just got this...good deal?
 

i just got this used KJW full metal M9 for $190 shipped. just wondering if it's a good price. most airsoft pistols i see on sites retail for around 200 with tinted grips so i assumed it was a good deal. here's what it includes:

Ditch the BB's for some Bastards, pick up some silicone oil for the magazines, and you should be ready to rock 'n roll.

Its only a good deal until you get it and check it out , you never know how well its been used or what problems will show up

yea definately not using those bb's. i have a bag of bastards lying around in my basement that are waiting to fly now that my rifle is out of commission. :(

that's true...keeping my fingers crossed!

lube it up and charge the mags carefully. if they are dry you'll want to make sure the seals get some silicone in them or you'll blow them out with a full propane charge. seals are not easily found.

if you give it a half second fill and it starts to piss gas, I'd break it down and give the seals and orings a silly bath so that they get nice and fat.

Good deal if that guy hadn't been using those... My personal rule is to not trust people on facebook, but who knows, it may well be in excellent condition.

so, lube, charge slowly and carefully...lube seal and orings if dry or leaky. got it! thanks :D

@yuhaoyang:

i generally don't trust it either but i gave in this time.:rolleyes:

Probably a good idea to take everything in the slide assembly apart and give it a good wipe before you lube them as well to clean out the old dirty dusty lube =p.

how do you know its from facebook???

O-rings are super easy to find for most pistols, especially KJ Beretta's.
Go to any home depot, or any hardware store really.
Get o-rings that are used for taps, try and find the mid-small size. I cant remember the exact dimensions but I can find them for my TM 1911 MEU in o-ring kits by MOEN.

KJ Beretta's are tanks. Just be careful with the right side safety.

main seals are harder to find.

Is that the main seal at the bottom?

The main seals on the bottom of the mags.
Never had any issues aside from a KJ 226 after replacing the stock ones after they go off.

The main seals are the ones that go dry and leak. sometimes can be averted by tightening the screw, but there's only so much to tighten.

lol yep, both my KJW and my WE Beretta's have the same issue, it likes to jump off the gun when firing it, I just take them off just in case.
