Krazy L Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 Well this is rubbish! I now need to purchase a CA249,G&G ump, G&G M14, Tanaka Kar98. I am so broke it isn't funny. Link to post Share on other sites

Magsz Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 Im really excited about this release, although i really hope the price is affordable. Â Id love to see more people filling the SAW gunner's role with authentic weapons. M16's with beta C mags make me want to puke. Link to post Share on other sites
enzo100 Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 Heh you and me both. As mentioned it's nice seeing the gun that I have been following in a farther stage. I havent been in contact with CA as much but they say it will be here within two or so months. Link to post Share on other sites

the_oicw_concept Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 everyones talking rrp, nobody really cares about price, if its £200, i want one, if its £2000, i still want one, what i really wanna know is WHEN WHEN WHEN can i get my grubby mitts on it, im guessing nobody has even a ruff estimate of a release date yet? please forgive me if someone already mentioned a date but im a bit tired and may have missed it Link to post Share on other sites
Shard Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 Definitely looks the business, but if i were to be able to afford such a beast (Unlikely,as i doubt it will be in my price range!) i think i will definitely be waiting for peformance / build info and lots of user reviews before splashing out. Â Its not that i dont trust CA (I own an M15 and so far have had no issues, its a superb gun) i just think V1's are probably something best steered clear of, as we all know CA dont usually bring out the best goods of their capability in the first run . Then again who knows, they may have really tried this time to get something right, and might suprise us.... Link to post Share on other sites
the_oicw_concept Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 what you mean is they didnt, they are getting to grips with what works now, from what i gather the CA33 is superb, especially for a V1. not tryed it myself but its next gun on my list, i know its gonna be a *beep* hot gun, just hope its build quality is near to my brothers CA15A4 Link to post Share on other sites
Longhairedhippy Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 all I can say is that I hope it won't be so cheap that it becomes the subject of what am best gun threads next to the TM m4 and CA m15. Link to post Share on other sites
Magsz Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 The CA33's are great. Â They have basically one problem. On some of the guns the selector switch has been known to be kind of mushy. Link to post Share on other sites
Shard Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 what you mean is they didnt, they are getting to grips with what works now, <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â No, i meant exactly what i said. Yes ok, so they were doing alright with the M15, and then the CA33 , but i think the CA36C kinda disproves that comment of them knowing what they are doing now Link to post Share on other sites
Punkman oi Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 Cool, just wish it was cheaper <{POST_SNAPBACK}> kid, you have 1000$ worth of guns alone and youre telling us you wish an m249 was less than 600$?!?! thats low Link to post Share on other sites

The Quarter-master Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Wanted to fill the LMG gunner post for a while..........its a whole new world from snipeing. Â if they are going for only $600 that aint much really is it? Â this is my ticket to getting an MG nice! Â this is something to add to my list, its like a bottomless pit......only in list form.

umbra Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 TBPH its not the price of the gun that worries me, more the price of all the ammo I'd use up Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Just thought I'd interject here. Â $600 USD is very cheap for a FULL-STEEL M249. Â Even with Hong Kong Street prices, that's cheaper than the TOP minimi.

richie_j Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 i reckon there'll be a catch some where..."here have a m249 for peanuts." "cool how much are the mags" "3000USD each" Link to post Share on other sites

"cool how much are the mags" "3000USD each" <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â Well, I can sort of relate... Â endoshoji (closest, perhaps reliable Japanese retailer I can find) says that the ANGS soft-box magazines are almost $300 each - RIP OFF!!!! Â Anyways... Â OMG WHEN SI THSI COMMING OUT!?!?!

destrukto Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 Phoenix.. there are just some people out there who simply don't know how to shoot, the purpose of the sights eludes them Link to post Share on other sites
Catchv22 Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 I've heard of a guy who carries tools and extras in a real steel M249 type box man. Just because you buy one doesn't mean you have to use it for ammo. Â Plus, some people like to reload in combat. Nothing like an adrenaline rush of ducking behind cover and reloading your weapons when under fire. Link to post Share on other sites
richie_j Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 always good to have spares. also, bb's dont tend to be useful for anything else then hurtling towards something. why do you thing they made hi-caps? Link to post Share on other sites
Phoenix Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 yea, but why in the world does anyone need a 3000 round box mag for a 30 min game. I could see you needign several if it were a real milsim game, and you'd be humping it all day, but we dont usually at my field. Which kinda sucks. Link to post Share on other sites
