As we know, the AR series rifle has been going into a “Lego" situation
and there are tons of accessory parts manufactures in the U.S. for civil use
like Geissele, KNS precision
The replicas from those companies are very popular in airsoft
Nowadays, many Gel Blaster manufactures and workplaces have started to exploit this market
These various types of accessory parts are the keys that why those veterans have such a fancy blaster
This week, I received some cool parts from BJ Tactical
Then let’s give this Kublai K5 a simple appearance upgrade, and see how it looks
First this, Maxim Defense (Is that how it pronounced? ^_^)
CQB Stock, it’s a brace actually
This stuff, to be honest, some firearm companies, they find a grey zone of firearm law
They design this stuff as a holder on your arms, it’s technically not a stock, it’s called brace though
When you put it on arms, the AR isn’t AR anymore, it becomes a pistol
And for a pistol, the tax will be much lower and it will be easy to register
Therefore, many Americans love this baby, then it becomes popular
Let’s take a look
No other accessories Only a core, grab operator, screws, and the brace itself
also, there is a small lock, should be placed here
The appearance of this brace looks like the replica from JingJi which is SB PDW stock
But it is not actually a stock as I said
The replica from JingJi it’s a brace comes from SB Tactical
It looks similar, but the inner structure is different
Butt cover is soft
So it is called a brace, it should be braced on the arm, although most of the people won’t brace it on arms
Let’s try it
how it feels when bracing on the arm
Because of the rubber used on the cover so it is smooth and soft
and feel good when bracing on the arm
Also, its hook-loop belt is flexible
There is a logo of “Maxim Defense” on the bottom
as well as on the downside, sculptured by the laser, logo there
The inscription is well simulated
The material of this brace, except the butt cover, are all metal like the core, connections, and the slide track
the core is made by aluminum alloy with an anodized surface, nice work
The lock and the slide track are full metal
Weight 532g, more than a pound
pull the lock to adjust the length, four positions in total
Here is its full length, around 23.5cm
then is the shortest one
Pull this lock to disassemble the brace
The battery storage is a bit different from the JingJi version
here you should open this cap to put the battery in, then put it back to store the battery
Then let’s assemble it with my K5
There it is
With this brace, the blaster looks less violent and aggressive
it looks pretty
This is a dust cover replica of V Seven company
its smooth surface gives a sense of minimalism
It cuts all lines off from the military version, but the aluminum material is thick
And a groove for the spring on the back, anodized surface the same, nice work again
With this dust cover, the fancy level of this blaster goes up rapidly
when your neighbour is still polishing it in the basement, you are already standing and showing your cool stuff on the stage
This little baby is interesting We usually call it “PIN”
It does not exist on the military version AR, why? because it’s only used on civil version
Many civil version AR user will refit their trigger function
If they keep using dowels to assemble their new one-piece trigger parts it may not fit into their guns
So at this time they will use this tool called “PIN”
Of course, this does not apply to gel blaster it’s just a simple decoration
This PIN is made by steel metal
Its outer appearance comes from KNS Precision company
According to BJ Tactical, this PIN is fully simulated by the real stuff in 1:1 scale, the material usage, surface anodizing, and even the screw inside
In order to fit its screw size there is a special key comes with it
See it carefully, the front side decorating dowel is designed in two steps
it should be designed for different types of receiver
The PIN is only a small decoration
but it looks great when putting on the receiver, the reflection of metal anodize makes juicy details on the receiver
The next accessory part is from Geissele Automatics
it is a steel phosphating dowel
Unlike the military version, it has a special skid resistance on the surface
not for practical use, but looks fancy though
More accessory parts for the dowel, basically for assembling the receiver
Just don’t care about how it looks, we’re just entirely different than you!
Here now, it is a replica MK4 handguard from Geissele
which is in the same series as MK8
They got the same inscription “Geissele Automatics” sculptured by the laser
Most of the handguard designs are similar in Geissele
both come with hollow rail, M-Lok connection on three sides
and the limit screw spacing at the butt
But a small variant from MK8, MK4 has three rails with five teeth on three sides
Therefore, no more extra rails/mounts are needed for tactical accessories
The same assembly as MK series, connecting with a thread and two screws
And this thread has a light green (or golden?) anodizing
the whole rail, edges are well done in manufacturing
which are absolutely the basic characters of a high-quality handguard
Unlike the size of MK8, this is a 10-inches handguard, I don’t think MK8 has 10-inches
How is it? Nice decoration, isn’t it?
What a nice look of a civil competition style
BJ tactical also sales many other beautiful replica parts
