As an AK purist fundamentalist anorak wearing train spotting stitch counter, I should hate that, I should, I really should....... Why don't I hate that? OMG I'm having a existential crisis
Hi mate great video as usual very entertaining, really like the look of the last rifle. Thanks for always being entertaining. Keep up the good work, take care have fun and play hard.
Used to be a roofer for multiple years. One day my boss looks at me and he says; "Mike, I'm gonna teach you how to do this. And there's 3 ways to do it. The right way, the wrong way, then my way 😉"
My job years ago was antique French polisher. I must say great work on the wood.👌 I have the EMG noveske gen4 13.7 as they say on the bullshit Wright up they give. 1 the barrel was full of brown rusty looking shit wouldn't polish out. it wasn't even straight. I dropped in SHS stainless Steel barrel with modify flat hop retro arms hop unit. fps jumped got 28 more out of it. The externals 👌 gearbox not opened yet so can't say. but shooting great on the few tests I've done with 11.1 titan battery. I only got it for the looks tbh €240. ? What gearbox do you think would fit the best.
God that AKS74U build made me cream my pants, until I saw the 7.62x39mm mag on it. Shame on you Luke! Mr aesthetics himself! And now I’m the one moaning, please don’t kill me.
I am absolutely in love with how the wood furniture came out!! What did you use on the wood, oil and polish wise?? I want to duplicate this on my CYMA RPK...
With what I assume to be a hoard of bits and ends to mix, how has it been customizing wood externals across various AK and other model types and brands? Have you found a brand that provides better wood qualities or another that gives you crap? Looking at the PSG, I just think it would be a nice kit to have a solid wood stock and fore grip, never-minding the weight and bugger the plastic pistol grip. What you did for that small AK looks great, love the contrast the burning brought out. Hope to see more mixed material guns.
was that 74U cm.035?, because I have one too (the A version with actual wood) and I love it. and btw when you put AKM mag into it you basically turn it into yugo zastava M92 (yeah, I use AKM mags too, gonna change that when I start using mid caps)
I appreciate the like from you negative, question here maybe you can discuss in a video but I pre ordered the ARES kel tec RDB cause I'm a filthy slag for unique futuristic looking guns even if they need too much work to be good haha, same shit with my Falkor and a few other builds I have. So here is the thing, hate the magnet sensor system wish they would fuck off with it and go to standard v2 so I can use a gate titan. But since I'm stuck with the EFCS till gate titan comes up with something do you think it would be possible to use a brushless motor with the ARES system for extra control when teching without breaking the electronics ? Cheers
Gott if only one of my kalash models sounded that good (moaning aside). Cannot be knackered to open any of them up again anymore, not after going on a p90 binge for the past half year.
I love trying to work out Lukes music, some of them are copyright friendly remakes and can be hard to identify. Who did the Dirge for November? I like it :)
As a mechanic and a hotrodder , I want to get into knowing these aeg and gas systems because I can't leave things alone. What would be the best books or manuals I can get to give me a good bit of info? Bye the bye, what mix of song is this. I was around highschool age when static X came out . Wisconsin death trip prolly their best album. 😈
Negative, I ordered a WA2000. (2020 version), I am not a collector and I would like to game it. What mods do you know of or have done that improve the playability?
If you don’t mind , what make dsg gears do you use please as I’m thinking of doing an ak dsg for myself. Thanks. Keep the vids coming I laugh so much at your vids , well you vocals not the skills of your tech work
Hey guys, if you can help me i have quick question. I m working on a dsg build and i have some vacuum problems with a piston head from maxx model. I recently saw a video with a guy that created more space for the o ring to move forward and let the piston gaps clear so air can pass free. He did that grinding into the piston head Oring space with a rotary thing ( don t know how is called :D ) but i dont want to ruin an expensive piston head. Can i find somewhere on the market a slimR O-ring so i can replace it and hopefully get rid of the vacuum and get some + fps on full auto? ( from 1.06 J the gun dropps to 0.55 - 0.6 J ) I did all other things flawless and i cant wait to play with it :D What other options you guys recomend @ Luke ?
I heard horror stories about APS and this fits right in. I had thought maybe their accessories can be alright like a bipod. I was wrong, their metal is so soft that the gripping lock of the bipod bent in 2 skirms. There is almost no room to bent or to break nor excessive force had been applied. Too many Airsoft budget bipods I came across were in some way related to APS.
