the m14 ebr is a modern varient of it the modern varient has only about 10 ft extra rangebut ups the price by at least £50 due to the rail systems and tactical stock and m21 is a electrical sniper rifle and is just practicaly a m14 ebr with a scope on it.
This is the most rubbish I've ever heard, no offence. A body kit can't increase range, and M21's are M14's converted to DMR spec by experienced gunsmiths. The difference between the two in airsoft is little at best, although you could argue an airsoft M21 is an upgraded M14. But I digress, you're talking rubbish.
AVOID KART AT ALL COSTS!!
This is possibly the most important advice on this thread
Okay thanks for the replies, some good ones in there!
So basically im looking at either the TM M14, the Cyma M14, the WE M14 GBB.
Apart from the super cool factor, anyone know of any advantages or disadvantages, performance wise, why i shouldnt get the GBB?
Any other opinions on the Cyma? I get the impression they are well made clones. This being the case, i wonder if the g+g or the g+p kit would fit.
And.. why shouldnt i get Kart Cam?
The main disadvantage of a WE M14 would probably be cooldown and consistency. Yes, the WE open bolt system is supposed to be fairly consistent but it's never going to be a match for a tuned AEG. Apart from that, your biggest disadvantage is you'll be too awesome to even skirmish anymore.
TM, CYMA and WE are good choices for M14's, the TM being the best out of the three skirmishability-wise and the CYMA being the best TM clone out there.
The TM takes an entire v7 gearbox, while the CYMA takes a v7 sector gear and v2 bevel and spur gears. So it's not 100% a TM clone but this makes parts slightly easier to source. The CYMA is made of pot metal, but for the money you pay it's a good choice especially for those on a budget. The TM is definitely not kind to the wallet, neither is the WE.
Avoid the Kart because it's not a 100% TM clone either but the machining tolerances are so bad getting parts for it is extremely hit or miss and the EBR isn't even worth looking at. The build quality is so shoddy you'll have to modify the entire thing by hand to get rid of the structural weaknesses of it. Even then... I don't think it's worth the effort, because you'll have to replace the gearbox too. Well I suppose if you love challenges you might consider it, but if you have the money for a better M14 I'd suggest going with a different one.
I would actually recommend the G&G if you're going for an EBR. It's the most structurally sound EBR on the market (Not including the WE, I know very little about the WE EBR in comparison to the G&G. I can't say if one is better than the other yet) and the gearbox is actually much more solid than the TM. The TM doesn't have as strong a gearbox as the G&G. Don't think the CA is just as good though, it's not. I dislike their rendition because it's probably on the same level as the CYMA but you pay a lot more for it.
I hope this clears some things up, if anyone needs anymore help regarding M14s then let me know. I know a thing or two
