Panoptes Posted April 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Army Code didn't produce an L119A1 receiver (as far as I'm aware). They produced a front sight though. Link to post Share on other sites
Mutronics Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 You guys are the dogs dangley bits for the numerous L119A1 builds on here. Thanks for the inspiration from here, i've been building my own Diemaco for a few months now. Last time i checked it, it was having some electrical problems that my local smithy was sorting for the next game. Expect some photos when i get it back. :0 Parts list include... Pro-Arms L119A1 Barrel w/ TM M4 Flash Hider (£60 from ehobbyasia) Dboys Gearbox (custom build by gun smith, £30) CA AR-15 Metal Body (£40, Looks tosh, but it works till i replace it.) Dboys 7" RIS (£30) TM 4 position stock w/ tube (£60, came with the donor body which broke.) Guarder AR Buttpad (£15, fire-support) ACM 1xmag ACOG (£45, Personal trader) Dboys Double Slingloop (£10, Ebay) Webtex SA80 Sling(£8, Ebay) Needed/Wanted parts G&P C8 SFW body/L119A1 Body Diemaco Front sight 4x Ris Protectors ACM 4xMag ACOG Been trying to build it on the cheap, buying 2nd hand as much as i can, but the cost still ran up to £300! I have the Large AR grip made by Guarder, but the guy working on it said the plastic partition between the grip and the GB was too wide for him to be confident on keeping it on the gun and being stable enough to use. Anyone else had this problem? It's a massive pity as this would pretty much complete the "impression" of the gun... Let us know what you think fellas. I get photo's as soon as i can.

Banshee_Will Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Quick question to the gurus...... would it be possible to use a CA electric blowback M4? Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 It would be, but the armalite trades are a bit unauthentic - Not like it really matters, but if you want to use a CA BB M4 and make it look proper authentic, give it a decent paintjob to cover the trades.

abbadon101 Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Bit of a necro-post but what the hey. My Build In the 16" And the 10(.5 at the moment until I can get the correct barrel)" with surefire silencer flavours Based around being some of the first batch with C8 rather than L119 Trades. But hose can't be seen because of the ready mag. Still very nice gun all said and the GB sounds amazing inside a tin shed Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Hmm.. thought I put mine up here, strange. Well, easily fixed. Link to post Share on other sites
Blackjack13 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Thanks for this thread P, and everyone who's contributed! I've been growing increasingly tempted to do a UKSF loadout but the gun was proving a pain, but now I have a means to spend more money! Quick Q - what's the rule on rear sights? From all the pics of airsoft jobbies I've seen there aren't any, but seems a bit odd. Link to post Share on other sites
abbadon101 Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 The only Iron Sights I have seen used on these (RS that is) are the DIS carry handles, not easy to get a hold of. I wouldn't worry about BUIS or thing to that effect as I can't remember seeing them in any of the pics of the UKSF boys using these. Link to post Share on other sites
Panoptes Posted October 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 Quick Q - what's the rule on rear sights? From all the pics of airsoft jobbies I've seen there aren't any, but seems a bit odd. Do you mean the EBS - Emergency Battle Sight on the ACOG or?... Link to post Share on other sites
steel tiger Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Did ay of the L119 ever come with normal M4 nor RIS hand guards? Just was wondering. Also any pictures of them with just the cary handle no acog? Link to post Share on other sites
Vercingetorix Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Not sure on the normal polymer handguard part, but there are a boatloads of pictures of the SFWs/L119s with the rare Diemaco/Colt Canada DIS Carry handles on them, in place of the ACOGs. Link to post Share on other sites
abbadon101 Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 You mean like that? Slim line M733/XM177 handguards and a DIS carry handle Link to post Share on other sites

abbadon101 Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 if i could ever get my hands on a DIS this is how my SFW build would look, its so simple but so cool. I would too, I am thinking of doing a SFW with the DIS and handguards on a TM M4 SOCOM but the sheer cost of the DIS is putting me off. Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Could be worse, you coulda shelled out three hundred quid for a sodding SA80 RIS the week before Hornbill bring their ACM one out Could not have been more of a compliment, especially from someone like yourself Ha thanks, that SFW is damn fine.
