Anyone run one of these scopes. Not intending to use it a sight, just as a tool to identify foe when they are outside blaster range. Like it because it has a pic rail on the tube
Hey all, hope everyone is doing well!
Iām looking to make my own L1A1 SLR gel blaster based off a gen 8 (because Iām poor) and I need to know how to make a gen 8 gearbox semi-auto (either only semi-auto or a switch between full-auto and semi-auto). What would I need to get this done? Would an SKD glock 18 MOSFET work? what about a AUG or Vector MOSFET?
Any help would be appreciated, Cheers.
https://www.monkeemods.com/wbb/optics-sights/zoom-scope/hw-vortex-v3xm-3x-magnifier.html you could use one of these folds out of the way tho is fixed 3x but ur honnestly paying for clarity of its glass. the glass on the sight u linked is dogshit and blurry but if thats ur price range its aight i guess can zoom tho so plus and cons
Hey, I donāt mean to be rude, but Iām not sure that would fit and look right in an SLR as the gen 8 is made for m4s and MP5s and stuff, I think it would probably be better if you used a j11/j12 gearbox as they are roughly a V3 and v3s are used in the SLR blasters already, plus the j11/j12 gearbox already has mechanical semi auto!

Opinions on bf mac 10 vs mp7?
Leaning towards mp7. Looks better, can get a drum. Not sure how much spring it can handle though, spring retainer looks cheap.
Or maybe just forgo an stick with a p90, which is on order somewhere over the ocean.
Need another to add to my collection, currently in love with bullpup/cqb type blasters.

@DocBob Bob. Looking to improve the ROF on my JUND/CYMA CQB. Was wondering what faster motor you found suited them best? Thanks
Were you on reddit with this? You canāt really (although @DocBob would know if anyone does).
You need this

are you sure thatās the correct type for his needs? I think that is to fit m4s and saws, I donāt think it will fit in a L1A1 SLR because of the square kinda bit that the trigger is housed in, i think he needs a V3 or AK style gearbox, like the j11/12 because it doesnāt have that square trigger housing thing and the SLRs and FALs you buy all have v3 gearboxes, if im wrong feel free to correct me!

Hi mate, sorry for the delay in reply, been super busy as usual 
The Neo Magnet ChiHai 460 long shaft motors are an excellent balance of torque and rpm 
EDIT Apologies, but the CYMA run 460 long shaft motors, not 480ās.

I know this isnāt an AEG question butā¦
Are shotguns even practical in gelsoft? Iāve been looking to get a used CYMA S1897 shotgun and am wondering if shotguns are even worth my time compared to AEGās. If I were going to carry a shotty, I would be as a secondary or back up blaster instead of a primary.
Any input would be welcome, Cheers.
I think the idea of shotguns work excellently in gel ball as the gel balls are already pretty random and a few coming out at the same time would be great, but I donāt have any really good experience with shotguns as most of them are either impractical with expensive Shells or they are glorifyed single shots that you have to know a trick to get them too work properly, I know on the old forum some people had luck with shotguns, like dachappo had a modded m97 super shorty and some people did use stock cymas in cqb and had success but Iām sure someone who has played around with them more can give some insight
What size battery can you fit in them?
Most, as they come with an extension.
I run a 7.4v 2.2!turigy brick and a variety of 11.1v in them.
Even throw the plug and play mosfet in with the 11v sticksš
Yeah sorry mate, I would normally have a blaster to pull apart and boxes of spares to compare compatibility for anyone asking questionsā¦ā¦ but unfortunately have nothing but my foggy memories and a few old photos to offer these days 
The 480ās should fit as they are still the same bolt mount style and have the same shaft lengths on the pinion sideā¦ā¦ itās just whether the CYMA pistol grip has enough room with the motor height adjustment end to physically fit the longer length of the 480 motors 
Iām sure @Bigmuthadrums can answer your questions much better than I can right now
