Heres the link <link removed> Also got an M9 on there aswell. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Had an STTI MK23 for about a year now, shoots about 320fps out of the box w/ top gas. Just like the Marui NBB, but much cheaper, little less quality, but definately worth it. Also, the silencer has an inner barrel, it gives it crazy range and accuracy.

Ghost_Rider Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Also, the silencer has an inner barrel, it gives it crazy range and accuracy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And makes it illegal to skirmish with in th UK! Link to post Share on other sites
R22Master Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 I don't think that Mk23 is actually a blowback. If it is the one I am thinking of, it is unsuitable for use on any UK skirmishing field (it is overpowered), it is NBB only, and it has the worst trigger pull of any gas pistol I have ever used. It's cheap for a reason dudes Link to post Share on other sites
Cinder Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 And makes it illegal to skirmish with in th UK! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 320fps w/ the silencer, should have put that(I never take it off ) ps- trigger pull is no more than the marui version Link to post Share on other sites
joeking27 Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 I think the one in the link is a new one, which is obscenely powerful. Gives legit SOCOM owners like us a bad name. Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers for the info everyone. Not really a fan of non blowbacks though if thats what it is! Guess the price was too good to be true lol Link to post Share on other sites

5thElement Posted May 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Thanks for the pics. Looks not bad. I guess the slide has no markings on it? hard to tell on that 2nd picture. Link to post Share on other sites
Gir Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Cinder.... Where did you buy that?.... Link to post Share on other sites
Zephyranthes Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 I have the same pistol, and using Green Gas, it chronoes at a wooping 494fps! I've gotten used to the trigger pull. I bought it for only $20 US dollars. Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 I would guess that with an actual silencer, FPS would be reduced. However, the silencer with it is actually a barrel extension, and gives it an FPS that makes it unusable for UK skirmishing. We will be checking Mk23s at AG05. Edit ~ The M9 might be the KJW, but no way of telling plastic or metal. From the price, almost certainly plastic, so not worth it at all. Anyone fancy e-mailing them for clarification?

screamin_weasel Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 so how does this chrono without the silencer ? or with different gas? NBB or GBB ? *intrigued* Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Run it without the silencer/barrel extension, and on 134a, and you SHOULD be looking at UK skirmish limits. I'm getting kinda tempted to get one and experiment with it... Link to post Share on other sites

I bought it for only $20 US dollars. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If that pistol chronos at 500fps then removing the silencer won't drop it by more than 10fps. If it's shooting at 500fps with 0.2g BBs then it's power is around 2.3J. If it's shooting at 500fps with 0.12g BBs then the power will be around 1.35J If that figure is taken on Green gas, with 0.12g BBs then it'll probably be perfectly legal with 134a gas. My own Mk23 shoots at 305fps with 0.2g BBs when using 134a gas. TBH, it's the one pistol that I don't run on propane simply because it's not worth it. Incidentally, give up with the extended barrel / silencer thing. Once the hop-up has put a spin on the BB then any interruption in the barrel will screw up the way the BB is travelling. Far better to remove the inner barrel, stuff some tissue paper in there and (big surprise!) use it as a silencer. Oh, and you knew the silencer is made of plastic, right?

Ubar Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 what? somone managed to make the marui mk23 look even cheaper? mad props to stti for achieving such a feat Link to post Share on other sites

Cinder Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Cinder.... Where did you buy that?.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Jungletoy.com for $60, came with a free extra mag too. (mags are only $20 anyway, and they work in the marui.) To Sledge- Crono's about 290fps w/ silencer on 134a gas. Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 thats quite impressive. i think i will have to eventually get one of these, see what they're like. especially at half the price of a TM one. so is it GBB then? or NBB? Link to post Share on other sites
