What is this?
27 October, 2010, 11:49
just got my desert warrior through! lovely looking gun and feel is good too have no gas so cant try it out but regardless! back to the topic in hand.
in a little bag there where two little plastic bits that slot into the top of the spring guide in the mag. there are instructions but there in foreign so does anyone know what these little plastic bits are? or am i being stupid once again
thanks guys!

Re: Wht the hell is this?
So does it reduce the mags capacity when inserted? Or is It just one follower, like on all GBBs?

Re: Wht the hell is this?
Don't you use it to load your mag? TM 1911's normally come with that sort of thing, it clips in under the mag and holds the spring down so you can fill it without keeping your finger on the latch

Re: Wht the hell is this?
as foxhound said. its a mag loader, you use it to drag down the follower to load the mag..
no more broken nails

Re: Wht the hell is this?

Re: Wht the hell is this?
i know people like racking it with the mag in could it be for that? its definitely not a follower it doesn't reach the top of the mag so the bb's wont either but what it does do is hold the original follower down so maybe you can rack it without it locking back? no idea!

Re: Wht the hell is this?
it looks to me like a spare mag spring top. The part that sits on top of the spring, and pushes the bbs up the mag. If thats the 'follower' (not sure what that is!) it could just be a spare one?

Re: Wht the hell is this?
I thought it was for display purposes, removes the gun's slide catch's purpose, it disable the slide locking back for that magazine.

Re: Wht the hell is this?
a friend says it is to reduce magazine capacity for use in cold weather so it will cycle all loaded shots instead of leaving some in the magazine
trading WE M16A1 for CYMA or RS SVD with PSOP

Re: Wht the hell is this?
If it disables the slide lock, it could be useful for making movies. The gun could be fired with just gas without the slide locking back.
