  1. Love the F2000...i've heard users say G&G first generation guns have issues though, anyone confirm/deny this? In any event, WANT! HOw much are these running for?

     

     

    Edit: What gearbox version is it? The JLS is a variation of V2 iirc. I would hop V6 but i doubt it...V6 gearboxes are beautiful, though.

  2. Finally got my CA90 in, nice, definitely different balance, got used to it though, definitely a little less easy to whip around, although that's partly Marui's lightness vs CA's real-weight but front heavy.

     

    The detail work isn't as good, yea. The fake screws are like lolwhat? But i don't mind that, really. Surprisngly the trades are quite nice, identical to TM save the P part of P90 on the receiver (Being just 90) and the CA trades where TM had theirs.

     

    Seamwork is a bit disappointing. CA's metal guns are very nicely finished; however, seems they don't quite know how to work plastic (which i suppose is unsurprising). Mine looks smoothed out on the top of the back, behind the mag.

    The plastic feels a lot different, nicer texture imo, a bit more durable i'd imagine, but not too much so

     

     

     

     

     

    My biggest complaint is that where your front hand goes, i get creaks if i twist my hand. Seems the insides aren't matched up quite well enuogh and i can actually see the two halves of the body slightly displacing if apply twisting motion. Tightened the body screws but it didn't solve anything. I think i might end up epoxying it on the outside and then just putting grip tape over it, or rubber grip of some sort.

     

    I can't imagine why no company makes an aftermarket body of higher quality and similar build to the RS version, which is great feeling. I think any P90 owner who could afford one would cash in.

  3. Yee, do you have any experience with the G&P metal upper? Its supposedly the nicest aftermarket one (and the Proarms is confirmed to not fit the CA)...if so, does it weigh less than CA's?

    I'm considering eventually turning my (STILL held by customs) tr into a RDS converted to a TR for a higher mount to allow for mag clamping

  4. Yarr, i got mine from gunner as well.

    Maybe gunner has **** TR's or something, i can't even fathom the reason for that pricing

     

    Still processing atm though...pnc bank is so slow...

     

    But yea, my P90 was creaky if you tried to flex it while holding it and was creaky if you pushed on the sides. Not an issue in games, but still, it was annoying

    Externally in terms of detail work ifully expect TM to exceed CA. But the CA P90 body is made of the same material as their G36 line (at least supposedly..) which is fantastic and at the least, feel better or not, i expect it to be more durable, less plasticky, and less creaky. I sold my TM last week so i should still remember the feel quite well; at least if it was better of worse than CA's

     

    The weight difference will definitely be there, but i don't fault CA for having a nice metal upper. After i get my mag clamp and dynamat the gearbox, and have a 9.6V battery in it, it should be balanced quite well. Plus, when you shoulder the P90, its not a big deal (at least i would imagine)

     

     

    So yea, i'll post my experience and let you know about the weight as well. I plan on getting an Elcan SpectreDR which weighs another pound to add to the frontweight, ha. But i can always weigh the back down if desperate.

     

    Regardless of better body or not, CA's gearbox > TM's stock gearbox for certain, and i, not as good as finding good deals like you :P, found $178 shipped off of gunner too good a deal to miss: used stock TM sold and that same money buying me a new CA TR is a good bid for me. And i hate used guns

  5. Whatt

     

    The reason i got a CA is because my TM's have been creaky as hell

    The G36c i had was a creaky little *****

    The P90tr i had was definitely a bit creaky if you applied any stress as is another TM P90 i handled, which is why i wanted the CA...otherwise i would have stuck with it

     

    Lol our experiences are like opposite

    I'll post my own thoughts when i get it

     

     

    Edit: Oh gawd the Well p90 was one of my first guns...gravity feed LOL

  6. Between my CA90 RD proline and my TM P90 RD, I still like the look and feel of the TM slightly better. A little later, I'll be able to compare the Echo1 to the CA proline to the TM to the toytec (just for kicks) to the Well R9 (just because I can) in pictures, and get a family picture. Yes, I'm a little obsessed.

     

    See http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=176447&st=20&p=2318123entry2318123 and the subsequent post of mine in that thread for my thoughts of the CA proline compared to the TM. I think I disregarded the price because I've bought basically all my P90s used (only one currently in my collection that was bought new was the Well R9), and my upgraded TM and the CA proline were effectively bought for the same price of around $140, where they both shoot about the same velocity, so I can't say which is necessarily better value.

     

    Strange, i've only heard otherwise from others and a very nice poster on zeroin gave me an in-depth analysis in which he claimed CA's externals were by far nicer

    Obviously there is a fair degree of opinion but i think it should be quite apparent

     

    In terms of internals uh...why is your TM shooting the same as the CA? A stock TM's fps is around 280, and mine chrono'd in at 284 +- 8. That seems to introduce a fair bit of bias, especially considering that the CA is $50 cheaper than the TM.

    For the gears, although i don't have the proline, i know it uses the same gears CA has been using recently and they are definitively better than TM, that's not a question. CA makes some of the best stock gears. Again, it seems you have an upgraded TM.

    Aside from that, CA's is a 7mm gearbox, and internals in general are just better. EG1000 is less whiny, but the CA has more torque and rof. I'll see for myself whether the CA is louder or not, as i've had two TM's and i can tell the eg1000 sound quite easily

     

    The biggest problem with the CA is the crappy hop up unit they have in each. But given the price disparity you can easily fix that and have money to spare

     

     

    I don't know, seems i might be expecting a lot from the CA, but that's what i've gathered from handling newer CA guns and info from others. The CA is supposed to outperform the TM on almost all levels with the exception of the air nozzle and hop up, and the motor's should perform similarly.

     

     

    Edit: In regards to the Proline RDS sucking...honestly, the red dot on P90's suck in general because you can't adjust for windage; unless the gun is set dead on from the factory (which its not) then it doesn't really matter.

    Thats why i get the TR anyways, silencer and longer inner barrel too :D

  7. I've got a Classic Army P90TR coming in, will be putting up an in-depth review, if anyone cares

     

    At the very least, the externals should kick TM's *albatross* to hell. (I used to own one) This, in my opinion, is justification enough; shame that such a nice gun has a pitiful build like TM's.

  8. But its $80 T_T

    Someone must have pics!

     

     

    Edit: An elcan SpectreDR might also look hawt ^^

    But thats even more expensive. Its a shame that the 1/4x ACM version is going to cost $400...$150 for 4x only is already pushing it imo

  9. I know this sounds strange, but does anyone have a Elcan they could possibly mount to their P90 and take a pic of it?

     

    I love elcan's. And i love P90's. Not sure whether i should get an Elcan -.-

  10. Thats bull. As someone who has handled both i can say that the TM is marginally better, no more accurate, and with a minimally more effective range because TM's hop up is slightly better, although CYMA did a near perfect job cloning it

     

    The only real difference is the externals. I highly doubt you have any first hand experience as i have never met anyone who has used both the TM and the CM who has claimed otherwise - everyone agrees that they are near identical - so don't tell people to waste money. The only chance that this is not true is if the CYMA is a dud, because of worse QC. Otherwise there is absolutely no reason to go TM if you don't have the money to blow

     

    If you really care about externals anyways you'll end up getting a SD slide so the marui trades and the like are a waste to spend upon
