Solder Flux/Paste is well worth having if you do regular soldering. I duno this brand but an example: Solder Flux Paste to Avoid Dry Joints - 20g: Amazon.co.uk: DIY & Tools I have this one and this tin has lasted literally years: Fluxite Soldering Paste – Shepherd Miniatures Just dip the wire into it before soldering.

Duno about the MR30 side but the Deans is correct

Sorry to hear. Only think I can suggest is next time you call someone at UPS tell them you'll have to inform the Police as the item is a replica firearm and its disappearance may have to be investigated by them.

You don't need to replace everything with that kit. Your bolt does look quite battered so might be worth replacing that and it comes with the nozzle. M4 Open Bolt Kit #2 GBBR (kyairsoft.com) The RA-Tech trigger group is well worth having as WE parts like the trigger sear wear out very quickly. You can always wait until the WE one fails before upgrading to the RA-Tech. RA steel CNC trigger set(for we M4 GBB ) (kyairsoft.com) Or the whole box RA steel complete trigger box(for we M4 GBB) (kyairsoft.com)

Should be an instant ban

Yeah, cleaning will most likely fix the issue. Only thing I can think of is to check the BB feed lug under the nozzle isn't damaged. (The bit that pushes the BB out of the magazine) You probably know this but just in case: Lube everything (including non mechanical parts as Jim said) with 3-in-one or silicone spray (NOT WD40) and NOT inside the hop rubber or barrel.

You can. Under the ad there is a button 'Advert Actions' with the options to Edit and Hide

Interesting. Should get moved to right place. The gearbox locking up is often a symptom of a weak battery. The original ported cylinder would be better as the port allows for more acceleration of the piston. It should only be changed to non ported if the volume is not sufficient for the barrel length (which it shouldn't be)

I'd add to all the above advice: Buy a decent £200 starter AEG to get a feel for the game (Its quite different to paintball in many ways) When you've played a few games you'll have a better idea of the style of gameplay you want to get into. You'll also talk to other peeps and seen what they run. This will help you decide what to get in the future. If you still have any HPA stuff then that might be the best option for you and your first AEG will become a good backup. So start slow and build your gear as you build experience otherwise you risk wasting a lot of money.

I've got one too. Slightly different fuse info but same colour. Can't remember where I got it ? Its the US MK2 M21 'Pineapple' grenade made from 1918-1969 The fuse it a practice one so legal to own. Yeah, use it as a paperweight but I careful dropping it in case it damages the floor ? Edit: just found this: G&G Armament - MK2 Hand Grenade Replica BB Bottle | Patrol Base UK

I agree. More likely photoshop than AI. 'AI generated' is just the social buzzword for anything faked at the moment.

Yeah like many, I saw some of his vids when I first searched about airsoft (he's been a wanker for a long time) Honestly his videos put me off playing for quite some time because it looked like it was full of wankers with the good toys picking on on the new players and just acting like shits. I eventually had a go when my son wanted to try it and found there were actually decent people there. Now I know Licking Cumstain is a perfect example of the many youtube wankers doing shit just for the view count. Don't give him or any of em any views

Yeah could be. Or they all copied TM ?

I found that my Vorsk VP-26x (P226 based) is compatible with WE P226 mags so if you don't find any Vorsk mags then have a look at equivalent WE ones.

Just look into what's happening over there and see for yourself...

Yes, I saw a video explaining about China's 'special' rates because it classes itself as an 'emerging economy' I believe all the low stock is due to all the problems China has been having in the last few years. Covid lockdown was an utter disaster for the economy and then the sudden 'back to normal' when it wasn't eradicated caused millions of deaths. (Their vaccine didn't work at all) Then the floods this year. And their economy is seriously tanking I think it'll be a long while before stock goes back to previous levels.

Ouch ? Luckily many Vorsk parts are compatible with WE Only place I can think that has spares is: WE Pistols (GBBP) - Parts (kyairsoft.com) But you'll have to find the equivalent WE hammer The gas router should be a standard part for WE mags too.

I had their Sten and currently have their Enfield. They're certainly not the best but similar to others like Bell, A&K, AGM or WELL.

Probably not with the RMR in the middle. It might be possible to add a velcro strip to allow room at the mid point but you'd have to experiment with it. Its probably your best bet

330fps is good so you shouldn't try to increase as it could go over site tests. (fps test do vary so yours may measure differently to theirs) If you really want to tinker, as Lozart said, better barrel and hop rubber may result in more consistent shot groups.

Welcome mate ?

Mine have the cheaper pin arrangement. Are there screws to take it off? Otherwise just spray some oil in and try to wiggle it out with a pin or something.

The 209 BFG (Dynatex Timed Delay BFG) are good and the cheapest option to use (about 8p per bang) but I only use mine for close clearing like dropping through a window or rolling into a room so I can find and retrieve it quickly. As mentioned before, these cannot be thrown far and can be lost/stolen. (I have painted mine with bright colours to be easily found/identified) I don't trust the impact grenades as I've seen them fail to detonate quite a few times in woodland games. Enola Geyes (Airsoft Grenades and Smoke Bombs | Enola Gaye) MK-5 are the most common pyro for full throwing and most sites sell them. Their smokes are also good and commonly sold on site. Of course you'll find them online for better prices. You just have to prove you're over 18 to purchase. Same goes for the 209 blanks (shotgun primers)
