Alimcd Posted June 17, 2021 Author Posted June 17, 2021 I’ve used a Guarder Lightweight magazine with the adaptor, with the Cyma midcap in, its total weight is 295g - on my scales here, a stock TM mag is 335g! I’m still getting used to how it looks, but the fact that I can now carry 650rds for my Capas without rattling or weighing myself down is a brucey bonus in my book. The plan is that I’ll pick up a Tanuki MP5 adaptor for my new KC02 build and then I can run the midcaps in either set up 1 hour ago, alxndrhll said: You'll likely find this link useful when it comes to further purchases to complete the look ?. God that stuff’s awful I can’t get Nathan Barley out of my head looking at that stuff

Goota love those niche British comedies.

Alimcd Posted June 20, 2021 Author Posted June 20, 2021 I can’t stop myself. Had a few issues with my Balystik regulator. Part of it had worked it’s way loose and it wouldn’t adjust above 90psi. Called High Pressure Airsoft who immediately pointed me in the direction of what the issue was and it’s working now. It was enough of a confidence knock that I’ve decided to treat myself to a fancier reg. The Speed Airsoft reg has an on/off switch on the side so I can easily stick it on a different bottle when I’m empty. Ive also treated myself to a second tank so I can Ghostbuster all day.
Alimcd Posted June 23, 2021 Author Posted June 23, 2021 It’s too late for me It happened, I bought a Dye mask I’m basically Vader at this point Next stop is a YouTube channel calling everyone, including the marshalls, cheaters

Cr0-Magnon Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 Seeing as this is basically a Hi Capa build thread now....has anyone done something interesting with a 4.3? Just bought a 4.3 Dual Stainless but starting to regret it as there doesn't seem that many slide options. So looking for inspiration. Alimcd 1
Alimcd Posted June 28, 2021 Author Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) There’s not a lot around 4.3 slide wise at the moment. Airsoft Masterpiece are on the cusp of releasing a 4.3 version of their Battlecat slide. @Steveocee and myself have both got them on order from Kyle at HiCapaHub. He’s definitely worth getting in touch with to see if he can sneak another one onto his orders. Edited June 28, 2021 by Alimcd
Alimcd Posted June 29, 2021 Author Posted June 29, 2021 Brain doesn’t work well after 9pm. @Cr0-Magnon If the Battlecat look is a bit too Speedyboi for you Makeit3D are close to releasing several super lightweight slide designs including some for the 4.3. These would give you a slide the same weight as the stock TM but capable of withstanding longer term punishment from Green/Red gas or HPA >90psi Finally, the word on the street is that Airsoft Masterpiece are going to slowly rerelease a lot of their older designs (sounds like they’ve run out of ideas ) so there could be a 4.3 Costa Carry or a 4.3 Infinity at some point but the best idea of knowing when would be to throw a dart at a calendar
Cr0-Magnon Posted June 29, 2021 Posted June 29, 2021 I'm not sure if this is an old design or one that's coming soon but I like it a lot. I think it'd go well with the dual Stainless chassis and I already have an STI grip on order.
Alimcd Posted June 29, 2021 Author Posted June 29, 2021 If you can find one in stock, it’ll look awesome on the dual stainless frame! I’ve found with AM stuff; if you remotely like it, don’t hang about - just buy it. If you hesitate it’ll be sold out in weeks
Steveocee Posted June 29, 2021 Posted June 29, 2021 @Cr0-Magnon the Mi3D slides are good. I have been testing an example for Matt for a couple of months now. He has about 4-5 styles that will be coming up, I'd say they are about 80% done, it's down to really fine tuning the fitment on them now though. I've been able to release some images over the last few days of what to expect of them.... (more on my insta https://www.instagram.com/angrybullairsoft/ ) Here is my "skirmish pistol" with one of Matt's slides and rear sites;
Alimcd Posted June 29, 2021 Author Posted June 29, 2021 @Steveocee Loving that slide and frame set in your Instagram story. Going silver barrel and controls?

The one in the story is a Golden Eagle stock frame and the slide is the TM Gold Match plastic slide. I originally built that up as a "blackout" build. I'm not sure if/what will fit on the grip but am very tempted to buy a government model and build that up as a black/silver combo instead. Too many options, I keep telling Kyle I want an open slide build as well which is a possibility once I've done my Kythera machine pistol.
Alimcd Posted June 29, 2021 Author Posted June 29, 2021 Ha, me too! I’m sure he’s told you the same thing about more open stuff later in the year. I’m holding out for a silver or two tone open-style Limcat slide+frame set. Something similar to the Dragoncats they did a while back Is the Silver Infinity set yours?

No that's a 5.1 set that has been customised for a guy I watch as much as I can of on YT Grey Airsoft. His earlier material was very good cqb and he has slowly eased into speedsoft bit is now mixing it up. Real positive guy and an inspiration of the kind of person I'd like to be. Immense.vision to cut down like that and skill from the guy who has done it. I'm happy with the BC though. Picked up a CowCow sight over the weekend as well to make it easier to install when the purple terror arrives.
Alimcd Posted June 29, 2021 Author Posted June 29, 2021 Just checked out some of his footage. The 2020 highlight with the 10 kill streak is pretty epic! I don’t suppose Kyle’s shared any wisdom about expected shipping dates? His suspicion was end of July last time I badgered him…

I try not to jab constantly about it but the last he said to me was end of July. The person who cut that slide Jeff_Repairsoft is also an AM dealer and he has hinted at August I think in one of the FB groups. I don't want to be over hyped but I'm starting to get impatient ?

Alimcd Posted June 30, 2021 Author Posted June 30, 2021 It’s felt like they’ve been “ready to drop” for ages. Remember when they were going to be released in March… Do you know what he’s got on the way? I’ve got a JLP racker for the Speedcat/C-More but I’m curious if he’s got anything else weird on the way
Cr0-Magnon Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 I've noticed something about those 4.3 Limcat slides which is going to bother me. They have 9mm markings and my Guarder outer barrel .45. Does anyone make an outer barrel with 9mm markings?

I suspect that as soon as the Battlecats actually drop, it’ll be one of the next things from AM. I’m exactly the same vein, I got worked up about having a .45 barrel with my Speedcat (0.40) and lo and behold, a few weeks later, they dropped threaded and non threaded 0.40S&W outer barrels Cr0-Magnon 1
