Classic Army M14 EBR

    Brand new CA M14 EBR Scout. This is a re-advertised gun from a few weeks back. Bought this gun from Go-Tactical in around 400 euro. Took it out for the first time 3 weeks ago to Redbarn. After the first few shots the gun wasn't shooting any BBs' even the motor was turning. Took it to my usual expert repair man and was told the tappet plate broke. He suspected the reason was because I was using too high a voltage/capacity battery which turned the motor too fast. I used a 9.6V, 4400mAh battery that day. I had the battery taped around the front rail. That was not a good idea. I should have used a 8.4V 1600mAh battery instead. This is not a gospel truth as someone else might have a differnt opinion. So all it needs now is a new tappet plate - specifically a Guarder Enhanced version 7 polycarbonate tappet plate which you can buy from the states (empireairsofr.com)for $12.00. It will cost you roughly 40 euro to get someone to put it in for you unless you can do it yourself. I am selling the gun for 250 euro with no offers. It has a Madbull blue hop-up as an upgrade already. Great bargain for someone who can fix their own guns! I have lost interest in this gun and hence, for the sale.

    "even the motor was turning"

    So 100% is not just tappet plate!
    Any scratch on the gun?

    150 euro is too low I am afraid even if it's going to cost you 80-100 euro to get this gun back in order. Phone around to see what this gun is worth brand new then you will see 250 isn't dear. My friend who is the expert repair man who does a lot of work for private individuals and shops as well has the gun now with the gear box stripped. He is waiting for me to buy the tappet plate. Once he gets it he will put it back together. The fee for him will be no more than 50 euro. The tappet plate like I said is 12-15 dollars from evike.com and not empireairsoft as I previously stated. It took me a few phone calls and emails to track down the proper plate.

    offer stands mate. 150!!! gun was 400 brand new.
    150 price of the gun and 80 to 100 for repairs. works out 250.
    you be hardly selling a M14 in a good working order with no a faults at 220. say 220 be pushing it too. but anyways 150 is my offer, and it stand let me know if it didnt sell and wanted to consider my offer.

    I am 100% sure it is just the tappet plate. I can give you my repair man's phone number via PM and you can talk to him yourself. It is a brand new gun with not even a finger nail scratch on it because it has never been skirmished-well almost. Yes I will give you a brand new 9.6 V 3700mAh battery worth 30 euro which I bought from England with the gun and also 3 magazines which are brand new and cost £25 sterling each I bought from airsoftworld.net from Scotland. If you buy the tappet plate from evike.com in california and give it to Mr S.C. (repair man) he can finish the job for you. Or you can do it yourself if you are handy with a gun and save yourself40-50 euro. The three mags are hicap mags which hold around 400 BBs. 3 mags are enough for a game.
    Lastly, I can't ship to Cork unless you are welling to pay the shipping cost yourself. It is a heavy gun as you know. I would prefer to exchange cash and gun in person. If you really want the gun I can put it aside for you until you come to Dublin in the near future. I am in no hurry to sell the gun because I don't need the money desperately. I do need funding to buy a custom made gun which cost in the region of 700 euro !! But that can wait. Good things come to those who wait as they say !!

    200 it is then. I just spoke to my repair man and told him someone might be interested in buying the gun in the next few days. He will give you the gun with the gears stripped as you will need to put in a tappet plate. If he puts it back together he will charge me 50 euro rather than 20 euro which I still owe him for this gun. Besides, it will save you time because you will have to strip it again. I think I threw out the original box this gun came in but I may have another box from another gun which I can use to ship this heavy gun to you. It weighs around 5.4Kg.
    I will give you a brand new 9.6V 3700mAh battery and 3 mags as promised. You have got yourself a bargain I think !! PM me with your details and I will respond in kind. I will let you know the postal fee. If it is too much and you decide to change your mind, I won't hold that against you. It's a free world afterall !!
