The guy who did the job on the M24 is Marksman and they are chances that he's oversea as we speak seeing how many times he's been deployed.

Ok, thanks Brakoo.

I remember in high school we sent this really dopey kid to the store to buy plaid spraypaint. We didn't see him for about an hour and when he came back he said it looked like it was all sold out because he couldn't find any. Lol

Where did you get the duracoat? Does he make Marpat pattern?

[FOX_111]

It's a guy in the CF that used or still play airsoft that made it.

I don't think he is doing this stuff anymore.

If you want a similar job done, I suggest googling it. You will find prefessionnal people that can do it for a fee. Some people here on ASC are still doing it. I don't know who.

those are some breath taking shots.

I see my old champ in there! how are you liking it Fox?

[FOX_111]

The M700 is not shooting straight, but I will fix it. The mag that you sold with it is not usable as it don't hold it's pressure for mor than 3 shots. I got 2 brand new mags that work well.

The scope is not up to my standards and will be replaced too.

Once the rifle is acurised, i'll paint it camo.

All that sound a little bad for this great rifle, but make no mistakes, I'm happy with it. It's just an ungoing project as it is.

It's currently set to fire .30g BB at 500fps.
That's about 550fps with .20g. It's my special purpose rifle, for open fields.

[manchovie]

for all your missing at high velocity needs? :P

[bean]

If its firing .3g at 500fps isnt that not closer to 620fps with .2g?

[FOX_111]

I'd say it's more like 550fps... but I could be wrong. I did not chrony it with .20g yet. The rifle it not fieldable anyway. I used it 10 minutes at the last game... I did not felt confortable shooting people with it, as it shot all over the place.

EDIT: 615fps with .20g as the same joule output of a .30g at 500fps (3.47joules for a .30g at 500fps, 3.5joules at 615fps for a .20g)
So yeah, it's a little hotter than I mentally calculated, but still, at the distance I intend to use it, it won't make much difference.
The rifle is easely ajustable, so I can tune it down as necessary. It's still in the testing phase.

[Lakonian]

FOX_111, what upgrades do you have for the CA M24? What velocity is it shooting at right now?

Do you ever notice that sometime the sear doesn't catch onto the piston when cocking the CA M24? Or sometimes it is difficult to return the bolt into battery once the action has been cocked?

[rideout]

very nice

Everything is upgrader except the trigger group. It's shooting a 450fps with .20g.

I never got the problem you mention. Sometime, it's hard to push the bolt back to battery, but that indicate that the mag is empty. It's the nozle pushing on the empty mag lips. If you push too hard, the nozle will make it's way past it, but will scratch the lips and ruin your mags in the long run. When cycling the bolt, you have to be verrrrry gentle. Pull it traight out, wait for the click, than push it slowly back in, feel the BB feed in than aim and shoot. It's hard to do, since the bolt is hard to pull and you have to keep the butt firmly on your shoulder while pulling the bolt. When prone, you have to get the hang of it without pulling a mussle haha.

I once had some problem with it. It was caused by looses screws inside that did not hold the inner barrel in place. Stalked had to one occasion, retap all the main screws because the rifle was not shooting anymore. Not it's fixed and the rifle is back in buisness.

That's because you have weak girly arms Fox

I love the paint job on the rifle. Looks even better in person.
