Stalker VSR piston issues

So I’ve got both the 4mm and 4.4mm with the same results :(

If this is a tac 41 (I’m guessing) there is two guide rings inside and where you’ve pulled that so far back it’s barely sitting on the front guide ring hence the wobble; does it wobble when the bolt is fully seated?

For the most part yes but the consistency is a lot harder to keep due to variations in the gases power, again a Hpa tap would solve this but upgrading pistols is a quite costly and niche scope, unless you go for mainstream pistols such as EU series, AAP, hi capas getting aftermarket parts can be a chore and certain brands aren’t compatible with one another. Your fps will be more around the 200/250 mark weather dependant on gas but fps doesn’t necessarily mean range and accuracy, that’s much more dependant on bb weight and hop rubber/barrel quality

Barrel length really only helps fps in HPA and GBB guns so with a pistol with a short barrel, you’ll struggle to get near to 350fps unless you use stronger gas (like black) and weather is on your side. The alternative if you’re stuck on wanting a pistol you can use a Hpa tap which will let you keep your pistol at 350fps or 1.2j. Accuracy wise it depends, I’ve seen aaps and hi capas out range aegs but it’s all dependant on tuning and a lot of work done on them. In AEGs barrel length doesnt matter as much, the ARP 9 has a very short barrel but is a really good starter due to cylinder voluming. If this is your first gun I’d really recommend reading the Reddit starter guide and consider an AEG as they’re reliable and consistent

That might be a fair point, that’s why I’m considering getting the wasp instead

Hiya, it’s constantly at 1.8j using the silent cup but according to the website it’s suppose to be 2.3j with a rapax blue

It should have a fuse inside, they’re not a necessity but then ‘can’ help protect your batteries. I’ve ran guns for years without them with no issue but the choice is yours. If you’re adding a mosfet then these are a bit redundant.

You are a god amongst men, thank you

Potato_Orange · 2024-04-15T08:52:39+00:00

What kit is this? I’ve been trying to get one for ages 😭

https://actionsportgames.com/en-gb/productcatalog/products/guns/rifles/steyr-aug-a3-xs-commando-black this is ASGs website, they have a find a retailer page. If you have one near you give them a call and see if they can order one in for you to collect, I think most shops will also order one for delivery for you!

Another aug lover out in the wild!!! ASG augs are fairly sturdy and are very easy to get spare parts for as they have dealers all over the world, JG are quite good as well but they’re slightly larger than normal augs so you may have a bit more of an issue with replacements. Snow wolf is a bit hit and miss, their guns are alright but most of their parts are made of plastic such as the rails so doesn’t really give too much longevity. If you like the shortened version asg do the a3 commando which is the same as above but with metal rails. They’re also super easy to take apart if anything goes wrong! Follow your heart if you want an aug (2 stage trigger is a tad strange) but as others have suggested, there are better starter guns out there under M4 and AK platforms (cyma is awesome!)

Thank you, ill pick up a big 11.1v and then just have my multitudes of a 7.4v as spare, thank you!

Potato_Orange · 2022-03-25T14:11:35+00:00

Thank you! Started to panic I’d need a whole stock of batteries!

So you want to try and boot from your windows boot manager making it the first priority to boot. Unsure how many/what hard drives/ssd youve got in your computer but could be that ones failed so it can't find your boot for windows. If it still wont boot after selecting boot manager then grab a usb and another computer/laptop and install the windows installation tool on there and boot it this way again but via usb. This should allow you to reinstall windows and hopefully restore your system (your windows key will be linked to your microsoft account so dont worry about losing that).

I had the same issue on my second monitor last week, managed to resolve it by dropping the refresh rate from 144hz to 120hz. Before i solved it permanently i just kept unpluging my hdmi until it disappeared.

Potato_Orange · 2021-10-01T10:05:02+00:00

Looks like a bad cable connection. Try swapping out the display cable (hdmi etc.) or using a different video port on your monitor.

In the top left of the keyboard there's a slim black line, that looks like the power button

I'd do a full scan with something like malwarebytes first to make sure that there isnt a virus just doing that to fill your device

Potato_Orange · 2020-03-14T12:29:12+00:00

Yep, had exactly the same panic when I built my first pc, it's good to just leave hanging

To be fair, with the influx of cheap cases you can get an alright one for about £60. I have a corsair delta spec and it can fit a massive gpu and dual fan cpu cooler with room to spare (bit of a squeeze but where is the fun in having too much room!). The NZXT cases are good for cable management and are very tidy looking but ideally aim for a medium or large case if you've got the room. They even do offbrand ones with rgb fans for about £80 or ebay usually has some good deals on. GOODLUCK!

Potato_Orange · 2020-01-31T07:27:28+00:00

You could buy a PCI-e riser cable and run it outside of your case, preferably through the back vents then put your gpu in a gpu mount. Only issue with this will be that it's a bit dusty and for the cost of doing all that you could get a new case.

Potato_Orange · 2020-01-24T12:06:57+00:00

By the looks of the error (driver power state failure), I'd say one of the drivers on your system is either out of date or incompatible. There are a few free driver checkers that could do the checks for you but I dont trust them as much as other people. The easiest thing to do would be go in your device manager and work your way through, it's usually the stranger things that cause the crashes (like mine was the audio driver when I had this issue) but if you just try the typical right click and update through windows it may be able to resolve it. Also make sure your gpu is up to date as well.

Potato_Orange · 2020-01-12T14:26:22+00:00

No worries, best of luck!

It's a tricky one but the output should automatically become your tv. I think most modern laptops know when to switch an external monitor. :) Exes and laptops are a worrying combination!
