THE TM MWS thread

I’m looking to buy a MWS and trying to decide wether or not buy a stock gun and start buying parts or a G&P Strike Industries MWS (which looks like what I want).

This one at airsoft tiger 111hk

Does anyone have any experience of this version of the MWS? I can’t seem to find any reviews or anything. Wondering if it’s just externals or also internal upgrades in it?

thanks MWS legends!
Good grief man don’t do it. It looks like a NERF toy gun you’d buy from a toy store ?

Personally I’d buy a stock MWS and then tart it up in a more tasteful manner. At least you know that the receivers will mesh properly with the internals. After market upper and lower receivers may not be made with the same tolerances as the Marui receivers so you may run into potential performance issues. 

 
Guaranteed you will not have the full MWS experience if you buy a gun with that many mods.

Get a stock one, get trades lasered or machined in if you want them, and as @AlphaBear said, just swap out externals if you want.

Do not change from the stock recievers, buffer tube or 90% of the internals.

Rails, stocks, hand guards, selectors, sights - eat your heart out.

For that sort of money just buy a regular MWS, change the stock / rails / grip and get any bits you fancy Cerakoted in a suitable pimpy colour :)

 
Hi guys,

I’m currently trying to source another SixG brass super nub. I already own one in my first MWS and really want another for my second build I’m about to do. 
 

I’ve tried contacting the guy(s?) over at SixG gunsmithing but haven’t got a reply. I’ve been made aware that this isn’t their main source of income/day job and take a while to respond. It’s been almost two weeks but I simply don’t want to be inconsiderate and bug them with further emails given the circumstances stated above…

With that, I don’t suppose someone on here can help sort me out with one? Or at this point, recommend any alternatives that would be as good as the brass nub? Would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks in advance

I just got a reply this morning - may be he does them in batches?

 
Hello folks.

I’m having pretty consistent bolt lock problems on all three of my mws’s. I’ve moved the stock tube back as suggested in baddabing’s video but still the problem persists. Any suggestions on parts or modifications that would make my rifles lockback more reliably.

Check the little catch on the mag is moving smoothly. Press down the bb follower then check that the little catch at the back of the mag moves up and down smoothly. It is easy for dirt to get in there and make it sticky.

I have had some that were sluggish due to dirt and another where the corner of the mag was bent inwards half a mm and stopping it moving at all!

 
Ordered a mk16 rail from Hao directly, took a week to arrive from Taiwan.

Finally got the guts to open up the mws, installed a sixg brass nub and fitted the new rail (not too bad to fit, even for a complete novice with gbbrs).

Really happy with how it’s looking now.

Looking good ?? My Hao rail has just been delivered after ordering it in May, so looking forward to getting it fitted. 

Did you need any barrel shims or is it a good fit?

Went straight on. Probably about as easy as changing a ris rail would ever be.

There was a shim that came with the barrel nut (which I’d not noticed when I opened the box, and had lost, for a bit). 
Once you’ve got the gold coloured shim on, the nut screws straight on and then you slip the rail over it. Tighten the grub screws and push the two bolts in.

It was pretty easy. Worst thing for me was disassembling the mws itself, everything was threadlocked so needed a bit of welly to get it all apart.

That's good to hear. Already had my MWS apart to fit the brass nub, so I'm good to go I think.

Mine wasn't threadlocked or if it was my heavy handedness has been an advantage for a change. 

Just need some M-lok bits and bobs now. 

 
Hi all, I have the g&p V2 buffer but it is too tight in the stock Marui buffer tube, I don’t really wanna modify the buffer so would any other tube fit the V2 buffer? 

 
I just received my brand new MWS and unboxed it. Noticed there's quite a bit of play between the upper and the lower receiver. The upper does not sit tight against the lower.. Is there anything one can do to remedy this and make it abit tighter?

 
There is always a very small amount of play, if you feel this is excessive then maybe return it for refund and buy another.

Lemons are few and far between but they do happen.

They are never ‘smash the pins in VFC tight’.

 
For the hive mind - I am buying an MWS and like the size of the CQBR. Any pitfalls I should be aware of vs the M4A1 or MK18??
