Hef Legend Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 2x Maple 70 Degree VSR buckings @ £7.99 each including postage - eBay Table Clamp @ £4.99 - The Range Tube Cutter @ £1.99 - The Range Magnetic sheet 0.5mm diameter @ £1 for two sheets - The Range On a bit of a DIY mods spend today! The buckings are for my ASG mk23 pistol and my Well mb-02 sniper rifle. Looking for something that gives a bit more performance than the stock parts both do. At £7.99 a pop, and with Maple being a well recommended brand, I thought it was worth a shot. The tube cutter and table clamp are there because I intend to cut down a vsr inner barrel to fit my mk23 later on (after I acquire a barrel). The magnetic sheets will also be used to fix the feeding issue that occurs with my mk23's magazines - a single strip down one side of where the BBs sit will stop them getting trapped (or so I hope). If it doesn't work then I'm only down £1 and however long it takes me to fit them. If it works then happy days! How you finding the ASG MK23? They are only about £30 or so aren't they?

Happy Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 How you finding the ASG MK23? They are only about £30 or so aren't they?This is the one pistol I have (so far) kept longer than 6 months. Surprisingly good bit of kit for a very low price. Also very easy to upgrade since it takes vsr barrels and buckings. It's got to the point that I often take this to sites instead of my other more expensive rifles/pistols because of how reliable it is. Quality control isn't as great as a TM (particularly with the hop up) but the mags are much better/cheaper and don't need modifying to hold green gas. All the mods I've done have been made with the intention of getting it to be as quiet as possible and only now am I changing around the internals to squeeze even more performance out of it. Definitely worth the £60 (UK price new)/£35 (Poland) price if you get the chance to buy one. Only issues I've had are with the mags jamming - but that happens with the TM mags as well.

FPS is quoted as 420, is that with the barrel extension? I'd look to remove the barrel extension and actually make a suppressor, if it's <350 without then I might grab one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can take the suppressor apart to get rid of the inner barrel inside - that's what spikes the fps to DMR levels. For mine I brought the 16mm thread adapter and used a regular short silencer I have since added some baffels to. Drastically reduces the sound output from "quiet" to "are you sure someone's even shooting at us?" FPS on green gas is around 1joule or so without the suppresor though.

MILITATED Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 So, I finally switched the HPA! I bought a custom made drum magazine for the Vector, Ninja LPR regulator and a HPA tank (no idea what make!). Do excuse the lack of optics, I am currently in the process of obtaining something along the lines of an EOTech 55 series. Got a few more bits I want to buy for this, but I am very pleased! Apologies for the photo quality. Any decent photos seem to be too big to upload to AF UK. But here it is! MrMcG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully will start on wednesday once the gun turns up. Aiming for a DMR build Aengus, sp00n and BBrotherwood 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators djben9 Posted September 21, 2015 Moderators Share Posted September 21, 2015 Cooler Fan Version Outdoor Paintball Airsoft Glasses Goggle Ski anti-fog lens £24 posted - i read a good review on fb just now & the ESS knock offs i bought with the fan in the top centre turned out to be a bit sh*t, but the geezer reckons these have the fan at the side and that it circulates the air nicely - we shall see in a month...

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted September 21, 2015 Supporters Share Posted September 21, 2015 (edited) Ian, how did you get on with these? sorry it was Jan so not sure if you have reviewed?? The fan is not powerful enough, so i bought a second pair and added the both fans to one set - the trouble is that they have an electronic controller rather than just a battery and switch, so i was thinking i would be able to bodge them together onto a new battery pack with a single switch, maybe even overdrive them a bit, actually i've had to use the controllers side by side in a molle pouch. Sounds ok, eh? Well, the controllers have some kind of timer element and they do not work in synch, one seems to work better than the other... So my advice is don't bother. For me: Soviet Afghan War era Winter Mitts - £8.30 posted from Doncaster ~ eBay 50g CT-2 Teflon Grease - £3.99 posted ~ eBay Oh yeah, and i ballsed up my order to redzone.com.pl - i ordered a Berezka camo helmet cover for 6B27 helmet instead of 6B7 1M - i was just about to hit send on a snotty email to 'em when i realised it was my mistake - phew! So I've just put in an order for the correct one - £10-odd posted from Poland Edited September 21, 2015 by Ian_Gere stuff Happy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
