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.

Can I use lower pressure gas than the manufacturer recommended?

My GBBR can use 12 kg gas . They wrote on spec. but can I use 9 kg or 10 kg gas on it. Does it make my gun malfunction?

Does this Golden Eagle GBBR come with an anodized or painted MLOK RIS

Just recently picked this up for $100 as a prop and before I waste like an hour of my time, does anyone know if the rail system on this is anodized? I’m planning on baking it to get the more bronze color look and don’t want to waste 1 hour only to realize the rail is painted. TIA.

Can I use maple leaf hummingbird bolt in tws9 gbbr?

The gun uses the wa system and Glock mags, AFAIK the tws9 bolt is standard wa spec. The maple leaf bolt is for ghk. I understand that these are similar. The gas efficiency on my gun isn’t great and I want to try something else. I don’t want to buy knowing I will have to modify it significantly. If this wouldn’t work, would a pdw stock and lighter bolt help?

VFC M110 Parts

Hello, does anyone know where to source a handguard for a VFC M110 SASS/K1/SR25 ECC? Didn't know if contacting VFC directly would be worthwhile, or if someone knew of another retailer/supplier that might be able to help. Any info would be appreciated.

First VFC GBBR

Welp. Here we go. First V3 GBBR I’ve ever bought. Made a few small mods to fit more of what I like as far as the grip and trigger guard go, but excited to see how it performs this weekend.

Did they lie to us?

Reviewing old videos and i found something weird. In the clip, the explainer said that it is(in the video) currently in short-stroke mode, and there would be a long-stroke coversion kit which replaces the buffer with a thin piece of plastic buffer. We can clearly see that there was no extended buffer, which means that it is in what we call nowadays "long-stroke". So, could there be a "longer"-stroke conversion or "full-travel"? Or is it spoken by accident? Or did vfc lie to us?

DE N4 GBBR & GM Pmags

Hi all

Want to go with GM Pmags for my DE N4 and wondering if it's worth purchasing a GM Bolt to go in the RIF - anyone have any experience with the combination and if so what BCG would you recommend?

Cheers

Hpa idea for gbbr

Basically I want to mount a 33gram co2 cartridge hpa system to my gbbr m4. Have it mounted via canted scope rings off the right side of my rifles top rail.

Put a gbbr hpa adapter and run shorty m4 mags. The purpose is to have larger capacity while still being a self contained unit.

Has anyone else done this successfully? The first issue I'm seeing is needing a custom length braided line and securing that to the gun without interfering with controls or ergonomics.

Marrying ghk to vfc- part1

Managed to put a rs upper with ghk internals on a vfc bcm lower. It works well using ghk mags. The vfc fire controls makes this a powerhouse. Only issue is bolt release not working properly. My ultimate goal is to make minimal modding in a build to able to take both ghk and vfc mags.
