Magpul P.T.S. Masada GBBR

[Amadem]

Nie wiadomo jeszcze czy będzie sprzedawana jako Drop In kit do AEG czy jako kompletna replika.

 

 

[1beduin]

To bardzo miła wiadomość.

Ciekawe czy mechanizm wytrzyma CO2, czy trzeba będzie zainwestować 150$?

Głupie pytanie, czy pasuje do repliki od A&K?

[Guest gecko123]

Raczej nie, tam jest chyba zupełnie inne mocowanie lufy i sporo różnic w środku.

[Guest (ID:6452)]

Widzę mocno "klasyczne" rozwiązania, bardziej przypominające klamki z BB niż karabinki np WE. To bardzo dobrze wróży.

Magna czy tylko mi się zdaje?

Nie zdaje ci się, to Magna.

Konwersja dedykowana jest do AEG'a PTS Magpul.

Recenzja z GGI:

 

Magpul PTS Masada/ACR:

Masada or ACR' date=' whatever you call it - it's American designed and American made. Ingeniously built off already tried and true existing premises. A gas piston operated, air cooled, shoulder fired, magazine fed assault rifle with the capability of changing caliber with a few part swaps. Developed by Magpul, purchased by Bushmaster and Remington Military, the Masada became the ACR and became an actual reality and not just a concept design.

 

The PTS version of the Masada has all the correct proportions and mimics the Bushmaster version very closely. It has a price tag much higher on the spectrum than most Airsoft AEG rifles. This is because it's supposedly made of the same polymer that Magpul uses in it's development of real steel parts. I'd believe it too! The AEG, while I never fired it, feels incredibly sturdy and solid. It has all the right trades in the right places. So even if this review is about the Gas Blow Back conversion, anyone who is interested in picking up a PTS Masada, when it comes to the externals of the weapon, it's top shelf. The motor and all that bollocks, I have no idea and could care this. This about the gas. :D

 

[b']Beta Project GBB Conversion Kit - First Impressions:[/b]

The kit seems very well put together. The fire selector is nice and tight and clicks firmly into the proper mode of fire. The parts that are metal are made of an aluminum... nice and lightweight. A nice contrast to the steel barrel of my WE M4. The polymer parts are strong and when squeezed, have no give to them - just like one would expect of any Magpul Part.

 

 

 

 

Installation: (Took 20 Minutes total...)

• Remove AEG Lower, then remove stock from lower...
  
• Remove hand guard and barrel from upper receiver...
  
• The upper receiver need to have the charging handle spring removed.
  
• Then remove the charging handle from the charging handle mech. There's a little hole in the rail to access if you're not familiar with the weapon.
  
• Unscrew the 4 Screws from the trunnion. 2 on both sides. There are also two pins that need to be tapped out. This might be the hardest part of the installation. Use a punch set to reduce damaging the upper or the trunnions.
  
• Install the GBB Trunnion. 4 screws and 2 pins.
  
• Install new GBB Barrel into trunnion.
  
  
• Remove receiver pin from upper receiver to slide in charging handle mech and bolt carrier group & guide spring.
   
  
  
• Install front pivot pit of lower receiver to the upper.
   
  
  
• Install stock to the rear of the receiver. We're preparing to close the receiver shut. Almost done... Pins might be a bit tight, but they will line up if you've installed your parts correctly.
   
  
  
• Attach upper receiver to your stock...
   
  
  
• You can now either function check and load the weapon now in order to have access to the hop-up OR you can install the front had guard and you're done.
   
  

* Installation Notes:

You shouldn't need to sand the upper receiver. The BCG is a bit of a tight fit when sliding in to the upper. But once you install the lower, the box containing all your lower internals is slightly wider the the upper and will allow the bolt carrier group to cycle properly. This could be on purpose, this could be coincidence, this could be just my particular kit. When the lower is removed, the BCG wants to no longer slide easily. So do not fret if things feel tight.

 

If you discover during your function check of the weapon that the BCG doesn't want to cycle properly, you then may want to consider sanding some of the contact points between the upper and the lower.

 

Function Check the Weapon!

Once it's all put together, function check your new honey badger.

 

• Safe and clear your weapon...
  
• With the weapon on safe - squeeze the trigger. Nothing should happen.
  
• Put the weapon on semi; squeeze the trigger and hold it to the rear.
  
• Pull back on the charging handle then slowly release the trigger. You should feel and hear a "clunk." Your hammer resets properly.
  
