Supporters Esoterick Posted January 28, 2014 Supporters Posted January 28, 2014 IIRC there's a question hanging over the VFC 416 reliability, no? BTW, does anyone know if you can buy a 416 receiver on its own? Yeah I forget the specifics but some of the internals seem to give up the ghost after a couple of months, but they get hilariously mixed reviews. Hurricane make a 416 receiver kit which is meant to be pretty decent.
Sam_G Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I know a few lads that have had major issues with their VFC 416s and 417s. I have had no major issues with my VFC (not a 416) just the tappet plate broke. Other than that it is epic and i use it more than my TM SCAR.
Supporters Lozart Posted January 28, 2014 Supporters Posted January 28, 2014 Just to clarify: DEVGRU is the shorthand for United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG). Seal Team Six was officially disbanded in 1987. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Naval_Special_Warfare_Development_Group
Nickona Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I should also add it is only DEVGRU who use HK416s, all other SEAL teams use M4s as their 5.56 platform
Supporters Monty Posted January 28, 2014 Supporters Posted January 28, 2014 Where did you get the rail for the Mp5?
Cheeky vimto Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Where did you get the rail for the Mp5? Ebay from china. Full metal and only £35
Cheeky vimto Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/China-Made-Airsoft-Aluminium-Fore-Grip-Tri-Rail-Handguard-with-Cover-For-MP5-/141009815283?pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item20d4d706f3 Not sure about other makes but on the tokyo marui i had to cut some of the gun away but when the hand guard is on you can't see it. EDIT: A good point about this seller is he paid for most of my customs charges. I complained that he advertised free p&p and he refunded me £10 towards the £12 charges. Got to love the Chinese!
Supporters Monty Posted January 28, 2014 Supporters Posted January 28, 2014 I own a JG Mp5 (Marui clone) so it should fit. Thanks for linking it, how long did it take to get to you?
