So my G&G CM16 GBB is having some weird issue with the hop-up (Green bucking). If I apply just a tiny bit of hopup it can sometimes overhop like a motherfucker with .25's. If I find the sweet spot where the bb's go straight until they lose energy it still overhops every now and then. Any ideas?

did you apply silicone to the area recently

Yes but it did this before applying silicone.

I'd check for reproductions, but don't be too hopeful.

Check SOF, they make replicas of the M69 and they're based out of the UK [editline]15th September 2013[/editline] [url]http://www.sofmilitary.co.uk/m69-flak-vest-product,14098[/url]

[QUOTE=Vodkavia;42203601]That's a pretty baller flak vest, I want one.[/QUOTE] I'm going to look into getting a real one eventually. It's my favorite part of the nam loadout besides like the buttpack/poncho/machete combo :3

it is because that is a filipino soldier

is the cyma CM035A any good? or is it just pot metal junk? its $190 and appears to be the VFC design

its tm build

I can't believe I'm asking this, but I don't know much about guns :v: While looking down the sights, where should the target be if I wanted the closest thing to a bullseye when the bullet has no drop? [img]http://i.imgur.com/NQVwaiv.png[/img] The Red zone or the blue zone? this is assuming that the sights have not been adjusted

[QUOTE=Rageblood;42208457][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/nt0z3bZ.png[/IMG] The purple is where I aim.[/QUOTE] I think I might go for your technique or the red. Reason why im asking is because I saw this image on facepunch a while back [t]http://i.imgur.com/7UhQ9Oo.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=upsideonion;42207722]is the cyma CM035A any good? or is it just pot metal junk? its $190 and appears to be the VFC design[/QUOTE] I'm selling one for $70 dorra buy mine

I always interpreted sights, if correctly adjusted, as hitting the very tip of the front post.

[QUOTE=BBOOBBYY!;42175187]Sure if you don't feel like using your rails at all. Try putting some electrical tape inside the rail covers, so they push against the rails more and lock themselves in place with friction.[/QUOTE] I ended up drilling a hole on the rail cover and using a screw to lock it in place :v:

valve knocker spring

just to make sure when you pull the trigger does the slide go all the way back or less

ASGI is sending me a free bag of Lancer Tactical BBs with my AK, any idea of the quality of these? I've heard pretty much nothing but bad things about Lancer Tactical's guns and gear, but nothing about their BBs.

BBs are BBs, they couldn't have fucked them up as bad as their other stuff.

Reminds me of a friend who custom ordered water filled pellets. They were just regular pellets split in half, drilled, filled with water, and glued back together. He tried it on his less pricy CO2 gun and the presure made the pellets explode and lightly spray mist

yeah that's valve knocker spring for sure [editline]16th September 2013[/editline] was your hammer sometimes not resetting too

Are Javelin M4s decent? Someone's selling a full metal Javelin M4 with EBB disabled for $150 and I'm not sure if I should go for it.

[QUOTE=Fish Muffin;42210631]I always interpreted sights, if correctly adjusted, as hitting the very tip of the front post.[/QUOTE] pretty much that diagram is practically saying correct sight picture.... if your gun is zero'd out to 1000 meters and the target is 50 meters in front of you
