[elder anchor]

no sales here

[timid robin]

oh shit sorry

[tropic tundra]

hey so im looking for M lok side grip anyone know where to get one?

like a slanted fore grip from tarkov yk?

[dense falcon]

@tropic tundra magpul is the name brand company that makes them

you'd could maybe find one at your local dunham's or sporting store if you live in the u.s

[tropic tundra]

yes im looking at the website cant seem to find one

[dense falcon]

optics planet is a good website to buy anything for hunting/shooting https://www.opticsplanet.com/magpul-industries-angled-foregrip-mlok.html

https://www.opticsplanet.com/magpul-afg1-angled-foregrip.html

hope that helps

[dense falcon]

@timid robin what kind of gun are you looking for?

[crystal rover]

no clue on what gun but i directed them towards g&g and cyma

[dapper plover]

and Eotechs 😏

[warm zenith]

If anyones got some customized guns send them to me please!

[grizzled hill]

That’s like

So unspecific

[sinful agate]

How about a custom made gbb AK12?

[junior sedge]

mauser K98

[sinful agate]

Kar98k would be cool

[warm zenith]

How much was that if you don’t mind me askin

[sinful agate]

It's custom made

You can't just buy it from a store

But it prob cost $700 for just the parts itself

Since you're putting in gbbr parts inside an AEG body

[warm zenith]

Are gbbr one of the better brand for internal upgrades?

[sinful agate]

What

Gbbr means gas blow back rifle

[dapper plover]

got a 416 MWS

[warm zenith]

that flew over the top of my head

[glacial drift]

That's pretty cool

Looks like a lot of effort fitting the internals though parts

[novel fractal]

Thats CZ’s?

[sinful agate]

Yup

Another custom made that's really dope is the 762 mdr

Proprietary gearbox

[elder anchor]

very cool

[limber flame]

MidDR

made by the funny pedotech

[hushed yoke]

cant wait for it to just have horrible trigger bar problems and be a ares tavor 2.0

[junior sedge]

💀

[sinful agate]

Aeg bullpup users cope

[slim ocean]

W christmas, I got over $1k now to spend on airsoft now.

[warm zenith]

😂

[junior sedge]

I've already arranged the stuff im buying with me moneys

[sinful agate]

Sheesh, straight up getting cash for Christmas?

[limber flame]

i got £10💀

cant even buy a bottle of bbs

[junior sedge]

Poor boi

[limber flame]

[junior sedge]

[limber flame]

ive already got some

[junior sedge]

[slim ocean]

Yeah

I don't really get gifts anymore

I get cash instead now

[slim ocean]

[junior sedge]

Yee

Grabbing me a lil technicom level 5 and an SSO partisan suit

[crystal rover]

i got cereal

[alpine oxide]

You guys are getting things?

[slim ocean]

Nice

i'm getting a cmd bunkerking pb mask, flatpack, and more crap.

[pulsar phoenix]

can u sell in here?

[sinful agate]

no

[river bison]

i decided for my next project to give my krytac CRB a make over and turn it into a urgi

but keep it an AEG for now until i can muster up the patience to grind down another gear box and hpa it

[fickle notch]

Just bought a chestrig for the atacs kit im putting together

[river bison]

Ah well at least this krytac won’t look like a bag of shit

The performance is t bad especially now I replaced a bunch of parts internally but Jesus that key is fail is atrocious

[sinful agate]

Wasdn AliExpress ir

[river bison]

Huh

[river bison]

It’s NGAL though

There’s a difference

[sinful agate]

Did u get the dummy box or just the red laser?

[river bison]

So the one evike sells has the red laser and IR and light

I don’t need a dummy box

Most of my guns have the peq from wasdn with the except of some with somogear

[sinful agate]

pls don't break ppl's retina or nods using the super powerful laser

[river bison]

I have nods too so I don’t do vis

I also filtered my 14’s and my duals for safety

The real perst-4 probably has the strongest vis laser I know and it’s way too damn bright for nods

Don’t even need a damn illuminatior at that point

God damn light saber haha

[novel fractal]

Oh nice, d3. What plate carrier did u get?

[limber flame]

that aint a D3 lmao

looks like a generic eastern wartech rig

[elder anchor]

Making another Mk16?

Btw I just got the wadsn NGAL, it’s sick

[elder anchor]

I need to ask, is it weird to receive TaGGiNs for Christmas

[limber flame]

nah
its based

[river bison]

Yeah this one will be AEG for now though

[elder anchor]

Nothing wrong with a Good AEG

Spend the same money on it as you would a HPA set up and it will probably run better

It’s just, as you are aware HPA is a lot easier

[river bison]

That’s debatable

One major thing I hate about AEG’s is the fuckin whine

Also the longevity of the parts

Like mosfets randomly just dying or turning my gun into a run away gun

I had on 2 separate occasions end up with run away guns from both gate titans and an aster

Had to scrap the whole thing which was disappointing

It’s also why I’m stuck with alot of spare AEG parts that I threw on this poor krytac lmao

All I have to do with these HPA especially the pneumatic ones is regrease once in a long while

Not to mention I can switch from CQB to outdoors in as little as a few turns without having to tear apart my shit to replace springs

[elder anchor]

