frogfish Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Hut how did you get your hands on the parts for another upper, I've been wanting to build a ~10.5 inch Mk18 upper.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weekenny Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 KJW directly supply uppers you'll need a fair few other small parts to make a complete swappable spare. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Brister Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 pretty odd thinghappened today. first time playing with new v2 installed (never had a v1 and previous v2 worn down) and the ring on the charging handle broke with only about 6k rounds through it! never heard of this happening on the kjw and i am somewhat dissapointed, but i do like the fact that spares are an e-mail away.

frogfish Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 weekeny, do they just supply the blank, or are we talking castle nut, dust cover, outter barrel ect? I guess I could also email them and ask.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weekenny Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 When I got a V2 upper I just ordered by part number so got a blank upper and loading ramp (parts 1 & 2 iirc). I suppose you could ask for a complete upper or list the numbers, I got a complete V2 bolt just by asking rather than using numbers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mcc-dano Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Was the upper plastic or metal? Â Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weekenny Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Metal, KJW seem to have no problem with metal uppers for the UK. Only US shipping seems to be a problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hut73 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Hut how did you get your hands on the parts for another upper, I've been wanting to build a ~10.5 inch Mk18 upper.... Â Frog, I'll touch base w/ you re: the afg. Â As for the upper, I bought Zebco's kjw a long while back. When I found someone selling the Troy ris I've been looking for, I decided not to sell the gun as a whole, which leaves me the complete lower sitting unused... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve3057 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Hey gang I'm getting out of the GBBR world and back into AEG's . Selling my kjw if any of you guys in the US are interested. http://orlando.craigslist.org/spo/3177588564.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Brister Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 steve, would you part out on spare parts? im looking for a charging handle and bucking if you have either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Landa Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 yea, me too, i sent you an email already, if its a V1, i would love the whole upper, including the BCG, or just the V1 BCG and a couple of the mags. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mcc-dano Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Sent email for the whole package. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Man Bear 88 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 This is my first post on arnies, but I've been reading this for awhile, and have trying to make up my mind. steve3057 putting his up for sale has made up my mind that is just to good of a deal to pass up. PM'd^ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
swishy Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 I'm considering selling my KJW as well. It's 100% functional, with extra parts and mags. I also comes with a bit of magpul stuff. I'm not sure if I really want to sell it, so I'm not going to put up an ad just yet. PM me if you are interested. BTW: I'm not willing to part out. At all. So don't even ask. Continental USA ony please. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve3057 Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Sorry I did not respond quickly to your questions. The gun is sold. Thank you to everyone who expressed interest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sandstorm Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Guys, please, read the rules, no sales posts outside sales forum, and it doesn't take that much to get access to the sales forum. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Brister Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 hi guys, for some reason, i cant seem to threadlock my buffer tube screw (part 97 i believe) ive tried multiple times but when im screwing in the screw, the loctite just comes out of the top. which leads me to my next issue, since ive repeatedly removed and torqued down the screw, i am very close to stripping it. i am planning on ordering a spare, but would much rather head to lowes or home depot to get one, are they availiable there? Thanks for the help Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the help  Hmm have you thought about teflon tape + loctite? Also try having the threads on the screw covered with dried loctite and then put it in, that might help. For finding a spare check Home Depot, Lowes, Ace, Orchard etc. for a screw that size and make sure to bring the nearly stripped one in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Brister Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 alright thanks, ill be sure to do that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nath Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 I read in this topic, that it is possible to fit a real steel charging handle, it will need some grinding, but it is possible. Anyone did that and can show me a pic or two (or at least describe where to grind)? I would like to install vltor handle to increase bling bling factor, but if I had to grind down tle vltor logo there would be no bling . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
