Trolling? Everything I have posted has been legit... Just because I know you guys are more milslim oriented than I am doesn't make ne a troll. Jesus. To whom ever said an AUG would be a good choice it would be. However the trigger system is kind of a pain. Also, the motor plate is weak. However I made a guide on Airsoftsociety to remedy the problem.

I almost considered going for a P90 DMR just because it's easier (as far as I can tell) to use a scope. Course, I feel like having a footlong can would make it look amazingly stupid.

The super extended barrel of a P90 would definitely worry me. I am a pretty clumsy person and I know in a tight situation, my muzzle awareness definitely drops. Dumping all that cash to bend the barrel would be a heart breaker.
And Yes Thompson,
By definition what you did is trolling. If not in this post your other. Which I just saw. I know plenty of Ohio Players that are most definitely heavily geared towards Mil-Sim.

Barrel length is fairly irrelevant in airsoft. However, there is a picture of a p90 with a rather large can in the thread I posted earlier. It should give you an idea of what it will look like. Trolling? Everything I have posted has been legit... Just because I know you guys are more milslim oriented than I am doesn't make ne a troll. Jesus. Keyword being I. I don't understand why you guys are giving me so much hate. I give solid views with plenty of support. Just because its not the same doesn't mean I'm trolling. If the world has come to the point where opinions can't be spoken then when will there be progress? It takes some one to be different for there to be any change in the world, be that good or bad. As far as I can tell you guys all have the same outlook on what's good and bad in airsoft. Who is to say those views are perfect? Who is to say just because one new guy has a different view he is wrong? Maybe I mistook this forum for one to judge a user on their research, quality of post, and manner at which they present themselves. It seems it more about agreeing with everyone else and having a large post count.

What is your exact definition of trolling? Seems like that term is getting more and more loosely used nowadays and not everyone is on the same page. Also care to point out exactly where he trolled and how it meets your standards for trolling? I'm not siding with anyone or attacking you here, I'm just trying to help out as an unbiased viewer. Also, I agree a lot of people in Ohio are mil-sim oriented, but a lot aren't as well. I think it depends mainly on your area and fields near you as there are different play styles offered at each. Onto my thought on the thompson. I have mixed emotions, I like it, but it makes me want to gag if I look at it wrong. Like a girl with a nice body, but ugly face. If it was done a little bit cleaner that gagging may subside.

[...]Maybe I mistook this forum for one to judge a user on their research, quality of post, and manner at which they present themselves. It seems it more about agreeing with everyone else and having a large post count. I've picked up on that too, and while I know some of my "older" posts needed what was said, some more recent ones have been the subject of that, too. And while it doesn't seem to be too much based on post count, it does seem a very "agree with the group or else" community. Maybe its because we aren't as spread out as in Ohio, maybe not. There will always be someone a lot of people don't like.

Maybe I mistook this forum for one to judge a user on their research, quality of post, and manner at which they present themselves. It seems it more about agreeing with everyone else and having a large post count. Here's the part where I simultaneously back you up, as well as tear you down. The good: You can have your own opinion - I personally like the idea that you are tearing apart your Thompson and doing something creative with it, and have confidence you can make something that'll look great in the end as opposed to a shop job, hence my comment in your gallery thread. I for one welcome dissent, as well as uniqueness - just about everyone roleplays a Green Beret or a Navy SEAL, and it's highly likely there are more Mk 18's and 416's and IR strobes in airsoft than there are in the Special Forces community... we could use something different. The neutral: A "Designated Marksman Rifle" is objectively a rifle that fills in the gap between sniper rifles and normal infantry small arms. Sure, all airsoft guns run on relatively similar internals, but an up-barreled P90 with a high capacity magazine The bad: - "I posted the same thing on MIA can't wait for their reaction." Either you are shit-talking, or simply name-dropping MiA. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it's the latter, but there's no need to name drop like this on other public forums.

I was teasing Knief. I know he is an admin here. If you noticed in that thread I was replying to him. He has long teased me for what I have done to the Thompson. I was just returning the teasing. Of course you guys all assumed I was being an ass.

The problem is, without facial cues or voice cues, its hard to pick up on your meaning. Because of that, it leads to things being taken out of context.

Well I didn't intend for it to be read by a bunch of angry people. I knew that Knief would understand since we are fairly friendly on that board. Had I known I would be attacked over it I would have added a emotion.

Ignoring flamefest, what parts would need replacing for a DMR? Just for future reference if anything.

Depends on what your goals are. I recently just opened a KS P90 gearbox and have a good amount of photos of the internals. Assuming you went with it...
The bushings. (Brass stock) Piston (Jg creme looking...) Airnozzle/cylinderhead/pistonhead all of these needed changed for the perfect seal. Motor (didn't use it but it seemed weak)
That's all that I would change in the gearbox. For barrels I would get a prommy 6.03 and rhop it. Length is up to you. Just make sure it correspond with your cylinder.
