DoJaL Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) Joined the family! Now looking for a proper lipo that is sold outside the UK. Edited February 23, 2023 by DoJaL lokkers and JimFromHorsham 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter511 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Now one of the kewl kids. Waiting for my pre-order SD6 from Wolf to arrive. Now to get mids and batteries..... JimFromHorsham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoJaL Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Wow! Fielded my mp5 for the first time yesterday night and it did not disapoint! It shoots laser and accuracy is pretty darn good. Guess I want to put in a eagle6 m95 spring for a little fps boost because heavier bb’s take some time to get there, but nothing else is needed. Which weight do you guys use?

hunter511 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 In my experience stock recoils are amazing with good quality .25s. If you can find some Marui Perfect Hit .25s you're in for a treat. TheFull9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunter511 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) Marui perfect hits are manufactured to the kind of tolerances you'd use in bearing races for engineering, good consistancy, good accuracy. They may as well have been made for recoils. Most PTW owners that know of them swear by them too. Ive been using recoils since the first cqbrs came out over here and out of all the ammo Ive tried they are hands down the best .25s Ive experienced. No flyers, no cuboid bbs, no issues (other than the price). Generally if I lend a mag full of them to someone the first question is "where can I get some of those?". On an semi-related note anyone looking to shift some ngrs mp5 mids as I cant find anywhere with stock and need at least 4 lol.

hunter511 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) The mids disappeared fast tho. I think it was 10 mins from the restock notification to "out of stock" Fortunately I had signal at work and managed to nab 5.

I have 4 mags in total and on the field I play I barely empty 2 mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter511 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) I generally tend to carry 4-6 m4 ngrs mids on my kit with spares in my safezone for quick turnaround games. That said it's very rare I use all the rounds although I do also occassionally run the mags in 30 rd mode...... Plus the guys I play with regularly tend to do interoperability of platforms so especially in defensive games being able to spare a couple of mags is useful at times. TLDR version condom theory, rather have and not need than need and not have. Edited March 8, 2023 by hunter511 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimFromHorsham Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Talking of mags … these are NOT Ngrs mags pictured … so don’t get caught out https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285025053018?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=BOXmgn_XRda&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=uwMTeZHeShe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zooankski Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Anyone got recommendations for a hop rubber and nub to lift .28? Everything else standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter511 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 As standard TM's should lift .28s...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikeandgun Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Just got the MP5SD and am very impressed at the build quality compared to earlier Marui models. Just leaving it completely stock as it seems perfect as is, Until I can source extra magazines I've just been blasting away with it in the garden. I've been using a Marui 8.4v mini s nimh battery and it work perfect with it son see no need for lipos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its kinda luck of the draw if they lift a .28g My MWS's nub was so squishy, it would hardly lift a 0.28. I had it torn down the first week I owned it to replace the nub for a solid H style one.

I am jesting you gotta use what you got, but the weight/power ratio of lipos, the sizes and the charging speeds do make them more than worth moving/upgrading to I'd say.

mightyjebus Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 SD finally turned up. It's noticably quieter than it's brother. and here it is compared to the older TM SD and a VFC GBB SD.

Out of curiosity how easy would it be to chuck a tracer unit in the SD section? I hate the look of convention tracer units... but also hate adding more inches and grams tha needed onto a front end in the form of a 'proper' (read as Surefure Mini2/RC2) to accomodate a tracer unit. I've been eyeing an A5 for a while but the SD may well be a better pick for what I'd be looking to use it for... if it'd be easy enough to sling a tracer unit in it.

I tried it with an Acetech blaster and it works just fine. Edited March 23, 2023 by mightyjebus alxndrhll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
