@@tackleberry7526 I couldn't find any UK stockists when I looked. Waldo got us 8mm kits and the axle was fine but the bearing was too small so I found a company in the UK that specialises in bearings and got one of the right size.
@@tackleberry7526 not in the UK. As I said the kit we got first was the wrong size so no point sending you a link to that or the bearing we then had to get to remedy it. You're best off just finding a glock 9mm bearing kit to start with. It'll probably have to come from Europe or Asia
I bought aap two weeks ago together with stock, and I loved this gun so much I decided to get HPA set specially for it so I could use it all time even during winter!
@@williamvegas7209 Not yet but bought a bearing just in case. Two of my friends had issues though. I had issues with firing pin lock. It just broke. I noticed that's also something that breaks pretty often among users. You can get cow cow replacement or buy some firing pin from G18 and make it fit. Cow cows are unavailable in Poland and shipping is expensive so I used second option and it works well. In HPA I run 90-100 psi depending on CQB limits. I would recommend heavier BBS too. I go with 0.28 and seem to be perfect
I loved my aap01 from the moment I first got it and I immediately wanted to upgrade it to its full potential. A couple months later and every possible upgrade available has been installed. Only downside, my steel hammer has made my gun full-auto only. So I’m waiting on a GunsModify rotor bearing. But this pistol, is literally god tier.
the main strenghts of the AAP are the low barrier to entry being the most affordable GBB pistol on the market its very good performing out of the box external and internal simplicity very easy to upgrade, internally about as simple as youl get so even novice techs can upgrade it themselves extensive aftermarket support, you can turn your AAP into whatever you feel like, theres all kinds of parts and kits. if you want steel parts you can get high quality steel upper recievers etc
Very cool 👍 I'd check out the Guns Modify Zero Hammer Rotor, and you will be impressed; it lives true to its name. The rotor stays upword for the blow back, and the lays flat for the blowback return. This equals to zero resistance engagement with the hammer, and making the charging super smooth. I haven't tested yet, but I think their steel hammer also has an improved lobe that makes it easier for the BBU to engage and also a better disconnecter lip that should overall make it a zero system where it reduces the wear and tear tremendously and also th nice smooth racking of the BBU is just accomplished by the rotor only. I'll report back after testing it out.
I paid around 90 USD for my pistol, and around 200 in parts (tracer, extended threaded barrel, folding stock (which can be used as a foregrip when folded), red dot sight, and high cappa drum mag) and its the best gun I have ever used
I bought one off Craigslist for $50. So far I have a acetech blaster. Flashlight and 3 mags. Looking forward to going hpa and upgrade the trigger, hammer hopper and barrel.
Hi i installed mine but it increased the fps by about 30 and i cant use it on my field with it in the max on my field is 350fps and its shooting around 360!
You could just use weaker gas, that is another advantage of GBBs. You can mix Propan (~7 bar) and Butan (~2 bar) to tune your fps as needed. There are a lot of gas mixtures available...
I really love mine, even though I've barely used it recently. The main down side is not being able to use it in competiton as it's not a "real" gun as such and not on the approved list. The SQB crowd in Taiwan as well as MilSim players have adopted them in droves as they just eat any Glock mag and there are just so many parts, carbine kits and accessories. Action Army really knocked it out of the park with this one 👍. The fixed barrel just makes it silly accurate as well, and tracer compatibility out of the box is a great feature. And I never have any of the reliability issues most of my other 10 or so GBB pistols still give me. When they need a sidearm that actually works, rather than just something as a holster filler or to suit a loadout/impression, this is what I recommend to people.
@@Roundgoggles well, it isn't a perfect replica of it, and you still can't use it in competition due to its construction and lack of full length top slide due to ISPC rules. Same for a Luger or C96, if you were ever possessed to try that. Which I have...
@@Roundgoggles well, the fixed barrel helps a great deal with accuracy, and the fact it doesn't have a top slide increases cycle time and reduces muzzle disturbance. Hicapas tend to dominate action air but I just find them a bit dull for my own tastes so I run a Shadow 2 or PPQ.
I recently got mine a couple days ago but my propane tank and adapter keep leaking and not all going into it. I’m only getting 1 to 2 mags from it, anyone know anything
Hey Waldo. Can you do a review on attaching the TTI CNC PCC kit for the AAP01 please. I’m also wondering what your opinion is about adding an AMG Antifreeze Cylinder Bulb and putting in AMG Output Valve for the mags? I’m also adding CowCow Enhanced plastic nozzle set, CowCow Ultra Lightweight Blowback Unit, CowCow CNC Steel Hammer set, Red Trigger and Action Army Folding Stock.
