    Super64 got a reaction from Nick G in VFC GBB M249

    WGC are taking pre-orders with an expected delivery date of end of July, beginning of august. I wonder how long after that they’ll arrive in the U.K. and if the £549 price will be the same over here.

    Well, I’ve had a bit more of a play and I have to say, I’m extremely happy. I have no idea what it’ll be like to skirmish with, accuracy, power or longevity of parts, but for my purposes as a collection, display gun, it is absolutely awesome. It feels solid, everything clicks nicely and it looks beautiful, as you’d expect from VFC. Unfortunately, it has the same bolt block feature that the VFC MP5 has, which prevents the bolt and charging handle slamming forward with an empty magazine inserted. It does have a dry fire mode on the magazine, but it only appears to work for one shot, then clicks back over to normal mode. 
     
    All in all, I’m a very happy bunny. Bring on the VFC M249.

    Well, my HK53 arrived today. I’ve only had the chance to have a quick look over it so far, but my initial impressions are, very nice. I’ll hopefully get more chance to have a proper play about tomorrow and get some pictures posted. But, at the moment I am very happy.

    It's worth noting that it actually has the same bolt lock as the G3 , not the MP5 !
    However the mags from the factory have a slight over molding on the lock out lever that I trimmed with a razor blade and it took under a minute to do 3 mags. Once you do that you will find it locks out reliably and also that the bolt carrier closes fully

    It's the same design as the G3 . Just one guy who hadn't used one before refused to read an instruction manual before uploading to YouTube. I'll do an in depth review and update over the years like i did with the G3

    Yeah very true, once you’ve factored in customs I guess it’s not overly bad…his sites always over priced especially if it somthing new.
     
    Please pop up a review when you get it, not much out there currently.

    G3 superb , BCM superb , M733 superb , FAL superb , XM177 superb , APFG MCX again superb but people like to harp on about older gen stuff or repeat things like "GBBs don't work in winter" or "TM never have QC" issues . The earlier VFC GBBs for sure had some issues and especially the gen 1 M4 but most others are blown out of proportion . The AEGs on the other hand ..... Bit more of a lottery

    I’m a big fan of VFC’s GBB’s even though they had a bit of a poor reputation in the past. They’ve definitely got a decent variety of products, a lot of which other manufacturers don’t do. I’m especially looking forward to their GBB M249, hopefully coming out in a few months. I just hope U.K. stores are willing to stock them.

    That’s going to be extremely unfortunate if it is the case and they’ve been released with this issue. VFC are still trying to recover their reputation with regard to their GBB’s from the poor stuff they released in the past. Like the first gen MP5’s and G36’s. It’s still one of the reasons many of the stores won’t stock them, because their reputation isn’t great, so people are reluctant to buy. Which is a shame, because they’re one of the few manufacturers willing to make more than just another M4. But, that’s possibly why they have issues. By having a wide range of GBB’s they aren’t fine tuning their products. I guess we’ll wait to see the YouTube reviews of the HK53 when they start to come out from people who’ve bought them.

    £1230 for a WE CQBR with mags and a few accessories. That’s massively over priced I hear you say. Ah, but hold on. He’s ex-infantry who wants something more than just a normal airsoft gun. So this is a rare WE Colt M4 (yeah, there’s no Colt trademarked receiver, so it’s just a bog standard WE CQBR with a couple of internal upgrades), which is a fully upgraded milsim rifle. Now you see where the value lies 😉. 
     
    Honestly mate, you’ll be lucky to get half that price 🤔
