KA tanker M4

[Creature]

Hey whats everyones thoughts on King arms tanker M4? I just picked one up the other day and personally i love it! what you think would be good for upgrades? Also whats your thoughts on the SRC dragon C8, i know its not that great but also whats recommended for upgrades on it?

Thanks

I like it. I picked one up too. Very high quality compared to my age of yore TM m4 with barrel wobble. I dare say its higher quality, of course decades later and in full metal body.

I am looking to change the charging handle to an ambidextrous one. I find the current charging handle with the extension actually protrudes too much and knocks on things. So I might change that to a Rainier Arm's style ambidextrous charging handle.

Then its your usual choice of optics, etc depending on personal preference. I threw in a stubby vertical foregrip, Magpul BUIS, rail covers, red dot, PEQ box. Top rail is fully utilized. Basically a squished and condensed/busy version of a full sized AEG. Nice wall hanger.

Isn't it a little late to be asking for opinions and reviews if you've already bought the gun?

[Creature]

no. i liked the guns im just asking what people think about it. Simply just that.

yeah i got a stubby for it and im lookin to get a red dot or holo with atleast 1x magnification on it.

I enjoy the full metal body on it. I went to TAC14 and i knew i was gunna get a gun at some point that day but i bought it at TorontoAirsoft, at there new location. I knew i should have picked up more gear at the gearswap, they had some decent stuff.... Idk why i didnt, whatever though..

The KA Tanker is pretty good quality.

I basically run it as a mini ultra condensed version of my larger normal sized AR. Looks great next to each other as contrast. Looks like you yourself have that going based on the same color scheme. Mine is black but the same concept.

I'm looking at maybe getting the stubby stock too for the tanker. The current stock is smaller than most stocks already, but G&P makes an even stubbier stock.

Yeah i got that colour scheme goin and works pretty well, i like it. Its such a badass little gun!

I dont know, i wouldnt be so much interested in a stubbier stock myself but that would make it more condensed/compact machine and more manoeuvrable. I might get a different grip for it but keeping the same colour scheme.

Yeah, to each their own depending on taste. I make mine as a mini version just for kicks that I hang next to my full sized one. Almost replica as far as rail addons.

It seems to shoot pretty hot out of the box. Maybe 400fps on 0.2g. Did you run a chrono for it? I don't have a chrono on hand to test it. But mine is more of a wall hanger so I don't really care how well it performs.

No i didnt chrono it but they marked it down as shooting 407 fps. so not good for indoor games but thats alright i play outdoors mostly

1. Stop using it. Otherwise you can have fun scraping the internals.

2. Charge your battery fully. Clear any apparent jams. Usually when that has happened in my past it means the gearbox is locked or the battery isn't charged enough to spin the motor.

3. If nothing is working out. Get in contact with a gun doctor. Don't ever do full auto -- this rule I gave myself helped me so much. I do not mean the setting, I mean do short controlled burst to avoid obvious jams and lockups.

4. understand that when you shoot on semi you need to be doing full trigger pulls. Trying to "double tap" your semi fire mode gives it a higher chance to lockup.

5. In the experience with king arms, you need to make sure your not muffing your motor. If you gave an 11.1v tricked out battery and are running the stock box, your going to have a bad time.

Okay thanks. i have a fully charged 9.6v battery in the gun. i always use short controlled bursts.

Well, if that's the case... I suggest if you cannot figure it out yourself, perhaps get in contact with a gun doctor. I don't know too much, speaking from my previous experience. Good luck, hope you can still come out this Sunday.
