Ah well I've heard their internals aren't great (at least for what you pay for 'em) Besides, I wouldn't buy an electric OOTB DMR anyway. I know I talked about it somewhere before but to me an electric so-called "DMR" is just an overpriced, normal AEG if you see what I mean. A good DMR needs a lot of upgrades and internal work to be effective (and to be semi-only if you want to increase FPS above 350) AFAIK these DMR guns don't really have anything special in them that would make me want to buy one. They're just longer and in the case of the SR-25, uses a less common 7.62 magazine that is more expensive and harder to find than an AK / AR-15 mag. If I am missing something, please forgive my ignorance. That's just how I see it. Only sniper / marksman platform I would buy is a BASR or GBB DMR.

This is why I'm never getting a G&P...

What other magazines are you looking at? Aren't WE / TM the only other magazines available? If there are any cheap ones they're most likely not going to be very good quality and they'll probably start leaking quickly. The price of magazines is one of the things you have to live with when you have a GBB pistol or rifle. Best bet is seeing if there are any second hand. There's a sales section on here for a reason.

FN FNP-45 Tactical Dark Earth Black With Trijicon RMR & Streamlight TLR-1

This and Incentive Designs MFG!

I'm pretty sure you have to dunk the whole frame into the hydrodip tank, so the film / water would go inside the frame. So you would have to remove everything. Thanks again for the excellent advice I will watch the videos and decide on what I want to do. I'm not looking at doing it straight away anyway but it's something I am going to get done. Edit: Okay so I'm going to get the slide dipped. Will buy the Fobus holster, a couple WE mags and three Element OD Glock speedplates + one of these (deciding between them) http://www.airsoftpeak.com/nylon-padded-handgun-pistol-carry-case-black-p-1661.html http://www.military1st.co.uk/27169a-mfh-small-pistol-case-black.html http://www.amazon.co.uk/Padded-Pistol-Airsoft-Slip-Black/dp/B00A9V43QM/ref=sr_1_1?m=A1S0W327IRRNFL&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1404348407&sr=1-1&keywords=pistol+gun+slip+bag+15%22

Try looking at Flyye plate carriers maybe. Military1st should be a good place to look as they have quite a good choice. Or you could get a Condor plate carrier for ~ £70-£85 (£70 for solid colours, Multicam / A-TACS £85) Finally, a second hand WAS DCS or RICAS. Pouches you could get from Military1st / Flecktarn.co.uk / UKTactical (they have a sale on ATM on a lot of pouches)

Thanks very much Ed! That was very helpful, but I was wondering how to dis-assemble the lower / grip and get that dipped - not the slide. Like this: (but in A-TACS FG or Kryptek Mandrake) Then again, getting just the slide dipped would not doubt be the cheaper option. Not to mention that if it's just the frame I get done, you won't really see it when it is being held anyway. The Kryptek (Highlander?) slide on the Glock looks awesome: Again, thanks again for all the help. I'll get the G17, and a couple of WE mags from Patrol Base.

So I'm considering to be buying a WE Glock 17 (Gen 4) from TaiwanGun or Gunfire. Alternatively, is the WE Glock 18 (also fourth gen) worth it for only about £9 more? To be honest, I'm concerned I would get carried away using full auto if I bought one and wear down the internals too quickly. The 17 is £84.49 and the 18 £93.55. I will be buying either Marui magazines from Fire Support (I imagine ~ £30 each with postage) or WE magazines that are £22.50 in total. Running this holster: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fobus-Paddle-Holster-for-Glock-20-21-/350805425863?pt=US_Holsters&hash=item51ada1fec7 What I want to know: 1) Will a Madbull 6.03 TBB do much to improve accuracy? I know it shouldn't be an essential upgrade, but basically is it worth £20 (or is it fine using the stock barrel?) 2) I'm assuming that the magazine baseplate is the correct scale? Because I would like to know if they are compatible with this: http://www.zahal.org/products/tactical-modular-glock-mag-extension?path_parent=218383 and if the WE mags could take these: http://gunfire.pl/product-eng-1152194097-Magazine-grip-for-TM-Glock-17.html 3) Finally, I'd like to get the frame hydro dipped, probably by the guys at Camo Lab. I rather wouldn't remove all the parts from the frame as I bet all the important internal parts will be difficult to re-install. What are your thoughts, should it be easy enough? I wouldn't mind paying the additional charge for dis-assembly twice so they can do this for me. Looking at £50-ish for the dip itself / work / postage then I guess. Would I need to use a courier for shipping? Ok hope those questions didn't sound too stupid. Thanks in advance as well for any help. EDIT: Sorry I guess I should've posted this in technical help / advice :|

Both of those sites are excellent, a lot of people use them and they are supposed to be very good.

That's actually a really cool idea. Better externals than those new Ares guns

Well, what kind of help do you need? Like the other guys have said, I don't think we could really help you guys out much since you're in America. We could give advice but you are going to be a lot better on a US forum.

Propper are mil-spec quality as well so I'd say they're the best to get (since it's the cheapest option) Only thing I'd want to know is if they are likely to fade like the Propper A-TACS FG. AFAIK A-TACS FG is the only Propper pattern which has a fading problem and others have been okay.

I constantly have several loadout ideas at once. I like to look a camo that isn't so common, but which actually works well for your environment. Everyone runs around in MTP nowadays.

I'd really like the Tokyo Marui MWS, but G&P / KWA GBBRs are £300-£400. Won't TM be even more? Magazines will probably be more expensive as well. I'll stick to saving up for a G5 I think. EDIT: Ah okay so expected price is ¥54,800 or ~£320. I'm still guessing mags will be a lot though.

You have no videos though? Edit: Sorry they just didn't show up for some reason the first time :/

You should try that Fiverr website mate. There should be graphic designers and that on there who can do one for you.

I'm looking at buying a lot of magazines from eHobby Asia and RSOV. I'd say you're fine at the price you are paying. As a rule I try to stick to paying under £50 in total. The reason for this is because AFAIK if 20% of the total is under £9, then you won't have to pay tax / import duty. It explains why you don't pay any extra charges on cheap things you might pay a tenner for from HK. There are MAG MP5 mid-caps I can get for £31 including shipping but to buy them from Airsoft Supply Drop would be £55! (£60 posted) A box of five King Arms magazines - £27 shipped. Metal ones - £44.

Ah okay, when I said rounds I meant BBs.

They're usually made of Lexan (like the real ones AFAIK) so they could survive thousands of rounds. I wouldn't say it's cheating if it's used objectively say as part of the game mode but otherwise then it would probably be unfair. I'd probably allow their use but you wouldn't be able to use a weapon at the same time so it would require teamwork for both sides to use it and to work against one.