That is easily removed

[elder anchor]

Depending on the mosfret that doesn’t happen

[river bison]

Another major thing that spurred me into just going HPA is I don’t have the time to tech guns like I used to

[elder anchor]

Yeah that’s fair

[river bison]

I have a full time job and I work 14 hours a day sometimes 24 and all I wanna do is pick up and play

[elder anchor]

I can fully understand that

I would say however, seen as you have so many guns that you can use that are HPAed, before buying a new engine perhaps send the krytac to get professionally teched just to see how good you can make an AEG

[river bison]

Lol I’m so tired of professional “techs”

I only trust one tech now and that’s the admin of the El Paso airsoft group

I remember paying techs so much only for them to do a half ass job

[elder anchor]

Lol yeah that’s fair

People learn how to disassemble a gearbox then call themselves a tech

[river bison]

For real

I’ve ended up fixing the issues myself

Also a lot of them do not have a guarantee, the one tech I trust actually put warranty into his work

[elder anchor]

Yeah If a tech doesn’t do warranty

Fuck that

[river bison]

Not to mention some of these techs do not know how to solder, holy fuck

[elder anchor]

Yeah they aren’t techs

Simple

[river bison]

Like years ago I sent this one gun to a “professional” store get worked on and came back and it was having shorts turns out this monkey bukaked the mosfet with solder

[elder anchor]

Nice

Always fun

Shitty how people pretend to know what they’re doing, would make similar money just doing the basic shit that they actually know how to do, but no, they have to pretend to be pros

[river bison]

for real

That reminds me I need to buy new IGL’s for almost all my guns

I’ve been using the stock one it came with

[river bison]

@elder anchor

The krytac in question

I got it from a friend

[fickle notch]

None yet, I don't have a ton of money right now so im buying one thing at a time

Figured a chestrig without a plate carrier is more useful for airsoft than a carrier without a chestrig

[river bison]

i loathe keymod so much

[elder anchor]

Is that the HW acog?

Either way very nice

[river bison]

its a real one lol

[elder anchor]

Full tan URGI is a vibe

[elder anchor]

Oh fuck

[river bison]

pretty scuffed though

[elder anchor]

Aesthetic

[limber flame]

salty TA-31 my beloved

[alpine oxide]

Have you swapped the gearbox shell on the MCX or do you have the standard VFC one?

[river bison]

i actually kept the original VFC shell and slapped whatever hpa engine

i dont wanna lose bolt catch functionality

putting a fusion engine on a VFC requires you to buy the bolt catch addon and give up ambi

@elder anchor i also have this crazy idea of just putting my mk18 DD rail on the krytac and putting the urgi rail on my other VFC thats hpa'd

lmao

so i get a short and a long boi mk16

[alpine oxide]

I’m just having an issue with the Kythera trigger not resetting with the bolts tightened. I’ve got two screws slacked off atm just to use it and it don’t sit right with me having loose screws

[river bison]

does it reset without it?

you need to slowly find that sweet spot, screwing the screw too close will do that

oh and did u remove the screw from the top ?

[alpine oxide]

Screw from the top of what, the shell or engine? 😅

[river bison]

the engine

idk why polar star ships it with a screw on the top that locks the trigger

it has to be removed fully

im trying to find a picture so i dont have to take apart my shit just to show it

[alpine oxide]

I’m pretty sure I did 🤔 cuz it came locked and then I tinked with it for ages so I must have.

[river bison]

hmm

have you gotten it to fire successfully before?

if you did that means you took off the shipping screw

which is good

[alpine oxide]

The trigger on the Kythera outside the gearbox shell resets fine however it’s the second I start tightening the top screws on the shell it’s really funny

[river bison]

did you check if your line is crimped?

it does that if the line is bent to the point its restricting airflow

especially if ur using the stock IGL

[alpine oxide]

It could be a possibility, it’s not the standard grip line you get with the engine as I put one of them braided ones in it so it could just be too big for the shell

It was a pretty tight fit

[rugged compass]

@alpine oxide when I put in a braided line same thing happened the shell barely fit but I just said eh fuck it and it worked so

My b didn’t know

[river bison]

ok, try taking out the engine out of the gear box first

and function test it

[sinful agate]

Trynna protect u from getting banned

[rugged compass]

Yep thanks just deleted it

[river bison]

if it firres fine then yeah your line is being crimped

[rugged compass]

Anyone else think this is rose gold?

[alpine oxide]

Yeah I’ve done a load of functionally tests outside the gearbox and it’s fine, it’s just whenever the top screws are tightened. tbf I might try taking some more length off the spring guide as it feels a lil too snug so it could be adding pressure onto the line

[rugged compass]

Christmas hall, plus a new krytac crb and a bunch of stuff off Amazon that still needs to ship

[river bison]

ok

spring guide is definitely doing it

if its the MCX i kinda opted to go without it haha

sorry scratch that i had to go without it on the MPX because of the fusion engine

[alpine oxide]

The only reason I kept it was because I thought it was needed for the rear stock

[river bison]

but uh u can have it on your mcx but just cut it really short

nah

u dont need it

i would also advise you to get rid of that god awful stock for the mcx and get one of the skeletonized ones or the real mcx stock if u can

its a night and day difference

Initially I was like this, then I realized the stock “stock” kept wearing my finish away

