  1. Umarex/KWA ones are at Fire support for £250. Greg.
  2. As stated before, I'm using Viper & Guarder pistol mags, no probs. Greg.
  3. I'm on a serpa. I find serpas to be great & have them for all the pistols I skirmish. I use Kings Arms & Viper pistol mag pouches. No problems. The mags look big, as the bullet length is long compared to a 9mm. However, they aren't particularly wide, if you get my drift, so fit most cordura mag pouches. Greg.
  4. They don't need to be 'upgraded', just fitted correctly. The readyfighter nozzle lacks the notches on the spring retaining posts & the springs slide off, causing the 'crushing' you have experienced. To save you wading through this thread, fixes include, cutting the notches in, super glue, crimping the spring ends to the post or a mixture of all 3. Back when I experienced the problem, Den Trinity & Readyfighter both had springs. Greg.
  5. Yup. I just used a hacksaw & a file to cut new notches in, about 40mm shorter than the standard position. Work took about 20 mins & turned out fine. I have done this a few times now, on 2 Maruis & my ksc. Greg.
  6. maybe you could convert it, usi ng the bits out of a mariu tracer or something? Greg.
  7. I may be wrong (a long time since I did physics) but I think this is normal: When the gas is cooler, it has less pressure & will therefore take longer to release from it's container. Thus lower pressure gas (due to temperature or not)will give less fps but more shots. Either way, like others, I only get one mag (40 rnds) per fill, what ever the temperature. Greg.
  8. You're dead right! As yet, no probs but having seen yours, I don't hold up hope for mine. I think mine may be lasting longer because I very rarely use auto. Who knows. One thing's for sure; having now written this, I guarantee it will go bang, the next time I use it. Greg.
  9. Like Kruck, I've done this a lot & it just seems to go in first time, every time. However, it was very fiddly the first few times. Don't panic! As Kruck says, the trigger goes in last. I sort of insert it, compressing the return spring by pushing the pivot point toward the muzzle. Shame you ain't closer to West London, you'd be welcome round the shed, it'd be done in a few minutes. Crimson will be happy to tell ya, how tricky it can be. We took it in shifts on one of his , sort of working on it until we got frustrated & swapping. Then, when I remembered the technique,
  10. Primary, mainly cqb, 5 mags. I haven't used it in woodland yet, as I prefer to snipe when I go out doors. This is why I plopped the 300mm barrel in & am working toward a 500fpser. Having said that, I think it would make a super 'outdoor' gun as it is in no way less accurate or out ranged by the aeg brigade. The only 'problem, is the low, ammo capacity, which can be a bit daunting, (for some) when faced with 500rnd hi-cap hosers. Greg.
  11. Now there's a good idea. Greg.
  12. The 200mm (not 220) barrel that I have been fitting, is a slightly modified TN, 6.04x200mm Berreta Auto 9 barrel, available from WGC for $25. I've adapted & fitted 5 of them now & the results have been surprisingly similar: +40 on the fps. I'm afraid I've not done any accuracy comparisons but it seems similar or slightly better than the stock 160mm barrel. It does not need a silencer, as it fits within the flash hider, with about 10mm to spare. It needs a little bit of 'file' work at the hop end & a new retainer notch. If you have a steady hand & a small file, it should ta
  13. It didn't need boring out or re cutting the threads or anything? Greg.
  14. Agreed. It made absolutely no sense to produce a bolt carrier that would out last the chassis it's housed in. Greg.
  15. Great, now he tells me! Greg.
  16. This item am poopest! I got mine yesterday & was not impressed. First disappointment was that it's non ferrous & gives the impression of being very fragile. Not good as this is the interface between the front of the gun & the bit that sticks out & often gets knocked! Definitely not good, if you want to slap a right big silencer on it. Then, the fact that both threads were damaged & needed cleaning up before it would screw onto the gun, or a silencer. & wouldn't it have been a better move to make it CCW? The more popular silencer thread choice? &
  17. 1, Yup. Galactica may have more info on this, as his 'early' model broke. I believe he may have now got hold of the later version. 2, Good news, where did you source it & how much? Greg.
  18. Thanks for the encouragement. Please remind me, is yours a KSC Jap, or KWA? At what range are you achieving sub 2" groups? & what gas & ambient temperature did you have, when you took those chrono readings? Greg.
  19. I don't think it's the bore mate. It's the length. However, I was surprised that your 200x6.01mm only gave another 20fps. As said, the 200x6.04mm tn gave an extra 40fps in 3 different guns. I wonder how the 200x6.04 would perform in yours. If we ever have a few hours to spare, we should give it a try. Greg.
  20. No idea but I got the one you saw on Thursday, from airsoft armory. I think they are Madbull & about £25. An alternative idea would be to mount it on top of a lazermax 'rail laser' clone. Last time I checked, they had them at RSOV, 'A.C.M. compact red laser mount for railed pistol', you'll find them under 'laser aimers', aiming devices', for $16.99. Like my 'madbull', they raise the sight above the pistol irons, about 11mm, not enough to co witness the flip ups. BTW, fitted the 300mm to my KSC & got the power up to about 455. Accuracy was interesting: 10 shot group at 20m w
  21. 1, Why don't you ask ready fighter? I suspect it's to cash in on folk who don't realise it's only the KSC Jap that fails & are stupid enough to blindly buy a replacement part, just because it's available. If you require more evidence of this, please, take the time look back through this thread. 2, As just said, if you are unsure of my advice, have a look through the thread. However, I was working on a KSC Tiawan during the week (Barrel swap on 'Crimsons) & can confirm that it is the 'non-Jap' nozzle. As said * please note, the thinner walled, fragile nozzle is deliberately use
  22. The Ready Fighter reinforced nozzle is intended for & only fits the KSC Japan version. The KSC Japan version is the only one made with a week nozzle, which breaks, when used with green. It has thinner walls than the others & therefore a larger diameter piston cup. This means that it's nozzle is not compatible with the others & vice-versa. Thus, the only option, is to replace it, with the ready fighter unit. Please note, that non-ksc Japs, DO NOT break, in conjunction with green & therefore, DO NOT require a reinforced nozzle. & I repeat, the Ready fighter reinforced
  23. I'd go with either but the plastic one is reported to break. Greg.
  24. Not specifically for the MP7. They wont need to, as they are the same valves, as used in other ksc guns such as the glock range. As for purchasing 'hi flow' mag valves, the same effect can be obtained, by knocking the legs out of the originals with a Dremel or file.. Greg.
