How to Maintain and Clean a Pistol


Before handling an airsoft gun or real firearm... remember, and remind those around you

-Treat all guns as if they are loaded.

-Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.

-Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.

-Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.

Question about mp5 claw mount

Hey so I'm running a vfc umarex mp5sd3 gbbr. I've attached a picture of it, hopefully it works! I bought a claw mount off Amazon but it didn't fit so I'm wondering if you guys know of any specific claw mounts that would fit this type of upper body?

Parts compatibility with G27 and G17

Looking to build up a G17.

I have an old KJ G27 that I want to source the lower parts from, will the Hammer assembly, trigger+bar, frame rails work with a G17 frame and slide?

Hi, I installed the Ra Tech we g39 Trigger Assembly. At first semi-only didn't work. Removing the Valve Locker fixed it. I also removed all those other parts, g36 works perfectly fine in semi and auto. What's the purpose of the valve locker and all those other parts then?

VFC BCM MCMR a good choice?

Is this a reliable AR and worth the cost? I've heard they are basically 2nd best next to a TM MWS. Is it worth the price? (RedWolf's shipping is about $100, so it's technically $450.)

Noveske N4 worth the price?

Are the Noveske N4s worth their price? Should I get a VFC BCM instead, or are they both good options?

Pmx hammer breaking after 5 month

Hi everyone, Im honesly posting this because a friend advised me to.

It all started last april, 5 month after buying it, I try shooting, the bolt goes back and then get stuck halfway in, unmounting it, I see what you can see in photo 1. The hammer is broke in a very wierd way...

https://preview.redd.it/daj91ppvm34e1.jpg?width=1078&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=371cd1af62ce5f04b1e2c622ab3280b28b1291c2

First thinking is because I used gas with too much presure (145psi). I call for the store to put it in the sav and I told them that it might be because of the gas, they tell me it wont be taken by warranty and the parts are not produced separatly. So I search for spare part on my own and could not find any... I loved this replica so much that I was convinced they would get the spare but in the meantime i wanted it back so badly that I..... bought another one, please dont judge =P

After a while of playing with the second one, I get today (5 month after getting it) the exact same issue, on photo 2 you can see the hammer is broken the exact same way and I found the missing part this time. (Photo 3)

Its literaly a part of the hammer locked by a spring inside the system.

So the gas i used was standard in France, classic good ultrair without silicon. It doesnt seemed to be an issue, I was wondering if any had the same experience, I just asked the store if they could this time send it back to the manufacturer, if anyone knows how it happend Id be glad just to not reproduce it a third time...

Thanks for reading. Hoping to have responses from the store asap, I'll post if I get any information in the meantime.

Mock suppressor/muzzle flash simulator recommendations

Just picked up a BCM MCMR. Looking to get a nice mock suppressor/tracer/muzzle flash simulator. From my research, the acetech blaster is probably the best simulated muzzle flash. Looking for help finding a good option that looks a bit more RS looking than what I am seeing with these acetech blasters. Right now I think the best option is the predator mk11. Anyone got any suggestions other than this? Or if you have the predator MK11 how has it been for you?

Vfc Glock 17 V4 Help

I may habe the answer already, but i wanna verify before i Buy.

There is no spring behind the nozzle, so thats probably the only reason it doesnt feed and stays forward right.

And do i just need a new slide catch?
