What needs to be done (if anything) to maintain hi-cap magazines, and ideally, to prevent several BBs jamming against each other where they are first picked up by the cogs/wheel?

Expand  

Nothing needs to be done.  Do NOT spray any lubricant into the magazine.

If its not feeding properly then there is a problem with the mechanism and may need disassembly.

I need to find an xt60 to mini tamiya for charging my LiPo, sick and tired of using dangerous crocodile clips.

I bought this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XT60-Female-To-Mini-Tamiya-Male-Charge-Battery-Lead-Adapter-Airsoft-Drone-/161253091245?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item258b6ee7ad

 

my problem with it is when I connect the xt60 to the plugs for my charger all goes well however when I connect it to my battery, the only way it will go in is with the black where the red should be if that makes any sense. Its probably something really stupid however obviously I can't charge like that, and the mini tamiya seems to be the same way round with the picture. What is wrong?

Expand  

Personally, instead of finding an adapter I would opt for changing out the connector itself (probably to deans)

Hi all, can you buy a tracer unit for G&G - GC16 Wild Hog 7" with Keymod Rail, ETU & MOSFET (Full Metal

 

of so what is the best one to buy 

 

thanks 

[simonh]

If it has a removable flash hider then most 14mm ccw tracer units should fit, otherwise you need something hop based

It has a 14mm CCW thread so yes. You might have to check the stock muzzle device to see if it has a grub screw that secures it in place before you unscrew it.

Bear in mind that the flash hider on that goes inside the handguard. You'll need to make sure that whatever tracer unit you get is no bigger diameter than will fit inside the same space.

Does anyone have any info on the King Arms Predator Shrike II 1911s? Appears to be very little on the forum except one (or maybe two) people posting a one liner about how it wasn't great then not elaborating further.

I was looking at getting a KJW 1911 MEU when this caught my eye so now trying to decide between the two.

[Anonymoose]

Anyone know if a VFC MP5 lower can be fitted to a VFC G3A3? Only obvious difference is the length of the "tail" behind the grip.

 

 

I think it'll fit, but don't want to gamble £100+ on it.

I need to rewire a v2 gearbox with a perun hybrid fitted. What wire do people use for this? I can see patrolbase do 2m of silver coated wire for £13 but I'm betting you can buy the same / similar thing from b&q at a fraction of the cost.

Are any of the SMERSH rigs on Aliexpress any good?

Ordered some wires from ak2m4. They will definitely be fine for this and a lot cheaper than PB

Realistically, what's the longest barrel worth having on a typical AEG assault rifle? Is it worth going much over 300/350mm?

Expand  

 

Less than 200mm is going to be less than accurate (yeah yeah "muh MK23" I know), as for longest? Much more than 300mm depends on what FPS you're running. I'd rather haver a decent quality 300mm in whatever length outer takes my fancy than trying to match the inner to the outer on a full length M14. Remember that the volume of the cylinder/swept area needs to match up with your barrel length whatever length you do go with.

 

What's the use case?

This is more complicated than i anticipated.. 😂

 

I'm looking at a TM NGRS SCAR-L, just as a general assault rifle, not for CQB or DMR use. Apparently you can go to 365mm with the standard outer barrel length (which i'd keep) whereas it comes with a 300mm barrel as standard.

Should be acceptable enough for airsoft use.  The weird thing is that quite a few of the Syrian rebels, making good progress at the moment, are using Smersh webbing.  Think they sourced theirs from the Far East rather than Russia.
