    THE TM MWS thread

    ^ This ? I had to take a file to mine and open up the barrel window as Dave suggests. Very easy to do. Just go slow and check the fit frequently.

    Nice! I love the GHK AK. It’s the most satisfying gun to shoot. Good work with the various steel upgrades. I have all the internal Hephaestus parts but none of them yet fitted (I figured I’d wait until something breaks then swap out all of the original parts in one go).

    Cheers bud. Yeah, you should be good once the barrel nut is tightened. The gap on mine is approx 1mm. I could probably get it sitting flush if I cranked the nut even further, but it’s fine as is (for reference a slight gap between rail and receiver is very common in real steel builds too).  ...

    I do love GBBRs ? Details of the M4 builds can be found in the MWS mega thread... Same AK as above, but with suppressor and 5.56/.223-style mag...

    Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)

    Update: AFAIK, all shipping to UK is now suspended until end of January (apart from food, medicine and other essentials). Just had this confirmed by two retailers in Hong Kong, one in Russia and others across Europe. I assume US also. Apparently due to new Covid restrictions relating to UK...

    Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)

    I’ve just received delivery of an item purchased from the US. Expected delivery time was 5 days. It took 32 days to arrive at my door due to significant delays with Customs checks, brought on by ports/airports and international couriers currently in chaos prepping for Brexit. If you’re thinking...

    THE TM MWS thread

    Cool. Meant to be a very good grip by all accounts. Should drop right in to the MWS. PS: edit to add that I think Magpul also make a similar product. It might be called the MIAD (?). I could be wrong, but worth a quick Google.

    THE TM MWS thread

    Ouch! If it's any consolation I did the same to mine when replacing the trigger guard, albeit not quite so spectacularly (I broke off just one of the tabs). From Googling at the time, it seems to be a fairly common occurrence in the real steel world - the tabs on the M4/AR-15 platform being...

    THE TM MWS thread

    Good question. Personally, I use the DP Enhanced Nozzle Spring Set which is reportedly "more durable", but doesn’t specify any kind of % in terms of spring resistance. I bought it 'on a whim' whilst ordering some other parts (my stock TM spring was still fine at the time) and I've been running...

    I like that! Nice simplicity to it. I'd personally leave the stock black, but YMMV ? So as a quick follow-up I can now confirm that: The Magpul trigger guards do fit the MWS, but only after a wee bit of filing down in places (this applies to the aluminium guard; the plastic version might be...

    ^ Sorted. That’s good to know. Cheers! ?

    THE TM MWS thread

    Thanks Dave! Sorry to be an incessant sod, but can you clarify what you mean by "tuning"? E.g. did you have to widen the pin punch holes on the MWS to fit the Magpul pin and screw, something like that?

    THE TM MWS thread

    Quick question: anyone know whether the Magpul trigger guards are compatible with the MWS? ? E.g. the Magpul enhanced (aluminium) or plastic MOE trigger guards.   Thanks.

    THE TM MWS thread

    I have one of these. Works flawlessly as far as I can tell. I’ve yet to test it fully during a game day, but I’ve fired a few hundred BBs with it and seems to function exactly the same as the stock Marui BCG. I bought mine from Airsoft Global. Great service and fast shipping. I opted for the...

    Typical FPS Increase From Tight Bore Barrels - ?

    A quick update… I’ve now tested and chrono'd two Prometheus tight bore barrels in my MWS: one measuring 250mm and another longer at 370mm (both 6.03mm bore). Set up: Abbey Predator gas; SixG Super Nub; standard MWS bucking; 0.2 BBs. Short barrel: MWS shoots at average velocity of around...

    Funniest Airsoft Fallacies

    THE TM MWS thread

    Do you have link to the info on that? (just curious). I’m less excited by the MK18 myself… I’m sure it’ll be great, but it’s an easy build based on just the stock M4 MWS with some good after-market MK18 handguards out there (I guess accounting for the estimated price-hike from the stock MWS)...

    Typical FPS Increase From Tight Bore Barrels - ?

    Holy crap! Yeah, I read that wrong ? So you got the equivalent of +50-60 fps from just switching to a 6.04 bore barrel? Wow. I had no idea it could have such a difference. I’ve since bought a chronograph (arriving this week), so I’ll report back on the Prometheus 6.03 barrel once I’ve had...

    Typical FPS Increase From Tight Bore Barrels - ?

    Thanks for the input! Yeah, the Prometheus barrel I have seems to be a drop-in replacement for the original Marui one - the bucking fits the barrel mouth no problem.   15fps increase would be fine in my situation, so I’m hoping the new 6.03mm barrel produces a similar result ?
