>>164965>Threadly TopicReusable vs disposable pyro, what's your preference?
>>164967neither. It's way too expensive for a couple of minutes of smoke. I'll let someone else waste their money on that shit
>>164970Maybe you shouldn't be playing airsoft.
why were fat british cunts getting so uppity last thread? You don't have real gun culture, fucking deal with it. There's a reason why you're coping with airsoft in here.
>>164981Typical euroswine seethe and cope
>>164967I have pic related if that counts, it's just a BB hose really. I also buy the occasional throwable pyro, I wouldn't buy the reusables as they get stolen way too often by gyppo cunts.
>>164967disposable. taginn RGD/M67 clones are best, but enola gaye pyro is alright, but far flimsier than tag grenades. ive had multiple EG grenades split in my nade pouches when my fat ass laid down on them. also taginns are EXTREMELY LOUD which is great if you like inducing tinnitus in yourself and everyone around you in a 50 metre radius>>164970poor detected, opinion rejected

>>164965Want to get an E&C XM177E2 but will probably have to sell an old Tokyo Marui MP5SD to make space. Worth it?
>>165015Just get the E&C AND keep the Tokyo Marui. Problem solved.
>>165017I don't have enough space. It's an older one with a plastic body so I'm not really inclined to keep it especially if there's a collector's market for old TM airsoft guns. I also modified the MP5 with some classic army parts since it came to me as a boneyard so it's actually an MP5SD3. I still have the original parts though.
>>165019Fuck it then, sell it. There are nicer MP5s out there if you get the itch for one later anyway.
>>165020Think I can get tree-fiddy for it, parts and all?
>>165015I have an E&C (>>164718). The fire selector markings are painted on, and the buffer tube always has a little wobble no matter how you tighten it due to their spring QD system which may or may not be on that gun (I have a 301 M4A1 model). Theres also no rollmark on some models like that one. Overtime the barrel may get wobbly, so you have to tighten the barrel nut. The charging handle linkage to the little cover that retracts to expose the hop up is very fragile so its not for pulling on hard. As you can see in that image, the buffer tube sling plate thing is weird and not clone correct. The takedown pins are actually threaded for hex screws. Overall metal quality is potmetal. Dunno about intenrals cause i dont care about that.But all of those things are perfectly fine for the price point. I would take the E&C over the TM
Does anyone know the screw size for cyma ak 040 for the fixed stock? I tried 6m but that didn't work.
>>165065Look at the diagram at the back of the instruction manual, it lists all screw sizes.
>>165065Fixed stock on a 040? Do you mean folding stock or 048?
>>165015>>165021>>165020>>165019>>165028This is it + extra parts.
>>165100Box is kind of rough. No website on it so for all I know it's super old, or """vintage""".
>>165101Don't have batteries with the right connector so I can't test, but I didn't fuck with the electronics.
>>165100>>165101>>165102I doubt your average airsofter would pay more than €100 for a second hand plastic MP5, but it looks like it may be 20 years old, so it might interest someone who collects older airsoft.
>>165107That's what I was going for. I found my old receipt for it where they said it was over 18 years old when I bought it 4 years ago. So it had to have been 2001 or earlier. Is there some forum for these people? Otherwise I was just going to sell it on r*ddit.
>>165028The one on sale everywhere rn has this rollmark, which isn't bad but not hyper-realistic either. At least the fire selector markings look like they're actually engraved on. Too bad you can't get the Colt trademarked ones due to licensing bullshit. Don't think customs will take importing something that looks like an ayylmao-15 receiver with all the scary markings well either...
>>165015>>165111Is it better than the CYMA CM.009E?
buy grenade launchers
>>165117Have done, it doesn't get used much and is quite heavy.
>>165124>quite heavyshrimply lift more friend
>>165102>big tamiyadisgusting>>165124you don't know the definition of heavy
>>165146I do, and that thing with a side mounted rail and scope is heavy, but I still carry it because I'm a big tough man.
I thought i bought a crap chink red dot, turns out i have retarded eyes.
>>165172and they'll only get worse
>>165172I also have retarded eyes, though glasses help mitigate starburstingPrism optics are your friend, or if you want to resolve the matter permanently, you could have professionals shine lasers in your eyes to unretard them
Is double bell P90 (BY-810GS) any good? What is the difference between BY-810GS and BY-810?
>>165236GS has a high speed motor otherwise they are the same. And yes it's very good. Has quick change spring, and the good Double Bell Airseal parts. Only thing i'd swap is a new hop rubber and nub barrel maybe if you can afford it.
>>165238Thanks anon. How does it perform with stock rubber and nub? I plan to get it as a gift for a friend who is just about to start playing airsoft, so I do not expect him to swap it out.
>>165239it won't be able to hop over .25's so if that's fine then just keep it stock.
Is hunting camo any good for asg? What are other budget options?
>>165253Depends. Is it made specifically for the environment you’re in?
it's over, I'm too fat and out of shape for airsoft.
>>165281how fat we talking?
>>165281You can do it tubby, go on a diet, do some exercise, it will make playing airsoft much more enjoyable when you can run for more than 3 minutes at a time. I believe in you.
>>165282okay maybe not that fat
