I'll bring a couple, just in case I might need to replace this or want to put it on the SV...I'll give you and someone else who's interested......

They are only $30 bucks(for 5), I am sure you can probably order it in Canada...

Endymion December 5th, 2008 20:00

Colour me interested. :)

RacingManiac December 5th, 2008 20:18

I tried a set of cocking handle that uses the mounting base for the Marui Bomar, but since I had the C-More mounted by a gunsmith before I got the cocking handle, the space underneath the C-more is not enough for the stock sight. I'll have to get another cocking handle(maybe the ProG4) that fits flush to the profile of the slide...

The gun is not zeroed or tuned yet. Test fired today and chronoed 370fps using .20g and PDI 6.05 barrel. Will need a bit more fitting work to get the gun working well, and I'll probably cut down the stock sight base just to temperarily have a cover for the sight cutout...

damn ! Did I told you that I hate you so much right now ?

ILLusion January 31st, 2009 03:21

What's going on with your mag base bumper? LOL.

Looking really nice, though. How is the slide functioning? Is it cycling well?

BlueBliss January 31st, 2009 03:22

awesome Race gun, I'm loving the comp.

RacingManiac January 31st, 2009 10:08

the mag bumper is wrapped in electrical tape so they don't fall off on reloading. Don't feel like getting aluminum one on those...lol

It cycles surprisingly well for next to no work....but the nozzle is a bit tight working with SD O-ring atm, I'll try the AS O-ring next....

ILLusion January 31st, 2009 17:25

What output valves are you using?

RacingManiac January 31st, 2009 19:15

stock, but I actually have some 9balls coming....since it was the only ones instock at eHobby last week....

the4thpower3 January 31st, 2009 22:24

RM - why don't you just mod the stock valves?
I'll do it for you if you want...then you can compare my high flow vs. NineBall.
Just send them to me USPS. A little bubble wrap, a small envelope and a stamp.

My modded stock vs. Tanio Koba (open)

...put that in your chrono and smoke it :)

RacingManiac February 1st, 2009 00:43

I did actually before....I could probably give that a go still....

Couple more pics

Modded the stock rear sight base to sit under the C-more so that I have a cover for the top the BBU at the moment, ordered a left side cocking handle from ProG4 for future. The Airsoft Surgeon nozzle didn't work for too long, the spring tab broke off after 20 shots. Now I am using a SD Nozzle and AS Oring with the BBU/piston, but the FPS dropped because of that. Now I am at ~345fps. Have to try to improve the seal a bit....Got the sight somewhat zeroed enough, and thanks to the low-mounting C-more the process of getting used to using a RDS seems to be not so bad....also did some trigger tuning with the stock trigger loop, with some shimming with electrical tape I got to take out the slack in the trigger and with some leaf spring bending and disconnetor modding lowered the (perceived) trigger weight as well. Had to tune the SD nozzle BB-tip to get more consistent BB loading (was misloading) and add chamfer to the 2nd and 3rd lug get the slide not stick on return to battery. Now the gun seems to cycle pretty well, it has very light recoil and fast action....

the4th, what kind of fsp do you get on those home made valves?

dude... DITCH the 9balls.

CANCEL THAT ORDER AS SOON AS YOU CAN!

Seriously... I have never been more disappointed with an aftermarket "upgrade" component before, especially from such a respected and renowned company.

The 9ball "high flow" valves offer absolutely NO increase in performance whatsoever.

If you shot 320fps before, you'll shoot 320fps after you install those valves. And those stupid ball bearings they include don't do squat either. All they do is get stuck in the cracks and crevices of your magazines and reduce your gas capacity.

If I'd ever seen poor execution on a product before, this beat it.

I SECOND this motion...listen to THE4thPOWER3, mod the stock valve or go with the TK. You've spent enough on the gun, why CHEAP out on 9ballers!
