Where to get this part?

Hi all,

Please see the attached explosion diagram for G&G warthog - i require the bolt/washer circled in the diagram but am unsure of the length/size needed. (kept coming loose and fell out!)

Cheers

Oooooh that is a special order part that.....

nah - it is a M5 threaded bolt aprox 40mm to 60mm

it varies coz some stock tubes & the rear "lug" the tube mounts onto vary

the rear mount for the stock tube can stick out 1 inch or 2 inches etc.....

so I'd say measure the lug or mount for the tube eg: 40mm & add on about 20mm and it should be about right

failing that careful cutting to suit & clean the thread ok with a m5 nut before fitting if no m5 tap

ahh f*ck it just buy a few lengths - cross head jap/dome/button bolts or something

fleabay or B&Q or hardware store but it is M5 thread is the answer to your question

oh and a m5 washer - pref slit spring washer I think

Legendary sir!

Will go and buy a bulk load and play till i get it right, was very annoying mid-battle the gun butt going "wobbley"!!!

aye a wobbly butt can be very annoying in battle

I tend to go for fixed tight one myself - a fixed stubby stock I mean

not adjustable but almost any battery will go there than squeeze in nunchuck type batteries

really need to make a medium fixed stock imho

a stubby is great for a firehawk but too short of regular guns

a full size fixed stock is a tad too long for me I feel

think G&G really need to make a medium Raider with a medium fixed stock

and screw all the wobbly bits & messing about with battery options - but hey ho

some other guns have a stock that isn't adjustable and you just deal with it

but the subby & full are a smidge too short/long sometimes - hey ho as I said

happy hunting & you will soon have a firmer butt/stock

if it wobbles a bit too much slip some tape - electricians or bit off gaffa/duct tape on stock tube

that should reduce any crane stock wobble that occurs sometimes