>>164965Boys, newfag here. I couldnt find a proper answer on this question. How can i get my gbbr to shoot more precise and further out ? I got a>6,03mm tuning barrel>60° HopUp Bucking>70° HopUp TensionerWhich one of those variables decides what bb weight i can use and how far i can reach out? Thanks in advance
>>165281Just get an HPA setup and hose people who make fun of you, then tell them to git gud.
>>165322>Just get an HPA setupH-how did you know...??
Finally bucked up and dropped the cash on my first HPA setup. now I'm torn between throwing it into my KWA M4 or scrounging up a SCAR body to be a special little snowflake...
>>165336Did you buy and engine yet? Cause with the Scar you’d need a longer nozzle
>>164151>Probably something technical like insurance, or liquor license.according to the employees it's looking to be the city of Henderson having an issue with it, but nothing specific has been said yet. Employees, too, are getting anxious over it. I'm not going to be surprised in the slightest it has to do with anti-gunners working for the city being to blame. A couple that owned a firearms training class or whatever said they faced an uphill battle against anti-gun county officials trying to get the approval/permit to use land for an outdoor airsoft field
>>165345if I just raw dog it and increase the pressure will it cause damage? not saying I won't buy the nozzle, but if I get it later...
Having issues with my accuracy on my Blackout I bought a few months ago. For the first few fieldings it shot fine then it started bucking left or right like crazy. Is it worth it to send back to manufacturer (will have to go back over the border to CA, possibly take over a month) or just buy a new hop system? Are they hard to install? Also could this be caused by a scratched or imperfect inner barrel?
>>165384That’s not how it works. I can’t remember the scar required nozzle length but if the M4 is significantly shorter it might not even reach the feeding tube of the hop chamber and then how would it push bb’s out? Or if it only does it halfway it would still fire pretty shitty. You really need the proper nozzle for it.
>>165253Like >>165265 said it depends. Dedicated 3d hunting camo in the right environment will Trump just about anything. If you are in an area where the vegetation changes throughout the year, you need to match it or you will stand out.
>>165399Roger, it was worth a shot. gonna pick up a nozzle for the Masada anyways, not a big deal. thanks anon
>>165402>>165265Thanks anons. From what I looked, most of them would fit enviroment I play in at autumn or early spring. Would it work the same or better than for example olive drab in late spring/summer, or would I stick out worse than that?
>>165403what engine did you get.
>>165414kythera. didn't want to deal with batteries for a long while
>>165424Ah cool. If you tune it correctly you can get it really fast for a mechanical engine.
>>165411Hunting camo works fine. I live in a very green area and yes its a little brown when you are standing, but when you're kneeling or prone there's a lot of brown. And if you're not moving and semi-obscured by foilage you won't stick out. Really though if you are budget minded plenty of options, if you're near a military base then surplus stores sell uniforms for cheap. BDUs (there are summer and winter BDUs make sure you buy summer weight), multicam, MARPAT all work good. Don't get sucked into the autistic thing of finding "THE" perfect camo. If its green and brown, it's fine. I bought a number of clothing pieces off of aliexpress. Cheap chinese shit and it works fine in the woods. Various patterns.Get something breathable. A lot of hunting clothes are not super breathable. The sweat wicking tops are good, and the 3d leaf camo overtops are ok, but I've yet to find hunting camo pants as thin and light to move in as BDU or multicam pants. Half the people playing wear solid black or random streetclothes, so literally any camo is superior.
>>164967I fucking miss taginn, i hope they can find some way to get the atf to approve them again like working with FPC. I know it’s cope tho
>>165287 Your first mistake was buying a gbbr
>>165470HPA and AEGs are SOVLless
So my parts came in for my cyma ak. How hard is the hop up and nub to change out. How long does it usually take? Should i look into mosfet and gear upgrades for this cyma 040j or not? Is there a better swivel stock than the triangle ones?
>>165509Nothing too complicated. Could get it done in 15 mins. Tap out a pin. Unscrew some philips screws. Find a torx or hex key small enough to remove the screw securing the barrel.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruWEOi5V6RQ
>>165509>How long does it usually take?Once you know how to do it you can do it in like 5 minutes.>Should i look into mosfet and gear upgrades for this cyma 040j or not?If your AEG is new you can go with the default trigger unit for decent while, even when running 11.1 LiPo. After some time your trigger unit connectors might get burned/caked to the point of not properly connecting anymore when using 11.1s, meaning they won't trigger consistently. By this point you should either replace it with an optical mosfet or put in a new trigger unit and a mosfet, meaning that the charge isn't going through said connectors anymore. Performance-wise a mosfet generally increases the trigger response a bit, nothing too spectacular though.Gears you do not really need to bother with in the new cymas unless you are building a hi-torque 45 RPS beast with a strong spring inside doing 1.6j, but at that point you would also need to replace the piston and many other parts. If you wanna increase ROF though you could look into 16:1 gears or with a hi-torque-motor even 13:1 gears.
god I hate AEGs.

