Beast06 Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Would anyone know if the gearbox is a clone of the VFC also? Want to see if it fits in my VFC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Forze Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 it's a vfc M60 second version copy (the revised version). mine came with the second tooth of the piston broken off but it works fine now tough. the gasregulator works fine here also. i'm gonna do an fps test with some springs i have lying around when i get my fps meter back (prolly this weekend).

DyNo! Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 So where do you buy this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beast06 Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 I know the body is, but does it have the same electrical system etc? Looks a bit like the M249 GB to me? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wolf66 Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 Very nice... I have been watching it for a while but decided that support gunner doesn't match me to well. I still have a friend thinking about getting it and I must say that it looks well worth the 300$. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nuclear_darkness Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Quick question. Just placed an order for one of these beauties. Can anyone confirm what size of a 9.6v could I fit in it? A 3300mah fit in there fine? Cant wait for it to arrive Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarMonkee Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I have a 3300mah large type crane battery tucked down the space in the box mag. Fits perfectly with room to hide the wires. If you use a standard large bat it pokes out a touch. I'll get pics later if you need them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nuclear_darkness Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Pics would be nice as I'm a little confused as to how crane battery will fit in as its longer wheras a stubbier standard wont. Cheers for the offer by the way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Forze Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 i put a regular 9.6v 3600mah in the boxmag bag without any problems. You do see the wire of course which will annoy the purists among us (not me: this baby will be a workhorse ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EOL Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 got one on the way Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KMFDM Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Am I the only one who could read the forumthread linked in the first post? The gun seems awesome anyways! (= At least compared to the STAR one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hillslam Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) I have a 9.6v 4600mAh crane stock style battery in my boxmag space. Fits just fine. Small tamiya connector and all wires hidden with room to spare. As I've posted on the striker thread, the M60 nets about 15-18% lower fps for a given spring then when put into say a CA M249, and shows a little more loss when compared to an AEG. I've confirmed this with the math and by testing the same spring in three guns including the M60. The reason is the longer stroke (distance from the pistonhead to the spring guide): springs in the M60 just get compressed less due to the longer mechbox.

Knockmeout99 Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Mine came in the mail today, also lacks a bolt return spring (IE: Stays open when I cock it back) Must be a first batch flaw... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steel tiger Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Mine also came today missing the bolt spring. Its shooting 350 with .2' I think its time for a M150 to get her to 400 with .25's. What do you think guys. I just love this gun! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steel tiger Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Hey guys i need some help. I have a broken box mag. I shoot 500rnds and it jammed I opened it up and stuff went wrong I found to other issues after clearing the jam I yellow wire that came off But I cant tell from were and the winding part will not hold tennsion any more. Any help would be great Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steel tiger Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 ok got the winding part working but I dont know were the yellow wire goes can somebody take a picture of a working ones wiring in the box mag Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deepsprayj Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Well I love my Inokatsu, but this looks pretty fantastic for the price. My Ino set me back almost 2k so of course i expected a little more out of it. My girlfriend almost shat her pants when I ripped it apart right when I got it home. I say you cant lose for the price. Hillslam has been around for a good while and I would trust his impressions of the kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steel tiger Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 fixed..........big relief! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarMonkee Posted July 2, 2009 Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 I chrono'd mine on the original spring and the Prometheus M110 Original spring was putting out 400fps The prometheus was putting out 300fps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EOL Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Receved mine today and i love it. But the battery was missing. Got it from Gunner btw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nuclear_darkness Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 How was gunners support out of interest? Speed of delivery from the day you bought and what postage did you use out of interest? Sorry, im a bit excited Ebaybanned never sent my first one, so after 3 weeks of waiting Ive finally been able to reorder from gunners. No one hit any problems as of yet?

EOL Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hi! I used regular air mail and it arrived in 7 days no probs there. And as for the missing battery i got a mail from Gunner that said that it will be sent to me asap. I have never had any probs with Gunner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EOL Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 The hop-rubber is not very good so im changing it to a Guarder (clear ver) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sturmjager Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) Been waiting a long...long time for an affordable Mk.43 MOD 0, or a M60 for that matter. I'm certainly going to pick this up as a treat in a couple weeks. Edited July 18, 2009 by Sturmjager Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jin15 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Thanks for the great reviews guys! I've got mine on the way right now and should be getting it in the mail in a week or so, I'll be sure to post my impressions of it when it arrives I too have long waited for an affordable M60, and the Mk43 Mod.0 is definitely my favorite M60 variant so A&K couldn't have picked a better gun to replicate for my tastes! I've thought about getting a LMG for a many years but the high price of a good looking and reliable (for an LMG) M60 always kept me from committing to buying one until now. I do wish A&K would have put the battery in the forend and used a BB hopper under the top cover like the TOP instead of a box magazine so you wouldn't have to have this giant cumbersome box hanging off the side of the gun (I'd just have a inert .308 belt hanging out instead). But hey, for the price and apparent build quality I'll live with the big box on the side! Anyhoo, thanks again for reviews and I'll be sure to post my impressions when mine arrives in a week or so Quote Link to post Share on other sites
