  1. As rolling-thunder said - Look closely, you'll notice the magnets are on just about everything other than the lower receiver I've got the kalash AKS74 which is very similar.
  2. Not a PMag but still a 20 rounder Super-Uber-l33t-Sn1p3r-M249: (don't worry it went back to being normal after that pic )
  3. Nice guide on making a decent P90 sling :)

  4. Fantastic pics, really nice photography The event looked a lot of fun
  5. Nice review, looking forward to reports of field testing, what this thing is like on accuracy, range and consistency through an entire mag. I nearly bought one of these but then I remembered in time that I'm useless as a sniper
  6. I had a go on the WA M4 the other day. I must say the recoil is much better than I expected, truly a nice experience to shoot it. The gun doesn't feel right without a mag in, way too light. I noticed I could hear a slight twang on the recoil spring as it fired but it was of no big concern. The owner told me he only loads 20 rounds per mag as any more (in typical Isle of Man weather) causes problems. Sadly before we could shoot it much more it broke - some problem with the hammer not locking back (has since been fixed). Reading through (a good portion) of this thread, the gun has
  7. I'm surprised it took as long as it did for radiusing to be mentioned. Yeah the OP was a bit biased in his but that's understandable as it needed filing to go together properly and then broke almost instantly And if the gearbox isn't radiused, get that file out even if your putting an M90 in there As for getting 3 of the same product before to passing judgement on something? I'd like to see someone suggest that to... ohh say the guys in the WA M4 thread.
  8. Problem is the * doesn't always return the correct results for various reasons. As for modifying the code that's not a biggie as there's just an IF statement blocking the search, for example (and in English): X = 3 IF (length of search string is LESS THAN OR EQUAL to X) THEN bounce user to "search string too short" error message ELSE action search END of IF statement X just needs changing to 2 or whatever, you get the gist
  9. Once these aftermarket parts are made by someone and the gun can be structurally sound someone needs to then make a CO2 regulated powered mag - not for any extra power but so the gun can (potentially) fire off an entire mag in one burst. Would certainly peak my interest then
  10. Very true, for example if you're prepared to deal with a SP M16, it's a very nice gun, sure they're a hassle but then they are a classic airsoft gun that's something like 12 years old in design. Once you got the hop-up mod and 3rd o-ring in the valve they're much better - until then they're unskirmishable. The 3rd o-ring helps with consistency so the gun can shoot more than 5 rounds without sending them all over the shop . But like you say it's all about what you're prepared to deal with. Mind you the great thing about an SP is that it takes AEG mags and doesn't suffer cool down when run on
  11. The SP guns are great but Escort's been in a bit of trouble lately, special thanks to everyone's bestest mate SniperX Best place to pick up an SP is at http://www.classicairsoft.org/forum/index.php but you'll be lucky to find a 416 going for sale, they were made to order. If you decide to get an SP then make sure it's got the hop-up mod installed and a 3rd o-ring in the valve - ideally you want the vavle to be brazed also edit: vtb beat me to too, nice review btw
  12. ah cool the labelling looks great! I hear that they're developing a 44mm diameter 90second smoke grenade! Sounds extremely promising if it's anything like the current ones. My only concern is when will we see coloured smoke? As we can't use white/grey,black or any distress colours at our site and so far the spectrum smokes are only available in white I'm hoping they address this soon as practically everyone at our site is wanting to buy their smoke grenades No worries RSM your video's are cool, I find the biggest issue is actually the sound; it's hard to convey the volume and imp
  13. Yeah the bigger thunderflash was definitely the louder of the two for us. Here's the sample pack I got with my order. I'm told the labels are still being printed up so I got an email telling me which were which: I'm also told that the 3 & 5shot stun grenades have since had their timing delays speeded up I would really like to see an even bigger smoke grenade but the "Large Double vent" was extremely impressive, something the size of the standard military smoke grenades I can see producing a massive and impressive smoke screen I weighed them all up before te
  14. Yeah that's the one Nah I'll post my comments in here, better to keep it all under one roof I had the fuse fall off on me with the "large crack distractor" (Crackle Distractor). Not quite sure what happened but I lit the fuse and it dropped out the top. I was able to relight it with a lighter I carry just for pyros The flash grenade failed to go off properly for us though Actually here's the video we took at the club today - It wasn't meant as any kinda of review, just demo'ing it all to the guys so we can sort out which ones we want to buy Oh the ball grenades (ou
  15. We tried the sample pack out at our club today and I tested the temperature of the large double-vent smoke grenade two seconds after it stopped. It was barely warm at all The ground was a little scortch from the fuse. I love the coloured fuses and the re-cappable striker system is great. I wish the ball frag grenades were a little heavier, another 10-20g of dried peas would do it. The large double-vent smoke grenade produced a fantastic cloud of smoke in no time at all. Just hope they develope a super-huge large double vent smoke edit: forgot to say, the ball grenades; we used
  16. He means your webbing...you know that stuff you never wear What is it? You stick your airtank in a VN grenade bag? Anyway, I got some bits from Daytonagun as well, they are impressively well made and extremely high in quality. I'm considering getting some more bits
  17. MadDog's recently got one of these having had a TM 552. It's impressively built, nice and sturdy. His came out the box doing just over 360fps.
  18. Nice review. I've wanted a full metal + wood AK for a while now, I'm going to have to get one of these!
  19. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMXCuW9LDps thankfully this doesn't happen to me... the cat does it to my girlfriend
  20. lol, for some reason it was stuck in my head that that mag only took 30 bbs Anyway I'm able to fire off all the rounds in the mag and still have some gas left over for a few more 'dry' shots.
  21. I got one of these the other day, it's a lovely peice. However I managed to break mine on the first day (though it wasn't too hard to fix): when you pump it back the mechanisim hits a small arm which rotates the chamber down for loading, this little arm made of diecast monkey metal broke. I replaced it with a bit of aluminium I roughly fashioned to fit and now she works fine I'm very pleased with mine (despite the part breaking). I'm going to try and see if I can increase the tank size; all that space in the stock going to waste - going to be tricky as the hammer mech is right there.
  22. Having fired this very gun I can say; it's definately very nice. The stock and foregrip are especially nice to hold as they have a rubberised finish/feel to them. Personally I wouldn't pay that kind of money (lol $200? she's not going to read the forum, come clean Al!) for a custom gun such as this but then I'm definately not the type of person that would ever ever do that anyway I think the reason the recoil is higher is because there's significantly less weight at the much shorter front resulting in it balancing much better in your hand. It's one helluva an experience to fire, short b
  23. You can get batteries that go in the upper M4 foregrip area, http://www.wgcshop.com/pcart/shopper.php?i....6V%20Batteries I've got that one from years ago but couldn't use it on this one as the heatshield is too narrow so I had to use a stick battery. This should work fine if you want Ni-Mh: http://www.wgcshop.com/pcart/shopper.php?i....6V%20Batteries The only issue is that you need to file/cut a little section out of the M203 in order for the battery to go in, as seen here:
