oldgamefreak Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 The FF will bolt up but if I remember correctly you will need a stubby gas block. it will help hold the front of the barrel on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phenom1 Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 (edited) I have to say that I love this platform so much that I now own two KJW M4's. Â One is serialized and the other is not. There are some definite differences between the two. I will do my best to explain what I have found so far. Â Outer appearances are identical except for the end of the stock outer barrel being a lighter color on the non-serialized version. I didn't take any pictures because I don't think the difference is enough to show on the pic. Also, the hole exposing the mag release spring that I discovered in the magwell of my serialized gun is non existent in the other. Â The BCG tells two different tales. Â Â Â The BCG on top is the non-serialized version. As you can see they are identical except for the weight at the back of the serialized version. Â Â This weight definitely has an effect on ROF. The non-serialized version and unweighted BCG has a much higher ROF. You would think the weighted BCG would have more felt recoil but the opposite is true. Maybe because the cycle happens so much faster in the non-weighted BCG. Â Â Now the pistons. Â Â Starting from the left is Cradle Airsoft's O-Ring Piston. In the middle is the stock piston from the serialized BCG. To the right is the stock piston in the non-serialized BCG. These pistons are all very different, but the clear winner is the Cradle for is longevity. Â Â I will be installing TB barrrels in both this week. I did notice that the hop-up on the serialized version worked flawlessly where as the non-serialized version will probably need the shrink tube fix. I will take pictures once I get them both apart and see if there are any differences. Edited April 6, 2010 by Phenom1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Raven1 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 @Phenom The absence of the weight in the Bolt Carrier group is to facilitate better full auto fire and help maintain gas efficiency as less gas is needed to complete a bolt cycle. Â @senators2094 Those front sets should work fine and just bolt right on. As a rule of thumb: if it is a quality AEG Front set then it will simply bolt right on with no fitment issues. I am using the G&P Defender Front set on mine. Â Using a free float rail will give you more consistent shot groups - Not Tighter but More Consistent Using a tight bore inner barrel yields tighter shot groups with improved velocity and range. Using a free float rail in conjunction with a tight bore barrel yields markedly improvement in consistency and tight grouping. In a word - "Fantastic!" Â My personal set up is: G&P Defender front rail set KJW Factory Barrel Machined down to 10.5" (this was done to keep the factory Hop Up at Stock Factory Configuration) Cradle Airsoft Madbull V2 Tight Bore Inner Barrel I have been very satisfied with the performance. Â @slipknot1971 Yes - I am having my lower machined to fit a RS Buffer tube! Yes - I am using a free float rail, I recommend them highly! Truth be told I have a Great respect for the Engineering of the KJW/TK M4! The more I learn / discover about the design of the gun the more impressed I am by the function and the simplicity of the design. The simplicity of the design also plays heavily into the durability / reliability / accuracy of the platform. You this very obvious by just disassembling the gun, looking at the quality of the parts. Lets be honest, look at the hop up halves and how it is held onto the inner barrel. The components are not the highest quality and yet the hop up working like magic!

Lets you stay out in the field until You Break Down - Not the gun. No other Platform Can Claim This Right Out Of the Box! Not Right Out Of The Box - No Other Gun. What We Have Here Gentlemen Is The AK-47 of the GBBR World! The design isn't the prettiest or the most CNC'd; it just simply works. Being a 'True' JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) product Tanio Kobayashi designed the gun for the Japanese Market. That being said some design aspects of the gun were employed so that there is no possible way the gun could be fitted to fire actual rounds. This ideology was designed into the buffer tube - again the gun runs great. But I Absolutely Abhor the buffer tube! My Magpul MILSPEC CTR Stock fits fine, as do most carbine stocks. My personal preference is to have a stock mounted sling mount ( Magpul A.S.A.P. Plate or Similar Single Point Plate) on the gun. I have no issue doing this as the guide rod in the charging handle keeps the BCG moving linear and flat. It is due to this guide rod that there is no "Yawing" or "Pitch" in the Y - Axis. Due to the guide rod, the BCG can ONLY move linear away from battery and similarly back to full battery. It is due to this guide rod that the carrier will strike / contact in the center of the buffer in the same place every time.

