SLR 8" SBR build done. Just waiting for a few accessories (sling end plate, AAC Blast Shield, Cloud Defensive LCS, and an actual working ScoutLight head) and repairing my BTC Spectre, but otherwise al

Hey all! I kind of stumbled upon this thread by accident while searching for M16A2 receiver markings on google and saw one of Catgut's amazing VT's. Which brought me here I have been working on

One of my latest build, a real Colt M16A1 converted for GBBR on the WA system. Stripped upper, barrel and BCG was changed to Viper Tech du to my local laws. Also a video of how it was made:

My personal lightweight AR build!

Based on a DYTAC BCM carbine, it has nice engraved trademarks and a lovely Ceracote finish. I don't baby my kit and tend to throw my stuff around, and the finish has a few nicks and dings here and there but for the most part, it's held up great!

The DYTAC gearbox and lower receiver have a great quick-change spring mechanism that lets me swap springs out with a single screw, which I love as it means I can run this in CQB at <1J or in woodland at 1.25J.

I feed it with DYTAC's new transparent HEXMAG midcaps, which I've tinted a darker grey to cut down on reflections. There's a video review of those in the works, but they feed beautifully and the transparent versions are great as you can quickly see how much ammo you have left to get those tactical reloads in at the best times.

Externally:
- DYTAC 13" BCM base AEG (14.5" barrel)
- DYTAC BCM GF pistol grip, keymod foregrip and B5 stock in WG
- DYTAC T1 replica on a QD mount
- PTS Gen 1 MBUS
- PTS ASAP plate
- RetroArms CNC trigger, bolt catch, forward assist, selector and selector cap in black
- FMA CNC ambidextrous magazine catch in black
- DYTAC BCM Muzzle break

Internally:
- SHS 16tpa Neo Motor
- SHS 12:1 gears ss-3
- M120 spring
- DYTAC FMR piston and piston head with bearing
- Viton O ring
- G&P cylinder head with Sorbo
- DYTAC gearbox with QSC, radius'd
- G&P M4 air nozzle with O ring
- GATE V2 TITAN
- DYTAC Rotary hop unit
- Mapleleaf Crazy Jet 410mm barrel and 50deg hop rubber
- M nub

She does 1.25J @38rps on an 11.1v lipo and flings 0.28g bbs over 60m+ easily.

Don't see the point really. Externally they look the same and there is no GBB specific threads for anything else.

One thing I would appreciate though is if people would write what the picture is of, make, model, specs, upgrades, externals etc. so at least you know 😛

As much as I like the look of it (and I do) I do have to ask why this ?

your profile say your located in Edinburgh so your a UK player which means at 404fps you can’t use this gun over here ???

Plus says perfect size for CQB , and it is , but yet again if you use a 50rps gun in that environment there’s going to be some very angry and P***ed off players on the other team .

well confused mate by your train of thought for this build mate .

? He only mentioned 1.05j, that's basically 337 fps, as for 50 rps, I guess that's site dependant but if you are only allowed to use semi indoors and full auto outdoors, then the extra rps would be nice even in semi for trigger responsiveness, and as for full auto over shooting... as long as you don't un-necessarily overshoot people, what gun you use is less relevant, I've seen people over shoot on semi-auto plenty of days and people doing one taps where full auto's allowed... it's hard to judge just based on the object alone.

Higher RPS isn't just for spamming/high ROF, but along with it comes increased trigger response/spool up time etc - nice for CQB if you can't be bothered with HPA!

My mistake over the FPS , I read it as 1.5j NOT 1.05j which was my biggest concern , now that worry is right out the window .

Not accusing the chap of going to indulge in over kill (think it’s safe to say he’s been around way too long to worry about him doing that!) no only reason I questioned it is even just a very quick ’squeeze’ at 50 a sec is going too result in a lot of hits in a CQB site hence my comment about possibly annoyed players ?

Let me clear some things up for you:

Firstly, ss other's have mentioned, 1.05J = 337fps on a 0.2g bb, not 404fps, and it's doing 1.05J on 0.25g bbs.

Load it with 0.2g bbs and it actually chronos about 0.95J or 320fps. Load it with 0.28g bbs and it does 1.12J.

Joule creep is quite pronounced on something with a very short barrel like this - the upshot being I can use the same AEG in CQB and woodland by just changing the weight of bbs used and still stay under the power limits.

