My ECHO 1 is done. Great.
So, I am going to get a APS-2. I've never seen a rifle snap like my ECHO 1 did. Basically, the thing just BROKE, and I cannot fix it, and it's just done. I can't even post everything wrong. It's just time for a new rifle. The relationship is broke. Hoggie is now, single.

What? The thing just snapped in half? If so, I'm sorry man. Sell the parts and make a bit of money. Sorry man. I broke my beautiful 1911 but I have no Idea where to get the part for it.

 

[hoggie]

Yeah, outer barrel + stock broke in half, causing the barrel to bend, and the hop-up's screw to snap inside of it. And this caused the whole thing to basically kill itself. Now the decision.
APS-2 or VSR-10..

I could use all my cylinder parts in the APS-2, thats why I might buy it.

 

[fuzzywolly]

How did your outer barrel break? Were you throwing it at a brick wall?

 

[hoggie]

If I knew, i'd tell you. It complicated seperated, and now has a small crack...

I prefer the aps 2, but that is just my opinion

I would love to see pics of this.

Ive put my ASR through a bit, and so far, no worries.

No point starting from scratch with a VSR when you have the parts for an APS2...
Or you could buy another Echo1 and see if you can get it to brake twice lol.

 

[hoggie]

I bought the Maruzen APS-2. And i'll post picture, this is pretty bad... lol

Posting a video, as it's hard to explain without speech, only 30 seconds long.

Video.
It's a lot worst then it comes across to be. I've been tinkering for 3 days, and I can't even get that outer barrel back in. And for the money to replace the parts + fix the gun, I could have gotten a new gun.
-Outer Barrel: 160
-New Hop: 70
-New Barrel: 80
-New Bucking:25
-New Screws: 5 Dollars
-Getting everything to work: A couple afternoons.
vs
New Gun: 295
New Hop: 70
New Bucking: 10
New Barrel: 80
Time to put it back together: 2 days max.

Option 2 was so much better. It was just time I guess. Dunno.

You just got to love the title of that vid

But I'm sorry for your loss. Hope the APS-2 works for you

It's kind of like, you know that child hood thing you cherish, like your bike. And you turn 16, and you have to get a car because you know it'll be worth it? I'm upgrading from a Bike to a Car.

 

[ronin055]

Ill give ya like $20 for the parts of your "bike".

 

[hoggie]

We will see, if the APS-2 replaces my love for my ASR, maybee...

 

[ronin055]

And then ofcourse there is the open challenge on my target thread. So we could see if your motorcycle can beat my bike.

Bet it cant.

I feel your pain. When my sis threw my jg bar-10 down the stairs I actually CRIED.
Get the vsr-10. Watch this video (it was not made by me).

Jam, use the edit button in the top right hand corner of your post, that way you can avoid double posting.
