    TNT use their own proprietary inner. I'm sure you can hack job one to fit but would recommend.

     

    Also not sure why you'd get a wide bore.

     

    Maple leaf has a new chamber out aswell 

    Thanks for confirming about TNT.   I've been trying to find more info about the Maple Leaf chamber, but there doesn't seem to be anything out there.  I'll stick with the stock chamber for now, at least until it breaks.  Might have to widen the hop window a bit so I can use larger hop up nubs as I heard the Maple Leaf nub won't fit.  

    Got a wide bore because of the supposed extra range/accuracy which I wanted to check for myself, and also because I need the reduction in muzzle velocity.  My local airsofting group requires 1.3J or under for CQB, stock my AK shoots 1.5J.  I tried using HFC134a at the last game, which got me down to 0.9J, but the gun behaved a bit strangely, so I guess it doesn't like 134a, and I didn't want to go all the way down to 1J by switching to the 1J nozzle.  

    I've installed the Orga barrel now and I'm very happy with it.  Dropped the power to just under 1.2J with green gas and paired with a maple leaf bucking it shoots almost as far as my upgraded VSR10 (the latter has a tightbore).   

  2. Well, managed to fix the rod by bending it! 

    I have another question though. Does anyone know if the tnt hop up chamber for the ghk ak takes aeg barrels? I've ordered an orga magnus wide bore for my rifle and I heard the stock chambers are prone to breaking. 

  3. Hmm, you're right. The lower Handguard was very loose when I got it, there was about 2-3mm of play which I fixed using tin foil. I'll see if I can straighten it. The cleaning rod however is just loose, it slides out of place very easily, nothing a bit of tape/bending won't fix. Thanks for pointing it out!

  4. I don't know whether they are replicas, but Candydad's was a Trijicon SRS, RC's a Meprolight 21. 

    Thanks, and wow, did not know they were both so pricey...

     

    I'm toying up the idea of getting an AKSU for a new Polarstar build.. what are peoples opinions of the E&L? I've heard good things so far but there's not a great deal online to be found!

    I really like my E&L AKSU.  Got it a few weeks back on sale.  It isn't completely problem free; my anti-reversal latch snapped after less than 10 shots, and the stock piston was showing some wear already on the plastic teeth, so I replaced both of those and downgraded to a 1J spring.  The plastic part of the battery connector also came off, but it can just be pushed back on.  Externally however, it is pretty darned great.  The top cover release button is troublesome at first and refuses to pop back out when you close the receiver, but after repeatedly slamming the receiver down and getting it to pop out, it starts getting easier as the edges get smoother.  I'll post a short writeup in the coming week(s) once I have the time and motivation to take some photos. 

  5. My E&L AKSU, waiting for the lower handguard zenit replica to be released.

    Asura PT-1 stock.

     

     

     

    Looks like I'll have to wait till next year for that PK optic. Meanwhile, this isn't looking too shabby either, like a cheap Kobra.

     

     

    What sights are you two using if you don't mind my asking? 

  6. Stop caring about dumb ###### like a dust cover, this is NOT a WA platform. You want "realism" get a WA and put it on a shelf, that is what they do best.

     

    Even if he wanted to get a fluorescent pink dust cover, you don't have to flip like that, everyone is entitled to do what they want with their guns, within reason.

  7. I doubt it.

     

    The way the KJW Hop up bucking works is by applying pressure evenly across the ball that is molded on the hopup bucking. An H or V or "SCS" type shape would probably not work because of the hardness and design of this bucking.

     

     

    Ohh ok, didn't know that, I've never actually gone into the hopup unit on my KJ lol

  8. Im not sure if I posted this before, but I was wondering if there was any way to effectively silence (or at least dampen slightly) the sound from this rifle? Would putting some sort of padding on the bolt or the thing inside the buffer tube (I don't know what its called) do anything?

  9. This is quite odd, I've asked around a few HK stores, and it seems that HK airsofters don't like the KJ/TK M4, preferring the WE or G&P versions over it. I'm curious as to why? One reply I got was that the KJ was not as realistic as the others?

  10. Stores in hk are all out of stock, but say should be back in 1-2 weeks. Thats only what they're saying though, got no specific date, and don't know how reliable their info is.

  11. Ok I tried 134a gas with my m4, and the full auto seems to be way better with that, though still a few hiccups here and there, not great gas efficiency though.. Will try lubing valve more and I'll take her apart when I have time to look at the spring.

     

    btw, did something happen with the STANAG mags cradle airsoft was working on?

  12. Just had 1st skirmish with it today, did fine with 3 mags, good range/accuracy.

     

    One problem I noticed, it doesn't like shooting in full auto. Full auto shots seem to have less power, and low ROF, as well as ROF being irregular. Semi however is perfect. Whats wrong?

     

    Using cradle velocity adjuster with 1x 0.45 (or is it 0.40? Website says 0.40 yet on p.60 of this thread and in the instruction video, it says 0.45) and the hollow bolt carrier extension.

  13. Ouch, over $100 shipped for a single magazine, lol, I think I'll take my chances with 3, but thanks anyway :)

     

    stickit, do you mean 3 of those annoying tube-things that we have to use to load the mags? or actual speedloaders? If so how do you make normal speedloaders work with the KJ mags?
