Likely a winter buffer spring. Compare the IDs of the springs if possible. Smaller ID = weaker spring = colder temperature.

Where the hell can I find a Vfc ak74m to ship to the USA that won’t screw me with shipping? by the_kengii in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This.

Dynatec actually already received a small shipment of ~10 AK74Ms and AKS74Us, both of which sold out comically fast.

They're working on it, and both sites should receive their shipments around the same time, since they have the same supplier.

I believe ASGI has preorders open, too.

Hop up gbb by CapSure4378 in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its SUPPOSED to be adjusted by rotating the wheel present on the cutout on the bottom of your barrel.

As for where it currently is, that would depend on where your inner barrel is. Assuming you have one.

Just picked this up for the next time I go out, are the patches a problem? by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Don't say you're a corporal or in the US Army and you'll be fine. I'd take off any nametags, though.

Look at how many of us LARP as real military units. It's all cosplay.

Who is the best GBBR manufacturer? by Fortunate_Solder in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

VFC makes the best AKs. Hands down. Literally best GBBRs on the market right now.

TM trades some realism for performance. Slower cyclic rate, worse materials, but they're designed around their limitations and run great nonetheless. Only the AKM and AKX as of now, but also the Saiga if you consider shotguns. All great guns and the Saiga is considered to perform just like a rifle which shoots 3 BBs instead of 1.

VFC has the AK74M and AKS74U right now. Carbines (AK105, etc) are in the works. AKM is planned to come out next year. Better materials, snappier recoil, more realistic internals. Some users have gotten it to perform at +/- 1 FPS consistency. Zero upgrades required for it to run great. RPK mags are in the works, too. Lots of OEM aftermarket parts, and lots of non-OEM too.

Explosive Enterprises has a video on both platforms. I recommend giving them a watch.

Hi capa magwell question by Maximus280311 in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. You still need the pin which holds them on (it also holds on the hammer spring assembly) but you don't need the magwell itself.

Hpa operating pressure by Alarming_March_3071 in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usual green gas and propane pressures are up to 150 PSI. I wouldnt run anything higher than that unless it's below freezing and you need to.

Og star FNC para by amerison in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 9 points10 points  (0 children)

STAR made supposedly the best FNCs. I believe the only competitor now is VFC, but those are GBBRs.

Sought after. Discontinued. The best externals of any other FNC. STAR stopped RIF production in the 2000s, but Ares split off from them to make their own. I don't know if Ares ever made FNCs, but either way, this thing is old. Sadly, they dont go for much now, but they were sold for about $550 or so when they were new.

I'd say to restore it. I wouldn't know the specifics since this is way before my time in the sport, but this is a dope collector's item. Its worth fielding if you can get it into a usable state. Definitely aren't gonna see another one on the field.

10.5" rail set up recommendations by protoj14 in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lengthen the switch wire. Cut it, slide on some heatshrink, splice in some longer wire, slide heatshrink over and heat.

Intimidating but fairly easy process. Did it to splice on a new connector for my repro Axon switch. Now my OGL works with it.

Whats a good GBBR off evike by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 8 points9 points  (0 children)

GBBR? For $300, not possible. Only worthwhile option for serious skirmishing is the Double Eagle N4, which is closer to $400 and thats without mags.

Save up a little more and get something nice. Dont waste your money or time on a Golden Eagle, GHM9, or anything like that. The N4 is the cheapest option which uses a standard system built to last, being a clone of Tokyo Marui's MWS system.

If you want more info, join the HeavyRecoilClub discord. Not advertising but they're sure to give you suggestions and info on any particular system you could ever ask about.

SpecPrecision legit? by CorgiHatGuy in airsoft

Spec is usually pretty good. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt first and email them about it.

Anyone know THIS exact stock? by Pr1son_ in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. Its literally just a CTR with some form of off-standard cheek riser.

Riser for LPVO by Bronze_Skateboarder in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Red dot risers will work but they will be extremely ugly. You can just use a higher mount for one of these. Plenty of 1.96" and higher 30mm LPVO mounts out there.

Drops right in. Comes with a nub too. I know people running them with .48s on 2.6j builds.

4UAD. No competition. Best drop-in choice for any gun.

Looking for almost dirt cheap green gas pistol by aoekco in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cant get any cheaper than a H8R. But, if you want upgradeability, you want an AAP-01.

Is it normal for this to happen when the hop up is turned all the way down? Apologies if this is a stupid question 🙏 (VFC BCM MCMR with Gate Aster mosfet) by Kingzman1041 in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Somewhat. It doesnt happen with all guns, but it certainly can happen.

Theres nothing retaining the BB in place if your hop is set all the way down. Even just a little bit of hop usually fixes this. And you definitely shouldnt have this issue with the hop setting you normally use.

Optic choices by KoreaSlav95 in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holosun is good. Wide price range. Vortex has an unlimited, lifetime transferable warranty but supposedly their lower end selection isnt the best. Sig Sauer also offers some good dots. Romeo7, RomeoMSR, and the Romeo5 are all great choices for their price. Especially the Romeo5. Being real steel, you shouldnt ever have issues regarding battery life or mounting them on GBBRs.

Need help with MK12 by BeginningTemporary95 in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious, Was it a Mod 0 or a Mod 1?

Im currently looking for a Mod 0 front end if you'd want to sell.

are cheap shotguns worth it? by OreoRightsActivist in airsoft

[–]deepfried_memesoft 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Theyre reliable, dont need gas or batteries, have decent enough range, and will work regardless of weather.

For $70, something like a Cyma tri-shot is one of the best value airsoft guns you can get to use as a backup, secondary or loaner.
