The official questions Thread v. NOT ANOTHER AR!!!11ONEONE!!! - General

[QUOTE=smallfry;29546776]Some people like having the extra space to stick an optic on with a magnifier behind it: [img_thumb]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f191/Artood2s/Airsoft/ACM/Eotech%20Round%20Magnifier/E-3xR.jpg[/img_thumb] Another popular use for the rail space is adding flip-up iron sights to the front and rear rails. One of my annoyances with the AR platform is the intrusive fixed front sight on the gas block - with flip-up iron sights ([url=http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100210011049/wikimag/images/f/f9/FN_SCAR-L.jpg]like those found on a standard SCAR[/url]), you can just keep them down and out-of-the-way while using an optic and flip them back up if your optic dies or shatters.[/QUOTE] That doesn't show what I am talking about. On the top the thing goes over my rails already and stacks on top for no reason.

[QUOTE=FreddiRox!;29544361]Can someone link me to a cheapish helmet? Preferably a Russian model because I am going to write well known phrases in Russian on the cover. [img_thumb]http://www.planetwaves.net/artwork/vietnam_helmet.jpg[/img_thumb] Like a Vietnam helmet, but in Russian.[/QUOTE] Get the russian M40 helmet your local surplus store might have some, mine has like 40

[QUOTE=xxncxx;29549310]That doesn't show what I am talking about. On the top the thing goes over my rails already and stacks on top for no reason.[/QUOTE] Oh, I see. They do that in order to keep the rail height consistent across the whole gun -you probably wouldn't want a front sight about a centimeter higher up than a rear sight. I would be willing to bet that the extra portion can be detached if your rail already matches up with the height of the front rails. :unsmith:

[url]http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?products_id=29718[/url] Is this good or should I get a battery and PEQ box seperate?

I have an M203 grenade launcher mounted on my KWA SR10, but I have a problem. The trigger guard doesn't stay up because it doesn't catch the little lip on the magwell, because the grenade launcher does not sit close enough to the lower receiver to do so. How do I make the trigger guard stay up?

Best tbb for a Combat Machine M4A1?

[QUOTE=Psycoace2;29558407]Best tbb for a Combat Machine M4A1? The length is ~357mm.[/QUOTE] Anything besides JBU or Systema. Madbull, EdGi, Prometheus, Element, or ASGI should work.

My airsoft gun won't shoot more than one BB at a time and I've tested two magazines, one of which has now been stuck in it and won't come out. When I pull the magazine out it drops like 5-10 BB's and its done this with two of them. How might I fix this?

To get the magazine out, I'd say try wrapping it in a cloth (so as not to apply too much pressure to one area) and give it a good yank. Should pop right out. Onto the main problem at hand, though. Your receiver's jammed. I'd recommend putting a little bit of silicon lubricant on some paper towel, wrap that [b]tightly[/b] around the cleaning rod which should have come with your gun, and cleaning out the barrel and the receiver. If the jamming still persists, check if your BB's are solid plastic or if they have more of a chalky consistency. If the latter, throw them away immediately. Pictures and more details help tremendously.

I'm thinking of getting this, good deal? [url]http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?products_id=33680[/url] I'm also thinking of getting a shemagh, but I'm not sure what color to get. Mostly its for neck protection.

That brassguard is good. I'd get the last shemagh.

It will piss off the refs to no end.

Try getting one of the brassgaurds off of Airsoft-Club, if you want that same shape, but with two straps instead of one. Mine's essentially what you have picked out, but with two straps and I love it.

Refs were made to be pissed off, Kawaii.

Also, help what buy: 55 bucks. CADPAT or Something else? [editline]2nd May 2011[/editline] fucking automerge

Is weaponblender a reputable site? I'm really liking the prices they list for their RDSs over ASGi and evike.

[QUOTE=64k1;29580757]Is weaponblender a reputable site? I'm really liking the prices they list for their RDSs over ASGi and evike.[/QUOTE] I've ordered from them a bunch of times.

Awesome. Have a wrench.

That's the one I have, it costed me about 25 dollars shipped.

As for pulling the mag out, What do you mean by cloth, can I just use something that I can tighten and will have a grip?

I hear systema's aftermarket parts aren't so great.

[QUOTE=deathmog;29585139]I hear systema's aftermarket parts aren't so great.[/QUOTE] And there was a big scandal last year about chinese companies making imitation systema parts (which are viewed as increasingly worse anyway) and selling them as the real thing, I'm sure the fake parts don't/didn't help their reputation.
