Hello everyone,

I offer a line of products produced, sourced, and/or assembled by myself as well as basic to advanced airsmithing services. Many of these products cannot be found in conventional airsoft stores, cannot meet my stringent quality and performance standards, or cannot be found for remotely reasonable prices, ergo why I have developed my own.

To order, send me a PM with what you want and then we can work out payment details. I only accept PayPal payments at this time. Unless otherwise noted, shipping is not included in any prices listed.

Credit to the person(s) whose original concepts are implemented or adapted from is listed at the end of each listing.

PRODUCTS

Unless otherwise noted, all products come with a 15-day limited warranty. See warranty conditions at the bottom of this post.

1. Cleaning/Unjamming Rods



The Jonezy Rod.

Sometimes, it's the little things that get overlooked. Things like the cleaning/unjamming rod. The ones that come with most guns are delicate and brittle, making them hardly suitable to take out on the field with you. Some don't even come with cleaning/unjamming rods right out of the box and whenever you buy a used gun, it likely won't come with one.

Once upon a time, Moondog Industries offered a coilable unjamming rod made of hollow plastic tubing. It had two major flaws: the tubing would bend and collapse if you put too much pressure on it and it lacked an angled unjamming end and an eyelet for cleaning. By combining the coilable feature of the Moondog offering with the slanted ram and eyelet from standard cleaning rods, I created the Jonezy Rod. It is made entirely of strong, flexible nylon as opposed to the cheap plastics found in that cleaning rod you broke or can no longer use effectively after you put a longer inner barrel in. Each comes with a Velcro loop to fasten the coil together.

Available for the following barrel lengths (extra length added for average flash suppressors):

205mm (UMG): $10.30

229mm (MK5, AKS74U): $10.80

247mm (E90, MK36C): $11.35

285mm (MC51): $12.15

305mm (SBR, VSR10 G-SPEC, M733, CQBR): $12.85

363mm (M4, SR16, SG551): $14.25

455mm (AK47, M14SOC): $16.30

510mm (M16, Type 96, M14, AUG): $17.60

560mm (VSR10): $19.00

610mm (PSG-1): $24.00

650mm (PSG-1+) $24.70

Shipping is NOT included in the prices listed above.

All other lengths not listed here are priced with the following formula: Price = 0.03 x (inner barrel length + flash suppressor or barrel shroud length) + 4.30

Don't want the Velcro strap or a specific end? Let me know and I'll adjust the price accordingly.

If you have a barrel extension or abnormally long flash suppressor, PLEASE LET ME KNOW AHEAD OF TIME AND PROVIDE A MEASUREMENT OF IT! I can easily account for the added length and it'll keep you from having to exchange it out.

2. Basic MOSFETs



Basic MOSFET with self-resetting polyfuse.



Basic MOSFET with no fuse.

MOSFETs are a fundamental part of any AEG you plan on running anything higher than a small 9.6v battery in. A MOSFET handles the current switching internally and uses the trigger switch in your gearbox to tell the unit when to turn on, preventing this from happening over time:

Burnt trigger contacts. Image courtesy of HeXeD from Airsoft Forum.

My MOSFETs are built to operate on up to 14.8v batteries and in some of the most demanding setups on the field. Each unit comes with 2' 16AWG low-resistance wire leads for the main wires and a 2' 24AWG super thin wire lead for the gate. Every MOSFET unit is hand-assembled and tested to ensure complete functionality. A large TVS diode filters out voltage spikes and interference created by the motor and safeguards the MOSFET from gradual damage, a feature the Infected Armory MOSFET units lack. PLEASE NOTE: These units do not support active braking (AB) features.

To install, you must have a soldering iron, solder (60/40 alloy preferred), wire cutters, wire strippers, and basic soldering skills.

Your stock trigger switch is configured like this with one red positive wire coming in from the battery and one red positive wire leaving the switch to the motor:

Stock trigger switch wiring.

To install a Basic MOSFET unit, de-solder one red positive wire from one side of the switch and solder it to the other. Then, solder the small green gate lead to the empty side like so:

Basic MOSFET trigger switch wiring.

For versions with polyfuses, you can remove all stock wiring and only use the included wire. If you are replacing stock wiring, you will notice an increase in rate of fire due to the lowered electrical resistance from both the MOSFET unit and the low-resistance wiring.

