Pick up a few thin cross section O-rings the same outer diameter as the flash-hider - Pop one into the can, just behind the anti-rotation post - It'll be a little more difficult to attach the silencer due to the fact you're compressing an O-ring, but it should make it nice and solid. Saying that, mine has been on a Birdcage flash-hider for a while, and it obviously rotates and it's not rock solid, but with the foam gone the BB doesn't clip the edges at all.

Where'd you manage to find a Surefire one? One of the ACM jobbies or a Madbull? I was tempted by one of the replicas but I've proper fallen in love with this here AAC one.. Thanks man! Although in future, remember to delete the pics when you quote a post just to save 'em showing twice on the same page!

I honestly murderously hate people who can't hack the fact GBBR's are totally practical skirmish weapons.
-
As something designed to put BB's out of the barrel, I can agree with that. In my experience though, not including cold weather, my GBBR's have been more reliable in the field. I've had AEG trigger contacts burn out on me, gearbox lockups and motor connectors work loose, as well as overheated motors and other things. I'm more confident in my GBBR putting a round out when I pull the trigger than an AEG, even if an AEG can throw out (an unncessary amount) more in a shorter space of time.

I would love to agree but I havent skirmished mine yet it needs a *fruitcage* ton of work doing.
-
What make and model is it? The key is stick to stock manufacturer stuff other than the hop or unless there's a serious design flaw!

SILENCE ALL OF THE GUNS. Also swapped the OD over to the MRP because I like it, needs an OD Ergo F93 now to finish it off. The G&P KAC Can is now JimmyPie's, but the second gun will be getting a 51T so I can use the M42000 on both.
-
Not sure if it'd work out economically for you, but G&P Pmags have always been fantastic for me - Very simple design, PTS licensed Pmag replicas and they're £45 from AirsoftZone, although the international shipping might kill the price... Saying that, trying the GHK G5 mags in my WA's, they definitely punch a little harder than the G&P mags.
-
Iron Airsoft receivers; Anyone know where they sell 'em?
-
No prob!
Haven't ordered from them myself, but there are a couple of guys on GGi who have with no problems though.
-
Awesome, thanks man - Best get saving!
-
Haha, yep, glad to help!

To be honest, I think as with all gas guns, a lot of it is user experience. For example, this is my 5th G&P WA System gun - All of them have worked absolutely fine, no issues at all. I've had to tweak the hop on a couple, but honestly other than that I've never had the slightest hint of a problem. Mine have always worked well, I'm yet to wear a Bolt carrier into an unuseable condition, nothing breaks, etc etc. I'd say when it comes to the WA system, you need to simply get the right combination of parts. In my experience that combination is everything G&P, except for the RA-Tech red

Well Jon's got a Bomber of his own now (An M727/203), and I'm slowly nudging AZ into stocking them, so with some luck there won't be such a WA based black hole in the UK in the not too distant...
-
AirsoftWorld have thoroughly regained my respect and custom.
-
Nah man, made an order yesterday for 3 tins of Brut, RA-Tech WOC rubber and bearing hammer, needed for the weekend - They called up, informed me the rubber was out of stock, but they'd ship the rest for delivery tomorrow and post the rubber FOC as soon as it's in stock again. Thoroughly nice bloke, very polite and helpful and agrees gas guns are the way forward!
-
Huh, usually I just get BS and attitude from them. Add in the botched repairs some people have had it doesn't bode well but still good.
-
See I gotta say, when was the last time there was a complaint on here about them? I wasn't a fan in the past but I can't fault them on the last 3 orders I've made at all, even if I try! Not sure I'd trust their tech department, although saying that they're about the only place in the UK stocking WA System GBBR parts at the moment..

Thanks to Ckinnerley, the MRP now has a little brother...
-
I've confirmed My MRP DOES have Prime externals... *smug*

Comments need a 'Like' button, heh.

I was watching a Vietnam documentary the other day on NatGeo, and a few 'VC' sitting around the camp had 3 AK's stood up - All of them had side rails on the plastic, fake wood handguards, and one of them had a visible warning sticker, heh.
-
Look at the bolt It's a G&P/Bomber (From what I can find out, G&P guts in Prime externals, although that's unconfirmed) MRP WA System GBBR; The gun itself goes on Ehobby for $900, and the Strike Systems dot sight, mount, ASAP, Ergo grip and BUIS bring it up to around $1070 or so. A functioning mag (because G&P STANAGS are non-starters) is another $50 odd on top for the G&P Pmag.
-
Last time I tried to get in here with an AEG that might have just about barely touched $1k if you counted every single tiny part at it's most expensive price... Finally, legitimate entry!
-
I'm just ashamed that I'm photographing a thousand pound gun with an Iphone camera... Really need to get some proper shots of it at some point!
-
I'm using the liquid on my GBBR, and I love the stuff - The action is butter smooth, and value for money wise, very little is required. I like the smell 'n all, plus the cartoon frog is pretty bonus. I'm applying on the hammer roller, a drop in the FCG, a dab around the recoil buffer and middle of the BCG. As a side note, I've also been using it on the nozzle O-ring since I got the gun, and I can see no visible signs of harm to it. Possibly decent quality rubber standing up to it, but I think I'll probably go back to using silicone on the O-ring to be safe.

Welcome to the club Wilde! Your bank account should be terrified And Jimmypie, I'm not normally a big fan of Mk18's but the attention to detail on yours is nuts, really nice build. Also, updated the MRP a little for an upcoming night game, and sprayed the barrel with Plastikote to prevent the rust: Amazingly, I haven't even needed to touch the hop on this - Admittedly it requires taking the barrel assembly out to adjust, but now it's set it's kicking .3's out on an exceptionally nice trajectory.
-
Nah, steel - I believe all models have the steel carrier, unless there are new ones I've not yet heard of. I had the model LWA sell, and it was generally fantastic - Only real reason I shifted mine was I'm a sucker for trademarks, and I've gotten pretty good with the WA system's foibles. Might be worth contacting Milspec Solutions - They previously sold them, although they're off the website now - However, they might still be able to get one in!
-
I believe it's the KWA Hong Kong version; I have a feeling Bladerunner168 can confirm this if he sees this, because I think he had that particular model!
-
It's been a while..
-
I have a Bomber mother-fruitcaging-MRP to keep me company, AWWWWWWW YEAH.
-
Winning, though I always have my 1911s to keep me safe at night and to shoot targets with.
-
Also to sex with.

No, the untreated steel has magically resisted the elements Plan is to Krylon the body pins, and I'm awfully tempted to send the barrel off to Riflecraft for a Cerakote titanium finish...
-
Le done.
-
I'm pretty sure that's what the guy used; It's actually a really nice finish, although I can agree it's not very grippy...
-
It is a two part barrel, but in my case, it was exceptionally difficult to remove. It was threadlocked on, and I ended up ruining the extension despite wrapping it in electrical tape when using pliers... Might be easier for you, or heating the barrel could work. Either way, once it's removed you'll also need to replace or cut down the inner barrel. Unfortunately, I can't remember the thread direction off the top of my head... I think it's negative, but I can't confirm that so find out first!
