BARsrule2 Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Titleist, where'd you get the Troy 1 Pt. for 50-60 bucks? Because they retail for around $30! Link to post Share on other sites
freq88 Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 freg, thx for the reply actually I meant this with heatshields: http://www.airsoft-war4.com/photos//200312020699.jpg its not the brand but the length Im unsure about, which length would you suggest? I know keyzer has some similar to those: http://www.airsoft-war4.com/photos//200505284919.jpg but he doesnt respond to my pm, maybe his inbox is full... ( http://www.depot53.com/178/News%20Releases/SOPMOD%20lg.jpg here you can see the actual m14 sopmod rail length) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oh OK. Either one's will work. The first one's are rail covers and not heatshields. You can cut them down to size you want to. But they do sell different sized covers. Judging from the looks of the side rails I'd say a 4 rib - 5 rib rail cover. If you're able to try and get the magpul xtr rail covers since they are designed to be "cut-to-fit" solution. The second one's are called rail ladders. They come mostly in one size but are easily cutable. Link to post Share on other sites

tmas Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Well it seems my M14 is once again delayed in its creation, as the person I bought it from *fruitcage*ed up the gearbox a bit with his inept handling, this really isn't looking good. Link to post Share on other sites

shankskank Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 UPDATE OF MY M14 NOW SINGLE SHOT SHOOTING 340FPS <{POST_SNAPBACK}> looks awesome, i love desert camo 2 things though i think you shoudl have done a couple more brown lines, and done them more at an angle like the front ones, but not all the same angle, because it would look too uniform, the stripes in the back are perfectly straight up and down. but still, it looks cool. also, next time, try not to type in all caps, but i understand if the keyboard wasnt working Link to post Share on other sites
brgold Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 My M14 in its sniper setup with my homemade cheekrest, I will have to get some pics of the scout setup but the camera died. Thanks to Tunershark for the scope. Link to post Share on other sites

Its hard for me to judge what that would be in American Dollars, but its rougly double, and brand new that'd cost you, (350+40+22x4) 580 USD which is roughly 290 GBP thats w/out shipping so yes that is a good deal Link to post Share on other sites

shankskank Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 its really nice, but i think you should have left the metal parts black, and just painted the stock and handguard Link to post Share on other sites
Mikeydog Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 So I am about to purchase a TM M14 OD and figured I might as well have it upgraded when I buy it since I will upgrade it anyway. So this is what I was thinking for the complete package tell me what you think and if there is anything I should add. TM M14 OD Fiber Stock Prometheus spring Steel bushings G&P Middle Gear (Super Troque Up) Systema Steel Gears Guarder Enhanced Tappet for Marui Ver.7 Gearbox G&P Steel Spring Guide for Marui Ver.7 Gearbox King Arms M14 Scope Mount Base 3 G&P 160rnd M14 Mags Thanks..

Carbine Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 My brand spankin' new Aimpoint Comp sight, straight from Afganistan, mounted on my TM M14 with a Bassett Machine co. scope mount base. Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Pretty cool, I'm not a big fan of that mount though. Yowza. Link to post Share on other sites
Carbine Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Titleist, I'm not too fond of it either. I'll probably get an ARMS later, but right now all of my money is going toward my PTW, M249 and ACU loadout Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 (edited) Yeah the ARMS are definitly the best. Just annoying since you have to re-thread the receiver to fit it. Ah well. But they're solid as a rock. It's not so much that the current one looks bad, it just looks way too civilian in form factor. Edited May 10, 2006 by Titleist Link to post Share on other sites
Carbine Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Yeah, I agree on the civilian look. I'd like to get a Knight's RAS, but it's so expensive that I'll need to pass on it for now. I need one for my PTW first Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 For what you get the real KAC M14 RAS is a rip off, but it's a specialty item, so I guess they can charge whatever they want for it. Link to post Share on other sites

It's not so much that the current one looks bad, it just looks way too civilian in form factor. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I wouldn't go so far as calling the Armscorp 18 the best scope mount for the M1A. The biggest problem I had was that the Armscorp mount was NOT intended to be mounted on commerical receivers. I would say it's a very good mount. It wasn't something I noticed while shooting but someone noticed one casing hitting against the bottom of the mount. I was told I would eventually loose my zero. Mouting it, although not difficult, I could not properly do...it all depends on who made the receiver. On airsoft any mount works right? Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 True dat. However from my experience on my real M1A I haven't experienced any issues with ejecting shells interfering with the ARMS 18 mount. Link to post Share on other sites
