Airsoft Gun Custom Parts

I have been busy in the airsoft laboratory cooking up some custom airsoft gun parts and even some new airsoft gun designs. Hope to have most of these projects ready for upgrade customers by the spring 2010 airsoft season. I should have some pics soon of the new AK-14 Assault airsoft gun I have built.

Many gas airsoft pistol parts and AEG style parts are becoming very hard to find or obsolete. As a result we have decided to buy the machinery and begin manufacturing our own custom airsoft replacement parts right here in the USA. These parts will be listed in our Airsoft Gun Parts Catalog along with our standard airsoft gun parts as we bring the production process online.

We have currently brought a manual mill and manual lathe online to make "one off" custom parts and tooling and have started the shopping process for a CNC lathe and mill unit for airsoft production purposes. Once the setup and programming for this unit is completed we will begin updating our custom airsoft parts inventory.

Echo1 Airsoft Gun Gear Improvements

The new Echo1 Commando 614's that have begun showing up at airsoft fields and stores nationwide are pretty sexy looking airsoft machine guns.

I recently had the opportunity to field one for the day and must say I was Pleased by the overall performance. When I first saw the odd size battery with a standard large connector (Ni-Ca 4/5sc 1500MaH 8.4V) I was a bit surprised....But a call to my local Wisconsin custom airsoft battery dealer and a new custom battery pack designed for the 614 is on its way.

So this airsoft gun chronographed at 350-360 FPS and the accuracy pattern was pretty nice (70' to 100' = 12" inch average pattern) But the smooth firing and quiet operation is what was impressed on me the most as I plinked around the ABZ range.
Gotta have a look inside this baby....
SOooo about 20 minutes later, there I was with a brand new Echo1 614 in a complete state of disassembly and noticed a few unique airsoft gun design improvements in this version two mechbox. I like the smaller style automotive fuse...easy to replace. Then there is the new gear design, featuring a thrust style bearing unit in the base of the bevel gear. Since this gear is responsible for the transfer of torque from the airsoft gun motor to the mechbox unit it will no doubt eliminate allot of stress and noise that normally exists in the motor to bevel gear transfer of energy in airsoft guns. Also notable is the new style spur gear with a recessed bottom. Not sure what this does for performance and durability but I am sure it contributes to the lack of noise of this improved airsoft gun gear set.

I see Echo1 is selling these as aftermarket gear sets and the standard gears will fit most airsoft guns with version 2 or 3 standard gearboxes.

Stay tuned for further reports on these these new Echo1 gear sets and how they hold up to my heavy trigger finger and add to the overall durability of my upgraded airsoft guns.

Airsoft Gun Parts

Boy it sure has been hard lately to keep enough airsoft gun parts in stock, Can't seem to predict what repair or upgrade someone will need next. With all the new models available the parts needed by players just keeps expanding all the time. Just look for instance at the AK-47 and how many parts this airsoft gun and its version 3 Mechbox uses. Now times that by the other models and adaptations of just the AK and you begin to see the enormity of the situation.

M4 and M16 airsoft parts alone could fill up a small airsoft warehouse, now add to that the companies that make non standard guns (parts will not fit other airsoft guns) and you have many more options and parts to catalog.

Then there are the upgrade parts or "High Performance Airsoft Gun Parts" designed to increase your durability, FPS and accuracy. High torque gears, High speed gears, and hardened steel gears, don't forget the bore up cylinder sets and silent cylinder sets, spring guides with thrust bearings and tight bore barrels which brings up the importance of properly maintained hop up parts. Some guns feature a stock plastic style hop up and some have a full metal unit, but what is absolutely critical is that all parts are properly assembled and the bucking and nub are in good working order. Hop up unit rebuilding kits are available to purchase now as well.

Now if you look at both internal and External airsoft parts available the already large list turns into an encyclopedia size inventory sheet. That's why we tell our customers to call us if you are shopping for parts at our online airsoft gun parts store and do not find the part you need listed for sale. We probably have the airsoft part you are looking for...just not online yet. Many have asked about the ICS split mechbox parts and G&G L85 and other specialty parts. Yes we carry hard to find airsoft parts, and easy to find airsoft parts as well as upgrade and high performance parts. So the next time you need repair parts for your AEG swing by the Airsoft Battle Zone parts store or visit us at the airsoft gun repair website and see if "we have what you need" to get you back in the airsoft game quickly.
