screamin_weasel Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 talking about the sling situation, i use a UK GPMG sling on my ca249 mk2, got it cheap off the forum. works well, and is very grippy. got the nice quick release system at the back, which has only once come undone unexpectedly but to be honest i dont think i really need it. sometimes its more of a hinderence than anything. and its not THAT heavy once you get used to it. very old pic, before the ghetto boxmag mod, railed cover and elcan copy, and custom flashider. and dirt. but you can see the sling. its rubberside on one side like tyre tread for grip, and is seriously heavy duty. and im the only one thinks the Nam mag looks pukka as *fruitcage* ?? if only it could hold 1000 rnds lol Link to post Share on other sites
Gundrosen Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 can anyone here tell me how the feed tray cover locking buttons is held in place on the CA? I have all the parts, however I cannot figure out how to set it up... Pictures would be great. Link to post Share on other sites
Chrissyg Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Oh yeah mate, the VN mags look kick *albatross*. I used 3 VN mags and 3 standard hi caps for GZ and I ended up using the nam mags most subconciously. Link to post Share on other sites
BigTomO Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 What voltage battery were you using?? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 8.4v 4000mAH - all standard voltage just a higher cap (PS it ran all day on this battery - 13k rnds!) Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyMoFo Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 hi gus, well im getting to the stage with my CA249 MKII where its getting very beat up, the bipod isnt holding out so well, and its all rather scratched, so time for a new look when i can afford it! what i would like to know is several things about RIS rails, with the RIS that fits on the heat cover (the bit the MK1 doesnt have) do you have to take anything off? or does it just fit on as is? with the feed cover jobby, to get the RIS on there do you need to buy a whole new top, or can you just buy a RIS rail as i can see that you can take off the rear iron sight with hex screws.. cheers!

screamin_weasel Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 unless you ghetto bodge a rail tot he top cover, either with glue or your own screws, you will have to buy a railed cover like i did. and im glad i did now because with the weight that elcan is, i didn't want a rail bodged on my gun.

DirtyMoFo Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 lol okay mate, cheers, where in the uk can i pick one up? and are they expensive?.. cheers! also, do they have the rear irons on still? cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 the CA railed cover i got doesnt come with ANY furniture - you have to use the hinge, cocking mech, rear sights and the locking pins on the new rail. it wasn't cheap, even from HK im afraid.

Chrissyg Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 This thread has died somewhat Where are all you support gunners!!! Anywho, some new pics of my Mk1 with a boxmag that I borrowed from Jimmypie at Ultimate Wargames yesterday! Me firing my 400round burst at a bush, then realising that it was just the wind moving it...not someone there Unfortunately the person who took the pictures cant hold cameras still. Boxmags make great bipods.. Never used the actual bipod yesterday! And just one for looks, cos im a picture ######. Link to post Share on other sites

svenbodybuilder Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 well I just ordered $350 worth of internal upgrades so when I do (finaly) get to use the gun it will strike fear into the eyes of my enemys .The tech I talked to said it will be shooting at about 380fps with a very nice rof and reliably to boot .

Hellfire8 Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 just about to join the support role, friend of mine is selling his Top M60 seals, upgraded to (just above forum limits) 330-340ish i believe I've heard good and bad things bout the Top M60, I know it uses bellows n need replaced but I will get the cylender kit for her, anyway anyone got opinions on the M60 by top? Link to post Share on other sites
happy.al Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 I bought a Top M60 Vietnam Shorty from a team mate to see if I liked support gunning. The bellows had gone before I bought it and I decided to replace the whole lot with a cylinder upgrade. The upgrade was quite easy to do and all together took about an hour really taking my time and making sure that everything was correct. Since then I’ve not used any other gun. This gun rocks, the rate of fire is incredible. Last weekend we had some new players, after we played a game they were all over to what gun had been spitting BB’s at them at such a rate. It is a very social gun. Link to post Share on other sites
