epzilonblue Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I thought there was only 1xcolour for the Masada from A&K. Are the two above A&K make? Did you repaint the ranger green one yourself or it came that way? i think he repainted it looking at outter Barrel & Acog Link to post Share on other sites
The Waco Kid Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Errr...how would they do that? The inner barrel, the cylinder port will all have to change, wouldn't it? Well they got it to work on the TM AUG after all.... Link to post Share on other sites
appslapp Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 i repainted my masada in green, there is not alot of desert here in sweden;) Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Two things: -Pinion gear on mine had no set screw holding it, just glue. Yikes. -Charging handle is reversible if you pull out the spring mechanism (grey block on inside of upper receiver). Swapping sides doesn't affect function. Downgraded it to an MS110, dropped an Element silent head set in, and an Element h-hop nub. I'll get back to everyone with how it performs after Saturday. *edit - also swapped out the cheap spring guide for an Area1000 guide. The cylinder is VERY nice quality, but the cylinderhead was a little loose and caused air loss. Link to post Share on other sites
Krait Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 anyone want to pm me about where to get one of these? Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Disneyland. I put it all back together and now the motor starts to turn but the gearbox is locked up. Great. Time to gingerly re-open the lower receiver and pull the box out. Also planning to replace the motor with a Guarder IFTU, just because I've wanted to have one for awhile and a choice option came my way. Link to post Share on other sites
AnakChan Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Well they got it to work on the TM AUG after all.... Sorry not familiar with the TM AUG. So with that model U can really change the outer barrel, inner barrel, and cylinder (to match the inner barrel) without opening up the mechbox? Wow! That'll be really cool! 'cos the only weapon I know that can do that is the SystemA PTW (where you could change the barrels and pop in/out the cylinder unit). Link to post Share on other sites
beretta Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Star Scar, P90 etc etc, theres loads of guns that do it. Link to post Share on other sites
AnakChan Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 No, that's not what I mean. I've modded my AEGs before and I've made my own P90 with a 247mm barrel, and a "sniper" version with 420mm inner barrel. The impression I had with the post about the Masada being able to change the outer barrel that easily but what I'm saying is what about the inner barrel and cylinder? That needs to be changed too and that's not something that you can do in the field like a RS assault rifle. The only AEG I know that you can change "easily" in the field is the SystemA PTW where you could change the outer barrel (& inner barrel) and the cylinder unit which is separate from the (lower) mechbox. Cos it would be really cool to have an AEG where you can just bring different length barrels and swap out in the field/(or game). Link to post Share on other sites
Pdubyuh Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 My VFC scar comes with 2 length barrels you can swap them in about 5 mins never needed to change the cylinder unit, it seems to shoot perfectly well with either the CQB or the normal barrel length. Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Another picture of my Masada - added a PEQ15 (since sold) and an FDE MBUS clone. Link to post Share on other sites
kodiak22 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Sorry not familiar with the TM AUG.

'cos the only weapon I know that can do that is the SystemA PTW (where you could change the barrels and pop in/out the cylinder unit). you cant change the cylinder on the AUG without opening the GB, only outer and inner barrels, and hopup. but ive read/ seen people change the barrels on it from normal to either para barrels, or the LSW/H-bar barrels without changing cylinders.

mattmanic Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Just found this thread Where can I buy one? Link to post Share on other sites
Gigueand Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Please! Please! Stop asking! No one is selling this rifle openly! If you e-mail around you might be able to find retailers who might stock it covertly and who might be willing to sell you one, maybe. The answer to the questions is, as mentioned above, Disneyland. back on topic Anyone know if Appslapp is planning on posting his video of the internals any time soon? Plasticmag, you planning on giving us a run-down of the gun? As far as I'm aware no one has done a comprehensive review! Link to post Share on other sites
Sonny Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Not just Disneyland is selling them. Just need to poke around and you will find a place. No one wants to say where, because we dont wish for them to get in any legal trouble. Sadly my order for my Masada has been sitting in customs since the 8th. I pray they havent caught on, or questioning the gun. I bought a bunch of other items, but nothing with trades, nor anything that would normally be questioned. So makes me wonder whats holding it. Im sure Im gonna end up with duty charges if anything. Bastards... Link to post Share on other sites
beretta Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 the recent batches of Masada's have been shipped without magazines, i presume because the mag is the only part with trade marks. they do include them in a seperate packaging though. as for quick change barrels, you do not need to change the cylinder. this is only the case when going from a really short barrel to a really long one. provided the extra barrel length isnt huge then you'll be able to use it no problems. the reason being that shorter barrels are ported to match the cylinders volume to the approximate volume of barrel.

PlasticMag Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Plasticmag, you planning on giving us a run-down of the gun? As far as I'm aware no one has done a comprehensive review! Actually, yes - I'm working on one right now but I wanted to skirmish it to try it out with different magazines et al first. I'm going to break out the camera when I check some parts in the gearbox and take some detailed photos. Link to post Share on other sites
Krait Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 well why cant you guys just pm us where you got yours? Link to post Share on other sites
beretta Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Because "Someone" will eventually leak it. plus it would be very easy for someone from magpul to PM someone that has one, wouldn t it? Its been pointed out how to get one far too many times already, the only excuse for asking is your laziness to read. Link to post Share on other sites
StarMonkee Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 To the guys who have done upgrade work on the gearbox. Can you confirm that the G&G GR25 air nozzle will work with this? Looking at gutting mine and replacing certain things but the air nozzle is a bit of a pain really. Link to post Share on other sites

PlasticMag Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Looks like the A&K copy... I wonder what's up? And yes, it will fit a G&G SR25 nozzle just fine. *edit - they're talking of releasing the CQC barrel! Bad *albatross*. Link to post Share on other sites
Vercingetorix Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 If they release the CQC barrel setup with hop-up separately I might just have to ditch upgrading my m14 for one of these babies in Tan... CNC'd upper? Tasty. Lets hope they anodized, not painted, too..... Link to post Share on other sites
