Best most reliable G18c type pistol.

I run mine on propane all year round. It’s not recommended but I’ve never had any issues on any of my TM’s.

So buy a £100 gun, spend almost half the price again on parts and still have a pot metal gun that doesn’t like the cold? 

They like the cold just fine, it’s green gas that doesn’t. Bonus that it’s not made of cheap, shiny, hard plastic. 

Crying with laughter?

Bore off

No its made of pot metal and just as cheap plastic. Never mind the fact the internals are no where near as good and neither is the gas efficiency.

As for bore off if you make daft comments expect daft comments back.

Some of the old guns didn't like it but anything bought in the last few years green gas is fine.

Nust as cheap plastic?? Clearly never compared the 2! Sure the WE isnt the best plastic (vfc one is) but it’s miles better that the hard scratchy shit TM use.

Its a perfectly valid comment based on my actual comparaison of the 2 pistols I own, and the TM owners I’ve outraged with the WE on several occasions.

Nope have compared the 2 and neither company uses great quality materials, always stated that TM uses crap materials in all their guns. Only one that is half decent for material quality is the MWS range.

Difference is TM know how to put average stuff together really well. WE stuff just breaks all the time. The glock is one of their better ones but they still break a lot. I would never recommend any gun that is known to have reliability issues.

Here is the two side by side.. WE plastic is more matte but it’s less rigid than the TM.

the TM is trademarked, more gas efficient, more accurate out of the box, more range out of the box and put together nicer. That’s why the WE is in the parts bin and my TM lives in my holster. 

I run mostly TM. Not because I’m a fanboy. I always hated those types of people. I run them because I’ve probably spent over £7k on airsoft guns since I’ve started. Electric, gas, the lot. Every brand you can think of and others long forgotten. TM’s are just better performers. Sure they’re not perfect. I wish they were like VFC or G&P externally, but I play to get kills and win. I’ll take function over form any day of the week.

^^THIS^^ 100%

I have probably fired and taken apart more guns than a lot of airsofters have even heard of and the simple fact as much as don't subscribe to the TM fairy dust bullshit is the fact they do just perform and are very reliable.

The most important thing with any gun is you pull the trigger a bb leaves and goes as accurate as possible to the target and TMs have always done that.

Yes any brand of gun can be upgraded

and end up working really well but by then it is no longer a TM, WE, G&G or whatever so comparing manufacturers and then bringing in upgrades is pointless.

If it isn't then by that value the best AEG ever made is the ICS Sig 552.

But for the same money you can have both, that was partly my point.

No because the reliability is still missing. 

If you are one of the lucky ones whose WE keeps working then you are right but far too many people have issues for them to really be recommended over TM.

My WE G18c with Maple Leaf hop and crazy jet is an awesome performer. I run it on red gas all year round and have had no issues with it.

+1 on this. I'm running exactly the same setup and it's absolutely golden.
