I’m not at home right now but I use heavier oils from hobby shops. If you have a good model shop nearby they sell silicon oil to refill RC car shock absorbers. Available in different weights for half the price of blaster oils.
For example

Hrmm … thanks for that. Theres a good hobby shop on Beaudesert Rd, Bris. Will drop in and check their selection. I reckon double the weight would be needed

I love Tac edge too and shop at Yatala store a lot. Unfortunately Command Elite Hobbies are the only importer for Army Armament, they aren’t the greatest business to deal with (Past history with Pre orders and a nasty attitude from the owner) but I’ve only purchased from them a few times and personally avoid pre orders so my experience hasn’t been too bad with them. The Army Armament Sand Viper is the best Sand Viper I’ve checked out. The GE and Double Bell ones look terrible. The EMG is the right size and looks great with only minor flaws but the full auto caused a malfunction in my case with the Pit Viper. Pretty happy with the AA Sand Viper.

I guess my continuation of this question is what are people’s favourite/best performing Glock? It feels like there are 700 different glocks by different companies and not enough obvious differences.
I will also mention I’m a big fan of metal blasters, they comparatively feel a lot nicer (not really relevant to my last question)
WE Tech Glocks are decent, so are the Double Bells and E&C. Azeaels have cheap WE Glock mags.
I have a E&C Glock which performs really well out of the box. E&C mags are compatible with Double Bell. WE Tech mags aren’t compatible with anything else.
Double Bell G22 - cheap, accurate and reliable. E&C G19X for a tan one (only $199 at WAT) and they take Double Bell magazines
Just a warning on Azraels. Dont by any gat from them unless they have spare mags in stock. They lied outright to me about having WE Tech Beretta mags on the way, which convinced me to buy one. Never happened. Just another retailer that promises and doesnt deliver i guess. Never been back.
So I ended up going into tac edge and having a feel of the pistols they had available. Wasn’t super happy with how the Glock felt as a first pistol and the Beretta they did have available felt too cheap/weak (was electric rather than gas powered).
I ended up just going with the EMG TTI JW3 Combat master, felt super nice in my hands with the way the whole grip is stippled and the flared mag-well.
Had a chance to test it tonight at crossfire as well (my first time at the field) and the pistol felt really solid, no complaints from me on the accuracy or performance front (especially once I figured out how to refill the gas in the mag).

hey Rok,
just have a quick question about your JG works 1911, do you know what size the thread is on the barrel for attaching suppressors/tracer? and do you know whether it’s a cw or ccw thread?
the bifrost has the 14/11 adaptor that came with it but the 11 is too small and I don’t have one of those measuring tools and not sure if measuring with a ruler will give me an accurate measurement.
looking to get another adaptor to suit so I can use the bifrost on the JG 1911 as well as some of my other blasters
on a side note, I have got readings of 300fps on the first couple of shots after freshly gassing the magazine, think I was using tacedge ultra hard gels or gladiator ultra hards
any help would be much appreciated as always, cheers

I remember the adaptor the tracers come with suites glocks… I got one for JG was same as golden eagle hicapas whatever they are.
If they’re the same as GE, I’ll measure mine up. I know some pistol threads are M11, think some are M12.

Wonder if they are that fine metric pitch like the Shark came out with that tripped a few of us up.
You can’t tell until I blew the dust off the thread pitch gauge. 1.00mm pitch instead of 1.25mm or something like that been awhile ago. Clockwise to counterclockwise that was a ripper 
I’ll keep that in mind as I do want to get a Glock as well in future, probably a full auto one for shits and giggles and endless reloading 
much appreciated, although I get the feeling it may be the m13 as there seemed to be a fair jump from the M11 adaptor to the thread
yeah I had to order an M14 cw to ccw so it will go on my JG works sig 551, hopefully the same adaptor will work on my metal wells cqb m4 as well or it’ll be another adaptor for that sucker as well
Stay away from hi capas imo unless you want to spend money on upgrading if you only want 1 blaster and not have to replace much on it go a we tech Glock they are the most reliable by far
