Last night I just got my B2K4 w/pds. It's black/red fade, and looking pretty good except for that it came with the 03' reg. But anyways I got a few questions:

1. Does anyone know where I can find a diagram pointing out all the parts?

2. My egg had been previously sanded for my old gun and now it's way too small for this feed neck. Do I have to buy a new feed neck for the egg or can I do something to make it fit? (thought about wrapping in duct tape.)

3. Are the hose fittings supposed to move around easily? Because they do.

4. I looked in the front of the gun and noticed that my bolt was too small(i could see out the other side). Would it be ok to play a full day even with blow-back? I have pds so will I really notice that much?

That's all for now. I'll post up pictures as soon as I play with it and make sure everything running smoothly. Thanks.

Yes..I'm first for once.

1 . www.icd-owners.com

2. Electrical tape and get a clamping feedneck anyway

3. You're lucky they do move around easily.

4. Your egg is a gravity feed and it'll just kinda shoot those balls up. If you dont' get mad blowback don't worry about it. I think that it might be okay for a while.

5. maybe a force feed hopper would be better for you anyway.

1. There should be a diagram in your owners manual. But they also have diagrams on www.icdownersgroup.com (look under downloads). and www.icdowners.com

2. stick a piece of paper in there.

2. use electrical tape

electrical tape works well too, but sometimes it kinda rides up on the hopper feedneck, kinda like what happens to your boxers if you sit down and stand up too much :P . Try electrical tape first, if that doesnt work well, then try a folded piece of paper.

Well I went to the shop tonight to use their chrono to set the regs. It's running at like 300 psi. Why so high? The guy at the shop said the reg may just need to break in. Oh, and I don't have blowback:D . I tried the test with a paper towel and the towel didn't move at all. Sorry, one more thing, I got some really bad trigger bounce. Is there a way to adjust my trigger to get rid of it?

Does anyone know why it would be running so high? When we turned it below that it wouldn't cycle.

To break in your reg dry fire your gun about 2 4500 fills, if you have free air, and then adjust your regs. To adjust your regs turn your hpr till the gauge reads 225-250 unless you have aftermarket parts that will lower your operating pressure. Then turn your lpr up and adjust according to the readings of the chrono.

Today, I was just shooting in my back yard. At first the gun wasn't really shooting and the bolt wouldn't go all the way back. So then I adjusted my lpr until the bolt went all the way back. Then I adjusted the hpr so that it was about 230 psi and it was shooting well. But I have no idea what the setting on my lpr would be. Is it ok just to adjust the lpr until it shoots well or is it important to have it set a certain way?

Well. when i got my BKO it wasn't properly greased.....so after i did that it was smooth enough to lower the pressure and still get it to work smoothly. Mine is like 240psi and the lpr is how i adjust the velocity.

set your HPR to 225-250. Turn your LPR in til you hear a hiss, then do a quarter turn back out. Adjust your FPS with your inline reg from then out. Its in your manual i suggest you read it.

I read the entire manual before I even messed with the gun, but it's not exactly the best. For example, it said to turn in til you hear the hiss and then back out 2 turn(think it was a typo). Now that I know it's a quarter turn I'll do that, thanks.

Kinda dumb question, but isn't the hpr on the inline reg?

Kinda dumb question, but isn't the hpr on the inline reg? The HPR IS the inline reg.

I thought so ,but yoda mentioned hpr then inline reg, so it just confused me a little bit. Thanks

yeah. HPR=High Pressure Regulator. or Inline, whichever. you're slipping Yoda. :finger:

Dont think we wont send you Gomster, cause we will.

No problem, it shouldn't have been confusing I just took it the wrong way. I guess that's what happens when your paronoid that you gotta be doing something wrong.:paranoid:

I looked at the all the sites listed plus the official icd site to get the diagram. The main reason I wanted it was to see where the parts mentioned in the lubing section of the FAQ were, and what they looked like. Well, they aren't much help. First they're of an older bushy, which might not even matter. But the main thing is that not all the parts mentioned in the lubrication section are listed on the diagram(i.e. the ram). If only there were a guide with pictures... :wink2:. So does anyone have a suggestion of where to find an easier way?

That is a good one. Their photo guide to disassembly looks really helpful. It's of an old bushy, but I think it's basically all the same except for where the battery goes.

yep internally all versions of b2ks are basically the same

Well of course, but from both here and other sources I atleast know the all the basic. Oh and, by the way, does anyone know where to get lighter hammers to lessen kick? If you look on pbnation.com you'll know what talking about, but I mean besides those.

If you look on pbnation.com you'll know what talking about, but I mean besides those. the only ones I know of I found out about on PBN, so you probly know them too. that one guy made a delrin hammer, Goldie is coming out with a new lightweight hammer, the MAC Ram will be out soon, and that guy on ICD-O who makes the titanium pull pins can mill down your stock hammer to make it lighter.

I saw Goldie's. Have you heard if any are better than the others. I just hope Goldie releases the price and availabity soon.

lotus_esprit5

havent heard anything about price or performance on either the Vapor or MAC rams.

Goldie hasnt released any release information yet just enough to wet out whistles. I am very interested in this though and prob will be one of the first in line (like always). I have talked with one of the testers to get more info and it seems better and better then more i talk to him about it.

Looks good, that tape takes away some class though:)

And yes there is a typo in the ICD manual. It says two turns for the LPR once it bleeds off. I tried adjusting it and it wouldn't do anything at that setting. I called up ICD and they had a good laugh when I asked why 2 turns wasn't working, apparently the manual got out with that typo.
