THE TM MWS thread

[Shamal]

What would be useful would be some heated covers for gas mags.or heated pouches for chest rigs?

Regards

Heated pouches on a chest rig? ?

You'd sweat like a mad donkey on heat and then pass out mid game ?

 

[jsmithski]

You can use hand warmers. They are chemical substances in a small bag that generate heat when squeezed. You can stick them to the pouch.

 

[RMDavis]

In my opinion heating the mags is pointless...

It doesn't take many shots combined with those low ambient temperatures to bring that mag resembling something like an ice pack! ?

 

[Davegolf]

Best thing to do is rotate your mags so they have longer to settle down before you use it again (assuming 2 BB loads per gas fill)

Anyone tried these rubber covers with TM MWS mags?

just ordered 2 in black with a more simple design. I’m planning to use them on my 20 rounders to make them look like short pmags. I’ll also be taking off the “ranger plate” and cut a hole for gas filling.

Is a gap between the upper and lower receiver normal?  it’s only small like 0.5-1mm but from a certain angle I can see the trigger mechanism through it.

Yup that’s normal. It can’t be helped. Also in time the gap may increase a little bit more.  Don’t worry about it.

Hi folks

Unrelated to the stuff above but I have  an mtr. It has started suffering from the occasional missfeed. The Bb gets jammed in between the nozzle and hop unit. 
 

everything is stock and I have tried to resolve the issue by following the cleaning guide at the start of the thread. I have also checked the spring inside the nozzle and it’s fine.

any ideas? 
 

cheers 

 

[Hypokondrikern]

@Whereismyhammer I can only think of poor BB quality

Edit. try other bbs and make sure there is no junk or debris in the magazine which blocks or hinders the feeding of bbs. 

 

[Hypokondrikern]

I can’t really decide what route to go for.

[Whereismyhammer]

Thanks. I’m using the nurpol .30’s I will try a different brand. Any suggestions?

 

[Davegolf]

@Whereismyhammer check the bucking feed lip is in good condition, check the nozzle is not damaged; particularly the little tab that picks the BB up and the hole/front leading edge.

Geoff’s or Devil blaster or Green Devil are all high quality ammo.

 

[Whereismyhammer]

Thanks for the info. I will have a look. If it looks a bit sus I will upload a picture. 

 

[Davegolf]

Also check if the problem is just one mag causing the issue, it may have damaged feed lips.

@Hypokondrikern surely it’s down to your play style, both could be useful if your at assault FPS levels, MRO for active gaming upto medium ranges, and the short dot for more sneaky play / medium long ranges.

Def the latter if you are at DMR FPS.

Got these two bits from Redwolf in HK. A spare Marui nozzle (rare as rocking horse poop) and a G&P valve. I’ll stick that into the G&P bolt to see if I can tame it’s it was running way too hot for my liking. 
 

Postage took 4 week using  airmail so didn’t mind the wait.  Cheap as chips too using that option. 
 

Happy days.

Now then MWS tribe, 

Can anybody share any experience that they've had with this particular part as I'm thinking of swapping out the original as I'm still not happy with my bolt lock reliability.  I'm going to wait to buy the ag maritime bolt catch before fighting with the trigger box removal again (someone please tell me that gets easier) as I plan on doing both in a one-year.

Cheers crew!

Using hao lightweight bolt TM weight and GnP buffer (empty) on mapp gas now.

I bought a set made by Gunsmodify from Red wolf airsoft. This set has served me well. P.S Redwolf has quite a lot of other parts as well which might be of interest. Otherwise go check out Rainbow8.com 

Did anyone try the lightweight bolt stop plates from Angry gun and Gunsmodify? 

Did you get a lightweight bolts top plate to try?

First iteration of a rail nut spanner for the TM mk18

(the one with the central cut away is for a peace of 4mm key steel)
