Cheap for a reason, but still it works. Must be not sealing right if you only got 250fps. Could be the cylinder head if you didn’t replace that and have the nozzle right. I like the 4 way selector. I can only think of one other that did that. I like how they slapped the V3 motor mount on to a V2. A lot of people poo poo the Aug but meh, I love it.
It is tricky with the t piece and the way it is aligned and held in place. I ended up with two o rings and redrilling the dimple the screw locks down on to. Not all are the same though I’ve noticed variances in others. Mine was 230 fps OTB.
Sorta makes you wonder what the designers were thinking with the A1 having a fixed proprietary scope.
The A2 with the picatinny handle at least made up for it with its design, which was obviously popular considering the amount of picatinny they added on the next version!
It’s only because that design was from 1977 where weaver or pic rails were not common. ie A1 Steyr Aug is STG77. Dachapo’s googlefu is correct Hardly any military rifles had any scope at all in the 70’s.
Apparently the A1 scopes were pretty servicable… but I’m sure there are some ex service peeps on here who can shed some light on that.
Almost worth springing for the JG if the integrated scope’s your bag, but worth noting they didn’t get the reticle right… crosshairs instead of just the “donut of death”.
Hi , I purchased a LH Aug cyc head and nozzel , it was a tight fit [ very tight ] when put together, the tappet plate keeps getting stuck ??? , put the original cyc head no problems, can I use universal gears .
Check the tappet plate is not too wide mine was rubbing and holding it up. Especially in the head area where it makes the nozzle go to and fro. The box is acrylic so flexes a lot. Back the screws off unless you got a wrong head, gen8 or V2 will not fit.
Hi , what about heat with the mosfet , will it malfunction if too hot , and will it reset when cools down , my shed is a bit hot 39deg inside while testing .
