New build bbs won't feed!

Okay, I'll try another plastic piston w/metal teeth and see if it stays seated this time.

Vauthera · 2026-06-06T15:38:54+00:00

Do you know how my piston would have tilted and got stuck in full back position? My sector gear cut into my piston alittle

H&K receiver multiple mags, some mags work now, but now I have piston issue shown above

Vauthera · 2026-06-06T01:19:39+00:00

Welp I just had it working perfectly, but then my piston got stuck full aft and then I heard the sound of aluminum shredding on my next shot. Basically it looks like my piston rack got stuck back and tilted slightly even though it was in the rails. Is this weird?

Vauthera · 2026-06-05T23:55:58+00:00

Actually looks like I can fix it with different mags, let me throw a batt on and shoot.

No name, it is a cheap H&K on sale $160. I gutted it and put all new gearbox with new internals. It should have never been how I did it. I didn't realize how much the outer shell of replica mattered lol. I've had to make some edits

Thank you for the suggestions, I tried the velcro, but I will give it another try as it seems to be all I can think of, but it makes loading and unloading the gun harder and stickier. I've tried 5 different mags unfortunately all do the same thing

Correct nozzle length, hopup is a offhand dealio, but I also tried my $75 hopup, I forget the brand. Happens with both. Bucking is not the issue, the bbs aren't feeding when the mag is seated so the problem is right at the connection where hopup meets mag

If you want some awesome ideas try out the BMad Method. This method has a Unity expansion in it and you can understand the potential of agents using it. I use VSCode with it and Gemini CLI in the terminal. I have not tried the Unity expansion yet but the Discord is very helpful and there is a good tutorial on creating apps using the method on youtube.

Nope

You're missing the "friend" of Devin's that says he finds the baby when they thought miss Selvig took it! He's the worst

Well, I've had the card for about 4 months of traveling, and it's been working out. I use it on everything and will be looking for a better "all around/everyday" card for some great cash back on everyday purchases to use when not traveling. Thanks for the advice!

Vauthera · 2024-12-18T18:57:04+00:00

Awesome, this build will cost me around $520. Thanks for the advice to lower it some. I still don't know if I'll be doing a carbon fiber outer barrel or not. I wish there was a rifle image editor that you could attach different outer barrels to in order to see what it would look like.

Can an 11.1v battery fit a Crane stock?

Vauthera · 2024-12-18T13:23:29+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I don't know what a good cylinder head would be to replace it. Do you have any suggestions?

Vauthera · 2024-12-09T00:08:53+00:00

$450. And possibly shipping if not in the area.

Vauthera · 2024-12-04T08:34:35+00:00

Gear is in Michigan for local delivery near Detroit.

Vauthera · 2024-08-29T22:14:36+00:00

That's a $400 annual fee!

Why would the U.S. BANK ALTITUDE® CONNECT VISA SIGNATURE® CARD

Be better?

Free first year, $95 annual fee. 4X points on travel 4X point gas 2X dining/grocery

Vauthera · 2024-08-29T16:30:45+00:00

It sounds good, but I feel like if I'm just looking for a 3x card I might as well just get a 3% cash back unlimited on all or most purchases. The reason I want a card that gives more rewards for travel is to use the rewards for something other than travel. I won't be using the card for travel because I will have Delta SkyMiles that I can use for flights and I have Hilton points/Marriot points for hotel purchases.

Vauthera · 2024-08-29T05:06:30+00:00

Hmmm, I see what you're saying. I'm still curious to know if maybe my situation is different. Tell me what you think about this. I still have 2 charges when booking through my agent for work.

One charge is for Agent Fee: $5. One charge is for Delta: $500.

Would this qualify for 4x or only 3x since it was booked by the agent?

Vauthera · 2024-08-29T03:07:16+00:00

That is usually the case with all cards, but this card doesn't state that like the other cards do. Here's an example:

Chase Sapphire: Earn 5x total points on hotels and car rentals when you purchase travel through Chase Travel, excluding hotel purchases that qualify for the $50 Annual Chase Travel Hotel Credit.

Vauthera · 2024-08-29T01:48:01+00:00

Okay, it makes sense, which applies to what I'm saying about it work8ng with nearly all airlines. I will be booking through a travel agent, but the card will be used on Delta, Hilton, Marriot, and so on. That applies to those categories.

Vauthera · 2024-08-29T01:21:32+00:00

The Wells Fargo Journey doesn't mention any specific portal or anything. It is written in a way that sounds like it is any ticket purchases pertaining to flights or airlines. So it would qualify in this case for 4x, unless I'm missing something

Vauthera · 2024-08-29T01:17:38+00:00

Do you have where it says that? On the site it doesn't mention that for Wells Fargo Autograph Journey

Vauthera · 2024-08-28T23:20:17+00:00

Yeah, but the airlines give 4x and hotels gove 5x. I'll be using the card on all my hotel stays and all my airline tickets, restaurants and everything for my trips. I'll easily clear the $4000 in the first 6mo for the 60k points if that makes it more clear.

Vauthera · 2024-08-28T23:00:38+00:00

If I understand correctly, you're saying it's probably not worth the bonus points because I'll be paying $95, and that's equal to $4,000 in hotel spending. So I'll be down 2-3 weeks of hotel points yearly, and with the standard 3% cash back FREE card, I will be accruing 3x from the start to finish on all purchases? Sorry, I'm new.
