DrAlexanderTobacco Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Another dumb question! I've found a Guarder outer barrel for a TM P226. Would it be compatible with my KJW P226? Link to post Share on other sites
AMC1096 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 It should. Link to post Share on other sites
DrAlexanderTobacco Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Cool. It's cheap enough so no harm done if it doesn't. Link to post Share on other sites
Boomeh Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 First off I should just point out that im a big wuss. Secondly I mostly play in wooded areas so diving about is a bit particular at the best of times  So knee pads. The ones ive seen that have been marketed exclusivity at airsofters seam to be the huge bulky kind where as im looking for something that you can hide under trousers and will offer adequate protection from flinging yourself into numerous opportunities of looking like a hero.  Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.  Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
ollie_ty Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 I'd ay get neoprene ones, but thats just my suggestion. I have THESE, and while theyre great for Impact protection, they arent too great for actually kneeling on. Link to post Share on other sites
DrAlexanderTobacco Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Oh my word I have so many dumb questions. Here's another. Â I have 3 KJW P226 mags. 2 are new, and are fine. I keep them charged. The third came with the pistol, and started to leak about a week after I fired it at a skirmish and I didn't refill it. I took it apart (First bit of airsoft tech work I've done!), inspected the O-ring, lubed it up, and put it straight back in. It seemed to hold charge for about a day, then started leaking again. But very, very slowly. I let it leak, as it was leaking maybe 1% per day, and left it next to an open window. Yesterday, however, suddenly I heard hissing. Turned around, propane was spraying everywhere! Surprised my cat. Â I haven't had the chance to open it up yet. Before I do I was wondering if anyone knew what might have happened, and how I can prevent it next time. I'm guessing the O-ring blew, but when I inspected it it seemed fine. Â Thanks, Â AlexTobacco.

hawaiianjuggernaut Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Yes they will. Ive owned like 4 p90s. The p90 is one of the guns on the market where all the mags are pretty much 100 percent compatible. Link to post Share on other sites
mimesis Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 If O-rings are just a bit dried out, they can definitely be brought back. Soak for 12-24 hours in silicon oil. I believe some people use brake fluid. Â If the rubber has started to deteriorate, then I imagine you might get the result that you described. Â Experiment, too, with how gently/tightly you screw the valve/screw into the magazine. Don't over- or under-tighten. Link to post Share on other sites
dwong Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Quick question. Just got back into airsoft after a long hiatus and noticed a big price increase in Tokyo Marui products. I don't mean the new blowback/metal AEGs, but I see older models of AEGs and GBBs to be significantly more expensive. What happened? Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Cost of importing, cost of materials, copyright and licensing issues / costs, more profit for the distributor, increase in wholesaler price. Â Take you pick of the above but it is just like most things, they will go up in price gradually, sometimes by quite a bit. Â 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
JKS Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 What is a "Troll" in airsoft? And further, what is "trolling"? Sorry for the newbie question Link to post Share on other sites
Kunlun Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 I probably am being trolled by one now but here you go: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet) Â To keep this kinda on-topic: I have the habit of putting my lipo's on storage mode via the charger after a game. Is this the right way or should I just lay them around and play with them the next skirm? Average time span between skirms is +- 3 weeks. Link to post Share on other sites
Triggerhappychappy Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 Storage charge for sure- you do not want to be leaving lipos 'flat' for 3 weeks, they will be a nightmare to charge up the next time you come to use them otherwise ( they will slowly self discharge when left alone, more so when they are low on voltage ).

ED-SKaR Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 To (to confirm) You want to leave lipos fuly charged for long periods, rather than half or empty? Â So different from nicad/nimh Link to post Share on other sites
Triggerhappychappy Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 To (to confirm) You want to leave lipos fuly charged for long periods, rather than half or empty?  So different from nicad/nimh  No!  If you are storing them for more than a few days ( a week at the most ) then they must be half-charged. Any decent lipo charger will have a storage mode which half charges the pack ( ~3.8v per cell, 50% capacity ).  Leaving lipos fully charged for too long will cause serious degradation of the anode and cathode inside the cells.

Brooxy Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Anyone know where I can get a left handed serpa for a PX4? Contemplating a second PX4 for some akimbo goodness, but my google-fu is weak... Link to post Share on other sites

Â About the only places as it is an uncommon gun design and needs a specific holster, plus left handed would also be an issue. Â 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites

Brooxy Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Dang. I've found right handed ones all over the place. Guess I'll have to go with using my M9 on the left side. Â While I'm here, anyone know what screw is used at the front of the TM L96 to hold the barrel to the lower body? Mine went walkabout on a skirmish a few weeks ago, so the gun is now only held together by two screws... Link to post Share on other sites
Brooxy Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Double post! Please disregard my L96 question. I've found the answer. In case anyone ever needs to know, it's an M5x10. I added a locking washer to my new one, just to make sure I didn't lose it again. Link to post Share on other sites
DrAlexanderTobacco Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Here's a stupid question - I've removed the screw from the inside of the buffer tube, from my G&P M4. It's not coming off, though. There are two tiny allen nuts on the tube as well. Do I need to remove them? A shame if so, as I don't have an allen key that small Link to post Share on other sites
ltolstoy Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 How do you stop wobble on the stock? and how do u know when the spring is decompressed Link to post Share on other sites
ollie_ty Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Electrical tape for stock wobble. Â Fire off a shot in semi to decompress the spring. Alternatively, you can cut a notch onto the anti reversal latch, and use a flathead screwdriver to disengage it. Link to post Share on other sites