>>165575>>165606bruh cmon you gotta put a little more effort in your baitt. hpa/aap enjoyer
Are digital night vision goggles worth it? I'm too poor for the real thing but they seem neat to use at night.
>>165470That doesnt answer my question senpai. Besides i already got a gucci aeg, with the mosfet and etu and all that cool shit and i still like to have a bolt i need to cock back you know. Its all about the dakka for me, if it dont feel right in the mind it dont perform right in the field if you feel me
>>165623Nope
>>165632>if it dont feel right in the mind it dont perform right in the field if you feel meThen have fun feeling right in the mind while your GBBR is still performing like ass in the field. GBB and precision generally isn't really a thing that goes together unless you enter price ranges that would offer you HPA at that point. Since every shot you take there is differences in pressure due to a magnitude of factors that impact said pressure. Oh and do not even think about firing full auto unless you do not mind the inconsistency and looming possibility of your mag just completely emptying itself. So either go the full idc route and just play GBBR for the feeling of it because it is based or throw out any dreams of some AEG/HPA-esque precision.
>>165623if you're too poor for the real thing then just don't even fucking consider it. Don't waste your money for shit you'll use once or twice in your life.
>>165637That’s why you HPA GBBR. You get the fun of GBBR and with the consistency of HPA
>>165685But at this point you got the worst of both worlds. You pay crazy sums of money for GBB mags that hold hardly any BBs and you still need a HPA engine and rig that costs a lot, on top of that you have to take out and put the HPA hose into the mag every time you reload. Before that I would look into HPAing something with one of those Daytona kits that iirc take AEG bodies and mags but still add recoil like it is a GBB.https://youtube.com/KPclZ3DYa7c?si=zeaqC3O8mNpSb7b_
>>165692You don’t need a engine? For a GBBR you either tap the mags or run a adapter. You do need the whole tank, regulator and hose package tho but yea. I use adapters instead because It’s cheaper than GBBR mags + you don’t need to unplug to swap mags. Like this https://airtac.me/products/glock-aap-to-mp5-hpa-adapterYou can also get something a bit more incognito and get a adapter where you use shotgun shells so you don’t have anything sticking out of the bottom.
>GBB mags that hold hardly any BBs 40 is the absolute maximum you should need in one mag. let me guess, you need more?
>>165694There is also Tippmann where you got the tank in the stock and it uses AEG mags + you have the recoil
>>164569correct fittings finally came in today. This is just a basic function check with everything press fit and using teflon tape.https://files.catbox.moe/39elkl.mp4>>164967Disposable, its a pain in the ass to find grenades after a game, people steal them, and you have to worry about nailing someone with them due to the weight.

And yes it’s an AAP-01
>>165870AAPchads own this dogshit general
>>165870why not just get an mp7 instead of an aap chassis at this rate
>>165881because the AAP is a better performer than any gbb MP7
>>165882i see. sry im a mealfatty, so i cant say that i like it desu. but you do you
>>165883nta but at least the AAP01 functions more like a real gun compared to fucking aegs.

