kojak Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 It's 99.9% done now--the PRI Gas Buster for AEGs eludes me and of course I forgot the selector hole cover. I just noticed that this rifle has nine batteries! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 2 per electronic item and 1 for the actual motor? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
validtumoralarm Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) Very nicely done. The only issues I have with it are mostly personal preference. -VFG that far back is a pain if you use a thumb break grip -left side rail looks pretty bare without a cover That and the colors are all kinda funky, but mine's the same way so I can't really say anything about that. Looks sweet! Very accurate. I especially like the A1 grip. That looks so comfy and makes me jealous. Edited February 21, 2012 by validtumoralarm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 2 per electronic item and 1 for the actual motor? Pretty much; the PEQ-15 only takes one CR123 but there's a tiny lipo in the VFG for the Madbull tracer unit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johngol10 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Standard set-up for KAC blasters seems to be a T1, PEQ15, and KAC Handstop... Anyone run anything different? Trying to get ideas for a build. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grindstone Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 A build I just finished. Trying to get it as close to the real steel one I'm putting together for semi-training purposes. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7065/6904092111_59b057d7cd_b.jpg What's the rail on the middle rifle?

hwagan Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 What's the rail on the middle rifle? Troy TRX Extreme, looks like the 11 or 13" length. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grindstone Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Troy TRX Extreme, looks like the 11 or 13" length. I take it real? Or are there clones available? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) I take it real? Or are there clones available? There *have* been cheaper clones, but Madbull do them these days; http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=TRX Originally Dytac, and an ACM company called MIC did them - I picked up a 7.2" MIC one and it was a drop in fit on a G&P upper as well as being very nicely finished and made. Unfortunately, they dissapeared from Ehobby 2 weeks after I bought one Haven't seen one of the MB ones though, so can't comment on how good or not they are. *edit* Dunno if Animal's is real or a copy obviously, but it does look nice Edited February 21, 2012 by hwagan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grindstone Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Thanks for the info. I'm just looking at 12"+ rail options. The MB is a bit more than I'd like to spend on a rail, though. I might stick with my original plan on a 12" ACM Noveske. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bladerunner168 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Grindstone, I just installed the MB TRX 9" on my Avalon BCM4 and I must say it is a very good replica and unbelievably light for a metal rail. Having said I would never buy another MB front end again due to off spec rails, I'm quite chuffed with this purchase, just waiting for a 41B to come to finish it off, pics soon. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) This is probably my first ever moderately successful attempt at taking a relatively nice picture of something in the dark - G&P WOC now with added T-1. *edit* Also, if anyone's in the UK - The sights are £14.99 for the front and rear at Wolf in Black or Tan - For £15, there's just no reason not to buy a set. Really surprisingly nice replicas of ARMS 71's with trades and everything! Edited February 21, 2012 by hwagan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Isamu Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Hwagan, is that a G&P T1 replica? have you tested it in day light? how good is it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jrad51 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 If I recall a real Troy TRX rail isn't much more expensive than the Madbull Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leon Kennedy Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) If I recall a real Troy TRX rail isn't much more expensive than the Madbull About $20-$60 up. Really a better choice considering how shoddy some of the Madbulls are. Maybe I'm unlucky, but my DD Omega and DD Lite both had some really bad seams.

hwagan Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) Hwagan, is that a G&P T1 replica? have you tested it in day light? how good is it? Tis indeed dude - I in fact reviewed the first one I purchased a while ago, see here; http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/179613-the-gp-t-1-micro-aimpoint-replica/ I've had a fair few of them pass through my hands since they appeared and seen many more. They're fantastic to be honest. Holds zero and doesn't bat an eyelid at the kick of a WE G39 or a G&P WOC. Tough, excellent value for money, good battery life... I'd honestly say when it comes down to it, they're about the most sensible, practical sighting device an Airsofter can buy. Easily bright enough in daylight, dim enough to use in pitch black on the lowest setting... Can't really go on enough about how much I love these things. The only reason I ever sell them is because people buy them quickly and I have a habit of spending all my money before payday. *edit* Also, www.fire-support.co.uk are selling the very package I bought - G&P T1 on a QD high mount with a kill-flash and the standard rail mount for £54.

bladerunner168 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) onfire167, I like your rifle very, very much I have always wanted to build something very close to yours, a G&P Magpul tan receiver with a PWS MK110. Does it fit seamlessly? Edited February 21, 2012 by bladerunner168 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akiraspeedstar Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) I have a G&P micro t-1 and it's really good for indoors and overcast areas, horrible for bright sunlight. I can barely see the dot at all when I play in sunny areas. I ended up changing to a compm2 instead which works great, too bad cause the t1 looks great and it weighs nothing.

Bucko Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Fresh out of painting comes my WE Open Bolt M4 Recon rifle build! Not nearly complete yet (needs MIAD, PEQ box, MBUS sights, etc), but I think the paint came out nicely! Cheers! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks mate, I asked cause here in Spain bright sunny days are... well... VERY bright sunny days and very rare replicas can keep up. My G&P COMP2 replica does, but I think its mainly due to the killflash I added which gives a bit of shadow... will give a bit of thought and decide between the G&P pack and a clone with 11 intensity settings...

Roecar Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 My Noveske N4 PStar with three uppers. I got rid of all of my AEGs except for a KA Colt I won at Lion Claws: X as my back-up. This I've never done. I've built an SBR upper using old school tactical rails from the early 2000s, a Troy 7" MRF-CX... they sure don't make em like they used to. I've never used an SBR before, so far I like it A LOT! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 I have a G&P micro t-1 and it's really good for indoors and overcast areas, horrible for bright sunlight. I can barely see the dot at all when I play in sunny areas. I ended up changing to a compm2 instead which works great, too bad cause the t1 looks great and it weighs nothing. I must have had 6 or 7 of the things and they've all been plenty bright for your average sunny day in England. Which, saying that, isn't too sunny... Still, I can see the dot clearly when it's a cloud free sky in the midst of summer, and I often don't use the highest setting in such conditions, with or without a killflash. What kind of environment do you play in? I'm on a woodland field, so it's all grass and trees and the like reflecting light; Possibly the reason? I can imagine if you're playing in an area full of light concrete or sand it might not be as effective? Thanks mate, I asked cause here in Spain bright sunny days are... well... VERY bright sunny days and very rare replicas can keep up. My G&P COMP2 replica does, but I think its mainly due to the killflash I added which gives a bit of shadow... will give a bit of thought and decide between the G&P pack and a clone with 11 intensity settings... Thanks for your imput too, Akiraspeedster Decisions decisitions... I'll try and get a few pictures of the dot on a sunny day if I get the chance; It's *meant* to be quite sunny on Saturday so I'll give it a go then if it is. Still, I've never found it not bright enough on plenty of really sunny days. Although I can imagine in Spain, especially in a sandy or dry area, it's probably a fair bit brighter out than in the UK.

Isamu Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Thanks mate! To be honest Im looking for a good light optic for my light setup and the g&P package is very appealing due to the killflash for lens protection but the thought of it being too dim with 5 intensity positions made me doubt...
