Hey all, Im in the market for a new gun and with all of this quarantine going on I am very bored so here I am lol.......

So I am in the usa and here are my parameters 

- Must be reliable as I don't want to have to send it off every 6 months or so.

- Must have good externals (TM SCAR LOOKING AT YOU)

- Must have ambi controls or be somewhat ambi friendly as I am a lefty

- My budget is 1500 USD or 1200 GBP

Tell me what I should get ! I love to play indoors and outdoors so something that is versatile is necessary as well! Don't need variable fps though as 350 is fine for outside (400 limit outdoors) 

Thanks in advance ;)

We might not be the best forum to ask that particular question on, some stuff may be harder to get over in americaland than it is here, and vice versa. 

Though personally if I had 1200 quid to spunk on guns I'd buy an a brace of western style revolvers and shotguns. 

 
You said you like the externals of the TM SCAR, so why not just get one of those? I have one, it's lovely. However if I were to do it again, I wouldn't go crazy like I did on it. I would do the basics to get it shooting in the range you stated and leave everything else alone until it breaks. A lot of people (myself included) have changed the gears etc "just in case" which if you think about it, is nuts.

Long and the short of it, with any airsoft gun get the one with the externals you are most keen on. Anything else is easily changed.

Cr0,

I love scars I really do. However in New York I felt up a TM scar and let me tell you it Was atrocious. Was creaky like crazy. As soon as I shouldered the weapon it creaked. Don't think I could do that honestly.. Maybe I will just go for a TM 416. 

 
If you are going tm recoil and ambi 416/7 will fit the bill. On us fields it may be under power by us standard. But if you want that type of money you can get one upgraded to your spec. Just a case of picking which model you like. 416c is my personal choice as I like compact. 

 
417 would be godly but I play cqb as well as outdoor and I just don't think a 417 would be good in that type of game...

I would get it upgraded by Sam @ KoA to 345 fps... perfect for indoor and outdoors. 

 
Krytac Vector, a few mags, maybe a drum.

Save the rest of your cash

Build quality on Evo is solid, shoots as well as Tm, no rattle sorry simulated recoil.

evotek means I have trigger response for cqb, and a flat hop for range outside.

compact for everywhere indoor or out,  but you can buy three lengths so take your pick

the best quick change Spring system on the market

ambi safety

ambi mag release

i own a tricked out Tm 416 and I have to admit that the Evotek nudges it on performance but that's only on compactness.

in every other way there is nothing in it

 
There aren't really any techs I trust honestly with NGRS in the USA..... I would send it to sam and get it upgraded to the max so I don't have to send it back for years. 

 
As a fellow US player, there are several places you can send it here. Dan Bloomquist does them I think, Airsoft Barracks in FL is also good. Ive got a NGRS 416 and it lasted me a good three years. Something finally stripped in it two weeks or so ago, just havent had the time or patience to open it up and look. Not that Ill be going to any games anytime soon...

 
Maybe I will get a PTW in all honesty. Seems like a good fit, just a bit expensive.

Nah. Those are marketed for training use, but being in the firearms training industry no one uses them. Thats the only reason they are priced that high is that the occasional LE group will buy a bunch for training.

 
I heard of a guy tackleberry who makes them to perfection and reliable etc.