The design is mature and has been proven, bought and paid for by the lives of the American service men and women over the last 40 years. When it comes to weapons platforms there is No Bigger After market than the AR After Market. Having said that, here is the work being performed: -- The Stock KJW M4 Metal Buffer Weighs 72 Grams -- The brass inner buffer has been removed. The bore where the brass buffer connects has been drilled to a larger diameter using 1-1/8" Drill Bit, The bore will be threaded to the proper size using a Stoner Tube Tap Tube Tap 1-3/16"-16 threads per inch, RS DPMS Castle Nut, RS DSA 6 Position Buffer Tube, RS Magpul A.S.A.P. Plate, Airsoft AABB Aluminum Speed Buffer (Machined to 72 Grams) Airsoft AABB Summer Weight Spring (Since I Primarily Use Propane) I will update a range report and document with plenty of pictures the work being done on the gun.

Raven1 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 WoW! Â It appears I need to learn how to post! Â My apologies to to Arnie's and the Always Excellent Arnie's Moderators! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
senators2904 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 thanks fellas for the info... my only question is to raven1. Â when you said you had your barrel machined down to the 10.5" so you can keep the factory hop-up at stock factory configuration what do you mean exactly? if i were to get a tight bore that ran the full length of the outer barrel would that effect my hop-up in a bad way vs good? i apologize if i sound like block head.

Raven1 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) when you said you had your barrel machined down to the 10.5" so you can keep the factory hop-up at stock factory configuration what do you mean exactly? if i were to get a tight bore that ran the full length of the outer barrel would that effect my hop-up in a bad way vs good?  What I Mean Exactly,  My Outer Barrel is essentially the Stock Factory KJW M4 Barrel. Only the very End of the barrel was cut down on a lathe for a total length of 10.5" or 266.7mm. I did this so the hop up assembly is in stock factory form - Only the length was changed. Stock KJW Inner Barrel was still recessed into the 10.5" barrel. The Cradle Airsoft Tight Bore Inner Barrel was machined to match my outer barrel perfectly!  A Full Length Tight Bore Inner Barrel Will NOT Negatively Affect Your Hop Up At All. ( Well As Long As You're Using A Cradle Inner Barrel ) The Hop Up Assembly Doesn't Care How Long Your Barrel Is. It Only Cares That It Is Assembled Correctly!  Please Remember:  Use teflon tape to keep the inner barrel securely in place in the outer barrel. Teflon tape the muzzle end of the inner barrel, Teflon tape just in front of the Hop Up Assembly, Use a little extra wrapping around the barrel as the Teflon tape will compress - Being teflon it will slide inside the outer barrel smooothly. This Mod produces consistent shot groupings as the barrel is NOT "Bouncing" around inside the outer barrel.  The process is as follows:  Remove outer barrel from gun, Remove inner barrel / hop up assembly from gun, Remove flash hider, Remove metal fore end / cover from gun, Measure out 10.5" from where Barrel Nut Contacts the Barrel - NOT From The Very End of the Barrel - But Where the Barrel Nut Fastens the barrel down. Machine on lathe, The outside of the barrel at the muzzle end is the correct diameter @ 1/2" or 12.7mm Machine threads on Outside Diameter of Barrel which is 1/2" - 28 TPI Since a lathe is being used you can go clock wise or counter clockwise with the threading - Your Choice  Using the section of the barrel that was cut off as a template lay side by side with metal outer front section, Mark the metal outer barrel front section, Cut front section ( I used a band saw ) so that the muzzle brake threads are exposed. All Done,,   Edited April 7, 2010 by Raven1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

