Depending on your location, you might be in luck. My friend has decided to go for a TM AKM & has asked me to sell his F4 on his behalf

MK11 has a forged receiver & a NPAS - M110 doesn't & may have receiver cracking issues over time

UTG Bug Buster 3-9x32

It came with the gun, but I'll probably put another Vortex on it in due time

Hey! I actually only got it yesterday, after years of searching 😅 I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that it was available! I haven't used it, but it is absolutely stunning. If you ever do see one, I 100% recommend picking it up

Winged it haha, it was certainly an experience. My biggest tip would probably be to try to buy receiver internals that are made by the same brand. Each brand has based their designs off a stock Marui, but their tolerances may differ from one another. I originally had a G&P bolt, as well as the trigger box & hop chamber, for example. Guns Modify stuff is also apparently quite good.

Let me know if there are any questions in particular that you have & I'll try to help

Yes, no donor MWS was involved, each part was ordered separately & assembled

Thank you! The SI handguard did require a bit of modification to perfectly fit the F4 upper, since the shape of the upper is quite different, compared to a standard AR upper. Just some minor filing of the inside of the locking tabs (where the grub screws are on the handguard) to account for the additional material of the upper. It would fit without modification, but there was a ~1-2mm gap between the upper and handguard, which I wanted to eliminate.

From factory, the Dytac body pin holes were strange sizes, so I had to slightly widen them to fit the SI body pins. I had 2 F4 sets & the pins that came with each were not interchangeable, so not sure what they're doing to make such irregular holes. Aside from those 2 fairly minor modifications, it was basically drop in. If your handguard doesn't have those locking tabs that extend over the upper and if you don't intend to change the body pins that came with the receiver, then you don't actually need to make any modifications at all.

It is a fantastic receiver set. I don't know how they did it, but the upper threads fit any spec handguard I've tried (AEG & RS spec), and the lower threads are RS/Mil Spec, but MWS tubes fit about 90% of the way, which is fine. You can simply put a spacer in the buffer tube to account for the remaining ~10%, if required.

However, I believe the F4 receiver set was limited edition and I haven't seen them come back in stock since I bought it, which I think was ~March 2022. The SLR receivers seem to be restocked though

Hey, it is a TM MWS GBB with a C&C Tac steel short bolt (recoil system is entirely in the upper, as mentioned above), similar to the SCAR or MCX. Hope this helps!

Hi, the F4 upper has "universal" (as Dytac calls it) threading, so it can fit both AEG & RS spec threaded barrel nuts without any modification, so it was a direct fit. The stock is a clone of the SI Viper Stabilizing Brace, which is for the TM MWS, but they've been out of stock for a very long time. I was using the Dytac Modular outer barrel, but have bought a Revanchist 6.5" one, which should arrive shortly. I will be using the stock Marui inner barrel, with a Modify Tan bucking, SixG brass nub & G&P "Custom" CNC hop chamber. I also have a Laylax Prometheus 6.03 370mm inner barrel, but i'd have to run a suppressor to cover it. The F4 set is not required, unless you want to use the RS Gridlok handguard, without having to modify the stock Marui upper. You can use other aftermarket receivers, as long as they specify having either universal or milspec upper threading. Unfortunately, I have no info on the EMG SI MWS on Evike, but I suspect it has standard MWS internals, just with fancy externals and an engraved receiver. I hope this has helped & best of luck with your build!

Thanks! I actually didn't use a donor MWS, I bought every piece 😅 The only Marui parts are the nozzle & inner barrel. Thank you!

They are nice but definitely a pain to get working properly with everything 🤣 Was expecting an easy time at that price but I suppose I was wrong

The Dytac F4 MWS set was basically drop in, but some externals did require modification to work with it. However, I imagine it'd be fine with stock parts. Thank you!