My AAP last one game -_- Just like the hi-cappa before it and the H8r before that. They all blew seals after the first use. Out of the box the AAP didn't feed right. Constantly working the bolt and having 2 bbs fall out. After about the 5th mag through it, it blew something and the whole magazine emptied on me. Idk if its the mag or the AAP. This being my THIRD sidearm ever and ALL of them blowing seals after the first day is getting really annoying.
Other than the inner barrel are there any other parts that you haven't replaced? I mean honestly for the most part it sounds like you have almost an entire AA-PO1 sitting in a box somewhere.
Trigger bar Trigger Spring Hammer assemble housing BBU Nozzle Inner Barrel Front internal Chassis Mag release spring Guide rod I didn't need to replace all of them, but it is half the fun!
Does anyone get consent feed issues and bolt lock ups on prolonged firing. Single shot fire 10 shots then pause the 10 shots and bolt jams on home return. Split upper and lower bolt pulls back and returns but when paired and pulling back and release the bolt sometimes jams halfway on return after a few pull backs.
Are the upgrades you have shown the ideal upgrades to aim for ? I am planning on getting one of these soon, will be looking to turn it into a gas smg. Is there any essential upgrades for turning it to this purpose ?
@@WaldoDynamics can you do a vid on modifying the hammer and explaining what needs to be done and where to get the parts? also what holster do you use with it?
Sorry, what's the difference between Lil' Snap and Snappy Boi? Also, how does it compare to the cowcow stuff? I'm trying to make the pistol a primary w/ a carbine kit
Just out of curiosity did you use the cowcow hammer meant for the aap or did you use the glock one? I believe some people have had issues with the aap one and recommended using the glock version and modifying it.
Hi ^^ this video has been around for a while but I'm getting information about different pistols because I want to change my cyma 030 for a gas one. Could you recommend me a gas pistols that is worthwhile with a budget of €100-120. I have been looking at the rossi redwing, the hi capa of kjw or we and the truth is that the aap01 is also among the candidates because there are many people who are very happy with it and the chance of customizing it with the 3D printer appeals to me a lot. would you recommend me? Kind regards and congratulations on the channel ^^
Do you run a holster? I have the Black Mamba upper on mine as well but I have mine built as a sidearm. Haven't been able to find holster unless I want to go back to the stock upper
I watched his previous video he said something like 0.2 gram bb but he also said that 0.3 gram bbs were better and I think he said that they go further than 0.2 gram bbs hope this helped.. 9 months later lol😂
Thanks to it being "illegal" and needing import in my country, the price goes upwards of £200 :') I love this gun, but I wont be able to get it anytime soon.
I my opinion, that bearing rotor on the hammer its the worst system, the "arrow" shape its the best. I don't like the idea if the bearing pushing up the bbu even a bit, that will wear the frame rails
Get yourself a drum mag instead of buying all the smaller mags, reloading a pistol is fun and satisfying but not when you’re in the middle of a shootout with another player and have to reload lol
I remember seeing a video on this and o was gonna buy an air soft but I rushed into a big five and just bought a pellet berreta smh I should’ve saved for an aap still haven’t bought one but will do next check time flies man just been working for like a year and a half and I forgot I needed an air soft haha wtf I bought a gun I can’t use I was even close to buying a real Glock 26 lmfao but not this wow
Question.. My aap is firing 2 bbs when i press the trigger ones.. it doesn't double feed but shoots 2 bbs separately. any idea what might be the problem? Hammer is a new stainless steal kit all springs upgraded short stroked a little bit noting crazy Glock ajustable speed trigger set at minimum wall Some other AAP user told me it might be the fire lock pin.. but it doesnt seem damaged. (ordered a new one anyway.) Kr Nick
These go for $250 cad or like $180 usd, and I see a lot of people paying $100 usd for them. Some people are lucky to live where they can buy 2 of these for the price of one.

interesting, are you sure your firing pin lock is still functional? I just replaced mine after a full auto issue and now it shoots semi again on semi!
@@jataku Yes it is, it initially had snapped on me, so I have the stainless steel one now.

Can we get a look at your gun collection in a video?
If people would like that I can do a quick video on it 🙂

Smg build definitely go for the all steel hammer set from cowcow
Definitely worth getting a steel hammer set and some solid springs to keep your system feeding well and remaining snappy
@@WaldoDynamics can you do a vid on modifying the hammer and explaining what needs to be done and where to get the parts?

On Ebay I have seen a roller bearing conversation assembly by Cow-Cow available for about 50 USD. Hope that helps.