suicidalsnowman Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 @Raven1 Â I just wanted to check before buying one, but were you able to fit a magpul ASAP plate to your stock buffer tube, or is that one of the reasons for getting a real milspec one fitted? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raven1 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) @suicidalsnowman NO - In Stock Factory Form the Magpul A.S.A.P Plate Will NOT fit on the KJW/ M4.  To answer your question - Having the Ability to use a single point attachment stock plate is 1 of 3 Reasons WHY the mod is being performed.  MILSPEC Buffer Mod Will Facilitate:  1. Allow for use of 'Legacy' latch plates - Specifically - Latch Plates that allow for AMBI Single Point Sling Attachment.  Here are a few examples, http://www.brownells...SLING_CONNECTOR http://dynamicarmame...pter-detail.htm https://www.danielde...l&product_id=78  2. Allow for Proper fitment of MILSPEC stocks - Looking for 100% Zero Movement  3. Allow for greater after market choices in Buffers, Buffer Springs and Buffer Tubes. Buffer tubes choices will grow to 4 - 5 - 6 position option(s).  This is important to me because I Not Only use my KJW M4 for Airsofting but my KJW M4 also pulls double duty as a training rifle to save money on brass. The Economy of motion and More Importantly the Manual Of Arms MUST Be Identical so that the exact same habits are maintained. The intent is to avoid "Training Scars" and to be consistent.

suicidalsnowman Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) @Raven1 Â Well thanks for saving me from finding that one out the hard way! Â I doubt I'm going to be able to find anyone in the UK with the requisite taps so for the moment I'll have to put up with it being out of spec. Â Although to anyone with a Magpul CTR stock, does the friction lock cut out the stock wobble? Edited April 7, 2010 by suicidalsnowman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
johnyew Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 anyone putting in the TB notice that the hopup seems fatter around the new barrel? Â That's because the channel where the hop bucking fits into is not deep enough. If you have a caliper, you can measure between the stock KJW inner barrel and your TB.

t_hum Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) I have a question for anyone out there that has both non-serialized and serialized guns (Phenom1, thats you most likely): Â Have you observed any difference in hardness of the bucking between the two models. Kai and I were on the phone yesterday discussing the hop issues some people are having and it seems like most if not all that are having problems own a non-serialized gun. Im thinking that the rubber compound could have changed between runs and resulted in a stiffer bucking on non-serialized guns. I know people are adding material to the hop arm but the more I study this issue I think the hop arms are all identical and the fix that people are doing is just curing the symptoms of the problem and not the actual problem itself. Â @suicidalsnowman: Â The lock on my CTR cuts out about 95% of the wobble. If you crank on it the stock will wobble but during normal use its negligible and a non-issue for me.

(Before I do it myself.. just in case I ruin something.) Â 3) Is there a guide or listing for combinations of rings and FPS for T_Hum's velocity reducer?

Â 1) Make sure you dont have the hop set too high. Having it really high can cause weird issues. Also, any chance you are getting left over silicone lube in the hop chamber from your cleaning/lubing? Â 2) Yes, Â 3) I posted it a while back but its so temperature and gas dependent it was meant just to serve as a guide. In any case here they are again: Tests done with .20g bbs, propane, hop off, 70 deg F, and using the o-ring in front of the listed spacings... Â 0.000 | 385 0.040 | 360 0.060 | 340 0.080 | 325 0.100 | 310 0.120 | 285 Â 4) No full stock options yet as far as I know. I haven't worked on one nor have I grabbed a RS stock to see if it could be made to fit. Im sure it could be with a custom part or two made.

t_hum Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Not that Ive observed. I've personally installed barrels in both non-serialized KJWs and Japan spec TK's in the last month using the standard cut barrels I send out to everyone. They all fit without a hiccup. I suppose its possible that there are some weird out of spec rubbers out there but that seems unlikely at best. Â @prodigy: Â Are you having a problem or just saying it seems fatter?
