  1. Glad I'm not the only one who went for the King Arms Thompson comedy load out. Was asked to be the team leader for a themed game we were holding and decided to follow the words of my old Scoutmaster: "What's worth doing is worth overdoing"
  2. I'm somewhat interested in making a gas blowback version of one of these: https://www.wgcshop.com/products?search_From=searchBrand&item=el-aimr-aeg-platinum-version&search=special&rs=searchBrand&catid=&cat=&view_choice=b WGC also sells the AEG front https://www.wgcshop.com/products?search_From=searchBrand&item=e-l-r-outer-barrel-assembly&search=special&rs=searchBrand&catid=&cat=&view_choice=a Anyone know how feasible this is, starting with a WE 74U? Don't have a mill or lathe, so it would be hand tools and Dremil. Thoughts?
  3. A few of my less serious moments (although those who know me would probably wonder if and when my more serious moments actually happen)
  4. Probably not the case, but I've had issues with hi caps where the outer barrel rotates slightly so the bit that sticks down along the side of the hop up chamber doesn't allow it to seat properly. But that should just be the barrel and shouldn't affect the slide. Never mind.
  5. Yes. Just a tiny bit of filing on the forward horizontal part Edit, so as not to double post: Wolf, investigate trigger over travel. I had some grip safety issues similar to what you describe when the trigger was traveling too far. Went away after I added my trigger spacer.
  6. I ended up solving the Detonics/Kimber barrel issue with less than 10 seconds of filing of the barrel. Appears to work now. Going to order a whole bunch of bits to finish it off. Especially a steel hammer. As the stock Chinese pot metal hammer is looking in quite rough shape despite me only hand cycling it, and firing about 1 mag through it. Wolf, for a lot of helpful information on the Mafioso kit, see the thread I linked to in my earlier post.
  7. An expensive day today. Well, actually, an expensive day a while ago, but arrived today. Mafioso Hardballer Long Slide full kit. Clone Detonics with King Arms steel Kimber slide. To be more fully upgraded as time progresses. Both not without problems. Having a hammer problem with the Hardballer (http://arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/216638-mafioso-hardballer-long-slide-problems/) The outer barrel that comes with the Kimber slide binds when the slide is in battery. Works perfectly with the stock Detonics barrel. I'll need to file down the tab on the outer barrel
  8. As far as I can tell, it is only for US members. Something about a username and password that I've not been able to figure out. Seemingly no problem for other countries
  9. Thanks! This will be very helpful in my further investigation. Looks like it is as I suspected, that there is no explicit linkage between the selector and the hammer mechanism, and semi/full auto is governed by the length of trigger travel.
  10. How does semi auto work on this thing? The full story: As I wait for my P90 to arrive from Uncompany (Thanks Bankz for the sale tip), I found a used, non-working one for sale. It said it wasn't shooting, but since it was going for less than the price of the mags, I figured I'd give it a go. In that it is used, I have no idea what has and hasn't been done to it. But I do know that it was disassembled, since the previous owner painted the tan stock black. He also installed one of the trigger bar spacer things, except installed it on the wrong side of the bar. As a result of all of t
  11. So, after the gun sat on the shelf for a while after this problem cropped up, I picked up the gun a few weeks ago. After doing a bit of racking the bolt and dry firing to see if the problem would appear, the hammer spring broke. Just finished swapping to a new one, and as of yet, the problem hasn't recurred. I'll let you all know if the problem comes back, but for now I'm chalking it up to hammer spring degrading until it finally broke.
  12. If you'll entertain a brief aside: where does one acquire .28g tracers? I only remember seeing up to .25g. Thanks.
  13. I realize that this is unrelated, but I fit an airsoft AEG gas tube rail to my WE GBB with no mortifications. May be possible on the GHK as well.
  14. I was tempted to try the barrels alone and the valve alone but once I started taking apart I decided that I wasn't enthusiastic enough to deal with the complicated disassembly more
  15. With the SAT valve and the SAT tightbore barrels, I chronoed at 355 with .25g BBs
