NonEx - be careful with the RAT custom as there were initial reports of cracking the receiver due to the steel carrier. Didn't here if RAT addressed it somehow or not, just thought I would share.

Uh...

My GHK AK is really nice but I had some jamming issues that were resolved with widening the bb feed lips and filing the chamber ramp. My G5 seems very nice but it has to continue to perform well before I can put it in the same class OOTB as Vipertech and KJW.

Sums up every GBBR manufacturer including WE, G&P, Bomber, INO, KWA, etc. Only Vipertech and V1 KJW M4 are the closest to 100% reliable OOTB.

Good review. VFC will be releasing very soon an aluminum carrier to increase gas efficiency and ROF. TSC already released theirs and the ROF did increase substantially...when it worked. My nozzle would constantly get stuck forward during semi and auto. Haven't really looked at it yet to determine issue. Just an FYI for those reading...

What is slightly? A 6.08mm or 6.13mm should drop it 15-25FPS or so. Increasing the bore size of the inner is my preferred method over modifying nozzle or dealing with the inconsistencies of the NPAS.

Wait what? A4 has a four position lower, where have you seen that?

From TMC, the steel parts are actually Crusader steel upgrade parts. Anyone know what grade of steel Crusader uses? edit: just commented on Crusader's FB page requesting type of steel used, probably won't reply...

The full steel Avalon MP5 is out at CWI and TMC. Who is getting one?

If you explain to jessica that you will bear the seizure risk, then they will ship. I decided against the purchase as I had too many other projects in the works already. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 2

I'm waiting for the DX version. Hopefully it fixes all the flaws of the original design.

Still waiting on Robert to confirm what is actually steel. I'm hoping it includes the carrier...glad I waited! All steel and C02 mags, what more could you ask for (rhetorical question, please don't respond)?

HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is these night and day reports regarding the VFC MP5 that keeps me from getting one. I have read more than a dozen posts here and elsewhere saying that once you replace the nozzle the MP5 was solid, then I read the same amount of posts saying that it is complete garbage. I will probably end up getting one and get all C02 mags as I just can't resist how sexy the VFC is.

From my research, the internals are good once you get the azimuth nozzle. The real problem is the magazine. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Well that is good news for sure. Not sure what they hope to accomplish seeing as how the kwa version is rock solid. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Have you seen the soon to be released WE MP7...what an abomination! The fully traded AFC 416 is not anywhere close to the VFC 416 in terms of externals. I am a fanboy of none, just so you know.

Well there is your problem Finbarqs! The WE will have *suitcasey* externals (trademarks) but possibly solid internals. The VFC has excellent externals but crappy green gas mags. I have read many positive reviews and negative reviews so I am sure I will drop it in the shopping cart when the UMP comes out (save a little in shipping).

Ordered about 10 items last Thursday and just now recieved an update saying that my package is in "Packaging" and will be shipped out March 2nd. It seems every new order I place, it takes them longer to pack and ship out. About a year ago or maybe longer (memory isn't what it used to be), I would order, pay and it would be shipped out within 24-48 hours. They are starting to be more like Evike...which isn't a good thing!

Not a WE fan due to bad experiences with parts shattering on M4 closed bolt, M4 open bolt, and AK. I have sinced moved to Viper for my AR addiction and GHK for my AK addiction. Now looking for a way to placate the HK urges...

Maybe use the Dangerwerx low power flute valve? It should really drop the FPS on GG and put it at the sweet spot on C02, thoughts? I am so close to buying the MP5, I just want to make sure I have some recourse in lowering FPS on C02.

OK, I have been looking for low flow TM valve's but I can't find any as they all seem to be extra power valves. Can someone point me in the right direction? I did find this: http://www.wgcshop.com/wgc2008/main/product_detail1.php?search_From=searchItem&item=AZI-PT-VFCMP5CB&search=special&rs=vfc mp5&catid=&cat= It comes with two springs for different power levels. Looks like one has one less coil than the other so I'm assuming the one with less coils is lower power? If that is correct, could I just keep cutting coils until 350FPS is reached using C02 mags?

Nice. Any idea if it takes AEG barrels and rubbers?
