OriginUK Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 Your turning your GHK into a HPA rig or something?... minus man points for that Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 LOL no way, Devilhunter's mod is to allow CO2 mags to be charged with liquid CO2 from a paintball tank (or pretty much any source of CO2, provided it's bigger than a 12g), it works with GHK CO2 magazines because it still has the fill valve hole drilled and tapped (except plugged with a screw), so when one replaces that with the correct fill valve, with a CO2 capsule still inside the magazine, you can charge it like you would with green gas, but not green gas, except completely winter proof without the awkwardness of using only capsules where you end up deciding whether to waste a potentially still good capsule or to risk running out of gas mid game as you could juice it inbetween rounds / at spawn.

Stuey Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Ah so the new CO2 mags still have that same setup? I was wondering that myself - do let us know how you get on with that, I'd very interesting in the GHK M4 if it's successful. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Okay, 10 shots chrono of CO2 magazine, all consistently between 298 - 305 with 0.25 with the 1J bolt, essentially no increase over green gas, but with a sharper kick, and louder. *man I love this gun, if the CO2 mod works without a blip, I'm struggling to see myself using an AEG again even in the winter.

OriginUK Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Can't wait to get mine. I'll really put it through some testing though, vs my other GBBRs to see how much of an improvement it really is. Link to post Share on other sites
TB-Stalker Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Any update on different trades/blank models being available? Link to post Share on other sites
steinarsen44 Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Tried to dissassemble the nozzle today. Didnt go to well, i cant for the life of me figure out how to the two halfs to split. Also the nozzle spring is annoying. The pin that holds the spring on the fake firing pin is really tight. I deformed the fake firing pin trying to get it out. Everything else dissassembles nice though. Assembly is also nice, except for the auto sear of course, *fruitcage* auto sears.

blobface Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Yeah, I tried the nozzle as well, just couldn't do it, I suspect they glued it? That's why I just gave up trying to mod it and bought a 1J nozzle. I also tried to get that pin off the fake firing pin in order to re-attached that nozzle return springs, like yours, it didn't go well, so I gave up trying to remove the cap from the spring and used a hex key to push the end of the spring into the nozzle until I can see that it has gone pass the hole, then inserted something to hold it in place before tapping the pin back on.

OriginUK Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 How is the quality of the steel internals? I noticed the steel bolt is less than $40 for a new one. For that you might as well have a second BCG setup ready to go Link to post Share on other sites
L2E Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 GHK uses glue to attach the two nozzle pieces together just like they do for the AK. I destroyed two AK nozzles attempting to get them apart... Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Is the receiver a custom spec or Prime/Ino compatible? Link to post Share on other sites
L2E Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Prime/INO/VT upper will not fit on the GHK lower without either: 1, Removing material evenly from both sides of the uppers rear lug or 2. Removing material evenly in the lower where the uppers lug sits Upper threads are slightly too high compared to real AR15 spec. About 20 minutes with a dye to chase the threads did the trick.

hitmanNo2 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Hmm. Not too bad then. Looks like a source of cheap Prime spec receivers then. Have you put that extended rail on your HK417 yet? I'm looking forward to seeing that beast. Link to post Share on other sites
Finbarqs Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 took mine to a game with the 1J bolt. No hiccups. Worked perfectly, besides the cheaters. I don't think anybody experienced any failures yet on their gun.. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 I thought I did at one point actually, after panicking for a while I realised I installed the nozzle stop on the bolt the wrong way around... lol Link to post Share on other sites
steinarsen44 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 After re assembly I get some pin walking on the hammer pin, nothing annoying, i just added a drop of glue on the end.Anyways, is anything supposed to hold the hammer pin in place? It has two notches but i cant figure out what is supposed to go in them. I thought maybe the hammer spring legs but couldnt get that working Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Prime/INO/VT upper will not fit on the GHK lower Hmm. Not too bad then. Looks like a source of cheap Prime spec receivers then. Er - sorry, not sure you've reached the right conclusion there hitman. It's a shame that the receiver isn't RS compatible; that would be nice.

OriginUK Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 The ghk is a tiny bit smaller from what I understand. Maybe they will fit with slight modification? Link to post Share on other sites
L2E Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Hmm. Not too bad then. Looks like a source of cheap Prime spec receivers then. Have you put that extended rail on your HK417 yet? I'm looking forward to seeing that beast. Since I wasn't able to get the upper to seat in my GHK lower, I am not sure if it will fit even after thinning the rear lug on an 1:1 upper. I didn't take any actual measurements so I don't know either way. Not yet. My plan was to install it over the weekend but my wife had other plans for me... Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted September 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Er - sorry, not sure you've reached the right conclusion there hitman. It's a shame that the receiver isn't RS compatible; that would be nice. I was basing my conclusion on the basis the mods in bold would work. I have done it before on other receivers and had success but perhaps that might not work now looking at L2E's latest post. Prime/INO/VT upper will not fit on the GHK lower without either: 1, Removing material evenly from both sides of the uppers rear lug or 2.

L2E Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 My mistake. I meant to include a blurb that said even if you remove the material it still may not fit properly. The length might be off, the curve of the lower might be off, the ID might be off just enough to cause some cycling issues, etc. The only way to know for sure it to get an extra upper from Samoon and start removing material and test fitting in a INO/Prime/VT lower.

Roland1014 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Is there any possibility of GHK fixing the upper/charging handle/threading/hopup issues in the next batch? Should we bombard their Facebook with polite requests? I for one am not a fan of the Navy seals trades. I'd rather have a blank lower. Link to post Share on other sites
Finbarqs Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 i'm sure it also helps out with the importing the product into the US with minimal issues. Link to post Share on other sites
steinarsen44 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 This thread has been awfully quiet, guess thats a good sign? I have yet to see people posting about issues with this GBBR. I have had no issues yet and ive been putting around 9k through it in a bit over a month. Its holding up like a champ. Ive put in a stronger recoil spring, maple leaf bucking, prometheus barrel and some anti rotation links. Other that that completely stock. Its not like the parts ive put in is putting any less stress on the internals either... Link to post Share on other sites
Finbarqs Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 yup, mine is rocking like a champ: vipertech recoil spring so far.... Link to post Share on other sites
