If money was no object!

Hi all 

So I’m pretty new to airsoft, I jumped straight in with GBBR  (TM MP7 TM MWS) I’m finding gas to be quite unreliable, granted it’s probably down to user error but it would be nice to turn up to a game, grab ya gat and crack on with no issues!

so if money was no object what be the best most reliable platform?

Had a brief look at camoraids upgrades on TM NGRS rifles…. Whilst they are expensive I’d pay it if it was reliable!!!

Thanks in advance for any help and advice given.

cheers

Vanilla gbbr has never been famous about ultimate performance but people buy it because of realism and require a different kind of approach/game style compared to your average hi-cap/mid cap enjoyers. Not to mention how fun to shoot them.

The more I play the more I think money can't buy either skill or cardio.

We cannot change thermodynamic laws so in the winter or when cold temps are present gas guns tend to struggle. Simple as that.

Everything is (can be) reliable as long you take care of it. ?

G&G Combat Machine M4 is ultra reliable.   New inner barrel,  hop unit and rubber.  Add a mosfet and you've got about as reliable as you can get. 

CYMA M14 with similar mods is another option.  

You will get bugger all back if you choose to sell either through.   

 
Yup, TPH is on to something with the idea of upgrading something rather than going off-the-shelf - if you're not fussed about (for instance) the NGRS 'recoil' then you could just buy an AEG with nice enough externals, like a Krytac Trident CRB, and then send it off to Luke at Negative Airsoft to fettle for you... he'll basically do all the QA work that the manufacturers don't bother with - you'll end up with a 'sorted' gnu that didn't cost too much.  

There are some very nice AK's to be had, we've not really explored those - do they appeal at all?

 
I have an NGRS and MWS as my main guns. Both of them worked great from new, but over time I've done a few bits and bobs.

The MWS is pretty stock internally, while the NGRS has probably had around £400 of internal work done. I only did this after a part eventually broke (stripped piston) and it now has a different inner barrel, gear set and is wired to Dean's. 

What I will say is, I carried on playing after the TM shit itself, using my £200, bone stock Cyma AK47, and it was amazing! No doubt (as TLH and Rostok say) you could pay half as much on upgrading a £200 gun, and get something that performs as well as, if not better than a TM.

 
Hpa G3. I will not be taking questions on this post....

Or a "blue edition" cyma mp5. I have heard only good things

 
Soooooo I went over to the dark side and got a HPA!

Fantastic so far, accurate and consistent.

Didn’t really notice the tank and line which I was quite surprised about. Got a few tweaks on my plate carrier to sort out but it’s a great system.

cheers

Good for you, what platform did you go for in the end? 

 
Unlimited money - I would buy the IP and R&D of the BO Dynamics Phantom and make it a viable product

 
Well RIF wise, i already have my money no object choice (TM MWS) But for the rest which I can't afford would be a full strike industries setup. The rail, grips, buffer tube and stock aswell as all the little extras like mag release, takedown pins, fire selector etc... I do love the look of SI. Also the F4 receivers are pretty sweet.
