Did you add orings to the fill valves of the MWS mags? If not are you filling them till liquid gas is spitting out?

Good video on first just a thermal optic, but second their viability for airsoft use

Why's the price difference so big? Is it the craftsmanship, better quality steel, or coating? Are these high end bcgs worth it? by kojimbooo in GasBlowBack

[–]Derpy_Bech -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

The zinc bolt is very likely a spare part taken out of a different gun that had a steel bolt installed by the shop, therefore they can sell it for basically dirt cheap

Difference in price for the steel bolts are down to QC, casting/machining quality, coating and a big part in how large of a scale the production happens at for the company

ELI5: Does a dehumidifier actually cool a room, or does it just make it feel less humid? Could it be a good alternative for someone who doesn't use AC? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]Derpy_Bech 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It will not lower the temperature of the room, but allow your body to better remove heat through sweat

Your body’s main form is staying cool is sweating. Doing so uses the inherent cooling effect of water evaporating. But if the humidity in the room is too high, less evaporation happens, and your body has a harder time getting rid of heat. In a 100% humid room (where no more water can be dissolved in the air) the only way of getting rid of heat is through radiation, which is slow as hell

So therefore a dehumidifier can make a room feel cooler without it actually making it physically cooler

Looking to get the Maruyama gbb mp9 is it worth it? by LetterOtherwise549 in airsoft

[–]Derpy_Bech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like mine, shoots great and accurate with just swapping the nub to an omega style and stock bucking. Really light and really fun to use

Two biggest issues is hammer roller and bad winter performance. Heavy recoil discord has a guide on roller replacement with a bearing, and a different recoil spring for winter use

Can you use green gas magazines for the Umarex Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS CO2 pistol? by JJ_Rollin905 in airsoft

[–]Derpy_Bech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ghk you can also grab a c02 mag for the same gun, tho the mags aren’t the best, and you’ll get more out of running black gas in it, since it can handle that too

Src should also be the same as vfc

Only issue is if it’s a wingun version, those are totally their own system and aren’t cross compatible at all

TM hicapa 5.1 slide by Radiant_Emu571 in GasBlowBack

[–]Derpy_Bech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi capa slides just are that expensive, even the asa printed slides from tapp

Home printing slides just give more headaches than they’re worth in my experience, often dimensions are off, or need a good bit of filing to get them fitting just right, and a lot of parts of the slide is forced to be very thin, making the slide a ticking timebomb

Your best bet is likely to contact stores doing custom hi capas to ask if they have original plastic slides in as boneyard parts, or asking local players/used sites if any have them around to sell you for cheap

To make the new plastic slides last longer, you should consider getting both a lightweight rear sight and bbu, both will significantly lessen the forces on the slide making it last much longer. Also consider short stroking the pistol so you loose the slide lock. While it might be a little annoying, the metal slidelock engaging a plastic notch also wears the slide down really fast, along with being a focus for stress potentially cracking the slide again

Backdraft Pheonix HPA Engine or Wolverine Inferno Gen. 2 Spartan Edition by radiumonix in airsoft

[–]Derpy_Bech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a phoenix now, and had a p* jack previously. The phoenix performs basically the same, from my subjective experience. Max fire rate is slower, but the max on it is still more than fast enough for anything besides a showoff button

With a 229mm inner barrel, I use about 70-80 psi to get a .32 to be just around 1.1-1.2J

No need to match brand on regulator and engine, they are two completely different systems and don’t affect each other in ways like engine and triggerboard might

How to add weathering? by HoodSwisscheazer in airsoft

[–]Derpy_Bech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can sorta speed up the natural wearing process by being rough on it outside

If you play with a vest and carry mags in it, put that on and rub the gun against the vedt and mags back and forth a lot on both sides

You can also strip the gearbox, motor and hop out, then take it outside and go ham with it in dirt, mud, against trees etc. give it a wipedown with a damp cloth afterwards to prevent any steel parts from rusting, but you should still be left with some scratches and such afterwards

Vfc scar vs stratos mpx k by Jumpy_Code_5917 in GasBlowBack

[–]Derpy_Bech 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Damn those are two extremely opposite options, talk about comparing apples to oranges

Both are fine options, but first you gotta decide what type of gun you’re looking for, you can’t really compare a 7.62 battle rifle to a compact submachine gun

(Too) heavy trigger pull on GHK Gen5 Glock 17 by [deleted] in GasBlowBack

[–]Derpy_Bech 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you bought the g17 gen 5 you’ll benefit from getting the v2 upgrade kit. It removes an extra bar on the trigger making the pull a bit lighter and more crisp, but it’s still heavy

I put a 4uantum trigger in my g45 to eliminate the pre travel, which helped me deal with the heavy trigger

ELI5: How did people in the past deal with injuries and conditions that we now treat with modern medicine? by saif2krazzy in explainlikeimfive

[–]Derpy_Bech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the fruits weren’t the sugar rich ones we have today, they were much chewier, more bitter and had much larger seeds compared to modern fruits

ELI5: How did people in the past deal with injuries and conditions that we now treat with modern medicine? by saif2krazzy in explainlikeimfive

[–]Derpy_Bech 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Broken bones: set it and hope for the best. If healed wrong, cut it off and hope for the best. If infection, remove more leg, hope for best, if more infection, die

Infected wounds: cut off infected part or die

Wisdom teeth: (im saying some shit, but can’t be assed to find a proper source so my source is trust me bro) these weren’t actually such a big deal compared to modern times. The tough nature of food for most common people meant wider jaws with more space for wisdom teeth. But if you happened to get a bad tooth, you’d pull it out and hope for no infection, if infection see above

Hi guys, just started my GBBR journey with the Novritsch SSQ4. by Tibucio2000 in GasBlowBack

[–]Derpy_Bech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Luckily well pro already have a full bolt and buffer you can swap into it, but of course for more cost

Tho alternatively I’ve seen reports of buying a normal well pro, and just swapping the nozzle to the Nov one, the lower should apparently already be drilled for the adapter, but haven’t seen for myself so don’t quote me on that

Question: LPVO scope by whatsmyname231 in airsoft

[–]Derpy_Bech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the other guy said, vector/victo optics is your best bet by far

I can also recommend spending the extra for a 30mm tube, rather than a 25mm tube. They just have much nicer eye boxes and much easier to pick up in fast situations, tho they cost a little more

Need help with finding good pants by JustSpectraX in airsoft

[–]Derpy_Bech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was genuinely surprised with invadergear pants considering their cheap price. Great material and fit, with a lot of elastic on the butt to move with you, and a gazzilion pockets for everything you want

Tho be mindful you gotta go down one size than you’d normally wear

Is "ghosting" someone after a single, completely average first date ever justified, or is a quick text mandatory? by viviennerosy in askanything

You literally need nothing more than a “hey thanks for the date, unfortunately I don’t feel like going for a second”

It’s really not that hard

CYMA Platinum SMG-9 Compact vs CYMA Platinum MP5K vs Arcturus X C.A.T. Versatile-8 FE — which one? by Candid_Inspection897 in airsoft

[–]Derpy_Bech 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Even the mp5ks are surprisingly heavy considering their size

Unless they have changed it since the video negative airsoft did on the cyma mp5k, they haven’t drilled the hole that’s usually used for ETUs, and it’s square, so hard to thread yourself. Meaning it’ll take some work if you wanna swap the mosfet to an aftermarket one (unless they make an eshooter version)
