards to the motor, I was considering short-stroking the sector gear by a few teeth, especially as I have bought a ported cylinder, so the last few teeth of the sector gear are not causing any extra volume in the cylinder. Would short-stroking reduce the need to go...

Hi all, I'm having some issues upgrading a Cyma M4, with the sound coming from the gearbox being quite poor. I'll give quite an in depth description of how the issue started, as it wasn't doing this from the start. I bought a Cyma CM603 for a low price in December with the intention to learn to...

Hello, this thread is basically to provide a log of what I'm doing for an MP5 project, and to see if anybody has any tips, or information about part compatibility. I recently acquired a boneyard G3 which was included with a bunch of other stuff, and decided to try and restore the gun to working...

I use NiMH for the majority of my guns, and the performance from the LiPo is without a doubt superior, but NiMH is perfectly acceptable to use provided it is working well. There is a considerable difference in rate of fire and trigger response between NiMH and LiPo, but it doesn't mean the NiMH...

Final Update: Part arrived about 12 hours ago, and after teaching myself to solder (admittedly not well), the MP5 has now been fixed (although the pesky anti reversal latch came out of place 3 times during gearbox assembly without me noticing until testing), just currently without a MOSFET, but...

I'm unsure as to which would be best, because I'm not having the best luck finding G3 parts that are in stock, and as I still don't know for sure which make it is I do not know what it is currently compatible with. I really like the looks of a G3, but if it would be way too difficult and...

Hey all, Me and a friend recently acquired what we believe to be a Classic Army (EDIT: It appears to perhaps be a JG model but I am still unsure) G3 SG1 amongst a bundle of working equipment for a low price. The reason it was so cheap, is that the gun is full of (mostly) external issues, such...

It’s the A5 so a V2 gearbox, don’t worry, thought I’d mentioned that already but I was sure to double check that they were for the correct gearbox.

Ok thanks, ordered that and I'm hoping it works, and I didn't think about the fact that the warfet would be unlikely to fit, so I'll keep looking.

So I eventually got around to taking the gearbox apart a couple of weeks ago, and found that the trigger contacts were covered in all sorts of what is presumably carbon or something like that, but the metal looked like it had slightly worn away. I reassembled the gearbox, and tested it after...

Thanks that has done the trick, relieved it was such an easy fix.

Hello all, more gun problems unfortunately.... A couple of weeks ago a group of us went to a game, and in the lead up my mate's M249 had been functioning perfectly, but when we got to the game, we put the battery in (9.6V 1600mAh NiMH), and the gun would not fire. We tested with all of our...

Hi all, I've had the Tokyo Marui MP5 High Cycle for a few years now, but around 2 years ago before I had a break from airsoft the gun started to have some issues which I have no clue how to fix, due to my lack of technical knowledge/experience with airsoft guns.  The problem is that when...
