So I sold up all my airsoft gear a few years ago now (which I regret) because people I went with at the time gave up due to work commitments and the spiralling cost then I found going alone just wasn't as fun so threw in the towel. A friend recently got in touch with me and said he and a few of his pals go and that I should come along, for the first few games I begged and borrowed to get my ukara but I'm nearly there now so want to think about getting a rif again. Previously I dabbled in all roles with an aeg dmr and bolt action but nowadays I guess I have a little more disposable income until the missus finds out. Budget all in for first rif is around the £450-500 mark, I'm happy to go pre owned and I also don't mind upgrading the gun. my only real experience taking the gun apart was on a vfc hk416 and my well l96 bolty.
As much enjoyment as my previous guns gave me I'm kind of swaying towards something a little different this time around in that I'd like an AUG or a vector something a little less seen than the m4 platform. My fear is that I've not seen too many, if any good things said about any of the AUG's on the market and having never opened one up I'm not entirely sure what id be able to change on the stock rif, the vector on the other hand seems to do well out of the box but also comes with its short falls.
Am I making a bad decision with going with one of these two platforms as my only rif (for now)? should i stick to the ole faithful tried and tested m4 type or is there possibly another viable option? I will mostly be in open woodland with possibly a little cqb in between however I can borrow a more cqb focused rif if need be
Thanks in advance
