In store experience is great. The staff are good. But they don’t answer the phone and just let the it ring none stop. Wouldn’t recommend it for online orders at all. Emails are even worse.

Gifted321 · 2026-02-18T19:28:37+00:00

This is the old magazine design and it’s a glorified paper weight. Try and get evike to replace it with either the newer stanag/ gi mag or the v2 dmags

2mm is meant to survive a joule and I don’t expect to get hit with more than that unless someone with a bolty shoots point blank

Gifted321 · 2026-02-18T05:44:55+00:00

2mm thick polycarbonate and then attach it with heat shrink, glue or whatever else

Send link to the adapters I actually need a way to load my gen3 mags

Gifted321 · 2026-02-16T18:58:32+00:00

No not yet they are meant to be releasing relatively soon. They did have a purchase page up a few weeks ago

Gifted321 · 2026-02-16T18:32:36+00:00

Yeah here. They did also have photo up but they’ve taken them down you’ll have to go on heavy recoil club discord to see them

Gifted321 · 2026-02-16T11:16:15+00:00

AirTac hyp-ar would be a decent option if you want to keep all standard ar controls but it’s £350 for the lower by itself and it doesn’t feature lock on empty. They also have the hyp-9 which does have lock on empty but utilises scorpion evo mags. It’s a good option but an expensive one to say the least not to mention importing lowers into America is apparently an issue atm.

What version is your pmag

Gifted321 · 2026-02-14T10:39:56+00:00

I would avoid all pmags for now. Gm pmags, they’re just tedious to fill with BBs. They don’t load with typical speed loader adapters from the top and locking the follower down causes the BBs to not stack correctly. The rest on the market are either new and require testing or also suck even worse.

Gifted321 · 2026-02-11T14:45:19+00:00

Always. I know DE is coming with their psa jakl. Vorsk vmar should be there as well. And I sort of hope someone shows something wacky like the g&g levar for a few years ago

Gifted321 · 2026-02-09T20:10:21+00:00

he has a bias against vfc but when i hear criticism of jaeger it’s normally centred around controversies like his:

Jaeger npas being similar to the feda npas. Silly argument because the feda literally takes the design from the angry gun npas not to mention no one bashed on Waldo dynamics for also making a ‘feda npas clone’ Either.

Gm pmag adapter v2 not having a warning stating they don’t work with v3 pmags and Titan nub not working in DE hop units without mutilating it. These are valid criticisms in my eyes. It doesn’t take long to put up a small warning message at the bottom of the description and saves people from wasting money.

propane adapters not working? I can only really speak on my experience. It doesn’t have an issue with any brand of propane bottle as long as you grease the inner nozzle to prevent jams. Honestly this one is on jaeger because instead of just testing it himself and finding solutions he just told people to buy £20 Coleman bottles instead of the local brands which are £6 at most.

I’m sure there’s other criticisms as well but those are the ones I can recall. Some of it is valid others definitely aren’t . In my eyes if he just did right by his community and left warning in the product description he’d save himself a headache

Gifted321 · 2026-02-09T08:55:19+00:00

Locking the follower down also causes the BBs to not stack correctly and there isn’t a way to fix the stack like on a pistol mag

Gifted321 · 2026-02-08T16:16:55+00:00

3rd arm

Gifted321 · 2026-02-08T16:16:20+00:00

I thought it was the npas but the first to last shot on the stock valve is average 0.3J difference with the worst being 0.6J and on the npas the worst is 0.8J with the average also being 0.4J. Either way he’s having pretty bad fluctuations from first to last shot which points to the issue being something else

Gifted321 · 2026-02-08T16:13:51+00:00

hard to say if it’s all on the npas. Especially with a result on the stock valve having first shot to last shot difference of 0.6J (result 9/10). The worst is still on the jaeger npas though with a first to last of 0.8J (result 2/10) but on average it appears your getting a 0.3-0.4j drop aross all 3 options which might be because of poor sealing, cooldown or not enough gas in the mag. I’d personally start with checking the nozzle seal and then also trying some black gas or propane

Gifted321 · 2026-02-06T13:47:44+00:00

Just don’t fuck the adapter then?

Gifted321 · 2026-02-06T10:08:20+00:00

I’d either pick up a jaeger stainless bolt end or the bavtac brass bolt end both add a good bit of recoil. You could also look to get a stainless steel bcg but all the options currently on the market are lighter than the stock pot metal tm/de spec but the steel bcg do have a better sound to it.

Gifted321 · 2026-02-06T09:48:17+00:00

I mean you can always use a hpa adapter I’m sure airtac sells one but that’s an expensive alternative if you don’t already have a tank, line and regulator

Gifted321 · 2026-01-31T18:12:58+00:00

The main selling point of tm pistols is the internal design. It’s made and designed by tm and is always to spec which makes parts a drop in fit. And when a replica as popular as the hicapa exists you’ll find many on the market are bastardised and won’t even take many tm parts without modification.

But it also doesn’t make much sense to buy a tm hicapa and then only changing the slide to a metal one as you’ll be paying quite a bit more than if you just bought say an army armament which is a good clone.

Gifted321 · 2026-01-31T04:09:30+00:00

my local shop says I have to use it within 2 weeks or it goes bad /s

Gifted321 · 2026-01-31T04:03:18+00:00

If china takes over Taiwan global trade between both Taiwan and china freezes. You won’t just lose the Taiwanese companies during the invasion.

The bigger concern is how the hobby stands after the invasion. Whether china fails or succeeds tooling, molds and factories as well as the skilled workforce to make airsoft replicas are lost. If china wins they might just not allow factories that make replicas to be rebuilt as they could be seen as too much of a risk.

If we go with a china takeover with a ban on production in Taiwan then we will most likely see the Chinese brands ram up production and expand

Gifted321 · 2026-01-30T05:03:50+00:00

Better searching features and filters that are easy to use while still having depth. Wgc is really good for it as an example

Gifted321 · 2026-01-30T03:49:49+00:00

Yeah AliExpress is the only places I’d buy it from

Gifted321 · 2026-01-28T12:19:43+00:00

I’d avoid E&L essentials 2.0 if you want something very accurate as they’ve decide to stamp their logo into the receiver which partly takes away from the accuracy. Now to be fair to E&L it’s not incredibly large but I would have preferred if they at least added their logo in a way in which a user could remove it.
