Perfect fit for the Specna Arms SA X01 gearbox!!
The build quality of this hop is 2nd to none
While it does say it mates up to the LCT OEM gear box I did have to file the front tabs to get it slide into place.
The opening for the front GB tab on the hop is 5.2mm the LCT tabs when together measure in at 5.7mm. (make sure you file them evenly to keep the hop centered on the main line of the GB)
I paired mine with the Black SA nub, SA 19.7mm nozzle, 70⁰ maple leaf super Mac bucking and a 550mm 6.03 barrel. My groupings at effective range (RPK at 1.8j) were much tighter. I also felt that the trajectory was much flatter.
I will be swapping this hop into all my personal AK platform replicas
Highly recommend
Bottles are easy to use and store once you are finished using them. Epoxy holds well under high stress builds when using it to secure your piston rack. Work and cure times are ideal
I replaced a Maple Leaf Macaron bucking in my MTW with this and it has provided a noticeable improvement in bb groupings at 50yds and further. The consistency has been VERY impressive. I will definitely be purchasing more of these to have on hand to replace in the rest of my replicas as the current buckings wear out.
Lightweight and solid feeling compared to the stock gearbox in my APS extremis. Worth the pretty pennies I paid!
This shell did NOT fit in anything I put it in. I have several VFC’s, an Echo 1, Krytac, Cyma, and a G&P. The shell is just too thick to properly fit inside the lower receiver of all my guns, without really forcing it.
That aside, if you are fortunate enough to have a receiver that can fit the shell, then I would definitely recommend. It’s a true reinforced gearbox shell and has a custom, tapered tapper plate due to the extra material on the inside of the shell.
This definitely is the most durable gearset you can get for a buy once cry once. The extra step in gear ratio still gives you an average of 24-25ms of cycle time without pre-cocking while being more durable and less stressful to your Motor and Bearings compared to high speed gearsets in a lower gear ratio. I definitely recommend trying these out whenever they restock! The biggest plus is the super low AMP Draw in a DSG. I pull an average of 20A on Semi and 17A in auto.
For replicas that have no options for optical mosfets (or if you just don't want one), this is a good option. Compared to other mosfets that bypass the trigger contacts, these appear to have better energy efficiency.
I bought this item to help fix a semi auto cutoff lever issue that was being very persistent, and it worked wonderfully. The instructions and video support are great to make installing properly easy, and it comes with some spare bits if you make a mistake during the installation. Settings are easy to adjust, and very useful. i honestly think this has a fantastic value for what it adds to your replica.
This does not fit in VFC Avalon series guns without modification. You are going to have to take a few millimeters off of the edges inside face of the mag catch to make this mag release work in the body. It's a bummer, yes, but that's just the life of building and customizing airsoft stuff. 15 minutes on a file and It now works flawlessly.
Other than that, the construction and material of the mag catch are light and efficient. Nice fat catch now makes all of my mags fit in my Avalon without any fuss or drop outs. The finish on the unit leave a little to be desired, but It really doesn't matter now that I've hit it with a file.
I would recommend if you don't mind a little bit of filing.
Used it last weekend damn good product
Putting up with heavy use nicely, combined with a 20tpa motor in a Krytac Vector Gen1. Quieter than straight cut gears, but requires bushings to put up with the axial thrust generated by the helical gears.
This doesn't get enough love. I recently did a comparison test using a M16 with 510mm barrel and M120 spring @ 1.45j. Did it with the pdi w hold and maple leaf mr hop, both 70° variants. I can say with certainly the pdi is the better deal. Just eyeballing it, range was about the same, but accuracy on the pdi was better, and there were fewer number of flyers vs the mr hop. According to some of the top dmr experts, a thick patch like maple leaf is only effective with greater fps, like 450+, but I dont have a "dmr" to test that theory. For only $7.5, this definitely wins the standard bucking championship for anything that nots a maple leaf, flat hop, or r hop. Its design seals nicely and I cannot stress this enough, is very easy to center. Its also much better than anything reaps. I noticed the older reaps a+ tries to hybridize the thick patch of a maple leaf with the split "V" of a pdi, but I only ever got mediocre accuracy (tried 60 & 70° over 3 different aegs). That was years ago, and the new reaps are not as thick, too thin even, but still hard to center and just not good unfortunately.
Moral of the story, if youre like me and have AEGs under 1.5j, pay half the price of a maple leaf nub combo and get this pdi. You may have to trim depending on how tight it fits. Works fine with a regular solid cylindrical nub but works best with flat hop nub.
Laylax (and guarder) is especially good at sticking to the TM standard. I have a JG G36C that was struggling to get above 400 fps. At first I installed the lonex aug nozzle which helped a little. This nozzle is 100% the same as the oem nozzle except with O-ring. Fps jumped to 430 after install and I couldn't be happier.
Best for the price.
Slightly thicker/wider than the other o-rings I've compared to, enables you to have slightly looser clearances between the piston head/cylinder without losing air seal
I've modified several of these to fit non-standard gearboxes, and in every case they've still been far stronger than the oem plates.
This CH resolves all of the issues from the FPS ones. It increases the diameter of the steam and removes the front padding. It fits Retro shells well and VFC nozzles even better. You don't need to worry about the finish of the stem wearing off on these as well. Fantastic product, especially for the price.
Shipped the same day! Everything works great and came exactly as listed! Great bunch of people at Brill, they are awesome!
Fixed 6 mags with these springs. Great replacement!!
The design needs improvement and the material is far too brittle. I have broken 3 of these even being super careful trying to slowly tighten until it barely touches the trigger.
Sorry for the inconvenience. We have new and improved Scylla adapters which are much more durable. We'd be happy to send you one for free! Please contact us.
This is definitely and awesome accuracy upgrade. Launching .40 out of my MCX GBBR 200 ft no problem. Brill Armory is a great place to buy airsoft products in my opinon. Fast shipping and very responsive customer service.
The body being CNC machined instead of just injection molded is very nice especially in super tight tolerance shells like the RA shells. Although to note the racks do need to be glued for maximum durability. I used Bob Smith Industries IC-2000. Currently running in a 37 RPS SSG at 1.3J with no issues
