Airsoft Outlet NW stock spare OEM outer barrels for them, or you could try KWA USA to get a replacement. With regards to the thread adapters they can't extend the barrel any less than they do, it comes down to a matter of what you want though, if you want a wide choice of suppressors then using an adapter is the only way to go unless you go out and have caps custom machined for your chosen suppressor. The actual 16mm threaded LPE suppressors are long sold out as well anyway as only 5 were ever made (I didn't even keep hold of one for myself!) so if you want one and see one up for sal

Hoover + softbrush attatchment is all you need.

What would have been more use and wouldn't have got your post count reset would have been to post a topic in this 'Site Suggestions' section and suggest that inactive retailer forums are removed and list which look inactive, posting a single word post in each one looks like blatant spam and just posting 'Gone' doesn't even hint towards saying it's inactive, posting something along the lines of 'This retailer appears to be gone/closed down' would have been more use and you'd have probably got away with it. EDIT : Retailers and manufacturers who have subforums on here are not 'recommended' b

You could follow the forum rules as well and not try to sneakily spam your way to 100 by posting 'Gone' over and over in inactive retailer subforums. http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/203125-gone/page__pid__2531283&do=findComment&comment=2531283 http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/203126-gone/page__pid__2531285&do=findComment&comment=2531285 http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/153014-welcome-from-airsoft-havoc/page__pid__2531282&do=findComment&comment=2531282 http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.ph

I've been finding it slow to load but only for the last 2 days, on a couple of occasions it's given me a 'Database is too busy to handle this request' message, or words to that effect anyway.

Well if it helps the Madbull valves are 7.5mm diamater at the head with a 5mm/M5 thread.

Have you tried the Madbull steel fill valves? Sold in packs of 3 and not too expensive, they're the best option I know of.

If they enter into a trade and fail to send their half of the trade on purpose then they can scam sellers. The 100 post rule was put in to protect buyers mainly, but it does also give some protection to sellers although trades appear fairly rare compared to straight forward sales. Since it was introduced we've seen it prevent a number of people who had managed to scam members on other forums such as Zero In even posting in the sales forum, in one case a member who had been scammed and had reports of him scamming other people came over to this forum to post a warning about him, by which poi

That is a bit of a sweeping generalisation there, airbrakes can be practical when setup well along with other parts. The level of fps loss also varies a lot between setups so to say it's 'too much' is always subjective, add to that different people have a different opinions on how much is acceptable to lose, some people may think a drop of 20fps is fine while others may think a drop of 2fps is completely unacceptable. Just incase there has been confusion there are no plans for fully machined gearbox shells on the cards, the original question was in reference to producing either a piston

Shipping to the US along with most other countries is available and as mentioned there is a version without any foam in along with foam filled, both are currently on offer at £40 and £45 respectivly, the shipping cost is calculated at the checkout based on the destination country selected although if you're outside of the UK and only buying one of these suppressors it will currently come in at £3 for a standard airmail service.

In short, yes, that is correct. Over the years the tolerances and dimensions from the original TM gearboxes have gone all over the place with so many after market parts, one of the issues this creates is pistons sitting (or more specifically, the first pick-up tooth) too far forward so the first tooth of the sector gear only partially engages with the piston until it has been pulled back and the next teeth are engaged. On high-speed set-ups this can result in the first tooth being snapped clean off the piston, in standard to mid rof it means the load is only spread over a small surfac

Common problem with these barrels, I got one and it jams inside the slide, added to that the casting is so bad the hopup unit won't even fit inside the outer barrel so it's yet to be used.

Not the best photo ever but I thought I'd dig one of my SD3s out and start sorting it out ready for weekenders

This is likely a very simple problem, their website appears to be based on the Oscommerce system which means the default setting for a completed (as in, processed and dispatched) order is 'delivered', what it actually means is dispatched since the Oscommerce is not linked to any delivery tracking system and they've not realised that you can actually delete that setting and add 'Dispatched', 'Shipped' or anything else to that effect in its place.

What he said. If you 'spam' your way to 100 posts and it gets noticed (Which it will) then your post count is likely to be reduced to -100 and then you'd have to make 200 useful posts to access the sales forums.

Although it doesn't specifically mention sales it does cover the whole of the forums. http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=386 crackisbad also posted an announcement which is at the top of all the UK and US sales forums and iirc has been for quite some time, as you can see from the link the thread was found by going through the US Sales and AEGs subforum. http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?showannouncement=15&f=284 Aside from all that, the no-bumping rule has been in place as long as this current version of the forums has been running
