I use BP Pmags and found them to be excellent in WOCs and they hold 30 rds.

I had bought 6 of those Beta Project Pmags, they all leaked, re-sealed and still leaked, I also noticed a lack of power and a lack of spare parts... Lame.

Im glad to hear the Masada GBBR conversion takes WA mags

Im sure Ehobby will eventually have the pre-built GBBR Masada at some point.

I just bought a PX4.

Weird. I have a few and found them to be on par with my Pro-wins and WAs.

The only problem I've ever really had with the WA system is leaking mags. I've got 7 of the standard type G&Ps and they all leak like *Ubarflock*, I've never been able to field my GBBRs.

I'll be buying some of the G&P PMAGs very shortly, because lower capacity I can work around. Mags that hold no propellant are 100% useless.

Weirdest thing i ever saw in airsoft? A guy being hit from 70-80 meters by a stock JG MP5 in the arms of a newbie. The dude never saw it coming, literally.

Quotes section:
*Skarclaw: God I love airsofters, we want a p90s that take m4 mags and m4s that take p90 mags
*ThaFlash: My GBB rifle and pistols cost more than their real counterparts, but I can't shoot my friends with real guns and have them still be my friends... with airsoft, it's what we do.

You can get the sealed. Replace the strike pin in the release valve with a GHK one. They fit and make the mag very reliable. As for the power...just fine for 360 FPS CQB fields. Unless you'd rather give those mags to me

Good link, nice to see a roller bearing there on the hammer, looks like a fairly robust little unit.

My only slight concern is that last picture where they say "a different barrel nut is required" and then you can see one of the spring pins sticking out of the barrel mounting block. I've tried to remove the 2 huge pins that hold that block in before now and they do not like coming out, not one bit. Takes a a fair bit of work with a perfectly sized punch and a good, weighty hammer to get those things to move, far from a quick job.

No. Like the title of this thread states, this is a conversion for the PTS Masada.

Dude, just look at the video. Does that look like a PTS or A&K Masada?!

Wasn't the only difference between those two, was the placement of the charging handle?

The easiest way to tell (for me, anyway) is by looking at the gas block.

...You serious?

If that's the case then PTS must've put a HUGE premium on essentially the same gun as the A&K with a different charging handle position.

Reviews:

HK3P Glock 17 GBB Pistol (TM Clone); Building Fire (ACM) LaRue SPR-1.5 Mount; Visionking (ACM) 1.25-5x26 Optic; AndaxWorks TangoDown ARC Magazine Shells (WE GBBR System); Element (ACM) Surefire M961 WeaponLight + FM23 Cover; Flyye Industries Dual 9mm Magazine Pouch; Apple Airsoft SureFire MB556K Muzzle Brake; Element (ACM) Haley Strategic Thorntail Adaptive Light Mount; ACM VLTOR IMOD Stock; Building Fire (ACM) LaRue Tactical HandStop and IndexClip Combo

We have the technology to lob sharp pointy things further, faster and with more ouchies at the other end.

I did infact change the strike pin for a GHK one, on one of my beta project Pmags and your right it did work a treat but I found the power was way to low to even push the bolt back sometimes. I suppose I just had a ###### batch.

I just bought a PX4.

The dimensions between the two are completely different.
the A&K masada was designed from pictures.

It is clearly shown in the video that this is about a PTS masada ACR.
the finish of the product and the body pins are more than enough to see the difference.

Challenge everything!!

Worked even on an Inokatsu bolt for me.
