mcc-dano Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Sorry two more Q's Will the M4 take RS charging handles and pistol grips? I tend to abuse my CHs a bit and dont want to snap mine. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jackster802 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 RS pistols grips should fit. RS charging handles wont fit. I'm not sure if you could modify one to fit either. Someone with a RS charging handle should compare them to see if it's possible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
swishy Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) I have compaired a RS charging handle to my KJW. It should work with a little bit of filing. The bumps on either side of the RS charging handle are thing that need to be filed down, since the KJW charging handle doesn't have them. I might do it if my KJW charging handle breaks again.

Hut73 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I'm thinking of building a M16A4 GBBR, and I would like to use TK/KJW as a base (due to reliability). I would like to use G&P M16 conversion kit (that with M5 RAS should be fine), but I'm not sure what stock should I pick? The AEG fixed stock for M16 or WA/WE/Other stock. Any hint on that matter would be helpful. Aeg fixed stock wont work given the way most of them mount internally. More than likely have to use a real steel, or gbb specific version... Riptide, all version 2 denotes is a new bcg, and some updated parts that work in conjunction w/ it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PanteraTigris Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Sad.... but i have to confirm that the version 2 bolt is not as durable as the first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Landa Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Just got mine from Airsplat, what a beauty. So solid, and snappy.. I'm in love... and i can confirm, its V.2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nath Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Aeg fixed stock wont work given the way most of them mount internally. More than likely have to use a real steel, or gbb specific version... Thnx mate. That's what I was also thinking. Getting to the other stuff that bothers me. I heard a roumor that KJW will not sell the spare metal uppers, and if you want one you must cannibalise another full kit. Is that correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I heard a roumor that KJW will not sell the spare metal uppers, and if you want one you must cannibalise another full kit. Is that correct? I know for sure that they wont sell the lowers, so I'm assuming the uppers are the same, which means a yes to cannibalizing another full gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weekenny Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 They will sell metal uppers but not to the US. I bought two a while back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
t_hum Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Ive actually found the plastic uppers to be quite nice in feel and heft. Not quite like the metal uppers but an acceptable substitute if you have an upper completely fail on you. I believe they will sell the plastic uppers to international customers.

Not quite like the metal uppers but an acceptable substitute if you have an upper completely fail on you. I believe they will sell the plastic uppers to international customers. On one hand the gun already looks like is made out of abs rather than metal, so if the ur would be plastic nobody would see the difference . On the other if the uppers/lowers are going to be plastic I think I will pass. Getting to the next topic-how are your gen 2 bolts? Nothing wrong happening? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ian Buenaventura Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 hey guys finally recieve my kj m4 today and so happy for getting it and even better!....ive been debating on which model to get and with the cqb is hard to get in the us and having mixed emails from stores out of country coz of shipping issues or whatever so ended up ordering regular length m4 from airsplat....and guess what when i open the box...cqb version!...paid regular price and got it in 4 days!...am i lucky or what Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Valkyne Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) Hey guys! Does anyone have any issue with their upper receiver wobbling? Has anyone used a magic pin, and do you believe it may put more stress on the receiver ears causing them to break (faster than normal)? I've searched for this but came up with only 2 posts, and it was in reference to RA-Tech's Magic Pin and gave me no real answers. Everyone here seems to have really tight receiver pins which makes for no wobble I assume! However, my receiver pins are loosey goosey, have been since I got the rifle. I have everything on the gun rock solid aside from the upper and it's really starting to bother me! Edited March 2, 2012 by Valkyne Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jackster802 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Mine does it too. Your not alone. Magic pins didn't fit. I used electrical tape to shim it so that it fits snug. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hut73 Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Mine does it too. Your not alone. Magic pins didn't fit. I used electrical tape to shim it so that it fits snug. Correct. My upper does not have the wobble issue that you're having. I do have a magic pin left over from a WOC I used to own, and it does not fit... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mcc-dano Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 The only uppers available are direct from KJW. The cqb ris can be paired with an m203 on my old barrel mount short 203 I had to custom make a front hoop as it was right on the flash hider. Is the RIS strong enough for it or does it wobble a lot? I remember seeing something about the RIS they ship with being of...suspect quality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PanteraTigris Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 The fix we do to stop the wobble is to adjust the inner buffer tube into the lower receiver, enough that it will push the upper slightly forward for a snug fit. I don't know which country they don't sell the metal uppers and lowers but they do to us here in the P.I. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cj Radge Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Mine does it too. Your not alone. Magic pins didn't fit. I used electrical tape to shim it so that it fits snug. Same here, I use small plastic sheet to shim between upper and lower receiver, 100% no wobble. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frogfish Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Mine replicates the wobble on my real ARs almost flawlessly, Kai_Wolf's on the other hand has a bit too much wobble. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weekenny Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 My V1 with a V2 metal upper is rock solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Landa Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 (edited) Well, i installed a bunch of externals today. Noveske 10 inch (had to leave the gas tube removed, too poor to afford a low profile atm) and a bunch of magpul stuff... a short suppressor too, meant for pistols, only 5 inches, but gives it a nice look imo... I couldn't not get the RIS all the way in at the start because the pin that keeps the dust cover in place is extremely long... i removed it and flipped it... new problem, it falls backwards... so i put a drop of gorilla glue on it, lol...fixed.. I did the "trademarks mod" on it too... grabbed a white pastel and rubbed it on the selector indicators/ engravings/ words... looks great Now my clone ACS is a bit wobbly too, any ideas? Also, this desperately needs an optic, what do you guys thing? M2? T1? XPS? C more? Speceter? Edited March 6, 2012 by Landa Quote Link to post Share on other sites
def3kt Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 In regards to stock wobble, I've always used a small strip of the soft part of a Velcro/hook and loop set to stop wobble in mags and stocks. You'll have to trial and error how much you need for a perfect fit. I usually stick it on the stock opposed to the buffer tube. Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Landa Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I actually tried duct tape, but its too thick and deteriorates as you manipulate the stock.. also i applied it to the buffer tube, I'm gonna try on the stock next time. But, will definitely drop buy a hardware store and buy some velcro! Another thing i noticed, when installing the pistol grip... the selector spring is actually slanted? thats not GBB normal right? i just pushed in the grip and it worked fine... although the selector is not as hard as it used to, maybe a bit too weak... i know i didn't loose part 44 because part 79, the spring, never fell from the lower receiver. Has anyone noticed that when installing aftermarket pistol grips? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
