Crappy cheap pistol that got a licence and turned to gold?
Words from HK is saying that full steel builds based on the latest Umarex / VFC Glock kicks harder than a TM Glock with Volante BBU by a significant margin, which in my book pretty much puts it on top. I'm trying not to think too much about it at the moment as I have four TM Glock steel builds so that's giving me major FOMO.

If you were a perfectionist you'd know that you're witnessing perfection.

Takes out two enemy combatants at the same time, as long as the shooter and the target are both your enemies...

I'm always a bit torn with putting steel everything on AEGs, especially ARs, because in my case (especially with next-gen recoils), they end up weighing heavier than the real thing with a loaded mag, which for me is a bigger sin than being too light, GBBR's most definitely, but with the gearbox and recoil weight, it ends up being too beefy before putting all the tactical christmas tree decoration on.

This is something that has been very long in the making, thanks to Jim of LCs Engineering for performing the black magic.
KWA ERG AK74 surgically transplanted into a E&L Steel body, everything you see externally is from the steel kit, only internals of the ERG was used, it was far from a drop in conversion but after the work, most things are now AEG standardised so parts can still be switched out, has a Tula 10000 rail fixed to the (spare) dust cover, with a PK-06 on top. This has a mild recoil sensation, I'd say similar to TM gen 1 recoil (Think TM recoil AK or G36, weaker than TM SOPMOD), has stop on empty, and requires charging of the bolt to reactivate upon putting in a fresh mag.
Accompanying the AK74M is a Ghost Island full steel Makarov PMM with rs Bakelite grip.

Nah, I haven't, wonder how they would compare on green.

I've had two now, the original W&S kit which works for normal GHK bolt, and this one which comes with everything you need.
I've only been to one game with the older W&S full travel kit and it works well enough for me to run through a whole day on green gas, it wasn't winter though so average temp was around 12°.
This kicks noticeable harder than what I originally had on, with the Hephaestus heavy recoil kit, the bolt carrier with gas piston weighed 345g (I don't have the original gas piston lying around anymore to weigh that combination), this full steel bolt carrier with piston weighs 439g (both with nozzle). I would definitely recommend either using Guarder black gas or DH for the full experience in colder weather, given that if you're getting the full travel kit you're after that extra bit of realism anyway.
When I tested this on a DH mag, the kick is really great, I will try to get it on video to maybe compare the gas types.
-
Same GHK gun but with the latest W&S full travel one piece steel bolt carrier installed, it has a few updates, includes a more realistic recoil spring, and the bolt is fully captive with the spring in place so it won't "jump out" of the receiver rails causing damage to either receiver or bolt carrier.
For those wondering what this monstrosity is, I've been playing too much Escape from Tarkov.

TM next-gen 416D converted to 416C, battery in RVG Grip (7.4v 1000 mah), VFC 416C Handguard with modded Z-Part steel barrel and gas block front sight.
You did... what? Remington RAHG for VFC, full marking by RunInWorkshop, integrated TM tracer, no gas block / mock piston installed for easy battery access, can take larger batteries in handguard too. Tracer timed as such so you can turn it off / on through the bottom of the handguard.

This might not necessarily apply but someone's WE M4 mag exploded inside a car from being left in the sun filled with green gas, resulted in a damaged windscreen, there was a video of it on YouTube if I recall correctly. The question is, how much stronger is the MP5 mags? Also, how does the pressure of CO2, 850psi in room temperature, compared to propane under the sun?
At 70c°, which is pretty hot, the pressure is only 360 PSI, less than half of CO2, probably similar to what's inside a hot car yet a WE mag exploded, so I wouldn't want to bet my fingers on this, but if you have facility to safely test the failure point of this magazine, like how Devilhunter had hydro tested his experiments, then sure, but I certainly wouldn't just "go for it" and see what happens...
You could argue solid piece is actually worse, three piece design means there are weak points at the join, perhaps resulting in bulging in the joints (thus relatively safe leak), where as a solid piece only has one way to fail if the valve doesn't first.

It started off as a rear wire SOPMOD, and just realised I've now owned this gun for 10 years... it's gone through loads of different looks, as for the M16, the buffer tube, recoil weight and barrel made / modded by LCs Engineering, handguard is a real one which I picked up for £20 from eBay.

Oh nice, good to see things are still being developed for this platform, it was a sad sight to see MK1 increasingly being phased out, good to see the MK3 sticking to gas in shell...!

VFC VP9 with Brontes Firearms (Don't think that company even exists anymore) style steel slide with RMR. Removed the slide rackers as I find them really uncomfortable.

Oh cool I will try those out, thanks!

Yeah as you described, in the old forum format there's a tab called "Liked", which shows your own content that others have liked, I found it really handy as generally things that people liked were photos I've posted when I needed to find them to show / repost etc. Is this hard to re-introduce in this new version? It's no biggy, just wondered if it could be brought back if it's not too much effort.
-
Thanks for all the work with the recent update, looks like it's all getting there!
Is there any chance we could bring back the tab that displays all contents that you have received "reactions" for? I find it to be really handy to quickly find old posts / photos I posted for other things / reference, thanks!

Yes I would like to take some mall with my ninja please thank you very much.
Full steel for both the FNX45 and RWA 1911, the GRP has the recent Ace1Arms Chip McCormick Power 10 style extended mag and Volante Stratos BBU, which makes the gun cycle nicely even with green gas!

? He only mentioned 1.05j, that's basically 337 fps, as for 50 rps, I guess that's site dependant but if you are only allowed to use semi indoors and full auto outdoors, then the extra rps would be nice even in semi for trigger responsiveness, and as for full auto over shooting... as long as you don't un-necessarily overshoot people, what gun you use is less relevant, I've seen people over shoot on semi-auto plenty of days and people doing one taps where full auto's allowed... it's hard to judge just based on the object alone.

Guarder x KJ Full steel Glock 23
For most of its life this was a useless wall hanger, but thanks to Volante's BBU this is a bit of a beast now.

I owned the full steel VFC Glock 17 before with CO2 mag and the fugly base, back when it was Stark Arms, the external was lovely and the internals were okay, but it performed fairly average, didn't kick very hard on co2 and just works on green gas. So I'm hoping this is a complete revamp with different blowback engine would make it kick more like the FNX series in the shape of a Glock.
There's no real way to find out without owning one, and I don't even know where those guys got their steel slides from (their builds were G34s)... will wait and see.
