actually do canted rails + red dot work at all? i get the real life use involves canting the gun sideways and that doesn't work in airshit, but i wonder if i could just use the red dot without canting the gun. putting the red dot on top of my LPVO is not an option

Thinking of getting a 2nd gun. An HK416, preferably. I have narrowed it down to VFC HK416A5 V3 GBBR and Arcturus AEG ver.
Is it a hassle to maintain and clean a GBBR? I've heard the magazines are very fragile because they need to be air tight.
I am also worried if AliExpress replicas can withstand the recoil from the GBBs, or should I invest in some quality attachments.

>but i wonder if i could just use the red dot without canting the gun
to clarify i mean like putting it on the left side instead of right, like pic related (i just flipped the original picture horizontally). that way you could use it without canting the gun

i don't have one but it seems totally doable to have it on the left side, and it seems like it'd be more comfortable to use it like that anyway. is there any reason why people put their canted rails/sights on the right side normally?
>>
>>241765
>is there any reason why people put their canted rails/sights on the right side normally?
ok nvm i was able to figure out that it mainly has to do with having the optic over bore so you can properly zero and your shots aren't offset as well. i can imagine it's a necessity for longer range shooting irl, but i can't imagine that really matters for airsoft engagement ranges and accuracy requirements
>>
Do TMs have specifically strong coatings or am I just retarded?
Shit seems so strong.
>>
>>241764
Personally going to suggest the GBBR because I think it'd be more interesting - mags are tougher than people give them credit for but feed lips are the main trouble spot, though the ones on VFC mags tend to be pretty sturdy AFAIK
As for maintenance, literally just buy some Super Lube 21030 and follow Explosive Enterprise's GBB maintenance guide on the matter; can be summarized as "field strip, clean old lube, apply small amount of new lube, reassemble"
His paracord boresnake video is also pretty helpful since a clean barrel can make a surprising difference as far as accuracy goes
>>241775
If you're referring to the MWS, pretty sure they're all Cerakoted which is way stronger than the usual airsoft paintjobs

The new vfc gbb?
I have had this S&t ppsh and you have to remove the ebb because it will eat itself. The materials are too cheap. Otherwise it's fine. The hop up comes from a Thompson and you will have to change the hop rubber and nub because it can barely hop 0.25 ootb. Also the trigger switch is from a m249 just in case it fries. Wiring is pretty shit too.
Then there's the snow wolf which is the same as the S&t but faux wood.

>>241928
i was also briefly considering just running the LPVO but i assume like it's impractical trying to get the eye relief right within any kind of closer range engagement where people run around. i prefer to aim down sights a lot even in close range (semi only in my area + i suck at point shooting)

my experience with magnified scopes is limited to firing real guns with big boy scopes instead of LPVOs however.

ive actually entertained the idea since i actually have some parts and a need for an 1.2J-1.4J joule range SMG. but i can't get a cyma plat mp5k right now and regardless i feel it might be a bit irresponsible after closing in 2k spent in the last 2 months

1.7J for rifles, 1.2J for SMGs (full auto allowed for them)

>>242031
i get why it's good in airsoft but i just can't get into the whole deal with companies using the AR15 receiver for everything, and using one for 9mm just seems like sheer hubris to me. at least the DE SMGs make a good effort to mask that they're repackaged AR15s

i was also hoping to go as compact and small as possible. like i thought about getting a DE M924 but i think even that is too big. really not a lot of SMGs that are even smaller except the mp5k

the gas pistols? yeah that would be most compact and fun but i'm hesitant to do anything gas related because of the magazines, especially for full auto usage

i found some specna arms edge 2.0 x-series guns on sale for €225 on gunfire.com. it's definitely bigger than an MP5k and i don't really like AR style guns, but it's hard to argue with the stock stats and the price. however i've read that specna arms fell off big time at one point due to QC issues and i don't know if they've ever really recovered. what's the situation on that right now?

maybe i should just wait for the cyma plat mp5k to restock. i guess i could get something else too (like the ARP9 mentioned earlier) but i tend to buy stuff on sale if i can help it

A friend and i are going to build a milsim loadout, we are going to run identical kit and we decided we want AR15 GBBRs so, whats the best option that is:

-easy to find parts in US
-have decent performance OOTB

-its easy to find mags

So far we are between GHK, TM MWS and KWA, i know cyma have the T8 system, but nobody seems to talk good about that

If its a system that you dont have already, like your first GBBR or HPA, keep it, otherwise try to flip it because collecting tens of plastic crap is annoying and hard to do maintenance after a while

If you really need to buy something off your list buy the TM. Other than that there's VFC with decent OOTB performance and plenty of aftermarket. Nobody talks about cyma bullshit because it's aping TM while being proprietary.

