WE Scar GBB Queries

TheDoc

Sorry if a thread is already up on this, couldnt find on search.

Got myself a WE GBB Scar over the weekend. Initial feelings are, yes, I love it. After the dissapointment of the AGM M4 this is such a big jump, the range on it is good, the kick is quality. I have however two questions.

With the gun came a gas mag. Its fine, struggles to let loose the full capacity of bb's but no problem. I plan to use co2 strictly. However I got handed a few co2 mags over the weekend, from WE m4 guns, and found the whole mag would vent through the rifle every half mag.

Was wondering is there a difference between the mags from M4's or Scars or does my new scar have a problem. Wondering if theres like some difference or something

Lastly the forward body pin is very loose. It seems standard with all of them, and im wondering is there a better replacement pin to be safe, or am I sticking with the tape. Came defo see it coming out ingame.

Cheers in advance

for spares the airsoft buddy shop is normaly a good place to look will try and see if i can dig up the url

with the mags, yes there is a differance between the m4 and scar mags, there is a differance in how high it sits in the scar, the m4 are slightly to low as far as i can remember resulting in the venting you experianced, arnies have a good thread on the we scar which cover the mag issue

Not sure about CO2 mags Doc, but with green gas I can say (after the fiasco yesterday) that the m4/scar mags fire at exactly the same fps - my problems yesterday were with getting the npas set right, not mags or gas issues. I know Richie has mentioned a small difference in the mags (about 1mm I think on the seal at the top), but tbh it hasn't given me any bother yet.

How're you finding the hop? I gave up yesterday because I could see that my rounds were going every which way so that even if I got the npas set right I didn't see the point of going on when I'd a perfectly good magpul sitting in the boot of the car.

Agreed though - vast improvement on the agm stock.

It tends to spin off to the right, but that seems to happen with any gas gun I fire.

Its pretty accurate to a point then goes wild off to the right, ill look into it.

Well impressed with the range though to a certian point before it spins off like mad

Cant help notice that when I'm looking at shops that sell the mags, they all state that the mags are

WE Scar/M4 mags.

From a thorough search last night and from some helpful pms, it does seem there is a difference in the two. The slightly different M4 variants causing them to vent , whilst the Scar ones at a different size will be perfect.

Dont want to splash out on mags to find they just vent, but cant seem to find specific Scar mags : /
