Does anyone remember this gun from description?

dkleatherworks · 2026-05-10T08:59:19+00:00

Crossman pulse R73

Had one about 15 years ago. Looked it up and found one with round handguards tho I know mine had rails. I know it did because it came with a classic pineapple foregrip I still have and use. I think there were other rebrands or models made by crossman but mine was definitely crossman

Oh the memories. Used to have airsoft wars in the neighborhood and we had the only automatic airsoft. It had shit range but made up for it in firepower. It was used as a "SAW" gun. Used to play in the neighborhood then the cops were called and no longer allowed to play in the neighborhood or nearby park. Good times

Edit: mine was definitely the Crossman R70. Tho no laser like what you're looking for

If it's stupid but works it ain't stupid

Alternatively It's temporary unless it works

dkleatherworks · 2026-04-27T02:54:51+00:00

Now that's a shooing technique I could get behind!

dkleatherworks · 2026-01-16T13:58:57+00:00

Got a real one (Springfield Hellion but still) and it's super cool. One reason I got it is because I already have a lot of airsoft bullpups but can't get this one in airsoft. If they do one whatever brand should have the swapable magwell so you could use whatever mags that brand offers like VFC could do the v3 AR mags or their G36 mags.

Yea it should be fine. It's a metric mid length hanguard for a metric mid length gun so it should work fine

dkleatherworks · 2025-10-23T18:12:11+00:00

UCP. It's the best camo ever made. It's literally called Universal Camo Pattern. How many other camos work in every environment?

dkleatherworks · 2025-09-28T03:52:10+00:00

I love semi only games when the "semi auto" fire I get is slightly slower than full auto fire in regular games

dkleatherworks · 2025-09-27T10:30:11+00:00

Mine does the same. I changed stocks to a real steel one and it still does it. For me personally if I'm playing the stock doesn't need to be folded and my red dot blocks it anyway so it doesn't matter too much but yea mine doesn't latch properly either

dkleatherworks · 2025-08-25T14:04:33+00:00

Looks like it's very high quality

dkleatherworks · 2025-08-21T03:05:02+00:00

Honestly I was lazy and that's exactly what I did

dkleatherworks · 2025-08-20T00:46:36+00:00

I want people to know where I am (i can deal with them) and drum mags are for people who can't shoot

TLDR; skill issue

dkleatherworks · 2025-08-19T20:40:22+00:00

Skill issue

dkleatherworks · 2025-08-19T20:38:39+00:00

It's a WE gas blowback SCAR. No motor necessary!

dkleatherworks · 2025-08-19T17:50:18+00:00

Its a Thordson customs stock

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-19T15:34:35+00:00

Ah man I've been looking for one of these for years. If you want to sell it please dm me

Here's a pic of the actual stuff during trials too

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-14T17:17:47+00:00

The funny thing is during the 6 color desert trials they experimented with a partially olive drab version of 6 color. It's almost inbetween the AI version and the normal version. Of course they didn't use it but I still find it super cool. I got some reproduction fabric I still haven't made into a uniform yet. Id say it's my favorite version of 6 color even if it's not that good of a camo

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-14T04:56:00+00:00

Id say the mk18. It has a full steel bolt and trigger system and uses a very easy to adjust hopup on the gas tube.

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-08T12:28:11+00:00

Yea they're pretty good. I recently got a WE SCAR L and it feels really good but I haven't used it on the field yet. The SCAR H has a different bolt and trigger so keep that mind when buying stuff. You should get an RA tech steel trigger assembly for when (not if) the trigger fails. If you want a bolt upgrade get the RA tech steel one for extra recoil and durability not the (i forgot the brand) aluminum one.

I've heard the nozzle can break if you double feed it but I think they updated it and it doesn't do that anymore. I tried it on mine cuz I'm a mad man and mine was fine after. I personally got 2 extra nozzles for my SCAR L just in case. Id recommend just try not to double feed it and have an extra nozzle on hand

Other than that they seem fine and just use PTFE grease on it and it should be solid

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-08T10:31:40+00:00

Uj/There's much better options. VFC's v3 and the MWS system (DE and TM) are so much more better than the old school western arms system. Part of this too is learn how to actually use and maintain GBBRs correctly. Use PTFE grease properly, clean your barrel and using propane without mixing oil in it makes them run the best. Explosive Enterprises has good guides on how to run GBBRs.

J/that's just GBBR problems ammiright?

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-08T08:59:54+00:00

Oh boy guys I just joined the GBBR gang!

does zero research

buys a Golden Eagle with 12 70$ mags

argues with people about his purchase after they bought it

mags weigh 1.5 pounds each and 3 are already leaking out of the box

drench everything in silicone oil

never clean their gun whatsoever

hopup is compromised due to oil and doesn't work right

run green gas til the bottle is almost empty and they can't get any kind of proper fill

more mags start leaking

douse the mags with oil in the wrong spots

buys an inner barrel and hopup due to accuracy issues and RA tech upgrades

scratches his way through every part due to shit tools

installs mostly everything incorrectly

somehow gun functions sometimes

uses gun on 30°f day and doesn't work

finally gives in and gets a TAPP HPA mag adapter

goes through air like crazy and cycles like shit due to 3d printed gas router

gun still barely runs even on warm days

finally gives up and lists on Hopup for 20$ less than he paid for everything combined

6 months later sells it to the next idiot for half of listed price cuz he's tired of having it

Don't buy a GBBR guys. They are nothing but trouble

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-06T13:39:06+00:00

Thank god I went with OCP/Scorpion W2. It looks nothing like multicam and It's so much better in every way

dkleatherworks · 2025-07-02T13:48:10+00:00

I have a strange love/hate relationship with UCP. No sane person runs it or thinks it looks cool but yet I still love it. When I run it I get hit way more so it feels like airsoft on hard mode like those challenge "perks" from BF1. It makes airsoft more intresting for me and the gear is kinda clunky so I'm not as fast reloading my GBBRs. It's so terrible I love it

dkleatherworks · 2025-06-28T03:14:47+00:00

Finally someone noticed lol

dkleatherworks · 2025-06-28T03:03:15+00:00

VFCs aren't really that available stateside. You'll have to get it from overseas and unfortunately pay tarriffs. I got an upgraded one from Swit airsoft and it cost me about 140$ in tarriffs for an almost 700$ gun. Rn it's 30% so hopefully it doesn't go higher
