Cam Keo SOC16 Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Negative. I wish I could find that one picture I was talking about, it's awesome, I'll have to dig around some more. Link to post Share on other sites
sf_cheng Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Same TM M14 as before. No more fuzzy slippers in the way though This one is my fav pic Link to post Share on other sites
UrPeaceKeeper Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 New Pictures of my CA M14, Got my Bipod Mount today so now its got a Bipod!!! Â Â Rofl I just realized that the fire selector in both shots is midway between Semi and Auto. The reason is the fire selector my father and I made doesnt exactly click into place each time. Thats ok, because it works once its in the firing position it stays pretty tightly. Â Link to post Share on other sites

Fellowz Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 I really like the look of the ACOG + M14. Got any pics of the Socom with an ACOG? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â Â there are a few about 10 pages back. Â yeah i want an ACOG on my M14. i was trawling through the thread looking for a pic of an ACOG on a normal M14. Link to post Share on other sites
azngoonie313 Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 hmm i've actually never seen an ACOG on an m14 looks kinda awkward Link to post Share on other sites
azngoonie313 Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 big scope + m14= sex! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â hahaha hell yee Link to post Share on other sites
Fellowz Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 altho i love big scopes, i find them a little usless in airsoft. your not going to be shooting someone from 800 yards away so a red dot or a cheap long scope should do it. Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 limit the gun to semi and you can have higher FPS usually, and in the USA site limits tend to be a lot higher anyway. with an upgrades TM M14 you could probably get crazy range Link to post Share on other sites
Fellowz Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 yeah get it upto about 800fps  the hopup has got to do with range more than the power. Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 yes, but with the TM's already great hop up power will certainly make a difference (as with any gun) Link to post Share on other sites
luvs2shoot Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 altho i love big scopes, i find them a little usless in airsoft. your not going to be shooting someone from 800 yards away so a red dot or a cheap long scope should do it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>  im pretty sure any scope that's over 4X is too much  4X is perfect, it's quicker to aim and actually USEFUL for airsoft.  seeing that ur average "hit" occurs btwn 30 to 90 feet Link to post Share on other sites
Fellowz Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 and not 10 times that. Â im going to make my M14 bestly before long. ill get it upgraded with metal bushings, new reinforced gears, a new spring guide, piston headn, J1 spring Link to post Share on other sites
druid799 Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 heres my baby , fully upgraded internally , metal bushes, gears , new piston et"all fires at 348fps , and i love her ! Â Link to post Share on other sites
t3hDesertFox Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 The glass on my M14 is 3-9 magnification. Although I agree some zoom is excessive, I use mine for target acquisition and identification as well. You'd be surprised how hard it is to ID people moving way off in the distance at our games.

msx361 Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 ...power will certainly make a difference (as with any gun) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â Not really, it will just get to its max range range quicker then lose all accuracy. Ive just down graded my m14 from 470 to 330 and the only difference i have noticed is the slower travel rate of the bb. Range has not been effected at all. Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 but surely it should make a difference due to inertia alone, if something is traveling faster (and therefore with more energy since were talking about the same projectile weight) it will take longer to slow down so it won't hit the ground as quickly.

Guinness Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 yeah, what is that law from physics class again?  "Objects in motion tend to stay in motion"....."until they find my wide butt on the battlefield and then they tend to hit me square in the a$$!"  ...or something like that        -G Link to post Share on other sites

NotZeroSix Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Is there a reliable or reinforce v7 gearbox that will handle springs more than >m170? Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 That's all well and good, but nothing is that simple. Yeah in a perfect world were nothing would effect a projectile, it would stay in motion. But it's not  A bb isn't exactly aerodynamic and it's natural flight path is to nose dive! (try taking you nib out of your hop unit and you will see what i mean). It still goes the same distance, it just gets there faster and then accuracy is out of the window and random variables take complete control (meaning weather/environment ect).  It is a common misconception that adding FPS will automatically equal more range, there are simply too many other factors. 328-500fps range is practically the same (over that i have no idea as that is my countrys legal FPS limit).  If you want to be enlightened and find out more, search this forum there is so much info here, some with semi scientific tests(!) that support what i am saying. And i will leave it there  Any way back on topic;  G&P make a 7mm reinforced gearbox but i haven't got any experience with it, but it should be able to cope with it considering it's claiming to be 'reinforced Link to post Share on other sites

ardrummer292 Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Nice SOCOM, Golf. I just got mine last Tuesday, and zeroed her in at about 150 ft (with about a 8-10'' grouping!). Link to post Share on other sites