I've got to say, mate your craic is off the chart. I've got a Cyma 701 VSR 10 bog-standard firing 498fps with .2s What would you recommend I upgrade if anything?cheers?
Have you tried shaving down the bevel with the tip of the drill bit at 45 degree so it will have more catches So making a bevel from 4 catches to 8 catches can be done
@@pizzawithbuck6982 i have a tm mp5k, and i would love to make an SAS loadout... But i want a L85 because i have a dpm uniform, and i want to make a british soldier loadout. Also because i freakin love the L85a2 despite me knowing it was a major catastrophe...
Bought 2 silver edge gearboxes Both were shot Rebuilt both myself Replaced everything but the case Can't believe they put plastic pistons in a 80 dollar gearbox
I am of the same opinion on LCT. I have a LCT G3 but I cannot get the mags to feed consistently. since you mentioned the mag problem. What do you do to fix them?
Love your videos. I feel like you’re the only tech I can actually trust. Was wondering if you could answer a quick question, are siegetek gears really worth the money? Would you recommend or are they overpriced for what they are?
I found out for myself if I want mine to be smooth and cycle spot on I start with spur as the bevel is already done and shimmed out of the box but for me if the spur isn't correctly seated and shimmed then I don't know where my pick up gear needs to be and atm with my ar9 platinum which mosfet broke I shimmed it within 2 mins as the 12:1 cyma high speed gears that where shimmed came out of my v3
Overpriced and overrated when you can easily build a normal aeg that will perform just as well if not better for way less. Also not even close to being a good training platform when vipertech exists and is much higher quality.
@@opairsoft8100 I just wish more company’s would continue to innovate like systema did/does especially with their upcoming infinity line. They’re definitely outdated and overpriced but at least they’re something different from the seeming stagnation of the airsoft industry.
Great vid, funny as ever! You got much experience working on the ICS l85? I wanna get back into airsoft after a long break but I really want to sort out the semi lockup these guns tend to have cos of the innovative, 'realistic' trigger mechanism. I'm not really a full auto player so having a reliable semi auto would be nice.
man that is a sexy little ak! i need to get one XD as for James top lad, you know i love a psg id get it but only if it was perfect that price tag is to much XD
I can agree that APS has some issues but for me I bought a falkor before they switched to the ARES gearbox and was able to use a gate titan with SHS 14:1 gears and a MAXX hopup, gun works great. had to dremmel the inside of the gearbox to make room for the SHS gears but taking the time to do it actually gave me a super unique gun that shoots well. Not defending APS cause I hate the ARES mosfet system and maybe I'm lucky but so far a good experience after actually giving it some time. Probably had to put in less time than you had to with the King Arms SIG 556, but that's airsoft, you can justify spending the time any money making any personal gun awesome if you like the way it looks, even if it's shit when you start.
I thought that blue handguard you had was a joke you put in the vid, the way you had it sat it looked like a giant prommi blue rubber lol your surprised that VFC are overcharging for there products, how long have you been doing this lol

Most recent I'm aware of was a House of Lords reading of the current UK firearms laws (which include replica firearms as well as projectile firearms such as paintball markers and air rifles) and there was a brief discussion about whether all airsoft guns should be restricted to the 1 joule limit that paintball markers are subject to. They decided the law is fine as is and left it alone. It'll be brought up for routine review by the Lords eventually, but otherwise no one seems to be looking to change anything here.

So you have mentioned Arcturus this time. But what do you think about them?
Could you please say something about lancer tactical ?
So when shimming an M4 do you recommend for or against using the halfshell method to set motor height or is it just a personal preference thing?
If you want right gear contact then do it. Otherwise your just guessing blind.
@@opairsoft8100 that's how I do it. I was just asking his opinion on it.

Have you tried shaving down the bevel with the tip of the drill bit at 45 degree so it will have more catches
So making a bevel from 4 catches to 8 catches can be done
I’ve just got the HK33, you could hack down a tree it’s so solid, it’s loud as f**k though! Not as loud as your music, obviously 😂
Just curious, have you encountered some l85s ? Some brand you can recommend? Obviously the UKARMS is the best, but what about second best?
Seen a classic army one, rock solid but it's nearly impossible to come by a brand new one, let alone spare parts.
