robi Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Help me! robi - Twist the stock tube in all the way. Then twist it backwards untill its lined up then use the locking ring to grip it up tight... simples Okay I tried, it don´t worked!

Richard Y Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Defo get a layalx locking ring, as should others who tkae there tubes off a lot. grips much tighter on threads which are worn. But alas your tube has worn to quite a low point.. youd be much happy getting a whole new stock tube. Ill order one but about 2 weeks. Regards Rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites

elanaiba Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Richard, is it my poor memory or do I remember you saying something about having to cut Firefly buckings as they are too long? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 hmm dont think so but yeah if you take 1mm off it does make fitting easier... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
elanaiba Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Mmmm ok so its not just me and my poor bucking-fitting-skills. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Anyone know if there are any aftermarket outer barrel options beside the 10.3/10.5 pdi ones? I'd quite like to try making something else... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
elanaiba Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Not that I'm aware of. What do you have in mind? I think I'll cut one of the 14.5" barrels I have from modded socoms, and could end up with something interesting (11.5 seems doable). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 SPR Mk12 mod 1. Not my image. Needs about an 18 inch barrel though, 12 inch rail. All available for standard rifles, but... Anyway, fitted Eagle6 M90 today (310fps on my stock CQBR). What a pain in the neck. Particularly the hard locking ring I decided to fit at the same time. Firstly I had to put on and remove the ring on the stockpipe several times to get it to take. It's not cross threaded, but it did grind away a fair bit of metal until it became an easy fit. The next problem I encountered was that they're tighter than the standard ring, so I couldn't actually get the wires back on. I had to file down the wire groove ramp in order to get it all back on. I also metal fatigued and pulled the spring out the back of the gearbox rather than taking the whole thing apart. All seems to be working okay though. As expected it's even louder than it was before. I was sorely tempted to put the M100 in, but 330 (lowest) would give me no margin for error on a 328 site. A slightly high reading chrono or a tight bore barrel added later and I'd be out of luck. Guess I'll need a second rifle at some point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GingaNinga Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) Anyone know if there are any aftermarket outer barrel options beside the 10.3/10.5 pdi ones? I'd quite like to try making something else... There are. A company called Airsoft Common makes outer barrels and other parts. http://www.frontier1.jp/HP/airsoft%20common.html I have a very short 7 inch to work with my diablo front end, but they make other sizes as well I think. Here is a link... (sorry it's in japanese) http://www.first-jp.com/items/12/02/03/detail.php?itemcode=1202ASC00013 They are out of stock, but sometimes they pop up on auction sites. I sent one over to a fellow Arnies user. PM me if you want one. Edited January 30, 2011 by dstole Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kithooton Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Hi all, Being new to the recoil-shock guns. Using my TM Recce today. I'm using standard Sopmod battery 8.4 & using the TM EG 30,000. Everything else is standard. At times, firing on single. Shooting very quickly on single. (Pulling the trigger fast) It sometimes jams, no trigger response, to sort it out i've gotta flick it on auto to work it again. Only happened twice. Does this happen on sopmod, socom versions?

kithooton Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 TM Recce. All finished.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 I think it's because you use a TM EG 30,000 motor. Do you pull the trigger all the way back every time? Does it jam with the normal TM EG 1000 motor? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kithooton Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 It does on the normal tm 1000 motor. It could be possible I don't pull the trigger back full. Is that an issues. Would that count as a half cycle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 as far as my knowledge goes,very much yes . Thats why you install an AB mosfet and remove the anti reversal latch. No more semi-lockups ! But... best to ask another opinion still Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Does this happen on sopmod, socom versions? theres a fair bit about curing lock up in the thread mate (go back and read from the start young one! ) but i cured it in my socom by changing to deans and lipo"s (at Richard"s sugestion , thank you sir )no nead for eny radical re-wiring and removing gear parts !

But... best to ask another opinion still Can you use the mosfit with the TM EG 30,000 and Sopmod Battery.? http://www.youtube.com/user/Eagle6Airsoft#p/a/u/1/-dOgo3JUha8 Is this similar? theres a fair bit about curing lock up in the thread mate (go back and read from the start young one! ) but i cured it in my socom by changing to deans and lipo"s (at Richard"s sugestion , thank you sir )no nead for eny radical re-wiring and removing gear parts ! Can you point me in the right direction on the page. When using lipo. Everything Standard. Are you able to quickly hit the trigger as fast as you can.? many thanks Edited January 31, 2011 by kithooton Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 its about a smooth cycle of the system and having the power to do it, if your new to the gun your probbal running stock 8.4v bats .. they simply dont cut it not when compared to the high expectations people have or invision and aeg to perform like. Upgrade the packs to 9.6v and try again. The internal trigger fet in that vid is for normal version 2 only.. it wont fit the sopmod. Youll have to wait for a new version 2 version :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AnakChan Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 as far as my knowledge goes,very much yes . Thats why you install an AB mosfet and remove the anti reversal latch. No more semi-lockups ! But... best to ask another opinion still I've never heard of removing the ARL when installing an AB-FET. I've heard of recommendations of removing the ARL when installing a full-cycle detection FET (like the Airsoft Smart Control Unit) but when you read reviews of it, even then people recommend putting the ARL back in. Even AWS's full cycle detection FETs (Pulse/Scorpions) recommend not doing so (http://www.awsairsoft.com/pulse#q5). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Got a question, dont know if someone has fitted any of these, but, do you know if Hornbill metal nozzle for the SOPMOD is an improvement, not better or worse, or just worse? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 i dont think it maters too much im sure it will do the job... Obviously the promy and the firefly ones are the premium options. Im sure the hornbill and lonex are just fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Thanks Richard, do you think it will have any ill effect on range and accuracy? I have noted than the hornbill has a clean cut in the hole wich gets into the chamber while the TM has tree small notches... Sorry, I have no camera right now to show difference BTW, the video of the mosfet is very nice cant wait to see it attached to a new gen V2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 yeah ecu performance is pretty sweet. cant wait for the sopmod version Nah no affect really on performance.. the firefly one is meant to be a performance improvment but its never going to be a visable increase.
