  6. ICS GLM Airsoft Rotary Grenade Launcher

    in Rifles (Gas)

    Posted · Edited by dynamic_e

    After 8 or so games the trigger pin area let go on me mid game, just as I as about to unload all 6 on a few squads.  The entire trigger assembly other then the pins is made of plastic...cheap abs at that.  What I did in a pinch was drill through the trigger frame and run an allen key as the trigger pin.  Other then that and the rails needing tightening every now and then, it's a pretty simple gun.

    FOr those of you that play night games, the holy grail of all players is a set of NODs. However, there is only limited information out there and the prices can vary to somewhat affordable to good lord thats alot of money. I'm going to review 2 common head mounted systems and compare Generation 2 to Generation 3 as well as give you some options on building your own to save some money.

    Here are two good ones that I wouldnt hesitate spraying on my face.

     

    I am registered for Op Blacksheep in a few weeks, but a insane business opportunity that just came up may conflict with the date. I hope not though.

  19. Permethrim: Bug Spray Treatment for Clothing and Gear

    With the weather warming up for those in the Northern Hemisphere, it's time to dust off your gear and get out and play! But also, for those that play outdoors, the bugs are also comming out. That means bumps, rashes, bites and even some crazy diseases like Lyme or West Nile Virus. SO with that said, how does one stop those pesky skeeters from eating you alive? It's all in the appropriate choice of bug repellant.

     

    There are 3 different kinds of repellants. One is your convential bug spray, such as OFF and Cutter(in the USA) These are nomally laced with DEET in varying quanities(which is the active ingrediant). They are easy to find and can be purchased in most stores. You can also get topical creams as well and many of the creams are made with more natual ingrediants, such as peppermints and eucalyptis which is ideal for applying to one's face. Pros are this is easy to find, can use the same day of an event, and are effective for a certain amount of time. Cons are inhaling chemicals, putting bizzare non natural chemicals on one's skin, and effectiveness only lasting a few hours before the chemicals wear off.

     

    The second kind of bug repellant is an active device. These are devices like the OFF Clipon. The concept is they have a small battery powered fan that circulates the bug repellant inside a small container into your vicinity. There are also "ultrasonic" bug repellants, where again, it is a small handheld device that repels mosquitos. Seems like a great concept, but flawed in it's implimentation. Pros are no excessive chemicals to inhale. COn's are limited functionality, battery powered, and once you move from one spot, your "fog" of mosquito repellant is gone until you stand still again and let the device keep emitting more repellant. Personally, I have never had any luck with these things.

     

    Finally, the last type(barring exterminating the bugs) is a passive garment treatment. This chemical is sprayed only your clothing and gear and the chemical bonds with the fibers of the cloth and is good for up to a few washes. The most common used is Permetheim. The military uses it to pretreat BDUs and many commerical clothing companies like Columbia and Ex Officio use it to treat garments as well. It needs to be sprayed on in advance and let dry overnight before use. Pros: Works very well, no odor after application, lasts on clothing for up to 6 washes. Cons: Deadly to cats, it's a neurotoxin, so make you you are covered up before you spray, cant use it the day of, needs to be treated in advance.

     

    Anyhow, that's my writeup on the different kinds of bug repellants as summer rolls around again and the biting critters are out to suck your blood! Hope this was helpful! .

  20. KWA LM4 PTR GBB

    in Rifles (Gas)

    Damn totally tempted to give one of these a try. I allready have a Marui EBB and it's super reliable, but have a desire for more noise and recoil. I've contemplated a asahi classic(I used to have an Asahi) but after getting the air rig and spending $50 + ship for each mag from japan, a loadout would put me over $1000 and I can't use them in semi only CQB games. A KWA with 5 mags would put me up around $600 which is alot but less then a classic.

     

    I read that a number of users are experiencing broken hop teeth. I wonder if this will correct that issue as it's made for KSC. I dont think the KSC hop is modified much from the KWA.

    Has anyone compared the performance of one of these to a lightly modified G&P WOC?

  23. Initial Impressions of the TM SOPMOD M4 AEG

    Anyone having an issue with the gearbox getting hung up on the antireversal? Running a trimmed pdi170 with a 7.4 and it's pretty flawless, but twice now the box locked up(totally seperate occourances, 6mo apart. I was shooting full auto, so I dont think it's from short stroking the trigger. I end up taking off the grip and motor and popping the anti reversal, but it's definatly not an ingame fix.

    Is your M4 a front or rear wire one? I may just keep my M4 and finish doing it up. As for the wiring, it's down to current draw. If you are running a relatively stock marui, 22AWG is probably on the edge, but if it is upgraded, count on getting something thicker to handle the current demands. 18AWG is probably going to be a better size. If you are running a front wire setup like me though, it will probably be pretty tedious running it through the front end.

     

    On those hornbill gears, how is the quality? With the parts availability now, I dont see a problem juicing this gun to higher FPS's
