The Church of Daytona Gun

What other kits give recoil to AEGs, specifically M249s? Daytona kits seem to be incredibly rare and expensive now, so finding one may just be too hard.

 
All unavailable. Do they also ship to the UK? Or are they Canada/Continental US only?

 
They will ship to the UK, but it costs a lot ($70 I believe).

DG kits are rare - best thing to do is sign up to the mailing list and then sacrifice your first born in the hopes that you can whip out your credit card in the 30 seconds it takes for a new production run to sell out. There are a lot of people waiting on them.

I emailed them about the M249 kit the other day and they said:

"Hi Tom,


We are hoping to expect our next batch of kits by mid to late August. Feel free to sign up for the email notification on the product page. This way you will be notified via email as soon as the kits are back in stock.

Regards"

You better be snappy because I'm sure there's lots of people waiting for these to become available :)

Thanks guys!!

 
Exactly the same as the BTC spectre for marui's.

I got one of them last time so fingers crossed I'm as quick to whip the ol CC card out when these become available again lol.

 
15 of them? I give it 48 hours :)

 
Very tempting. :S Wonder if it's worth it instead of solenoid hpa. I guess these have VAT to pay?

I mean if you're having to wait until the end of the month to spend money on BB gats then maybe you should ease off the BB gat spending a little anyway :P They'll still be here (after a new batch comes in!).

In my opinion: Yes, but then I've always cared more about recoil so I dunno. Solenoid HPA is more approachable so I'd stick to that for now if you're not sure.

Silly question here. Are Daytona guns as fun to use in semi/DMR roles as in semi/automatic roles?

Tbh, I just like unusual stuff, its just a shame that often things are unusual because they are expensive.

EDIT: Watched this vid and went back to my original ideas. youtube.com/watch?v=zNrWwjRjPwQ

No idea - mine doesn't do semi. According to the groups: Yes.

If you put the time into a DG you get better results than a Tippmann, but it really does need a lot of patience to get right and the information is not always easy to get. If you're unsure then just don't do it.

 
Well done, hit nr1 for "daytona gun uk" on google. :P

I bounced around a lot in the last 24 hours about whether to buy one. Though I have a compressor as a pro, i've settled on not getting one simply because airsoft is already a lot of effort (to get to games).

Like I say: If you're not sure then don't bother. They need a lot of attention so I think you've made the right choice.

Should only be 12 available now. Iv just ordered one :P so here goes my next big investment into airsoft :/

 
Around £425 with shipping, let's hope we don't get hit for duty at customs. And that's before I get into tanks, lines, regulators etc :o
