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.

Cool, I may take a punt then.

 

As far as Syrian rebels go, there's been quite a bit of Russian "activity" in the region for a long time so there's every chance their gear is *ahem* surplus.

Dumb question about batteries:

 

Is there any issue in running 2 batteries in parallel? I can't see why there would be, but maybe there's something specific about AEGs i don't know.

 

(Marui NGRS M4 with Li-Po instead of proprietry crane/SOPMOD battery.)

That's a fair point. Some of the far Eastern made stuff had some interesting takes. Seen variants coming with Cobra style buckles and loops.

If you do go down the route, let us know how you get on with it. Imagine the original Russian stuff is not going to get any easier to obtain with the various Geopolitical developments of the last few years.

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.

I was thinking the same thing and it is really complicated haha! There is this thread and it gets quite technical...too much for my simple brain! 🤣 Still non the wiser!

Asking for both AEGs and GBBRs:

 

Is there any inherent problem that would arise from storing RIFs with the upper and lower receiver split so they take up less space?

 

For context, I am looking at the possibility of splitting the upper and lower on both my M4's and storing them strapped to a rigid molle panel in the lid of a Pelican 1650, rather than laying them on top of all my other gear.

 

Other than the obvious issues of dust, debris, internal parts potentially getting damaged etc which should be minimised by them being in the case - is there anything else I need to look out for? I may well just be overthinking this.

[BigStew]

Risks to storing guns would be debris getting in to the gun, moisture causing corrosion and or mold and the opposite rubber parts lubricants drying out.

Does anyone know how to modify a scorpion evo to shoot semi only? The only way I've seen to do it is to install the jefftron leviathan mosfet. Is that the only way?

Thinking of so many terrible answers. Must not troll. Only good answer is spring crop or changing the spring.

I knew that you have to change springs/ cut them , but i didn't know about m95 ,  m100 springs etc  . But thank you for the help.

[heroshark]

Well an m100 should be about right but you never know this is the thing an cropping a spring depends on how you eye it up as a tech and that is far from an exact science.

Depending on the toy in question (regarding the quality of the metal used for the spring) and if you are going to the bother of removing the spring anyway I would invest in some threaded rod and 2 nuts. Compress the spring on the rod using the nuts and leave it for a week. I will be very surprised if this does not bring it down to the required power.  I now do this myself as by cutting new springs in the past they then "bed in" and come in way under the power I was aiming for.

I’m looking for high-quality, durable long stickers that say "Coyote." I’ve checked eBay, but I’d love to hear any recommendations on where to buy them. Has anyone here had experience with stickers that really stick well, especially for use on a downhill bike? Thanks!
