If you use ‘clean’ propane and just lube the gun manually every now and then you end up saving money on gas, having the gun perform better and not run the risk of a buildup of silicone oil in the bucking/ barrel. Ive ran all of my GBBR’s including 7 MWS’ and a few TM pistols on propane near exclusively without issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawyer Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Just ordered a propane adaptor. Tried to get the original all plastic airsoft innovation one, but could only get the new steel nozzled one they make. Guess I'll have to be careful with my fill valves.

I've got both, & tbh the earlier plastic one definitely works better . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried the little plastic extender nozzle it seems to come with, does that make it any better? If I could find an OG adaptor I'd buy one 🙁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t put airsoft green gas in any of my guns unless I was desperate I'd heard this elsewhere before. It makes sense that it's a more pronounced issue on the less gas efficient systems. For all the complaints people have about the WE M4s they still have a lot of fans and part support. Obviously they seem to need more work than a GHK or MWS in order to be not as good but I never go to a game without a backup gun so if it has a bad day it doesn't mean I have to. Until TM pull there finger out and start making other MWS platforms it may be my best bet for a gas ACR. Plus like I said if I pick it up second hand and don't get on with it I can sell it on for a minimal loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PopRocket123 Posted November 26, 2019 Author Share Posted November 26, 2019 I keep seeing those two GHK Sig 553s in the classifieds and the more I look at them the more I'm into them, especially after the glowing review you've had of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its a WE, the internals will melt quicker than the French Army in 1940 I just googled "we G3 gbb", first couple of results were about replacing knackered parts on the we, which isn't exactly confidence inspiring, then there was a review from redwolf if the umerex version which appeared to come out well ?. What I wanna know is, if they can do a G3, where's the SLR or fal that we're all gagging for ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilMonkee Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Not seen much about the VFC G3 but everything I have read indicate it to be decent. The caveat being, of course, that its a VFC and their GBBR don't have a good rep. Christ, if WE did a L1A1 I would be all over that even if it was a WE. Wonder if it would be possible to put the G3 internals into an Ares SLR frame? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SLR doesn't have much of a following outside the UK so that's already limiting their market then being a GBBR reduces it further, then of those people that want one only a certain number could actually afford one. So you're looking at all the R&D of designing and producing a working product with likely a lot of proprietary parts for maybe a couple hundred sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
