Wild Weasel Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Now them team mws, I'm struggling a little bit with my cold weather operation, I know this has been covered before and I'm currently at page 57 rereading the entire thread, in the meantime can anybody give me some tips to get better cold-weather performance out of my mws? My current setup is the following. Hao Econoline geissele bolt Ag MPA nozzle with Ra tech BLK npas ML Mr hop 60° with six g nub TM oem 250mm barrel C&c maritime bolt catch G&g V2 buffer (empty) with dollar coin and 23mm tap washer to shorten stroke (to prevent lower receiver strike from over-travel) Hao 9.3" urgi handguard with BCM foregrip Magpul CTR stock Bcm gunfighter mod 3 pistol grip. Vortex crossfire RDS. Shooting Geoff's .3's bio bb's with rothenberger mapp+ gas. Last shoot she was severely underpowered, barely able to cycle with an FPS of around 200fps on .2's - I've subsequently noticed that the buffer sealing ring made by angry gun was dragging a lot on the inside of the bolt carrier group as it had swelled and become baggy I don't know if this was the cause what are your thoughts? Cheers. Second question of the day, I appear to have developed some scoring on the inside of my buffer tube since using the hao Econoline bolt carrier. I'm thinking of replacing the buffer tube with the the G&P roller buffer tube set will this prevent the scoring and what are the improvements of the roller buffer tube please?

Hypokondrikern Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 @Wild Weasel Not to disappoint you but my consensus is to avoid all Angry Gun products as for now. There have just been so many problems reported in this thread over the years that some way or another cooked down to blaming a new Angry Gun part. Anyway, lets see if we can get that rifle up and running. I'd carefully file and round the inner edges of the buffertube to pose less friction as the BCG moves through. That is what I have done. I also invested in the bcg roller end but that was mostly for the satisfying sound. Hope that helps. Wild Weasel and Tom_84 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mws002 on order from Airsoft tiger, angry gun nozzle despite being rather nice polymer and having the guts replaced with npas etc - removed and replaced with a TM original nozzle, dp enhanced sealing buffer. Fitting a new npas on the way from emperion and to top it all off a new 60° Autobot hop rubber. I just want to say, she didn't jack on me and fail, she was just struggling. I'll look into filing the lip on the buffer tube but due to the scoring involved I think I'll just replace. What can you tell me about the roller buffer as it looks a damn good idea. Does it take the pressure off of that wheel at the bottom of the bolt? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davegolf Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Regardless of the temperature for efficiency and consistency you want to be using the smallest amount of gas possible to propel the BB at your desired FPS and reliably cycle the system ready for the next shot. What does this come down to? Air seals, Friction and Weight of dynamic parts, Work effort and Stability of materials in different temperatures. Air seals; Gas tight mag obv. Healthy gas route seal in mag. Mating fully with nozzle entry. Nozzle fully sealed in bucking. Air tight bucking. Floating valve closing fast and sealing. Piston lid seal that reacts fast, but doesn’t drag. BCG turning off the gas knocker, properly in time - not too early or late. Friction - freely moving, minimal contact, not side loading; Floating valve. Nozzle. Bolt. Buffer. Buffer spring. Weight of dynamic parts; Lightest nozzle, bolt, buffer. Work effort; A bucking that is too tight will hold the nozzle firmly requiring more effort to pull it out. A nozzle that isn’t free in the bolt or BBU will do the same. A piston lid seal that is too big or binding will also increase effort. A bolt that is poorly made will side load the receiver or buffer tube @Wild Weasel. Increased weight of dynamic parts. Stronger buffer springs. Materials like nylon etc have massive dimensional changes for small temperature changes, materials like these are best avoided. As a general rule all parts ‘flowing’ gas should be of high quality plastics to maintain the intended dimensions and best resist the effects of icing. Pretty much everything above could be broken down further. The short fix is the stock TM design is very good. Non of the buffer parts need to be ‘upgraded’, the buffer is very light in TM plastic, and the spring is suitable for all UK assault FPS (300-350). Yes fit a lightweight CNC bolt, the UAC ones are a nice fit. The stock nozzle and piston lid seal are fine, as is the stock bucking (within reason). Yes fit an NPAS or similar, plastic please, mod the TM one ideally. PS sorry you didn’t get around to actually doing your testing!

Hypokondrikern Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) @Wild Weasel It's really hard to give a true verdict with the lockdown and all as I have only shot it a few times in my studio to test a mag. But the sheer manipulation of the rifle, charging and clearing it is much more responsive. The brass rollers are a bit worrisome to me. Only time will tell if they are made of a good metal or not. Anyway, the best thing is the sound especially with the UAC or Gunsmodify alu BCG and the rounded buffertube edge. Crisp!

Dave, can you brief me on where this is to be used? Could I lube mags with them? I have recently used silicon grease with good results but I have heard that residues can make it to the hop whereas the Gunsav supposedly stays put.

Davegolf Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Yes TechT on all your magazine O rings, and the piston lid seal. Gun oil on trigger set, and BCG to receiver PS you can generally wipe down the externals and clean all non rubber/silicone parts with the gun oil too. It serves as a cleaning agent, anti corrosion and lube all in one. Hypokondrikern, Shepsy and GothicGhost 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypokondrikern Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Thanks, I have so far only used silicon oil of different densities with good result. Grease for leaks, thick oil for trigger unit and spray for bcg + o-rings. I remember using lithium grease for the trigger mechanism in a KC02 several years back but I got allergic reactions from it. I'll try the TechT and the gun oil and see how that is. Maybe some disposable gloves as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I went for the G&p buffer is the top screws of the BCG were smashing into the buffer threads on the lower receiver so I was advised to pack it out with a dollar coin and a 23mm tap washer to prevent over-travel and the buffer to prevent bolt bounce. With regards to the hao bolt I'm shelving it as an emergency spare as I did not get these problems with the TM BCG. I think I will give the roller bolt weight a go as it hopefully will smooth out the cyclic action. Once again I'll let you know how I get on. Cheers for the answers everyone.

Expand @TadsJ2 I am currently using abbey predator/vertex for colder days and have used propane but runs too hot. The valve is recessed quite deep in the mag, is the gas nozzle all the way in when you are filling, the abbey nozzles fit nicely. In order to fully fill a magazine, you should be getting nothing spitting out until the last couple of bursts. Once you get a little liquid coming out, stop. Leave it for 10 seconds or so, then give it one last fill. From that you should get 2 full mags plus another 20+ shots. Angle is everything when engaging the gas can nozzle with the mag. It is not vertical but about 20 degrees to the base plate angled towards the front of the mag. If you fill vertically it will spray liquid everywhere. I have some we x3 red and the metal nozzle of the can doesn’t seat as well with the mag, you have to give it a wiggle in angle until it seats and then it works without spitting gas everywhere. Abbey’s nozzles are narrower internally and externally. As for taking the o rings out, never done it so wouldn’t like to comment. @Davegolf Yes I meant no o-rings or green gas mod as all my mags are v2.