Anyways that stock looks really really good on that gun, ties together that unconventional aesthetic, great now my dick hard
>>165908that is me and i didn't print this it's the CTM AP-7 kit. I had the Charlie kit from cults but it was so annoying to disassemble i just didn't bother with it. The CTM one is much better designed. Takes like 2 minutes to take apart + the lower can be removed without any tools so you can adjust hop up easy
Anyone tried putting a real spring and buffer in a Golden Eagle M4? Wondering if my gun will self-destruct.
>>165870Get rid of the HPgAy adapter
>>165959From what I can gather, Golden Eagle ARs are designed to maximize what's possible with the limitations of the more budget-friendly materials worked with; even Viper-Techs don't run well when you shove real buffers/springs into them, IIRC Real Fake Guns tried that one when he converted an M16A1 lower to VT and it didn't work out all that wellSpeaking of that whole performance thing, how's yours been serving you? The things seem interesting, but there isn't all that much info out there beyond a GBBR guy on Youtube who made the first part of his review and intends to get back to it after a year or so of using one IIRC
>>165961No
>>165870>whore exposing herself>waifu materialretard weeb
>>165963I don't have enough experience in bbwars to give you anything to run on. I can say the gun rarely double feeds outside of user induced malfunctions. I don't even minmax the hop-up so I can't tell you the true distance it can shoot. For the price it has served me well, with no upgrades, on outside fields. The recoil felt is great but I've tried AKs from a friend (GHK AKM, GHK AK74) and the bamboo M4 gets absolutely mogged.
>>165963>>165959from what i've heard, a good solution to fix bolt bounce is to use a H2 carbine buffer on rifles that can accept an RS buffer

the urge to buy Northeast UZI keeps rising
>>166061Bro i feel you on that one, the uzi is a timeless peace of ass we all want to slam, whether that be sneaking it when the neighbours dont watch or loud and proud, everybody wants a peace, just like every mf into guns would fuck with a mac 11 given the chance to. I feel like just up and buying a fucking bizon all of a sudden. I never even liked the gun, but somehow remembering cs go and watching a couple of real steel vids on the thing made me moist for that particular peace of solid sturdy dakka. Problem is the only retailer around, that carries it doesnt have em in stock (iirc its the pps brand version). If there were any available id slam dunk those 230€ into the money hole in a heartbeat>best girl related

I'm torn, I wanna buy some nades cause they look fun but I know it's kinda retarded when my group's rules mean I can use use anything I want as a grenade. To the point I could probably spraypaint a coke can bright yellow and write "BOOM!" on the side of it.

>>166182Why did they include the spring for the back of the nozzle only for the CO2 version with the steel bolt?

must be a pretty sad life if you spend all day complaining about the way others play airsoft
>>166370It's all tongue in cheek, except for the couple of tards who run with every ball that is thrown to them.
>>166371i just don't get it. Like for milsims yea i understand that there are rules for what you can wear and the gear you bring, but getting upset about what people use for a open sunday skirmish? That's just sad lol
>>166359>have you ever seen an hpaFAG do an actual impression kit Yes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK0hNpw44xA
>>166374and I've got a similar kit going, got the exact same helmet visor (it sucks, settled with a Paulson DK7 visor instead), and ranger green UF pro.
>Have everything I want on my m4 except for a grip.>Have a decent pistol now that the guys at my local store informed me I'm retarded and how to fix it.Wondering what to get for my third gun. I was thinking either a submachine gun or a sniper rifle. With me leaning towards a sniper because the fields my group plays at doesn't have a whole lot of confined spaces I can't probably clear with a handgun and/or grenade. But on the other hand there's plenty of good spots to snipe from.
>>166377just be aware you don't buy snipers you build them, and it's gonna cost you
>>166379Shit really? There were a couple for sale in my groups discord and I was thinking of grabbing one.
>>166380the closest you get to a finished sniper is either a novshit or a Silverback. What most people do is buy a cheap JG Bar 10 and upgrade it themselves
>Buy a bunch of upgrades for gearbox>Commission local tech to do the upgrades>Tell him to use bushings and that I'll pay for them>Tells me he'll give me bearings instead for free>Month later, use gun for the first time in a game>One of the bearings explodes causing some of the steel balls to get stuck between the gears, breaking off some teethAnd that my friends is why you don't trust the Chinese, and to do your own teching.
>>166381Shit. From what I understand non second hand novritsch is stupidly expensive but how's Silverback? I'm not sure I'm competent enough to upgrade a gun outside of attachments.
Been wanting an LMG and was looking at the LCT RPK-16. Anyone have experience with this? And before you ask, no, I'm not doing a Killa cosplay. I just like the gun and someone gave me a Wartech PC so I want to start a commie setup.
>>166392A tech saying he’s gonna use bearing should have been an immediate red flag lmao
>>166398I assumed he knew what he was doing because he does have a good rep and track record. I didn't expect the bearing to fail this fast though. It's a high ROF setup so I kind of understood why bearings would be a good idea, even though I never believed bearings are justified regardless.
Question: how old is everyone here? I have been dying to play at a legit field since elementary school and now am 25 and some fields popped up. I’m trying to get the guys to go to a zombies game in Virginia in October but no one seems down sadly
>>16640428
>>16640422
>>16640424, started two years ago after my friends i know since middle school got me into, which probably prevented me from getting discouraged by spergs playing it.
>>16640420. I started playing right at the beginning of summer and I've been having fun.
>>166392I installed some bearings in a Cyma AK74, it was perfectly shimmed, so I thought adding bearings would just make everything even smoother and snappier. The bearings exploded after about 3 months.
>>16640442. Started in 99. Had to order off of Dentrinity back then.
>>16640420
>>16640424
>>166446What motor/gearset did you use? My 13:1 gears + warhead motor shreaded apart my bearings and I just do not see any reason to use bearings in any high torque/high speed build because you basically have a ticking time bomb in your hands.
>>166295>he jizzed all over it and used that as his paint maskDo AAP-01 users really?
>>166472SHS high torque, 13:1, M110 spring. It's been an absolute trooper for the last 7 years bar those exploding bearings.

