Krytacs are excellent guns.

What's wrong with your TR4? They're good all-round guns.

bit more & get Krytac 300mm barrel aprox

avoid paying top money on a G&G fetted gun but that is just my opinion

ICS - maybe and some others perhaps but think if you want a sound investment

Then go with Krytac M4

his mosfet blew up ???

just kidding but think G&G are £ for £ best suited to low to mid price guns

without trying to reinvent the wheel too much

I own a gc16 and hate it won't get G&G again haha

They are very nice guns from £117 to about £200 maybe £250 full metal if you love a particular look/model

It is when you buy some of their higher end guns, used to be blowback gimmick which can crack gearbox

anyway it is when paying for their higher end stuff you feel you could of bought Krytac which many owners

are very content with.....

G&G nice starters with a vast range of style/choice

but think they are punching above their weight in the £300 bracket imho

(though I only own cheapy ones but if I was buying one £300-£350 gun I would try a Krytac and see just how damn they are)

GC16 30th - one of best value metal guns for £150

got both colours and delighted with them, think rear wired would be best

The bronze bushings will need replacing after 6-12 months use

the piston head is dire, but still not a bad gun for the money

as to looks - they are all the same really just tarted up on outside

 

[Dan2493]

Yea I brought it second hand

 

[Dan2493]

I like the look of the scars but no sure about the collapsible stock??

 

[Sitting Duck]

Yea I brought it second hand

Ahhhh - see now that is the problem buying a used/abused gun

for the record here is a comparison between GC16 30th and TR4 you like:

http://www.proairsoftsupplies.co.uk/acatalog/G-G-TR4-MOD0-TGR_016_MD0_BBB_NCM.html

but note there are lots of similar models/numbers and when people say GC16 often it has turned out to be a £117 carbine

 

[Dan2493]

Yea I don't think I'll buy used again I've only played a few games so new but I want a good gun to last I'll take a look at the links

 

[Sitting Duck]

I like the look of L85 but unless you buy the better ICS you could end up being a bit unhappy later on

(only got cheap R85 copy of G&G's L85 but prefer other stuff more)

They all just toy guns, they will all need TLC as they all wear/break

some quicker than others, Krytac's are built with more care & attention to detail

that is why they cost more and also they "should" last longer

 

[Dan2493]

Yea the l85 is nice looking don't they have trigger problems?

 

[Dan2493]

What about this?

The G&G & Army R85 have pre-cocking - unsure about ICS

ICS don't have the blowback crap on it like G&G & R85 has and is regarded as best one

(I do not own ICS but if you wanted a good one Airsoft-Ed's one was the one to look at)

The G&G & R85 can lock up pre-cocking on lower voltage, there are mods to disable or alter the pre-cocking feature

or fit conventional piston+spacer or other options - but tbh to me it is a gun you THINK you want but often many sell on

 

[Sitting Duck]

What about this?

try firesupport for ICS stuff often very good prices and they walk on water for any ICS work

don't know if Jez Armstrong still works for ProAirsoft but even so think firesupport is still the main place for anything ICS

 

[Dan2493]

Ok I'll take a look have you had any experience with the ICS CXP?

 

[Sitting Duck]

Nope none at all - only cheapy ICS-42W

they do make some good guns, a few do have the Hog's

I think blowback is a gimmick but that is just my opinion as more stuff to go wrong

I know its a toy gun - I'll do my own recoil actions when play $hit gets real $hit

oh wait its still play $hit - I'll shake my gun myself and go clackety clack clack

ignore me - most people on here do

 

[Dan2493]

Yea I agree 100% with the bb just something to go wrong
