@@CZGamingTVfrom my educated guess, nearly 1k frame is about 250 on its own, slide is about 120. Depending on other major parts (including the base hicapa) it's gonna be about 1000 easily
Bro. As a gunsmith and a guy who builds airsoft guns for fun. It is super bad to drop the hammer without the slide in. If you are gonna do that you should put your finger on the other side to keep it from bending the frame. Same goes for real steel 1911 and 2011s and many other pistols too
Beautiful build! You forgot to put the other barrel stabiliser on the outer barrel, you put one in the barrel and one on on the other end and sits behind the threads i believe, Im planning on making a hi capa with the jungle cat slide and La capa barrel and you’ve just confirmed that 😂 I love how it all came together in the end. Keep it up 👍
While I detest speedsoft builds, this was informative on troubleshooting my KA(TM Comp) 1911. I have used some gheto shims(screw with a few M3 washers on it) to give more tension to the Hammer spring. I also ordered some 130% Nozzle springs. it's not fully cycling and loading a new round. someone suggested its a power issue and someone else suggested stronger nozzle springs. I should get a little more power with the "shimmed" hammer spring and the nozzle shouldn't get stuck in the hop unit with the better spring.
I heavily recomend lubing your outter barrel. Especially if it's been custom painted. Your paintjob will survive a bit longer and your slide will travel better
It wears because of the original Tokyo marui design that made its way into current parts. There are interlocking lugs on the outer barrel and on the inside of the slide that run during action. On the TM, it didn't matter because they were plastic. Lube will not save you from the wear.
“You dont need lube dripping Down your gun” thank you! Finally someone Else who agrees with me 😂 so Many guys on yt post build videos bathing the gun in lube
I use a high grit buffing compound by 3M for lapping the slide to the frame. It can make the "scratches" look better? It is going to rub the anodizing away either way, nothing you can do about it really. I personally over lap my slides because I KG GunKote my pistols anyway. It leaves me with perfect tolerances and no bare metal after painting. Also, everything is a perfect match color wise after. KG is a self lubricating paint/coating. It is a better product vs CeraKote, IMO.
Building is not my specialty, and I feel ignorant because I have no idea what anyone is talking about when it comes to parts. Thanks for making this vid, is helps.
I really would love to customize my Hi capa with a custom Slide. But the Problem is, theyre literally sold out everywhere. And the few i found are unable to ship to my country.
Once when I get money, I’m getting parts from armsaholic to make a custom marui John Wick Pit Vioer just how it looks in the movie. Thankfully I found this video to help me
great info especially on the detent thing, i hate that and have lost my spring now i cant move my safety nor remove it so annoying.... also why is the 4.3 frame longer then the 5.1, i have a 5.1 and its longer then the 4.3
Really cool video. I´m new to that Airsoft stuff (never played it but it looks very interesting maybe try it one day) and I wanted to ask. What does Hi-Capa mean?
could you elaborate in the Airsoft Masterpiece trigger bar? What advantages would I get from adjusting it? Is it much of a difference from the LA CAPA trigger bar?
This is an awesome pistol! Question, if I were to buy a pre-built one will come with magazines or are they separate? If they are separate what magazine’s do you use?
Have you tried using the purple loctite instead of the blue, much lower bond strength but probably still enough to hold the screws? I’m starting build and am hesitant to use the blue on the hopup chamber screws, and wanted to try the purple instead. It is loctite 222 instead of 243. Nice build btw.
I wanna build one but half the stuff you mentioned I have no idea what they are or how to determine which ones would be best for me, if I ever I meet you in person I’m about to pick your brain about it lol
Love the video. I have a question. I have the same slide you have here, but I have an airsoft masterpiece limcat advanced frame. I didn't have to fit the slide to the frame like you did in this video. It also has the tiniest bit of wobble. My question is: is that ok? Does it need to be super tight?
I dont know for tm but kjw hammer is potmetal i broke mine and i dont play speed only casual airsoft. Tolérance issu was my biggest problem the hammer dont move freely and i dont want to modify à 80buck hammer to fit in a 100buck pistol Your build look so cool, but i dont think investing so much money is worth if the person dont play competition. But it's vers informative
Do back straps come with the grip (for the hammer spring regulator)? CY Capa Customs “Diamond Pattern” Colored Stippled Grip - Red is what I wanted. Am I able to build one without needing a stock TM hi-capa 5.1?
