  1. Yes, all longer mags are compatible with shorter variants.  I've found WE mags to be very tight fits in my Guarder G19 frame.  BBUs are interchangeable, but WE nozzles only work with its own BBU b/c it's a bigger diameter.  The KJW G19/23 uses TM G26 style hop up units, while the WE uses G17 style.  Hammer housings are interchangeable.  Front rails are not interchangeable between WE and KJW, with regards to slide fitment/hop up compatibility.    Takedown levers, mag catches, slide locks, and most other small parts are all compatible with G17 stuff.

  2. Now that is a solid idea!  Has it ever worked its way off the rubber and caused issue?

    Thanks!  It uses the same concept as ABB rings used for VSRs.  I used a tubing cutter to cut it, so the inside edge is a little peened inward, it pretty much bites into the rubber, so it won't come off without actually trying to pry it off with a screwdriver.  Depending on the hop up rubber, you might need to add a few layers of PTFE tape.  Haven't had any issues so far after shooting over 1000 rounds.  

  3. With the stock barrel cut to 400mm and the stock BCG, my gun shot 460 FPS.  Managed to get it down to 400 FPS with the regular Azimuth aluminum flute valve and a KWA jet nozzle spring cut in half.  

    Bimmer, check if the the nozzle slides freely out of the barrel extension.  I had to file my barrel extension a bit to get the nozzle to slide freely, after that the ROF increased by 1 or 2.

  4. I don't think it's the hammer assembly as the hammer is essentially a zero hammer, and the auto sear should only be in contact with the slide/BBU when its in battery, so it shouldn't affect it on its return.  

    Didn't get to shoot it.  When I racked the slide normally, as in pull it all the way back, then let go, it worked fine, but when I pulled the slide back, and slowly let it forward, it would get stuck,  I'd have to pull the slide back to get it to unlock, there was simply too much resistance to push it all the way forward.  This makes me think the barrel is either sitting too high, not tilting enough, or having too much slop that it can slide too far forward and jam the slide. 

  5. Nope, unfortunately.

    Also, got to handle my friend's version with the fixed slide gap.  It had very minimal slide to frame wobble.  I noticed that the recoil spring was very weak, similar to what a stock TM would use, and also that even with the plastic barrel, the slide return was very sluggish and would not return to battery without reracking the slide if it was ridden home.  I'm thinking this has to do with out of spec locking lugs on the barrel.

     The frame is probably the most realistic I've felt compared to WE, KJW, and Guarder G19 frames.  It had more realistic contours and the texture matched a real G19's better than WEs, which are too grippy, and KJW/Guarder which are too smooth.  

    The trigger pull was pretty disappointing though, it had a nice resistance, but the sear release was just too long and mushy.  Did not get to fire it with gas/BBs unfortunately.  I'd definitely get one if I didn't already invest in so much in my steel-slided KJ/Guarder.

  6.  

     

    What's external compatibility like? Will the gearbox fit into regular AEG upper/lower receivers?

    They use standard AEG front ends and pistol grips.  Only the buffer tube and end plate are proprietary IIRC.  Bolt gearboxes won't fit into standard receivers without removal of the bolt plate mech and removal of the tabs that keep it in place.

  7. I recently opened a Bolt, bought  a good 1.5 years ago by the first user, I am the third used.

    Believe it or not, never opened before, I looked in it and it had LCT gears, black.

     

    Also my piston is just a transparent plastic one.

    Looks like you have one of the first gen Bolts then.  

  8. I emailed KH Mountain about a week ago about the Visionking, and they told me they were OOS.  Cheapest place I found was Aliexpress, $80 shipped, but from a seller with no feed back, so I decided to get it from Airsoftglobal, who has it for $67.  Just got the scope in today, and the scope completely matches chas' description.  It is indeed a 30mm tube.  Anyone know what killflash it's compatible with?

  9. have you handled the dytac URXIII? any chance you could share your comparison if you have?

    Sorry, I have no experience with Dytac products whatsoever.  

     

     

     

    Good review!

     

    I have the Dytac wrench. It worked for a couple removal/installs. Now it no longer grabs after some torque and slips past the teeth on the barrel nut.

     

    The Dytac wrench is almost as bad - it's made from crappy low quality steel and bends easily. The only decent Airsoft URX III wrench is the one made by Iron Airsoft.

     

    Good to know about the Dytac wrench.  I completely forgot that IA made a wrench, that probably is the best option.

  10. Needs bigger RDS IMO. What about a Trijicon SRS?

     The Comp M4 was just thrown on from another gun for a skirmish, didn't have time to source sights for it.  Probably won't, as I'm thinking of selling the gun.

     

     

    Not a fan, I'm afraid. The clubfoot/grip and the banana mags don't work together at all - it's a clash of angles - and the less said about the silver barrel and matching Triple Tap, the better.

     

    IMO the SR-47 is rare enough to be visually striking in its original configuration with KAC panels, 3rd-generation M4 stock, and the Obermeyer barrel and flash hider for compatibility with the KAC suppressor.

    I completely agree, this gun is just a cluster***k of parts that came together out of boredom.  Kinda wanted to make a "trollish" gun, but it's novelty is starting to wear off.  Though I like the barrel chromed, brings out the dimples  :D
