Supporters Ian_Gere Posted January 23, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 23, 2014 Which one, matey? Sounds like a bloody good idea and a good way to get more FPS out of it on green gas. If it replicates the RS Combat kit for target sports then it'll look cool too How long is the original barrel? How long is the outer barrel into the compensator? Have a look on X-Fire for a PDI 6.01mm of the right length - it wont cost the earth for a short one. I'm very happy with the one I bought for my Scorpion - the range I'm getting out of it is impressive - easily 40m with very good accuracy, up to 10m more with barrel elevation before the accuracy gets too bad to be worth it for anything other than suppressive fire.

remus Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 current one is 11cm but am not sure how long the compensator is... its this one btw (thought id linked it...) and is for my we biohazard m9 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190878811873?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted January 23, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 23, 2014 Hmmm... I'm not so sure about that. I mean it doesn't come with an extended outer barrel and i'm not certain you can use one anyway because it looks like it is intended to move on the guide rod with the slide, unlike the usual idea where the compensator is locked to the frame and the slide moves as normal, and that threaded end looks too tight for an extended barrel to fit through. But then the 'arms' look like they're supposed to lock on to the frame, so i dunno... Call me old fashioned but I think the 92FS Combat is the sine qua non of extended pistols, even better than the KP.45 Match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remus Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 yea im not overly sure either hence why i ask but at the money im not loosing out a lot if it dosent work but from a vid or 2 i looked at it seems it should. considering the only part i dont hve 2 of is a top slide i thought i may as well try to improve it and as long as i dont wreck that its worth a shot. couldnt post a link to the site you reccomend for barrels? ill not order till it comes but i like to be prepared...

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted January 24, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 24, 2014 It would be great if there was an extended barrel with thread that screws exactly into that compensator from the rear (ooh er missus) and the loose guide rod is just for lolz. Anyhoo, x-fire home of PDI goodness. UTJ was saying they were having a free shipping event, but I don't know for how long / on what and there's nothing on the front page of the webby.

Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Free shipping was until the 15th of January,so it's long gone now Their prices are still far better than anything in the UK/Ireland though. Shipping is cheap enough too,far better than from Redwolf or most HK shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted January 24, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 24, 2014 Yeah, 1500 Yen for shipping (£8.90) - i'm pretty sure it's a flat rate for small-ish things, but you will get hit by customs just like from the USA iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remus Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 problem may be finding the correct one as the tm m9 ones have different cut to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I'd recommend the PDi Raven 6.01 Barrels,they are cheaper than the SUS304 ones as they are made out of carbon steel and have a slightly looser tolerance,but performance on them is fantastic. Some of them outperformed the SUS304s! M92f cut is on this page. http://www.x-fire.org/etop/01+.html They also have a new custom length service. http://www.x-fire.org/order/barrel/e.barrel_order.html M92F barrel window is in Hicapa cut I believe,I installed a VSR 10/Hicapa type PDi W hold on mine not long ago and it works well. I'd disassemble the hop,which is a super easy job on the KJ M9s, and check to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remus Posted January 26, 2014 Author Share Posted January 26, 2014 have to say that site annoys my head trying to read it... any english sites that do a decent selection of barrels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remus Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 compensator has arrived and it fists but is loose and rattles, but i think i can fix that via elastic bands o rings still narrowing down the barrels. according to this video the barrel im looking for is Angel Custom 6.01 155mm GBB inner barrel so hopefully i can track one down. though its strange that the compensator is so readily available and yet longer barrels arnt...

Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Angel custom barrels are not very good. I've seen reviews and pictures of jittering in machine work and overall inconstancy in quality. A good bore is crucial to performance. I'd rate PDi and Laylax as the best options,PDi even have the custom length service and everything. But it's a shame Xfire is so painful to navigate if you're not used to it.
