If you take care of them thay do last :) and after years of playing i got into doing my own tech work witch also saves time and money and no need to stalk pile more guns were all buy parts now :D
Thanks. Found another clown who seemed to have little to no idea what he was doing, but a very high sub count. And then I find you, barely any subs, but great guide. Sad world
Thanks for the video. This helps beginners like me, please make a video on the butt stock and scope/red dot placements. I'm having a hard time aiming down the site.
Im new and the part about not using silicone oil in the barrel confuses me. It does make sense, but i have seen like 10+ cleaning/maintenance videos on youtube now, and ALL say that i should - more or less - hose the gun with silicone oil. For gas guns - All rubber seals and fittings on gas magazines, all moving parts gets the silicone oil. Airsoft GI even recommended Silicone for cleaning the barrel in their basic AEG maintenance. How do you stop the silicone oil from going from all the mechanisms to the hop up? This is ofcourse easier on an AEG, but wont the silicone oil be bad for the rubber fit and hop up (if it swells up) on blow back guns aswell?
Lipo storage charge is 3.85v, per cell. Leaving a lipo fully charged longer than 3 days is bad for them. Get a lipo checker if you don't have one. They will last A LOT longer.
Yes you do have to maintain it. How ever a to new looking gun in my eyes does look great but you did not use it very often and does not make you look like a combat vet. A bit of a "used look" looks cooler to me it means you and your gun have seen combat. Dont make it look brand spanking new like you took it out of the box that morning. Make it look like its your third arm and you sleep with it (sort off) it makes you look better in the field.
I’m not sure i found my takedown pin because it looks like a screw so i unscrewed it but the gun will not budge. Not sure if I just don’t have the right thing or something.
I just bought a new G&G CM16 SRL, it’s firing at 285 FPS. Could that be because it needs to be used for a couple of games to break in the gears and other parts?
Use silicone oil to clean your bucking first light rubbing alcohol until you can't see anymore dirt then silicone oil if you want only on the bucking then dry patch if you don't care about your bucking drying up and getting brittle listen to him but about 90% of the customers guns I work on they either never clean there guns or barley do and the bucking is where all their problems seem to start.
Hi, having taken the inner barrel off is there a reason that you didnt push the rod through in the direction of the BB from the hopup out? With a real firearm, you should always clean the barrel in the direction of travel and so I wonder why you didnt do that? Even using the firearm technique of pushing the rod in and then attaching the patch and pulling back through.....
The hop up is fairly delicate. There is a piece of rubber (the bucking) that contacts the BB every time you shoot. By cleaning from the direction of the hop up, you're putting more wear on the bucking. You generally want to minimize contact with the bucking when you're cleaning the inner barrel.
It's a good idea to pop off a few rounds on semi with the gun empty to make sure the chamber is empty and to put the spring in a properly timed position for a semi shot. However, very efficient guns will still have a bit of overspin in the semi-cycle so the spring will always be under some form of tension in addition to it naturally sitting in tension inside the gearbox. In short, it's a good idea to do so, but not the biggest deal in the world.
At the last game towards the end of the night I was running and realized the front muzzle came off so I had to rescrew everything since when I checked it, the screws were loose
hi i like your video very helpful, so you mean no need to worry about the oil in the gearbox and no need to maintance the gearbox or disassemble it?, unless the airsoft (aeg) can't shoot or needs the gearbox to be disassembled for reasons it doesn't work?, because I heard from someone the gearbox the gear and moving parts need to be lubricated, maybe you can straighten it out a bit for me, thank you.
You don’t need to do it if there are no issues. Also you will want to make sure you know how to open a gearbox or you might end up with more issues than you fix.
Wait people put lube in the barrel! I came to airsoft from real guns and i figured you treat the airsoft barrels the same as your real gun. Light cleaning solution only. Only the FCU and slide rails need lube/grease. I can only imagine the dirt and debris buildup from lubing everything. Can u imagine oiling the inner barrel on an actual gun. A lot more fire would come out the barrel. It would burn off tho. But still omg htf did someone come up with cleaning using silicone.
Silicon oil bad? What makes airsoft guns magically different from every other mechanical mechanism Im familiar with that it just collects dust and causes problems?
Nothing magic to it. Wet lubricants will attract dust and dirt in anything. In some situations, that's fine. In sealed mechanisms, or mechanisms with tolerances that allow for dirt to not affect it, it's a non-factor. But we're out there in often dirty environments, and dirt/grit collecting in the barrel could be an issue. A huge one? Maybe, maybe not. But it's a consideration for sure. Application and environment should always be considered when choosing a lubricant. But the bigger factor is that you don't want lubricant on your hop-up. As he covered in the video, rubber doesn't always play nice with certain compounds, and it also relies on friction to do it's job, so you don't want to reduce that friction with lube. Also, it's just plain unnecessary for an airsoft barrel.
you shouldnt be cleaning your inner barrel with the hop up on the barrel still you just pushed basically any shit in the barrel into the hop up rubber and material and dust from the crap shop towel you just used.
Ideally we could go into a lot of details like acetone soaking the barrel to get rid BB buildup. Doing a detailed clean of the rubber after removing it, as well as cleaning the hop unit. But this video is just something simple for most people to at least start maintenance on their gun. The small amount of debris that gets on the rubber is not a huge issue compared to most people that will likely never clean their gun because it seems to involved in the first place.
@@SiegeAirsoft i totally get that but if im gonna do what you did, i would stop before the hop system and then maybe come in from the back and push it out the front, and really unless you have a tbb or dropped the gun in dirt and mud you dont have to do this every game. tbb has to be cleaned more often, but i get ya

