KJW G23 and KP-05 gas consuption?

xtylertyx · May 5th, 2009, 17:58

Which one gets you more shots per fill? Which one has a snappier blowback? Which one handles rapid firing better?(Or are they both the same?)
thanks

A Hicapa has a much bigger gas "tank". It would handle rapid fire(cooldown) better because of that as well.

I have a KJW G23; I'm not finding that I get even 2 whole magazine loads (40 rounds) worth of shots from one fill of propane, and I'm not doing rapid fire. I count 35-36 rounds before it goes pffff....

I get the same on my tm glock 17 roughly 2 mags on slow fire. Mag and a half on full auto.

I'm doing the full 20 rounds load-up right now just for fun, but later for some more realistic play, I'll just do 14 rounds per mag (real steel is 13+1), like doing only 30 rounds in my 85 round locaps for my M4.

I just opened another thread on this gun... about how much one gas fill gets shots done...for me (maybe I don't know how to fill up the tank in the mag??) I get around 30-35 good shots... been filling it up for 3-5 secs... how you fill it up.. just put the nozzle on and press? Pst.. and that's it? And how many fills that GG tank has?

On TM mags, I fill till gas spurts out. On mags like KJW where it's a silent fill valve, I fill till I can't hear gas flowing anymore.

On my TM Hicapa 5.1 mags it can take a good 8-10 seconds for a complete fill from empty.

Highly recommand G23,but be careful when shooting it indoors !!! cuz its blowback is gonna give you an explosion-like sound until RCMP comes if your wall isnt solid enough!!!!

Styrak · May 21st, 2009, 04:34

Uhhh.....what?

I have an KJW OD G32C, very close to the G23 in same regards. Depending on weather (West Coast) I may have enough gas for 2 full mags (20 rounds) before I have to refill mag. But this changes if I rapid fire off rounds quickly or not.
