ultimentra Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 This is a thread to store info about the upcoming G&G G2000 starting with photos: Shot Show: (RiotSC from Airsoft Mechanics) (GnGArmament) (RadRockin) Non Shot Show Pictures: Videos: ASGI Sneak Preview- Information: (USCM corps) "Went to ShotShow this year with three of my airsoft teammates. Held the RS F2000, also held the G&G F2000. Here's my impression: the RS F2000 feels like a toy. Seriously. If I was LE or in the military I'd hold it and be like: "you've gotta be kidding me, you want me to shoot this rickety POS toy gun?" I was expecting the RS F2000 to feel solid more like a AUG, P90, or G36. Instead I walked away very disappointed and disillusioned. It set the bar very low for me. Later that day I headed over to the G&G booth. The crazy thing is, the G&G FS2000 was what I expected from the RS F2000. The G&G version was solid, well balanced and didn't feel like a toy. It felt AWESOME. I asked about the release period and the rep said February for the F2000, and March for the 2x optic. We also asked about the gear box thinking that it was the G&G M14 Gearbox, and he said that it was a new design. He didn't have any other information beyond that other than to show us that the gun broke down like the real thing. I also noticed that the rubberized butt pad was much nicer than the real one too. And if my memory is correct, it had correct trademarks. Basically: the G&G FS2000 was fantastic. Felt better than the real thing. So long as the internals are good you won't be disappointed." **If you have any more info, pictures, or videos please feel free to post it in this thread** Link to post Share on other sites
Mike_West Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Am I guessing right that there's a rail under the foregrip? If so, those guys think of everything, especially of those VFC EGLM Deluxe sets. Link to post Share on other sites
Stealthbomber Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Why on earth would anybody assume that the F2000 has an M14 gearbox in it???? The long skinny design of the M14 gearbox is about the worst possible thing to fit into a bullpup. Their L85 gearbox would fit straight in. Course, they'd have to be nuts to actually use it. Maybe with a super-thick cylinder head so it can use a normal piston and a decent trigger it'd be okay. Link to post Share on other sites

Dsquall Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Did anyone confirm or deny if this uses TM compatible M16 mags? I thought I read it uses proprietary mags, or maybe that was a different gun... Link to post Share on other sites

FireKnife Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 This has actually made me jizz. It looks freaking awesome and with the only other option being the so-so JLS i might get one of these. Lets hope it isn't going to be as fail as some G&G products.

'FireKnife' Would this be your first non-pistol? I think this gun will change a lot of peoples views who have negative opinions on G&G. I'm also thinking some V6 hybrid gearbox. Or maybe just a regular V6 gearbox, because G&G has never made a V6 gearbox, which is a new design to them. Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Nope, i have also had over 25 AEG's too. But this would be ideal for me. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
The General Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 First gun I ever wanted was the F2000. Its just a great design. I seriously hope they do not mess this one up and end up releasing a flawed product. The JLS F2000 put me right off the F2000. If G&G can do a good job with this, I can see myself selling some guns to raise the funds for this one. Link to post Share on other sites
Stealthbomber Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 And what about a some-how adapted/modified cylinder set V6 GB? Yeah. TBH, I was thinking of buying one of those chinese P90 gearboxes to play around with and see if I can get it to work in my JLS F2000, just to get the 2-stage trigger working correctly. Only thing is, the gearbox won't easily fit over the top of a STANAG mag cos the nozzle won't reach the hop-up. Fortunately, since TM invented their blowback AEGs c/w seriously long nozzles it's likely that one could be used with a V6 gearbox in a STANAG bullpup. I just figured the G&G L85 gearbox would be the simple choice for another bullpup. It's keep the cost of tooling up for a new project down a bit. Even as things are, It'd be nice if G&G had the sense to build a new gearbox that still makes use of the L85 upper gearbox and motor cage. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Sorry if I'm straying from the original topic, but: Is the G&G L85 Gearbox that bad? Never seen one in person, but everyone seems to talk so bad about it. Is it a problem of design or just poorly made components? Link to post Share on other sites

Never seen one in person, but everyone seems to talk so bad about it. Is it a problem of design or just poorly made components? Terrible, something to do with the piston and gears setup i think but all i know is it is the only L85 model i have seen strip itself. But saying that the new SG550 looks good and this could be another winner, hopefully. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Jon L Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Im sure some guy whipped out a ver3 gearbox and stuffed in straight into the jls f200 no problems, but cant find his thread. Link to post Share on other sites
Warning Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 right here http://www.airsoftretreat.com/forums/index...61455.msg524776 it was on airsoft retreat i remembered reading about it its near the bottom of the page Link to post Share on other sites
Jon L Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I think that is the one. My mistake about just dumping the gearbox in though. I suppose you could always try and recreate this, but with the G&G coming out soon, there would be no point really, less of course the G&G fails big time, but I highly doubt that. I am eagerly awaiting the release and first reviews like the rest of you. Link to post Share on other sites
beretta Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 The G&G F2000 is now on the distributor list as available. Shouldn't be very long now before they start hitting the shelves. Link to post Share on other sites
Reppyboyo Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Typically I just bought a 97b as I got bored of waiting for the F2000. Oh well, time to sell some stuff to fund for one. Link to post Share on other sites

ultimentra Posted February 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 I thought HK shops would have had them by now and they usually get new releases first, however I am planning on waiting until they come to US stores unless ehobbyasia has a really good coupon or something.
