Kraken AK-47 vs. Lycaon MP5

[Dusti69]

oh man. if you just open the gearbox up and just look at everything for a while til you get familiar with whats in there and after youve watched the vid i posted once or twice the contents of the gearbox arent so intimidating anymore
replacing the piston head didnt look too hard from the way they showed you in the vid but they only showed taking it off and not putting a new one on

if you think you cant do that then just buy a whole piston. i would imagine its jsut a simple swap of parts. im looking to change the one in my kraken sometime

In order to change a piston head you need to open up your mechbox.
www.mechbox.com is your friend.

you can't do both of those at the same time, you will need to open the mechbox shell to remove/replace the piston head

personally I suggest that you should get the kraken

I own it myself and it is really good. I had it for almost a year and
no problems showed up. I dont always use it but I fired about 20000 rounds
and its fine. you can get a replacement motor if it dies. im also happy that its a marui clone so you can upgrade it

Im plannin to get the drum mag from airsoftsglobal, extra batterie from buyairsoft.ca, and a metal body kit instead of the plastic from Redwolf airsoft.

Holy fuck, what is it today with noobs ressurecting dead threads? Geez guys. Take a look at the last post date. If it's over a month old, don't bring it up unless you have some significant or valuable information to add.

As for the battery, NEVER get the shit they sell from buyairsoft.ca. All their airsoft stuff is overpriced and garbage. As for the metal body, you can't order any metal bodies from outside the country, as they will get seized by customs.

Go with the kraken no question it looks great, its sturdy, reliable and ive shot thousands of rounds with one jam( testing how long till fully auto jams)

There you have it.

EDIT: Damnit too slow.

[Dusti69]

so im guessing redwolf doesnt sell metal recievers? or if they do it wont make it over the border?

[Crunchmeister]

Correct. Metal receivers will be seized by customs.
