He isn't that far off with the pricing on that, mad as it sounds. It's a stamped steel mp40, de acts are welded up overpriced garbage now. People will pay that for them. *Though I agree, they're cack.

I have just grabbed one. £270 new, cyma 04xxxs aren't far behind that now.

Womder if he wants some specnas?

Fireball have attack sense targets and they get used for western quickdraw competitions. They're about 100 quid a pop but a good bit of kit.

They did this with the AKM. Made a decent gun, but couldn't be arsed to make mags. I really, really want a saiga but this puts me right off.

It isn't an aimpoint, its an ultradot. Still a real steel optic. Uh, id trade it for something more sci fi looking. Though I have put an offer in for a Vism SRT thats on eBay which would look nice on the Muzzelite. The Asahi WA2000s are phenomenal, had a good fondle. Feel properly put together, like an actual firearm.

KC02 in a muzzelite stock. The red dot is temporary, it'll have something much more 80s/90s action movie on it, it'll have a MFG tracer on it and also probably a .223 lookalike mag housing. But, it might be a bullpup @Asomodaidoesn't own.

Airsoft Direct have just got theirs in. The marui "no mags and we won't make more for months" thing is a genuine pisstake.

@Speedbird_666 It's one of those "why haven't I had one sooner" moments. I've had (some in multiple) Maruzen micro uzi KWC mini Uzi Western arms Mini Uzi KSC TMP KSC VZ61 KWA Mp9 Escort MP5 WE MP5K WE MP5A3 GHK G5 Haephestus/GHK Groza TM AKM WE XM177 WE M16A1 Modify PP2000 TM MP7 ASG KC02 And played about with many more. The ones that stand out above the others are the KC, the PP2000, the G5 and the MP9. But then I like the KC02 the most all things considered, it's exceptionally easy to dissasemble and maintain, which makes it a great newbie gbbr.

I've had a few GBBRs and realistically, the KJW KC02 (or ASG Special teams carbine) is hard to beat. I run mine at 0.9 joules for cqb. Theres so much you can do with one, the performance is excellent, mags are well priced.

Just gonna throw a wilcard in this, have owned both, and also recently a Modify PP2000. I preferred the PP2000. The ergonomics are fantastic, it shot better than the mp9 at long ranges and almost as well as the MP7 if not on par, it was snappier in CQB too. Within site limits out of the box, a decent hop unit, well made mags. Comes in its own hardcase which is a touch. The downsides are the long mags are freakishly long, and the barrel isn't threaded as standard (but a 14mm ccw die fixes this) Also they are quite easy to knock into full auto but just something to be aware of.

Out the box... I should add. I traded it yesterday for KC02 set up. Someone apparently jumped on my sales post but I never actually saw it. Frankly, the AK is perfectly fine. It has its niggles, such as the wood being plastic, however its biggest issue is Marui not dealing with anyone outside Japan and the magazine supply. I know one airsoft shop was managing to sell spare mags for £120. I told the guy I did the trade with this. It's going to be weeks or even months before more arrive, which is crap. I would, in all honesty, buy an early GHK AKMS given all options, but mates who had a look at this TM were all pleasantly surprised. I would have another, but in 12 months.

They shoot better than a GHK though.

Using gloss mahogany varnish I got the final colour I was after, put a couple of mags through it and its started to split.

Nope. Instead of the wood sliding into the gun the gun slides into the stock. This is the one part that I really don't understand about this gun and I think marui were being obtuse.

Having a bash at a wood stock, its going alright.

Ive no idea which brand GP25 it is but it fits properly.

I'm actually quite impressed with mine, I wanted to dislike it, ended up buying one. My hop rubber was greasy. It's not blued but most russian AKM variants aren't. I'm fitting a GP25 later so I'll see how that goes, and it needs some actual tree fitting to it, but the faux wood is not bad. I've a 90s ultradot on it, and it's shooting really nicely on 0.25s (some cqb sites have a 0.25 limit near me) I'd spent the morning at a militaria fair fondling de act AKs, Type 56s and all manner of variations and this is bloody close enough.

Ah, nice one. I did look for a thread but obviously with painted on eyes.

Been after a GHK. I wanted to hate it, but it shot well, and it won me over. 20 mags or so in and it's starting to really settle in. It needs wood. Proper wood. It's got a 1990s ultradot on it, not going for a military look, more a civi look. Anyway, roast it, love it, tell me whats gonna break, and for the love of god I need spare mags.

These have a quick change spring. Takes a few seconds.