And put this stock on

It’s like 70 bucks something on evike

[alpine oxide]

Yeah I’ve seen a few things from airsoft artisan that I’m after like the LVAW kit. It’s just finding stuff in the UK as importing gun parts can be tricky 😂

[rugged compass]

Anyone know if angel customs inner barrels are any good

[elder anchor]

what im tryna do but

the people i bought this mk16 off are on holiday

so i cant send it back yet to get the long one

[river bison]

it be like that lol, i dont expect to see my mk16 parts for another 2 weeks

[elder anchor]

terrible

[river bison]

Now that I think about it I shoulda just bought another HAO rail from Paragon Armory but I think it’s sold out

[elder anchor]

your longer one came with the trades

the HAO one

didnt it?

[river bison]

https://paragonarmory.com/collections/handguards-rails/products/hao-mk16-10-5-handguard-for-aeg

i have the long HAO

wanna know whats funny? i have a spare 16inch dytac mk16

lmao

[elder anchor]

lol why

where did it come from

[river bison]

Typical impulse buy @elder anchor

The Dytac isn’t bad it’s more bronzeish

Lol if any of my finish wears off on the MCX it’s getting rattle canned with camo paint

@elder anchor my HAO rail is fuckin scuffed from the heavy use and the modifications since the damn thing needed some parts dremelled off

It’s also safe to say the HAO rail is forever stuck on that VFC upper

[elder anchor]

is it top one?

[elder anchor]

also, do that

[river bison]

Yeah the Dytac is the top one

[elder anchor]

looks more like what my VFC is

[river bison]

Ah

[elder anchor]

really shiny bronze

[river bison]

It’s the same ish then

The HAO is more cerakote FDE or DDC

[elder anchor]

yeah

doesnt matter to me because as soon as i get my long one its getting sprayed

[river bison]

all you need now is a new pistol grip

and a B5 sopmod stock

[elder anchor]

yeah

fuck the A2

[river bison]

or a magpul

[elder anchor]

fuck crane stock

im sick of them

im gonna go with the PTS stock

[river bison]

why are PTS parts always oos

fuck man

[elder anchor]

and proly magpul grip if im feeling lazy

[river bison]

i need some PTS MREX shit

[elder anchor]

oos?

[river bison]

yeh

[elder anchor]

no idea

[river bison]

i also have the black one, all thew scar parts being sold are mostly tan

[elder anchor]

thats shitty

[river bison]

mmmmm

[elder anchor]

im gonna browse their website

i think they got some new shit up

[elder anchor]

aesthetic asf

[river bison]

im gonna have to give up the grenade launcher if i do this though hahahaha

but i love my GL

[elder anchor]

aw thats sad

[river bison]

it would be like this

[elder anchor]

but the H version

[river bison]

yup

[elder anchor]

sounds good

[river bison]

https://www.ptssyndicate.com/product-page/pts-kinetic-scar-adaptor-stock-kit-w-butt-stock

this one too is oos

[elder anchor]

fuck beat me to it

[river bison]

the fuckin original stock looks like a boot

[elder anchor]

yeah i was gonna say i was looking at different scar stocks

the ACR adapter is tight

[river bison]

yeh

lol now that i think of it

a bi tone scar would look cool

im also looking for an ARES SCAR SC

[elder anchor]

would be

[river bison]

to be HPA'd ofc

i like having long boi and short boi version of my shit'

like with the MK16/URGI, or the SAI GRY

i might also buy another mcx upper so i can put the 16 inch on it and turn the other one into a rattler

[elder anchor]

rattlers are sick

flat out

weird how there isnt just a version to buy

[river bison]

evike offers it for 120 dollars or so more

https://www.evike.com/products/96435/

[elder anchor]

trust evike

[river bison]

they got monopoly on this shit for some reason

[elder anchor]

airshit seems better and worse in USA

[river bison]

airsoft is better in terms of availability, except for some branded shit

like VFC Geissele shit

like your urgi

[elder anchor]

yeah that sucks ig

[river bison]

or the fucking G28

[elder anchor]

that sucks hard balls

[river bison]

the G28/HK417 is super rare here now

thats another on my bucket list

if i see one im gonna grab that shit idc if it costs 1k

[elder anchor]

if i go to the states for MSW il bring you one over lol

[river bison]

haha

B&T APC-9 is also rare

bruh i saw someone with it and thats a unicorn around here now

the issue is the customs people get uppity about shit

its like when ur trying to buy airsoft shit from asia its a crapshoot

i havent risked ordering from redwolf because of that

[elder anchor]

i ordered my geissele scope mount through redwolf

decent

[river bison]

man

i might just actually do it

[elder anchor]

yeah APC-9s are a dime a dozen here

[elder anchor]

what are you getting?

