The Sig P226 is a nicer looking gun.
But hold a Sig for a moment and then hold a Glock. The difference in feel and balance is very noticeable.
And the sight line of the Sig is too high IMO.
The all metal guns look good but are unnecessarily heavy. They are old designs.I always fancied the original CZ 75, but found it a bit disappointing to shoot.
I much prefer polymer lowers like the one on thee P09 Duty.
I do agree with those who love the Makarov though. It feels great inthe hand, unlike the overrated aWalther PPK, and it never jams.

If your talking simplicity then it has to be a Webley revolver with the Pritchard bayonet fitted !
Yes it’s only 6 shots but if your still under threat after the 6 rounds ? Stab em ! ??

it's just the we makarov has stupid stupid range for such a tiny gun with its tiny barrel, kicks like a mule and has one of the best hop designs i've seen in an airsoft pistol.
plus if you want simplicity the makarov is a hard one to beat, didn't the original have something like 27 parts without the magazine?

Yes.
I was fortunate enough to own one - they are cheap and so very popular in Latin America - and it was apleasure to shoot. Like all Russian
stuff it just worked. Istripped mine down to every little part easily, and I am not particularly technical.
The only downside to it was the calibre restriction. Being a simple blowback design with fixed barrel it could only takr short 9mm ammo: 9mm Makarov or the less powerful 380 ACP.
I am very tempted by the WE but dont like the idea of an extended barrel disguised by a mock silencer.
How well does it shoot withot the extended barrel? If its agood gun Iwould not hesitate to buy one. Velocity isn't everything. Accuracy is more important.

mine didn't come with an extended barrel as it pushes the fps over our limits, the suppressor is seperate and just goes over the barrel extension so you can still use it with a longer barrel if needs be. i did try a longer barrel in it (equivalent length to the stock extension but one solid barrel) and, well, let's just say it'd need a minimum engagement distance at most places.
the hop is a great design but i needed a bit more oomph on .3's so i made a spacer out of a square of AEG hop to give it a bit more push and it'll shoot far enough that my ability to aim is a bigger factor than the gun, honestly its about the same as my tm hicapa (which has a pdi barrel but stock hop).
definately worth a buy if you're interested, it might need that bit of a hop tweak but it's an absolute demon once that's done. i suspect the threaded extended barrel extension wouldnt be much help to the accuracy anyway, better with a solid barrel if you want to run it long.

Thanks Adolf.
I thought they all came with the extended barrel.
Where did you get yours?

Nothing wrong with that my man!
Can't stand Glocks (which is a long and well documented tale in these here parts). I don't like the ergonomics and even the real ones just feel like toys in my hands. All my airsoft pistols thus far have been full size frame types - 1911 MEU, M9A1, HK45 (and I'm wanting to add a P226 - not the E2 mind - when funds allow). I have pretty big hands and a Glock just feels like some kind of lady gun to me. And it just looks sooooooo boring.
I think the TM glock 17 is one of the best airsoft guns function, capacity accuracy for a blow back. However shooting a real steel glock was such a disappointment it's too light I found it hard to control and aim. Absolutely loved shooting the m9 and 1911 but I think FN 5-7 was the best.

Honestly - form and function of the airsoft Glocks is utterly irrelevant to me because I hate how they look and feel. I have the TM HK45 and it's an absolute beast and I'm completely happy with it (except for not being able to afford the Detonator kits *grumble*).
I got to shoot a HK45 last game day it's on the list of guns to buy. I can understand the glock is not pretty it is purely functional. I have mine for ease of draw and reliability but it's going in a lawgiver kit soon so I'll be switching to my m9 with a compensator which is so practical

Bugger. Did they get sued then? Despite being a massive 2000AD fan I seem to have missed that!
Nah its the same guy that owns the Mall he's just too busy with that company.

I knew Lee owned/managed Zed I just wondered if he'd been hit with a C&D from Rebellion for getting too popular!
Be nice to see your LG when it's done!

I’ve always been a great believer that any thing (not just guns) no matter how good they are if you don’t like the look or feel of them you’ll never get the full potential out of them , but somthing else that others may consider totally impractical for the task but you really do like you’ll get much better results with .
