  1. I've a 10.5 dytac from Ebaybanned on my socom and I've never had any problem fitting flashiders/supressors/barrel extenders on mine .
  2. sorry left i out its a mich 2000 cover , but this is what it looks like on an airframe ;
  3. I have the Emerson cover on my airframe and my mate has the genuine crye cover , have to say the difference in colour is marginal . I also cut and re-stitched it over the gap between the two shells to match the crye .
  4. Been running my socom on a 7.4v 2600mah 30c for over 18mths with no problems at all , gearbox is totally stock though i did fit an eagle6 spring which took it up to 325fps'ish .
  5. Sorry mate don't know we're to get the batt adaptor from , I've removed the quick change gubbins from my sopmod's and soldered a deans on to them so I can run cranestock batts in them .
  6. No worries matey , I run all my TM recoils on 7.4v lipo's (like most recoil owners I think) there equivalent to a 9.6 so you'll be fine . But to be honest I think you'd be better off converting to lipo , any way nimh are SOOOO last year !
  7. Can't be a dirty mag issue as they all feed empty in my scar , socom and second Sopmod .
  8. On the problem of non feeding my Sopmod won't feed the last ten or less bbs out of any of my mags , feeds fine until you reach about twenty or so bbs in the mag and it starts miss feeding then when it reaches the last ten bang won't feed any of them at all . have tried three different receivers on it and it happens with all of them so looks like the problems with the lower .
  9. Was going to but a very experienced TM recoil owner at one of my regular sites fitted his sopmod with one , range was amazing but accuracy wasn't worth squat , he tried several different hop nub types but none really improved the accuracy from it .
  10. Haven't got any info on the subject but all I can say is what I actually experienced which was an increase in RoF and trigger response when I changed from tamiya's to Deans . One down side I did note was my old nimh battery's did die quicker but I changed to Lipo shortly after I swapped the connectors so no big thing .
  11. I definetly had a slight increase in RoF after I changed to deans . If you just do some googling there is info out there listing the better flow rate through deans compared to tamiya's , read one of the main reasons was to do with the larger surface area on the deans spades compared to the tamiya's little pins (makes sense ) .
  12. if your not confident at soldering is there any chance you can find some one at your site who could solder it for you ? (Do they have a marshal there who fixes busted guns during game days ? Most sites do ) . Or even buy something like one of these ; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Deans-Connector-male-14-AWG-Silicone-Wire-160cm-long-/390403158356?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item5ae5d77154 And put some male/female spade connectors on the wires so you can run deans (I did much easier ) , the current flow is so much better with deans , tamiya's are shocking compared to them .
  13. In that case get one of these matey , I've got one and as long as your not a ' trigger h***e' it'll last you all day .Cracking little bit of kit . http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/gandp-peq15-box-with-7-4v-1800mah-lithium-battery-black.html
  14. Ah fair enuf , I just got the idea that your were asking in preparation for getting one not you already had one . To be honest mate I'd say its going to be a right nightmare I've been running them basically since they came out and I wouldn't want to try and wire the socom to the back .
  15. Have to ask mate , why ? If you don't want the batterys in the front and you want to use 'normal' batts in the stock instead of the crappy powered quick change ones just rip out the quick change adapter and solder on a connector to run normal batt's in the stock instead .
  16. Wasn't ment as a dig , just yours was a bit of a 'vague' post to say the least . I have three M4 types and two other TM recoils and the only problems I've realy had with any of them was with a second hand one that was the result of a botched up-grade by the previous owner , and the point of this thread is to help other owners with information on the platform . So that's why I asked for more information what your problems were . Wasn't trying to be a 'clever bottom' ;-)
  17. More detail why would be helpful matey , otherwise bit of a pointless post really wouldn't you agree ?
  18. He's rogered then ! He's rogered then ! ;-)
  19. as long as nothings new with the receiver threads or barrel mountings I'd have thought Ris yes barrel no .
  20. Exactly my thoughts , my Scar was so much more smoother than my socom/Sopmod so I'm hoping the 416 will be better again .
  21. Medic , give it a rest mate people reading this thread want to hear about the TM416 not arguments about different platforms , if you want to start a discussion on the subject start another thread . Ginga , can't wait for the in-field review matey , I own 5 TM EBB's and am itching for another !
  22. I use an old hand cranked singer my self . when I took it in to the local sewing machine shop to get it repaired a couple of mths ago the guy in the shop couldn't find it on his model list so he did a bit of research , turns out reason he couldn't find the serial No was its 115yrs old ! Absolute beast of a machine will punch through most jobs no problem . Best thing is look on eBay and you can pick up a similar machine for not a lot of dosh . thing I really liked about it in the beginning was its really controllable for a novice , you don't need to worry about it 'running away ' from you like
