  1. I just run a G36C with interchangeable front sets, inner barrel stays C-length; I don't see any need to change the inner barrel length it seems to have good range as it is (and fellow skirmishers have commented as such mid game too!) Planning to upgrade it to a tight-bore to get a bit more accuracy but apart from that its fine. This way you can fill any role you like in a matter of minutes provided you have the parts to swap over.

     

    Yeah, that does sound like a good idea, and then the money i would have spent on the new gun could go to moar parts. The inner barrel thing was worrying me but i guess once i have the bits if I see a need for a longer inner barrel i can get it.

    cheers

  2. Gah! I cant decide!

    I already own a g36c, I want to get another and make it either a KE or an E, but i cant decide!

    Full length barrel or K length?

     

    and then, once that dilema is sorted, Solid stock or no?

     

    sigh..

    Do people find the full length barrel long and cumbersome? or is it okay?

  3. Again just like the RS version there is no safety as such; there is just the de-cocking lever where most guns have the mag release.

    The lever puts the hammer to the half cocked position.

     

    To remove the slide pull down the front lever (say hello to ksc logo) and pull the slide off.

    once the slide is off you can acess the hop up and adjust it with the tool they gave for it

    There is no slide release lever so; once you have fired the last round and the slide is locked back, to put the slide forward again you need to remove

    the mag and a;put a loaded one in or b; leave it out and then you pull back the slide and let it go.

    dscf1584ie1.jpgdscf1587yh1.jpg

    Now i have come across one problem, if the slide is back and you put in a new loaded magazine the first bb has a tendency to pop out of the top. If you

    are holding the gun upright then its not a problem. However if the gun is on its side or something then the bb will start rolling around on the inside and

    just generally get in the way. Solution to this is make sure the slide is forward when loading.

    Impressions;

    Pros: Its small, its very pretty a great finish to it, great sights, not bad accuracy, more shots in it than a revolver (another boot gun choice). Fun to shoot.

    considering how small it is velocity wise it seemed okay. havent put it through a chrono but at 7m it was passing through a cardboard box without problems.

    Cons: The grips are very plasticy I dont like the feel, not good for a primary-back up (if that makes sense) due to small mag size and the slow reload time. Also

    the problem with the bb coming loose when reloading.

     

     

    Cos everyone likes numbers;

    Looks:5/5

    Accuracy:3/5

    Range: unknown

    feel of the gun: 3/5 at the moment, with new grips then 5/5

     

    Overall considering what i wanted out of it im quite satisfied. just need to get some new grips.

  4. Okay so this is the first review ive ever written, I hope its okay.

     

    I was in the market for a small last resort boot gun sort of thing and this is what i chose;

    dscf1557rd7.jpg

     

    The P230 by KSC. On the outside the box looks pretty cool, like they are aiming for a bit of class...

     

    Open the box and heres what you get;

    dscf1559dx2.jpg

     

    The usual boring styrafoam inset thats made to fit a bunch of other guns too.

    It also comes with the manual, ksc pamphlet, a weird loader, some bbs and the hop adjustment tool (a very small alan key).

     

    On to the gun its self;

    dscf1563ji7.jpg

    What can I say? Shes a beautiful gun. The finish on the plastic looks very good, no obvious seamlines. The grips however are fail. they

    arent eved rubberized plastic they are quite hard.

    Weight; well its a small gun and mostly plastic so its not really so heavy at all, no suprise there. There are few actual metal parts to it (just

    the mag and the internal machinery).

    dscf1572si0.jpg

    dscf1574ga7.jpg

    It has all the markings on the sides very lightly engraved in to the plastic. (with an additional Sig Sauer logo on the magazine)

     

    dscf1569ho7.jpg

    The sights are great, they are very easy to use.

     

    The gun holds 12 rounds in one magazine, the mag holds enough gas to fire off about 2 and a half mags worth of bbs.

     

    Accuracy; I fired 12 rounds from 7 metres away and here are the results;

    dscf1598zg1.jpg

    The grouping is (discarding the further most flier up the top) 6.5cm by 4 cm

    This wasnt shot terribly scientifically; i was just resting the gun on a table and holding it with my hands, so it was probably not

    completely still.

     

    From such a small gun not too bad id say. not perfect but good enough.

     

    range im not sure, i havent had the opportunity to test that yet.

     

     

     

    Operation of the gun;

     

    Using the weird loader:

    dscf1595yp5.jpg

    Its a similar idea to the loaders you get with AEGs, so yeah, stupid. Best to use a speed loader.

     

    Just like the RS version to remove the magazine the lever is on the bottom of the gun, not the most convenient as you need to pull

    the mag out before getting the next mag ready (rather than being able to drop one mag with the gun hand and with the other hand

    getting the next mag ready). But that is (according to wiki) one of the criticisms people have of the RS one.

  5. Heh, yeah i got it in a little country town model shop here in japan (yes i am in japan).

    I go out that way to meet a friend then head in to the hills to play. The guy who runs the shop is this reall sweet old guy who after i bought the gun (he was happy to see it go, it was collecting dust on the shelf) he took me out and bought me lunch.

     

    actually, that leads me to a question: since this gun has obviously been sitting there a while is there any problems i might expect from it because of age? (like the hopup rubber or somethin') It seems to be performing fine but i dunno, the range seemed a little short when i tried it on sunday. It was shooting about the same, possibly just shy of what my g36c was shooting. (both guns are stock). Bear in mind i was using .25's and the g36c was using .2's.

  6. sure,

    black pgc delta kit, sanded outer barrel. (somewhat obviously)

    150% enhanced recoil spring

    pdi trigger

    pdi 6.01mm barrel.

    tanio koba hammer, ambi safety, beaver tail grip safety, and main spring housing.

    the grip is actually from a WA.

    oh and those mag bumper things.

     

    the problem i see with having a real pachymer would be the badge on the grip... a pachymer with a delta badge maybe? heh. could be interesting.
