  1. yes it is, it's a Lonex Flash-mag. I put it in for appearances sake only, as I don't have any TM Recoil M4 mags to hand. Good eye sir!

  3. After an extremely long build and preparation period, I'm happy to announce that PureSilver's TM Recoil SOPMOD M4 is FINALLY complete. In 2011 PureSilver came to me with this gun totally stock back when I worked at Pro Airsoft Supplies and from there we started the long and arduous process of making it the best TM Recoil M4 money can buy. While it wouldn't be correct to say that there are no TM parts left, PS and I have done our best to remove as many of them as possible, and this is the end result; http://i.imgur.com/H23zQdr.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Q4CA5Fa.jpg http://i.imgur.com/MAj8YDw

      The Magpul PDR's gearbox is attached to the receiver by four screws, and the screwholes at the back open directly to the motor cage. A "little" too much loctite and poof! Broken xD. Took hours to clean it all out!

      PC Dre's been wanting a new/working DMR-rifle for a while now, we were considering getting a DBoys SPR and gutting it to be cheap, but I persuaded him to splash a bit'o'cash and get a G&P instead.

  9. Friend might be buying a D-Boys gun! :o

      There must be some reasoning to this?

      I'm going to gut the internals completely and use only the externals, which are going to get sprayed! Nothing can go wrong! :o

      Oh damn, it's gone wrong already. It's out of stock, likely never to return.

  10. Are you using the stock Plastic selector plate? If so you can rectify the problem by either buying the expensive prometheus metal plate or by building up epoxy (I find Araldite Metal 2k works great for this) on the part of the trigger that gets blocked by the selector plate and shaping the lump so that it prevents the trigger from tripping the microswitch when on safe. I had to do it about a week ago to a TM SCAR-H for Wildecard.
  11. I heard that the HK street price was around $150
  12. But how does that assumption correlate with the initial retail price at Bunny Workshop and CRW Airsoft being $135, only slightly more than the M&P, before they were instructed to raise the price by Cybergun. Just yesterday, WGCshop listed the gun at $180, $45 less than the MRP! I also doubt the assumed reason mentioned a few months ago that Cybergun raised the wholesale price which caused the HK retailers to have to raise their prices - you know damn well that the HK retailers would not ship a gun they were making a loss on, they'd simply politely ask for more money or offer to cancel th
  13. It's showing as $225 now.
  14. Just because the Safety/Decocker moves when racking the slide, doesn't imply or necessitate a weak linkage or part, and assuming so seems odd and unnecessary. There is no evidence to suggest that Cybergun are paying anything for the licensing of the appearance and trademarks for this gun, considering that Cybergun already hold the license for FNs guns near-worldwide, and near-freely give KingArms and Chinaclone brands the ability to produce FN-style guns with "official" trademarks. Until I see evidence suggesting that Cybergun have to pay more to produce replicas of additional guns, or
  15. Hey buddy. An application of Cerakote "Midnight Blue" (H-238Q) with double hardener (12:1) is the closest "paint" finish to resembling a glossy blue finish. 18:1 is close to satin and 24:1 would be matte
  16. If you haven't already, contact BTC directly via their website for warranty assistance. http://www.btcairsoft.com/contact My recommendation for "base level" upgrades for a TM Recoil M4 are; SHS Gears Prometheus sintered bushings Angle of Engagement correction (preferably sorbothane) A fast High-Torque Motor (With Neodymium magnets) Those alone will deliver a substantial upgrade in performance and reliability. when combined with a SPECTRE, the gun's basically done until/unless you strip the piston.

      I have come to find that Automotive RTV/Gasket Sealant is the curative of choice, I expect two part epoxy might not give great results and it's damned permanent. The SP2022's magazines seem to be cooperating nicely so far...

      Well, they're sealed with black RTV silicone - and that took a couple of tries - so let's see how they hold up!

      RTV silicone works. But given enough time the silicone oil in green gas eats it away. I prefer latex based sealants myself as they last well near forever.

  23. The SHS gear set is a 100% copy of the stock TM gear set, so is an identical ratio of ~21:1. Trigger response and rate of fire will be unchanged when using it. You should swap to the SHS Gearset because the stock gears are very weak, made of cast zinc and weakly MIM'd steel. They withstand the force of the stock spring without issue, but on 1J+ springs, they can fail quite quickly. The SHS gearset is 100% strong, tough steel and should handle 1.5J+ springs without issue.
  24. The SHS gear sets are excellent value for money. SHS's MIM techniques are very very good so their MIM parts like the whole recoil M4 gearset are good and strong. A word of caution, a Neo-magnet can + an EG1000 armature (22-tpa) is a very powerful motor, but the rotational speed isn't that fast, certainly, it's faster than a "proper" frankentorque made with a 32-tpa Chaoli armature, but it's still pretty slow on a 7.4v battery. I upgraded an old CA G36 for a customer just yesterday, with a very high speed 13:1 gearset and an EG1000+Neomagnet and the trigger response and RoF were very good,
