Richard Y Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Yes point but chrono rps before so you have a starting point. The xcortech is popular or nip round a mates with one. We know from reviews stock is about 11 - 12 so you will want to keep above that even with an upgraded spring. As a general guide. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pdubyuh Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 I got a DEVGRU 416 last week, not fired it yet but so far its pretty darn solid and the extra bits seem pretty good, cant wait to get out on sunday and give her a blast see how it compares to my other 2 recoil guns ( you could say i'm a convert lol ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honzo Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 lol anything +2 is a convert. I dont think i have any AEGs left in my arsenal. I converted all my models to their EBBR or gas counterpart. Too fun but my wallet has been suffering. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zereck Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 So anyone know or tried if the VFC IAR Front-End Kit can be installed on the Marui 416? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
druid799 Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 To be honest mate on past experience of TM and after service parts , I'd be very surprised if it fits with out some extreme modification if at all . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 after taking apart my 416 youd be supprised how close it is to the VFC one.. its standard hk416 barrel nut and mount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sacairsoftsn00py Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Pdubyuh...i was born the same day/month as you. Lol. I too got myself a 416 devgru. Currently have just one 8.4v tm battery. Need to take some measurements so I can maybe redo the connectors and use a 7.4v lipo.

Zereck Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Well today I tried my friend's 11.1v lipo and with that I get no semi-locks and crazy rof on auto, but Im afraid using it, especially without mosfet(BTW unscrewing the buffer pipe didn't help afterall).

Richard Y Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 just sounds like yours needs that extra current then. If something breaks you can always fit upgraded parts. run it on the 11.1v. ERGs have to run on 11.1v. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 chrono the rps on 11.1v and let us know, i think youll find the 400 fps spring is going to take a bit of the edge of the 11.1v Quote Link to post Share on other sites
point_7 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 little question, i have a prometheus stock terminal for the 416 but that small black piece with that little screw where is that for ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zereck Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 chrono the rps on 11.1v and let us know, i think youll find the 400 fps spring is going to take a bit of the edge of the 11.1v According to my UFC chrono its 25 rps on an 11.1v 20c lipo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blam360 Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 forgive me if im wrong, but (assuming you mosfet it) can next gen's run on 11.1v? I thought 11.1v made the ROF too quick for the blowback to handle? Ive finally gone through both this thread and the SOPMOD thread (damn that thread is huge) and I didn't come across anyone being able to raise ROF to 20+. Has anyone been able to upgrade their next gen to 25rps @ 1.3J while maintaining reliability? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pdubyuh Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I got to use my DEVGRU this sunday its awesome great range and accuracy (its a TM recoil now my 3rd I wasn't really expecting anything else!) and when I borrowed an 11.1V battery out in the field i was pleasantly surprised by the ROF especially when half the other team came round the corner at a bottleneck he he he!!!

christhesecond Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Can anyone recommend a motor with a bit more torque? I'm running a 25c 7.4 lipo currently and I'd like to up the rpm slightly without going to an 11.1. My plan was to wait for one of these spectre MOSFET thingys, shove an 11.1 in and use the fet to turn the rpm down to a reliable figure. Sadly it looks like I'll be waiting a few years yet for that. :s Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sacairsoftsn00py Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 I have 7 of the said pmags and use ksc/kwa .25g bbs. They feed flawlessly. On a side note... Battery upgrade. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sacairsoftsn00py Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 It was the casing off of the marui sopmod 8.4v battery. The lipo I used was a hair thicker than what the casing could fit so it bulges out a smidge. I didnt need to but I glued the shells some with some super glue. The photo was a quick pick. There are no other pics as I just wanted to Maybe when I make another one... I have the lipo on hand already and I should have the marui 8.4v sopmod battery in a couple of days. I'll probably wait a lil bit longer to put it together. I havent decided whether or not im making another lipo pack in the marui shell...or mod the new 8.4v sopmod back to a 9.6v. Change the bbs youre using..use a different brand of whatever weight you're using Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zereck Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 So I had issues with the bolt-stop on my 416 but it seemed I got it fixed and it worked for a while, however a few games ago it started acting up again by not stopping the gun from firing on full auto(it kept shooting on semi). So today I took apart my gun for inspection and I found no issue with the stop fire mechanism, still I put a shrink tube on both levers(the one that connects with the mag and the other rising the trigger contact). I also eliminated any side movement. I correctly put it back altogether and yet when I inserted an empty mag the gun kept shooting. However if I pushed the lever up with my finger it would work or sometimes with an empty mag if I kept pushing the bolt-catch's lower part. The mag can't really be the problem as they work just fine in my SCAR-L. At this point all I can think is putting more shrink tubes on the lever maybe that way it gets pushed up enough. Did anyone else ever had a similar problem? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zereck Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Well after putting on a few shrink tubes on the lever I still had problems(sometimes worked, sometimes not) so I took them off. I didn't took it apart, I just fingered(ok that sounds bad but basicly I just pushed the lever around with my finger) the lever and after a few attempts it now works right again.