In CQB we're limited to semi only, and with a 50rps AEG, my semi auto trigger response is about 20ms, compared to a stock AEG at 15rps having a ~67ms trigger response. Doesn't sound like much, but when you're in CQB and someone runs past a doorway, that extra 50ms before the bb leaves the barrel is enough to make it impossible to hit them unless you fire before you see them. The ability to get off 2-3 shots for every 1 that the enemy can is also a plus.

In woodland, I actually use this as a secondary to a LMG because we have rules about semi-auto only inside buildings or bases, and my Stoner96 doesn't have a semi auto mode, so this little AR15 pulls double duty as a pistol substitute or a close-range defensive weapon in case I get bumped up close.

And lastly, I use it on semi 95% of the time. Even on the full auto setting, it's programmed to do a 3rnd burst, wait 500ms and then start full auto proper. That way, if someone's dug into very deep bush, I can still use a 3rnd burst to get to them. Full auto proper is reserved for suppressing (you'd be very surprised how few people want to move when they hear 50rps rattling off hard cover nearby) and the occasional "maybe if I stay really still and pretend I'm not hit they won't notice I'm cheating" Kevlar Kenny.

Nice ARP9 build. I’m thinking of doing something similar with an ARP9 or CA X9. How happy are you with the polymer body? I’ve been thinking of going with a slightly longer rail (6-7 inch). Did you play around with other rail options before settling on this setup?

 

Sorry just noticed this comment lol. Polymer body actually is stronger than I thought, plus it lends itself to the overall lightness of the gun. I did consider a longer rail originally, but I think I wanted to keep the same overall profile as the stock 5" rail, so I went with a similarly lengthed SLR rail.

I did actually accept my error and basically recanted all my concerns a few days ago , plus I did state that your a well known player in the uk Airsoft community and I very much doubted you’d have indulged in any ‘overkill’ just simply stated a small concern how many rounds could be delivered in a single burst . 

All good bud ?

All good - I didn't mean it to come across as aggressive, I honestly just wanted to detail why I would build a 50rps AEG and optimise it for CQB.

C&C Tac came out with the Wilcox riser in Tan (https://shop.jkarmy.com/c-c-410-riser-mount-low-profile-rail-and-front-sight-mount-set-for-airsoft-20mm-rail-tan-cag-style.html) (unfortunately no flip mount D:) so my CAG HK416 is nearly finished.  The other HK416 with a black receiver was supposed to be a WIP for the pre-2016 CAG HK416s until I realised they used the gen1 version of the Geissele SMR rail without the 45 degree QD mounts, and nobody cloned that for airsoft (and its pretty much unicorn for real steel anyway) so I think I'll get the black receiver Cerakoted to the "tanodized" colour and turn it into another Tan CAG HK416.  

 

The flash hider on the black receiver HK416 is also timed incorrectly....because it's not the correct flash hider.  I've got a SFCT WarComp on it right now, but sooner or later I'll be replacing it with a standard SFCT flash hider.  Both 416 uppers use a HAO rail so I've got two different light/laser setups that I can swap to whenever I want....but the one with the M600C on the top 45 degree slots work better for an ambi setup with the HK416 Tan pistol grip vs the one with the dual switch and the surefire at the bottom 45 degree slot.  I think I'll stick with the config in the last picture since the Sierra Precision grip on the 416 lower works with the dual switch rail setup.

 

The KAC upper on the 416 lower's supposed to be a Jason Falla inspired SR16....unfortunately the SR16 lower and gearbox are not completed yet so it's a frankengun right now.

Still doing some tweaks and fine tuning, but here is my mostly finished WE base Prime/Iron Airsoft Remington R5.

cc4COKr.jpg

T3sl4A1.jpg

Upper is an Iron Airsoft WA based R5 set modified to fit the WE internals, the entire hopup collar assembly needed to be redesigned and 3D printed, getting them machined now.

Lower is #10 out of the 100 MPL lowers Prime made for the WE system, only took a small bit of milking to fit the upper properly.

 

Full parts list here:

Upper:
* Iron Airsoft R5 upper receiver (Cerekoted in Patriot Brown (needs to be redone sometime soon))

*3D made angled grip, there surprisingly aren’t many Cadex attachment pieces on the market. Might redesign to make it more ergonomic.

Lower:
*Prime WE Magpul Lower (Cerekoted in Patriot Brown (needs to be redone sometime soon))
*Stock WE trigger assembly (Wii Tech may be making WE parts, I’ll probably move to them if they do)
*Angry Gun anti rotation pins
*V7 ambi short 57-90 degree selector (currently at the 90 degree position)(Locked to semi only)
*V7 magazine catch
*V7 body pins
*Daniel Defense buffer tube