[river bison]

i was thinking a 417 but they are oos

or a TM MP7

and put a polarstar jack on it so i dont have to heavily abuse my GBB

my poor Mp7 is tired of being overused, i should also calm down with the full auto

ever since i got my drum mags its seeing heavy use, and my fuckin frame cracked and got repaired from all the abuse

i think next game im just gonna crank up the psi and just do semi auto

instead of doing sub joule full auto

i even bought a regulator strictly for the hpa tapped GBB's i have

[elder anchor]

fuck idk about HPAed GBBs

the whole mag thing seems painful

[sinful agate]

Hpa gbb is just like hpa an aeg, except the line connects to the mag instead of an engine

[sinful agate]

Replace the usage of gas with air

[elder anchor]

im fully aware how they work

[elder anchor]

the drum mag thing seems like the only sane solution]#

[river bison]

Yeah considering the fucking availability of the mid caps themselves

And even then this fuckin drum mag is rare now because of cost

The mags cost as much as the goddamn gun

The mags are 60 bucks each if you can find em

The drum mags can cost up to 300+

Not including the parts to make it viable for an actual airsoft game since the damn thing shoots too hot oob

CQB bolt is also rare as shit

I just happen to find it in some random proshop of some field in Tucson Arizona

[slate leaf]

where can i get pouches for cheap?

[river bison]

Which pouches

I would say Amazon

[elder anchor]

surplus stores?

[elder anchor]

pain

[sinful agate]

POV: you buy a gbbr but the mags itself cost 1/4 of the gun

[slate leaf]

i bought a jpc but it has no pouches so im looking for some for cheap

like 10-20

[river bison]

@sinful agate wouldnt be so bad if i had an m4 style GBB haha

and even then still annoying AF

because the EMG GBB ones can only take king arms and G&P GBB mags and so forth]

[sinful agate]

Even the tm mws mags are expensive and hard to come by

[river bison]

for real

i wanted an NGRS but it has that same issue

[sinful agate]

My friend can only find them in stock from HK websites

[river bison]

i wish they would make reliable EBB's

or EBB's that work with HPA and still keep the blowback part

[river bison]

ironically TM mp7 mags are plentiful

lmfao

and they sell offbrand compatible versions for it

hence my interest in grabbing one and putting an airsoftjunkiez P*Jack drop in on it

[elder anchor]

surplus stores

[warm zenith]

anyone got any ak12s?

[sinful agate]

@slate leaf

[warm zenith]

trying to figure out some sights that look good on them

[sinful agate]

1p87 looks great on an ak12

[warm zenith]

i got a arcturus

[sinful agate]

Nice

[warm zenith]

are those good

[sinful agate]

Yeah those are good

[warm zenith]

its got a mosfet in it too apparently

got it off evike

[sinful agate]

Yeah, arcturus is supposed to be better than lct

Especially the internal parts

[warm zenith]

Yea thats what i heard

[meager elk]

The Arcturus 12 with the mosfet is the next Airsoft gun I’m getting. I wish they had an sks, I’d use that for militia loadout at MSW.

[junior sedge]

Did you not check before buying?

[warm zenith]

thats the same one i got

[warm zenith]

I did just wanted to know if he or anyone else has used them hands on is what I meant

[junior sedge]

Anyway yeah they are solid

[warm zenith]

hoping so

i think im gonna get a fire field for my optic

[slate leaf]

can you dm me some links to some good ones that are cheap?

[slate leaf]

Yes, i have an Arcturus

Need any info on it?

I wanna get a PT-1 stock for it

I wanna make it like this

[hexed valve]

long boy

[rugged compass]

Anyone use amped airsoft r-hopped hopup and inner? I heard it’s really good and wanna know before I spend the 200$

[limber flame]

god the ak12 zenitco looks horrible

[hexed valve]

zenitco is ok on 105/104/102, on full length - there is better looking solutions

[slate leaf]

Nah. It looks good

[limber flame]

leader rail looks alright on full length

but the AK 12 one just looks ugly

[elder anchor]

full length ak rails are sick

i like the fucking grill handguard more than i like the ak12

[limber flame]

the leader rail is alright purely because of that drop for the perst

get hexagon handguard

[fast crane]

who do i sell dopgtags too

[slate leaf]

therapist

[limber flame]

how does this keep happening

[elder anchor]

ive got no idea

[junior sedge]

I died

[tulip sand]

this is tragic

[slate leaf]

Where did he get his helmet from?

[river bison]

@steel vale

[junior sedge]

From me

[slate leaf]

Brand? Shop?

[junior sedge]

It's a pasgt

[tulip sand]

he willed it into being

[junior sedge]

[royal wagon]

that’s amazing

[winged radish]

I wonder when they'll add these beauties

[limber flame]

no

(i hate pedotech)

[junior sedge]

[river bison]

[shadow flame]

Test

Good

[thin pasture]

yay finally

does anyone have kydex mag inserts? i have a few questions

[limber flame]

what questions?

[thin pasture]

well i'd like to get some

but -idk how to choose them -where to find them

[limber flame]

ah sorry
cant help you there

[arctic holly]

What country do you live in?

[thin pasture]

france

(no bullying pls ty)

[arctic holly]

I'll try my hardest

[arctic holly]

https://www.tactical-kit.co.uk/esstac-260-c.asp

There might be a distributor for Esstac in france but esstac are the go to brand for kydex mag inserts typically

and I know tac kit ships to the EU

[thin pasture]

i didnt think this through and uh

my mag pouches are the same size as my mags kekw

i shouldve bought smaller pouches

[arctic holly]

what mag pouches are you currently running?

