Lol, I was gonna do the whole "they make them so their robust & can handle being dropped multiple times", but thought it would be bad taste, you've said it so much better 👍😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cromulon1994 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 A king arms SAA came today. Have to be honest, it's not a patch on the schofield. Bear in mind this is supposed to be new, and the schofield has thousands of shots through it now, the schofield is still much tighter. And I'm not sure I like the finish of the saa at all. I don't know whether I'll keep it as is and use it as a close range ditch weapon in an off hand holster, r hop it or just get rid. I've only got 144a gas so that may be the issue. Also some aps shotgun shells came for the coach gun. Never used them or seen them used first hand. Phwoar, they piss all over madbull type shells.

Popular Post Cromulon1994 Posted April 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2020 Re converted the denix to aps shells. They're so much better than pps/madbull type ones. Will probably still fire pps shells but they all now refuse to re set. Re did the wood. Cant wait to shoot it in anger now.

Moderators Tackle Posted April 21, 2020 Moderators Share Posted April 21, 2020 Yep, internally, good job, but gotta agree externally it's hideous, why have such an iconic & rare design & then spoil it with attachments & tape. literally sometimes less is more 😏 paradoxum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have weathered it quite a bit to try and make it look more screen-accurate which I think turned out really nice, and the grip tape on the stock helps with shoulder comfort and just gripping the ..grip. You guys haven't even seen pics of when I bolted a long 20slot rail to the top and slapped an eotech replica on top of it. the gap between the 'handle' is enough to aim with so I ditched that idea almost immediately.

Supporters SeniorSpaz87 Posted April 21, 2020 Supporters Share Posted April 21, 2020 Finally finished my Daewoo K2. I went the opposite route of @mightyjebus and @HuttArmouries and HPA'd mine - only because I dont have the money nor care to build up a good AEG gearbox right now and I do have a spare Polarstar Fusion Engine lying around. I added a real steel Stormwerkz K2 rail because I hate iron sights, a Vortex Sparc2 on a Rogers Riser, a Rogers Rail Light since there was still some room on the rail, and a Phantom flash hider, simply because thats the closest one I could find to what the K2s in service have on them. I was forced to use the less than ideal but still OK hop unit from the K2 as it is too tight for my spare Maxx, ProWin, or really any standard AR hop unit, but its got my spare barrel, bucking, and flat hop from my SR-25 so it should have some good range.

mightyjebus Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 That looks good. The K2 always reminds me of a cross between an AR10, a M16 and a FNC. I'm tempted to build a K2 as well and I see that you can get a metal upper and lower receiver for the K". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted April 22, 2020 Mostly Retired Moderators Share Posted April 22, 2020 Specna Arms H20. Settled on the aesthetics now. It's... Taken some "breaking in" shall we say. A few teething problems out of the box, but it's all sorted now, thanks to a Gate USB link and an armorers wrench 😂 I've decided I fucking hate the CTR Stock though. Looks lovely, but getting it off and on and needing Allen keys to get to the battery. Get off. EPS supremacy! ... anyone want to buy a cheap CTR? lukeB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
