I was just surprised. All those little $20/$50 bits add up fast, haha.

Worst thing about airsoft is after having spent all that $$$, you're never done and end up replacing half the shit you bought in the first instance...
Yay for softing of the air!

I've been tempted now and then to photograph the amount of stuff I have and post it on ASNZ but I'm pretty sure I'll break the intehwebz.

Once you start buying crap it's impossible to stop.

In case anyone's interested, I went through and rated the rice I've got. Some of the bits are awful, some of them are great. Might help anyone with a Hi Capa who wants to know what's good and what's WE-level junk.

Spreadsheet.

Re: First AEG: I know you said to get a Marui...

Actual AEG chat. Flazz, here's the list for pre-approval:

Prometheus EG Barrel 363mm
Prometheus Stainless Hard Cylinder Type B
Prometheus Shims Set
Prometheus Hard Selector Plate Metal
SHS Enhanced Steel Gear Set
Prometheus Air Seal Chamber Packing
Prometheus Aero Cylinder Head
Prometheus Air Seal Nozzle
Prometheus Hard Piston
Prometheus Piston Head
MagicBox 5.9mm Bushing Set

I think that's everything. Then furniture is:

Madbull Daniel Defence Licensed M4A1 12.5 Inch RIS II (Black)
Magpul MIAD Pistol Grip
Magpul CTR Stock

Re: First AEG: I know you said to get a Marui...

Just make sure your piston, piston head, cylinder head, nozzle and gears are for next gen v2. The piston needs to be for the m4 series not the scar.

Re: First AEG: I know you said to get a Marui...

Yeah it was all listed for Next Gen series and specifically M4's where possible. Nate said to get the SHS High Torque motor, do I need the long or the short one?

Ordered so far:

Prometheus EG Barrel 363mm for M4A1, SR16, SG551
Prometheus Stainless Hard Cylinder Type B for Marui AEG
Prometheus Shims Set
Prometheus Hard Selector Plate Metal New Ver.2 for TM SOPMOD M4
Madbull Daniel Defence Licensed M4A1 12.5 Inch RIS II (Black)

When my paycheck hits tonight/tomorrow I'll source the rest.

edit: The piston head is PR-4560329175101 on redwolfairsoft. Is that the right one?
edit2: Which SHS Gear Set is it? This place has the best selection I can find: Airsoft Helper

Long motor. You can get them from reapertech if they're out of stock in china.

Re: First AEG: I know you said to get a Marui...

•You want a long motor.
GEARS
•Not sure about that piston, as Flazz said it has to be an SOPMOD one - that one has SCAR in the name...

Re: First AEG: I know you said to get a Marui...

It's either Piston for SOPMOD M4/SCAR-L or Piston for SCAR-L (only)

The descriptions are different for both so I'm inclined to believe the first one will be fine (since it also states it's good for SOPMOD).

And I can't find anywhere with those SHS gears in stock. The descriptions and names are different everywhere else.

edit: Derp, nevermind. Found them

This is the one for the M4. The SCAR one has the cut out section at the top of the piston cos the recoil unit sits above the gearbox on the SCAR.