[thin pasture]

(ik the colors dont match i couldnt find anything else)

[jolly fiber]

Warrior Assault Systems also sells in the UK and in other parts of Europe. Good stuff

[arctic holly]

looking at your current pouches they should work with maybe the haley strategic MP2 inserts (or an aliexpress knockoff)

but they already swallow your mags in their entirety

[thin pasture]

yeah i should probably buy pouches half the size

[arctic holly]

is there not a kangaroo flap behind where your mag pouches are?

[thin pasture]

idk what that is ;-;

[arctic holly]

okay so you see where there are three pull tabs above where your mag pouches are?

[thin pasture]

yes

these?

[arctic holly]

yeah see if you can pull those away from your carrier, the flap under them should just be velcro'd to the front

or see if you can pull the bit just under them away from the carrier

idk it's a jpc knockoff they should have a kangaroo flap

[thin pasture]

i dont understand where you're getting at

OH

i think i get it

you're saying i should get rid of the triple pouche and instead use the pouches that are already in the carrier

which have velcro which will be used to hold the kydex

yeah but the problem is the same, they are too deep

[elder anchor]

…

[sinful agate]

Oh no, I've been blackpilled

[thin pasture]

your chest rig looks so much like the strandhogg

[junior sedge]

Bro melted

[sinful agate]

Obi-wan if he got hit by a blaster

[mint trout]

its literally a 6094

or the LBX one

[limber flame]

probably the ARS ARMA version

i dont think lbt makes one in atacs

[sinful agate]

Yeah, what he said. It's basically a Russian copy of the American made LBT 6094 plate carrier

[elder anchor]

ARS ARAM 6094?

oh shit you said..

nvm

[tribal tree]

Not at all like a stradhog lmao

[zinc bramble]

Wonder how ir remission is on those

[sinful agate]

I can test that tonight

[river bison]

Strandhogg has laser cut molle

[limber flame]

and tubes

[zinc bramble]

You mean cringe

Embrace tradition

Return to monke

[honest meadow]

yo to any techs out there which would you prefer/ recommend over the other prometheus purple soft or the maple leaf MR hop

[elder anchor]

Prommy purple gold standard imo

[honest meadow]

just ccuz im going down to BZ tactical tmr and was thinking about getting one or the other to go with the Maxx hopup and other stuff

[honest meadow]

ty

[grizzled hill]

Is there any Mcx brands that are good as aeg and I don’t need to hpa to make good

I hear mixed messages

[limber flame]

no

theres only the VFC one

and we all know how shit the internals are on that one

[grizzled hill]

Oh shit I mistyped

Mpx

Not Mcx

I’m aware that one is shit

[river bison]

Honestly the MPX is easily upgradable

I would still lean towards HPA though

[grizzled hill]

I cannot afford this as I’ve gone over before

I’m collecting functional AEGs for fun basically

As long as they shoot straight I’ll use it

More in airsoft for the aesthetic

But ideally a decent internal is what I want

As I am still using them from time to time

[grizzled hill]

Which brand are you talking about in particular

[river bison]

VFC/pro force

[grizzled hill]

Ok

Thank you

[sinful agate]

Here is the test

Top is no ir, bottom has ir. Distance is prob 3ft

[zinc bramble]

hey its fine it looks like

[sinful agate]

My Russian snow jacket glow like a mf tho

That's with no ir

[astral oracle]

From left to right:
Flektarn from mil tec, czechoslovak vz97, original german flektarn, czechoslovak m65, black softhsell

IR only

[rapid wolf]

does anyone here have an arp 556 or an sr30

[hushed yoke]

digital mf's be like

[grizzled hill]

So funny!!!

[alpine oxide]

If you can’t afford to upgrade it but still want to buy it just be aware at some point regardless you’ll have to upgrade it simply because the internals are shit. Don’t waste your money on the sig pro force stuff unless you want it as a project gun imo. You’ll get a couple games out of it before something goes wrong

[grizzled hill]

I’m aware upgrading most things is a necessity that will come but right now I’m just collecting guns that I think are cool

I’m not super into airsoft as a game rn so I’m just collecting basically

I plan on project gunning a few of mine when I get stable income though

[elder anchor]

Go for the VFC then

Externals are always 10/10

[alpine oxide]

They’re fun guns to collect, I don’t know if external quality is same as the MCX cuz I had to open that up and use a lot of electrical tape to stop the upper wobbling and tighten a few screws here and there, other than that the guns are worth the hassle.

[slim osprey]

Do you think its worth getting a gun (under £180) of you cant upgrade it?

Or does it depend

[grizzled hill]

Last time my friend got a gun under $200 It lit on fire

Like the 2nd time we shot it

[elder anchor]

Don’t go around telling people that

[alpine oxide]

You can get some good starter guns for that price however id stick to rentals and just save for something that will last a few years

[elder anchor]

Specna arms.

