IBICO Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 More from Think Tank at GGI. 50rd modified magazine and improved bolt stop. http://gasguns.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=147 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
l85 guy Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 sorry if this has been answer already, I haven't read all of the pages yet, but I wanted to know if there were fully assembled drop-in assemblies. Like a trigger assembly. I'm interested in this gun but the only local airsoft store doesn't do gas gun work, so if i get the gun and it breaks, which seems likely that something will in its stock form, I have very little options for repair and am hoping I could do it myself. I'm not much of a gas gun person, I know very little about them, but AEGs just dont do it for me. I think, based on what I've read so far, I could handle the work that needs to be done to the barrel and hop but its the firing and trigger assembly that Im worried about. Any input? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kullwarrior Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 I've been following this thread since page 18 and so far there IS NO direct replacement. if you want to get better one, get WE GBB or INOKATSU... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZoeTze Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Finally comes the new RA-tech steel bolt carry, it weights only 5 g more than the original one. And it can be applied to the original WA directly. http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=Jn2CBM9sfjg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wupjak Posted October 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Nice, thanks for the video. Price? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IBICO Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 on GGI he talked about 220$ but that is not a set price. And I think that was for a complete bolt with alu nozzle and internals. So a fully complete drop in bolt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Has it been established yet if a lighter bolt will yield more efficient gas consumption/less cooldown? Most of the aftermarket bolts seem to be made of CNC'ed Steel which has been almost the same weight as the original WA bolt and definitely has more strength... but I wonder how it will compare to the Airsoft Surgeon bolt that's half the weight (although... that has still yet to be released).

RUSHER2 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Guys does the delta come with a regular western arms mag with bolt stop function or a s type mag without bolt stop? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IBICO Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Not s-type mag.. then it would say so. It is the WA with bullseye barrel set and no engravings and black type standard magazine.. (that is what we found out at GGI) http://gasguns.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=40 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GBB Nut Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 There's absolutely no reason to get a replacement for either of these assemblies. The only concern from the lower is the bolt stop functionality which has nearly been remedied from our discussions on GGI. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IBICO Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Yeah.. with the 50rd mod it might not even be needed with better bolt stop. I believe most worn bolt stop on stock WA might be that the bolt stop don`t engage fully up but go half up. Off course an improved bolt stop would last longer, but with the 50rd mod the stock bolt stop might last longer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pforcerecon Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Ok, so I have a quick question, I apologize in advance if this has been asked b4, I'm at work at the moment and don't exactly have the whole time to go through all 40pgs. But I was curious how difficult would it be to modify a RS lower receiver to work with a WA or in any case with an Inokatsu GBB? Again my apologies if this has been asked or if it seems a little redundant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IBICO Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 No problem to modify. There is some done for PTW so why not WA. There is even 7075-T6 CNC milled body out there and that is even stronger then RS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

poison123 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 don't know exactly what your getting at but perhaps you misunderstood my question. You want to modify a RS lower for Airsoft....ya....the ATF might want to have a word with you. Lets see...its no longer firing the round type its marked for, in addition you just made it a machinegun. It doesn't matter that its only airsoft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZoeTze Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 RA-Tech has new product, Steel Bolt Carrier. http://www.pc-net.com.tw/redalert/pic/prod...teel_onsale.jpg They have 2 kind of color, Dimgray & Silver Weight is 194g, The price is $130 USD It is nice looking, I like its glowing.

uscmCorps Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 I'm still unsure about the need for a reinforced bolt. Does the standard WA bolt fail when using Green Gas? If not, then what's the benefit of upgrading the bolt? Weight wise, this and the Prime bolt seem to be similar in weight to the WA original. The one bolt that has me most intrigued is the light weight Airsoft Surgeon Bolt (which so far is vaporware). I have still yet to hear how exactly the weight of the bolt affects the performance of the gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well if you register the lower THEN it's illegal otherwise it's modifying it which isn't illegal as it won't be able to EVER use again in a RS counterpart.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't you still have to register the lower in order to purchase it? You have to have a FFL to buy one I seem to recall. Regardless, having a lower, even a modified lower, is starting to venture into a legal gray area that I certainly would avoid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
poison123 Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Yup the Lower is the registered part of a AR/M-4, it has the Serial on it, so you can only pick it up from a FFL AFTER they have done the background check. Trust me, I've built 2 RS ARs in the last couple of months, and bought a fair amount of firearms due to the current Political situation in the states. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have still yet to hear how exactly the weight of the bolt affects the performance of the gun. Hello, this is RA-Tech Customer Service, Henry. If you use stronger gas, your bolt carrier is getting weaker until they become deformed. Because the bolt carrier would scraping to each other when you were shooting. Then the bolt stop will lose its function. That`s why we produce this steel bolt. To endure the stronger gas and make your gun durable. Sincerely, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
