    AGM M4 GBB

    speculation on my part as I haven't fitted that setup to confirm one way or the other, but: 1 I'd expect issues with level of the top rail versus the upper on the rifle (which is going to be all the more noticable on that style of front set where one is meant to be a seamless extension of the other) 2 using the barrel nut supplied with that front end you'ld most likely need to move over to a thin shouldered barrel, and away from the thick shouldered WA style barrel that AGM use on the 061/062 models if you opt to go the other way i.e. a standard KA RIS where normal AR delta r

    3rd option for a buffer tube would be to get someone to thread you one from mild steel tube, pretty sure the thread dimensions are somewhere in the thread (probably around sometime in July) only other issue is that you'ld need toget them to fabricate a new multiposition stock block for under the tube too as you need it in carbine config (chap who posted the thread dimensions was fabbing a tube for a fixed stock rifle) if you go with a new lower you'ld really need to buy it along with an upper as theres very few 'cross manufacturer' pairings of upper and lower that work on the WA platform

    pull back the delta ring and take off the lower ris panel and you can access the hop adjuster drum theres a slot cut in the base of the outer barrel that lets you access it to swab the hop rubber knock the rear take down pin out of the way withdraw the bolt carrier and have at it with a cotton bud thru the ejection port do you mean the long square profile plastic part under the loading nozzle assembly - if so thats the bb pickup that strips BB from the mag by sounds of it you need a new loading nozzle assembly PM me regarding any bits n bob I should have spare front sight and lo

    most likely cause for your low FPS is the positive pressure system being used in the ACM nozzle (either on its own or in combo with a greasy hop rubber) positive pressure - the flute valve inside the nozzle is held forwards in the closed position with a spring that sits behind it - the pressure of a BB sat in front of it is what should then hold it open to route gas for firing you chamber a BB - if it sits slightly too far forwards then theres nothing to act against the flute valves spring and push the flute valve open if you have a greasy hop rubber theres no grip on the BB as

    the uppers are close but not directly interchangeable you'ld need to mod an AGM upper a little by looks of a test fit the problems are with alignment of the rear pin - it doesnt get down deep enough to pass thru the ACM receiver you could open up the hole in the rear tab of the AGM upper or you could take material off the lower edges of the rear of the AGM upper to let it sit a little lower second option would probably be best it'll ensure that the bolt carrier gets a straight path into the buffer tube I wouldnt reccommend doing it the opposite way around (AGM l

    @ mutikasha, aye you can thumb the safety back to semi to disengage the hammer lock but you leave yourself with the issue that the hammer lock is a bit of a hair trigger on a lot of these rifles, if it fails to do its job it won't need to be tripped by the bolt carrier, and if the unmodified selector is on auto then that 500 FPS DMR will fire auto @weekenny, personally Id leave it decocked with selector on semi, less stress on the hammer spring the reason its like that is it follows the fire controls of the real AR

    turning the bolt carrier into a semi-auto carrier doesnt turn the rifle into a semi auto one, it turns it into a full-auto selectable rifle that will lock its hammer up after first shot on auto and needs switched back to semi to clear you're better off modding the selector to remove the bump that disengages the semi auto sear (that will ensure that the selector is always set to semi no mater which of the two settings you turn it to) ,

    2 yep the receiver is a lot chunkier construction than that on a typical AEG M4 4 To be expected. When you fire the gun and the mag valve gets depressed the triangle bit is a valve lock - that pops up and locks the valve open. The valve then stays open till the bolt carrier runs over the top of it during blowbacck and forces it back down - the valve can then spring back to its fully extended (closed) position. When you run the mag out of gas then the bolt cant recoil after the last shot, doesnt run over the valve lock which leaves the valve lock engaged when you remove the mag. 5 ye

    not sure the G&P bolt carrier is one worth buying, its nice enough for a stock part supplied with a rifle but its still ultimately just a diecast bolt carrier and folks still have a tendency to swap it out. I'd be more inclned to stick the cash to one side and see how much mileage you get out of the standard carrier supplied with the rifle, though that does leave you with prospect of a bit of a delay waiting for a new bolt carrier to arrive as a seperate order if you run with the ACM one untill it breaks.

    trivial between the bolt catches on the AGM and JG bottom line all three guns are full of cheap *suitcase* that shouldnt be relied on. You might hit lucky you might not, best to budget for not hitting lucky. Of the three Id buy the ACM cos the parts worth keeping on it are greater in number than parts worth keeping on the other two receiver is metal with decent fit (JG is plastic), can take off the shelf buffer tubes if you fancy a different buttstock (AGM is non standard), better defined threads on upper receiver (AGM arent cut as nicely), less wobble on the RIS, takes any off

    tbh design differences at that level are trival - the ACM uses a one piece steel bolt catch the others use one with an insert

    isnt that an AGM062 though? (he was asking about the ACM)

    if you're going with a larue free float system then you'ld just use the free float barrel nut supplied with it no need for a conventional barrel nut the one I used I pinched from an element delta ring assembly that would be same as this one (the delta ring is alloy I just pinched the steel barrel nut from it) http://www.gunnerairsoft.com/catalog/produ...roducts_id=1153 re the larue handguard length are you sure you want a 9" barrel along with a 9" handguard? fit the two together on one rifle and Im pretty sure the front of the LR will extend far enough to cover even the fl