If you can get an edge/edge 2.0 for under £180, jackpot

[river bison]

@elder anchor bruh

Short boi

[elder anchor]

Yo

It’s short

[river bison]

It’s so cute

[elder anchor]

Rlly is

The collection grows

[astral oracle]

I have specna arms m4 core... idk the exact model, half metal half plastic and it was for 120$
3 years later and still working fine
I got broken piston head 2 times and worn out hop up rubber but thats kinda standard wear i guess

[river bison]

I need to put this DD rail on the krytac now

[elder anchor]

Do like a nice mk18

You like to keep your shit pretty much pristine huh

All my stuff is battered, guns optics everything

[river bison]

Lol I clean it after each use but it’s also scuffed to a certain extent

I also never drop my guns

Or even put it on the ground

[grizzled hill]

[elder anchor]

Yeah my shits been thrown and wacked many times

Hence why it’s so fucked

I removed the sniper tape from the pistol grip and stock, looks a bit cleaner now

[astral oracle]

Wut sniper tape? Why would you call a tape sniper

[alpine oxide]

I bought a krytac trident second hand in 2018 with has a retail price of £370 and for the entire 4 years I owned it I had to replace the hop unit once only because I dropped it and a clip cracked. Like I said you can get some good guns cheap however you can get better guns by saving some money.

[elder anchor]

Sniper tape is tape used by snipers for camouflaging applications.

[astral oracle]

Of course, its also easier to sell a good gun than plastic cheappo

[river bison]

Time to get to work

Gotta replace the motor and springs first

Then bucking

Then handguard

[astral oracle]

Plastic cheappo will sell for like half of its original price while a decent gun thats atleast for 200 will only drop a few bucks from original price

[elder anchor]

Sounds fun

[astral oracle]

Thanks

[river bison]

Lmao I literally just got off a 24 hour shift and I’ve been awake for 30 hours

But I just wanna get this shit done

[alpine oxide]

Anyone here cerekoted their guns?

[slim osprey]

Is it worth putting grip tape on your guns?

[river bison]

@slim osprey if it helps you then yes

[slim osprey]

No i mean how grippy is the grip tape

Because i have never felt any

[river bison]

@elder anchor lol wow now for some reason my motor won’t spin

So random

[desert latch]

is the battery good

[river bison]

Yeah

[desert latch]

its it a m4

[river bison]

It was also working before while I was adjusting the motor height

Then it just stopped

I took it out of the grip to test if it will spin and it won’t

[desert latch]

ok so you might have pinched the wireing to the motor

[elder anchor]

AEGs

Always fun

[river bison]

Everything looks fine

[desert latch]

how long have you had the gun for?

[river bison]

Awhile

Lol it’s one of the AEG’s I got from my buddy

I haven’t touched it until now

Because I only do HPA

I made the motor spin but I had to replace the fuse

That’s so fuckin random

[desert latch]

ok so i would do is take the motor out of the gun and twist the gear head(the part with teeth) so see if it spins

[river bison]

Lol it worked then it stopped working

Fuckin AEG’s

Ok wtf

Apparently it’s burning my fuses somehow

[elder anchor]

Using 11.1v?

[sinful agate]

No MOSFET?

If nothing is regulating the currents, it can blow a fuse or burn out your trigger contacts

[river bison]

The krytac has a mosfet

Lol it burned another fuse

[sinful agate]

Do you have a multimeter, see how much current is going thru your wires

Could be a bad MOSFET not doing its job

Or other issue like short circuit

[river bison]

I think it might be the tamiya connector doing it

Because I see a slight spark on the battery connector

[elder anchor]

Yeah that’s it

[river bison]

Well shit

I’m honestly stumped

This is why I hate AEG’s

Literally all I did was change grips

[sinful agate]

Oof, I usually swap all mine to dean because I only have dean lipo batteries

[sinful agate]

For EU people who could never come to the US to attend msw. This is your chance

[honest meadow]

spain still kinda far ngl and spensiv

[limber flame]

shame spain expensive

looks like it would be awesome though tbf

[sinful agate]

It's next year so who knows, might get cheap tickets if you're early

[limber flame]

if youre lucky*

also sucks for uk peeps

getting your shit out of country will suck ass

[sinful agate]

I'm gonna see how many friends are going and prob go there for a week. 1 weekend for msw and the rest to explore Barcelona

[sinful agate]

What gun control does to a mf who doesn't own guns:

[grizzled hill]

Come to America

We use real gun in airsoft

Like real man

[sinful agate]

^ this actually

Msw allows blank fire guns to their event as long as you're 21

[sleek current]

My current load out

Full Ghillie
HPA SSG-10
SSX-23

[sinful agate]

They had to call ceasefire because someone thought they were actually getting shot by live rounds

[limber flame]

[grizzled hill]

I will eat your left leg

[limber flame]

no balls

[limber flame]

novitard guns

(cringe)

[river bison]

There I fixed it

I had to trace the whole wiring harness

There were some worn out sections of the wires because of how krytac buffer tubes pinch part of the wire

It will do for now

Kinda wonky looking @elder anchor

I happened to have a Kriss DS150 stock

Lying around

So I used it

[glacial drift]

You need a urgi

Geissele mk8

[elder anchor]

Scroll up

[elder anchor]

I think issue is acog

[river bison]

@glacial drift bruh

[river bison]

I’ll just use a red dot for it then

[glacial drift]

Put that handguard ok it

[river bison]

Lol what

[elder anchor]

Should look better

[river bison]

@elder anchor there

[limber flame]

swag

[river bison]

Now I can sleep

[elder anchor]

Looks decent

Good result

Go sleep

[river bison]

I should buy a tan eotech for this

At some point

[elder anchor]

Idk T2 suits it

Tan unity riser and you’re sorted

[glacial drift]

Put the geissele on the quad rail

Replace the quad rail with the geissele

[elder anchor]

Shush

[river bison]

Why would I do that?

