swishy Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the replies guys. I've don a bit of research on this gun (including reading some of this thread) and I was pretty sold on it, I just wanted to make sure there was nothing I was missing. Anyhow, I had no idea it needed those upgrade parts. Part of the reason I was interested in this was because it didn't seem to be as bad as other WE weapons (please, I don't want an arguement with this, it's just my opinion). Again, thanks for the replies, you just saved me $330. Edited February 8, 2012 by swishy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LordElpus Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 this is probably the most perfect starter gbbr gun going. good performance, good accuracy, works well in cold weather and minimal problems. Firing pin, charging handle and the screw holding the mag inner and outer together are the only potential issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
swishy Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Thanks, but I already own a KJW M4, so I'm not looking for a starter GBBR. I just need a seccondary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LordElpus Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) I think you missed my point... All it needs is some decent thread lock to keep the trigger pin in and (depending on what weight bb's you intend to use) make the hopup less aggressive. If you plan to use .28g bbs or heavier, there is no need for it. RATECH parts cause more problems then they solve imo. Edited February 8, 2012 by LordElpus Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mr.ying Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Or you can read 63 pages of this thread and see that people dont have any major problems with this gun stock, and actually more problems with the Ra-Tech upgrades. Shot a couple of thousand rounds with this on Propane and in hot climate and only part that failed was my firing pin which is a 3 dollar part. Oh! And two of my magazines' valves that were leaking and fixed by simple tightening. Even if your bolt catch fails as reported by another user, its another low cost part (4$ if I recall correctly) Cleaning and proper lubrication is the key with gas guns. You guys must have been lucky. Most of the We tech guns we receive have major problems. I guess the reason is, canada up the fps on these guns in order to let them enter. Our guns shoot at around 420+ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
swishy Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 @LordElpus, Thanks, I didn't know that. I would be using .25s in it. Thanks for all the info guys, but I'm no longer so sure about the WE G36, I think I'll start looking at someother weapons. Again, Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 +1 on the RA Tech parts. Soon as I installed them they just destroyed the trigger mech on my first G36. Got so annoyed I sold it and bought another brand new!! IMO the only parts worth installing are a TB, H-Nub, NPAS maybe a new hop rubber. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calbur20 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Anyone know a source for an OB part no 66? I tried to put an old CB version in and it didn't work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bunker buster Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 hi just got my g36e in today. had a lot of fun! nice recoil. very powerful able to punch a hole on the top of the soda can at point blank. Got some question: 1. how do one decrease the hop? which ever I turn the bbs keeps flying up. 2. the g39e does not lock open after last round? 3. if I want to convert to a g39k where can I get a shorter outer barrel? Appreciate help and tips how to maintain Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LordElpus Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 The hopup on this gun is very, very aggressive (as in rip your face off aggressive). Wthout moding the hopup you will need at least .28g bb on minimum setting to get a straight tradgectory. 0.2-0.25 are too light stock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I remember somwhere in the thread someone reinforced their origional trigger rather than replacing with a CNC one. Could anyone put me on the right page? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Se1fD3struct1om Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I have the same rifle, out of the box its amazing however I do have some issues, one is that the hop up makes the BB spin even when its turned off. the other is that my bolt will not lock to the rear on an emtpy magazine. does anyone have any suggestions to fix this?

ollie_ty Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I have an issue, has anyone had problems with full auto? in that it just epically misfeeds whenever its on full auto? Smooth as a whistle on semi though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bigtony Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) I recently picked up a WE g39 and fell in love. The kick is is exactly what I needed that my kjw 10/22 wansn't giving me I have gone through tons of threads to find mods for this gun. I want to 1. Increase recoil, but cant find any enhanced springs. Maybe a m4/scar/variant heavy spring will do. 2. Decrease fps, without Npas. I was able to do it on the 10/22 by putting an aeg shim in the nozzle. 3. Find a faster way to load these damn mags haha. If anyone has any mods for this gun I am all ears, and I will report back when I try shimming the nozzle! Cheers, -Tony Edited April 25, 2012 by bigtony Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bigtony Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 For the FPS issue, chopping the inner barrel is an easy method. Permanent unless you buy a new barrel though. Then I would need to crown the barrel, hmm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Then I would need to crown the barrel, hmm I crowned mine with the pointy end of my Tanto K-bar... I'm sure people may argue this and state the need for a precision engineered polished crown cut with a special crowning tool, but all of my barrels have been cut down with a hacksaw and crowned with said K-bar, with no change to accuracy or range. As long as you remove any burrs or excess material from the point where you've cut down the barrel, you'll be fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atsalakotos Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 So... Why go to such barbaric methods and not spare 15$ for an NPAS? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigtony Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 So... Why go to such barbaric methods and not spare 15$ for an NPAS? I've heard of problems with the npas opening and closing due to the design and kick of the npas. I also don't want to file the nozzle if I don't have to. I am just seeing if some DIY people found a way like shimming the nozzle, before I drop cash. I crowned mine with the pointy end of my Tanto K-bar...

bankz5152 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 NPAS drops the FPS - Had one in mine for 18 mlnths no failures. More recoil you'd need to add weight and stiffen the springs. Not sure that enhanced recoil will do the trick alone Use a speed loader with the pistol attachment Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ollie_ty Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Bankz, Did you ever have feeding issues When lowering the FPS? Im SURE thats the culprit for my double feeding on full auto. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 ollie, are you going to do a review on the SRC G36? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
