Reticles are presented as figures of "bird" and "point" ....
P1010058
They are lit simultaneously. "Point" were shot at a distance of 100m. "Birdie" - at 200m.
The sight has both manual as well as automatic brightness adjustment sighting marks (light sensor - a window behind the lens) ...
P1010021

When "0" position mode switch corresponds night operation scope.
Automatic adjustment of brightness sighting marks corresponds to the position of the switch to "1" to "4."
Re-ranging nastrela required after 360 shots.
The kit includes sight bag, hang on now ...
P1010012 P1010013
It has many services for batteries, wipes, lens hood and a screwdriver ...
P1010014
The main compartment holds a very proper scope, and blend ...
P1010015 P1010024
For fixing the sight on the weapon type has a strip of "dovetail" ...

Dining sight by two lithium cells B5 LT 14250
Batteries of course Rare, and the shelf life of those who complete with sights, expired last year.
Kind of like comrades suggest alternatives :
618_0
Temperature range, which are even higher than in the domestic counterparts.
There is another substitute :
ls14250
And on " The ideal "- at half the price.
So - to aim to work, it is necessary that there were batteries.
Batteries available. It remains to find the hole, into which the battery stuff.
And finding it is not easy. Because the details even   vaguely reminiscent of the battery cover is not immediately notice ...
As that gopher from "DMB":
"... - And he (ie, cover) - is ..."
And do not even cover and the battery hatch.
What is this defiantly sticking two screws leaf springs?
P1010060

And this is the mechanism of fixing the battery hatch.
By the way there is the technical description of the sight picture, the cover on which is fixed a flat, horizontal bolt. Perhaps this is one of the modifications,   Supplied with CP-2.
In the manual there is adequate sight picture with the gun's serial number range "033". In this scope, the stopper is on the left side of the body ...
S0

