To be fair I don't have a DSR-1 in my collection but I'd rather have a Walther WA-2000, besides I do have 2 Mac11's, 3 if you count my Mac10 too.

 

Can't place an add just now (with pics) but has anyone got a full length gas tube for an M16A1/A2/A3/A4 going cheap?

 

 

 

Perfect time to add one to the collection that's come from a collection and had 4 mags through it total 😉

 

Absolutely not jealous of the Mac 10 at all...

 

I have a gas tube, bit pricey as it comes with a free DSR-1 😂

No need to be jealous, it's a cheap Mac-10, it was a replacement for a two tone one I rattle canned & did a shit job of(it's hiding in my shed somewhere).

 

Got a new gearbox and an ejection port cover for my M16A3 today, the Orion gear box was working fine but the join in the red wire prevented the motor sitting properly in the grip, I'm sure the rif was working before it was dismantled for posting but I'm damned if I could get the motor sitting properly.

I'm no tech but it looks to me that this gearbox has been worked on, in fact I know it has as I can see through the spring access that teeth have been removed from the gear/s.

That’s nasty!

Orion gearbox works using a motor with a longer pinion & the issue the seller had with it only firing on full auto with no safety seems to be the selector possibly in the wrong allignment? even the new gearbox suffered this complaint. Working silly hours just now at work so will fiddle about with it another time when I can focus properly.

6 WE SCAR H V3 Mags, as i'm intending on running it as DMR, so the HPA avenue is just an unnecessary irritation.

 

By the time they've landed in the UK, at worst case its going to be £45 a mag.

A pal linked to the FS sale that was going on as he knows I'm fanatical about g&p.. and it just happened to be my daughters 16th , so looks like I have a farther daughter build 🤣 for her first rif.

Saw a father and son using one of these a few weeks ago, don’t think they hit anyone but it looked like a right laugh, it cut through the (softer) weeds and bushes like the one on Predator!!

 

For the second game they took a 3000 round pot of BB’s with them and left it at the spawn point so they could keep it going.

 

Glad they were on my/our team! Have fun!

Only recently got back into this hobby. I’ve tried to make my new collection something that covers all bases but isn’t so big that some replicas never get used. So far I’ve picked up an NGRS MP5, TM USP, TM FNX 45, and this is the latest addition. Thinking of getting a Saiga next.
