Supporters Popular Post Rogerborg Posted May 9, 2024 Supporters Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2024 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!

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...

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. Shamal, Tackle, Nick G and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This weekend will be a torture test to see what survives, although I may spooge some lube up the motor-hole fnar anyway.

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...

Cannonfodder Posted May 15, 2024 Share Posted May 15, 2024 Nothing fancy, just new desert dpm trousers and multicam black top for cqb.