Anyone knows if one can use a bicycle vent key to unscrew GBB magazine vents? Amazon has no airsoft vent keys for prime and I would need it rather quickly.
>>166615I don't think so. But before I got a gbb valve key I just used a small flat head, it can't grip both notches at the same time because the little nozzle in the middle doesn't depress far enough, but just slot it in to one side and be careful.
Jesus Christ....I'm almost 30 years old.
>>166653so?
>>16640426. Played a bit in middle school, only at legit fields a few times. Didn’t play for like 13 years then saw a great field in my area and have been back at it since April.Fucking love it.
>>16640428, used to play like 7-9 years ago and stopped and just recently picked up the hobby again. Crazy how at least here in Europe stuff transformed in regards of how cheap decent airsofts are these days. Although the amount of soulless hicuck operator larps increased by like 200%. Also my newest toy, an E&L essential 74u, excited to pimp that baby up to 1,3j.
>>166653>>166404I turn 30 next month, been playing since I was 16
>>166404>>166700Also the LARP games at Ballahack Tactical are fun. Drove up to Rev last year with some buddies and we all managed to get the survivor challenge coins. I think I actually like the LARP events more than anything else.
anons help me with ideas to style my vectorkinda bored with the current look
>>166749ah shit Ive already posted this I'm a fucking retard sorry
>>166749Get a longer foregrip? I never liked the shorty ones, preferred the Grip Pod beefy ones instead.
>>16640435, been playing since I was 15. Played on rogue fields for ages because that was all we had, then a variety of outdoor/MOUT/indoor fields.
>>166761>watch me blast this little piggy point blank with my six-gun
why do speedsofters live rent free in people's heads?
>>166838Probably because people associate them with their worst elements i.e. those obnoxious videos they make hosing people down.

Kinda wanna buy a shell shotgun even if they seem like a meme. That or an smg.
>>166876>18Jesus, I've been on 4chan since before you could walk
>>166935My suggestion is the Farsan Double barrel guns. Swit sells them, and there is a guy who has a conversion kit for sale on shapeways that will allow you to switch over to APS shells. Could combine that with the Explosive Enterprises shell mod.
>>166935https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4cL-JBL6OY

>>167096No hop upgrades? Did you have to sand down your fire pin lock? The last two I’ve got they been rubbing in the body so I had to file the side down a bit so it wouldn’t get stuck
>>167098No hop upgrades yet and I didn't have to make any modifications IIRC.
>>167085I guess but again, why should I play with them if they're just going to be hyper competitive arseholes that make it not fun
>pulled on charging handle too hard>spring stretched and plastic dust cover catch snappedAnyone know where I can get a replacement end piece?

>>167121You can’t expect people to play like you want at a open game. Unless they are cheating there’s nothing wrong with how they are playing. If the teams are unbalanced the field marshals should move people around. If you guys got stomped the entire day and the people responsible didn’t do anything about it’s a field issue not a people issue.

>>167178Yeah idk why they insist on making it out of such cheap, low quality plastic, then making it so hard to get spare parts for. You'd think a major US retailer like evike would offer it since it seems to break all the fucking time. Or hell, why hasn't anyone come up an improved design in the last decade or so?

