Pocket Ace,

I have to ask was that inspired by the Spike's Tactical Compressor?!?!? Cuz it's simply fabulous! I've been wanting to do a compressor inspired build for ages now so I fell out of my chair when I saw that. I absolutely love what you've done! What a great CQB build!

I have a quick question for a potential buyer:


Are there rail segments available for the old style geissele mk4 rail? I'm obviously finding a lot of keymod rails, but I'm looking for the rectangular old style system

Yes sir, when the ST Compressor made the cover of AR15 magazine last year I fell in love with the gun and wanted one. So I've been working on it ever since. Next is a full exact matching trades receiver set. Pretty much all that's left to complete the gun for a spot on look ( currently Magpul lower / MUR upper )

Thanks for the compliments, definitley makes the build worth while when others can spot the basis of the build!

Now you're talking! I've been trying to brainstorm ideas for how to come close the the real receiver which is very unique. Funny thought that the Magpul/Vltor receiver set was my first thought too!

Other possibilties are these:

This is similar to your Magpul/Vltor body but has a dedicated ambi mag release built right in. Not exactly like the Compressor but definitely in the same spirit!
http://www.gp-web.com/en/productspop.php?pid=3758y

Then I saw these. The body has a more traditional ambi mag release but it also has an ambi bolt release just like the ST and its forward assist housing is very angular like the ST. Probably the closest AEG upper I've found!

Then I came across this! GAME CHANGER! (that is if you're into PTWs)
http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwol..._M4_Series.htm

Alas, it will be a ways off before I can pursue the Compressor build! Money &Time.

I really like the bronze colored r5 receiver that you posted. I've wanted to do an all black cqb build with that bronze receiver but I don't see a way of a getting it with out the rest of the gun.

Yeah at this stage you'd likely have to buy the entire gun and upgrade it from there.

Photo shoot was done through one of my employees, and I sourced about 60% of the externals of the parts for Pocket's build. It was a bitch that took a lot of time to find everything. I also built the internals. Pocket Ace and I agreed to Watermark any public photos in case another KTech incident happens.

I also have a source in the States who's been getting me the MOTS receivers. Should have a new batch of them soon.

Anywho, here's one of my most recent builds.

Here is my noob addition to this thread.

G&P MOE 14.5" M4 slightly modified. Yeah i know the flash hider is upside down on the picture... i need suggestions for 14mm CW muzzle brakes...

Paintjob was a test, turned out decent for winter indoor games i think.

Let me know what you guys think.

Looks great! I love Troy handguards, and I like your paint job. Leaving the lower reciever clean looks sharp

Gentlemen, I'm new to the M4 world, but I'm looking at a King Arms M4 Ultra Grade. I'd like to add a rail to it, but I have no idea what would be compatible. I'm also toying with the idea of picking up an M203. You men know what you're talking about, can anyone help an M4 Cherry out? Thank you.

King Arms makes good M4's. Not fantastic, but good and fairly reliable.

However, VFC makes the best, hands down. Out of the box you would need little more than a spring change to get it within field limits, and if you want to take it one step further, a quick shim job and regreasing of the gear box while swapping that spring out. Other than that, it works perfectly internally for a factory stock gun. The externals are much better on VFC than pretty much every other brand of AEG. The only one that comes close is G&P, but VFC has more stuff closer to real steel spec than G&P does, and VFC is compatible with much more externally speaking.
