your cast bolt catch may have suffered the same as mine did and actually bent right over as well as wearing away at the edge

And I would like to thank you in return on behalf of all users for the time and effort you have put in to make impovements, listen to feedback and reply to questions!

A great sign of a dedicated manufacturer

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

TSone have now reduced thier prices below AB prices should anyone else be in the market for some aftermarket parts !

 

 

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

are there any sharp edges on the feed lips of your mags and what ammo are you using ?

Part 42 is the floating valve in the nozzle assembly .

Instead of having to downgrade each magazine you can just downgrade the gun itself

I do know of a place for RS charging handles in the Uk but to be honest unless you break yours I wouldn't worry about it as most break seem to occur when the bolt is released forward but the user has not returned the charging handle to battery first .

If you need help with anything feel free to PM me

My fix list so far has been.

 

Part 42 replaced to drop the power to 300+ from 520fps (£6)

 

Bolt catch replaced with steel version (£8) - the one must have upgrade

 

Loctite nozzle assembly screw and the two small screws holding down "part 59?" (£4 for blue loctite)

 

So all i all not much required to take the gun from an over powered early version to a working skirmish weapon for the UK

 

EDIT -

 

Two of us using WE GBB M4s used just under a can of propane the whole day between us (including the use of pistols with that can too)

for the LWA model check out my review either on the review database here or over at ASC where I have been posting updates regularly throughout downgrading and replacing parts etc

Land Warrior currently have the V1 but hopefully will look at getting the AFC/WETTI version in soon

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

that it does but you do get used to it

As with the real M4 the hammer has to be cocked to allow the selector lever to the safe position

The best solution we have found for FAl mags not staying in the SLR is to put some tape arond the top of the FAL mags !

 

This cannot be seen in the gun and allows the FAL mags to continue to be used in both FAL and SLR which is what we are doing

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

done that

 

No obvious damage etc

 

It's leaking right out of the top of the mag as if it's going straight through the whole mag while filling .

I've left the strike valve assembly in silicone for the night

 

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

Sadly one of my mags has decided to spring a major leak !

 

It leaks straight through the mag on filling and no gas is retained at all.

 

Any ideas on a fix guys ?

 

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

Cheers mate

 

I look forward to seeing them

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

Excellent news, any idea when we are likely to see these hits the retailers ?

 

BTW mail resent to alternative addy

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

WETTI taking note as always

Hi Chris , I found 0.28s were doing a good job in cqb yesterday but will have to range test it next sunday when we are outside as it was too dark to see that far indoors.

Guys it might be worth opening a thread in "unresolved deals" or something rather than discussing AB and TNT here

 

If new readers come to this thread they will have to filter out page after page of unrelated posts to find relevant info

I was using propane and mainly on semi auto with a few bursts (no long burts) and the temp was around 5 degrees C max

 

I have 4 mags and at no point did I use all 4 mags in a game but then we did play reasonably short games

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

We used our M4s for the first time in game yesterday too .

 

Worked perfectly as long as we kept the mags warm as we were in a very cold warehouse !

 

The hop is super aggresive but some 0.28s sorted that and it shot straight as an arrow

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

My new steel bolt catch came today and the differance is evident instantly !

 

Much more positive lock. The new bolt is greyer in colour and heavier than the cast bolt catch I had before that bent .

 

Many thanks to Mark at Tactical Quartermaster for getting it to me so fast

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

Chris (and anyone else interested ) my review has now been approved on the Arnies database and updates added

 

 

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

Hi Chris ,

I shall post a full update later this evening as i'm still waiting for my review to be approved on the database here.

 

You have PM too

It is a breath of fresh air to see a retailer that is so concerned about customer service and have the drive to do something about it (even if I do think you should get more sleep ,posting at 03.41 hrs again mate ! )

 

I think I should also point out to other members here that WETTI is also an active player so unlike many "businessmen" in airsoft he has a genuine interest and play tests his products !

Just about every L119 owner has said just that lol