Open the hatch ...
P1010061

Observe   two spring-loaded pins, rough machined working surfaces. To insert the battery right requires skill, strength, and a certain amount of luck, as the spring at the contact rather rigid, and free play is pretty small ...
P1010029
Batteries are installed. Cover is closed. The sight is mounted on the gun.
To enable the sight to be moved to select the desired position.
Box itself moves pretty tight and has too flat lever ....
P1010055
Moreover, the inclusion of sight too has a nearby stop sticking out of sight ...
P1010059
To operate the sight in sufficient light switch is put in the position of "4" or "3".
In low light conditions the recommended position - "2" or "1".
For shooting using night vision goggles - the "0."
The sight has a manual brightness adjustment sighting marks, and automatic. Why is it so difficult - is unclear.
Note the flywheel lock adjustment. In originality, they do not yield the battery cover lock hatch.
During familiarization with the gun was discovered that on one "Heathers" no dick butt formed, resting in sight ...
P1010064
Check the position of the sight - all right, he pushed all the way ...
P1010065
On examination, the other received a gun - guns are no problems with the folding butt was found.
The owner decided to issue arms dramatically. Since the complete gun - no gun file holder (for processing), it is simply defraud butt harder, and taking shavings from sight, folded butt ...
P1010066
Then repeat the procedure in reverse order.
But at this mishap   not over.
When zeroing two of the three guns - guns gave misfire.
The reason - the weak pinned.
On one copy of the nine designated to fire rounds pinned tri.Povtorny gave misfire did not help.
One pack of cartridges. In order to remove the blame from the cartridges, loaded them with another "Heather."
He is "digested" "kosyachnye" cartridges   no problems.
In general, the reliability of Russian arms in recent years I was very disappointed. And given the profile of my work - very worried.
The first sign was the TL.
Some of the instances of our seventh year misfire (after re-pinned yet   followed by a shot), and stuck the sleeve during shooting for pulegilzoteki.
New guns, right out of the box. Brushed and oiled. True, at the factory. Munitions - sports (martial for shooting are not given)
I read online that all the trouble with PCOS - from defective cartridges.
The representatives of the plant on retreats grease guns users molybdenum grease.
So the question is - why, and what the hell for service received military pistol, by definition, a mass for the normal functioning of which require almost exemplary cartridges and special grease?
And what a dick in the design of the "modern" gun missing lever reset hammers, and is there no one wants (can athletes?) Function setting gun to fuse with the hammer cocked? Feature that was relevant for pistols with single action.
Personally, I have mastered the process smoother shutter trigger, so to speak from childhood. And pull the trigger in this way only, without using a fuse (for ABS).
But with PCOS I worry a lot more than usual :) What to speak of other employees, not so experienced in this difficult matter :)
Some do not even advance shall be sent round in the chamber due to difficulties with safety shutter trigger for TL.
And a friend of mine and decided to put a pistol with the hammer cocked to the fuse babahnul accidentally during the operation. Forgetting about the features of this gun.
And just hand in these cartridge into the chamber in PCOS, by shallow corrugations on the walls of the gate - the more fun. Especially frozen hands or if the surface is lubricated bolt.
Second swallow - the icon of the domestic weapons.
AK.
That - it is advertised descendant - AK74M.
All of our machines units were obtained in 1993.
91go weapons and basically 92go of release.
So far not received any new AK74M.
The replacement to get some second-hand machines and past repair issue 95th, 96go, 97go of release.
Even the old machines nastrel relatively small.
And now, for some time of our automatic dual epidemic of shots.
Cup I passed, but fate dealt me a blow to the heart ...
During one operation happened in my misfire.
Immediately reloaded the machine, I pulled the trigger.
Empty.
Another recharge.
The result is - well.
Before I begin to realize that I do not hear clicks descent trigger and the trigger as it is not so back on. That is, almost no returns.
Returned to "the bench."
Examined selected cartridges.
No traces pinned.
Decided that overheated spring.
Shot out like a few shops in a row, however, a single lamp.
But the machine - the old, a little - whether that ...
Decided to give the machine to cool down.
Cooled machine made ​​one shot.
And silent. The hammer did not move back.
For the production of graying shot had hooked a finger pressing forward.
Because such a "hockey" I did not need, I "bummed" another gun and continued ...
Upon returning to base, I changed the whole trigger assembly and machine "earned."
But the sediment remained ...
A belief in the most reliable machine cracked.
We return to SR2M. And to his sight.
Ten years ago, if this was a sight I had, I would be very happy.
But now, like a 21, and sight to the characteristics of the hero of our story well, not exactly one of the best.
Then a friend of mine at the Hansa, who worked by the manufacturer SR-2, expressed the view that comparable   characteristics of sight should never find ...
Well, let's search ...
The main criterion for selection of sight to install it on CP2 - the width.
The width of the KP-CP2 is 33mm, which allows the sight to enter the cut butt folded.
The second criterion - the price.
That's according to this criterion, we may assume that the KP CP2 - the world's best sights.
The purchase price SR2M without red dot scope - 88 206 rubles. 2009m in the year.
The purchase price SR2M with dot sight KP CP2 -132 023.12 rubles. In 2012.
We assume that the approximate price of a gun - gun - a hundred thousand rubles, given the possible differences in the prices of different years of procurement.
The remaining thirty two thousand rubles. It turns out that about the same amount bought sight.
And what sights we can choose, for thirty two thousand, given the restriction on dimensions?
Choose from the same type of "open" collimator sights.

Delta Point Reflex Sight
DeltaPoint_Angle_web-530x338
In the limit of price and size fit with a vengeance.
Width of 30mm.
For crashworthiness - sight is designed for shooting with pistols and rifles.
Temperature range - more than enough. From -29 ° C to + 40 ° C.
Reliability.   Here is one manufacturer's name speaks for itself.
Powered by a lithium "the pill" in 2032 with longer battery life.
Trijicon RMR ®
opplanet-trijicon-rmr-led-3pt25-moa-red-dot-sight-blk-pic-rail-mount-rm01-33-front-v1
Width - from 28 to 30 mm, depending on the modification.
Operating temperature range - from -40 ° C to +49 ° C.
Storage temperature range - 40 ° C to + 71 ° C
Battery Life "2032" - from two to five years.
DOCTER ® sight II plus
1_DOCTERsightII_vorn_672x488_fb60e2aaee
DOCTER ® sight III
1_DOCTERsightIII_672x488_7d91b05c1d
Width - 25.4 mm
Operating temperature range - from -25 ° C to +55 ° C
Storage temperature range - 40 ° C to + 70 ° C
Used battery - "2032"
Opening hours on one battery - up to two years.
Almost all of these sights have a price below the bar at twenty thousand, half the length, and the batteries that can be purchased at almost any store.
Well, about the power at all to say no ...
If you can live with dimensions of sight and inability folding shoulder rest - and there are many Eotekov Eympoyntov. Any one of them head and shoulders above any domestic collimator.
For example - Empoynt Micro T-1 or H -1

