  1. Sorry about the delay and shoddy picture, my dSLR is packed away for my imminent move of house! Fitted the kit with minimal trouble, aside from the fiddly-as-hell thread inserts falling out. A small bit of tape soon fixed that problem though. The kit itself is solid, with no creaks or wobbles if shaken. My only possible issue I might face is the small gap in the ris where the original bottom rail and the extended bottom rail meet, but fingers crossed it will be fine. I have an EGLM arriving early next week which should answer that question fairly rapidly. The good news is the smaller b
  2. So I messaged Samoon about getting sub 350fps and they said they would make a 1J bolt for me getting them to test with the long barrel too.
  3. EDIT** How embarassing, i put the thread inserts in back to front. My bad, ignore this!
  4. Any ideas of how to crack open the nozzle? It seems to be glued together from two pieces
  5. Anybody know the OEM of the Cybergun EGLM? Trying to decide between this, the Ares one and the VFC one for my g5 :D (Hoping it fits when carbine kit is on it!)

  6. Mine's currently being thrown around the post office whilst they decide when they're going to send me the customs letter to pay. Will take pics and review when i get my hands on it!
  7. Would anyone be so kind as to measure their inner barrel? Its meant to be approx 200mm but would like an exact measurement so i can decide which replacement to get. (forgot to mention I don't get mine back for a couple weeks still)
  8. G5 carbine kit is for sale on samoon website. Buybuybuy. *EDIT* Bought one along with a load of spares (mostly charging handles so i can hk slap at will)
  9. From what i hear, "sliding off the baseplate" is more "apply hammer to baseplate" to get it off. Shall have to brave it with mine at some point, as i've one of those silent leaks Emailed milspecsolutions about this - end of the month apparently! --- Unrelated note, anyone ever had problems with retailers being funny about spares for guns if you didn't buy the gun itself from them? I've had 2 retailers be a bit cagey about me asking for spares then being quoted suspiciously high prices... I'm all for rewarding return customers, but it really irks me when this happens.
  10. Got mine on the way from Fire Support, can't wait to admire it.
  11. Samoon replied to my email telling me they are 6.04. I *think* somebody mentioned earlier it takes AEG barrels. I'll look into trying to source an orga magnus barrel in the UK. Cheers!
  12. Excellent, best get saving for a SD kit then! Anyone got pics of their xdm with a metal black slide on? Can't decide whether i like the silvery ones or not / if the black aftermarket slides change the look at all from the plastic one.
  13. APS ACP 601 co2 pistol? Interesting, this has completely slipped my radar until today.

  14. I don't actually know myself, although as the RA tech precision barrel is 6.01 I would wager it was 6.03mm or similar stock. Samoon's GHK spare part for it doesn't state the dimensions.
  15. Shooters Design, Nova, Detonator, Airsoft Surgeon and Creation all make aftermarket metal slides. So much choice! Looking at getting one of these (the pistol itself), wouldn't know which to get. Doesn't seem to be much wrong with the cheaper ones.
  16. Who wants to recommend this rookie a wide bore barrel to reduce fps by 20ish? (if that's possible?) All the gear, no idea.
  17. Did anyone actually get a wide bore barrel to try out / one they know fits? If the carbine kit comes with the option of not buying the inner barrel, I may just invest in a wide bore instead of waiting for an npas
  18. Propane is my gas of choice. Green + Abbey gas are simply too expensive to run my GBBs with as a long term solution. If it fires hot on Propane, I'd rather find a way of restricting the flow than spend out on overpriced gas, but thats just me
  19. Interesting - might have to be a weary of visiting other sites not using madbull chronos then! I fear i must be the only one with a g5 that chronos hot in the UK
  20. Not sure who the question is directed to, but mine was firing at 360-70fps, which is too hot for my local site (350fps) and definitely too for those 330fps CQB limited sites. Anything 330 and below would be great. Not sure whether my friends Xcortech chorono or my local site's Madbull chrono is wrong, but the latter insists its around 320-30fps, whereas the former puts it at the above fps, firing hot. Suppose i can't complain, at least its not the other way round!
  21. I got the pistol a few days ago second hand complete with a crack at the front of the slide, so I had a spare on order as soon as I got it. Managed about 150 shots off today (25ish degrees) with propane and the entire front section flew off! Ooh didn't know about the metal inserts. I'll make sure to check that out on the replacement. Was debating whether to keep hold of the px4 or sell it on because the pre-existing crack made me think it was pre-disposed to breaking under propane.
  22. Interesting, shall bear that in mind when considering my options. Thanks! Further to my other past slide gave way after about 50rds.
  23. Anybody got any pictures of their m93r with a compensator on the front? (more to the point, where can you get hold of one to fit the kwa?)
  24. Thats out of stock However, since posting that, i emailed TMC and they had one Gonna cost me $35 and $18 shipping, which makes it an expensive piece of plastic, but needs must... That said, UK retailers could learn something from TMC. Excellent communication even when out of hours for them and even 15(!) photos supplied of what they're sending for peace of mind and to help out if anything goes wrong in transit. Pinnacle of good customer service.
  25. Source? Quite interested to know how all these gems of information get slowly released They're not ideal, but if it means I can actually use my g5 / make it site legal, I'll take it! It'll be good to see how they release it, because the nozzle assembly is glued together so either they expect us to bath it in spirits and hope it comes apart or they'll sell it inside a replacement unit. It'll be kinda necessary if youre wanting to easily switch between cqb, carbine and marksman kits all the time too, if youre replacing the inner barrel too with those kits.