Damn, this is one of the best informative videos ive seen on any subject. Clean, visual and explanations, no absurd music, just to the point.
The video I watched before this said to use 100% silicone oil I’m Glad I decided to watch this thank you!
Yeah i literally heard that too. Gotta get your research from a wide range of people, so you can properly decide.
Yup im glad ive watched this video
As a noob, best informative video! Thanks.
just got my 1st unit and this tutorial is great. It answered my concern on using silicone oil.
Shop towels, good idea!
Kylo Ren vibes. Thanks for the fantastic info!!
I THOUGHT THE SAME THING
the great in depth reviews are so helpful for noobs like me that are new to airsoft
I have one cyma ak not opened or cleaned for above 10 years now and it works just fine
I just got my first airsoft gun and this was pretty helpful on how i should treat and clean it. Great video!
If you take care of them thay do last :) and after years of playing i got into doing my own tech work witch also saves time and money and no need to stalk pile more guns were all buy parts now :D
@@darylobey8867 It's for almost everything. If you take care of yourself, you're going to last longer.
That roll tho 👀
Exactly what I came here to say
another great point, water will dissolve any paintball paint you have stuck in cracks or stippling
Paper rolling skills looked familiar 😂 Cheers mate, great advice. Just got my 1st M4 so will be trying to keep it well maintained.
This is a timeless video
Great content, I enjoy your instructional videos
Thanks.

Can you also make a video on how to store your aeg rifle and battery when it will not be use for a long time, let's say around 9months to a 1year?
Thanks so much for making this video, saved me hours and hours of searching!
Thanks for the video. This helps beginners like me, please make a video on the butt stock and scope/red dot placements. I'm having a hard time aiming down the site.
Very professional and good video
lipos like to be at 3.8 volts per cell for storage voltage
This man has rolled some paper before
Good videos I support this channel thumbs up

Looked like a familiar rolling technique
Lipo storage charge is 3.85v, per cell. Leaving a lipo fully charged longer than 3 days is bad for them. Get a lipo checker if you don't have one. They will last A LOT longer.
Well done, thank you!

i only commented to make the last guy not actually last, i loved the video though! really helps new airsofters like me!
Baby wipes work great too
Is it a big deal if you go the opposite way with the cleaning rod when cleaning the inner barrel? If the barrel is too difficult to disassemble
What does the hop up window look like?? I am researching for my first gun
I’m not sure i found my takedown pin because it looks like a screw so i unscrewed it but the gun will not budge. Not sure if I just don’t have the right thing or something.
Nice video! What peq is that?

Cant take out my barrrel because i have to take apart my whole gun 😢
Btw it is g&g rk 104 ebb
Clean your barrel! Thanks for watching.
Which eyepros are they and are they antifog?

The worst is full gas blowback mags at the end of a game your pretty much screwed its a waste
Hi, Is there such a thing like resting the spring after using it, like you have to fire it once in Auto mode then fire once in Semi auto? Thanks
It's a good idea to pop off a few rounds on semi with the gun empty to make sure the chamber is empty and to put the spring in a properly timed position for a semi shot. However, very efficient guns will still have a bit of overspin in the semi-cycle so the spring will always be under some form of tension in addition to it naturally sitting in tension inside the gearbox.
In short, it's a good idea to do so, but not the biggest deal in the world.
@@SiegeAirsoft Thanks so much :)
Hoping someone can help advise what the mock style suppressor is on this RIF please? Thanks.
At the last game towards the end of the night I was running and realized the front muzzle came off so I had to rescrew everything since when I checked it, the screws were loose
Good on you for checking. Proper preparation prevents poor play!

On mine I have a mock suppressor

What is the "window" of the hopup, and how does it look like?
It's the open cut on your barrel for the hop up rubber to protrude from
where to buy lipo checker?
You can find them on amazon or any hobby store.

The bbs work off of friction and oil makes it lose friction

Yes we can tell you smoke
It's an aeg.... Bros acting like it's a real gun...
Let's be honest who has the discipline to do this
You do you, this is what we recomend to have a long lasting and well performing gun on field.
Lol. Eye pro just to do maintenance. Wow.
