Supporters Popular Post Rogerborg Posted May 9 Supporters Popular Post Share Posted May 9 Hello airsoft friends! Are these good RIFs to buy to win at airsoftwars battle maps? The pistol has 1.3 jewels, just like a watch, and the advanced future riflegun has pure polymer bushings in its bearings so should run very smoothelely! gavinkempsell, Nick G, Tackle and 7 others 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plan is to use it as the basis of something more theatrical, but it'll need calmed down as it's a bit spicy. On the other hand, the mags are feeble and it's struggling to get 20 shots from a fill even though it's NBB. Still, I'm sure I'll spend more on something worse at some point... 19 minutes ago, DanBow said: Yeah boi, thats sik man Them's proper righteous.

EDcase Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 My XR-5 is awesome! 😁👍 Mind you it was tweaked by the previous owner who was a tech. 😉 57 minutes ago, Rogerborg said: Hello airsoft friends!

Yes, I knowingly bought them, on purpose and everything! 5 minutes ago, EDcase said: My XR-5 is awesome! 😁👍 Mind you it was tweaked by the previous owner who was a tech. 😉 Who presumably said "Never again!". They're sods to work on, it's gearbox-out just to get the hop and barrel out, with a bench full of screws and push pins, all different hex sizes. I'm going to run it cosmetically pimped but mechanically stock this weekend just for the chuckles, then see about sorting whatever doesn't survive or function. They really do have plastic bushings, and I've never seen such thin wiring. Nick G, EDcase, Shamal and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I bought years ago was dry as a bone in its mech box when it was new I'm treating it as a cosmetic shell, really, and have a more or less spare CYMA gearbox ready to go in. This weekend will be a torture test to see what survives, although I may spooge some lube up the motor-hole fnar anyway. gavinkempsell, Shamal and sp00n 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got one of the carbines and I've had it chrono at over 2.4j using green gas in the middle of winter Mmm, that "1.3J" turned out to be more like 1.6J, using ASG green and 0.2g. 🌶️ Fortunately, it's just a matter of filing the firing pin down, which should also help with the gas efficiency. Which reminds me, I'd better sling a file in the toolbag for tomorrow in case it spices up again with heavier BBs. Cannonfodder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JinxDuh Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Went to a military show today, picked up some EMAG shells and a RS grip pod for £35 all in. Should make for some nice shells for the WE L85!

Supporters TheFull9 Posted May 12 Supporters Share Posted May 12 That's a lucky scoop right there, a few firearm related shops here used to sell them but afaik every single one dried up years ago. Now that they're 'the thing you can't get' they're all the rage for collectors and aficionados state side. Seen many many comments on Magpul's social media posts asking for them.

They’re hard to come by so going to hold onto them!

Cannonfodder Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Nothing fancy, just new desert dpm trousers and multicam black top for cqb. It looks like getting unissued DDPM is starting to get harder, but it has been out of service for about 15 years now so I shouldn't be too surprised gavinkempsell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable. That's as bad as Mrs shamals Avon orders. They will send a box like that for one mascara (not that I know what that is) Still,at least you got a delivery 🙂 gavinkempsell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
