Do you know where one could acquire on of these batteries? That 9.6V 3300 mAh battery would be badass in my C8, which now has my 416 crane stock... With the 9.6V 3800 battery in the full stock of my 416, the rate of fire is insane.... I couldn't imagine what a 12V would do. If that wouldn't make the mechbox implode, I don't know what would...

I have a 9.6v 2000 mah in the same configuration for my 416. Contact www.airsoftparts.ca or PM Jugglez he can get you one.

Yeah but if I'm willing to spend the money/do the work to make a 20" 416 then why not. I mean uniqueness is worth the extra bit of $ and the f*ckload of work to make the parts fit right.

where did u get that suppressor?

unless you have a set up meant for the high rate of fire I wouldn't recommend it
going pass the 9.6 2400mah, long time ago i did try it with my HK51 with a Systema speed gear set and a 10.8 3300 mah the bastard was stripped bald at the second trigger pull

The multicolor rail covers are a very nice touch!

Which are they?

I have 9.6V 3800 mAh batties in both my M15 rifle and my 416. I've put about 500 rounds through both the guns now and they seem to be holding up fine. I installed metal bushings in the 416 to made sure the bushings wouldn't disintegrate, and reshimmed it (my first shim job and it seems to be ok). If I strip anything, it will be the gears or piston, which are both easily replaced. I have some spare reinforced gears and a couple of spare pistons lying around just in case.

And I wouldn't go with 10.8V. 9.6V is as high as I want to go. A rate of fire of 20-ish BB/s is more than 'high speed' enough for my liking. Now for my M249 though, I want to make that thing into a BB hose...

well in that case I am currently running a 9.6 3300 mah with a sytema motor on one of my Inokatsu M60E3 and it's a hard hitting hose, on my other Inokatsu M60VN I'm running a 10.8 3000 mah and when fired side by side they look to have the same ROF

lekiboy,

where did you get the multi colored rail covers???

They're the same rail covers that I use, and are available in both black and tan sets. I believe he bought 2 sets of guards - 1 black, one tan - and interlocked them like that.

wildcard,

crunchmesiter is right...

its' called the centipede rail cover...they usually come in 3 colors > OD, black and tan...in my case, i bought 2 sets of OD and 2 sets of tan. i mixed and interlocked them to produce the needed effect. i used the excess covers for my mp5 navy.

when you are playing in a big event or a team, it is always hard to ID your gun especially when you place them all in one table...this way, you can easily ID them and looks good too, IMHO.

it protects your hands also from teh sharp edges of the AEG.

nice HK 416 everyone! the hand rail lock on mine now has a loose thread.. damnit. oh well, gotta visit the local bolt and screw center. sigh

I don't want to be a bitch but I ordered my VFC HK416 throught Shootsoft.ca today... Mouhahahaha!

I keep my finger crossed for the full H&K Trades... U.S. version sucks.

Nice!! Which version did you order? don't know the model name but is it the regular barrel or cqc version or better yet... the DX version?

Gotta save up fast for a HK416 after getting the VFC SCAR

I ordered the regular barrel version... I know the DX version rocks but I really like the standard version so I don't need to speed extra bucks on a version that I don't really care.

I'll get a crane stock for my VFC... I'm looking for a nice finish to fit the beauty of the VFC 416... anyone has an idea?

I'll do something really nice with my JG 416 ;) ... but for now, I need minerals... ehhh... money ;)
