Let me explain ... The gas efficiency issue showed in the video occurs to EVERY GBB PISTOLS. Just when you shoot continuously, the gas will cool down, resulting in thermal contraction. That's why there is still a little bit of gas in the magazine. Sorry, but it does happens a lot to the TM ones. It happens to my TM M92F, running with HFC 134a, after much less shots, in Brazil, under very hot climate. Its not a design flaw, just like you said in the video.
I know you don't post airsoft videos anymore but for anyone watching this that cares or just got a hi-capa and needs some tips, it is recommended that you replace your outerbarrel with non-recoiling/fixed outerbarrel and shave down the locking lugs on the slide which can clearly be seen at 12:10. The locking lugs are the 3 raised portions on the slide in the middle. You can see a lot of wear on the third locking lug which will correlate to damage/wear on the outerbarrel. This decreases accuracy, cyclic rate, and slide smoothness.
Just a note on the hold-open thing. I have never seen an airsoft gun that actually has the sling shot feature ( pull back slide and hold-open releases ) at least not by design,On some REAL guns, the slide-stop is actually spring loaded so it will fall back when a fresh mag is inserted ( or mag removed ), There are ways to modify this and get the slingshot feature but are not very clean.
@@RiceQB actually for hold open, the reason you cant powerstroke it is likely to do with a non full travel of the slide. When the slide travels fully back, the notch on the slide catch will be pushed down by the slide. The shorter travel is why you cant powerstroke.

Iam wondering when all this started to happen.I myself have AW hicapa and I will say it's not something I am blown away by but it's proven to be reliable.I purchased with the intention of not needing to upgrade immediately but there's better outta the box options than say 5yr ago
I have the Armorworks Wind velocity hicapa, and I've have it for 2yrs, Nd it is running great. I've HPA tapped it, and it shoots 355 with .25s consistantly
Rice QB The AW is not a WE. You make the mistake that many people do and assume just because the parts are manufactured in a specific factory, they are the same. It is true that AW parts are made in the WE factory, but they are held to a higher standard. If WE doesn’t deliver proper parts, AW won’t take them. It’s like saying „this car from brand X is actually from brand Y, because they make the seats!“
If anything, it's still better than older WE Hi Capas. Probably some newer stuff I have an AW frame and actually, can fit a TM 1911 slide (provided I remove the slide lock rail) It's a bit too tight so recoil is almost non-existent, but it shoots fine surprisingly. Some AW frames and slides are super proprietary so of course compatibility may vary.
Drill and grub screw. You would need to drill a hole through the front part and a small cavity for the grub screw on the rear part. That will prevent rotation and it pulling out.
Hi I actually run a hi capa as well from armorworks and was wondering how do I attach a tracer unit like does the gun already include a threaded barrel or do I need to buy that. My question is how do I install a tracer unit on my HX1101
@EC Productions thanks for watching!, first of all there is a thread in the outer barrel on the front of it. With this thread you will be able to put on all sorts of -14mm attachments. The side with the shorter thread goes in the barrel and the side with the -14mm thread obviously towards the outside. I recommend super gluing the thread into the barrel. Buy this www.evike.com/products/36449/
My AW Black Ace is been running for years and today my slide has just stripped before my event in my home field with my peers and I’ve put a new neon fiber sight which now is going to be replacing the old RDS Plate the gun is been revived 4 times the first was a defect the second lasted longer then most of my friends Tokyo Marui’s and WE-Tech’s I have just revived it for the fourth time as the round count is in the 10,000s it’s now running a CO2 and Black Gas the grip is been replaced and the front post is now running a Frankenstein compensator that makes it laser accurate but it is still working and still firing like it did all those years ago
did a little research, turns out your barrel breaking was a small defect in the milling in a limited number of pistols (from what i found out it was something to do with a couple millimetres of milling to deep at the base of the barrel causing weakness), so yeah, you should really handle it in store before buying unless its from a company that always checks each item befroe shipping
@@RiceQB update, ive been curious, and have over the last year bought a few more, out of 5 i bought, 1 had the issue, so yeah, it seems like a small number of faulty ones still in the wind
@@RiceQB Yeet. I just finished the vid and I also had the same problem where the outer barrel popped out, but that only happened cause I used a c02 mag. But after using super glue it works fine as long as I use green gas.
@Dilly Pickle my outer barrel still doesn’t stay despite applying super glue. Like I said I got a potato not a hicapa. I appreciate you for watching the whole vid! Feel free to comment more if you wish!
Well to be honest, i think you really got a bad lemon there and it does happen sadly. Hope you can give us a try again on our newer Gen pistols or the ones we OEM for EMG ( oh you know like the critically acclaimed Combat master series) which includes some products that are Aluminum or steel frames. Yeah I'm sure you don't get those on TM , and a lot more affordable compared to doing the same treatment on a TM. But hey each to their own, enjoy the hobby how you like is fine.
Armorer Works I would love to try out the newer ones but, I would love to do a review and try it, if I could do it risk free. Other than that, I probably did get a really bad one and did ruin my experience for your guys products.
I see you have a threaded barrel on the gun. Is that a high capa threaded barrel or another brand. I have one on the way and I need to know if my Tokyo Marui barral will for or not. Also great video I liked and subbed
Good Job!, for buying a Tokyo Marui not AW. I have a applied a third party application. I put this on: www.evike.com/products/38008/ There is a thread and you can screw it in for the WE tech and AW pistols. (Super glued to ensure recoil won't unscrew it) Sadly the Tokyo Marui will not have a thread so you will not be able to put a -14mm thread on it, (as stock form) However, you can but you will need to buy a whole new outer barrel with an integrated thread, Make sure it's meant for a Tokyo Marui or it will have compatibility issues. And thanks for the SUB it helps a small channel grow!!
came into the review so hopeful lolll. just grabbed one for $100 with a tm 4.3 otw as backup. gunna try swapping the inner/outer barrels, maybe even grinding down the contacts points on the slide. hammer feels cheap so I added some velcro to dampen the blow. overall NOT expecting much from 100bucks but 170msrp?? cmon AW we all know ur going through we tech who has way more time/passion in the industry
@@RiceQB ok thx. im probably gonna try to upgrade the most relevant parts. at least i think my barrel is not gonna fall apart due to the split slide :S
If you still have that AW Hi capa and the outer barrel and you haven't been able to put it back together then I have the best glue suggestion. Why not use Flex Glue. I also have an AW hi capa and the same thing happened to me. Except the first thing I did was use a tiny bit of flex glue. The glue is really sticky and thick so only use a little bit. You also have to let it dry for a day or two for it to be basically at max strength. I guarantee it only because it worked with me.
The locking up is from the Sears/hammer. They are worn and need to be replaced. I tech on high capas. Gas efficiency can be mistaken by the Sears being worn. I had the same problem. Now fixed. I own both Tm 4.3 and AW. Same problem on both, same solution on both. Trust me! I tech for fun!
@that one guy Andrew yah man I shoved it up the barrel. I put it between the areas of where the slide cycles. In the mag. The rocket valve everywhere and still nothing. I wasted my rice... I could have ate that.
JimiBoi 92 thavks for stopping by! :) I would recommend a TM because despite their plastic slides you can upgrade it and also it work perfectly in stock condition! The slide will break with green gas eventually (heavy use) The aftermarket parts for Tm hicapas are widely available so you can play fearlessly without the concern of not having parts.
I got mine last week and so far it’s beautiful to look at, can easily hit from mid range, and amazes most players with its Full auto (HX2032 model). I’m glad I watched your vid tho now I know what parts to get ahead of time lol

This is what I got www.evike.com/products/36449/ I recommend super gluing it because the blowback can make it come of if you have something on it, the mass of the silencer, tracer, amplifier, can make it come off Plus don’t get AW GET A TOKYO MARUI 🇯🇵
Brooo I got me a tti varient and the hop up unit sucks and the slide and barrel finish sucks too. Durability is horrendous go with Tokyo Marui and I would avoid Aw/We
This pistol looks nice but it truly sucks it’s marketed toward people who want a flashy hi capa. I will admit that the external is nice but, the internals are awful. I purchased this for the looks when I didn’t know what I was doing. It came out of the box and I put half a mag through it and it broke refused to fire. It wasent the mag because I had got serveral. Evikes customer service is great I returned this and got a replacment just thinking it was a dud. My replacement held up a little longer, I fielded it 2 times and I wasent rough on it by any means. Terrible performance the accuracy is awful. Anyways mid game it stopped firing again broken. I returned it and picked up a much much much more reliable gun the elite force 1911 tac it may not be as flashy. This is a great starter gbbp and has done wonders for a first pistol. I abused that thing and it still after a full summer of going every weekend running mag after mag is still kicking and there is just about any internal part available if it does break. If you have more cash to spend and also want a flash hi capa. I would recommend by a Tokyo Mauri 5.1 hi capa. These will run you about 150-170 depending on the model but these have so much customization options. You can do just about anything with that gun you can make it whatever color you like and make it fire like a laser.
@@RiceQB did you give it a full clean and overhaul, clean off any residual lubricant, wipe it down with a sterile wipe, then apply fresh lubricant only where needed
TM is twice the price to achieve performance of a higher series aw. Blowed about 10000 bbs with mine in 6 weeks (action air). It's about the maintenance. You can't expect it to have no failure for 2 years. TM needs some love and spareparts to
TM is the same price as AW and performs much better. Bought an AW to mess with it and was incredibly up to date with maintenance, maintained it like I do my custom built hi capa and still ran into issues. Failed me within 2 months. Problem with AW is the almost entirely proprietary upper than you can’t put better parts in.
Geez. I'm building hicapas for Years. Right now I'm using a scratch built airsoft masterpiece parts filled one and an aw supercomp. First of all. After 2 Years u r using a gun with Stock hopup Rubber which is a trash from aw at start and its getting even worse after Years. Second: after that wear of the hammer I think its a miracle that it shoots. After 2 Years, you should replace the hammer set of every Stock hicapa, for a steel one. Doesnt matter if its tm or not. Third: gas effiency. If the hammer is in that bad shape, i'd check the valve knocker aswell, coz im pretty sure its in the same shape. Conclusion: after 2 Years of intense use, almost all the gbbs and gbbrs need major part changes, so these kind of test are kinda irrelevant and wont Tell the truth about the gun. And remember AW is a budget replica where you pay for the outer parts and u have to replace the inner parts. While were talking about marui, you have to change the outer parts, and you can keep most of inner parts. Most of them doesnt meen that all of them. You still should change the hopup Rubber, barrell, and maybe the bbu aswell. Overall aw is not a bad choice if you know what you should change after some time. It has its weak spots but its still a decent gun.
THIS IS NOT RACISM JUST OBSERVATION, all the asian airsofters i have watched are religiously supportive of tokyo marui and seem to hate anything that tries to compete with them, they always complain about everything while comparing it to a tm, AGAIN, THIS IS NOT RACISM, JUST PURE OBSERVATION AND COMMENTARY edit: but seriously though, aw custom does do decent guns, just they oem to WE, and WE has poor quality control, all you need is to go to your local airsoft store and check in house there aw customs, and find a working one
im not complaining, its just i have only ran aw custom since they first started producing airsoft, and i have never had a single issue with them, only a couple of times did i need to replace some parts but that was user error (i used c02 and forgot to put in the co2 parts needed to run it)
@@RiceQBthe broken outer barrel is definitely an oddity, there one piece cnc'd aluminium, so if it broke it must have been a bad cut, the hammer dent is not on any of my aw customs, and ive been using them daily for a few years, the slide lock problem is actually one that a friend had, sometimes it shears and is rubbed away making it non existent, the extended mags to me personally throw off the balance when shooting they look cool but make the gun clunky
You must oiled this too much but this gun need much of oil on your scratched parts this gun need little bit more attention to oiled than others but when you oiled this much you got most beautiful and good weapon. And about magazine you destroy little part and its goin this (all of problem are your bad conservation and attention with this gun) :/
ALSO, TOKYO MARUI ARE OVERPRICED LUMPS OF PLASTIC, AND LATELY I FEEL THEY HAVE BEEN SLIPPING IN TERMS OF QUALITY CONTROL, THE ONLY TM I OWN IS THE GOLD MATCH CUSTOM AND ITS ACTUALLY A GOOD ONE, BUT OTHER PRODUCTS BY THEM I TRIED WERE POORER BUILT (this is my opinion as this video is yours, but i bet you still get offended by me)
@@RiceQB not trying to roast, just to point out that telling the world your religious about a brand is a bad idea, just say you personally prefer tm, that way its less likely to get targeted by people, i actually love my tm gold match, its my go to for cqb, but i use aw custom for competitive shooting because of performance needs
I've owned a Tokyo Marui M92F. Its the worst GBB I've ever had. It Cracked slide with 8 days use, using green gas. Also broke the left side sabety lever, and the right side safety decocker spring and pin came off, rendering the entire safety system totally ineffective. 2 year later, I was able to find a new slide (I spent two years searching for a slide around the world). After 1 month using only HFC 134a, with very low fps, the slide cracked right in the same point where the old slide broke. Another problem was with the piston lid. It dilated and came off of the cylinder and the pistol was unable to shoot. Also, the springs in its entirety are crappy. Very weak recoil spring, when you aim upside, the slide would come a little bit downside only by its weight, thus affecting the gas seal. The nozzle springs are also extremely weak. The nozzle always got stuck in the hop up chamber, the springs just could not pull it back. Hammer springs are also short-lived. The gun seldom shoots in double action mode.
Honestly bro, to me it just looks like you didnt take care of your pistol and giving it the needed TLC, the way you handling ur gun with the mag changes and cocking, sounds like you just bashing a gun you mis used and broke
Thanks for watching! now I look at it I agree, I've been taking lots of firearm classes at the moment when I took that video. You have to be hard with the gun but not with airsoft...
You're absolutely insane if you think a stock TM would hold up to 10k rounds on Green Gas. You're spending 100 bucks on a new slide eventually, guaranteed. That being said, the aftermarket support for the TM far exceeds that of the AW. Yes, you can get replacement parts for the AW custom, but that's all you'll get: Replacements, not upgrades.
@@chriscos123 my friend has a stock tm and has put over 11000 rounds through it (ef greengas). But it finally did crack at around 500bbs after 11000 and put a new slide for 65$ (3d printed) and works flawlessly for only under 200$ reliably unlike this aw filth
Man... Just fyi we mags did the exact same thing in my tms. Seems you should just stop crying and spend the 700+$ you need to so you might meet your expectations

Btw using only propane and no silicon is probably the main cause of the gas efficiency problem.

Brooo I got me a tti varient and the hop up unit sucks and the slide and barrel finish sucks too. Durability is horrendous go with Tokyo Marui and I would avoid Aw/We
Can I have that gun If you still have it iv always wanted a hi capa
This pistol looks nice but it truly sucks it’s marketed toward people who want a flashy hi capa. I will admit that the external is nice but, the internals are awful. I purchased this for the looks when I didn’t know what I was doing. It came out of the box and I put half a mag through it and it broke refused to fire. It wasent the mag because I had got serveral. Evikes customer service is great I returned this and got a replacment just thinking it was a dud. My replacement held up a little longer, I fielded it 2 times and I wasent rough on it by any means. Terrible performance the accuracy is awful. Anyways mid game it stopped firing again broken. I returned it and picked up a much much much more reliable gun the elite force 1911 tac it may not be as flashy. This is a great starter gbbp and has done wonders for a first pistol. I abused that thing and it still after a full summer of going every weekend running mag after mag is still kicking and there is just about any internal part available if it does break. If you have more cash to spend and also want a flash hi capa. I would recommend by a Tokyo Mauri 5.1 hi capa. These will run you about 150-170 depending on the model but these have so much customization options. You can do just about anything with that gun you can make it whatever color you like and make it fire like a laser.
