The plastic body is really really really bad had a crack right out of the box. As for a loner weapon you have to really really hate the guy you are loaning it too because of it's inaccuracy and if you rent it god bless the guy that is renting it. Every once and a it misfires and bb's rolls out of the barrel. For you Newbies out there DO NOT BUY the TF-16 unless you want to really upgrade it. It does not shoot fine out of the box the accuracy well make the guys at the local field laugh until there is no tomorrow. When the fire selector is set to semi automatic it does not fire until you move it almost halfway from semi automatic to full automatic. The metal is low grade I belive zinc. The kraken actually has steel parts and not zinc <potmetal> The kraken is a better buy than the TF-16 as a starting weapon! Time to mod it!

I bought one from the local army surplus store and all I had to do was tweek the hop-up slightly and it shoots perfect with .2g bbs. Mine is accurate from 100ft. + so maybe its just yours

ive been looking around and i cant find spare magazines for the TF16 and i was wondering if there is a place to get them? if so where?

Contact UmarexUSA on their site.
Edit : They're $16.95 + S&H $9.95. Lawl.. shitty mags tho the feeding is so crappy. Trying to find out what mag can fit on it.

I thought i heard that if you switch out the hop up, you can use standard mags...

I have a Tf16 and whenever I put it on full auto, it only shoots like 2 or 3 bbs, then just stops shooting. Is this because the gun is faulty, or is there sumtin I can fix?

TF-16 stock parts are pretty shaddy.The hopup on mine was more like plastic than rubber. Could be just jamming.

what do I need to fix, and how do I do it?

can you buy a full metal conversion kit for this gun? I have it and the plastic body broke, So if you could help me, it would be greatley appreciated!

It would be a horrible waste of money seeing as you'd need to replace EVERYTHING. If your 18+ look into getting age verified so you'll have access to the B&S section, where real airsoft is sold.

Watch the stock on that thing, its going to break.

I had basically the same thing but spring version (it looks IDENTICAL) but had a normal m4 stock.

It broke off quite easily, I dont know maybe this one is of better materials.

well, I am going to be using this gun as my loaner for my buddy (just ordered me a KWA km4s from mopics). This gun feels like a pos, but reading your thread made me somewhat optimistic about this gun.

I was advised to to upgrade the hop-up and get better batteries, just wondering what would be the best battery to get for this and what hop-up unit i will go good into this and where to order these items from?

on a side note. I would have no idea how to upgrade it though. i am assuming I can find some information on mechbox.com ?

Does this have a one piece metal outer barrel front end?

USE IT AS A LONER GUN

DONT TOUCH IT leave it the way it is...

I ended up useing the gearbox and the stock for my project gun....

this gun is good as a rental and a backup.

if u want replace the things stated other than that dont do external mods...
