Airsoft Canada - View Single Post

Hey all,

Recently purchased one of these, took it out of the box, fired a mag... and then fired about 20 more. Absolutely love this GBBR!

So a few questions:

1. How do I tell which version the gun is? It was not purchased from Buy Airsoft, and it may be an older batch. Serial no. is: KE016458
Edit: Appears to be a V2, but confirmation would be appreciated.

2. I've tried to find the Azmuth nozzle for the mags online with no luck via Google except to learn it's discontinued. Is there somewhere that still sells these or perhaps an alternate nozzle or mod to do to the factory one? Edit: Found the post on them being crap lol.

3. Mags; seen them for around 60-65 at most Canadian sites. Is there anywhere that sells them for less in North America? Redwolf looks to be sold out, and all the other sites I've found seem to be in Taiwan or somewhere else where shipping would be high. I have no problem with $60/ea mags, but less $$ = more mags and more fun

4. Bolt Lock. I've swapped the non locking one from the mag that came with the gun out - I'm seeing some DIY's on here for modded bolt lock's and am assuming they are prone to breakage. How long are we looking at before this happens with stock components. Obviously enhanced springs will increase this but jw.

5. General fixes, any required? V2 seems to be solid but I'm all for preventative maintenance/upgrades.

6. What is the "Action Extend Charging Tube For VFC MP5 GBB" used for? I'm guessing to eliminate the wobble on the stock charging handle, but haven't been able to find any description as to what it's for as of yet.

Sorry for being 'that guy' asking all the questions. I've read through quite a bit of this thread but any additional specific help you're willing to offer would be awesome.

Thanks in advance!
