Agent Hunk Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Wanted one of these for awhile and Evike's price wasn't too terrible so...G&P 870 "Mad Dog" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
notrabies Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) Wanted one of these for awhile and Evike's price wasn't too terrible so... G&P 870 "Mad Dog" What do you think of the external quality? I've had a gas Maruzen Mad Dog forever now, and I've thought about getting one of the G&P's and stripping the furniture off it.

Agent Hunk Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 It's good. Standard G&P. I haven't owned a Maruzen in years so I wouldn't be able to give a comparison. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Anyway since my G&P shotgun quit life:UTG M1014. SoTech side saddle. VTAC sling. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kenxin Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Your G&P lasted 11 days? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 11 days. 30 shots. 30 minutes into a game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Holy . What happened to it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 My friend said it was something with the hop up jamming the works up. I was firing it and it locked up. Pump wouldn't move and pulling the trigger did nadda. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 did the safety get jammed up? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Don't recall. My friend who opened it up just mentioned an O ring in the hop up barrel assembly being torn into the mechbox or something. Gave into temptation:UTG M1014. SoTech side saddle. ACM T1. VTAC sling.

renegadecow Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Sooo, it lasted 11 days before it broke down you made up an excuse to buy a new shotgun? You sir have an addiction for 12 gauge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
judgeman Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 (edited) Does your M1014 have the odd tendency for the stock to tilt slightly to the left when extended? Mine did and was generally a pile of *suitcase* right out of the box. Edited June 2, 2013 by judgeman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 They'll always have a special place in my heart. A TM shotgun was what I used for my first several games. judgeman it does. But so did my G&P so I imagined it was a design intention rather than flaw. And the M1014 certainly isn't perfect but for like $70 its hard to beat.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
judgeman Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Cheaper isn't always better, but to each their own. I put shotguns through more abuse then most people put their AEG's through. I think it may have to do with my retard strength but that's debatable. I'ma get me one of them gas powered M500 shotguns as soon as I figure our how the hell Renegadecow and Heroshark did their shotgun wizard thing with the magazine / tm shells.

Devo11 Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) 11 days. 30 shots. 30 minutes into a game. Mine lasted only 3 days after 50 shots my piston blew. Haven't been able to get the thing working again even with a replacement piston. Well at least I have my TM Spas to fall back on. PSA: Do not buy these, I know like 5 other peoples whose new G&P's broke aswell Edited June 7, 2013 by Devo11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TnL Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 I want G&P body and barrel, willing to part with the dead shotguns? lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Colin_The+Ferret Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Maruzen M1100 non shell ejector. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
notrabies Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Maruzen M1100 non shell ejector. OOH, how long have you had it, and have you been able to find any spare magazines for it anywhere? Also, took Agent Hunk's G&P shotgun and put its externals on my Maruzen: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Colin_The+Ferret Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Got it second hand two years ago with two mags and two gas resservoirs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Glad everything fit dude! Looks good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
notrabies Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Glad everything fit dude! Looks good. Thanks, in case anyone else wants to do the same thing, it requires filing down 2 nubs on the barrel and some lube/filing on the inside of the receiver where it meets the bolt. Its easy work though, and has really nice results. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deinhardt Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 A bit more bog standard than the majority I've seen here, but I'm proud to have got it sorted: Had to, retap the gas tank for longer screws, replace the gas line, make a long broad nut to hold the extended magtube on and spend considerable time sorting the main tube spring out, and make a steel extractor. Works perfectly now flinging shells about 8 feet with barely any jams. Best £100 I ever spent! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
