Science Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I just read news of the new LCT AKMS Real Assembly AEG (Ver.2009) on airsoft-news.eu. Does anyone know what "Real Assembly" is? VFC style fastening pins comes to my mind. May I have your speculations? Link to post Share on other sites
lordyeray Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I just read news of the new LCT AKMS Real Assembly AEG (Ver.2009) on airsoft-news.eu. Does anyone know what "Real Assembly" is? VFC style fastening pins comes to my mind. May I have your speculations? Yes, it seems LCT 2009 guns are pinned and have realistic takedown. I've ordered a LCT AKM 2009, as soon as i get it, i'll post a review. Link to post Share on other sites
-FIDO- Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 my guess is that it uses grub screws like all the other kits but it has a gas tube and lower handguard that can be removed like on the vfc Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 i think the rear right block block is pinned but the rest are screws. might be wrong though (although i'm 99% sure that the sight block is pinned, other parts may or may not be) Link to post Share on other sites

christavel! Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Damn i wish i didnt have to import LCT from hong kong its so expensive, anyone got any idea when british stores might start stocking LCT? Link to post Share on other sites
Grobut Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 With a little luck, my LCT 09 AKM kit arrives at my doorstep later today, and then i'll be more than happy to let you guys know what is or is not pinned or grubbed, and answer any other questions you may have (baring in mind that i've bought the kit, not the preassembled AEG, so i can tell you nothing about the Gearbox in thouse) Link to post Share on other sites
Grobut Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Good news, everyone! its a suppository! No, don't dwell on that.. lets instead talk 09 AKM, and ohhh my, there is lots to say, so gather round progressive thinkers, and hold on to your Pilotka's. So, what's pinned, and whats grubbed? Barrel assembly, still held by 2 grubbies beneath the rear sightblock, no change there. Rear sightblock, one pin, two small grubs on the underside. Front retainer for lower grip, rotating arm for dissasembly, no grubs. Gaschamber, one pin in the front, one grub on the underside at the back. Front sight, 2 pins over the barrel, one grub on the underside. In other words, its much improved, and pin fanatics will be pleased, if not 100% satiesfied. And yes, the gastube and front grip can be stripped like the real one now, but there's one oddity, the front sling mount on the grip trunion is.. well it's quite a bit larger than it used to be, and i'm not quite sure what to make of that. Speaking of grips, LCT has upped their game on this one, sure the 08 wood grips like on the old AKMS looked pretty good, but.. not quite right, thease though, they look very convincing, and the upper is laminated this time too. They are not 100% accurate, but i gotta admit, they come clouse, and you woulden't really need to replace them with realsteel ones, they are good. The rear sight is now the propper 1000m type instead of the 800m, and has the propper "П" mark instead of the "N", it also drops down propperly to the 100m and 200m marks now, so that's much improved. Ok, thats enough for now, there's still more toys for me to unpack in the magic mystery box from HongKong, and my cats really want that cardboard box! Link to post Share on other sites
FriendlyFire! Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Congratz on the new toy Grobut and thanks for the info, will we be seeing some pics on the AK pics thread? Link to post Share on other sites
Grobut Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Congratz on the new toy Grobut and thanks for the info, will we be seeing some pics on the AK pics thread? Thank you, and yes you definately will, though it will take a few days, gotta assemble a couple of new gearboxes and then do the weathering, plus fitting some RS wood. In other news, the kitties did get the cardboard box, and have since turned it into a doom fortress, i fear for my safety. Link to post Share on other sites
FriendlyFire! Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 No problem I can wait. And of your kitties just run, run and don't look back....! Oh and make sure you get the picks up before the kitties get to you Link to post Share on other sites

Grobut Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Can you post some photos? Yus! sorry for the quality, but with all the grey and rain outside, i didn't have much light helping me here.. The barrel, you can see the rotating arm on the front retainer amongst other things here: More barrel, showing some pins and grubs: The reciver with stock, empty 09 model on the top, AIMS reciver with RS stock and internals below (i'll be using the AIMS with the RS stock on mine): Front grips, RS on top sporting the rubber bands, LCT 09 below fitted to the front: Hope thouse where somewhat helpfull Link to post Share on other sites
Hoppum Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Does the rear sight function properly now? Rather than floating above slope like it used to. Link to post Share on other sites
Grobut Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Does the rear sight function properly now? Rather than floating above slope like it used to. Yes, it works as it should now, actually you can see it's in the 100m position in the last pic, and not hovering in mid air (though the pic is rather dark, so you have to look carefully).

Science Posted February 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Thanks for the review Grobut. That explains everything. I was hoping something closer to VFC so I can change parts with my GHK gbb, get some better quality parts on it. Are you not bending your trigger guard? That is one thing I can't stand . It is more emphasized on the GHK's grip. With pliers I bent it into this. Now I want to sandblast all parts, refinish them with Gunkote. Also engrave some trades if I can.
