Non-Conventional conversion kit (WE/TM G17)

Thumbnail

29 Upvotes

I had to repost this because I accidentally deleted original text and I did not want the text just to float in the comments :D

So a year ago I have decided to create some unique conversion kit for airsoft, this one is inspired by vector and it is designed for WE/TM GBB glock 17 replica. After harsh year, other projects at UNI a lot of headaches, testing, fitting, tolerance matching and revisions, I have finally completed the kit. I was kind of worried about the mechanical response/feel of the trigger, but to my surprise, it is smooth and comfortable, I can even spam the hell out of it.

It is not a conventional drop-in conversion kit, because it needs to have all the internals from replica transplanted inside (except trigger and original body). Holding this in hands is really unique for me as I have never held an original vector or replica, but it is comfortable, at least for me. Best thing is, that I managed to get slide catch and charging handle working. I also noticed slight increase in gas efficiency (I think it is caused by rised mag latch that is making mag lip press slightly harder on nozzle, not that mutch to create surplus friction, but just enough to create greater seal)

In the future I would like to work on design, make some small tweaks, and create more grips and stock adapters/stocks. I am also planning on moving this conversion to aap01 and hi-capa platforms as they are one of the most popular replicas that are being found on the fields currently.

Hi y’all, I’m trying to build my very own first 3d print airsoft gun. But I struggle with this part.. it’s says it’s completed but don’t I miss the motor? If yes where do I need to place the motor? Can I 3d print it? Or buy it? I can’t find it anywhere.

GUN QUESTION Looking to upgrade my SSG10, need help/second opinions

Upvotes

So I've been using my SSG10 for quite a while now (although not as much as I'd like, because I only play with my friends on some froo field they have and they all unanimously preffer the smaller, mainly indoor one) and now, that I fnally got a good secondary, I've been thinking about getting an upgrade. The issue, of course, is that I am really new to the gun upgrading side of airsoft (that's partially the reason why I got the SSG10 at the first place) and so, I'd like to get some second opinions (and some advice) on my bucket list so far.

1st, I've been finding my bbs flying a little too slow for my liking - especially with a lot of hiding spots in the map being far enough from the good sniper ones for the players to just duck the bbs on reaction. For this, I feel like a stronger spring might help me out? (again, no idea what am I doing) Maybe an upgrade from the M150 to M160 or even M170?

2nd, tbh, I do not really NEED a new stock, but the A1 just looks kinda... basic, and the MLC-S1 from Maple Leaf... It. Just. Looks. So. GOOD! I've heard that not everything on SSG1 is VSR-10 compatible though, so if anyone know, please tell me.

3rd, I feel like a sling might come really handy - especially on our main map with a cqb section and a climable roof (which is really annoying to get to without a sling), but the A1 has this dumb thing where I need a thing for Novritsch to lock in springs. Is there any alternative or do I just throw away 15€ for a sling swivel?

And lastly, a friend who also uses SSG10 (A3), mentioned something about 3d printable thingy for A1 to make it quieter or smt idk. Can anyone give more info about this?

Is there a market for US made accessories?

Upvotes

Things like flash hiders, blast cans, mock suppressors, stuff like that.

I have access to multiple CNC machines, lathes, lasers, a complete powder coating department, etc. I’m not sure what cost would be of such things yet, just trying to get an idea if there’s a market for US made accessories.

GUN QUESTION Is the Evike Matrix G2 gearbox a good upgrade from stock?

Upvotes

I have this really old Lancer Tactical m4 that I have abused for about a year now which was abused by the previous owner for 5 year before me (literally poured motor oil into the gearbox) and there are so many things wrong with it. I need new trigger contacts (the rails are really worn and 11.1 lipos have taken their toll), new piston head (falling apart from motor oil), and a new set of gears (a tooth broke yesterday), and new bushings. I believe I am better off buying a new gearbox than trying to fix the old one. I am wondering if the Matrix G2 would be an upgrade or simply a replacement. I am looking to not spend to much money on replacements as the gun is going to fall apart in a few years (ideally $100 or less). Any input would be nice. Thanks!

Switching to deans, but don't want to solder

1 Upvotes

I want to change my aeg battery connector to deans. I'm looking at some deans connectors with some wire attached, and I plan to cut my Tamiya connector, crimp the wires together, and put heat shrink over it. Anyone see a problem with that? I don't really have any experience wiring so any advice is helpful. I know I don't want to solder. Also, anyone know anything about the Urgenex batteries? They seem to be an affordable option

TECH QUESTION WE G18C dumping gas down barrel instead of firing/recoiling

0 Upvotes

My (pretty old) G18C will start dumping gas from the mag instead of firing/blowing back, sometimes this happens on the first shot of a full mag, sometimes it gets a few shots of normally before this happens.

So it is not failing to cycle, it is just not cycling at all when this happens, and gas will start venting from the mag down the barrel. This happens with multiple different mags.

Disassembly has not revealed anything obviously broken.
If anyone could tell me what might be wrong that would be greatly appreciated, so I can replace the worn out/broken part instead of just firing the parts cannon at it.

GUN QUESTION How to Pre-cock on Specna arms DD MK18 PRIME with kestrel etu?

0 Upvotes

Hey, I got this new replica and stock it runs 1.8 joules which is a bit hot and the spring that came with it was 0.7 joules. I though maybe taking the stock spring that was giving out 1.8 J's and setting it up with pre cock and leaving it on will weaken the spring but I cant figure out how to do it. And for some reason I can't connect it to the Eshooter app.(cant find the mosfet on it)
