Has anyone used/owned a Dynatex timed/delay BFG? Are they any good and is the S.W.A.T VFG better at all? Thanks.

Six of one half a dozen of the other, Dynatex stopped producing for a while and SWAT used the same design for the VTG. They're effectively the same product.

Ive had a Dynatec for years. Its pretty much flawless. The delay is around 3secs. Ive heard the by leaving it compressed its possible to make it longer, but i like having a short timer on it.

They can be fiddly to reload. Definately not something that can be done quickly.

(Unscrew cap; pop out the old shell; use a tool to re-set the firing pin; hold the spoon in place while re-inserting the pin; "oh bugger, where did i put the pin"; new shell; screw cap back on).

There are some multi-shot impact ones that are (allegedly) more user friendly.

But, as with anything, its preference.

Ive had my Dynatec around 10yrs and will likely not go any other way.

Has anyone used the GHK G5 1J nozzle? People say it can be unreliable. How far off 1J could it go?

 
it all depends on your barrel length and bore. If you fit a carbine kit then the fps will increase, as would it if you fitted the DMR kit. If you want to set the fps reliably then you'd need an NPAS I believe.

When I had my G5 on the standard length it was always under 350fps even in summer. I converted it to HPA and played with different barrel lengths and bores along with the various nozzles and they can make a huge difference even with a fixed PSI from the bottle, I was actually able to drop my PSI requirement down to half what it was in my first set up by changing the nozzle for the hi-flow one so going the other way will make a difference but will massively depend on your set up.

Thanks. I already looked there, but it doesn't show in my browser... I guess that's probably because I don't have a mail client. I never tried to right click the link - not tech savvy enough for that. :P

I watched Aliens at the weekend, so I now naturally want to buy a Snow Wolf M41a Pulse Rifle.

They seem to have two versions though which I cannot find the differences between. Looked high and low. They even have identical descriptions

One is more money, so.... better build quality..?

One is here:

The other here:

One is green, the other is not, I guess no one wants a tan one, can't recall a tan one in the franchise.

the actual screen used ones were painted in "brown bess" as that showed up in the film as the dark green we all know and love, go for the green if you want screen accurate, brown if you want what they actually made.

and I also think that the more expensive one had a better gearbox and cyclable UGL (not functional though)

I wouldn't use aluminium BBs as they can damage your inner barrel.

You might also be better off ordering these directly off Begadi by the way.

Fair enough then i will just buy geoffs lol i thought it would be cool but if it can ruin the gun not worth it.

 
Save your money and buy Visionking. Their enty level scopes are only £40 on DHGate.

 
It has a low FoV and doesn't state the eye relief (which usually means it's naff). I'd imagine the picture won't be the clearest too.

It's not a case of me knowing all the brands and rebrands and knowing what specifically to avoid, but you get what you pay for with tubular optics as a rule. The only people I ever see recommending cheapo ones are those who've never looked down something like a Visionking (who make - relatively speaking - very cheap, yet quite clear and robust optics).

Edit

Here: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/visionking-3-9x40-rifle-scope-black-matte/387310777.html

Includes shipping, is variable between 3x to 9x, has a good FoV and good quality glass.

Edit 2

As an aside, I should say that - if it bothers you - a rifle scope on something like the G5 almost always looks a bit naff after a while. A lot of people go for the variable short dots that Visionking do as they're quite useful up close, have a clear, illuminated reticule and also go up to 5x for spotting.

I wouldn't call that naff...

Anyway, I'll give it a look. But I don't really want to spend a ton on a scope is all. People use the Richter Optik for air-rifle shooting, so it must be okay.
