That gun is firing like a COMPLETE POS. lol.....I would run away from the WE after seeing a video firing like that (If I didn't know any better).  Jeesh!        Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rottenotto Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Otto: It appears ok, but I haven't figured out how to completely remove it from the nozzle to be sure. It may be going out, as I can't think of what else it could be. Â The symptoms you reported are classic "floating nozzle valve broke/or about to break". It isnt sealing off - the bolt isnt blowing back far enough (or at all) - the firing pin is staying on the mag valve, venting the whole mag in one smelly loud burst "PFFFFFFT...."

3vi1-D4n Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) Well whats interesting is that the WE magazines have compartments built into the magazine to allow pool the liquid gas to allow liquid to convert to gas a lot faster as there is more liquid surface area. Â Most other magazines like the WA mags from my understanding do not have these compartments. Which means over 20 rounds semi-auto firing will result in cool down that affects the performance. The newer 3rd party mags also do not. Â It is the issue with the propane conversion for the KWC Mini UZI. Hence why CO2 was actually better for the gun. Â As expected, shorter mags = less available gas space for expansion, less kick. Edited April 23, 2009 by 3vi1-D4n Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vila Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 I just checked everything inside the nozzle looks ok. I didn't see any wear on the valve inside it. As I mentioned before, I do have some wear on the o-ring on the outside of the nozzle. And I only had the gas purging on full auto, but not semi. As of right now, I have a fancy paper weight as it won't fire at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mrezzy Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 quick question to all the owners, Â what is the range on your WE M4's with .28g? More than 150 feet effective? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
accuracy Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) DAMN IT. Â So I finally received my RS DD lite rail ar15 barrel nut, direct from DanielDefense and it didn't solve anything. What's interesting is that it seems as if the replica nut was already exactly the same as the RS One. Â I got my MK18 from RSOV. http://rsov.com/index.php?target=products&...product_id=3482 Â There were two issues, first there was like a 1.5mm gap between the receiver and the rail. And then when installed, either it caused the barrel to bend to the left or caused the rail to go to the right a bit. Â Any ideas? Should I just try to return it since RS Barrel nut didn't solve either. Edited April 23, 2009 by accuracy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lupus78 Posted April 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Finally short mags! I've been waiting for these. Â Only if I could get an A1 upper to WE, than I could truly mask my gun to look like an XM177. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WETTI Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 omg... i'm lurking this thread for i don't know how long  Based on these experiences that i see on this forum, it's better to wait untill WE releases a 'fool proof' version? I have absolutely no experience with GBB technics, AEG is no problem but as far as GBB goes...  Would you guys recommend me to wait or is there a V3 of the WE out yet? Only problem is that at the fields in my country are limited to 350 fps. Will the CO2 version with a 300 valve solve this problem?  We now have a worldwide distributor network up & running. In Germany, you can contact SniperAirguns (www.sniperairguns.de); they are our regional sole distributor of all our products. I'm sure they can offer you the advise & help you need.  With regard to the 'version' thing, I'll once again clarify that there is only ONE version: The latest & most updated version. This, as I said, is most likely to be our 'final' or 'ultimate' upgrade of the original AWSS platform (thank you again, in no small part, the effort of the folks here on this wonderful thread). Of course, everything I just said applies only to the WETTI-AFC Custom products only. So when you buy, pls ask your dealer from whom did they purchase their guns from. If you have any questions, pls feel free to drop me a line (PM) & I'll try to assist you in whichever way I can)  Thank you again for your support!!  WETTI www.weairsoft.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Â they didn't mention about the price yet.. since its CNC'd im guessing maybe around $60-$70 each for 57rds and $40-$50 for 43rds, i might be wrong but yea time will tell... if the price is right then i'll take 3x57rds and 2x43rds... so be prepared to go on a diet Quote Link to post Share on other sites

somegirls Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Guys I have a problem with my magazine. Â The upper valve is leaking. I lubed the heck out of it and it still does. The kinky thing is that if I lock the bolt back (yes, with the steel bolt catch and a shortened bolt catch lever spring it works!) and insert the magazin in the magwell there is even more gas leaking for some strange reason. Â Does that sound familiar to anyone? How can I fix the leaking valve? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

w0lfy Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Quick question for all you WE users; Have you noticed a problem with the recoil knocking your optics off alignment, or is the recoil not strong enough to do that? This gun broke 2 of my aimpoints. First was made by King Arms, the other by G&P. Because of this I am considering buying a real steel version for use with all my airsoft guns. I know it is more expensive, but I buy it once and should work for life with airsoft guns and proper care. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
