THE TM MWS thread

I like the look of some painted guns, but I can’t bring myself to paint my own. Always seems to make the gun worth less if you come to sell it. 

 
Yeah that's what ik like too.. although when it comes to that I'll be leaving the sport I like the mws too much for selling ? 

I ordered the grip a couple of years ago when I was just starting airsoft and purchased the wrong one not knowing... RS on an aeg dont work....

But for the mws I just undid the bolt grip off put the new one on and bolted it up... it was just a tighter fit over the stock grip and yes also agree to the thin side but I always wear gloves.. bb to the fingers and hands in cqb building clearance isn't so nice :)

think I'll wait it out until I get some proper wear on her the  I'll give her a tidy up spray ?? cheers guys

I'm like you i would not paint any of my guns from anything other than stock. Most guns i've see people DIY paint look bad (in my opinion) some people don't even strip the gun for painting.

The only gun i ever owned that i painted was a KWA Kriss Vector that i got second hand, previous seller failed to mention that it was a two tone that he had spray painted black, and poorly at that. I stripped it down to bare parts, carefully prepped and primed the parts that needed painting. Two coats of primer, followed by 4 light coats of paint sanded in between and then two further coats of lacquer later, each coat had 24 hours drying period in between. I had a two tone sparkling black and bronze Vector. Sold it a year later, ive been keeping my eye out for it to see if it ever crops up on the market again.

But in general i never paint my guns and do my best to keep them looking stock colour.

As for RS on my MWS i have a real steel Magpul MOE-SL Stock and MOE grip, Magpul sling point and sling.

 
Hi guys I am just checking before I make a mistake but will RS charging handles and sling plates fit the MWS? Im most likely looking at a pts charging handle and angry gun sling plate regardless but half this hobby is looking at stuff to buy right???

Dont think any rs charging handle will work with the m4. Afaik pts and angry gun is a airsoft company. I'm using the pts raptor charging handle on mine. 

 
need some help guys,

the question is...

to paint or not to paint?

and if I should paint, In what style?

thanks in advance :)

I wouldn't paint it. The style of it suits the clean look much better. Nothing wrong with adding some more tan though like with grips, rail covers or even the scope mount 

 
Has anyone had any luck with a red dot sight sub £100, something that will keep it's zeroing. Want to see if there's any alternatives before I purchase a Vortex (I've already got a 3-9x50 for my M40) I know they're spot on just don't have the upfront for one at the moment... Also PEQ recommendations? been looking at DBALs and the like just wanted some opinions... looking for something where the laser will hold it's zero.

Personally I like a painted gun, but I wouldn't go painting a cerokoted mws though. Leave that for the cheaper poorly finished guns. I use

https://www.freedomstencils.com/

They're not cheap but give a nice finish in my opinion. Here's some examples I've done with krylon matt finish sprays. Taken to bare metal, primed, sprayed and clear coated at the end. That's my 2 cents.

I'm looking to get an original 10" barrel for my one of these as I only have the 14.5" and an aftermarket 16". 

Anyone ok to part with theirs?

Are you looking for the inner and outer Barrel and the hand guard etc? I have an TM inner barrel (I have 2 in fact) and a hand guard plus fittings. I can't help you with the outer though.

I am looking for an outer barrel sadly.

Welcome! and that is one sexy gun!

I really like the rail mind telling me where you get that from? and how long is the rail roughly? I am thinking of using this rail with a silencer what do you think?

I have the BAD lever as well but the weird thing is after installing the bad lever the bolt catch doesn't work consistently. I tried following the advice of one of the fellow members here but that didnt solve the problem for me :(

If memory serves, it came directly from APS but I'm not sure you can order it as a standalone item so you might struggle to obtain it.

Get the rail from here. It's a 12.5" https://www.ptssyndicate.com/products/pts-centurion-arms-cmr-rail-125-gen-2

The bad lever does affect the bolt catch and it's something I might well remove... Looks badass never the less. Haha. If your going to run a silencer you should get the b&t https://www.airsoftworld.net/bandt-rotex-iii-quick-detach-suppressor-grey.html I have the short one in grey and it's beautiful. Again added realism over a generic screw on 'airsoft suppresor'.

See photo with it on my Systema. Plus other Gucci stuff like my thermal sight, vortex light hunter and it's goodies ?
