Wellpro WE-23S Minigun

Is it worth using .25s?  Surely .2s would be more wallet friendly?

 

[Skara]

would you say its worth the money?

Whether it's worth the money or not is completely up to one's expectations.

To me it's worth it because I know I can turn it into a decent shooter and I'm not too fussed about looks.

It does stand out from the sea of M4s, if that's your thing and it has a certain "fear factor" when your target is quite close.

Keep in mind that for a similar expense you can get a generic M4 to fire at the same ROF, if not higher, and not have to worry too much about breaking things (and you get decent ergonomics on top of that)

Is it worth using .25s?  Surely .2s would be more wallet friendly?

Wouldn't run it on 0.2s because they just lack the performance, especially since this thing comes out at 0.7-ish joules and as of now there are no spare parts available.

Yup, WellPro pumped out a few versions, some with increased mag capacity (from 1200 to 2800 rounds), longer barrels, different grips and in one photo there seems to be a retractable stock.

Since we're here:

I ordered some slightly wider o-rings (16.5mm ID x 2mm thickness against the stock 16x2 ones)to attempt to fix the air seal.

I'm now looking at hop rubbers, usually I'd go with maple leaf but a) there's 5 and b) I only run 0.25s in this so ML is overkill, I don't need mega accuracy but I would like a few more metres of range to be on par with a half decent non r-hopped AEG.

suggestions?

AEG or VSR hop rubbers?

My usual preference in this order - flamingo - TM - G&G green

AEG rubbers and barrels.

These are pretty much the only aftermarket parts available along with the short axle motor, the rest is proprietary.
