hybrid time komrad zT

choice...the shyma as komrad Yariks' KalasHyma

iba nga ung pinagpala, ano

kainggit naman

hehe hirap pumile..

mga komrads. how much ba yung cyma aks74u sa market ngayon?

ck with your fav runners. ma'am amy is my fav, but there's also tuks, and we have komrad sax, a reputable seller in our midst. there are also those who service regional communities. the pm button is always available

mukhang cyma at boyi lang ang pagpipilian, masama ang hatol ng review sa arnies . puro wobble daw at hindi maayos pumutol. sabi nila eh bilhin lang daw eto kung gusto mo ng murang metal receiver

eto ung mga parte ng unicorn:



ung mga violet ay alloy sa Kalash pero steel sa unicorn. (front sight block, front trunnion, side mount plate for optics and possibly/probably rear trunnion). alloy ang outer barrel ng dalawa.

may malaking diperensya ang buttplate ng isang unit ng unicorn -- hindi nakawelding kaya madaling madiskaril. ung ibang unit eh walang ganitong diperensya.

eto ang overall conclusion ni crimson:

"Everything externally i have commented on is the result of poor workmanship

The gun can be made into a thing of beauty by:

1. Screwing on the front site properly
2. Screwing on the pistol grip properly
3. Fixing the poor excuse of a wood grip (sand down the notches and re varnish it )
4. Fixing the upper wood grip (properly folding the metal channels so it grips the wood and stops it from moving)
5. Folding the metal channels of the gas bolt so it fits and does not wobble
6. Weld the folded steel stock together at the joints instead of relying on folds
7. Somehow fix the weak stock.
8. Somehow fix the wobbly flash hider

If you could fix the above the AEG would be great, I have already started work on this and it has already started to transform into the reliable AK we all know."

opkorps, kung ACMer ka eh mani lang ayusin ang lahat ng 'yan.

eto ung comment ni djl.

"It looks and feels like it ran off a Belarus production line and went straight to a Soviet unit in Afghanistan, got captured by the mujahaddin, somehow ended up involved in the opium trade, finally got seized in a raid by Kuwaiti police, who then offered it as a token of appreciation to British troops after Desert Storm, after which it retired gracefully to spend the rest of its days in a regimental museum somewhere on the south coast. It just exudes character in a way my G36c is never, ever going to."

mateba of airsoft mechanics reports that his unicorn posted 340fps @ 15rps. although may binanggit syang konting issues, impressed sya overall. heto ang isa nyang fun video:
