Airsoft gun thread.

[Cutthroat]

You cannot by a real sniper rifle for under $300, thats just the base gun. Upgrades will cost tons more money to get shooting effeictivly. I would not try to be the L33t sniper if you are first getting into airsoft or have not been playin with AEGs less than 2 years.

[Stringer4Lax]

I'm getting a TSD full wood and metal RPK soon. MMMM cant wait.

[Lax4life528]

is he getting 70 total? or from each

also does he get to wear a shirt?

70 total. and he gets a shirt.

The hop up units on those suck.

CA just released a "RPK" and I would personally go for that one.

I put RPK in quotes because both SRC and CA got the RPKs wrong. Wrong outer barrel and they did no add the reinforced body like on the real one. Only Russian Mania workshop has a kit with the real body.

Yaa, the hop-up in TSD aks are actually quite nice FYI, better than my Systema Metal one. I know the bodies are incorrect, my family is russian, my uncle used one quite often when he was in the russian military.

EDIT: i forgot to mention how unreliable CA is, mine as well buy a Palco gun.

[hockeyandlax]

Maybe if Systema made an AK hop unit, SRC might be better :grin:

Nothing beats a TM AK hop unit...not sure if you can stick a TM unit into a SRC though. PGC units are also quite nice.

CA's unrealiable? Maybe in 2003 they were...the 2007 models and 2008 models are quite nice. If you're praising SRC and bashing CA you need to check yo' facts.

I was comparing it to my System M4 hop-up. The reason I bash a CA is because of the non- existent quality control. TSD takes SRC and adds the hop-up's motors etc, and gives you a US contact if something goes wrong, cant beat that.

[pylaxer27]

ive got a m85p it is a beast it has a laser,flashlight and a scope.

[iplaylax22]

any good airsoft stories? i airsoft probably every weekend and i was just wonderin if y'all have any stories

TSD/SRC's quality control is worse than CA's.
I don't know where you got the idea that CA QC is horrible. CA is imported by Spartan Imports...and you can contact them in the US. Retailers give a warranty on CA guns so the two things you thought TSD/SRC had on CA are, well, same for both.

I have a Systema M4 hop in my Ssystem right now...with the right hop up sleeve (Guarder, Systema, stock TM) it has wonderful range and consistency. I've shot the SRC "RPK" and was not impressed by its range, considering it hit around 350-370 FPS. My TM M14 that is around 390 shot 50 feet further. The externals decent. You cna't compare it to the VFC though. It's about as nice as CA's AK series in terms of externals.

correct, but seeing as airsoftgi has quit stocking CA's (known fact) it leads me to believe, because of their slacking quality control for a high end weapon, that they are not work the 400 you could spend on one.

[hockeyandlax]

Some companies have stopped carrying CA because they are not as profitable compared to ACM guns. China is undercutting the market...everyone knew this would happen. I would trust a new CA over any ACM on the makret now...but people want to spend 150, not 300 for the "same thing". Evike also stopped stocking CAs.

[MAdGoAliE93]

Dude, we practically have the same arsenal. I just got a JG M4 CQB Full metal. I have a UHC Gas Revolver, 552 Commando, WELL L96 all from Evike.com , that and a cheap blue pistol. I've got a reveiw of the L96 on youtube. just type in * wheatboarder *

LOL if you call that close then I'm sorry :nut:

Sell the L96 and pick up a JG Bar-10.
Much better.

JG doesn't make any metal bodied ARs...did you put on an after market one?

That's how AKs should look boys and girls.

You wanna hook me up with a PKM btw??? :idea:

I'll stick with my ARs with Monster grips and 10 round mags...oh well I can dream.

I just picked up a airsoft AK today...pics coming later.

How much did it run you?

[Easylonerider]

Heres my baby
http://i26.tinypic.com/ileykp.jpg

Unfortunately she has to go. So do all of her accessories. :banghead: Buying a bike is way more important than airsoft to me and if I get a bike and keep the gun how would I drive with it.

[the wister]

How much did it run you?
Less than half a G with 500 rounds.

[ML_LAX09]

That's both pretty cool and slightly worrisome that a gun like that is that cheap.

[timbolax]

anyone bring these to a bank or store ?

400$ right their (i bought it at the flee market) their is a flee market near my house so i went back to my house to get the money :) but i had to buy the scope seperately(the one thats on the stand)

[hockeyandlax]

That's one of those custom M99s Project X made a while back...that's a stock photo so anyone can post it :nahya:
Get one of you holding it :grin:

New AK arrived! Yay!

[the wister]

H&L, do you know where someone can get a G36E or just a regular G36, all the ones I see are compacts or carbines, the short ones, not quite my style.

[vinny a]

http://hotspotairsoft.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21_29&products_id=325

Right there dude, assuming your from the states. HSA will take care of you they are great dudes

[hockeyandlax]

^ what he said.