0002-707df3cde6
50 000 hours on a single lithium "pills.
Temperature Range   -30 ° - +60 ° C, and at the T-1 - from   -45 ° to +71 ° C.
High impact resistant features that allow to set this target on any portable weapons from pistols to hunting rifles chambered, developing high blood pressure ...
P1120308
Another brand.
The sight is mounted on the hub with bars, screw on the muzzle of the barrel.
Controversial decision, but the width of sight does not allow add / expand the butt.
Therefore, in this case, users have found the installation so ...
sr-2-veresk-3
I remember some time ago, I was unhappy that the Interior Ministry had purchased "Heathers" without collimators.
Now, go and get the KP CP2 better, I do not even know - glad you did not buy them ...
It is time our designers to keep up with the times. Apparently, they do not fully have felt   all the charm of "nanotechnology" promoted at one time lover "Ogryzkov."
But in extreme cases, buy a license from the Swedes .
It's time for the "Heather" is taken.
For example, in my department,   comrades, not zamorochennye such as I, at the first "acquaintance" with the "Heather" note uncomfortable anchoring by unnecessarily long butt.
In general, it normalnoyi style = length ... in normal layout weapons.
But the layout of "store in the handle"   to   stock length is added distance from the handle to the butt plate box automation.
As a result of fire with buttstock and using   front grip has a highly elongated left hand ...
The situation is reminiscent of the ready to be fired from a grenade launcher while wearing butt to butt and wearing body armor on the shooter. Else fun ...
If this feature of the weapon is considered a problem, then, in my opinion, there are several   solutions:
1. - shorten the stock and use a different method of fixation in the folded position. Of course, for such an option would have to develop a more compact collimator sight, at least shorter. Or the old shift the joy (buying sight) on the shoulders of the user.
2 - Use a mobile joint stock with the automatic box, so that in a combat situation shoulder rest could "hang" on the automatic box. The sight would have to use the other. Shorter.
3 --- use   foldaside shoulder rest. Of course, it will increase the size of the transverse arms   but times have concealed carry weapons fell into oblivion and people now prefer to dress and arm themselves "to the full."
----- Do nothing   as "other options have drawbacks butts."
Illustration from "Weapons" ...
ср
Why not change the layout?
Usually the standard layout is not too bad. Almost all major parts remain the same. Only need to rebuild USM, forearm and pistol grip, making it, along with the receiver store and trigger guard assembly as a single unit.
Of course,   layout "store in the handle" allows you to shoot with one hand, but also from small machines with one hand is also quite impossible. And much of the lighter PP - even more so.
But in normal layout:
- Disappear any problems with anchoring
- Center of gravity forward of the weapon goes hand needle, which can increase some patterning queues
- There is a possibility   connect the two - three stores
- Perhaps this will be the first PP (not counting itself CP2) with the collimator and the folding up the butt.
There's an easier way.
Conversion of CP-3 and CP-3M pistol gun.
But here in the first place there is the price, so   as receiver of these machines - milled.
However, this is not so important for procurement.

"Continuous offensive operations have run the advancing Russian forces
ragged. Attacking at the limit of their supply lines, and the fierce
resistance from determined NATO units, has slowed the momentum of the
Russian attack. As the Russian forces approach close to Pigtopolis and
complete encirclement of NATO 1st ICT, TF Coolguy prepares to attempt a
counter attack to reverse the Russian advances and open the way for a
linkup between 1st ICT and NATO reserves. The foreboding mountains and
woods of the Aredems forest stand between the Russian advance and
Pigtopolis. A well coordinated counterattack here could change the
outcome of the entire conflict."

