Ive had mine for years. It leaves a witness mark on the rubber but no cuts.
Whichever you choose, spares.
You may well be right there. I have ( internally) a bone stock MWS bar the Six-G nub. Its had around 13000 rounds through it so far and I feel it is properly bed in now. I used it sunday. The trigger feels locked in now, Perfect wall and crisp break. The bbs seem to be shooting straighter than ever. Super consistent. Whilst in spawn before game starts I was able to aim at random bbs on the floor a good 5 - 10 meters away and hit them in 1-3 shots. And at around 30 meters able to hit things around 2inch square consistently. That's more than accurate enough for me. They really do seem to get better after around 10k rounds.
That's just reminded me I missed one other internal mod. An RA tech NPAS. Allows to tune power up and down based on temperature. I can still get 350fps in winter (indoors in a unheated warehouse) on standard green gas.
I have thought about an NPAS, so will probably add it to the list. Good shout.
Nothing should 'need' to be modded, to run higher power gas. I run mine on ZeroOne gas or currently vorsk V8 as I ran out of ZO. Supposedly you will eventually need to replace the nozzle return spring as this is likely to be the first thing to give from higher powered gas. I'm at around 13k rounds all with standard UK powered gas, Not 144a and yet to have anything break.
I more mean, the mags just won't take regular gas. I trust the internals of the gun itself to handle regular gas, but in the mags there seems to be some kind of valve that just doesn't allow for it. No matter the fill amount or technique, it just vents it and then only fires like half a mag in semi, or essentially just a burst on auto.
Sorry I'm with you. Mine are v2 and no issues. Like mentioned could be the nozzle of the gas can. Some brands are quite short and only just fit. You can get a little nozzle extension... maybe worth a try. From experience. Abbey and ZO (made by abbey) are on the short side and when filling the rim where the cap attaches the can touches the mag. But vorsk are much longer and easily reach into the valve without the rim touching the mag.
Dave, which gas are u using at which temperatures?
I have several MWS and I run them on sniper gas in the summer(no silicone to contaminate the hop) which is slightly stronger than green. One of my rifles, a MK16 DMR runs at 2.2J (RIFT airsoft have a 2.32J limit for DMRs) and it has had no internal modifications apart from Laylax hop unit, Laylax barrel, TNT bucking and Omega nub. I have bought an uprated Eagle6 spring set which I have not yet fitted, and so far nothing has broken. One of my other MWS and Archwick L119, is internally Guns Modify, and I have had no problems with it yet on Sniper gas. During the recent winter with temperatures around zero I ran both rifles on MAPP gas (strong black gas) with no issues. However I would say it would be wise to upgrade the spring set, as this costs little, and in the summer maybe use a stronger buffer setup.
Are people still recommending to run gas without silicone in it? I used to order gas from airsoft entrepôt but not sure if I still should.
