    There are a number of things that fail on that JG AK but the biggest one has to be using a 47 milled receiver with it's sloped stock tang and short 47 stock. It throws the balance of a long rifle off completely. A stamped receiver with the 74 skeleton stock would improve it a lot. Not that I'd be touching it anyway ;)

    You can put it that way, but you could also say its complete B*llocks. :)

    Rumor : AKMS and Galil conversion kits coming soon, ETA. august and october

    Original Source : http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=150691
    I just spoke to Fung (the guy who runs gunnerairsoft.com) on MSN. I wanted to add an M4 stock to my order and he is giving me one for free! My M60 is not in stock (ordered it 2 days ago) so, instead of shipping it out next tuesday, he's getting one from a friend's shop and shipping it this saturday. If that's not good customer service, I dont know what is.

    OK, lets cut to the cheese: Danmu (who, as far as I know, only make conversion kits for AK and AK accesories) are bringing out an AKMS and a Galil conversion kit, ALL STEEL and real wood.

    Estimated arrival at Gunner's is late august for the AKMS and october for the Galil.

    Price: Fung estimates 185$ for the Galil and a bit cheaper for the AKMS. Just guestimations.

    If these conversion kits are like the other Danmu kits, you will only need a gearbox with motor, a hop up unit and an inner barrel. Using Cyma and Element parts, the total should be around 235$ plus shipping.

    Just got my TM 1911 MEU off redwolf today puding. preordered it straight away after i saw yout post last week. 7 days to deliver is pretty impressive as i think it was only realeased the 13th.
    First impressions of it are very good, i'm lucky i got an extra mag along with it because i can't stop firing it:D.
    I'll try and post a review of it in the next few weeks. keep up the good work puding!!

    Hi All,

    After the negotiation with my dealer, we will come again for retail !!!! But the price of 20 items (mainly G&P items ) are increased around 10 %. We will restart today later time.

    For the client i sent them package late last week, do not worry, my special offer will late you feel happy again :)

    regards

    Paul

    Some will be over the moon at this other will not be bothered, i just find it strange after having to close due to issues with suppliers and prices he can come back and only raise the price of 20 items :rolleyes: or maybe its just my suspicious mind......'know where did i put my tin foil hat'

    Arrrggg i just got myself a box of KA mids for my Spr, iv no idea if their going to feed as badly as some reviews would have you believe but i would have went for the Mag brand in a heart beat if they were out a few weeks ago :mad:

    second time this has happened to me, i splashed out on Tm Aug lowcaps a few weeks before King Arms decide to release cheap midcaps.

    Thats why you make one! Well, I did, but its only basic at the moment. The sirens ok, but could be louder. Also, have to wire in the tilt swtiches to stop anybody moving it. I have a huge siren but its got too big a drain and wont fit in the casing. Pity.

    have to agree there, something i've been working on for down in cork as well, not really this design but same kind of function, nothing beats interactive props, was working on a fun design with a number of wires and people have to run the right one :) of course the information about what one to cut just happens to be on one of the opposition :P and you don;t want to run the wrong wire.......
    That INOKATSU M16VN has epic win written all over it

    the complete INOKATSU MTW line looks brilliant, im waiting with baited breath for information on the mags thought, nothing other than that they can run on 123a/greengas or co2, i want to know will that be two different mags, will it be regulated co2 (please be regulated co2, so many questions, i already have some cash set aside for one of the mtw line depending on this information information :)

    just got a message from redwolf. someone here was interested in these before

    this is the gas charger that looks like a flash bang

    description from redwolf
    It allows you to charge Top Gas / Marui 134a into the TD distraction device, and then carry it around with you on your vest during skimishes. When it comes time to recharge your gas pistol, simply use this device to fill up your gas magazines! This cannister is easily rechargeable through its own valve on the bottom! This is the coolest idea for gas pistol lovers yet! One fully charged cannister is enough to completely refill 3-10 gas pistol magazines in the field (depending on size of your magazine). Highly recommended as the best accessory of the year. User tested and recommended! MSRP USD 50, our price USD 39.8

    Yeah, thanks falls, looked at them ages ago but forgot. Handy for larger games to remove the need to treck back to the SZ.

    It seems the shipping is due to the olympics. Factories are are closed to reduce the pollution, leaving the logistics company sitting there with nothing to do. Thats how retailers can afford to offer free shipping, Redwolf are doing this on 4 AEG packages.