>>164965is airsoft good for practicing reloads for real guns?
>>167331fuck no, why are you so stupid? just buy a fucking real gun if you need to practice reloading
>>167331I mean, yeah - even an AEG will give you the ability to practice simple mag changes, though GBBs are best for that purpose since they give you a fully realistic manual of arms
>>167335>>167331Ignore this retard, for the purposes of building muscle memory then yes.
>>167331There was that popular video a while back of that Japanese dude that practiced firearm training religiously with airsoft, and when they brought him to the USA and put a real AR in his hands, most of his skills transferred over.Won't happen for everyone tho. He was Asian, so he was already better than 80% of the population.
>>167336>>167337>>167341ok thanks, its practice for using an AR since getting one now is too expensive for me
>>167331I would say so, as long as you run something relatively clone correct. The important part about using airshit to train for me is using gear. It also helps me calibrate how I run my gear, cause it's the only place you get to really test it out. Finding out what mag pouches work for you to help with those reloads is what airshit does for me.
AEGbros, be honest. How overrated is precise shimming really? I know that some people are obsessing about getting some super quiet AEG setup but I personally have no issues with my AEG moaning a bit. How much of it really is just voodoo magic and how much is valid? Putting aside the possibility of overshimming.
>>167343Surely an AR15 is cheaper than a GBB M4
>>167392I don't believe it needs to be 100% precise, but I'm only comfortable when it's a decent fit. If it's too loose then the wear & tear will be worse.
>>167343>>167393Going to note that I've never owned a GBBR due to being stuck in leafland where they're usually absurdly expensive so I don't have the greatest perspective on this, butCheapest thing I've seen people actively recommend, the VFC 733, is about $370USD before shipping, probably mid-$400USD range shipped to North America, and generally has a reputation for being a solid gun for the moneyCheapest you can get (keeping in mind the stated intent of simply learning to practice reloading an AR-15) are the Golden Eagle polymer-receiver M4s which can be coupon-coded down from $185 to ~$155USD on Evike during certain times of year IIRC, with a metal receiver set being available for them for $60USD (which can also be discounted with coupon codes) - they're definitely nowhere near as good as the VFC offering, and a reviewer's first impressions video states that it does feel a bit more toylike due to the polymer receivers lightening the weight significantly, but they're available domestically for very littleEither way, you're paying somewhere between $48-65 a magazine, with VFC's mags being cheaper on average and all around better AFAIK, so at a minimum I'd wager the GE option being $210 and the VFC option being $450-500 - I'm sure you could technically get an AR for around or a bit more than the latter of the two (pretty sure a complete PSA upper and lower combo can be had for around the price of the VFC with a mag or two if you get it at the right time), but sometimes you want something better and/or sometimes you just want an airsoft gun that you can practice handling with, plink around with at home, and also maybe shoot other people at a field with for the hell of it on a nice autumn afternoon
>>167430I am also a leaf but I nabbed an MWS a few months back when Trigger had them in stock. Wasn't cheap and each mag is stupid expensive, but I can vouch that it's a quality gun.
>>167433good choice
>>167343PSA ARs are cheaper then a GBB AR and similarly priced to anything that isn't a poverty tier AEG. . .
>>167451Arent they like 600$ now for a prebuilt psa now. Cheapest aeg that are recommended are in the 300$ range(low reliable modern pistol cost).
>>164965>buy me a fancy new full face mask>shits comfy af>it doesnt fog up>cant shoulder neither ak nor g36 with a raised red dot>mfw there are no stocks for sale that got that frenchie curveture for helmets anywhere i lookedIts just one of those days where you dont wanna wake up, everything is fucked and everybody sucks
>>167465What kind of mask do you got cause I can easily use my AK with my Dye mask?
>>167465Did you get a Dye? It's not great for aiming but I can usually aim through red dots on most guns, although just barely.
>>167492>>167493Nah fellas i did eyeball the premium stuff but atm im just too fucking broke for that. I got myself a Valken MI 7. Again shits comfy, but the chin protection protrudes too much for me to lay my cheek on the stock. Its ridiculous, i gotta tilt my ak good 10° or more to the left to get a sight picture, im using one of them og tube red dots with the raised mount and it still aint enough. Anyways id use a different stock no problem but there arent any around. I guess i am forced to play with the stock folded :(
>>167465Just put on more risers.
>>167495Ah yea that’s a paintball mask that’s probably why it sucks for it since you don’t really aim the same way with markers.
>>167492nice kit, tranny
do you paint your rifles/pistols?
>>167555No. Painting is cringe and brings the value of your replica down
one option is to throw a a 1913 adapter on your guns and use a gas mask drop stock like pic related. Other option is to just get different eye/face protection. If you want nice low profile mouth protection look up Delta Mike Face Pro.

