  1. Wow, and he speak ENGLISH! No translation needed
  2. I hope it holds up with the propane/green gas. I've had to resort to duster for my current one. A lot of the 870s I've owned eventually had a leak from the body or an expanded gas that after prolonged use. Breacher had a leak from the body that needed maintaining, not sure if it was entirely caused by propane use though, could be an overall maintenance issue. Hopefully this holds up. A TM gas shotgun on the higher pressured gas is just mean for CQB, it's so fun I love it.
  3. I may do that, but that seems to concern overall efficiency and increase # of shots for green gas (as seen with badabings video), not reliability. I wonder how the bolt is holding up for ppl with high round counts with propane during higher stress temps. I honestly havent heard any major failures...yet lol
  4. What are the current reports of running these things on propane/green gas, especially in hotter climates? I havent heard any reports (like how the mp7 issue arose wtih broken nozzles) with use on green gas. I tempted to run it in 85 F+ Florida weather to see how it fares and if any broken parts will ensue. Similar to the question above, has there been any reliability issues consisent usage?
  5. lol those were the bad days, I'm glad there are more options now as these GBBR platforms are continually evolving.
  6. I had two GHK m4s, one was a 14.5 inch bought a year ago and a RA TECH spec'ed 300 blackout. Both had the bolt failure down the line. I did rectify the issue with file as L2E mentioned (samoon has a lot of convenient resources for GHK issues on their website which is where I resolve most of the problems). In my experience, the performance was ok. I'm a guy who just likes a performer out of the box, and the GHK did reasonably well considering my prior with other GBBRs. I'll have to agree to the trigger on the marui, I do not like it. The GHK had a nice trigger, as well as the bolt riding b
  7. The ghk bolt lock will fail, along with the other issues I've also experienced. The marui seems to be trouble free so far, a piece of mind everytime i bring it out which is worth a lot to me.
  8. So I received the mws. I have to say, the auto on this thing is mental. The performance is extremely consistent and predictable. I had a few guilty spurts of using it to propane but i soon will switch it back to duster since it's still 86 F here in sunny Florida during christmas season. some criticism: The trigger doesn't feel as good as the GHK. If you're looking for realism, the bolt doesn't slam home as satisfying as the GHK (due to the MWS system). Needless to say, it is very reliable and I look forward to having some trouble free skirmish rounds. I am having trouble finding extra mag
  9. I hated filing down that bolt catch on my GHK... Im glad the marui has that adjustable wheel for easy hop adjustment. That KWA tool on the lm4 is one of the worse designs I can think of, and utterly annoying. A little bit more force than usual breaks the teeth. I thought the gas efficiency on the lm4 was decent, but the performance was lacking consistency. Shimming the barrel, stopping random jams, gas spewing out of the receiver till empty, Bbs flying unpredictably. evo sets and other mods helped a bit but i have given up on that system, and thats after owning and coming back through at l
  10. thanks for the vid. So TM has better snap, worse efficiency, questionable accuracy bonus vs the GHK according to the video. That and bolt lock failure on the GHK.... I really like how "tossable" the marui m4 rifle seems. Also, with the lighter mags, I wouldn't be weighed down at the end of the day after a few good long games. I used to run 6 ghk mags on me....talk about work. It really gets to you when playing after a good while.
  11. Anyone hear of any green gas/propane failures yet? the mp7 nozzle failures came fairly early
  12. Thanks for the review, in to get more info as i will inevitably buy one
  13. Thanks deltazero! Wow that's a nice shotgun mod. So, after using this breacher for a bit, i dont know what it is but it seems a bit more durable than the full size. Maybe because the full size has a longer pump its more likely to get that half-racked action or jam. However, i have no issues with the full size but that breacher feels very smooth.
  14. i may have missed this earlier in the previous pages but can you switch the full sized stock and put it on the breacher with no problems? and 870 full size with a pistol grip?
  15. I hope the best for you snoopy. Let me know how it goes, I'm really interested to find out and hear about a follow up. I've bought many things from echigoya (few thousand $ spent actually over the years) and they usually have been pretty good. I would like to see how this situation progresses. Has anyone else state-side had recent issues with echigoya?
  16. Now that you mention it, sometimes i do have trouble with the pump action. Sometimes it stops short and i just pull it harder to complete the remaining pump action. So far though, i dont see any changes. I do notice that sometimes i would hear a loud hiss (very apparent) and to stop it i would pump the shotgun and shot it to stop the hiss temporarily. However, leaving it there sometimes, it can re-initiate and for games, picking up a shotgun with no gas is not good for me ...
  17. Are you guys getting these failures in stock condition? I know the misfeeds occur but my 3 shot has been fine. I dont really use 6 shot to know but the few times i switched over to that mode there were no problems. Also, broken nozzles? Just curious to see if i have to be on the look out for anything in the future.
  18. Will wait for the initial reports but very curious to pick up the breacher even though i already have the TM m870
  19. Better late than never, welcome to the party!
  20. I second this. Also, a marui mp7 gbb kicks harder with duster than a kwa mp7 with propane. I believe the TM m4 gbb on duster will run pretty reliable with an enjoyable recoil.
  21. lol try owning one for a certain period of time and come back to this quote. There are reports of people literally having brand new KWA hk45 that jam after a few mags...and if that doesn't happen it will be inevitable. The whole system to me is flawed, I'm glad i sold it for cheap. When you need a pistol to go bang, you can't trust the kwa hk45. I always had to second guess myself everytime it sat in my holster. I've owned the KSC USP series and the new KWA mark 23 and they weren't THAT bad. The marui hk45 is the only other option for this model. Let's see how she holds up!
  22. Krydel, that's interesting. Yeah, it doesnt seem to be sitting very well (2 out of 5). The remaining three, i tighten the screws on the bottom and the usually fixes the problem. I'll give it another day. In the meantime, how are the new GHK stanag metal magazines? I assume they work well in the g5? Might order a couple of those....
  23. tried soaking in silicone for a day, no dice. I can see it coming from the inside of the rubber rectangular part that vents the gas (around the BB feed lip area)
  24. So i tightened the bottom of the mags (the two big screws) and they stopped leaking from the bottom. Now two of them are leaking from the top.... what gives?! I tried to tighten the valve but that seems tight already.
