Habakure Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I like that notch. It looks dynamic but also worrying, a sex combination. Have any WE's blown up in a persons face (yet)? Don't think they have. Link to post Share on other sites
Inq Eisenhorn Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Jesus Eisenhorn I'm sorry you're in a bad mood today, not even going to take the bait. I'm not in a bad mood. I just think it strange someone trying to tell me I'm doing something "wrong" by buying something and expecting it to be fit for purpose?!?! If I bought a model kit and threw a wobbly because, on opening the box, rather than finding a nice complete shiny #whatever# I'm greeted with parts on a sprue....then your statement would make sense. Last time I looked WE were advertising their product as a working item, I haven't seen any notification on a WE box that suggests you need to modify the gun to get it to work, or even that the product is inherently flawed from the get go....

Habakure Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 But, tbh, this is working. Just won't lock back when the stock is collapsed. Kind of like, using semi on an AEG can sometimes cause it to not work, quick full auto burst, and then it's fine. Happened to me with most brands (G&P, TM and Cyma). Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I just think it strange someone trying to tell me I'm doing something "wrong" by buying something and expecting it to be fit for purpose? It was just my round about way of saying that GBBRs so often come requiring further work to get them to operate smoothly that I'm pretty jaded with small issues when I get them. Again, I'm very sorry Eisenhorn, deeply apologies. Link to post Share on other sites

Kind of like, using semi on an AEG can sometimes cause it to not work, quick full auto burst, and then it's fine. Happened to me with most brands (G&P, TM and Cyma). Working, but not properly and with no good reason why except half-assery and *albatross*-clownery. The AEG problem, by contrast, seems to be a general and pervasive issue among most manufacturers.

hitmanNo2 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 From what I gather, the real one has/had issues locking back with the stock fully retracted. Link to post Share on other sites

jayrod Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I went to WE because i tried all the other garbage VFC,TM,GHK,KWA,G&G, Iron Airsoft build, G&P.. all failed me but not WE the ones i have all work and have never failed. My Kriss even broke down and good luck getting the parts you need for a Kriss but that's a different story. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 From what I gather, the real one has/had issues locking back with the stock fully retracted. Is that a troll post or for realz? Funny if it is as per the RS 416C and people go bananas at WE Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Seriously. It was canned because it didn't satisfy HK's jamming standards but there are reports of the bolt stop failing to engage. It happens in one of the videos from somewhere like Shotshot too.

Stuey Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Lol, WE: ultimate in realism. i "like" WEs, as in Ive got like 10 of them, but i still think WE is ######, lol, the build quality of the vector is worlds away from the WE, its just inconceivable to me, like trading a maserati for a honda Also, that's a *suitcase* analogy, Hondas are well built and reliable.

Also, that's a *suitcase* analogy, Hondas are well built and reliable. that doesnt make it drive like a maserati, quality is about more than reliability or are you just saying that referencing Honda in relation to WE is an insult to Hondas Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The main question is, will this fire with the stock extended? It it does then great but it looks like it will fire even with the stock retracted. So, it works. Longevity is something we can't predict at this point. Though, there are reports of WE M4s (now) performing quite well. Just to show how every manufacturer has issues. Take G&P. I recently bought one of their M4's for a friend who is new to the sport, thinking mag comparability won't be an issue (got a fair few G&P M4 mags). But there is an issue. The mag well is a lot tighter than my two other G&P's. The supplied mag has to be forced in, so that the mag catch will engage. Plastic mags work fine (bit more force than normal to insert, but they always engage the mag catch). When I say forced in, I mean very differcult, to get the mag, to engage with the mag catch (oddly, a classic army metal hi-cap mag works fine but all of the G&P metal mags have to be forced in and don't always engage the mag catch). Has this put me off G&P? No. But I do like a challenge. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Maybe when that new GBBR you bought from WE blows up in your face and takes your eye out we'll just chalk it up to WE's profit margins.....noob. I appreciate your concern, really, but don't you think you're exaggerating just a little bit too much? You're sounding less rational and more... adadqgg. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I would put My WE guns against any other gbb out there and it will kick harder, shoot straighter and last longer! Is 'Jayrod' your porn star name or something, James? More prominent companies have erred in lack of testing like [...] the TM 5-7 and nobody ever so much as batted an eye. Yezwhat? I have literally never read a post about the TM 5-7 that didn't go into extensive detail about the inevitable eventual catastrophic failure of the gun's slide and BBU. Eyes were cricket batted over the TM 5-7. Have any WE's blown up in a persons face (yet)? Don't think they have. You rang? Yawn, apologise all you want for WE's lack of QC. Hey's its your money, spend it how you wish. Maybe when that new GBBR you bought from WE blows up in your face and takes your eye out we'll just chalk it up to WE's profit margins.....noob.

jkpics Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 WE pistols and WE rifles are not really on the same level, rifles from OB til now are good, older pistols are *suitcase*, newer are better, lots of companies started out making *suitcase* and got better, KJW, CA and G&G for starters. WE does not make perfect guns, but they are pushing out more different models now and for the last few years then anyother company I can think of, so can we PLEASE move on from the casual WE hatred, they make cool *suitcase*, some times there are problems with it and then you upgrade with RA-Tech parts and move on, that is about the same as every damn AEG ever.
