Back to parts though - I went looking around for part 66 (firing pin delay stop, or whatever) - and I can't find any steel ones anymore.

Anyone have a line on these lately?

Hey guys!

I've been reading lots of forum information about our WE guns and I would like somebody with experience to clarify something.

About BB weight, ROF, BB crunching.

I'm under the impression that you can only shoot light BB (0.20) in semi or else the gun will crunch them in full auto and break hop-up/nozzle.

And you need heavy BB (0.28 - 0.30) to run full auto.

I'm planning on adjusting to 400FPS with CO2 mags. What should I use then? I wanted to go with 0.25 for stability or 0.20 for close combat (indoors). But I'm not sure anymore. I need releability!

Thanks

Go with at least .25's. I'm using .30's now.

Anyone else been able to get a 2-3 round burst while their SCAR is on Semi-auto?

I just noticed this morning that I am able to do that. All factory parts installed - but have seen some wear and use - nothing looks overly worn though.

I was thinking about asking a friend of mine who just bought one brand new to give it a try.

I can replicate it by lightly squeezing the trigger and as soon as it disengages the hammer and strikes the firing pin, if I hold it in that position, I can get usually 1-2 more rounds after the first.


Thoughts?

Personally I have not seen any issue with full auto fire... but I tend to restrict fire to 3 round bursts .. and the cooldown is not noticeable at room temperature

In the summer I had no issue with 10 round bursts at +20c

A full 30 round sustained fire burst will suffer cooldown and reduced gas pressure for the final shots.

I don't mind fps as much as rate of fire lowering. i've seen very confusing things on line some videos will cool down and struggle throught the last shots and some show the gun firing all 30 and locking back without a single sign of slowing down

I've found that using a full propane tank to load the mag yields the best results. Virtually eliminates the effects you're referring to.

Using old tanks to fill mags don't fill the mags as well as a full tank would - hence poor performance from the mag.

Hey guys,

Need some help here.

I found out that the bolt catch on my SCAR always fell off. I then realised that there is supposed to be a small spring with it. Needless to say, I lost it.

Can anybody give me the basic dimensions of that spring please? Outside Ø and length?

It is part# 099 in the WE SCAR diagram.

Thanks

[jamuke]

about a quarter inch long, and the same diam as a disposable lighter flint spring

[BIG]

Thanks. I'll try to find a replacement
