It is a full metal gearbox it one of the Ics split gearboxes. If you had bought it 12 months ago it would have cost £290 the price has dropped because ICS are bringing out their new range. For £200 you wont get a better gun, it will be very reliable and accurate and is easy to maintain.

Dont just be tempted go for the ICS all of the CXP range of guns are good.Or you can become one of the G&G sheople its up to you.

If you know nothing about it then you shouldnt comment.

Haha just when I was laughing at the daft Americans falling for it. So glad it wasnt me for a change.
-
We really need a sarcasm emoticon for here lately.

Isnt a rep always going to say they are getting better?Reps and salesmen are just proffesional liars at the end of the day.

He sure is thats proffrink the trick shot sniper hes famous did you not know that.

Agree about the polymer being better but the metals is a totally different story. With my job you get to be able to spot bad metals an alloys as easy as most people would spot mouldy bread. Most Aeg's use pot metal receivers and external parts which if fair enough to keep the price down but the internals should use decent materials. G&G's internals set my spidey sense going in the same way as really bad chinese guns they are just not good enough. G&G need to forget about the gimmicks and just improve internal quality. I would rather have a gearbox that will fire fifty thousand rounds than a £3 mosfet. As for ebb its pathetic on any gun, PTS ERG and TM recoil work but ebb is a joke.

Couple of things At the cheap end £150ish G&G is definitely better than ICS which is why I linked a couple. Other than that though G&Gs are not very good. Dont know who says at the £250+ mark G&Gs are better but they are delusional. Yes they can come with mosfets and ecu's but they are all substandard ones, spend £10 to £35 and you will get better electronics. Ics new range is far superior in build quality and materials and their older stuff while not quite as good still has better motors, better gears, equally as good piston, cylinder and hop units. The only really bad thing on the Ics is the hop rubber isnt the best but for £5 you can get a TM or lonex bucking which is better than what comes in both makes of guns. I am saying this not as an airsofter but as someone who has over 20 years engineering experience. Yes I am not a big fan of G&Gs but that is because of the fanboyism that follows them. Good cheap first guns but after that there are so many brands that are better for same or less money. TM, Realsword, Krytac, Ics, even some classic army and G&P guns and probably and few more that I have never taken apart. I think G&G do good cheap guns so people buy the brand get some loyalty and carry on buying their brand as they start spending more.

Could call them; Airsoft ball bags. Can see the slogan now Come try our Airsoft ball bags they are so comfy and squishy,you will never sit on anything better.

Very reliable and shoots well. Will work for woodland and cqb, looks nice as well. Ticks every box and you wont get better for £200. Edit; Forgot to add the most important part which is its not a G&G combat machine.

Its based on the M4 same as SPR/CRB but very long. Looks like a good base gun.

I would say G&G ang JG are the probably the best entry level manufacturers. You can get ICS guns in the £150 to £200 but thats either the two tone m4 or older models that shops are selling at lower prices to get shot of. All the new ICS guns are generally £300+ and they dont seem to bringing out new entry level models. G&G support the lower end much better.As for not spending more than £200 thats personal choice, I didnt buy a cheap one to start and dont think I would if I was in that position again. I think most main models of aeg can be used for cqb or woodland.
-
You wont get a high quality gun for £200 thats a whole different ball game.The G&G you linked will be ok though for an entry level gun. Full metal gearbox is a must. If you stick to the big names then you will be ok. If you want a high quality gun double you budget and double it again for upgrades and accessories.

Could make bean bags for the safe zone.Recycling at its best could even do camo ones for the milsimers.

ImTriggerHappy replied to AirsoftgoesAli's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Love all the advice but no one knows the starting point. You wont get anything particularly good in that price range consider upgrading what you have. But before you do anything recommended answer a few questions. What gun? What is the fps? What range are you getting now? What range are you hoping to achieve? Have you changed anything from stock? What make and weight of bbs are you using? Do you know how to set your hop properly and how to check your bucking is all good? Answer all those and then maybe you can get the right advice. -

Sometimes the simplest answer is the best. -
Try here its the place I always use for hard to find bits. https://www.google.co.uk/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=5a_0VcD2M-Kq8weI37PoBg&gws_rd=ssl Hope this helps. ☺

Thats sounds more like it. You can still shoot any sniper rifle you like, just might need Snow white to carry it for you.

Was the 5ft11 a bit of a typo? because thats not what I would class as really small.

Maybe I have been lucky but in two years I have only once booked and been told it was full and the website was wrong. I have booked in the day before quite a few times, if there is a problem they will let you know anyway the same as when they confirm the booking.The torch is basically a necessity. Games are won or lost by getting or not getting the objectives nothing to do with peacocks unless the objective is in there. Basements can bottleneck sometimes but there is usually a way round and you can push through any choke point if you try. Dont camp on the concourse like some of the highcap heroes or on the balcony. There is opportunities to move around everywhere just explore. Main thing is have fun, play the objectives dont get trapped into pointless standoffs. And dont fall down the stairs it hurts.
