    brings the brand new total up to £620 then
  3. Adolf Hamster
    how about this: m4 base: £190 jack: £266 hop unit £53 barrel: £61 hoping that the stock isn't actually being held together by electrical tape and cable ties: priceless

      @Adolf Hamster I have heard of many reports of some of internals being made of cheese from the Russian FB groups. Finish is poor, O Rings on the Mag are too thick which meant it was hard to fill with gas.  Doesn't work in anything below 10 degrees. The parts that you think should be steel are not. This is the opinion of more then just one person as well! Multiple people!

      yeah, looked up a review from arnies and seems to be there are some issues, but probably not insurmountable. the o-ring on the bbu was too tight but that's good in terms of being a fixable issue.

       

      i'm not a very heavy pistol user anyway so if if i can stuff a ml autobot in there and get a mags worth of .32's downrange i'm happy enough.

    see now that works, plus you still get the proper folding action. would rather a 20-rounder in it though.
  8. Adolf Hamster
    Nope. I actually preferr the ugg boot. But then i dont like the extended rails on scars and i seem very much in the minority on that too.

    Good work brother, the pervasive fitting of m4 stocks onto not m4's is a plague that needs stopped at every opportunity.
  10. Adolf Hamster
    it's a tricky one. an enfield base would mean having to fabricate an entire blowback mech, but would make the external/visual modifications comparitively easy. possibly an m14? it's at least setup to have a mock rotating bolt to it.

    the problem i've found with gbb's is they're systems that are in very delicate balance. the hammer spring, recoil spring, float valve, mag valve, how well the mag sits, the seals between the hop/nozzle and the mag/nozzle are all critical. my general theory is it's better not to mess with the base mechanism too much, because throwing out those tolerance can spell real bad news. all i've done with the makarov is change the piston head to what i'd call an aeg type (as opposed to the solid rubber thing that they come with stock) and generalised tinkering with the hop/barrel. same with the dragonuv all i've done is a bit of spacer rubber in the magwell and some hop work, but even that gave a bunch of problems. but everyone has their weakness, and i'll admit that i don't know as much about gbb's as i do about aeg's/hpa's, at least not to the level where i'm confident enough to be issuing advice on changing out parts etc.

    i was gonna say charlton but unfortunately it's now too late for me to claim that i called it..... it's an intesting proposition, you can't just do the normal gbbr trick of not having a locking mechanism as it's external, i wonder if you'd almost need 2 gas supplies- one in the mag to fire and one in the "gas tube" to operate the cycling. it'd probably be awful to skirmish but goddamn would it command respect and admiration.

    welcome to the wonderful world of compatible-ish, finding out rated brands are actually shite, realising sometimes cheap stuff is good, nothing ever fits quite-right world of teching. hence the difficulty when someone asks "what upgrades do it get?" because not every part fits every gun and sometimes a really top-tier bit of gucci kit is crap when it's just not right for the build.
  14. Adolf Hamster
    wow, 1200 would buy you a LOT of shiny gat.
  15. Adolf Hamster
    going by the first uk site on google to claim to have stock i'd say so: https://www.onlybbguns.co.uk/aps-uarb-urban-assault-rifle go to twg it's £125 (plus postage, spinning widdershins 3 times so it won't be blocked at the channel and sacrificing your firstborn to the tax man) even if it's got an asg infinity in there that's still steep.
  16. Adolf Hamster
    Damnit, that was one that i thought it was but was like "nahh cant be an mg13 mag"
  17. Adolf Hamster
    Thats a, umm, what is it exactly? I can see a mk23, some m4 bits and i a magazine i feel i should recognise but dont.

    For sure, he even painted the sights to match! Exception that proves the rule i guess

    and as we all know every airsoft tech working at a shop puts the maximum of care, attention and the precise skill that only comes with experience into every job they do. or i could be wrong and there could be a reason why premium tech's are a thing.....

    bullpup rpk innit or for those of us who cannot understand a concept unless stated in meme form:
  22. Adolf Hamster
    Yeah let it go
  23. Adolf Hamster
    that's because you're a toxic member who doesn't contribute anything to this forum. oh wait, sorry wrong guy...... i dunno, apparently being new isnt the problem:
  24. Adolf Hamster
    see how much better the world is when we can have open and reasoned debate where we respect each others opinions fortunately the limitations of the internet prevent it being obvious that i couldn't type that with a straight face

    lockdown has us all bored, plus we haven't been out shooting to grumble about what really needs to be addressed: speedsofters