"There is a job to do!" SWAT AMIA at Kurgan Region

Field output SWAT AMIA the Kurgan region. November-December 2012

Review: WE AK74 UN (by Gruppa-L)

 
The WE AK74 UN is another AK variant, recently released in Germany. And it really is surprisingly good! Why?
Since Logisticz did a review on the WE/RA-tech AK 47 PMC (which is similar to the WE AK74 UN on most parts) last week, I highly recommend you to read it also:
Review: WE/RA-tech AK47 PMC
The gun arrives in a cheap and plain cardboard box. There are no markings at all despite a little sticker, which indicates that this is a AK74 UN and not a AK 47 PMC. I wish they would deliver their Airsofts in foam type gun-case like APS, but I guess WE tries to keep the price low.
However as soon as you pick up the gun and insert magazine you, will forget about the lack of this.

The gun is made from stamped or cnc-ed steel parts only, except the trigger mechanism. This is why the gun (with a mag) weights in at a hefty 3.3 kilograms.
There is not any wobble or such on the gun. Only the magazine moves a bit, which is typical for any AK (including real steel ones)
It really feels rock solid, there is no play in the butt-stock in either the extended or folded position.
All important screws are secured with lock-tight, so I don’t think any of the parts will become loose. This would else wise happen very fast due to the high recoil.
It is nice to see how WE improves on their build quality. Compared to their prior guns, this thing really shines.
 
The handguard reassembles a real-steel one, which is made by Aresnal INC.
Again the quality is pretty good – the pistol grip and the handguard are made out of polyamide and not abs plastic.
You can replace them with real wood and bakelit parts of course, if you want to go for a more classic look.
 
I find the iron sights to be pretty decent. You can not change the zeroing, but on mine and two other AK74UN in our team they are already zeroed in perfectly. However I read about people having issues with a too low zeroing. Though I can not confirm then, I still remember the problem from older models by WE.
Another issue might be the pretty low rate of fire. There is a ‘fix’ by RA-tech, which brings it back to around 700rpm like the real steel has. To archive this rof (= rate of fire) The fix/mod shortens the bolt travel length. Since this also reduces the recoil and fully-automatic firemode is forbidden in Germany anyway, I did not bother at all.
 
The magazine is made out of metal also, but resets in a plastic sleeve. I would have liked if they reinforced it with metal strips, since there is quite a bit of stress on the on the fastening parts. I can already tell, that the plastic will wear off over the years.
The magazine has a pin to switch between the ‘no-fire when empty’ and the old ‘alway fire’ mode. Quite handy for test-firing.
Operating this thing is like the real deal. Insert the magazine, switch the fire selector and rack the cocking handle.
 
Airsofts guns need to have some legal markings in Germany. They are lasered to the receiver below the chamber.
The hop-up can be changed very easy on-the-fly without any tools! Just lock the bolt back, using the notch on the fire selector, and twist the adjustment ring.
Field stripping is also very similar to the real deal. Press down the rear of the recoil rod and lift up the upper receiver. Then press the rod in, twist it by 180° and remove the recoil rod/spring assembly. Finally pull back the gas block an lift it out.
 
As I mentioned before, the trigger unit is the only part not made out of steel. Its made from pot metal, which is unfortunately usual for WE. Yet RA-Tech offers replacement cnc steel  parts. So either use the original parts until they break, or replace them right away.
Speaking about RA-Tech, another thing you will definitely need is the NPAS, because the initial power is a bit high. Though they stated that the OpenBolt NPAS will not fit to the AK74UN, it does. Probably just a hoax. Now you can dial in the FPS to meet the requirements of you playing site also.
This Airsoft is dead accurate without any modifications. I actually bought a RA-tech hop-up rubber, but did not install it. If you try to tune it any further you might as well just ruin the accuracy. That is why I will stick to the stock barrel and hop-up.
Cooldown will away be an issue on any GBB, but you will be able to shoot a whole mag on full auto without problems. Of course it all dependents on the temperature and humidity.
All in all this Airsoft is the best WE has made so far – in my opinion at least.
It is well made, extremely durable (if you replace the few pot metal parts), dead accurate and has a huge kick …and loud sounding, hard recoiling Airsofts guns always put a smile on my face!
