Hi Guys! 

 

I recently ordered a TM MK23 Pistol, it arrived today and i've been doing some shooting practice and I have a lot of questions if any of your MK23 experts are able to help out!

 

1. What upgrades should I go for? such as inner barrels and lengths, and which ones are the most important?

2. What weight bb's should I go for in the stock MK23 for the time being, and what sort of weights should I use when it's upgraded?

3. What gas should I use to get the most performance without standing the risk of doing any damage to the slide like people say green gas will.

 

Thank you guys, I'm loving this pistol so far but I definitely do want to upgrade it in the future!

Also - what upgrades do you guys run and why?

I went for a crazy jet barrel that came to the end of the outer, maple leaf decepticon 50 bucking, maple leaf I key and hadron design TDC mod. 

 

I run anything from .36-.45 Geoff’s BB’s and it’s ran on propane. Apparently mk23 mags don’t like propane but I haven’t had any issues. You don’t need to worry about the slide because it isn’t blow back.

Ah I see, what sort of range do you get compared to stock and also did you have to file down that inner part of the hop up container? that's what i'm worried about! doesn't seem natural to me, did the upgrades have a big benefit?

Only thing I remember filing down was the end of the outer barrel because it narrows slightly. Just need to make it wider with a drill to fit the last 10mm of barrel through.

 

i was getting BB’s out to 75m with a range finder with .43. Never tested the standard one properly, but it’s well over double the range of my Tm g18c

There are several topics for the Mk23, the search tool has a 3 character minimum length, and you will get some useful results:

 

 

I bought my Crazy Jet barrel from skirmshop, the Dutch one, and now also a UK based site, see Places to Buy section for both.
