RAW REPORT

Dear Bb.

What alterations do you do to the regulators?

I understand that if we can reduce the size of the reg., the regulator chamber will be increased automatically.

Huma is working on it.

The alterations to the reg are not for power but for efficiency in sub 12. The hole in the centre of the push pin on a raw is 0.8mm, this allows air to quickly pass during the shot for fac power but in sub 12 the flow is best restricted down to 0.3mm. I also change the sealing material in the nose of the reg from Pu to delrin and engineer in 0.3mm of endfloat rather than adjusting it and comprising the collar o ring.

for power you can shorten the core, use stronger belville washer and a smaller profile nut, all these free up prechamber volume or you can attach an external plenum instead of the bottom blanking plug.

If your gun didn’t have a v fill anther simple option for extra volume is a valve chamber extension

Dear Bb.

Since mine is fiited with V type quick fill and gauge, I think I cant extend the pre chamber. I can only reduce the size of regulator by shortening the length of the core and using thicker "Cup" washers.

But I will need some measurements for this alteration

Umair, 

best people to speak to about short core regs if Nick who makes an excellent nano core reg (these are exceptionally short) or kevg who makes short core regs. Both are on the R7OC pm them, I am sure they can help.

one thing to note, because short core regs have much less stack, they are much more sensitive to adjustment, 1/6 of a turn on the reg nut makes a big difference on reg pressure. It is for this reason I use short core regs when all other volume upgrades are not an option.

Thanks Sir,

I have just sent a PM to Nick.

Place a damp rag on the stock over the ding. Then use your wife's warm iron and iron over the damp rag and ding you want lifted. The steam lifts the ding up. It's very easy, Id recommend doing a test try on scrap wood to get the hang of it first. Also do some testing to make. Sure it doesn't hurt the finish of your stock.

Thanks dear,

I have applied the same method on walnut stocks in the past with success but will it work on the RAW Laminate stock?
 
I am not sure if I have posted these photos before, I apologise if I have but here goes.



here are two RAW hm1000 that I have done for the same customer.

a .177 pistol that gives 170 shots for the 100cc fill, not practical but so much fun.

And a .20 bullpup, 14” barrel, 27” total length, super easy to shoot free hand.

RAW purists will be crying now but both can be returned back to original spec in a few minutes and the owner has about 20 other RAWs he can play with

That is wonderful Bb.
 
Just for the information

I tried H&N Grizzly .25 in my HM1000X 60 ftlb polygonal barrel gun at 70 yards

I am surprised to see that how accurate these slugs are in this gun. Most of the reviews of Grizzly are not good but in my gun I can do some target shooting with these Grizzlys without any problem of accuracy.



Did any one try these?

Does anybody happen to know if you can still special-order a LRT with the "older" version of the laminate LRT stock ? ( The one without the metal M-Lok rail, and with the trigger guard being the wood of the stock ? ) I wouldn't be surprised to hear that part of AirForce streamlining of the RAW production means only the new LRT stock is going to be used.....but it never hurts to ask. Thanks !
 
Hello, I am new on the forum, I live in France and I have a RAW hm & 1000 cal 30.
Do you shoot slugs in your RAW 30 cal?
Some dealers do not recommend slugs in RAW guns.

I've shot slugs in my RAW 25 and 30. There's no problem. The group sizes, however, were maybe twice the size of pellet groups. I think slugs require a barrel with a different twist and no choke.
