Best GBB M4

[Dexter41]

Hey Guy's,

new here from Air Rifles...

just looking for info on the best all round GBB M4 available in the UK?

Done a few searches but all seem's to be old info? I hear the Inokatsu is good but not sure if it's available in the UK? and not sure how the GHK compares ?

I'm looking for most realistic and a good noise!

thanks

GHK G5

Thanks for the input,

can you expand a little,I'm set on the looks of the M4. and I need me that metal body!

thanks,

GHK or Tokyo Marui

Found this vid.... pretty much sum's up them all.

Can anybody tell me any sure benefits to the Inokatsu? any sure benefits to the GHK?

and again, Inokatsu available in the UK?

thanks,

I shot an Inokatsu once. And by once I actually mean a half, because it broke the nozzle on the first shot.

 

[Dexter41]

one off or?

I heard they were hands down the best built

 

[jcheeseright]

Internally the Inokatsu runs a really old gas system, the performance just isn't there if you actually want to play with it.

Externally... whole other kettle of fish, they're more or less indistinguishable from a real one unless you look at the bore or open the receiver up.

Like I said, GHK or Tokyo Marui are your go-to choices for a GBB M4, the TM will shoot better but the GHK will feel better.

 

[Dexter41]

Thanks, I'll hit you tube with that info and decide for myself.

I guess the average Joe ( me Included) wouldn't tell the difference with a GHK to the real thing anyway

thanks guy's, much appreciated.

I have a GHK M4 because like you I wanted realism.

A lot of the guys here will tell you it's still one of the best out there. Also have an ask round at milspecsolutions I put the same question to them. I was prepared to pay decent money and even against higher priced guns they still said the ghk will take some beating, all things considered.

 

[PT247]

Aye, go GHK M4.... mags work all year round.

I know you said GBB rifle but when I was looking for the "best" GBB m4 I came across the tippmann m4 and I haven't looked back since. If you can deal with the air line its trumps every gbbr in terms of performance in cold weather and recoil.

or try it with the CO2 mags

 

[jcheeseright]

Tippman doesn't even come close to a decent GBBR in terms of felt recoil, while I'm sure they're great a tippman gun has more in common with a polarstar than a GBB.

 

[Dexter41]

Hey,

yeah i swayed towards the GHK after watching all the youtube stuff.

any must do mods with the GHK? any other colour options other than black?

thanks,

Put in the heavy buffer for more kick. Put in the FG Adjustable nozzle to vary the FPS.

There's a host of upgrades available and a good place to start is here at Milspec Solutions.

They only come in one colour combination, black and green (looks green to me). I've just had mine shot blasted back to aluminium and steel and going to blue the parts next week.

Sorry I forgot to mention the tippmann with the heavy bolt*. To be fair I have no real experience with a proper gbbr only the odd test shot here and there, but from what I have read/watched it seemed like everyone rated the recoil of the heavy bolt tippmann over gbbr's. But as I've said that's just from what I've heard not first hand experience so you may be correct.

Fantastic thanks,

what's the deal with barrel lengths? I understand a bit more length gives maybe more accuracy, but from what i've seen the barrel can be shortened anyway and the muzzle flash be back applied, so why would you ever buy the carbine?

and some pic's of your M4 would be great!

 

[jcheeseright]

barrel length has nothing to do with accuracy, if you want a longer barrel it is purely for looks.

As for shortening the outer barrel yeah it's easy, chop it off and have the end re-threaded! Pretty sure GHK do a 10.5" CQBR already though.

Tippmann recoil is awesome also the noise they make is addictive. I love mine.
