a pic of my gun lets see.... ah heres one of my SA80

day off from airsoft scotland or giving away trade secrets? EDIT: BTW frenchie what SHOULD the academy piston look like? two winged guide slots or one ?

thats weird mine definetly has one either side with "wings"- i was on a break from swapping my v6 parts back for the academy ones when i posted. maybe academy have different parts in different batches? I know mine was the one academy supplied cos it took me 10 minutes of turning and fiddling to figure out that the big silver "screw" was just an anti-tamper bolt. Darklite: you dont need the m16 hop for 1j (although I haven't skirmished mine yet -ask again on monday) and with a 1j/m100 Id be thinking of putting in a FAMAS eg560 motor as i really doubt the academy has the oomph to turn it o

V2/3 may work (hell it did for sid) but V6 gears DO NOT WORK Neither will the piston- the v6 gears are very slightly different to the acadamy gears, this means that the gears do fit but they lock in and dont turn. the academy gears seem okay for a stock tm spring(in all 30 minuites/300 rounds ive put through mine) but the MP5 FTK would seem the way to go for 328+/- fps on guide slots: if the famas only has one then the piston is useless in an L85(well mine anyway) as the piston in the l85 has two guide slots with "wings" on the back end.

Im not sure if you have to, but I would(and will- eventually). Sid theres something that you missed in the review mate- airsoft scotland have the hi-caps for this wee beastie. (and I have 2 as soon as there deliverised)

the menu bar is back. the site actually loads. I am in heaven. now how about the ticker thingy from the top of the frontpage?