An MWS is just going to get you right, I'm knee deep in an APFG (VFC) MCX right now and I'm trying to figure out how and why my gas routers are getting torn on some magazines. This was after replacing the hop arm and bucking to get it to atleast hop .45s without sending them to the moon.

they can't decide what causes it so I'm just going to file the nozzle arm thingy and hope it works. Also their advice is shitty and nonspecific.

NTA but I wish the faggot japs made at least one variant with a fixed carry handle. I know there are receiver kits but I'm not going to pay several hundo on top of the already expensive gun and mags.

it's an AEG and i have a couple already, but it's currently my main assault rifle. it's the F2000 that i've talked about earlier

to sum up, i definitely wanted and still want a good bullpup, but the F2000 feels very half-baked and needs a lot of small issues fixed before it can be fielded, like the air voluming, the trigger, and spring twang. the ergos are also kinda retarded, like most of the weight is towards the back, but your main hand has to grip the gun by the dumb thick donut hole design, which makes it difficult to do a lot of fast shoulder changes and other things like that. it's also just a really bulky gun. it seems most viable for like a pseudo-DMR configuration where you abuse its longer barrel, easy teching and very comfortable shooting position to patiently shoot from afar, but that's really not the role i bought it for

there's a lot of things i still like about it because of the bullpup configuration, and i was going to just accept its faults, but then i found out i had totally missed the SSR77 when looking for bullpup options. the SSR77 seems much better out of the box and has better ergos than the F2000, now i want to get one of those instead rather than try to make the F2000 work better

new BCG using the MCX-style nozzle that's significantly easier to work on, new hop unit design that can be removed without OB removal (think like their AK-74M), and IIRC due to using MCX nozzles comes with an NPAS - has been informally called the V4 system and I wouldn't be surprised if it gradually becomes standard on all rifles going forward

>>242639
the only Berettas worth getting are the "Gen 2" Tokyo Maruis with hop up

>>242639
Nah they are decent, but you have to be aware that 80% of the aftermarket world for GBB pistols are for Hi-Capas, so if you are buying a glock, sig sauer, beretta, etc, you are basically buying something that only accepts stock parts (even VFC glocks have _some_ aftermarket), plus if you're in Europe mags can be hard to find.

i looked into it myself a while back and the options are pretty abysmal. h8r is among the most workable options because of the 24rd oreo clip and even that is pretty bad. aside from that there are a few tokyo marui springer ones. most of the CO2 revolvers shoot way too hot for any cqb use, but they at least have proper shells for immersion. supposedly you can get low power shells for them but i was told they also suck. in short: it's fucked mate
>>
>>242666
I'm not too worried about it shooting hot, I just want something fun that won't just break itself after 100 shots. I'm looking at the umarex because I have one of their paintball guns which is pretty fun, but I'd prefer metal for the feel.

are you just going to plink with it? if so you may want to get an airgun instead. a lot of airsoft revolvers are pretty half-assed airgun conversions, which means shit/no hop up and other issues.

i realize i probably shouldn't even be giving input since i don't own any airsoft revolvers, but afaik very few people do. i've never met one myself, even online. but if i were to own one it'd be the schofield.

>>
>>242680
wingun, sometimes rebranded as ASG. supposedly it's decent but it's definitely more meant for the replica/airgun market than airsoft usage

note that many CO2 airsoft revolvers can cause actual bleeding wounds, and shooting anyone in the face area with one is very bad news. but i guess if you and your friends are grown ass man wearing baggy clothes and paintball masks then you won't cause permanent damage to each other
>>
>>242680
>>242683
also i failed to point it out but the wingun schofield comes in both airgun pellet and airsoft versions, as do many other co2 revolvers. the airsoft version is typically an afterthought. much like the real life schofield it's going to be front heavy so not the most comfortable gun for kids to shoot though lol