Non-fused MOSFETs are not backed by any warranty, expressed or implied. Only MOSFETs with integral fuses are covered under my warranty.

Available in the following configurations:

No fuse: $18.00 each shipped

With 20A self-resetting fuse, motor connectors, and 2' wire leads: $26.00 each shipped

With 24A self-resetting fuse, motor connectors, and 2' wire leads: $27.75 each shipped

With 30A self-resetting fuse, motor connectors, and 2' wire leads: $30.00 each shipped

3. Self-Resetting Polyfuses

30A self-resetting polyfuse next to a quarter for size comparison.

Self-resetting polyfuse installed in a KWA KM4.

When a disposable tube or blade fuse blows on the field, you're in for a lengthy walk back to the staging area to dig for a replacement in a best case scenario. For those that would like to avoid this while lowering electrical resistance, I offer self-resetting polyfuses. These fuses heat up in the event that your AEG starts drawing too much current and break the circuit immediately to stop the AEG from operating. This can prevent further damage to your AEG in the event of an electrical or mechanical failure. Each comes with two 2' 16AWG low-resistance wire leads to fit nearly any layout.

Available in the following trip ratings:

20A (for most stock AEGs): $9.00 each shipped

24A (for lightly upgraded AEGs): $11.00 each shipped

30A (for heavily upgraded AEGs): $13.00 each shipped

4. Concave Contact Patches

All-Season Concave Contact Patch (AS-CCP)

All-Season Extended Concave Contact Patch (AS-ECCP)

AS-CCP installed in a Madbull barrel.

The AS-CCP has been one of my most popular products to date. It's a hard silicone contact patch that the user sands, cuts, and shapes to fill the barrel window and match its inner and outer diameter. These do not require the user to modify the barrel window in most cases. When done correctly, this small modification allows your hopup unit to apply more than enough backspin to lift even the heaviest of airsoft BBs on the market. It applies backspin more gradually and consistently than what standard buckings can accomplish. Once installed, it never wears out, never loses effectiveness, and never freezes in the cold. Even in sub-zero temperatures, you still have the ability to apply consistent, accurate hop to a wide range of BBs. This All-Season variant has effectively replaced the standard CCP and rendered it obsolete.

Price: $8.70 shipped per 6-pack

Installation:

For the most part, you can follow the same installation steps as you would with an R/IR-hop contact patch. Be very cautious when using coarse grit sandpaper and power tools as it’s very easy to remove too much material at one time.

Modifying the Bucking:

Since the patch will occupy the space that the hopup mound normally does, you will have to turn the bucking inside-out and remove this mound. This is the mound that would normally touch the top of the BB and apply backspin. Sand it off until it is flush with the rest of the bucking. You can also remove the alignment ridge along the bottom inside of the bucking to allow you to turn it 45 degrees to make use of an unaltered spot for more even pressure distribution.

Sanding the Patch to Height:

Do this first before you cut the patch to length! I recommend using 800 grit sandpaper to lower the contact patches to height. You can also use a rotary tool to do this but as mentioned earlier, it’s much easier to remove too much material and ruin the patch. I find it easier to use a high-grit sanding drum on a rotary tool at medium speed to lower the patches to the right height but that’s just me. Depending on your barrel, you may be able to match the patch to the inner diameter of the barrel strictly by lowering the height of the patch. In the event that you can't, split the difference between protrusion into the barrel and protrusion out of the window. We'll correct that later.

Cutting the Patch to Length:

Once you have the patch sanded down to height, you can cut it down to length. Either leave a small gap (~1mm) between the front of the patch and the front of the hopup window when you cut it to length OR cut the patch so that no gap is present but then you must taper the channel cut deeper at the trailing edge. Failure to do so may result in the same pinch jam you would encounter with an R-hop contact patch. Be certain to not cut the patch too short or the BBs will catch on the edge of the hopup window. Example of ideal taper shown below:

Channel Cutting:

Personally, I like to use the Dremel chainsaw sharpening bit to rough cut the channel to depth and width, then use a 5mm dowel rod wrapped with 800-1200 grit sandpaper to fine-tune. In some cases, you may also have to taper the channel deeper at the leading edge of the patch (nozzle side). Tune the channel such that a BB can pass through the patch with minimal to no force when fully installed in a hopup chamber and the hop setting at zero.

