slu Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 I've tried the build your own route with an AEG, and didn't turn out as great as I had hoped. GBBs are simpler, sure, but I wouldn't do it again. Link to post Share on other sites

hayabusa46 Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 I'd love to see an all-GBB summer skirmish. Nice dreams, but if there where 10 ppl with GBB,there will be for sure 30 with hi-caps Link to post Share on other sites
Stealthbomber Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Nice dreams, but if there where 10 ppl with GBB,there will be for sure 30 with hi-caps So you put 5 people with GBBs in a team with 15 of the hicap users. Geez folks, you're making this harder than it is. Link to post Share on other sites
MCXL Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 " A source that has been to the factory says 100rd mags. " I seriously doubt it. The mag is a WA clone, with a different spring you could fit a max of 70 rounds and have them all feed. maybe, you would never have a reliable bolt stop going that way though. Maybe they did away with that mechanism and just made the spring weak as *fruitcage*? Well I don't believe it, I'm betting on 50-55 rounders as it is a WA mag clone. Stealth Building the lower mech in the WA is easy, I struggled with some parts and built my own trigger group in like 20 minutes. And I've never been able to work on an AEG without it not working afterward. It should also be pointed out that I never have built a real one either, its just so simple in design, (Ar15 trigger assembly, which this gun parodies) that it jsut comes together. The auto cutoff lever was the hardest part, and that was just a matter of not enough thumbs to do it. Why, WHY DON'T HUMANS HAVE FOUR HANDS!!??!?? GBB = Simple build, but more upkeep. EDIT: It should also be pointed out that I made the mistake of popping all the pins without looking at the placement of anything first. I knew what to do tough, I stayed calm, and I just opened up THE LOWER BUILD GUIDE ON GASGUNS.INFO and gave it my best shot. I had issues with the firing block fitting, but that was Inokatsu's fault, not mine. Yes, major props are in order for gasguns, where real mean use REAL AIRSOFT GUNS.

KWP Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 IMO, the entire filthy China clone industry should be shut down immediately or better yesterday. But a dirt cheapo GBB rifle could have that one good effect of getting lots more of people into the GBB world. If you've ever been to a GBB rifles only game, you know what I mean. Because one so important thing that was missed out completely from the Airsoft industry is sound. Realistic, loud and violent sound. It makes up for a completely different, more realistic, more thrilling and thus better experience. GBB rifles don't sound like real guns, but they at least don't sound like angry sewing machines. I would also welcome more use of non-pyrotech explosive devices and anything that contributes to a more realistic sound environment. Link to post Share on other sites
MCXL Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 I have heard some GBB's that sound like a gun shooting suppressed subsonic loads (that still manage too cycle) but yea, GBB guns sound so much better. Link to post Share on other sites

gerrysnaps Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Bloody hell, that's almost seems too cheap. Mind you, the one pictured on Gunner isn't the RIS/RAS version. The one on EBB might be more expensive for that. Link to post Share on other sites
gerrysnaps Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 From the GunnerAirsoft product page: Chinese Made Gas Blowback M4A1, Heavy blowback force!! Feels just like shooting a real thing. No AEG can provide this feeling!! Spec: METAL BODY~!! Metal bolt carrier, plastic bolt head copy of WA Muzzle Velocity: 440 FPS ( 0.2g BB / top gas ) Sounds all good, 440 FPS on top gas ain't change. Can anyone speak towards the other specs? Is "plastic bolt head" a good or bad thing? Link to post Share on other sites
MCXL Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 My lord that is cheap! Plastic nozzle is commonplace and not necessarily bad. Link to post Share on other sites

renegadecow Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 "Feels just like shooting a real thing." To someone who hasn't shot the real thing, maybe. That price just went below unbelievable and entered the realm of doubt and cynicism. Since its just stated that the bolt carrier is made of metal, I take it its cast.

happy.al Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Wow, at that price I'll be interested and just use it as a plinker. Can't be much worse that the WA so I wouldn't be too worried about it being chinesse made. Link to post Share on other sites
MDK_Marshal Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Was that ever in stock on gunner? Or is that just there as a placeholder? I'm also quite pleased that gunner has it and has posted some solid facts about it; the 440 fps shows us that he's tested it and it works, at lest enough to chrono it. For $123, that's on hell of a start for a GBB M4! I'm getting one of these the second it comes into stock! Link to post Share on other sites
snorkelman Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 was listed as in stock and buyable this morning I expect its just been a small qty to test the waters and sold out quickly Link to post Share on other sites
