    Just wondering is there any way to get parts for a specific AEG like O rings, captive pins etc.. ?

    Can they be got from the manufacturer, or would you need to buy another of the same AEG to take parts from it.

    I'm not talking about hopup units or gear boxes, just parts like O rings and captive pins and guide rods etc, as they are not exactly off the shelf parts.

    HRTA, while no bodys looking.. :p

    O rings are very off the shelf, I wouldn't be surprised if Maplins stocked them.

    Tough one, just contact as many retailers as you can, they are able to order in parts from manufacturers.

    Or if you can contact the manufacturer yourself do.

    O-rings are commonly available in lots of places, airsofts use a particular size.

    Somebody on here mentioned it before here so hopefully they'll answer you.

    I'm not stuck or anything it's a just in case type of thing. I've had a few near misses in the past few days where various parts are dropping out of places and springing out, most of the time I'm not 100% where they came out or how they go back in. And I've managed to make a few captive pins non captive.:eek:

    I'm just lucky I'm finding them on the floor.:o

    WGC, RSOV or UNcompany have parts, i don't know what as i never pay much attention but they do some bits anyway...What do you need em for?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kdouglas


    wgc or uncompany i find are the best for obscure parts like pins and such

    o-rings you should be able to get in your local hardware or plumbing suppliers

    i tried a load of places for the O rings but didnt find them, its 25mm for the piston ring if you can find anywhere that stocks them.,

    I have a few half-cannibalised clone guns (Army AK, Cyma AK, DBoys M4, DE UMP, Galaxy MP5, ) knocking about if anyone needs parts, free of charge as long as nobody gets greedy :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kdouglas

    just kidding, but seriously, that's very generous, thank you, no doubt ill pester you for some difficult to find spares at some point :)

    RSOV shipping is very steep. Wanted a few bits including a metal body for my dboys M4 and shipping was nearly 50 euro!

    dont suppose youd have a fire selector for an M4 T? oh and a piston ring/o Ring thingybob?

    Why, I do believe I do.
    If I get a chance to liberate them, I'll bring them on Saturday.
    PM me tomorrow night to remind me.

    Yep. If I have room in the car I'll bring all the bits I have and store them in my container.

    if you want to bring down whatever you have that is for spares, i'll disassemble them and bring down one of those little drawer thingys for storing screws and such to store all the bits in

    Y'know...theres a very good chance Bessie is going to get a chance to spread the 6 mill love :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭Shiva


    Good idea Keith...I'll do that.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 8,679 Mod ✭✭✭✭Rew


    Iv buggered up the spring that retuns the cocking handle to its place on a dboys m4, its not a big deal but if there was one knocking about...

    Any chance I could get the Delta ring from that M4?

    EDIT: actually, if you don't think I'm being too greedy, I'll take the barrel as well. I'm trying to fit an RIS to my JG M4, but its a bit awkward seeing as it was made for a dboys

    Anyone have a G36C rail and V3 gearbox they don't need? lol


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    alvin T grey replaced his G36c rail on his CA, he might sell that one zero., the standard rail is boring though, go for the one with the scope, its brilliant..,

    PS, ill take any free large sums of money if anyone has any lying around.,;),.lol.,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19


    Ah ok, i've heard the eye relief on those scope/carry handles aint the best mind you! Also i didn't win the lotto so no free AEG's lol


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19
