akio Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 That's a good pic but i might just go KJW. I really want an EXACT copy. Plus this is more for show than Skirmishing Thanks Tho. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, if you want an exact copy, you definitely don't want this. My HFC showed up from airsplat yesterday and it's a really nice shooter, but the slide has this silly "Please read instructions" engraved into it. Good heft and i like the snappy metallic "clank-clank" of the recoil. The fit and finish are tight. No rattles. I was expecting the full auto to have a higher rate of fire, but maybe I'm just used to bb hoses like my M11 and MP5k. At $150 with an extra mag, cheapo laser site, and shipping, I think its a pretty good deal. I'd like to get a silencer and threaded barrel. GB-Tech looks like it makes a couple to fit the Marui M9. Will these fit the HFC? AS makes one with internal threading so the silencer screws into the barrel, but I can't seem to find anyone that carries it. Any recommendations?

Ghost_Rider Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 The HFC is a TM clone, so I'd say it's likely that the parts would fit, yes. Link to post Share on other sites
Hissing_Sid Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 One top tip: The paint finish on the HFC M190 is very "soft". It doesn't scratch easily or chip off BUT if you ever decide to polish it then it will buff up very, very shiny. I found that HFC screwed up with the way they fit the outer barrel and it was very hard to remove from the slide. The paint on the barrel got scratched (not right through, but took the finish off it) and I figured I'd buff it up to restore the paint. As I say, it ended up VERY shiny. Don't buff the gun unless you're sure you want a very shiny gun. Link to post Share on other sites
expvideo Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Do you have something to rate it's Darkness against? I want one but I really wanna make this with a KJW M92FS Elite IA <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Haha! (points and laughs) You're embarking on the same project as me! (looks at feet in shame) So here's what you'll have to do, if (like me) you want to use KJW... Buy the following: 1) M9 Elite IA (metal) - apx $125.00 2) M9 (metal) - apx. $125.00 3) Hogue Grip - apx. $20.00 OK, now you have your materials. I know it's expencive, but it ends up with a bonus at the end. (If you're thinking "can't I just get the elite but not the IA version?" No. You can, but it probably won't be black, probably gray) So take the slide off of your Elite IA, and put it on the M9 and so on. Put the hogue grips on the new bastardization. And Viola! Now not only do you have your show piece, you ALSO (bonus) have a functional piece with a rail for the field. BTW, since I have to say it... video games will ruin your life... Get a REAL life.

Kingcodez Posted August 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 What the KJW is Grey? Hey my first topic to get more than 20 posts #130 Link to post Share on other sites
expvideo Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 depends on the model... The Elite is (unless you can find the rare version). The Elite IA is black (and includes silver barrel), so is the standard M9 (black barrel)... Puting them together is within the budget you quoted. Aaron Link to post Share on other sites
Kingcodez Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (If you're thinking "can't I just get the elite but not the IA version?" No. You can, but it probably won't be black, probably gray) Uhh I was planning on getting the Elite IA Version What I'll probably do is buy a good Metal Slide for it. Then maby stick a Threaded Silver Barrel on it. Link to post Share on other sites
danfm Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 ive got the kjw elite IA fmv. Its railed and black with silver barrel. Gorgeous gun imo. I have also ordered that hogue grip Picking up the G&G laser sight today. Will post pics when its all done Link to post Share on other sites
Teap0t Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 how does this full auto gbb rate with the kwa g18c? Link to post Share on other sites
akio Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 The HFC is a TM clone, so I'd say it's likely that the parts would fit, yes. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Cool. So you think the Tokyo Marui M92F Long Magazine (32rds) at Redwolf would fit the HFC? Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 It will. Link to post Share on other sites
Soloman Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I handled one of these in a2 last week, very nice. Link to post Share on other sites
Beta Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I saw one at the local shop the other day, it's a solid gun, and with the lower rail, compatability, and price tag I'd say it's a great buy. If only I didn't already have an M92... Link to post Share on other sites
Teap0t Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 is this better than the kwa g18c? Link to post Share on other sites
elrey Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 If I had a kwa g18c, I would tell you. Would you like to buy me one? I'll say this, the full auto is pretty impressive, and sounds awesome too (at least to a newbie like me. ) Link to post Share on other sites