>>16640418, started playing when i was 16. Fellas, I have a question: based on your interactions with the airsoft community and shit (on 4chan, on fields, on leddit, whatever) what's the most annoying subgroup of people? in my own experience, people who are into russian stuff are some of the biggest assholes i've ever had the displeasure of talking to. seems like the more into russian gear some guy is, more of a total dick he is.
>>167616Yeah sounds right. Some of the western LARPer8tors that take it way too seriously are pretty close too, especially the zoomer historian types. Most of it comes from the fact that they're insecure little shits that use a historical interest as a cover for their /pol/faggotry, which doesn't work anymore since it's so overdone. God help you when they age into the legal gun owner range...
>>167616>what's the most annoying subgroup of people?military rejects who use airsoft as their outlet, going to casual skirmish games and whining about how other people play
>>167616here in eastern eu ziggers are more covert and don't wear actual russian gear and camo because they'd get beat. Still pretty easy to identify.
>>167616>>167619Both western and Russian LARPers are the fucking worst. I don't care for speedsofting but they're a lot more chill to talk to and fun to hang out with than LARPers.
russian larpbros..... it's so over......
>>167556>he cares about monetary value and not the artistic value created by adding a unique show of creativity to something you ownshalom
>>167624>they're a lot more chill to talk to and fun to hang out withuntil you shoot them in a way that they dislike and they magdump you or just get into a fucking fistfight. fuck speedtrannies and fuck you
>>167644it's not about dressing up and LARPing as russians, i do that as well (barely, but i'll start building a proper kit eventually), it's just that most of the "russian airsoft" dudes that i talked to were elitist assholes who go on and on about "muh inaccurate kits" when nobody even mentioned accuracy of loadouts or whatever. most of them are also no fun retards who think they're hot shit for playing with plastic slinging toy gun and take shit way too seriously.
>>167648What other imaginary scenarios can you come up with
>>167661>imaginaryhttps://files.catbox.moe/a7hj6d.mp4
>>167664>idk wtf happened in the beginning >"i'm about to punch you in the fucking face">"do it pussy">shoots camera guy point blank>gets magdumpeddisconsidering the first second or two where idk what happened, can't really blame the cameraman lmao.
>>167667>can't really blame the cameraman lmao>some pimplefaced 16 year old tells you he's about to punch you>instead of ignoring some adderal addled retard's spergout, the solution is to escalate by going "do it pussy">he chooses to shoot you a few times with his hicapa>instead of reporting this to a marshal to get that kid taken off the site at least for the rest of the day (good sites would ban someone for months if not for life for something like this) while you have a recording of the incident, the solution is to commit (what is essentially) assault and get yourself banned toothis is your brain on speedtrannyalso>the fucking marshal of all people runs up to the magdumper to punch him in the face
>>167653>>167648>>167624>>167622Here in the US russiaboos were big into the whole muh traddy daddy putin savior of the hu-white rayyce shit even before the ukraine war started (as in the crimea part). They had a huge penchant for culture wars spergouts too. idk how it is in europe, but I imagine it's pretty much the same from my mercifully brief interactions with those cunts where they kept trying to scam me into selling my real gear to them for cheap.
yeah, speedchads live in milsinner heads rent fucking free. But we already knew this :\
>>167616Speedsofters, especially the kind that insist that even though you're both 15ft apart, every single shot of theirs hit you, but none of yours could ever have hit them. I've rarely seen one gracefully accept a draw, which is stupid as they can respawn in 5 mins.
>>167616Anyone who takes BB warz too seriously. You can find them in any group.
>>167616Back in Europe the wannabe Navy seals and Russian guys seemed like the biggest retards but then again I never encountered any speed trannies there. In Japan speed trannies are the only people I've had problems with since some believe they're invincible, overshoot and in general have no chill. WWII and Vietnam historical games have the most chill people since they're mainly playing to have fun, not necessarily to win.
>>167669>get punked>report it like a good boy instead of taking back the dignity fagboy tried to steal (and sucsesfully would have had the righteous man not stood up for himself)Desu honestly he did nothing wrong and i mean nothing. It was the referee who was a slimey spineless peace of shit and the little faggot with his friend who were all in the wrong. Id say this is as good a hill as they come. This my take, my man will regret the loss of player privileges of that field less than having his dignity stripped from him by lil cunt and and his accomplice. Sometimes its either doing the right thing and loose the pleasure or keep the pleasure that'll cost you dearly>tl;dr be butch not leatherman
>>167497At some point it becomes just no longer fun you know.>>167498Ill actually have to adjust my gear to use the mask :/ i guess folded stocks are back on the menu (my shoulders are super weak after having overtrained them a couple of years ago in the gym)
>>167539Thanks hunny boo boo ;)
>>167492unironically the only acceptable look for any self respecting airsofter.
>>167696>oh no! a teenager has shot me in anger with a toy gun after i escalated a situation with my poorly chosen language! this is surely a besmirchment of my honour!!! i must retaliate to retake my dignity!im guessing youre a similar age as the kids in the video, otherwise theres no fucking way you could hold such an opinion. in which case, you do you kid. that or youre a moron that never grew up and thinks that he needs to maintain his "dignity" by resorting to violence over petty disputes.
>>167646shit rattle can camo job isn't unique
>>167715Thank you for your input. Feel free to make your way back to your paintball field at your own leisure.
>>167555No, I weather them but I do not paint them. 9/10 times painted airshits looks like absolute ass anyway.>>167774Also this.

