PURCHASE ADVICE Does anyone know what brand makes good blowback M9's?

• Upvotes

I want to buy an M9 as my first pistol but I don't know what brand(s) make good ones

It should be blowback, preferably able to use both green gas and co2 and shoot about 1 joule. Otherwise there isnt anything specific I need it to have or be able to do (at least that I can think of)

incase my location affects the options available, I live in denmark

A link or advice would be appreciated but isnt a necessary, I just need to know what brand to buy or more importantly what brands not to buy

New to airsoft. Using a GBBR; is it normal for BB’s to have that little scratch after being fired?

Not reusing them, don’t worry.

friend and i bought beginner pistols for ourselves, both leak gas?

Post image
16 Upvotes

Hi!

We have a tokyo marui p226 and a WE m92 and while firing we noticed that both of them have problems with finishing a mag without leaking empty multiple times.

Could this be a lubrication issue?

edit: to answer your questions

It leaks from the top usually after three to five bbs fired, sometimes you can spot the cloud of gas escaping if u get the timing right.

As for the fire rate we were shooting cans so id say a shot every 5 seconds or so.

The magazines themselves dont leak after filling (nothing audible or smelly atleast) except for the p226 mag during filling.

The gas itself is rated 145 psi greengas and both guns are from shogun (dutch airsoft company).

FIXED: thanks for the advice about how to fill a magazine up correctly and how to tighten the valve it seemingly solved the issue.

GUN PIC Finally got my Double bell Scar-L done.

5 Upvotes

Double Bell Scar-L 803b. I traded a M4 that i didn't use much for this, and got 120€ on top, since this is quite a lot cheaper than said M4.

External quality isn't as bad as people said, ofc i needed to tighten a few screws and use some electric tape to tighten some wobbling parts. The ambi selector switch gets offset sometimes, so i might take the gears away from the right side so that won't happen.

As for the internals i just had installed:

-Solink CNC 1:16 speed gear set.

-an adjustable nozzle (my tech didn't say which brand)

-SHS blue 15 steel tooth piston and piston head

-Gate Aster V2 SX Expert MOSFET, and the quantum trigger that came with it

-4uantumn Hop up bucking and nub

-Shimming and AOE fixed

I use BattleAxe 110rd mid caps, shoots ~1,4J with 0,30g BBs

I feel like i should get a new motor at some point, stock one is ok but nothing special, a new red dot is also something i will probably get. I want something chunkier, since the Scar is a chunky gun, 3,8KG empty, with attachments and fully loaded about 4,5KG, for reference my RK95 TP empty is around 3,5KG and fully loaded 4,2KG.

GUN QUESTION Do EBBR's still suck?

3 Upvotes

I'm looking at getting the LCT AK-12 EBBR after taking a long hiatus from airsoft, but I recall EBBR's generally being pretty disliked and considered bad/unstable guns that fell apart easily. Is this still the case?

I know GBBR's are typically the way to go for the recoil and moving parts, but none of the fields near me do any kind of milsim/GBBR only games and I don't have the disposable funds right now to afford the gun and some extra mags mags for my dream GBBR (the VFC 74M) to make it actually viable in the field due to the low capacity of GBBR mags compared to even a mid-cap AEG.

Is the LCT AK-12 EBB (and EBBR's in general) still considered 'bad' by most airsofters? I'm not a super competitive player so trigger response isn't a huge deal to me, but durability is as I don't want something that'd fall apart after a handful of games.

Spenca Ak74 body compatibility

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm planning an AK-74 build using the Specna Arms CORE J-Series AK-74M as a donor for the receiver/body, folding stock, dust cover, and outer barrel. I'm planning to use a CYMA-style V3 AEG gearbox and want to make sure the parts I'm looking at will fit before I buy everything.

I've seen a few people mention that Specna AKs use similar dimensions to CYMA AKs, but I wanted to ask if anyone has experience with this exact model.

Here are the parts I'm considering:

  • Gearbox: CYMA Version 3 AK AEG gearbox
  • Hop-up: Matrix one-piece metal AK AEG hop-up chamber (CYMA OEM)
  • Upper handguard: LCT CNC Sport Upper Handguard, model ZB-19N
  • Lower handguard: LCT CNC Sport Handguard, model ZB-10L
  • Charging handle: APS reinforced AK-series AEG charging handle
  • Safety/selector: 5KU CNC fire selector for CYMA AK AEG rifles
  • Motor grip: EMG x Strike Industries polymer EPG motor grip
  • Dust cover and outer barrel: Keeping the Specna parts

My main questions are:

  1. Will a CYMA V3 gearbox fit inside the Specna CORE J-Series AK-74M receiver, or are there differences in the mounting points or dimensions?
  2. Will the Matrix/CYMA-style AK hop-up chamber work with the Specna outer barrel and gearbox?
  3. Are the LCT ZB-19N upper handguard and ZB-10L lower handguard compatible with the Specna AK, or would they need modification?
  4. Would the APS charging handle fit the Specna dust cover and charging assembly?
  5. Would the 5KU CYMA AK selector work with the Specna receiver and CYMA gearbox?
  6. Would the EMG x Strike Industries motor grip fit the CYMA V3 gearbox and Specna receiver?
  7. Are there any other parts or compatibility issues I should know about before starting this build?

I'm trying to keep the build reasonably affordable, so I'd rather confirm compatibility before spending money on parts that won't fit.

If anyone has built or modified a Specna CORE J-Series AK, I'd really appreciate any advice, especially from people who have used CYMA or LCT parts on one. Thanks!