Do u clean and lube it normally
Yah, everywhere were friction meets and I rings, but this was my result I probably got a factory defect.
do you do regular maintenance ?
jason liu-brennan, yes I did lubed everywhere where friction/moving parts, and O-rings where available.
@@RiceQB did you give it a full clean and overhaul, clean off any residual lubricant, wipe it down with a sterile wipe, then apply fresh lubricant only where needed
i feel like he hating on it a liite to much bc hes used for 2 years so i feel he is kinda over reacting
1K! hekk yeah!!
JKW Audio ik we did it!!!!!
Bro, the outer barrel is supposed to come apart because you just took out the inner barrel, they are 2 separate things
I think it’s funny how u guys hate on aw because of this he has been running it for 2 years this is to be expected
Stripped screws from the factory seems normal lol
Hello rice farmer
alex morales what’s good! My fellow rice farmer!
Maybe it’s because it’s 2 years old
Dude i just Got it and Right out of the box it didnt work...🤬
McRib - it was cold when you used gun?
Did u add gas 😂
You know what's funny...he talks about how annoying the leaf spring is but he fails to figure out that you can buy replacement parts
Yah I’m not spending a cent on a WE or AW, just bought a TM. and I’m doing fine.
Is this a review or hate vid I can’t even tell
TM is twice the price to achieve performance of a higher series aw. Blowed about 10000 bbs with mine in 6 weeks (action air). It's about the maintenance. You can't expect it to have no failure for 2 years. TM needs some love and spareparts to
TM is the same price as AW and performs much better.
Bought an AW to mess with it and was incredibly up to date with maintenance, maintained it like I do my custom built hi capa and still ran into issues. Failed me within 2 months.
Problem with AW is the almost entirely proprietary upper than you can’t put better parts in.
Can i have it. If is garbage to you. I love to have 1.
Geez. I'm building hicapas for Years.
Right now I'm using a scratch built airsoft masterpiece parts filled one and an aw supercomp.
First of all. After 2 Years u r using a gun with Stock hopup Rubber which is a trash from aw at start and its getting even worse after Years.
Second: after that wear of the hammer I think its a miracle that it shoots. After 2 Years, you should replace the hammer set of every Stock hicapa, for a steel one. Doesnt matter if its tm or not.
Third: gas effiency. If the hammer is in that bad shape, i'd check the valve knocker aswell, coz im pretty sure its in the same shape.
Conclusion: after 2 Years of intense use, almost all the gbbs and gbbrs need major part changes, so these kind of test are kinda irrelevant and wont Tell the truth about the gun.
And remember AW is a budget replica where you pay for the outer parts and u have to replace the inner parts. While were talking about marui, you have to change the outer parts, and you can keep most of inner parts. Most of them doesnt meen that all of them. You still should change the hopup Rubber, barrell, and maybe the bbu aswell.
Overall aw is not a bad choice if you know what you should change after some time. It has its weak spots but its still a decent gun.
