Evert 72 Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the offer Hedganian but I have a jg military stock on the way. Will get a pick of my Aug family when it arrives. Just trying to integrate a civ receiver into the collection but I cant stand the way it looks! Â thewallhitme- All the military models Ive used have good scopes. I find 1.5x perfect for airsoft. Dont let that put you off getting an Aug. Edited June 7, 2009 by Evert 72 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 The CA scope on Project AUG is fine, no problems at all. Nice crisp image, good, well-centred crosshairs (not wonky ones like some cheapsoft scopes have), adjustment turrets work as advertised, backup iron sights even work okay. Â The old TM ones had a 2x scope, not a 1.5x, I don't know what the JG has in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Â Well, I've got both the TM and CA scopes, but can't comment on the JG.... Â The CA has a 1.5x magnification and the image quality is crystal clear. The eye relief is barely acceptable and unless you've got the gun shouldered properly you won't get a proper view. This is as much down to the diameter of the scope as anything else, and the CA scope performs about as well as the RS version in this respect (from what I remember of handling a real AUG). Â The TM has got higher 2x magnification. But the quality of the lenses is obviously poorer as the image isn't terribly sharply resolved. Due to the higher magnification and poorer lenses, they eye relief is extremely poor and it can be difficult to sight with it, even is shouldering the gun correctly. Â Also. is anyone doing an AUG A2 style charging handle? Â Yes, I've got a master for one made (look back through my pics in this thread), but sporadic employment means I can't afford the materials to make a mould and cast them....

Hedganian Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 And you have to get in line behind me, and Stunt, and a few others, MoD.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Evert 72 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 The results of my attempt to lower the rail on a civ TM receiver (kind of inspired by the Austeyr F88). Looks ok but I need to get a file and sand paper to finish it off neatly. Just trying to source a longer rail and suitable optics. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Evert 72 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Post file, sanding and respray. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Might have a spare civvy receiver will full-length TM rail. Not sure, though. Will check later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Evert 72 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Thanks Hedg, that would be perfect. Either that or I will have to see if I can get a standard ris rail to work. Let me know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) Don't think I've got a whole receiver spare, but I have found the top rail from a TM AUG, no bolts (I'm using them on the A3esque). Â I'll drop you a PM. Edited June 9, 2009 by Hedganian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Treadhead Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Well you could read my posts above to see what I may be working on....

Shriven Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Si... you magnificent *bramston pickle* Â Question is, will it still take AUG mags? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Looks okay with that short mag. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Treadhead Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) Nope, it won't take AUG mags any more, I could probably put it back the wat it was originally though - But if I'd wanted to do keep that as an option, I wouldn't have plastic welded in the new sides of the magwell... Â The loading nozzle is a temp until I can get on a lather and make a metal one - I just bodged the end of a loading tube to lengthen the nozzle. Â Btw, this gun has a microswitch trigger controlling a mosfet in place of it's usual trigger mech (well it will do when Stunt sorts out the box - the electronics are his job...). I had to remove the gearbox's trigger mech and the trigger bars to make room for the internal mag catch. Without that cubic inch or so of space there'd be no way to make the existing mag release work the AR style catch... Â I'll post a guide before too long... Â Looks okay with that short mag. I have to agree, the VN mags look much nicer in there... I'd love to try it with one of the experimental straight 40 round mags from the sixties...

Hedganian Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Guess you'll have to build one. Â How does the electronic trigger perform? Is it an "upgrade" worth considering for my AUG, which is currently in the clutches of Doc having its innsides redone (again)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is it an "upgrade" worth considering for my AUG, which is currently in the clutches of Doc having its insides redone (again)? Â You'd really have to ask Stunt about that one - it was how he'd set up the donor gun I used and he wanted it kept that way... Here's the microswitch mounted to the trigger mech, you can just make out the screw on the top limiting the pull of the trigger.... It's a very simple system with a simple on/off switch intended to drive a full auto only gearbox... Â I'm no electronics whizz, but I'm sure someone so inclined could come up with an electronic two stage trigger... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shriven Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 An electronic two stage trigger would be awesome. My AUG is a bit old now, and is beginning to have issues with getting to semi. *poker face* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Evert 72 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 (edited) Most of the collection so far. May get a H-bar kit and m203 when I have the funds to do so. Â Lowered civ receiver finished, thanks to the rail provided by Hedg. Edited June 18, 2009 by Evert 72 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mattmanic Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hello all, Â I'm just about to buy an Aug and have been looking around for stuff I can do with it. I found quite a few people saying that an internally silenced Aug is one of the quietest aegs in airsoft. After searching for a guide on how to do this the only one I could find was on a website that has been down since 2006. Here it is: Magic time travel... Â Fairly simple but it's always useful to have a guide. I'll be posting pics of my Aug when I get it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
