Wild_XIII Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 The fact there's a nice receiver on the market for it makes me want one even more now! I can't stand the current trades on it. Link to post Share on other sites

Zereck Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 I just realized they give you the front sight which isn't even compatible with the handguard they added but they don't include the rear sight which can go on the rail... Link to post Share on other sites
DrAlexanderTobacco Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 I just realized they give you the front sight which isn't even compatible with the handguard they added but they don't include the rear sight which can go on the rail... Unless I'm missing it, I can't see a front sight at all! Link to post Share on other sites
Zereck Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 The front sight is on the included list(M4-02). They also include the original handguard. So I don't know why exactly the only 2 external they don't supply are the pistol grip and rear sight. Link to post Share on other sites
L2E Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Just got my forged set in and only had a few minutes to open and compare before heading out to a family event. So far: 1. Upper receiver threads are AR15 spec, NOT AEG spec...excellent! 2. Buffer tube threads are still AR15 spec...still good. 3. Trigger guard holes line up with trigger guards, which is good b/c the WE forged lower's holes were too close together requiring trigger guard surgery...excellent! 4. Judging with just my eye next to GHK upper, the length of the uppers are the same...meh. 5. GHK upper will not fit RAT lower or vise versa without two modifications (bolt catch/firing pin assembly clearance cut on upper and rear lug modification)...disappointed. Fit and finish look great...that's all I got for now. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 That all fits in with what we know about this being a repurposed WE-specification forging, correct? I didn't think the GHK receivers would fit the RA-Tech receivers; I bet WE ones will, though. Link to post Share on other sites
L2E Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Yes, but at least they fixed the trigger guard issue. Link to post Share on other sites

thatguy404 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 What's the issue with that Blobface?I have the WE AAC300 kit and i'm suitably impressed. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Oh no there's nothing wrong with the AAC300, it's gorgeously built and fairly priced. I'm just baffled by some of their choice of what to include and what to exclude in their challenge kits, they exclude bits which won't help you build a functioning gun if you don't have a donor gun, and include bits that if you do have a donor gun, will end up having duplicate of...

Honzo Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 So i got one of the recoil kits from samoon that has a stiffer spring and a heavier weight The recoil is nice, response is snappy, follow-up shots quicker. However, I found that over time this comes at the expense of a more prone-to-fail bolt catch (even with shaving and modding) and lower gas efficiency. Anyone else put in the recoil kit and opted back to the original set up? Im debating... Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 I came back from a game just this Sunday with the Samoon spring and a heavier real steel recoil buffer, worked flawlessly, here's what I had to do. I had a problem with the solid heavier Samoon buffer in that I believe the extra force of the spring and the solid weight was causing bolt bounce, resulting in a secondary light strike (the bounce was enough to actually push the hammer back and let it go lightly) occasionally or double feed (return loads one BB, bolt bounce goes far back enough for the nozzle to clear the BB and load another). The real steel buffer worked I believe due to its inner weight that eliminated the bolt bounce (like lead shot "dead blow" mallets.) *just realised I didn't answer your question at all as you didn't experience those problem... well I'll leave it out there anyway My bolt catching is still holding okay at the moment despite the new weight / spring, but undoubtedly it would increase wear, but I've probably gone through a good 3000 rounds and it's holding okay..

Honzo Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 lol it's all good. That's interesting account and may be useful in the future. Yeah, sometimes (if the bolt decides to lock), inserting a fresh mag forces the bolt to slam foward. A muscle memory nightmare that i do not want to get myself accustomed to ...

renegadecow Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 That was happening to a friends GHK. Examining the bolt and catch they both started to look mangled but only half way their engagement height. True enough, the catch didn't go all the way up being pushed by an empty mag's follower. The mangled parts weren't so much as chewed but extruded outwards so I carefully tapped the parts back to form with a hammer and finished lightly with a file. I then glued a 1.5mm thick spacer (used metal but any stiff material will do) underneath the bolt catch as is commonly done on WEs so that the mag will push it up higher. True enough, the catch engages fully and with an increased surface area of the two parts coming together, wear is mitigated. Link to post Share on other sites

Jack90Davidson Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 What weight of bb do people recommend using for outdoor woodland games with the 1j nozzle fitted? Will 0.28g be sufficient or should i be going heavier ? Link to post Share on other sites
BioRage Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 What weight of bb do people recommend using for outdoor woodland games with the 1j nozzle fitted? Will 0.28g be sufficient or should i be going heavier ? For me personally, I would start from left to right on your budget.. .3-.32 with maple leaf diamond rubber, 70 degree, inner barrel choice would be a Prometheus EG 6.03 inner barrel.

Jack90Davidson Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 Budget isn't an issue. The internals are standard at the minute, so i wasn't sure which was the best weight to go for! I'll order a batch of different weights and see how i get on.. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
DrJones Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 Hi guys. I've had my ghk for a while now and I've been having an issue with range. I've tried .2, .25 and .3g BBs. Tried replacing the hop rubber with another stock rubber (mine looked like it had a tiny split in it which I thought might be the cause), cleaned and lubed with murder oil many times. I'm running on co2 mags with the 1j bolt from samoon. My range is limited to a Max range of 15-20m if I'm lucky and accuracy is almost non existent. Anyone got any suggestions? What kind of range are you guys getting? Thanks, Dan. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 Tell me you're not putting lubricant (especially silicone oil) anywhere near the inner barrel and or hop-up? Link to post Share on other sites
DrJones Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 Nah. Only on the metal parts where they rub together and a tiny drop on the hammer and springs. Link to post Share on other sites
Alias1983 Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 Mine is stock, 1j nozzle 10.5, I get 370fps at 1.3j at the max in a 70*f house. With .28 I get about 250 feet effective range. Link to post Share on other sites
BioRage Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 .3 and some good rubbers go a long way. Maple diamond 70 as I stated above. From there you will need to get a nice inner barrel like a Prometheus 6.03 EG. Link to post Share on other sites
