The only good metal 1911's are CO2. Which you obviously wouldn't want to use on a TM base gun.

Especially if you are working on a bolty, access to a chrono will make your life a lot easier. As mentioned above, spring power varies from manufacturer to manufacturer and even from spring to spring (by the same manufacturer) in some cases. For one of my AEG's I was getting 325fps on a M115, so an M120 should have given me 340fps. However buying a Nuprol M120 put me over 400.

HG171B Tac 1911 Pistol Opinions?
Cr0-Magnon replied to TheNotoriousLoki's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
I'll just add, I love my CO2 pistols for winter use. I have 2 x ASG P-09's with upgraded inner barrels and buckings. They will shoot 5 x mags worth on one bulb at around 325fps and will hop anything I need to them to far and straight. However the mags themselves are super unreliable, I'm currently at 4 or 5 which are unusable due to leaks. At £30 a mag, that's definitely an issue. Also in 20C ambient temps, they shoot somewhere around the 370fps mark - making them too powerful for use in a skirmish during the warmer months. Any of the newer TM's should serve you well for most environments when using the right gas. If we're talking 100% stock, my favourite out of all the pistols I've ever owned is my TM Hi-Capa Gold Match. I left a mag outside in 4C for about three hours and it was able to rapidly shoot 30 rounds in a row with zero venting. -
Just in case it wasn't obvious why they're called "Hi-capa's"......

Then they should really do away with the "Licensed product of" markings.

At the other end of the spectrum, I sometimes call hits only to realise a moment later it was likely some debris falling from the trees.

Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)
Cr0-Magnon replied to Speedbird_666's topic in General Discussion
They're an interesting shop. I got a pistol from them and it came straight from the WE factory, slide in one shipment and frame in the other. -
Why isn't there a Hi-Point airsoft replica ?

At $179 for a CF-380, could it be the first airsoft replica to cost more than the real-plastic?
Of course, everybody would want a Yeet Cannon.
Sort of do want.
-
@Rogerborg - Even more of a case for it being spring powered!
Surely some of these Glocks are approaching RS price or higher. Especially like if with the GHK one, the mags are £40+.
-
Oh airsofters never change. Some gems from yesterday: "Push forward!" - Screamed by the same few people who always seemed to be at the back of the crowd ? "I upgraded my gun to a 11.1 lipo" "I felt a hit from the side but took a look and there wasn't anyone there, so didn't call it. Then I got shot again and noticed there was someone hiding in a bush" Player: "Guys, I've just been hit by a sniper" Marshal: "Dead men don't talk" Player: "That doesn't count because I didn't say where he is"
-
It'd still be nice for it to not fire when you inserted the mag. Although we shouldn't even be relying on not "flagging" people. If you don't want to shoot someone who isn't wearing eye pro, make sure mags are out and chambers are clear. If you want to at least make a concentrated effort not to shoot a team mate, trigger discipline n' all that... Also confusingly the pic is of a Gen.3 ?
-
It's taken me a long time to realise but as the great @Rogerborgonce said, all Airsoft guns do the same thing. Some a bit more reliably, some a bit quicker or a bit further but most just fine.
-
Only put it through one skirmish (which is one skirmish more than most youtube reviewers!) but so far very pleased with my XTC-G1 MS Aster. Not cheap or easy to find but solidly built, quiet/sounds perfectly shimmed out of the box, as well being jam packed with quality parts - including my favourite mosfet!
-
Age is (kinda) just a number, it's a cliche but it can definitely be true. Being young often helps but is no guarantee of good health. So really depends how the individual feels. Although saying that and perhaps this is slightly dark but I can just imagine someone having a heart attack and there's a neurotic little twerp screaming "take your hits!" at them.
-
I actually think they should double the minimum age. No under 25's, at least a three day induction course, six months of banks statements and a permission slip signed by your wife/partner. If you're not married/living with your partner, you can't play. Save the space for those of us who have a legitimate reason to leave the house at 6am on a weekend.

Just went to my local (TWA Croydon) today. A pretty average day in terms of gameplay but I am happy with my new M4 (Modify XTC with Gate Aster) and the 9.9V life batteries which I think I'll replace all my lipos with. Although I did have an amusing thought. Some airsofters get so excited spending half their monthly salary buying a new gun or "upgrading" one they already have. They'll argue with people endlessly about which is the best make, which is the (only) way to do something or even which BB weight to use. Then an hour in to actually playing and they're moping around at the back, looking almost completely disinterested.

Every video I see of this leads me to thinking they've made an excellent RIF and training weapon but not an optimal Airsoft gun. - Difficult to load mags. - Painful hop adjustment. - Heavy trigger. - Difficult (shown to be far more-so than the real steel) to disassemble.
-
Had a stinking cold all weekend and in my boredom watched one of the recent Novritsch videos. Yikes, shooting a kid with 1.8J and 0.46g's from 3 - 4 metres and showing himself doing the definition of blind firing....

Never been a ‘fanboy’ of Novichok but in the beginning his vids where entertaining but now ? He’s gone the same way as every other Airsoft ‘superstar’ , after a period of time they all seem to turn in to wankers once they’ve been treated like a Demi-god by hordes of pimply faced pre-pubescent crotch goblins for long enough .

Can’t figure out how to put my Vorsk vpx back together

Are the sear bits at the back pushed down? -
Just tried to get through to Patrol Base on the phone and quickly hung up after hearing "You are currently caller number eleven in the queue".....
In other news, I'm excited to finally be trying Driver Wood this Sunday!

In an age when most manufacturers are making it easier to adjust hop, GHK have found a way to make it harder ?
-
I would assume they're referring to the little box of BB's and dry firing inserts.

@AlphaBear just hadn't had the chance to type "Marui" for 30 seconds and was having withdrawal symptoms.

Am I the only person who doesn't get the "HK slap" obsession? How many AEG's have been broken by this pointless maneuver ?
I wouldn't even do it on a GBBR.

I feel like the airsoft version is much more 'HK snap' than it is 'HK slap'. Yes I'm aware how shit that 'joke' is, and no, I'm not ashamed.

@Rogerborg - Has Julian Clary hacked your account? ?
-
I see sniping as essentially playing airsoft on "hard mode".....ie not necessarily to gain an advantage in range etc but to get more satisfaction from every shot that hits, because they are in fact at a fire power disadvantage. Obviously rocking a giant, heavy bright blue thing, which I would assume performs terribly, just puts the user at every possible disadvantage and as is evident leads to extreme frustration. Especially so if they are a young and/or a new player and have Novritsch or KM etc level expectations