TM-spec Glocks (Gen3-based in particular, though TM's newer Glocks in the G19 and Gen4 line onwards have very good fundamental upgrades to the design and have a decent amount of support) are the second-most supported pistol platform on the market, personally own a KJ G17 that lasted four years before needing parts swapped and now has a GM alum slide, GM Ti-coated trigger lever and Guarder blowback bits
If you want the best performance possible, TM's Gen5 Glocks upgraded to nylon slides and feature the most up-to-date internal designs of any of them, with a decent amount of support; that being said the KJ G17 (or the KP-13 if you live in the US and can't/won't order from out of country) is a pretty solid option for an entry-level airsoft pistol that's compatible with TM G17 Gen3 aftermarket (just make sure to use gas mags running propane, CO2 mags will absolutely beat the piss out of the gun)
>>242638
Not many options; there's TM-style revolvers that hold gas and 20+ BBs in the cylinder, or shell-fed revolvers that use actual shells which hold the ammunition; most common option for the latter's Wingun revolvers, which do surprisingly have aftermarket thanks to CL Project (as they're the most commonly used revolvers for IPSC Action Air), but expect parts to eventually wear out and need replacement (maybe not in 100 rounds or less, but a buddy of mine treated his damn-near perfectly and still wound up dealing with the timing getting fucked on it eventually)
Also, while low-power shells exist, another option if your goal isn't maximum immersion is 3D-printed shotshells; there's plenty of designs out there for them (including some honeycomb-clip designs that have the added benefit of bridging the gap between the CO2 output and the cylinder, on top of being moonclipped) and let you turn your fuck-your-shit handgun into a reasonably alright pocket shotgun
(You can also just print single-BB shells, low-power or otherwise, and save a boatload on ammo)

I fucking hate this hobby. I guess fuck you if you want something else other than generic mallninja larper AR with 5 metric tons of useless shit strapped to it or generic mallninja larper AK with 5 metric tons of useless shit strapped to it. I guess VFC recently changed it up a bit with those retro M16s, FALs and shit like that but there are still no good WW2 GBBRs at all no it didn't change much. How I wish some competent company made a GBB Thompson, BAR, MP40 or StG44. Even a Bren would be sick. There is a little bit more variety with AEGs but I'm over sewing machines and lack of firing feedback.
>>
>>242718
I know it's WE but isn't their Thompson fine? But yea a good GBB Mp40 would be sick. I've tried the SRC/Cybergun one and it feels cool to shoot but the mags being dual CO2 just ruins it.
Besides that get the VFC PPSH?
>>
>>242691
God I fucking hope so - at the very least the V4 BCGs w/ MCX nozzles are backwards-compatible with V3s, but it would be nice to have that easy-to-swap hop solution in a gun that's just a little less generic without likely needing to extensively modify the upper receiver to house it
>>242718
Manufacturers will always prioritize the most recognizable options first before going niche, and ARs are used by almost every western military in some capacity (plus multiple Asian countries) - from there you go to the less common things slowly
VFC just dropped a GBB PPSh that seems pretty good (drums only, though the way they're constructed lets you swap out ammo feed tracks for quick mag-reloading), WE has a Thompson that seems potentially okay, Northeast has a Sten that seems alright(?), and I think SRC has an MP40 (though it's one of SRC's homegrown designs, meaning zero aftermarket available) but yeah, options are limited because WW2 stuff is pretty niche by modern standards - personally wouldn't mind a new GBB M1 Garand that uses enblocs, kinda like Marushin but with greater durability, or an M3A1 grease gun

>get the VFC PPSH?
They made one of the few WW2 guns I absolutely don't care about.
>>242733
>Thompson, Sten, MP40
All of these are average to bad. I already mentioned the Thompson, Sten has terrible accuracy, vents gas all the time because they didn't bother correctly designing the magazine and you basically can't get parts for it when something breaks and it will break. MP40 is just bad all around from what I've seen. I would gladly pay €1k for a low production WW2 replica if I knew it was actually good OOTB. That's not going to happen because I haven't even seen any popular guns, be it AEG or GBB, priced like that where you didn't have to fuck around with it to improve performance, fix some stupid, underlying issue or it just straight up broke after a while. Airsoft manufacturers just don't give a shit because they know their consumer base will gobble up whatever they shit out anyway.

oh good hint, there are some on sale in a store very close by

sad. airsoft truly is an ar15 world

Unfortunately the world is also an ar15 world.

I have a Dye, AKs I don't need a riser due to the lower stock and with anything else I my Hydra

>Unfortunately the world is also an ar15 world.
it really is lol. reminds me of the US military claiming they want to adopt a new rifle for like 25 years and then rejecting all new rifles anyway, even if they were better than the AR15. i think the only reason the US military approved the H&K 416 and the SIG XM7 as replacements was because the those companies went out of their way to make them look like the good old AR15 (even though they are internally not similar at all)
>>
>>242764
it's an older design. Wish VFC upgraded it. Wanted to get one but decided to go with the FAL.
>>
>>242769
Nah the us military went with the SPEAR because someone in charge of procurement has a bunch of stock in Sig, same reason they bought a bunch of pistols that shoot themselves

fal is cooler imo. g3 has always just looked like an oversized mp5 to me
>>
>>242774
It's the other way around for me. MP5 is a midget G3

>>242775
sorry i saw matrix when i was a child so to me mp5 is actually a bigger mp5k.