THIS IS NOT RACISM JUST OBSERVATION, all the asian airsofters i have watched are religiously supportive of tokyo marui and seem to hate anything that tries to compete with them, they always complain about everything while comparing it to a tm, AGAIN, THIS IS NOT RACISM, JUST PURE OBSERVATION AND COMMENTARY
edit: but seriously though, aw custom does do decent guns, just they oem to WE, and WE has poor quality control, all you need is to go to your local airsoft store and check in house there aw customs, and find a working one
im not complaining, its just i have only ran aw custom since they first started producing airsoft, and i have never had a single issue with them, only a couple of times did i need to replace some parts but that was user error (i used c02 and forgot to put in the co2 parts needed to run it)
Thanks for watching I guess my AW was just a really bad factory defect. I’m getting a mixed bad of opinions on this. 😂
@@RiceQBthe broken outer barrel is definitely an oddity, there one piece cnc'd aluminium, so if it broke it must have been a bad cut, the hammer dent is not on any of my aw customs, and ive been using them daily for a few years, the slide lock problem is actually one that a friend had, sometimes it shears and is rubbed away making it non existent, the extended mags to me personally throw off the balance when shooting they look cool but make the gun clunky
aw custom guns always use the red gas never the green
BRUH CLEAN YOUR DAMN GUN TAKE CARE OF IT
You must oiled this too much but this gun need much of oil on your scratched parts this gun need little bit more attention to oiled than others but when you oiled this much you got most beautiful and good weapon. And about magazine you destroy little part and its goin this (all of problem are your bad conservation and attention with this gun) :/
Michał chwalisz OOPS! Oh well
An this is a very biased opinion when he even stated he hated this gun
It's not biased it's just a garbage gun same with almost all aw pistols
@@chutemi-ph4kj its a decent gun
ALSO, TOKYO MARUI ARE OVERPRICED LUMPS OF PLASTIC, AND LATELY I FEEL THEY HAVE BEEN SLIPPING IN TERMS OF QUALITY CONTROL, THE ONLY TM I OWN IS THE GOLD MATCH CUSTOM AND ITS ACTUALLY A GOOD ONE, BUT OTHER PRODUCTS BY THEM I TRIED WERE POORER BUILT (this is my opinion as this video is yours, but i bet you still get offended by me)
I hope you had a great time attempting to roast a teenager 😂😂 wow you got me there, I’m so offended.
@@RiceQB not trying to roast, just to point out that telling the world your religious about a brand is a bad idea, just say you personally prefer tm, that way its less likely to get targeted by people, i actually love my tm gold match, its my go to for cqb, but i use aw custom for competitive shooting because of performance needs
Would you like to participate in the TM churches on Sundays? We have a pastor talking about all the TM Plans and our love for TM 😇😘
@@RiceQB lmao
I've owned a Tokyo Marui M92F. Its the worst GBB I've ever had. It Cracked slide with 8 days use, using green gas. Also broke the left side sabety lever, and the right side safety decocker spring and pin came off, rendering the entire safety system totally ineffective. 2 year later, I was able to find a new slide (I spent two years searching for a slide around the world). After 1 month using only HFC 134a, with very low fps, the slide cracked right in the same point where the old slide broke. Another problem was with the piston lid. It dilated and came off of the cylinder and the pistol was unable to shoot. Also, the springs in its entirety are crappy. Very weak recoil spring, when you aim upside, the slide would come a little bit downside only by its weight, thus affecting the gas seal. The nozzle springs are also extremely weak. The nozzle always got stuck in the hop up chamber, the springs just could not pull it back. Hammer springs are also short-lived. The gun seldom shoots in double action mode.
Change the hammer
The blow back housing are the worse I’ve ever seen just buy a tm
You can say that again!!, I betrayed my native brand and that’s what happened.
What your insta bro I changed up to a tm 😅
@riceqb_
Honestly bro, to me it just looks like you didnt take care of your pistol and giving it the needed TLC, the way you handling ur gun with the mag changes and cocking, sounds like you just bashing a gun you mis used and broke
Thanks for watching! now I look at it I agree, I've been taking lots of firearm classes at the moment when I took that video. You have to be hard with the gun but not with airsoft...
Those won’t survive 10k rounds dude
Ikr!!, should have bought a TM
You're absolutely insane if you think a stock TM would hold up to 10k rounds on Green Gas. You're spending 100 bucks on a new slide eventually, guaranteed.
That being said, the aftermarket support for the TM far exceeds that of the AW. Yes, you can get replacement parts for the AW custom, but that's all you'll get: Replacements, not upgrades.
chriscos123, yes you are right but I use duster gas with TM, but now I have hpa so I just use the pistol at 80psi.
@@chriscos123 my friend has a stock tm and has put over 11000 rounds through it (ef greengas). But it finally did crack at around 500bbs after 11000 and put a new slide for 65$ (3d printed) and works flawlessly for only under 200$ reliably unlike this aw filth
Man... Just fyi we mags did the exact same thing in my tms. Seems you should just stop crying and spend the 700+$ you need to so you might meet your expectations
ALEX Hahha thanks for the advice, I honestly don’t care about that gun. I just went HPA. Thanks for watching!
