DFM56 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I was super excited until I found out that I can't use the pile of AK mags I have now, and that they took the worst part of a v2 and defiled the v3 with it. But, whatever, the $500 I had marked for the ACR will probably go to the RS m4. Can't wait to see more of it, especially what they're doing with the hop-up. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm interested to see how it stacks up with my Inokatsu. Price wise it will probably be cheaper and quality will probably be at least the same, if not better. If the WE M14 turns out badly or if third party companies don't start supporting it, my $500 will probably be going to RS too. (No joke, I also have $500 that I was saving for the ACR. ) -OGGY Link to post Share on other sites

RedScare Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 for those of you with real AR's. have you tried shooting with a clone eotech and if so how did they fair (hold zero, fully adjustable, ect)? Link to post Share on other sites
Whan Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) There's going to be a Real Sword M4??? Excited to see how the externals turn out. Still am interested in the PTS ACR, although the quote of $450 for the basic sort of turned me off.... I was hoping more along the lines of $380 Edited January 28, 2010 by Whan Link to post Share on other sites
lambolurker Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) for those of you with real AR's. have you tried shooting with a clone eotech and if so how did they fair (hold zero, fully adjustable, ect)? I have done it out of curiosity. On semi, it stayed zeroed for half a clip and on auto it it was f$cked up. I hope you are not thinking of using one for your RS.

GRIM! Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 My first paintjob, not sure ill keep it, only had bad colors left and bad caps, might clean it off to vanilla black witha few dusty corners left again or do a new one with better cans. Link to post Share on other sites

reaper16 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 VFC ar's will probably still be better. Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlesticks4220 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Yeah, If they beat out VFC, I would be surprised... Seeming as VFC AR's are as nice as a lot of real AR's/ Link to post Share on other sites

Vercingetorix Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Well TBH, the finish on my VFC is up to par with a friends Bushy AR, if not better in some places. Link to post Share on other sites
bbondaloose Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Bah, Bushmaster. Not getting into real steel but Bushmaster AR's are a bit... lacking then some Airsoft guns I've handled. Link to post Share on other sites
Victory Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I have done it out of curiosity. On semi, it stayed zeroed for half a clip and on auto it it was f$cked up. I hope you are not thinking of using one for your RS. As it has been said, though, the clone EOTechs don't hold up to recoil as well as the clone Aimpoints do. I would check out the Primary Arms line of clone Aimpoints. They're pretty good (and usable on R/S) from what I've read. -Vic Link to post Share on other sites
Vercingetorix Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Bah, Bushmaster. Not getting into real steel but Bushmaster AR's are a bit... lacking then some Airsoft guns I've handled. So I've heard, but I have limited RS experience living in the PRNJ, so I cannot compare my VFC to much. And last I checked, Bushy does count as RS, so the statement of VFC having nicer finish than a RS AR does hold true in a sense. The main point is that VFC has the highest external quality I've ever seen from any AEG manufacturer, and I doubt they will ever be surpassed in their lovely finishing quality.

slu Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Well TBH, the finish on my VFC is up to par with a friends Bushy AR, if not better in some places. OK, but I find that hard to believe. Bushy LE rifles are made of 7075 aluminum and type 3 hard anodized. Maybe the VFC is anodized, but most definitely not type 3 and they are most definitely not made of 7000-series aluminum. Link to post Share on other sites
Vercingetorix Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Um, the bushy my friends got is one of the lower end ones, considering it was like $800. I certainly wouldn't say it is "LE grade" or anything fancy, just the basic entry level AR All I can say is that looking at his Bushy, and comparing it to my VFC in person, the VFC looked much more smooth and even and more pretty. Again, I am not a RS book of knowledge, and I have only one experience to go on, and that too, a limited one, but I;d say VFC finish it pretty far up there in terms of airsoft quality.

hwagan Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Right, this started life as nothing more than an idea - It's built from nothing using an awful lot of expensive parts. I decided, as much as i like my vaguely realistic looking AR's, that i'd always been building and buying guns that look like something i'd already seen. So, i decided i'd have one built that i'd designed from the ground up, with all thoughts of realism out the window. The whole point of this build was to look as badass as i could possibly make it - Kind of anti-milsim I call it the HBRA1 - Hwagan's Badass Rifle, A1. Phone camera pics, unfortunately... It's made from: G&P 8mm bearing gearbox, gears and the rest. Madbull M100 spring, shooting at around 330. Tokyo Marui EG700 Guarder 300mm TBB G&P 'Navy Seal' MBK with Ambidextrous mag catch G&P One piece hop Madbull Blue bucking, guarder nub G&P Shorty Marine battery stock G&P 9.6v 3300Mah battery for the above Magpul MOE grip TM ergo VFG Unknown make Medieval flash-hider/face-ruiner/steak-tenderiser KA 10.5" silver outer barrel ICS 'Tsunami' RAS - amazing bit of kit for £60 KA Troy style BUIS Clone Eotech 552 I love it more than anything i've ever loved, frankly. I've never seen any kind of AR using the same combination of parts, and it really does stand out in a pile of realisticish M4's. Link to post Share on other sites
