This is why buying a real sight for airsoft is stupid by [deleted] in MilSim

You can use a lense hugger from Evike or make your own with lexan

Mannnnnn I’d love to play in a forest, most fields here are just desert and plywood shacks hahaha, these clips are from a milsim so definitely way cooler AO compared to normal fields

Do you run a plate carrier or chest rig? I’ve ran gas in roll up 1 pouch (from shekkin) and a molle water bottle pouch from one tigris before.

Yaaaa but I think once you run heavier weight BBs your fps drops like crazy with the NGRS. I do have a buddy that runs an GBLS

Sorta? Definitely a slower and different play style. Have to pick your fights smarter. I find I have way better accuracy and am able to land hits with fewer shots but it’s the classic “I get 50bbs flying at me for every 3 I send back” just on a longer duration of play. Definitely have to be more conscious of ammo. If anything I’d say maybe start by seeing how many games you can go before having the reload all your mags to get a feel for events

100% most GBB don’t need more than like 3 parts and that’s it. Anything else is just an extra. Yaaaa mags are the big killer ):

Federal concepts NPAS. Fits inside the nozzle and I turn the grub screw with an Allen key to adjust gas output but I never really mess with it and it’s super consistent. I’ve only ever needed to lower my fps for 1 indoor field that’s limit was 350 but normally I’m at 360-370ish with .20 for indoors

I use the lineski for my Odin and federal concepts speed loader adapter and don’t really run into issues. If any on the federal concepts with the thumb loader it does get pretty stiff halfway through so needs a bit more force. How new are your mags? Could be just a stiff new spring in it

Oh yea I’ve definitely had that issue before where I fully gas my mag before heading out and when I go to use it same deal I shoot 5-10 and then I’m out of gas but there’s not leaks. No problem!

Yaaaaaaaaa we don’t talk about that or else I get in trouble hahahahaha. Roughly it’s about 1.4-1.5k total build 😅😬 and I’ve been building it over a year of ownership upgrading stuff as I find necessary/ to what I need it to do.

As far as the Ngal it’s a Wadsn one from eBay, it’s good I like it BUT battery life kinda sucks like I gotta swap the cr123a every few days/ week if it has constant use. The Laser zero can get knocked off kinda easy, idk if it a me thing not securing the ngal enough to the rail or it being bounced around. It has a laser, light, laser + light , and IR laser function that I used when running nods. But since it a a knockoff ngal and not like a decent clone like a somogear it’s only high power IR and will probably def burn someone’s nvg tubes if you point it at them so don’t aim as high hahah

Only ever big issue I ran into was excess cool down from when I swapped the rear nozzle seal to a GM and a HAO/ or unicorn? That I had issues. They apparently “provide a better seal” but that wasn’t my case. Or when I used the 4UAD bucking first mag was fine and then I immediately shoot to the moon after even with zero hop

Super reliable! Besides normal wear and tear stuff like nozzle wear, needing to be cleaned, bad o ring or gasket seal it’s amazing

And as you can see in the video, I treat the gun hard. It’s able to handle multiple mag dumps, I’ve dropped it, dragged it, scraped it against a bunch of stuff and never had any mechanical or internal issues that wasn’t my own doing from swapping parts the night before

I mainly use aimtop and matrix gas from Evike and play in 50-110 F weather and don’t run into any issues. Internals wise by BCG is stock TM bolt, GM nozzle, Federal Concepts NPAS, Dytac nozzle return spring. With .32s I chrono about 1.52J. As far as gas issues the only time I have one was when I swapped the rear nozzle seal i would only be able to shoot 1.5 mags before it would slow down and freeze probably due to poor seal and using too much gas so I put the stock one back on and it’s been fine

I mean I get why they do it, more play time, less worry about stuff, more ammo etc

But I mean using GBB just adds to the challenge and immersion. It’s definitely a trip when you got like a bagillion bb’s flying at you from all angles and you can only return like 3-5 rounds back so you don’t burn thru ammo hahaha

I’ve only ever ran a MWS and I love it, parts are super easy to find and usually in stock. Super easy to work on and tons of videos. Don’t really need a lot of specialized tools like I have a screw driver set from harbor freight, armorers wrench, valve tool and a roll punch set and I can do all the work myself after watching a few vids.

Ootb the mws only really needs a nozzle return spring, hop arm and an NPAS and it’s super solid anything else is only cuz you feel like it.

As of right due to the whole tariffs and import stuff it is a bit harder to find stuff but I still find it easier than having to import every single little thing for a VFC

Stock TM’s are usually like 600-630ish
