  1. Appreciate the quick response! you saved me a big headache before i was about to go to the local gun store to pick up the rail. 

     

    Maybe it's just easier to just get the rail set that was made for the sopmod and drop it in. Do they actually sell the TM sopmod rails separately as an accessory? This will be going on my TM socom, btw

  2. Do you know where I should apply the lube? Should I unscrew the stock tube? I assume it's like the sopmod series. When I pick up the rifle and shake it up and down I can hear the recoil weight moving in the stock tube so I'm not sure if it's stuck. Thanks

     

    I pulled apart the upper receiver and this came out, im not sure where it belongs or whether its contributing to the loss of recoil...

  3. Alright the weirdest thing happened today. I was shooting it and it was kicking and recoiling like usual then all of a sudden now it's shooting WITHOUT the blowback.  The bolt stop mech works, it's shooting like an aeg with no recoil. What can be the problem? I dont know if I've recalled reading about this problem yet.

     

    History: It is stock on the standard marui proprietary battery. I dropped it once maybe a week or two ago. 

  4. It's all starting to go wrong with my poor wee SOPMOD. After 2 years of near flawless use the front section is wobbly, the magazine stop has gone iffy, accuracy is inconsistent and jam frequency is slowly getting higher. I haven't got the nerve to pull the thing apart of fix it all so I'll be waiting for it to fall apart in my hands before finally retiring it.

     

    2 years though. Its done well.

     

    Was this with just a completely stock set up with no mods done by the user? Mine has been chugging for a bit longer than that and still is. 2 year is still  no slouch though. The annoying thing for me is the stock tube getting loose. The front part is easy work

  5. I can vouch for the hk416, very happy with it. I probably put about close to 40,000 rounds through it and it goes bang every time. I tend to get too carried away with the recoil and hold down the trigger more than im suppose to. It's been flawless nevertheless. Only problem is the stock tube loosens up once in a while (same with all the sopmod series) and i have to use an ar wrench to re-tighten it. More of it is caused by the positioning of the sling  that i tend to put a lot of pressure on.

  6. Havent played in maybe 3 weeks. I might play tonight. I really shouldnt though but the local cqb arena is closing its doors in a couple of days. :(

     

    If I end up playing tonight...ill shoot the heck out of the mp7. I still have two stock tm nozzles on hand...in case something goes wrong. Lol

    That sucks, from the video it looked like that place was AEX? 

     

    It was raining the other day at my field so it was the perfect time to bring out the gbb mp7 :) 

     

     

    My teamate just got his TM MP7, inserted a mag full of green gas, shot 2 round and snap! The nozzle snapped right off and half stayed in the chamber and the other half in the bolt.

    So, whats the recommended after market nozzle for propane or GG in a hot country?

    *high fps is not an issue

    That's been a problem forewarned earlier in this thread. It's unfortunate, mine has been running for close to 500 rounds now with no problems but of course i use duster gas. Ppl still complain of a bit of pain when they get shot with it

  7. Nice vids, i cant help but notice that the kriss is expelling a hefty amount gas with each shot. How do you like the kriss compared to the mp7? If you had to pick one up for a game over the weekend which one would it be? I like the unique ergos of the kriss but beyond that i'm not sure if they have anything else over the mp7. I did at one point consider the kwa though in my search for a gbb smg

  8. How hot? Last Sunday I played in 30+C and it's only going to get hotter in the next 3 months.

     

     

    It's about the same here! I have a feeling that it will break with that temp though, i rather not take the risk. I'm perfectly happy with duster gas.

     

     

    Thanks for the info snoop, I guess it's time to pick up the mp7 and use it as is. I always used all my TMs stock so i'm sure it will last a while with the duster. Those cans go for 5$ around here so going to pick up a bulk pack. Now the pain again of waiting for it to ship but to say the least I'm excited. Only other prospect now is that TM shotgun and we'll see where that goes. Maybe i can wait and put both on one order

     

    My primary is the 416 but it's nice to have the option of something lighter as a backup in case the battery dies. Worse case scenario i'll pick up spare nozzles with my occasional orders through redwolf. 

     

    How are the mags holding up? Good design and minimal leaks? Just out of curiosity, how much trouble or cooldown does it have dumping a full mag on auto? :) 

  9. It is totally possible it was a few batches of MP7s where a bubble got into the nozzle causing a weakness. Not unlike the PX4 slide stop.

     

    Polycarb nozzles aren't all that! I went through three in that god awful VFC MP5!

     

    Does this mean if i buy one now it would be an "unofficially" second gen  mp7? Did marui do anything with this air bubble problem and started shipping a better batch with a changed nozzle? I dont want to order the azimuth if i dont have to since i would be getting it from different retailers. I definitely cannot run this on propane because it's hot here in the states in my area. 

  10. Ok guys, after considering this for months and lurking on this thread i might go ahead and purchase the mp7. If i just stick to duster, will i have any of the problems that seems to be occurring with it mentioned throughout this thread? I recalled way back then (forget which page) where someone had a stock mp7 and some use with duster caused some failures. However, it wasnt verified if he had a floor model or if it was previously used with propane. If this thing will take duster as reliably as their GBBs will, i'm going to put in my order! I much rather have this one than the KWA. I'll just leave propane for my metal kits :P 

  11. Has anyone tried to run a metal slide with duster gas and just the stock recoil rod (actually, just stock everything else)? In the US, it gets about 80-90 degrees F and i feel like the propane or the green gas will eventually crack the frame screw on the bottom. I shot a few rounds with duster and metal slide; it seems to finish and lock back with every round. I assume playing out in the heat the duster can only get better. Thoughts? 

  12. Ive probably fired as much as 1200-1500 rounds through mine with the azimuth nozzle. Nozzle is still in tact despite the presence of that air bubble. I ended up ordering a second azimuth loading nozzle just to have.

     

    I have since sold my modified Tokyo Marui MP7 GBB...the one that I had been running with all this time as it doesn't have shoot full auto reliably due to the mod. It served its purpose (which was to be ran on semi auto without breaking). Now I want that full auto feature....for games like this:

     

     

     

    Just skip to about 2:50 and 5:30. Haha :)
