The official questions thread. V. HELP WHAT BUY - General

WD-40 is ok if it is 100% silicon. Usually there's other shit in there that is bad for seals. [img]http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2008/10/19/seal10.jpg[/img]

Hey, I have a TM M14, and whenever I attempt to do a "rapid fire" trigger pull on semi, the fuse blows. What could be the reason for this? (It doesn't blow when it's on automatic.)

Maybe one of the wires is shorting somewhere. Checking the wiring to and from the gearbox, and check the wires in your battery too.

According to this site all the gear on this page is MTP but I think it looks closer to regular Multicam. What does everyone else think? [url]http://www.militarymart.co.uk/clothing/multi-terrain-pattern/cat_107.html[/url]

[QUOTE=xXEnder007Xx;26533231]It's Multicam.[/QUOTE] Don't you just love false advertising?

I like how the RAP4 site calls Multicam "8-Color Desert Camo".

i was going to get a 11.1v lipo battery for my KWA g36c, and wondered what i would need to ENSURE that i wouldnt need to check on the charging every 5-15 mins without risking a fireball. would i just need a lipo smart charger? or would i need a balance charger? im kind of confused because a site that i went to yesterday said you needed both a balance charger AND a smart charger. im really confused and a little clarification would be nice.

my dad has 1 of those sexy safe super smart chargers il ask him aboot it 4 yaa

What is the best website for Vietnam era stuff on the cheap? I was looking at Moore Militaria, I need some original 3rd pat jungle fatigues to start my 'Nam loadout, but they don't have any in my size :( only repro, and the reproductions are expensive kinda

All the ones I know of, even the cheap ones turn off when they're done charging.

awesome. suggest any bundles i could use that are cheapy? i dont want to spend 150$ on a battery and seperate charger from asgi. i think any sizes are ok, seeing as the KWA g36 has an enormous hand guard.

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;26529661]I can use WD-40 instead of Silicon right? I mean, they use it for real guns so why not Airsoft?[/QUOTE] HELL NO. But really, it [I]will[/I] royally fuck up your gun if you use anything but pure silicon. I don't mean "lol don't use 93% silicon it bad," I mean "WD40 will fucking destroy everything plastic."

What is the best pair of goggles on this site I can get? [url]http://www.kastwayairsoft.com/Departments/Tactical-Gear/Face-ProtectionHeadwear.aspx[/url]

They do. But you also have to consider that Marines and Special Forces use bicycle helmets too. Basically, they only use them for protection incase they fall off the helicopter fast-roping or some dumb shit. They're lighter then ballistic helmets and still provide a platform for NVG's and Headsets. The Marine made one himself for $20 and it looks pretty badass.

They probably are, they also vent better the K-Pots. Like I said, it's just one of those things. So does anyone want to point out which goggles will be the less likely to fog on me?

Revisions are crazy good for not ever fogging. I wore mine for hours on end, and not even a little bit of fog.

[QUOTE=Dark Descent;26536048]mainemilitary.com[/QUOTE] Can't find any Vietnam era fatigues there. Am I looking in the wrong place or...?

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;26536582] So does anyone want to point out which goggles will be the less likely to fog on me?[/QUOTE] ESS Turbofans will never fog. EVER. I went for a run in my BDUs just to see what would happen, not even any signs of fog if you run the fan on high.

I have a pair of ESS that fog like a bitch anyway. Where can I get Revision?

ASGI sells Revision goggles.

Yeah, but shipping will rape my sideways as it is. I ripped the foam around my ESS goggles out and it seemed to help. With a G&G Turbofan it'd probably be even better. Only problem is the lenses are scratched to hell and back. Revisions are a little out of my price range too.

when my mom realize what ive done.. WITH the whole order m16vn im gonna get shitl ashed buthell it will be worthington :)

I'd say they're worth the investment. Although I'm sure you can find better priced goggles, I don't know if you can find a pair of goggles that'll last you as long. Shit, the Desert Locusts are shotgun-proof. :v:

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;26536763]I have a pair of ESS that fog like a bitch anyway. Where can I get Revision?[/QUOTE] Turbofans bro, fans make ALLLLLL the difference in the world... Dr. freeman...

Except my ESS lens have scratches and all kinds of shit on them that makes it just as bad as fog. I'm starting to get tired of having to order shit online from a million different places, the replacement lense is $20 as it is and they don't even fit over my glasses well, it just pushes them against my face and smudges them to shit.