But CA G36s have some problems when you upgrade them. The wiring harness sucks donkey nuts so if you go above an 8.4 volt battery you'll need a mosfet or to replace your wiring harness every so often.

[I-Like-to-Slash]

I got a fully automatic AK-74 (yes 74it's like a smaller 47)

[hockeyandlax]

The AK-74U is physically smaller, is that what you're talking about?

Or just saying smaller because of it's smaller round?

I've been internetless for a week or two so just catchin' up on mah forums now...

Maybe he's thinking of the AK 74U? Which is both more compact and has a higher fire rate? The regular AK 74 is not much smaller than the 47, it just has some design differences.

The AK-74 is physically longer than the AK-47.
The cyclic rate is basically the same on both rifles...it's just whether you can control a 47.

If you're talking airsoft terms...it doesn't matter what gun you own, the internals are the only thing that matter for ROF.

O there is a big difference between 5.45 and 7.62 :thumbsup:

The Panther Arms is a terrible airsoft AEG.

[Fulltoneguitar]

I've got a spring Mp5 that shoots about 408 fps on avg. I have a mp5 that shoots around 274 on auto, and two berretas that shoot around 308

ive played airsoft but not much rele just w/ my friends. any way are these guns good?
http://www.airsoftmegastore.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=JG%2DM4SS%2DT cheap but sounds good to me? and

[LaX 4 LiF3]

i am building an airsoft field in my backyard. i made it at an angle so that no one will get hit next door or at my house. next is size. it will be for anywhere from 1 on 1 to probobly 5 on 5 at most. should the bunkers be close or far? i am planning on them being about 100-150ft away and theres trees and im gonna put small pices of plywood on the smaller trees where necessary. but my real prob is how many bunkers, and how big? i dont want too many campers or noobs to just sit and hide but dont want no hideing spots

whats a good small gun to hide behind trees but has a good range. like 150-200ft. i was looking for a mp5 but i heard they break easier? and know they have a range limit. that or a rele compact m4 w/ a red dot scope nd a new motor and percision barrel. ooo yea

[hockeyandlax]

I'm not going to get involved in building a field on private property since I only play in areas where airsoft is 100% legal.

All full sized AEGs can get the same range- it's just how you build the gearbox and the hop unit. Give me a price range and I'll hook you up with some links online.

[LaX 4 LiF3]

Return it.

lol it actually a good wep to use. has a nice ROF for a walmart gun and only jams every now and then on .12s which is its only problem!

[hockeyandlax]

Good compared to what?
Spring pistols? Maybe.

Use .20s (Toytecs preferred) and you'll notice a dramatic increase in range and accuracy.

[HVlaxa7]

I have a P99 Stinger
a p99 semi-auto
some crossman full auto that actually shoots very well. (just ask hovallax41..he's felt it. hehehe)
I also have a broken crap pistol.

[optimus_prime]

am i the only one who still rocks a nerf gun?

[DRobinson1692]

HAHAHAHAH I just finished insane nerfing in my friends basement

it was crazyyyy

[dpc1192]

My gun's something like 467 FPS

[optimus_prime]

HAHAHAHAH I just finished insane nerfing in my friends basement

it's sad to say this, but i actually want one of those. i just have a small six-dart revolver, but forty bucks is way to much.

[svlax35]

I have a 60% metal M4-F that shoots 430 fps

[hockeyandlax]

I guess that thing gets nice recoil with no buffer spring LOL

Hey drob want to airsoft on saturday?

[ML_LAX09]

Can anyone give me a link of the nicest AEG I can get for $150-$170?
(mostly you hockeyandlax) Style I don't really care about, but preferably not an MP5.


Thanks.

[sglax8]

I just order a VSR-10. Ill post pics when it comes. I also have a Desert Eagle, and a M8 Carbine.

Well, that style LOOKS the best to you?

From there I can help you out.

[canuklax]

.........a bunch of neighborhood kids buying $15 springers and running around their backyards shooting at each other........[end rant]



Sounds like airsoft to me. I still dont get how you actually play. Like paintball is obvious you can tell if you got hit or not but i am not understanding airsoft.

[ML_LAX09]

M4 style is what is most favorable. Also, metal body is preferred, but I'd rather get a 'plastic' bodied gun if that performs better.

[Elite]

okay. my friends and i like to shoot, we just got some guns and went into a woods where my friend has trails and we play 4v4. the fighting is extremely close range. about....100 ft maybe 150 tops. i want a spring or electric gun, that is good and cheap. under 75. i love airsofting for fun but have no clue on what guns to buy. so any help is appreciated. the average gun that my friends have is a s & w shotty. i want the gun to be maunereble. we are usually on our knees moving under cover or close range. thx again

You'll only pay for it later.

Ok, thank you H.A.L.


I had never looked in the CA section because I had always assumed they were $200+.

[hockeyandlax]

I'm actually selling a TM MP5 (I know you said you don't like MP5s...) for a very good price. It'll be under 200 with 12 mags and upgrades.

PM if you're interested,
