  1. Hey!

     

    I'm very new to airsoft. I've had 2 registered skirmishes and plan on having a 3rd very soon so I can get my UKARA. Like all things that are fun I've started to look at equipment. And It's led me on a strange path down what can only be described as a spiral of confusion!

     

    I'll start with what I am. I'm a middle aged 30+ working person with some available funds but still opperating in a budget.

     

    I got introduced to airsoft by a friend who I'd done a few computer favors for, He took me to a skirmish, Dressed me (in oversized camo), And slapped an M416 in my hands.

     

    His expirience is quite vast. He's worked as an airsoft tech, Has good knowelege of gearboxes and rebuilds, And when he was working as a tech he was well known for knowing his stuff. I don't however want to leech from him, or get him to do the work in getting anything I get working well. I'm a hands on person with a technical mind, I'll learn as I go and watch countless video's and read strip down guides on the system I pick until I can do the work myself.

     

    From my fist games with the M416 I noticed off the bat it wasn't the firearm for me. It is nose heavy, Hard to keep on point for extended periods without support, And most anoying to me it was difficult to get a confortable sling position with a single point. It was however very accurate and great at range with the sights been almost perfect (akog 1.5x red dot).So I started to look into other designs and built myself a set of criteria based on a fair bit of forum reading.

     

    The criteria I came up with is as follows.

     

    Longer than average barrel length.

    Mid cap magazines.

    2-3 point sling options.

    Under £200 with modifications.

    Scope and as many options included.

     

     

    This led me to look at bullpups. And I've looked into L85's and AUG's so far. Both systems have merits and flaws. So I've decided to make a post regarding bullpups in general. I don't know enough about the systems to go any further, and what I have looked at is all begining to blur into company hype rather than in the field expirience. What is the difference in a Kryptek typhoon and the lesser model other than the paint and £50!

     

    I have no set system, And what I want is something I can pick off targets with at decent range and good accuracy. I'm not a spray and pray kind of person, I'd rather dig in and wait. I don't want a sniper rifle, AEG snipers are limited at my local site (370fps) to the gas and spring's (500 fps). So I'd rather stick to 350fps and have the middle ground. Better than average range, no 20M restiction, fire rate isn't as important on full auto. Whist still having mobility, ease of use, and a weight that can be held on point in a kneel without needing support. (I'm asking for the world I think).

     

     

    Anyway I've waffled on a lot. What I want to know is what bullpups would be a good place to start searching. I'm not going to mention what I have picked out at this point because It's not going to be the gun I end up with. All I ask is when you post you make an effort to explain the merits of the system and it's flaws. It's important to me to be able to evaluate things from an actual users perspective. Reviews other than 1min you tube video's would also be very welcome!

     

     

    If you onyl have £200. your best bet would probably be trying to find a secondhand ICS or G&G L85.theyre around £200 with some mags

  2. all u will find on google, is people aksing a question on a different forum. if no one asked any questions there would also be no answers on google.

    I see nothing wrong with people asking questions, otherwise what is the point of a public forum

  3.  

    Confused me a little there, so you can add a rail to the JG Bar-10 but then you said have to tape it on?

    no you screw the rail onto the top, it has screw holes already for a rail but it does not come with a rail.

    you have to tape or glue the front iron sight on.

  4.  

    Wow iv seen cheap rifles but £74.09 is really cheap, how are these compared to other snipers, is it easy upgrading and fitting a rail for a scope ect

    you can buy the rail for about £15 it just screws on the top.

    The only thing I didnt like about the JG was the iron sights, they're awful (you have to tape it on)

  5. You never know they have been experimenting on soldiers for years, look at gulf war syndrome. Might have been contaminated by chemicals or some sort of drug you could get some trousers and end up growing a third testicle.

    Dont get anything American for god sake it could be from area 51 and be carrying a deadly alien pathogen or a little bug that could burrow into your brain and take control of you.

    Got to go and put my anti esp tinfoil hat on now think the feds are monitoring me again.

     

    You shouldn't have said that, the Illuminati will read it and "eliminate" you.

  6. is it a fixed stock you have? if so I doubt it. would not recommend that stock in either case.. very wobbly and cheap feel from my experience.

    ok thanks, it is a fixed wooden stock. I want a skeleton style stock and suggestions mate?

    recomend any of those M4 converter stocks for Ak's either?