I took off the DD rail and replaced it with a Geissele

And I put the DD rail on the krytac

Rather have both my urgi HPA rather than AEG lol

[honest meadow]

got the maxx installed before beginning to feel like a big boy now

[sleek current]

That's why I HPA'd it, the internals suck...

[slate leaf]

Got myself a Makarov

[livid canopy]

You know it

[junior sedge]

This is fucking glorious

[grizzled hill]

Finally got my grimy hands on a lct vss

The externals feel amazing

[novel fractal]

ima get one soon

[grizzled hill]

I haven’t tested it yet

Because ima be honest I haven’t even found where the battery goes

But the externals alone are so pretty and feel great

[junior sedge]

In the stock I'm pretty sure, if not it'll be in the dust cover

[grizzled hill]

Not dust cover checked

And the stock is a bit annoying to get off

But it’s probably in there

[junior sedge]

Check online before you rip it apart

[grizzled hill]

That’s the plan

[sinful agate]

Stock VSS and Val connector is located in the suppressor itself

[grizzled hill]

that sounds really inconvenient

[glacial drift]

Played airsoft with some guys from hrc

Sidenote he said he doesn't smile because he looks quote "r. tarded when I smile"

[rapid wolf]

what gun is this

[elder anchor]

Specna arms E23

[rapid wolf]

cool ty

is it full metal btw or is it polymer

[elder anchor]

Full metal

No one stocks them anymore though

You will do well to find one

[old latch]

Can agree, Specna Arms are great guns for the price, personally have one too, very happy with it

[elder anchor]

I’ve had two, both were amazing

It’s relatively easy

[junior sedge]

Got a nice and rare digi flora MVD fleece set

[elder anchor]

Very good

[junior sedge]

Very beautiful, very powerful

[river bison]

Lol I wish I did this short urgi sooner

When I was in my old field

[elder anchor]

Short URGI sick

[river bison]

@elder anchor i get the ergonomics and the less weight

the big boi is fuckin good but it feels more of a dmr these days

even though its 14.5 inches + the supressor

[elder anchor]

I’m getting the 14.5 URGI to make a bit of a more long range recon-ish kit

I’ve still not sent the little one back

Just doesn’t sit right with me having the LPVO on it

[river bison]

there's nothing wrong with that

[elder anchor]

I refuse to have two small URGIs

I ran the other one with an LPVO for a long time and now I’ve just gone off it

I require a long boi

Looked tight with suppressor

[limber flame]

get a 16"

(theyre hotter)

[elder anchor]

False

[tribal tree]

Awawa

[glacial drift]

Yes I did in fact meet THE billjoebobsteve

Also someone else who only talks in vt chat

[fast sapphire]

Question: im starting to get into airsofting and my budget is about 300-400 dollars and im wondering if you guys have any GBB rifles you would suggest to get as my first gun?

[glacial drift]

Obvious recommendation is the we g39c because they're super cheap and readily available

As far as i know they're really reliable too

[sinful agate]

which platform?

[fast sapphire]

?

[sinful agate]

what kind of gas blow back rifle? M4, AK, G36, HK, etc...

[fast sapphire]

oh

im thinking either m4 or ak

maybe ak-12

[sinful agate]

the golden standard for m4 is a TM MWS

[fast sapphire]

ak-74n

[sinful agate]

GBBR AK-12 doesn't exist. It only exist in custom made guns

[fast sapphire]

ill keep that in mind when looking

huh

[glacial drift]

Ak gbbrs are unavailable under 600, ak12 doesn't exist in gbbr, ak74n will run you a nice 800 dollars for one that isn't fucked

[fast sapphire]

huh

hmm maybe ebb ak

[sinful agate]

ebb ak is even worse

[fast sapphire]

ong

[sinful agate]

anything ebb is bad

[glacial drift]

Ebb ak's break a ton and are still expensive

[fast sapphire]

but ak sex

[sinful agate]

worse than regular aeg

[fast sapphire]

what type of ak do you recommend

[sinful agate]

that's a gbbr?

[glacial drift]

At that point might as well buy a AEG AK unless if you want to raise the budget

[fast sapphire]

aks expensive

[glacial drift]

Yeah because vfc doesn't make one yet

[sinful agate]

good gas blow back rifles ain't cheap, cheap gas blow back rifle ain't good

[fast sapphire]

yeah

[glacial drift]

If they started to make one ghk will have to fix their qc

[sinful agate]

If you increase your budget a bit then you can prob get the WE AK74N

[glacial drift]

We ak74n never restocks but they're 400 dollars msrp

[sinful agate]

Not the best, but certainly upgradeable to become reliable

[fast sapphire]

my budget is 300-400

[sinful agate]

It's the most expensive WE AK they have

[fast sapphire]

i can raise it

[sinful agate]

keep in mind that if you get the WE AK74N, you'll most likely need to replace the internals down the line

[glacial drift]

A used one rarely pops up but they're usually broken and worth around 400

[fast sapphire]

ok im thinking maybe an m4 is a good price

[sinful agate]

if u had a buget of like 1k I can get u hooked up on a friend that makes custom ak-12 gbb

[fast sapphire]

m4..m4

what type of m4

[honest meadow]

also is ur budget just for the gun or u trying to include mags aswell?

