No matter how many times you try and reinvent the wheel, they ALWAYS come out exactly the same!![]()
I had so much trouble with this blaster that i just left it in my basement for 8 months. The gearbox wouldnāt seat properly so the blaster would seize up and get stuck on safety and at the time I didnāt know that was the problem. I got that sorted and now the charging handle is giving me issues.
The SLRās are normally quite a good model Gelblaster, but in this hobby thereās plenty of little things that can go wrong!
It just takes time and patience working through each little component to ensure everything is operating as it should to keep them active and reliable.![]()
how to make your AK looks more modernš„ŗ
(plz ingnore the rusty lever and muzzle brake and upper
"Type 53 7.62 Light Machine Gun Slingā , which may be modern replica cuz the characters simplyfied Chinese was not widely used then.
Some other dudeās live fire projectā¦
Heās after metal shroudsā¦resin ones crack when firedā¦
One dayā¦in another countryā¦!!
Just saying the words āShotgun cut down to lengthā, would get you arrested hereā¦!!
Fitted a pic rail and vert grip to the sup of my BT9.
In long config itās more MP9.
With the sup and the stock off itās pure BT9 pistol.
Oh what a story this
has made!
BMEāS went so smoothly. Mine not so much!
Purchased for a good deal with 4 spare mags and no muzzle after falling for BMEās.
Originally intended to just do bushes, gears, but of seal work and a spring, use a spare neo motor I had laying about, just tickle for what I had and didnāt want to spend any money further on it.
Well⦠well used E&C happened!
Bushes in, radiused the box, shimming was a nightmare as for gel reasons they just didnāt play nice with the gearbox and bushes, total opposite of BMEās!
New piston and head, cylinder head, spring, o-rings, and spare SHS black motor. Long winded for what should have been simple but this thing wasnāt finished with me!
The trigger contacts decided to fail. Replace trigger block, and then it started having shorts⦠found that and then semi got unreliable, fixed that, trigger sticky, fixed that, semi non existentā¦
Stuff it. This was 3 spare weekend days over a couple months wasted.
Today, t238 basic installed, works⦠no feedingā¦
The mag wires colours are backwards⦠FFS!
Sorted that⦠stuff it⦠have it all!
28k Solink brushless, and a summer cat hopup barrel. Mlok accessories and a nice scope and mount. Done!
Works well finally!
@BME for record⦠mine also has an m120 spring though mine is well used from my spares pile.
Actually tried 6 springs before finding one that did the fps close to Donnybrookās 370fps limit, and itās dicey! All the m110 and similar I tried were woeful struggling to get over 300fps, on got 320 which is close to the stock spring.
Looks good, canāt wait to field it! Not for all day though as it is long heavy and obnoxious, but that it the charm of it!
Its that gel consistent manufacturing tolerancesā¦
precision build, after precision buildā¦!!
Wow, sounds like it gave you the worksā¦!!
Glad you got thereā¦
Itās no very similar to yours, though the T238 basic instead of standard trigger switch. Wouldnāt have bothered if it wasnāt dead, and then the aftermarket switch didnāt play nice.
Thatās why I try to keep a few all the time!
A fun fact though⦠11v of course has the 20rps you want in auto, but semi due to the T238 always does a normal semi cylce from the very start⦠but there is a neat quirkā¦
If it is the ultimate semi auto response you want. On this thing- run a 7.4v! It finishes the cycle just before it releases the piston, seriously pre cocked all the way.
Guessing the extra 3 teeth has it pulling up just before release rather than just after if using a 7v.
Neat effect. If itās what you desire. Of course now I need to remember to decock it with an 11v rather than the usual 7v!
In an effort to source mags for my APC9K I got to eyeballing every other stick mag I own.
Struck me that the drum mag that comes with the UZI might actually fit a Le Hui MP9 with a minimum of fettlingā¦
Cut an extra slot in the mag a little higher up than the original and it does. Firm fit, terminals and feed tube line up perfectly, feeds fine. ![]()
Still works in the UZI, of course. Just have to push it in to the second position.
Not really a huge fan of drums, much prefer sticks⦠but thatās two pimped MP9s with a drum mag and two stick mags apiece.
Dual weilding anyone? ![]()
Fwwooaarr⦠fkn hell rok, howās accuracy at 370fps?
Bet thatās a stinger tho lol
BMEās hitting just over 400fps in initial testing was wild, I suspect over time the spring will settle to this sort of range.
I am yet to test that, but I except it to be like everything I have built in that fps range. Out of 5 gels one is accurate enough to potentially land a hit at +35m, the other 4 are in the ābeaten zoneā of 2-3 meters of the target! ![]()
Gels are better these days, but they are still gels!
Hoping to test it this weekend- but I have some Dracos to work on! ![]()
Dress it and paint her up will be fine. That looks wild, cheers ![]()
Surely China is no where near as humid as the north end of Australia?
South Australian and Western Australian Gelblasters were renowned for being in good condition on the second hand market, whereas anything out of Queensland or the Northern Territory were usually rusted and rotted to the core!
Mid-south China is surely very very humid
And original barrel are usually aliuminium which is not easy to get rusty
I changed it with a third-party steel barrel which has no anti-rust treatment just because the barrel of second-handed BingFeng 95 has been shortened by original owner and thereās no original factory parts sellingā¦soš
Iām in Brisbane and canāt say any of my barrels have rusted.
But in saying that when youāre running a printer most days and the average temp in the room is around 35ā° all year round that probably plays a part ![]()
Oi Iāve been getting some of the bannana benders humidity down here. Shorts, thongs tank top and Iām still sweating doing nothing
. No wonder I donāt live up there. Now itās a couple of C and Iām burning rubbish and stumps to keep warm. About 3 bloody clothes changes in a day . Must admit pearler weather, good living outdoors weather ![]()
Rusted barrels. What, Thereās this little thing called oil @DocBob

Fingers crossed you can work the same magic with mine.
