  1. Just a quick word on holsters, the Blackhawk! P99 holster fits really nicely... (it doesn't fit the Umarex air pistol) Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  2. Haven't done many games with mine, but it definitely held it's own last gas and spring day in the woods... It was Very interesting being almost the only player with a piece that could crack out that kinda full auto :-p
  3. You can tweak the trigger transfer bar if the trigger is stiff on semi, but that little insert is a far better solution.
  4. I'm looking at an 870 for someone who broke their nozzle & hop rubber... As far as I can tell as it loads the BBs into the top barrel it folds the hop rubber over & jams in place, thus taking out the hop rubber (if it's forced) and the nozzle behind. I can't find any information on this fault anywhere online except a forum I can't get onto... Anyone got any ideas? There doesn't seem to be any wear around the loading area, the loading arm's been replaced as has the nozzle & hop rubber, but I'm guessing it's still got the same problem that took the parts out in the first place... I'
  5. Just realised I don't think this has been mentioned so far...(if it has I apologise) The MSK uses the new type hop rubber & barrel, externally the barrel and hop rubber are the same, but it looks like there has been about 2-3mm of hop window removed and added into the hop rubber in the form of some kind of restrictor band... Basic upshot is really short hop window and if you want an after market hop rubber you need to budget for a barrel too... Sent from my D5503 using Tapatalk
  6. Been running mine for a year of decent use and only the nozzle has failed (that was on the last game I played) having a little bit of a glitch with full auto (it will sometimes just stop) but as I'm pretty solidly semi only it hasn't been enough of a hindrance to investigate...

  7. Awesome, I kinda hoped it would be something like that, not much point in supplying a spare that will fail the same way!
  8. Ooops! Just busted my sliding stock catch! There's a spare in the box so no biggie, might pass the old one on to an engineer friend of mine, see if I can get one made in a stronger material...
  9. Only section I re-oiled was the section of the hammer that rubs the bottom of the bolt carrier, that's where the problem is. I do know there are issues with over lubing!
  10. I had a cycling issue that developed over time, the oil that was used internally combined with crud & the paintwork that stripped off the inside gunked up the hammer and made it stick to the bottom of the bolt carrier causing it to stick when returning, good clean & re-oil sorted it, also using a section of an old AEG spring as a semi-short stroke/forward assist buffer stops it happening even when gunked up... The hammer does seem to put a lot of pressure up onto the bolt carrier, it seems like it could lose a large section of it and still lock down reliably... Might experiment a litt
  11. Here's an odd question... Just got hold of the trade plate kit for this, does anyone know which way around the silver metal plate that fits between the stock & the grip go? It's worth checking a real steel version (not that too many of us have access to them!) the only review I can find that mentions it just says that the KWA and KSC have them turned around different ways...
  12. That's a very good point, also I've seen quite a few metal mags with battered or missing baseplates too...
  13. They both work, I prefer the pmag style, the only time I use standard m4 style is when I'm borrowing, it just feels a little wrong, don't know if I'm seeing a real performance difference or just because I'm borrowing someone else's gear...
  14. Noticed a new bit of wear today, if anyone is having problems with the charging handle getting stuck halfway... When the handle is released it slams forward into a section of the upper receiver and uses it like a stop, it slowly deforms and works inside to jam up the cooking linkage... 30 seconds with a dremel to flatten it off, small coat of grease and it's back to smooth as butter. Worked flawlessly yesterday (in the cold and rain!).
  15. Heat the spring and give it a flat end to bounce off?
  16. The reticle glass is held in place by a locating screw in ring with an 'o' ring to hold the glass in place, a little thread lock, gentle persuasion and all is right with the world :-p The original post was a little tongue in cheek, but if I want this look I can't justify the cost of a real steel scope, anything designed for real steel available at a reasonable price in the UK just doesn't work looks wise for me...

  17. Used yesterday on my msk, loved it until about mid afternoon when it did this... So we can say the msk is not exactly scope friendly :-P Sent from my D5503 using Tapatalk
  18. I've already had word that WE don't have spares for that model in the country yet, it's such a puny little post compared to the m4 design too, I knew it was going to be a problem as soon as I saw it, just liked the rest the rest of the gun enough to make up for it!

  19. Has anyone had any problems with the Bolt catch? I've probably only gamed a couple of times with mine and it's decided it doesn't like locking back... The part of the bolt catch that the magazine activator bit touches is such a piddlingly thin piece of metal that it just seems to have bent up, gave it a slight bend down and it worked again, but too many more times and it will snap off :-(
  20. Used both the PicoSSR and the MERF and they're fantastic, the MERF fits really easily, even fits in a P90 with a 1450 11.1 Lipo, the Pico went in my work horse day to day and has had at least a year's worth of regular skirmishing without a hiccup!
  21. The rear body pin will stand up to 2 weeks outside weather without any real ill effects... Mental note, it may be easier to access the hop with the body split (debatable) but having to play with a cable tie holding your brand spanking new gun together cause you dropped the pin onto a 2" deep wood chip flooring is not worth the hassle... The pin does however show up on a metal detector...