Gluing the Patch In Place:

ONLY USE CYANOACRYLATE GLUE WHEN GLUING THE PATCHES DOWN TO THE HOPUP WINDOW. PREP ALL SURFACES TO BE BONDED WITH ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL. You MUST glue the patch down once you have it tuned correctly in order to get optimum performance out of the system. I usually put a drop of glue on my work surface and apply a thin line down the sides of the patch with a toothpick. Apply the glue sparingly along the sides and let it wick itself in and under the patch to get a decent adhesion to the barrel. Additionally, you can use some silicone sealant to secure the top of the patch to the bucking for added reliability. Sometimes, it helps to put gentle pressure on the patch for 60-120 seconds while the glue cures. Be careful not to apply too much glue or it will seep into the barrel and ruin your accuracy.

Adjustment Backspin with the Hopup Unit:

Adjusting the backspin with the hopup unit will become a much more delicate process as compared to traditional bucking setups. Your stock nub will work well if it can be easily collapsed and isn't abnormally hard. Feel free to experiment with different nubs. I am developing an adhesive nub similar to the Hunterseeker Armory M-nub but made from a harder material.

5. Extended Concave Contact Patches

Extended All-Season Concave Contact Patch (AS-ECCP).

AS-ECCP installed in a Prometheus EG stainless barrel.

The AS-CCP's big brother. This extra long contact patch is able to lift BBs in excess of .43g with ease and is able to apply even more consistent hop on all weights of BBs without overhopping when installed correctly. These patches require the user to extend the barrel window to ~10mm and modify the hopup unit to be able to apply downward pressure across the entire patch.

Price: $12.50 shipped per 4-pack

Installation is similar to the standard length AS-CCP but much more careful tuning is involved.

6. Sorbothane Pads with Neoprene Impact Faces

V2/3 Sorbothane pad and offset version.

Like how an airbag works to arrest a person inside a vehicle in the event of a crash, Sorbothane pads work to prevent gearbox fractures and reduce stress, as well as correct the angle of engagement between the sector gear and piston while slightly muffling sound. Each pad is composed of a 3/16” thick stamped Sorbothane disc and an 1/8” thick neoprene disc for a total thickness of 5/16”, perfect or nearly perfect for most angle of engagement adjustments. Unlike competitors’ Sorbothane pads, these pads come with bonded neoprene impact faces as a standard feature to prevent piston head ports from disintegrating the bare Sorbothane. Prevent this from happening in the first place:

Price: $4.00 each shipped

7. M-Series Full Stock Washer

M-Series Full Stock Washer

M-Series Full Stock Washer installed on lower receiver

More of a conceptual exercise than anything else, the M-Series Full Stock Washer is made to fill the space between a full M16 stock and the lower receiver. When you forget to reinstall yours and lose it or when your full stock kit lacks this piece, now you have a source of readily-available replacements.

Price: $6.00 each shipped

8. Angle of Engagement Adjustment Washers

Set of 4 Angle of Engagement Adjustment Washers

Much like how gears can be shimmed to be more efficient, pistons can be shimmed as well. Adjusting the angle of engagement between the first sector gear tooth and first piston tooth alleviates stress and yields a longer-lasting piston. These adjustment washers are made of super-low-friction PTFE and are about 0.03” thick. Combined with a 5/16” Sorbothane shock-absorbing pad, 1-4 washers may be needed to perfect the angle of engagement.

WARNING: Take precaution when adjusting the angle of engagement between the piston and sector gear. Complete removal of the second piston tooth is required and partial removal of the third tooth is usually necessary. Lightening of the piston assembly, also known as “Swiss-cheesing”, is highly recommended in AEGs with high cyclic rates.

Price: $6.50 shipped per each 4-pack

9. Standard Motor Connectors

Standard motor connectors.

Tin-plated brass motor connectors sold in packs of 4 with a length of heat shrink tubing for the user to cut to length and install accordingly. The motor wires will lay across the brush hoods and connect to the motor terminals from the top.

Price: $2.70 shipped per each 4-pack

10. Right-Angle Motor Connectors

Right-angle motor connectors.

Brass motor connectors sold in packs of 4 with a length of heat shrink tubing for the user to cut to length and install accordingly. The motor wires will connect to the motor terminals from the sides, creating more space for the motor end grip to properly seat against the endbell.

Price: $2.90 shipped per each 4-pack
