  1. this is a bit depressing. , I was really psyching myself up to get one of these, but what with the disappointment I suffered with my G&GL85 (which, granted, eventually turned into a real gem of a gun, but it did take a lot of heart ache) and the ultimate failure that was the Star AW338, I'm really reconsidering whether to actually get one if they are proving to be so unreliable. Now I am no stranger to gas guns, had plenty of pistols in my time and owned every Tanaka rifle known to man or beast. So I know the pitfalls, but the replacement of wearing moving parts really shouldn't nee
  2. any chance of a pukka users review? of the FarEast type calibre?
  3. I've got hundreds of the buggers if you get stuck. I disabled all our club guns blowbacks, so have about 50 kicking about.
  4. Slu, Yanng, you guys are diamonds. I shall be skipping that way as soon as the post button has been depressed!
  5. before I go trawling through 70 pages of supposition, opinion and speculation.... Is there actually a 'review' of this gun in here somewhere and if so can someone point me in the direction of the page! this is after all a review section, not a discussion section. I thank you in advance. Rob.
  6. Well, just seen one at my site (I ordered it for the guy). GUTTED..... its almost as good as my G&G one in terms of build quality, performed faultlessly on full auto all day, unlike my G&G one on its first outing and was even possibly a little more accurate than my G&G one (then then he had installed a CA tight barrel and new hop rubber). In short, totally worth the money in my opinion. Still love my G&G though.
  7. Just for information.. 9.6v batteries do fit. The two end cells are side by side longitudinally. Its a squeeze, but they fit. Been running one in my G&G version for a while now. Glad to see the Army one is holding up. Even sicker than a parrot now....
  8. Nice review there FarEast. Congrats on the family and your continuing patience within this thread. I have a G&G L85A1 which is now working quite flawlessly and I shall add my comparision here. From the pics that FE kindly added, the Army does indeed appear to be a complete direct copy of the G&G. The gearbox internals are not of shiny black plastic as are the G&G, but I am sure this doesnt make them any less functional. Odd thing about the power..... The G&G come stock at circa 390fps (which is very hot for the UK) and replacement of the spring to a 1J item cau
  9. In light of ASCUK being renderred inoperative can I suggest a revision to the current Sniper's Perch thread that seems to be the sole place for everything that relates to the wierd and wonderful world of the 'one shot - one kill' brigade? I have looked to see if this has been suggested before, but I got bored at about page 5. Not being a web monkey I have no idea how difficult it would be to install a subforum covering the aspects of Bolt Action rifles in all their guises, Gear, tactics etc. This would make it easier for people to place their questions to the right people and to
  10. Sherlock, due to that crazy grey area thing called the Law in the UK, I doubt we will see a fundamental change in the forums rules reagarding the 1 Joule limit. I dont see why this would affect sales though, because an astute seller will just refrain from posting the power capability or what spring is installed or even alluding to it. That way, the site cannot be held accountable for the item on sale.
  11. Nissan X-Trail, nice motor. I have one too to cart my boards around in. student life must be tragic over there. Mine, an SVE cost a fortune. as for my weekend plaything......
  12. We have had an LTR (Light Tactical) with a PCS get down to approx 300fps by using HFC134a and setting the PCS at its lowest.
