Urgh that might cause problems tomorrow night then! 

 

If you play at CQB sites (especially in the UK) most know how to chrono a tri-shot. Maybe call or message them or something and just confirm its fine before hand so you dont turn up can not be able to play.

Ah cool, ive seen people play with them there before so sure it'll be fine. Usually run pistols so will have a back up or three! 

@GothicGhost i bet thats actually quite effective camo in use!

 

Finally got around to assembling the G36C, on the whole very happy with the build, although i think im going to have to swap the X-ASR for a Pico AAB, the internal rollback noise of the gears to the anti reversal latch drives me mad on semi!!

 

 

 

Of all the colours i feel the FDE on the mags is the least effective, its too bright i feel, ive got some good ol' Humbrol Dark brown (FDE) aerosol which il prop spritz them with as its such an awesome FDE in use.

 

The whole layout of the gun colouring was to blend with myself / Pencott Greenzone at the rear of the gun, and wrapping the gun around trees/fortifications/dirt etc at the front end.

A WWII duo... Double Bell K98k Real Wood and CYMA M1928. Amazing what adding a sling can do for authenticity. 

 

 

Some of you may remember my dad's airsoft bow project. Well unsurprisingly he never finished it but he's decided to pick it back up and rework it using his new knowledge and experience. Then someone suggested putting a trishot barrel on it so obviously now we have to do it. Just need to get our hands on a boneyard shotty for the hop up and feed system...

That's excellent, been thinking about doing one myself for some time, I'd better get on Wish & sort out a bow ?

Do it! Get a low weight children's bow. When he did the maths on the energy output, this stupidly cheap children's compound bow has an energy output of around 24J so it only needs to be around 10% efficient to get 500fps. The trick is getting a safe energy output without it breaking

So freakin cool, I think they def need to be classified as sniper / 500 / med."

This is the best part. It's tunable so I could take it to a woodland game and play as a sniper then adjust the cylinder volume or string tension and run around in a cqb game sub 350fps like fucking Legolas

Legolas! ?

Yeh if only!! Just need 600 yrs of Elvish experience and insane senses

Ok maybe more like a dick with a stick

Hold on.

Didn't someone already make an airsoft bow thingy some time ago?

Really got me thinking, once it's set up I could fit a mechanical stop, maybe 2 or 3 settings according to the FPS needed at the time ?

?

Yeah but it was stupid money, like £500+ or something ?

In this case the bow already comes with that built in. The cams are adjustable to change the draw strength and length and the hold strength 

 

Also this one actually has a hop up and changeable magazines so is already a lot more usable

For anyone interested here's the bow he's using. If this works he's hoping to sell the files and a parts kit

Thats a pretty high comendation then! Thanks!

Waiting on an FDE MRO cover, the Pico AAB arrived today ?

 

It never really gets taken out of the case much, but it still takes good glamour shots ?

Aside, how do you chrono a tri-shot?   The Depot doesn't, they've waved me through several times, with variants of "Sod that, we've never seen a springer come close to 350fps anyway".  Put one BB in since each piston is separate?

I had one site quote my aa12 was at like 450fps or something. But every other place gave a reading as roughly what you might expect. No idea on what chronographs were used so not much help but there you go.

G&P MOE repainted with graphite grey engine paint, Octarms 13" rail and over-barrel carbon fibre moderator. Camo Krylon stripped from the rest of it.

 

Internally I have put in a non-wobbly spring guide and M105 spring (minus 1 coil!) to give me 292fps on 0.28g BBs. Still got the Titan basic and SHS gears.

 

PEQ box for the battery as the MOE handguard was a nightmare and looking a bit old skool. Waiting on BCM rail covers in grey and maybe one of their hand stops if I can find one in the UK as US shops refuse to post due to ITAR regs ?
