Replacement Hop up unit for Hicapa 5.1?

hey guys

I just broke the hop up unit in my WE Hicapa while modding it.

Is there any replacement ones I could find somewhere, tried out UNC, RW, and WGC with no luck. Found one at Evike but they are asking $78 just for the shipping!

Any TM compatible hicapa 5.1 hop up unit will work

if anyone know where I could find one, that would be great

thanks

the piece that pushes down on the hop up rubber was cricket. so all shots were curving waaaaaaaaaaaay to the left.

What tried was to ply the piece to curve right a little, so it will be centered.

apparently I used too much force when I was plying it...

Brian's climbing a mountain right now for his charity thing.

I'd suggest getting a marui capa instead, fires much better than the WE clones.

they are a nice gun though. nice weight, heavy slide (if you're into that) and very accurate.(well at least mine is) and look great. but next time im going KSC or TM.

Find a store which sells a WE HiCapa and buy one, then ask them only to send slide with the internals. They cost $100, but at least you get a bunch of spares.

ive thought about doing that...buying a gun and having just the slide and the mag shipped... do you thing UN or WGC would do that?

well I just talked to redwolf and they say they would charge extra $50 for the disassembly.

Yes, taking out the slide and the mag costs $50 to do.

I'll have to wait for Tirador to come back =(
