Hut73 Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 Don't PDI make them under order? No, PDI does not make custom barrels anymore... Sent from my totally sexy, Android powered, IPod killing, Samsung Galaxy S3 ;-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rabianegra Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 Maybe Edgi can make a barrel for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Short Stack Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 How hard would it be top drop a p*, prowin p90 hopup and an orga 363 in this thing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Voxcaster Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Most retailers list this as having a 'modified V2 gearbox' so I'm sure you'd have to do at least some work to get it to fit, it won't be a drop-in. No idea about the hopup and inner barrel, though I'd assume any inner barrel would fit easily. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No idea about the hopup and inner barrel, though I'd assume any inner barrel would fit easily. You would have to look, but there is a thread out on the web about a guy installing a v2 P* in one, and how he's had to go about doing it. I seem to remember the latest issues were getting the box mag to work w/ the fcu. Although supposedly, P*'s latest fcu's resolve some of those issues from what I remember...

Wingmann Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'm sitting with a friend's MK23 that i've tested over a long time. The barrel is replaced, and it doesn't work properly. It can move back and fort 1-2mm, and while it mostly shoots ok, at some point the hopup rubber gets moved forward too and the nozzle loses seal. I'm having that same problem with the standard barrel I think. My FPS dropped about 80FPS, but the compression in the cylinder is excellent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Voxcaster Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Can you fix this with tape? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wingmann Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I can use PTFE for other parts, but I don't feel it'd solve this problem. If I set the barrel + rubber correctly the C-clip won't "click" in its place. If I pull gently from the barrel it'll move a bit then click, but I guess that's causing a gap that ruins the air seal, and that's with the default barrel. I either need a different kind of rubber that is thicker at the BB side or make a ~1mm extension ring for the barrel so it keeps the notches in their place while pushing the rubber further up the chamber...

kken Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 While I love my Stoner, it has been giving me fits. I've fielded it 3 times now and it has not worked an entire day yet. The first time, it was DOA so in the boot it went. Second time I brought it out, it worked great at the range... until the piston shattered once I took the field. Third time which was like 2 weeks ago, it rocked for the first half of the day, and then there was a misfeed which caused the piston to lock back. Pretty frustrating... I would boot it from the arsenal if it weren't so sexy... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wingmann Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 I had to change a stripped piston the first time I fielded it, so I took my time to correct the AoE and check the shimming. I also changed the spring, as the one I had when it arrived gave only 265FPS (I'm guessing it was a 340FPS spring but the barrel-to-nozzle problem was already there). However my problem is that I either have another barrel installed or mine is defective, because I can't get proper air seal with the nozzle. I get 320FPS when I should be getting 390-400. I don't think the guys at Safara changed it for a standard barrel, but it's hard to know, as they haven't answered my e-mails. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
