renegadecow Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 You have to consider though that the trigger pack has a separate metal interior which is what holds everything under spring tension. The outer case just holds the inner case and transfer bar together. Not much stress going on there. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptCalvin Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 The outer case is made of some pretty cheap plastic though. I barely applied any force on the screws and it put hairline cracks around the screw holes. Though the cracks haven't developed beyond that point. The screws are now just loosely screwed in and held in place by loctite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Had no idea about that! Guess im not looking close enough! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptCalvin Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 So this is already out there: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Surprised WE themselves haven't released a red dot kit or something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 So this is already out there: One offs have popped up at Arms Cool as early as December. It's a commercially available one which eludes the manufacturers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptCalvin Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 The guy's page seems to be selling his/their projects including this one. Not sure if it's a one off or if he/they are making more. My Chinese reading skills are especially with traditional characters is pretty rusty so I'm not entirely sure what the story is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rusTORK Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) Hm, one more red dot version. He useing CA Upper, which is also metal. I am useing King Arms upper. CA uppers are great to make old replicas. Like Marui one, which have got HC-14-62 ring sight. P.S. I saw that man before, when he released L86 A2 LSW GBBR just after i assembled my version. =) Edited July 22, 2016 by rusTORK Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rusTORK Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 I was extreamly busy at work last few days, so late news (but still!) about my adapter for everyone who was interesting. Main and most important thing - price. It's damn high for such adapter at my opinion (receiver itself, side rails, flash hider and scope NOT included) - if order 5 adapters from factory - price will be ~$190 (per one adapter and shipping excluded), if order 10 adapters from factory - price will be ~$150 (same, one adapter and excluded shipping). That way part will be fully made by machine and painted in black. Let me know what do your think about it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptCalvin Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 I mean if we have more information about how it works we might be able to make a more informed opinion. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Equally don't want to go wrecking my GB-Tech RD Upper for something I know very little about! Agree. I have sent message to admins about where i may create such topic (which part of Arnie forum), post pictures, some tech specs e.t.c. When i find place i will start topic and post link here, so we can move there. And i hope my next weeked will be workfree! Edited July 26, 2016 by rusTORK 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blobface Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Don't remember reading anyone posting about the RA-Tech steel stop-on-empty lever thing, mine arrived today and installed it over my broken one, while I can't tell you whether it will eat up the cheese metal bolt soon, for once the tolerance was very good for an RA-Tech product, drop fits and swings freely under the spring's tension. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
machgo Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 I found the fit to be loose as there was no relief made to accommodate the fillet on the "axle" on the hop unit. This resulted in slop perpendicular to the axle in my case. Maybe they made some changes... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Ah, probably just usual RA-Tech QC then, mine was what they tried to make, but ended up making a few of what you got... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptCalvin Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Cheese metal bolt isn't the problem. There's quite a lot of material to wear on that. The problem (or potential problem) is the hop unit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Yep. All that rigidity and the energy of the bolt slamming forward is just transfered directly to the hop chamber. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Circlular holes always take the most slamming. Would be nice to know if ra-tech have released something that actually improves a gbb. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Well, will let everyone knows when my hop chamber explodes, but in the meantime, it's working, for now. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Precarious way of thinking! Especially when its hard if not impossible to get a spare hop chamber! On my phone, my spelling will suck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) All WE parts are pretty easy to get hold of, KIC can get any parts that's made in Taiwan for anything that's in production. Edited July 29, 2016 by blobface Quote Link to post Share on other sites
machgo Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 www.kyairsoft.com is reliable and reasonable. I have recently ordered a number of repair parts from them. They will break down a gun as well if necessary to provide parts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
