I know My next project is to make my chest rig look used and worn. Just not sure how to do it...

 

Why not use it

[SA80 Picture Thread]

Why should they? Unless you layered the paint on with a shovel it's not going to affect the operation of the rifle.

 

Personally I think it looks very good, and slagging him off just because in your view it's not aesthetically pleasing was uncalled for.

 

In fairness, although put quite bluntly, it would've IMO looked better if he had stripped it apart and left all the little bits and bobs black/original colour. I personally get sick of all the crappy paint jobs where the gun was just sprayed on without even stripping it down, to me it jsut makes it look too toy like.

 

But each to their own, it's just my opinion so if you like it like that then that's fair enough.

How did you get that bottom rail on there and what type of rail did you use?

 

Thanks.

[SIG Picture Thread]

Well, that sure is a wealth of information! I really appreciate that! you really must have a lot of spare time on your hands

 

The reason why I want a TM cheek rest is because it's the only one I can find oddly enough! I like the look of the Elcan, it'd be sweet if you could get one in OD. Bummer about the scope mount, finding a G&G one for a good price is hard enough. Again thanks for the info, I just need to save up to get everything in order, which will be hard after Christmas and everything

[SIG Picture Thread]

It's the ICS cheek rest. It doesn't quite fit right on the G&G, especially when the stock is folded (i.e. the stock does not fold and lock when it is on). I haven't fiddled with my SIGs recently, but from what I remember, the way that it fits and the location of the front pin relative to the hole in the cheek rest makes me realize the minor differences between each of the brands that you would not otherwise notice. It does work excellently at elevating my eye to the level of the scope that was on there (which is currently with my AW338, since it seemed awkwardly big on the SIG 550 among other reasons). At some point soon, I'll have a new family picture, since the family has grown since those pictures.

 

Thanks for the info. Will a TM cheek rest suffice? also, I presume the scope mount you have attached is a TM? I heard they wobble a bit on G&G receivers, is this true? Thanks for the help.

 

On another note, what scope do you guys think would go well with a sg 550? I want something along the lines of an ACOG but I have the notion that it would look a bit small on the gun, would an ELCAN look any good?

[SIG Picture Thread]

yee245, what cheek rest is that on your G&G sig550?

[JG - Jing Gong M4 GBB Rifle]

The AGM M4 has it's own proprietary threading on the stock tube. The JG stock tube has WA threading, which is real steel threading.

 

You'll need to eventually replace the bolt catch with a steel one. RA-Tech offers the cheapest one for $15.

 

I'm not familiar with the JG hop-up chamber but it has been said that BBs don't roll out of it. However if you replace the chamber I'd also get a G&P or RA-Tech bucking to increase performance.

 

Eventually you'll also need to replace the plastic loading nozzle if you plan on using green gas/propane. If you use duster gas/134a then your gun will last longer.

 

There are many loading nozzles out there, RA-Tech, Pro-Arms, G&P/Airsoft Surgeon, WA, Element, and many others.

 

These are the critical upgrades. You can also upgrade the lower receiver internals for added durability and reliability but they're not needed right away.

Grand job, cheers for the reply. Should I bother with any of the ACM steel parts? Last question, will AEG stocks and grips/RAS fit on the JG? I know AEG stocks fit on the AGM but as far as I remember they do not fit on the WA thus they shoudn't fit on the JG, right?

Thanks Again.

 

EDIT: I forgot to ask, If I get a steel bolt stop should I also get a new bolt? seeing as it is probably made from cheap China metal, the steel bolt stop would probably bash it to bits.

[JG - Jing Gong M4 GBB Rifle]

Right, I'm a complete 'noob' when it comes to GBBRs and gas guns in general but this is definitely the direction I want to be going. I'm planing on getting the JG over the AGM as I'm going to replace the body anyway, but I heard from somewhere that the buffer tube threads are different on the AGM and I assume the JG aswell? Also what parts need replacing?( that is necessary for reliability and performance and not Gucci-ness) I know for sure that the hopup chamber needs replacing but does the hopup rubber need to be replaced as well? and what else needs to be replaced?

 

Sorry for the wall o' text but I'd really appreciate it if someone could answer some of my questions.

Thanks.

[WE Gas Blow Back M4A1 Carbine]

Hey guys, any chance of getting this to fire below 1 joule? Will there eventualy be special mags or what? I don't want to just put in a CQB barrel as this would compramise its range and accuracy.

Thanks.
