kinau Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 What did you use hot glue on? It looks like you used hot glue instead of solder. Say it isn't so!!!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> 'Course not - I'm bad at electricity, but not that bad I'm sure he used it just to support the wires and act as a cable strain relief. However, read my sig. Kinau, Did the packs turn to scrambled eggs before or after you put them in the gun? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They were used to support, and prevent any... 'electricity stuff' happening between the pack and metal barrel... The old pack got fried whilst charging The new (DIY) pack just heated up, a lot, while being used.

Do you really have to chop the thing the buffer tube slides on? If you do, is there enough left to sport a normal stock should you decide to switch? One last thing, the wires the G&P kit comes with...what are they? EDIT: Almost forgot, once it is installed, how is it? Edited May 9, 2007 by Sgt. Carter Link to post Share on other sites

EDIT: Almost forgot, once it is installed, how is it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes you do need to cut the back of the receiver stock tube down. You will also have to dremel it a little to make room for the wires to extend into the tube. As for whether or not it would work on a full stock after the modifications, that I'm not sure. Regarding the wires the C&P Crane stock come with, they're for you to change your gun to use Deans connectors instead of whatever connector your gun came with. Aside from being a better connector, it is also much smaller and consumes less space. Therefore giving the stock with the batteries installed enough internal space to collapse the stock.

Carter Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Oh ok, thank you. The wires, would I just have to go to my trigger assembly, cut out the old wires and souder(sp?) the new ones on? Link to post Share on other sites

trfo2o Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Maybe I'm behind times, but do you still have to replace a couple parts on the G&P ones? I don't remember exacetly what it was, but I thought that you had to replace like, the nozzle and the tappet plate as they were prone to breaking. Anyone care to clarify? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ya but think of how relatively cheap that is. If u search in the technical forums, you can find a lot of information about G&P's Link to post Share on other sites

MDK_Marshal Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Tasty, I want one of those for myself.... heard nothing but good things about them; IE, as good as, if not better than marui out of the box, and so on. Plus, I have a thing for full-size armalites... Link to post Share on other sites
razor_sharp Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 (edited) Got to love all these armalites. Heres my small contribution in the form of an ICS M4. Cheers, razor Edited May 9, 2007 by razor_sharp Link to post Share on other sites

Marine47 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 (edited) Plus, I have a thing for full-size armalites... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I concur...i think there's way too many armalites on this thread with retractable stocks and CQB front ends. I can't wait to post my m16, my front end should come tomorrow and I'm doing accuracy tests between my old 363mm with the new 455mm tightbores. shall I post results in here?

scooberoo Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 (edited) Maybe post it in tech section and make sure it follows the 1J limit rules. If fps is over 1J, do not post it (the results). Edited May 9, 2007 by scooberoo Link to post Share on other sites

H&K Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 My cheapo sort-of M733, though it is awaiting several new parts, so I really don't know what it will end up as... Apologies for the ###### photo...the decent digicam is downstairs and I really can't be bothered right now. The fonecam will have to do for the moment. Started off as an SRC M4, then I slowly added spare parts to it. Awaiting systema gearbox, hk416 lower, noveske flashider, miad pistol grip, high-speed motor and a ctr stock if the sopmod gets put on a 36c. Cheers. H&K Link to post Share on other sites

Will Pwr Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Awesome! Im building one almost like your setup...just a different flash-hider and motor JG M16, JBU Olympic Arms 3.75" FIRSH, 6" bbl, 6.03 tightbore, Element "Noveske" KX3 Firepig flash hider, G&P H&K 416 CQB stock, Systema High Speed motor. 327 FPS w/ 18 Rounds/Sec ktk_ace, best advice i can give on painting is to take EVERYTHING apart. I pulled everything off my recievers. Even the forward assist, selector switch and the little dummy indicator on the right side. Like CWB said, take your time, go slow. My AR took a good 6-8 coats depending on the part. Also, if your painting a plastic part use the Krylon Fusion Camo paints. It will work better than any other paint and it dries FAST. It also works realy well on the metal parts. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to post Share on other sites