Whats the best lower facemask to wear with bump helmet and goggles for weekend larp events? I tried a mesh mask years ago and it hurt my nose.

>I tried a mesh mask years ago and it hurt my nose.
they hurt my nose out of the box as well, but you can typically shape them with your fingers to assist with that. also some come with optional foam inserts to help with fit

So far I’m impressed with the VFC 74. It feels exactly like my real 5.45 AKs
>>
>>242851
now if only they released an AKM or at least an AKS-74U
>>
>>241764
>Thinking of getting a 2nd gun. An HK416, preferably. I have narrowed it down to VFC HK416A5 V3 GBBR and Arcturus AEG ver.
>Is it a hassle to maintain and clean a GBBR? I've heard the magazines are very fragile because they need to be air tight.
>I am also worried if AliExpress replicas can withstand the recoil from the GBBs, or should I invest in some quality attachments.

Mainaining a GBB is easy, just look up dissasembly video, regularly clean old grease and relube.

Ive been through 6-7 "airsoft" red dots and all of them are shit, all of them had some kind of weird ass issue.

but GBBR recoil is so light that it should be a non-issue though. IMO just buy a proper red dot for 100-150 usd.

the VFC mags are actually pretty tanky, they're a good design and its easy to fix leaks. Usually it involves tightening a valve or relubing orings.

IMO GBBRs are better in every way except convenience.

TM MWS and VFC ar-15s checkmark both of these, but the MWS is the definite plug and play rifle. (the DE one, not so much)

Having both the VFC and MWS, the VFC just feels so much nicer than the MWS, realism and recoil. VFC mags are also lighter.
>>
>>242396
If you havent replaced the plastic piston, i'd do that. Especially on a DMR.
>>
>>242718
if they made a BAR, STG, or a BREN they'd all be 800-1200 dollars. Like the Northeast FAMAS is over 900 dollars.
>>
>>242771

the spear is riddled with so many issues that i wouldn't be surprised it ends up being scrapped

how do you go bout making gas a financially sound decision in colder temperatures ? No silicon lubed gas runs me 10€ for about 750ml of gas. I find that shit bareley is enough for 1,5 game days. My pistol eats it like hotcakes, my rifle does too, there is no cheaper ready to buy Gas that i know of. I would get my hands on a VFC if the m16 was anywhere near affordable. No used ones ever get sold and shit runs 600€+ new. Anyways im sure europe is different when it comes to gas but maybe i dont know something yet
>>
>>242896
If they were actually good and didn't break then like I said before I'd be willing to pay that much. We both know it wouldn't be the case though.
>>
>>242639
Well lads, went to the nearby shop and got myself a cz shadow 2. The Glocks looked cool but felt also cheap and way to light. they also didn't had the m9a3 in the store, which was sad, but fuck it, maybe next time

What about those welding propane bottles? They run me like 14 CAD for one and work decently in the autumn.

>CZoy
you fucked up
>>
>try an aug for the first time
>forearm keeps knocking against the magazine due to the way the pistol grip is shaped because i keep trying to hold it like an AR
now i get why the f2000 is shaped the way it is. it kinda forces you to grip it in a style that is more natural for bullpups. i wonder if the tavor would feel more natural than the aug

ASG sucks
>>
>>242893
Least shit AEG
>>
>>242943
Why? Whats wrong with ASG?
>>
>>242934
i actually kinda like many of their aspects, even ergonomically, but i think only the f2000 and p90 feel like they're really designed with those limitations in mind, instead of just sticking the mag in the back of a normal rifle like most of them do
>>
>>242943
You do know asg makes nothing right? It's the same as Umarex or Cybergun. They just license stuff. The CZ pistols are all made by KJW
>>
>>242951
cybergun makes logos and puts them on guns for a mere extra 100 dollar price tag
>>
>>242916
So the beautiful thing about green gas is that its similar to propane... in fact, it IS PROPANE.

you can buy the camping cans that are about 1/3 the price of green gas. Better yet, if you're willing to invest into it, you can get a propane tank and refill the cans as well.

When it comes to "winterizing your GBB" VFCs are not really well suited for cold weather OOTB. You'll need to swap a few springs to make it ideal for that.

They do actually make a few things, like the skorpion.
>>
>>242944
Then literally any G&G with a G2 gearbox would work, doesn't have to be the arp9

>>242953
Evike owns cybergun now IIRC
>>
>>242968
Guy wanted a small gun
Also it comes with a battery and charger, super easy to recommend to new folks
