This is my first VT, a Colt Model 723 that i believe is an early production model. It comes with A2 upper & a pencil barrel. The trigger pull on this thing is ridiculously satisfying

Review GUNDAY Radian Ramjet on the GHK Glock 45

Thumbnail
gallery
55 Upvotes

Finally got my hands on the gunday ramjet but my first impressions on it werent too good…

I got the aluminum version as my slide is also aluminum and did not expect it to be heavy like the steel version but it is just way too light (the comp + barrel combined is noticably lighter than the stock barrel on its own), I almost thought there wasnt anything in the box when I took delivery of it.

The outer diameter of the barrel itself is also slightly smaller than that of the stock which causes the comp and barrel to wobble more than I’d like it to..

It looks amazing on the gun but I wish they used more material on it to increase the weight and tighter tolerances on the barrel to reduce wobble as the stock GHK has great tolerances relative to GBB pistols..

Does anyone else have the same issues or know any fix?

Gun Pic The WE M14 and MK14 EBR are just so much fun to shoot, and the sound they make is amazing.

Discussion Question: How often do you guys clean out your internals?

7 Upvotes

I mean completely disassemble the whole gun, clean the parts, lubricate and then reassemble. I regularly field strip and clean all my replicas but some of them I've had for a while without actually taking them completely apart and cleaning all the internal mechanisms. Some I've never done it. I was wondering what do you guys do?

Been playing with ChatGPT again, this time it's my VFC XM177E2, changed out the background from my carpet to the one in the picture, I recently bought a genuine Vietnam era 20rnd mag and some deactivated 5.56mm and added them "jungle mag" style, just for when it's hanging on the wall. I hope you like it.

Troubleshooting Can VFC AK series take real AK fire selectors

4 Upvotes

Got too used to those fancy fire selectors, that have place for using shooting hand index finder to switch shootings modes. While VFC does offer one, prices withing EU are quite high for a simple piece of bend steel. So can real AK fire selectors fit?

I have a very old G&P GBBR that doesn't like to shoot. Basically you can get one shot then it dumps all the gas. I've tried different mags and HPA but nothing seems to work and from what I can there's nothing obviously wrong. I'd love to get this thing back up and running so if you have any advice please let me know

Troubleshooting What do I do? VFC AK105

Post image
12 Upvotes

Hello all, back to bug everyone again with another stupid question. What is this spring? And is it seated incorrectly? I feel like at some point something happened and now it’s in the way of the magwell when I put a magazine in. It still functions, and I can get the mag in, but I feel like something isn’t quite right. Should I bend it back into position or will that do more damage? Thank you all in advance.

Discussion Has the Toxicant SOLGW MK1 started shipping to other countries yet?

6 Upvotes

Has anyone received their Toxicant SOLGW MK1 yet? I’ve seen a few people already posting theirs, so I’m curious about the current delivery status in different countries.

I reserved mine at the end of August, and they estimated delivery sometime between October and November. However, there haven’t been any further updates yet.
If you’ve ordered one, please share:

● Your country
● Where you ordered it from
● When you placed your order
● Whether it has shipped or arrived
● Whether your version came with the TAAS trigger system or the standard trigger unit
Just trying to get a clearer picture of the worldwide rollout.

Thanks!
