Dan Robinson Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Couple of questions if you dont mind, as it's my first GBBR... How do you adjust the hop on this....I'm guessing clockwise (as you look down the barrel) increases? Given a reasonably full gas bottle, how long does it take to charge the 30 round mags? Do they do slightly higher capacity mags? Say 150 bbs rather than 30. How compatible are WE spares - I've read about the pot metal used in these things 🤪. How strong is the folding stock? Would I be nuts to use it for a sling? As always, tah in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I never use that position on any G36 rifles. Dan Robinson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I'm taking my pews at the weekend, but my knee is still Donald Ducked from last gameday, getting a new brace today, so we'll see how things go for Monday. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackCommandoUnit1972 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 As far as I know, its a clone of the WE G36 so should be compatable with any WE spares. RA Tech do a load of parts for the G36 but I would just leave it stock until it breaks. However, I have a few RA Tech parts in my WE G36. I don't know if the AA version has a plastic charging handle, if so, I would recommend getting a metal one as this will 100% break on you.

CrackCommandoUnit1972 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 What FPS are you getting from it? On a hot day my WE one can shoot well over 400fps and it needs a NPAS and weaker gas to get it close to be usuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Robinson Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 I have had a bit of a roller coaster on that one. A full mag will be well over 400 using ASG Ultra Air Gas. After a few shots it bounces around between 250 and 340. I shall load one up and post some chrono pics... My butane bottle adapter isn't coming until next week. I'm hoping the much bigger bottles will give a more consistent fill pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some anomalies, which I am hoping was down to the fact there were a few pre-fired BBs in that bottle. More worryingly, a metal pin has fallen out of my of the pews - it could be a Glock, the 1911, the Auto 9 or the new G36. Sad times. 😪 CrackCommandoUnit1972 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackCommandoUnit1972 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Those are some whacky numbers there. Sometimes, with Gbbr's it not about the consistancy, it's the experience. Post a pic of the pin, some airsoft super tech might be able to ID it for you.

Dan Robinson Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 Well, it ended up being two parts lose.... Took the front grop off and this little plate came out too. Can't see where either came from (limke I said, the pin could be from another pew). Also found the castellated nut that holds the outer barrel in place was totally undone. Can't beat airsoft QC 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackCommandoUnit1972 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I have just stripped mine down and cant see anything that resembles the retangular peice you have found. And there is nothing in that diagramme that resembles that bit either The only pin from under the hand guard I can see it the one that holds the mock gas block in place. This website seems to stock every bit you need for you rifle. https://www.kyairsoft.com/parts/we-rifles-gbbr/999-series.html Dan Robinson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheriffHD Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 That peice is from the mock gas cylinder that's at the front I do believe. Should feel a slight spring tension when you slide it in. I've had mine 6 months now, on mine I've developed an issue with it shooting fully auto on semi but the plastic tip on the charging handle has stood up fine.

mightyjebus Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 (edited) the pin looks like 3 possible things, the pin from the G36 mag release, the rear lower receiver on a glock or the lower receiver gearbox pin from an M4 Edited August 26, 2023 by mightyjebus Dan Robinson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