>>167775Did you have to slaughter a BDU by yourself or do they sell those helmet ghillies somewhere?
>>167926bought a repro specifically for this purpose. 4 times the price of a surplus BDU funnily enough
>>167926I slaughtered a BDU and I still feel dirty
>>167941Woodland BDUs are still fairly cheap, I could get a shirt for ~10$ if I wanted to. But seeing how they're almost approaching museum status I don't think I could do it with a clear conscience. Just look at Vietnam War era stuff now. I guess I'll just have to do as >>167939. Many of the cheap repros don't seem to be the right type of fabric though

Gents, riddle me this. I installed the same 13:1 gear set, same high torque motors, and same mosfets in these two AEGS which share the same type of modified v3 gearbox. However, the F2000 overspins and sometimes double fires when tested with the same battery as the AUG. Could it be that the cut off lever in the F2000 isn't moving freely enough?
>>168120Have you tried enabling Active breaking on the F2000?
>>168120Ok real talk, what the fuck is up with this, beautiful rifles btw i dig the minimalisticly modernized retro product you got there. But why the fuck do yiur rifles look as nice as they do. No matter what i fucking buy my guns never ever look guntuber real. Fuck me silly i just wqnt the shit to look authentic are there special brands i have to shop to get that bust right aug green or the just right gun black m4, fuuuuck. Only my cyma aks looks solid and passable although the black is still wrong. >the questionApologies frend i dont know a thing about gearboxes, i fixed up my type 3 and that was trial and error, a lot of it>MFW THEM FINE ASS RIFLES YOU GOT IN YOUR PNG
>>168120Nice AUG. That is all.
>>168123The MOSFET I've installed is super basic, doesn't have AB, plus that puts a lot of wear on the motor (though I installed a Warfet with AB on an L85 because the gearbox is fucky and always overspins by design). Also if the AUG doesn't overspin, the F2000 shouldn't either, their basically internally identical .>>168124The F2000 is just a cheapo CYMA, and the AUG is a cheapo JG. Nothing fancy.
>>168131You have to enable AB. I had the same issue with my Cybergun F2000. It wouldn’t stop overspinning without AB. What motor and spring do you have installed
>>168134I'm trying to avoid it, as I say the other v3 gearbox in the AUG was fine. I'll just open up the F2000 and have a look. The motor is an XT 22TPA high torque, and the spring is stock so M120?
>>168166Does it also overspin on a 7.4?
>>168120I was recently having the same problem on a V2 gearbox. Try these:>Increase spring strength>Short stroke sector gears, particularly if you need to reduce FPS due to the spring strength increase>Replace cutoff lever with a better one>Reduce piston weight (POM parts, swiss cheese)>Install a sector delayer chip (this just helps with feeding)If all else fails, try a 7.4 LiPO and see if you have the same issue. On your MOSFET, you might wanna play around with AB settings.
>>168169>>168177Thanks for the relies. Doesn't overspin on 7.4, but I like the trigger response on 11.1. MOSFET is very basic, so no AB. I think I'll just crack the gearbox open and have a look.
>>168194Getting a mosfet with AB would be the easiest way to (possibly) solve your problem. But it sounds like your main issue is spring strength and/or piston weight. If your spring guide has ball bearings in it already, you can take the ball bearings out from your piston. That usually is a big change.You ideally want to run M110 or higher with 13:1s and a high torque motor, M120+ if possible. The problem with spring upgrades is the FPS increase, so you will have to learn how to short stroke your sector gear with a dremel or file to compensate. Getting a shorter/wider inner barrel also helps.
>>168124Its the lighting. Youtubers and companies that work with guns do it too. the difference is the finish of the real guns are more noticeable regardless of lighting. If you took those in normal lighting it would be very obvious they are toys.
