DeviantDragon Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Hmmmm how much I loved to read the 50 pages of this topic, just a few hours after I paid and ordered one of these. It's good to know it has problems... NOT! We'll see how it turns out. I should have known. I tested one from a team mate last week and it went auto on me. Oh well... Too late now. Even so, I feel this gun is well worth it's 400€ price tag. Will post some feedback on how it performs after a few games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morb Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Anyone know what type of cylinder this gun has ? According to the pictuers it's a 4/5 Hole Cylinder. According to this page http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/?filnavn=/a...randbarrels.htm I can put a Barrel Length of 364/460 mm Is this correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PartNinja Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Any of you guys who got the long versions, that swapped to the short want to sell their unused long barrel? I got the short version and put a moc suppressor on it and an AK lenght TB. Think I'd like the look of a regular barrel instead. PM here or email me at MAskaT31@hotmail.com.

morb Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) Anyone know what's the diameter of the stock inner barrel? Is it worth it putting a 6.03mm barrel? Edited February 24, 2008 by morb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan452 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) If your wondering how it looks with the short stock, here is my 416 Modify 7mm gearset Guarder SP110 Systema Tappet plate Systema Selector plate G&G low resistence wires Hummer EG1300 motor Shoots around 370 with a 9.6 with an awesome rate of fire.

Dock trinE Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Spartan, could you take a picture with just the normal rail mounted sights instead of the ACOG? Did you have to make any modifications to the stock tube to get the fixed stock to fit? And how long is the 416 stock? Is it the same length as the collapsible stock all the way collapsed, or is it somewhere in between? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan452 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 I no longer have the sights, but the short stock is all the same length as the collapsible stock collapsed, I had to cut down the stock tube and then I had to sand down the body a bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danke Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I had a used VFC 416 turn up in the mail last week. It has a G&P Crane stock with the battery wired to the rear. The battery appeared to be dead, and being in a very small town I had to send across the country for Deans connectors to wire it to the charger. That battery appears to be charged now, but when it is connected there is nothing, no click, no whirr, not a thing. It shows live on a tester and when hooked up to another gizmo that runs on 9V it provides power. I have more Deans on the way, so I can wire another battery up and in the meantime I don't want to start yanking stuff apart till I know what's gone on. The seller is sure that it was running when he shipped it, and he is talking to me about this. Anyone see this before? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Downtown_two Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Checked all the internal wiring? I thought I had a case of dead batteries but I later found the wire had become disconnected near the fuse. Worth a try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danke Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 When you pull the motor out and reconnect it spins. Step two is punching the pins out and seeing if the mechbox will turn over by hand I guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Danke Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Thanks, I popped the mechbox right out and it seems to be the source of woe. The guy that sold it to me said he'll cover the Dr fees so all I have to do is wait. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danke Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 It's come back to life, can't wait for the weekend. The Doc's comment was There was an issue with the cut off lever switch and replaced it with a King Arms brand, Re-lubed and fixed the shimming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sniperman15 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 (edited) Anyone know if there's any takedown guides out there? Tried searching here, and on Google, but no luck so far. I'm not sure if this is what you mean but I'll post it anyway. Once you take off the upper and stock it should look like this. Then take the bolt catch off, also if you have the stock gearbox there will be a sort of clamp holding the bolt catch, Simply push it down once you've remove the pin going through the bolt catch. Then remove Then get the mag catch off by pressing it in and rotating the opposite side counter clockwise to separate it. You should end up with these parts Then push this pin all the way out Then push this one out (note, it wont come out all the way just let it hang once its far enough out) Remove the baseplate of the grip and remove the motor, then remove the actual pistol grip by the (2) screws if its the stock one, this one had 4. Then this is what you should end up with. Also I forgot to add a picture of removing the screw that goes through the buffer tube. But If you have removed the buffer tube this wont be an issue. Hope that was what you wanted and it helps at least someone lol. BTW I apologize ahead of time for this not being extremely user friendly. Hopefully the pics will help, heh Edited April 18, 2008 by Sniperman15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PartNinja Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Has anyone installed a different hop-up unit in theirs yet? Not being able to put a guarder clear bucking in it is bothering me. Everything other than the stock one stretches or wont feed right. The only thing Ive gotten to work is a systema rubber which I have to trim a bit shorter for the C-clip to fit back on.

That would allow you to determine if there's an internal wiring problem, or something wrong with the specific battery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
