The Official Questions Thread Version: "Charlies in the trees, what do I need to get rid of them?" - General

You can find G&G MP5's on other sites. They're probably the best ones you can get in Canada besides the VFC ones.

Okay, so I think I'm sold on an A&K PKM. From what I've read, the stock gearbox has really poor compression due to an oversized cylinder, and benefits a lot from a better one. I was thinking I'd order a VFC cylinder and cylinder head, and replace the motor with a high-torque I already have. Anyone who has one want to share some insight regarding internal upgrades? Is there anything else I need?

How easy is it to come by M90 jackets in Sweden? They're fucking expensive here. [editline]21st October 2014[/editline] Also how the fuck does swedish sizing even work.

Does the stock hop-up bucking work? And should I replace the cylinder/head or is the air nozzle more the problem?

yeah the stock hopup actually functions, which was a huge surprise given that it's the [del]good old[/del] vertical nub type all the compression parts are pretty subpar, being stock A&K and all [editline]21st October 2014[/editline] though i was actually managing at least 400 with the stock parts (not with any degree of real consistency though)

I'm looking at the ASG CZ P09 duty, and I decided I want it. Only problem is, I want the version you can only get from Hong Kong (cheaper, better trademarks, includes a carrying case, no orange tip). Anyone know what the most reliable site is for getting these past customs?

Does anybody know the best place to get a dcent e14mm CCW suppressor within my price range of about £25, give or take? Wanted one to fit to my CM16.

[QUOTE=Lt. Munch;46306166]You wont be disappointed friend, the PKM is easily the best gun i have ever owned.[/QUOTE] I am so excited for it to arrive, I just hope Evike doesn't find some way to fuck it up. Barring that possibility, my last hurdle for the moment is figuring out dummy belts. I did some research and found that dummies are stupidly expensive, so I was thinking I might just buy [url=http://www.clearviewinvest.com/surplusmaximmgammocanwithbelt.aspx]a hundred round belt[/url] and [url=http://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/product/productId/17249]loose bullets[/url], then use my few dozen spent 7.62x54R cases that I hung onto for some reason (???) to make my own dummies. If you know of any better option I'm all ears.

nvm i'm dumb lol!

What's a good price to sell a TM M3 Super 90 trishot with both a Benelli retractable and TM fixed stock?

[editline]21st October 2014[/editline] Also how the fuck does swedish sizing even work.[/QUOTE] You can find them almost literally fucking everywhere. A set of repros can cost you like 30 bux and a set of issued ones can cost you about 120. And quite honestly, not even I know how swedish sizing works. Pants might use waist circumference - leg length in inches, and if you're a tall one you add a 1 before the leg length for an extra 10,cm/3 inches, which makes no sense.

I can only find one on eBay and the seller wants $100 plus $25 shipping for the jacket alone, which I would be perfectly okay to pay if I could figure out if the goddamn thing would fit me but fuck you guys have created the world's least straightforward sizing system :suicide:

What's the size? I can look around and figure it out.

While we're on the topic of sizing, can anyone explain Russian sizing to me? Like, what's the Russian equivalent of large regular? And where can I find a replacement G36 magwell that isn't the M4 mag conversion?

[img]http://puu.sh/cnt39/111148e6a9.png[/img] echojuan proshop has magwells

Has anyone had any experience with the evike monster high torque motor? I think it's cheaper than other high torque motors and does the same job.

[QUOTE=GREN EYGS N HAM;46309575]What's the size? I can look around and figure it out.[/QUOTE] Here's the tag. So confused. [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/mFqJxxg.jpg[/thumb] [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] I guess that's trying to say it fits someone 175-180cm tall? But where is the width measured from wtf [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] Oh swag I'm 180cm tall if the weird circumference measurement works out I'm buying the shit out of this thing. [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] I'd say it's supposed to be measured around the broadest part of the chest, since that seems to be the standard for metric sizing, but 65cm would put it at an XXXS US chest size, which makes absolutely no sense for a soldier 5'10" tall. [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] Apparently "vikt" translates to weight? Sweden does it's size by weight? That's fucked up. Also if that's right then this is a jacket fit for someone 5'10" and 150 pounds aka a shorter slenderman.

I think the width is around your waist. The size 68-70 would be a waist circumference of like 50 inches or more. Yes they issue uniforms for extremely big people.

[editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] But this makes no sense because the weight is 65 kilograms. [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] Holy fuck why can't we just use the S M L XL system..

That's the kind of jacket I'm looking at getting (albeit hopefully a little better fitting). Do you have any knowledge on how warm they are? They look decent, but I can't tell from the pictures.

Okay I found out. They use the weight system because most of our soldiers are about the same shape so they don't bother with the width. Seems like the military is the only ones that use this here, because civvie clothes are measured around the chest and the waist. [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] I have very little knowledge about the jackets themselves, I've felt the fabric and that's about it. They're prolly the same thickness as most other uniforms because if It's cold you put on an M90 sweater underneath it which apparently works wonders accordingly to my friend who's served. [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] Ok this is getting pretty messy. If you're fit/fit-ish and weight about 65 kilos, go for it.

Shit, that is fucking confusing. I'm fit but a little over that, guess I'll keep looking :v:

How much over?

[QUOTE=Zero_X54321;46312483]Has anyone had any experience with the evike monster high torque motor? I think it's cheaper than other high torque motors and does the same job.[/QUOTE] I've heard nothing but good things about it

[QUOTE=GREN EYGS N HAM;46313549]How much over?[/QUOTE] I weigh 72kg, so prolly a bit too much? Maybe not, I've never seen one of the jackets

okay guys, so I'm I'm 6'2" with a 34" waist and I need some gen2 or gen3 combats. I'm looking at the emerson ones on shootercbgear, but they say that theyre for people up to 5'11" are these measurements accurate? Are any of you guys tall people with emerson combats? should I get a different brand? I plan on ordering some in the next day or two.

You'll probably have to get real cryes. You'd need size 32L in real cryes because they run a bit large. The tmc emerson and allwin(I think) repros are all Asian sized. And I don't know if any repros come in long sizes. People who are 6 feet and above are supposed to wear long but I'm 6 feet even and can just barely get away with wearing regular length in pants. [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] TLDR: emerson a wont fit [editline]23rd October 2014[/editline] Actually I know a guy taller than me with aor2 emersons that has them and I think he just got a size larger. I'm gonna try and ask him to make sure.

the emerson XL fits me (im around 5'6") but they also somehow fix my 6' friend. although the waist is far too loose for him

awww shit, I can't afford real cryes! Let me know what the guy says please.
