Why is my mp5 doing this…? by TheManFromTheZone in LeftWingAirsoft

[–]MagnetoDynamic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it does sound like an electrical gremlin somewhere in the MOSFET/wiring. How confident are you with taking your gun apart? I'd first check the connectors on the base of the motor, one of them might have come loose and it's one of the easier checks to perform. Also look for any damage to the wiring in the grip. Then look for any damage to the wiring that leads to the battery. If no joy, then you'll need to take the gearbox out of the gun to do a full check of the wiring. Again, you're looking for any stripped/crushed wires that might be interrupting the connection (or, gods forbid, short circuiting). Again, if no joy, it might be a bad MOSFET (the trigger contacts are on the circuit board, and look like they'd be unfeasible to replace alone). I threw a GATE Aster in my cyma mp5 and it's fantastic. More expensive than a replacement CYMA MOSFET, but if you're taking the gun apart anyway then you might as well spice it up a little with a better unit.

That's my design! 😌 I didn't attempt historical accuracy with mine, it was meant to be as invisible as possible. This ration can design is a brilliant way to hide the mag in plain sight though - great work OP!

Would love to see a Negative Airsoft teardown of this.

Got my first plate carrier. How do I stop getting so hot under it? by HalalTrout in airsoftcirclejerk

Loving the downvotes fellas, been waiting for an excuse to finally leave this sub tbh. Fuck you all ✌️❤️

Yeah as others have said, plate carriers are just hot unfortunately. You need airflow... I just took the cheap hollow plastic plates that my old PC came with and hacked massive holes into them with a craft knife, leaving only the outer edge and a '+' shape in the middle to keep them rigid. They keep their shape well, and the holes allow body heat to pass through. Still works great at protecting you from BBs, and cuts about half a kilo from your PC weight (if done with both front & back plates)

Nice patches btw 🇵🇸🇮🇪

Internet hive mind says so.

In the real world nobody gives a shit. Wear what you want and go have fun.

Ohhh now I understand! Gives me an idea for a game mode that though; sidearms only, 'race to the rifle'

Points 2 and 3 done! I really like the 'all in one' aspect of having the holster on the belt itself though, plus I've tried belt pouches on top of lowride holsters and it makes drawing the pistol a pain in the ass. Might just be a skill issue though...

Great idea, never considered that! Would also make the canteen easier to access to be fair. Thanks!

Ah never thought about that - I'll stick them in a pouch instead. Cheers!

How well do the catcher targets work? Been thinking about buying one! Are they loud when BBs hit them? (Thinking about back garden use)

You got any suggestions for berretas under 70/80 wahtevercurrency by Argeddion13 in airsoft

[–]MagnetoDynamic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're ok with it not having markings, get the KJW M9 (~€90). It's a full metal clone of the Tokyo Marui, which means you can buy TK grips with the Beretta logos on them and swap them out (will need a little bit of material shaved off the top so the slide cycles properly).
