They're heavy and cumbersome, well my L86 is anyway.
B.S
Well, Yeah, It's a L86 XD The weight's all in the barrel.
Mack
you know the L129A1 is 7.62 right?
B.S
Hmmm... Nice Idea, But I think I'll go with the G&G, It'll probably last longer and be easier to modify.
And Mack, You mean irl? I've sorta gone Military Vehicles>WWII>Airsoft In My interests, so I'm a little out of the loop when it comes to real Guns. I assume you mean an M4 Isn't the same caliber as the L129A1? I know, But I just thought I'd make it look a little like one since it's the gun I want for a starter, and they look a little similar.

An SR25 would probably be as close as you could get
B.S
Yeah, I've been sent that before, I'm not trying to get something close as possible, just so my M4 is more British 
Thanks
Thanks
AirsoftTed
then surely you should make it an l119a1 and just get a standard cm16 as a base
Mack
L119A1 then

Yeh, I think he must mean L119A1 - never gunna get that receiver looking like an L129.
B.S
Nah, I didn't. I don't like the L119A1, It doesn't look as good. And I know I never will - Like I said it's not supposed to be a replica, just a likeness.
proffrink
Er, it won't be anything like it though - the magwell and receiver is the most distinctive difference between an AR-10 and an AR-15. The rest is basically identical. You should really rethink this before you get disappointed hard.

If you're trying to replicate something that looks nothing like it, then it isn't a good replica. Turn it into a L119A1 or just leave it as it is, lol.

B.S
mmm... I'll have to think about it, I'm not sure what else I could do with a R8L... It seems like it's a good idea, and Like I said I don't want it to be identical, I know the Receiver is completely different, Are there any other major differences?
proffrink
Keep it as an M4. At this point having British kit is about as unique as having a generic AR anyway. Anyhoo, you're just starting out and have a thousand better things to spend your money on than externals.

Rail, Outter barrel, buffertube
B.S
Yeah, I have gone a little crazy on the Kit front XD I just need to slow down. But I'm me. So That's impossible 
But I will Just get the R8L and go with it, I might still get the stuff I was looking at for the L129, because I like how it would look anyway. Just not all the bells and whistles, only things like mags, and maybe a grip. For now I think I'll just get my last few bits of MTP kit then Get into playing the game more. Planning stuff too much is probably my biggest weakne...
