Manu le maboul Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Well ... If You put it this way. My answere is, please read the description of product to the end. http://www.airsoft123.com/index_eproduct_v...?products_id=15 I do know what I'm saying, I own one, so I think I'm a little bit more aware than you seem to be . It's not only a guide rod: It's a piston, piston head and hexagonal guide rod, that's passing through an hexagonal hole in the piston head, with an adjusting knob that goes inside the nozzle, under the #42 part.

I believe You've got one, just like me, and about using loctite on the knob and the nozzle was long time ago ;-) TSC dont use loctite because is pointless while there is no nozzle on the guide. But finally we have NPAS from Ra - Tech, i believe this will be much more reliable. Edited September 17, 2009 by Nazio Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Reppyboyo Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 How do you adjust the hop up in these? Manual does not state which way I turn the black ring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Manu le maboul Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) I think you don't understand what I mean. I didn't use the adjusting knob and I do thread-locked the nozzle. What I say is that the PISTON HEAD, factory mounted, is not thread-locked by TSC. What I call piston head is the part where the guide rod pass through and where you put the #122, do you see what I mean ? It's the equivalent of the original #121 part. That's why I recommend people to thread-lock this part, it's a factory mounted part so I didn't thread-locked it, I thought it was already done by TSC. It's not and it unscrew itself with vibrations, that broke my nozzle after 4000 BBs shot. Edited September 17, 2009 by Manu le maboul Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WarChild Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 I don't know how things have been in other parts of the world, but in our area, out of a pool of about 50 different WETTI CQB's, WE SCAR's and WE M4A1's, we've had over 30 incidents of part #66 breaking. Obtaining replacement parts has been an exercise in frustration, and another original part is most likely just going to break again anyway. In an effort to permanently fix the problem, we had a machine shop in Rochester, NY fabricate part #66 with a CNC mill out of hardened tool steel. We have a small quantity left over after taking care of all the local issues. If anyone else would like the "uber part #66", feel free to contact me. the price is $22 plus shipping. if a lot of people need this part, we'll consider doing another larger fabrication run.

_Karma_ Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 How many people here have recently ordered from Airsoft Buddy? I placed an order just over two weeks ago and nothing is happening. I've sent two emails inquiring about it and still have heard nothing. I know one other member is having issues as well. I ordered $350 worth of stuff, you'd think I would get something.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Josiah Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Does anyone know of any online guides for installing NPAS or a c02 valve into a we m4? I'd like to install those parts, but worried about destroying my gun! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bamse Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 (edited) Karma: i sent them an order on sept. 11 and last thursday a package ended up in customs from "William shop". Since both the Swedish postal service and customs suck so much male genitalia u cant even start to comprehend, it'll prolly be a week or so before i get the parcel. but, the order was shipped, even with the lack of email response or updating the order from "Processing...".

I'm sure he's just busy and getting the orders out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I ordered $350 worth of stuff, you'd think I would get something.... I placed an order on September 17th, and it arrived yesterday without even as much as a mail to alert me. Just saw a notice from the post office in my mailbox that I had a parcel to collect. So thus far AirsoftBuddy has been far better service-wise than has airsoft123. Although AirsoftBuddy could do a lot of improvements in the communications-sector. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess we just ride it out huh? Thanks for the response, it's kinda good to know I'm not the only one. As for the rest of you with the prompt service, what did you order?

MODDAN Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 Is it normal customer service policy that airsoft123.com doesn#t answer emails? So far my experience has been just that. Their correspondence could really be improved a lot. I sent them an email on the 20th (yes... a sunday, so some lagg is expected) but I have yet to receive a reply. My order was placed with them on the 12th of this month, and yet no word, no tracking number, no reply. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nazio Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 (edited) Maybe it is only me one lucky *better if i edit this one*, but i cant say bad word about them. When parcel did not appear on the horizon then they answered very quick and provided me with picture of proof of postage. Delay in answere was something about one or two days.

Bamse Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Picked up my order a few hours ago from airsoftbuddy after being stuck a week in customs. Not sure what the hell they were doing, because the parcel wasn't even touched. Anywho. jizzy chrizzy the gun is loud Everything works like a charm so far (been blasting ~10 mags o co2 and bb's) except for the boltcatch working like one time out of 10, tops. Due to indoor range i havent been testing range or hop. Gonna do a more thourough dig-in tonight When it comes to lubing tho. The shops here in Gothenburg don't stock the brands of lube discussed in this thread and on the we-m4-wiki. What's the main things to look for? Silicone spray for trigger set? High weight silicone based oil for cylinder? Grease for bolt etc. ... well, what? PFTE-based? Lithium? MoS4? thanks in advance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