This is a really stupid question but I'm just starting getting into working on my own airsoft guns and modifying my hi capa. Will a simple precision screwdriver set do or are there certain uncommon sizes of bits you have to make sure you get?
I'm working on a Capa right now but I'm having trouble solving one issue. I've assembled everything and it cycles fine when testing manually (without a mag) but any time I try shooting it when it's pressurized it just dumps air. I'm assuming it's something with the BBU, nozzle, or hop unit but I'm not sure what it may be. Have yo7 experienced this and if yes do you know how to fix it?
How do you fix light valve knocker strikes I’ve tried everything I can think of and nothing works I’ve stuck bbs under the hammer spring and it still doesn’t get enough gas to cycle properly
Honestly no idea but whatever I’m doing it’s not working I have an edge nozzle and lacapa HopUp that seals pretty well so I didn’t think that was the issue
I just picked up a EMG/STI JW3 hi capa. What would be your recommendation for outter barrel? I know its technically a 5.4 instead of a 5.1 so i was thinking go ahead with the 6” nine ball barrel you recommend but was wanting to try an go to a outter thread style to run a tracer unit
I have no idea what it would be compatible with for sure, but I think it would be we/aw based. You can't go for a shorter outer barrel and a longer one might look goofy so 🤷
@@ValiantAirsoft I finally got it in hand and appears to use standard hi capa parts, but haven’t torn into it to measure the barrel to be 100% sure. And the only reason I wasn’t to worried about a slightly longer inner barrel is I planned on running a tracer/mock suppressor. Cause I grew up playing paintball and like the idea of seeing where my shots go but also giving it that “movie assassin” look. But was also looking at the nine ball outter barrel so I’ll probably wind up just getting the standard 113mm. I was kinda also thinking the little extra length cause I like to go for longer distance shots alot
Mate for some reason my army Armament r501 doing full auto now but here is the kicker.... the hammer is connecting the to disconnecter, everything is fine but I still don't understand how it jsut doing full auto straight up. I do have a tdc hipup unit in it and the slide catch is extremely tight in it so could that be the problem as its also not locking back and causing it to do full auto
@ValiantAirsoft I thought that too but strangly it's in correctly.... unless the sear trident spring is too weak and that what causes it to full auto but weirdly the full auto isn't your typical speedsoft style it fires like a polarstar in auto mode with full rpm setting and that's not normal at all for a standard r501 I try I different trident spring that is stronger to see if that works
@ValiantAirsoft well I fixed it with the r604 but I think the r501 frame isn't working with nexxspeed tdc hop up unit as the slide catch is way too tight so I have options now..... I can work with the R604 slide with the r501 frame just need to get the fitment sorted and buy a brand new nexspeed tdc hop up as the other is kind modified or buy a new frame for 501 and see if the hopbup unit fits into it better
@@ValiantAirsoft LoL. I just got into airsoft myself a few months back and I've already spent a few chunks myself. I like buying and working on the guns more than using them.
The WE magwell doesn't fit on a stock TM grip. The grip is too wide. It does however fit on the nineball thin grip but there is slight wobble that needs adjusted out.
@@ValiantAirsoft I'd like to see you run it yours too! My mp5 is exactly shooting 340-350 fps with no mods would u still recommend trying it or should I just get a Maple Leaf 70°
For someone who wants to build their first hicapa, do you recommend the gold match, standard 5.1, or the 4.3? I want something to have fun with in pubs. As of right now I am leaning towards the 4.3 but I am worried about not being able to find replacement parts and upgrades.
I love 4.3 but they have less choices for slides and your inner barrel length is limited a bit. I recommend a 5.1 if you want the most variety of aftermarket slides and barrels. I'm iffy on the gold match due to the angled cut at the end of the frame and they sometimes have weird rails. 4.3 and 5.1 share the exact same internals apart from the slide length, barrel length, and the type of rear sight they use.

Gun grease or thicker oil helps hold springs and other micro parts from being lost and keeps it in place… sometimes 😂😂

Nice build ❤
Thank you
33:09 you said upgrading to a 150% for a stock slide will make it last longer, wouldn't that do the opposite by putting more stress on the slide?
Higher spring = less recoil = less impact at the end of travel = less wear imo