• Put the weapon on Full-Auto; squeeze the trigger and hold it to the rear.
  
• Slowly release the trigger, again there should be a clunk.
  
• Put the weapon back on safe. You're good-to-go.

** If you're going to store the weapon for a bit, rack safe it to save on spring life. Safe and clear your weapon. Put the weapon on Semi, squeeze the trigger. Weapon is now "rack safe."

 

 

 

Test Firing:

Using 1 G&P P-mag (seen loaded in the above picture) I took it to the backyard for a quick test firing. The weapon fires amazing! The sound is loud and crisp and the recoil is comparable to any WOC or Inokatsu GBBR M4 - easy! But because the bolt is more forward and not underneath your cheek weld, it feels like it easier to control and the felt recoil isn't as drastic to bring you off target. It feels good in your shoulder when fired.

 

The hop at 25 feet is dead on with the hop turned all the way off. I really want be able to judge the accuracy of the hop up until I get into the field for Broken Home, where I'll have a guarantee that I will be engaged in firefights out past 200 feet. One thing D-Day doesn't disappoint on is distance and people who know their weapons will Kentucky Windage there shots from forever away. But for now - the hop seems promising for longer ranger engagements.

Is it worth the money?

Two words: F$&^ Yeah! Anyone experienced in the pains of owning a Gas Blow Back rifle knows what cons to expect. Cool down being first or at least a close second. And if you're well exposed to magazine maintenance procedures, you'll avoid leaking pitfalls in the future. So what else is there? Cost. It always boils down to money. For some it boils down to having a system that they can use in multiple parts of the country (or world, whatever Swedes.) and the answer to that is simple: the Masada does not require any modifications that prevent you from removing the GBB conversion. So when winter comes (Love Game of Thrones!) - you'll be able to throw back all the AEG components back into your receiver and you're ready to rock & roll.

• Magpul PTS Masada (Not the A&K Garbage) - $480 New
  
• Beta Project GBB Conversion Kit - $238 + Shipping
  
• G&P Magazines or WA Style Equivelant - $50 per Magazine + Shipping

So is it worth it? Yes. If you have the means, this is the Honey Badger of Airsoft Weaponry. Magpul PTS products are pricey, but you're getting Magpul quality parts. So that's a "Win". Then you get the realism a lot of people look for in Milsim. Another "win" for me at least. And if for whatever reason I need to play in the northern part of the country in cold weather, I have an AEG.

 

Conclusion:

If you love GBBR's - you have to get it. There's nothing to not love. I am a little worried about the wear that is starting to show on the BCG, but the bolt catch differs greatly from the M4/M16 style and looks as if it will still function even with the marring that is occurring on the right side of the BCG. I look forward to fielding this weapon at Broken Home.

Hej.

Ktoś próbował już strzelać z tego?

I jak z CO2? Można już od razu używać czy trzeba wsadzać dodatkową kasę.

[Amadem]

Używanie CO2 na znalowym suwadle i plastikowym Nozzle to nienajlepszy pomysł..

[Grey Fox]

Hej,

 

Wrzucę coby zbiorczo wszystko było - filmik z newsów od AngryGun:

 

 

Pozdrawiam

[tomazo1974]

Cześć. Temat zarosły kurzem, ale może coś więcej wiecie już w kwestii tej konwersji. Czy ktoś ma/miał/testował? Jak to wygląda w praktyce? Rozumiem, że działa w dwie strony tzn. powrót do AEGa jest możliwy?

W Cebulandii dostępność pewnie zerowa, jak mniemam?

T.

[Nath]

Konwersja na AEG jest możliwa. Bolą magazynki w systemie WA-te tanie to chłam, te dobre są drogie jak cholera (Pmagi G&P, Prowiny). Miałem kiedyś w rękach. Jak masz $$$ na Masadę PTS+$$$ na konwersję+$$$ na magazynki i gaz to frajda jest. Nie sądziłem że to napiszę, ale chyba wolałbym kupić pseudomasadę WE-95% ludzi i tak nie ogarnie różnicy, a magazynki są tanie i dobre i nieźle udają pmagi.

[tomazo1974]

Właśnie ogarniam temat WE. Generalnie jest tam też trochę fuckupów, które po czasie wychodzą. Tego się właśnie obawiam, bo jak na razie gaziaki to dla mnie terra incognita. Pewnie jednak jak uderzę w tym kierunku to będzie WE.
