Warning for KJW M700 users and game orgs

[HaWkInS]

Assuming the guns go over 500, how would you go about registering them? They wouldn't be classified as airsoft anymore but as a non-restricted firearm. Its just a thought to keep in mind.

Stop beating a dead, dead horse. Firearm = +500FPS AND +5.7J. That means around 720FPS with 0.2g BBs.

The power on the KJW M700 is adjustable according to this thread. Everything from 280fps using propane all the way up to 560fps. Good read for all that have one of these, especially when dealing with field limits."

THANKS! Now I finally use it!

To be classified as a firearm it must exceed 500 FPS AND! a certain Joule amont of muzzle energy, but i dont recall the amount, however 500FPS with .20s dosen't exceed said energy.

I stand corrected. I was just unsure of that specific law. Just needed clarification. Thanks for the info.

Why anyone would bother registering a real firearm is beyond me. JUST because the government TOLD you to? Ya, right! 90% chance it'll get either lost, the info pertaining to your gun completely screwed up, the address your firearm resides at, and if the info remains correct, what purpose does it really serve? All of the above is pretty much current statistics, so regarding airsoft, why bother? I've heard of people registering heat guns, grease guns, nail guns, staple guns over the past 5 years during the period it was free, just because, no other reason. If you want to register any type of thing that has gun attached to it, go right ahead.

I would have to agree with you guy and tell you to heed these warnings. I dont really want to disclose the fps that my tanaka m700 has done. Its high, Here is what it did to a dime on full blast

dont ban the gun... just use caution with the people using it. oh and mine is for sale too.

Cool! I should dig up my pics of empty tuna can testing at 30ft between my M24, the M700 on duster and the M700 on propane, all shooting .36g BBs. Pretty explanatory.

Ya, it really can't be banned since it has such variability (280fps to 560fps), it should just be treated as each sniper rifle is, chronied and the user fully tested for visual ID of minimum engagement distances (pick a tree that is 100ft away from where we are standing now kinda thing.)

Many AEG's would be classified as prohib or restricted if they shot over 500 and 5.7.

Nobody want's to play against 5.7j anyways. Might as well play against 5.6j pellet guns.

"...recently i was experimenting with my KJ m700 and i discovered something that I was wondering if someone could verify for me. I took my bolt apart completely and removed the little allen screw that is in the rear hammer thing, and then tightend the spring in the front all the way down, then put the allen screw back. After doing so, the gun chronos 630fps consitently with .2g bb's. The gas i used was propane, but i checked it also with green gas and it was the same. It used to chrono around 500fps before doing this. I then tried the same thing but adjusted it the opposite way and was able to drastically reduce power (This could be useful for people with a low field limit). If someone else could test this and verify it, i would appriciate it. I think it would be a good piece of info for all kj m700 owners, or future owners." - Sulfuric_t2, Airsoft Retreat Forums

::Instructions::

- Take out your bolt as the manual shows.
- Flip it over and you will see two small screws (flat head).
- Remove these and the front part of the bolt will remove (part with the nossle on it).
- Next located the small allen screw on the bottom of the hammer (in back of bolt on bottom).
- Loosen the allen or even take it all the way out (just ot be safe so no pressure on the rod).
- Next you will see a rod sticking out the front of the bolt where the piece with the nossle came off. There is a sloted head on this rod. turn it clock wise untill it stops. This is the maximum power position (for me 560fps).

- Now if you turn it counter clockwise, it will decrease the power. I found that no more than 2 full turns should be done (at this position gun shoots 280ish and if you go more, the gun will not fire anymore for lack of spring tension). When pick where you want it to be, put the allen screw back in and make sure its snug, then reassemble the bolt the way you took it apart. Put back in gun and have fun. Oh yeah, make sure that all the parts in there have some oil on them and move freely.

There you have it, this should make it possible for you to make it under whatever field limit you may have in your area. For me i tune it to shoot just a little under 400 with propane and green gas. Just make sure before you chrono at your field of choice, fire the gun maybe twice before chronoing because on the gas sniper rifles, the first shot or two may have a higher fps than the bulk of your shots. Hope this works for all you as well as it worked for me.