[fast sapphire]

just for gun

[sinful agate]

lol, def not gonna be able to afford mags for gbb with that budget

[fast sapphire]

i have a separate budget for attachments and mags

[honest meadow]

alr i was gonna say cuz mags are lkik 40-50 a piece haha

[sinful agate]

way more

between $60-$70

[honest meadow]

im talking gbp

so yea like 60-70 dollary doos

[sinful agate]

he's asking for a gas blow back rifles

[honest meadow]

ik

[sinful agate]

for m4 gbb, please avoid the KWA LM4

they're pretty bad

[fast sapphire]

ok

[sinful agate]

try and get a VFC or TM

[fast sapphire]

whats a mediocre m4

gbb

within my price

[glacial drift]

Depends on model

[fast sapphire]

300-400 usd

[glacial drift]

If it's for a m4 they'll be like 40-50 for a rarer gun they're 50-70

[fast sapphire]

wait

[sinful agate]

as far as I know, the TM MWS mags are between $70-$80 when in stock

[fast sapphire]

anyone got a good hk-416 or g36 gbb thats within my price range

[sinful agate]

GHK AK mags are $70 from Samoon

WE AK Mags are $70 from WE's website

so yeah, it varies but you get the general idea

not cheap

[fast sapphire]

?

[sinful agate]

"good"? not possible

[glacial drift]

There's a lot of gbbr m4's, a lot of them are 300-600, 300 there's vfc sr16, depending on where you live hk416 is 400-500, wa m4s are old but they're the cheapest at 250-300, mws is 600, mcmr is also 600

I wouldn't recommend any m4s that arent these 3 options a lot of them are bad or super expensive

Vt's are 1200 minimum so obviously not in budget

[sinful agate]

I wouldn't get anything other than VFC or TM in terms of getting an M4 gbb

[glacial drift]

Wa's have a ton of parts and are generally very mediocre

[sinful agate]

WE is something that I would avoid in terms of m4. But I have good experience with their GBB AK

[glacial drift]

Wont make for the best first gbbr experience but at least it's not a we or lm4

[fast sapphire]

lol i just remembered i have 3d printers so i can print stocks grips and other shit

[glacial drift]

It's not hard to find a old stripped down gun with no externals used

Could even be a old vt

[fast sapphire]

ok

[fast sapphire]

how much is that beauty

[river bison]

The MP7?

[fast sapphire]

yes

that sexy mp-7

[elder anchor]

WE G36

[river bison]

@fast sapphire A KWA MP7 goes for 250-350 these days but it needs a lot of work, I have like 1k invested into it

Most of it goes to the mags

Bought 2 drum mags for it which scout 200-300 each

[fast sapphire]

how much are the 40 rndrs

40 rndrs are plenty enough for me

[river bison]

Then the CQB bolt, the extended barrel, improved recoil spring

40 rounders are 50-70 bucks each if you can find em

They are rare as fuck for some reason

[fast sapphire]

how much is the rotor suppressor

[river bison]

I only have 5 of em that I could scrape up

[fast sapphire]

huh

what abt 30 rndrs

[river bison]

Even rarer

That’s why I bought the drums

Lol

[fast sapphire]

wtf

why tf is airsoft guns more expensive than real guns sometimes

seen an airgun go for 1,500

i can buy a barrett 5.56

[river bison]

@fast sapphire for real, with the amount of money I spent on this I coulda gotten an MCX by now

[glacial drift]

If you want an mp7 find a vfc mp7 V2 the other 2 have notorious cracking issues in the receiver that can only be fixed with a new receiver

Iirc comes with npas stock and is cheap at like 230-280 dollars depending on where you live

Main issue is sourcing mags

[limber flame]

(get the vfc)

[glacial drift]

Yes

Plus if it cracks (it will) it'll only crack the backplate which is easily replaceable

[river bison]

i agree just on the basis that the mags and parts are readily available

[limber flame]

and that the cooldown isnt as shit

[river bison]

i had to use some fuckin wizard magic for mine

@limber flame lol this is why i hpa'd mine

and i prefer it that way

[limber flame]

shitty cooldown is a kwa classic

[river bison]

so i dont have to spend so much on gas

[limber flame]

[glacial drift]

Also the fourth mp7 option is the we smg8 which is a piece to say the least

[limber flame]

it is a gun of all time

[river bison]

hpa tapping it is also the more reliable option since i can use it in any weather

and having access to the high cap drum mags

also being able to control fps/joules

fuckin all the mp7's shoot hot as fuck out of the box and needs a cqb bolt

and those are rare nowadays, i was lucky enough to find one

you can also use the cqb valve but it is easier to mess up and sometimes its unreliable

[glacial drift]

For kwa/tm btw

[river bison]

literally had to try 3 brands
