If you had £550, what gun would you buy?

[Ian_Gere]

LCT AKS-74 body kit

PDI 6.05mm inner barrel

Maple Leaf 60 deg* / Prometheus Purple hop rubber

RATech hop cushion

PDI Palsonite cylinder

Magic Box double O-ring piston head

SHS/Super Shooter pretty much everything else

CT-2 Teflon grease

BTC Chimera V3 MOSFET**

*Going on recommendations - I've just ordered one so i'll soon be able to compare them to Prometheus Purple which are the best i've tried so far, better than PDI W-hold.

**If you can find one, if not maybe the V3 ASCU although I haven't read the specs yet and what i'd be after is pre-cocking, so if not that, a Burst Wizard BW3.

So basically you'd just buy everything

I'm in the exact same situation budget wise, I've arrived at the TM Scar-L CQC Version. Only issue is the expensive and HTF mags, saying that I found them fairly quickly

Who, me? Yeah - basically you are not going to get tip top performance out of any stock gun, no matter how much money you spend on it, so why bother? Just get a decent body (or a 2nd hand gun if there isn't a body kit) and put the internals you want in the barstid (I'm watching Micky Flanagan - can't 'elp it).

Ok it's down to 3 maybe 4 so thanks for the assist guys!

1. Real sword type 56 not sure which version.

2. Cz scorpion evo3 a1.

3. Alien pulse rifle.

4. Lct ak

The scorpion looks like one serious bit of kit but still drawn to the rs56

For that budget, I would do exactly what I'm doing at the moment. Taking a cheap gun that I know shoots extremely well, the ASG Sten MkII and paying someone £300 to build the internals into the gun of my dreams.

Sten on the Top, Owen gun Below.

Some of the work so far.

Can't wait. It will be a 1 of a kind and if it shoots as well as the Sten, it will Kick Ass

I have the evo and love it, the magazines are the only weak link though and there are no after market ones to see if they can be made any better yet. It isn't the 70 rounds capacity, that is fine, it is the feed, it is weak and the springs sometimes jam. The lips holding the top BB are also a bit of a pain. I'm hoping that a full stripdown of the mags and stretching the spring will fix the feed issue. The gun is amazing, mine is pretty much bang on 350fps and shoots really well (although my RM4 CQB with roughly the same fps massively out ranges it, this is not saying the range on the Evo is low, just that the range on my RM4 is flippin epic!

 

[Josh95]

Out of that list I would go for the ASG scorpion evo3, would be a great CQB gun for sure

 

[team flex]

I would go with he RS to be honest, heard so many good things about them in general...

Me too buddy, never heard a bad word about any RS type 56 guns.

Fell in love with the RS guns about 4 years ago purely down to the quality so I will go with my heart on this, the scorpion evo 3 is just too new and relatively untried at the minute so I have made my mind up,,, the type 56 it is.... Just got to find a shop that has one in stock lol!

 

[Ian_Gere]

I nearly bought a Type 56-2 a couple of years ago when i had the overdraft intact, but I bought an Ares L1A1 instead (which turned out to have been a mistake). Quite apart from the fact that Agnes has never worked properly from day 1, I still regret not buying the RS just because RS...

Even so, I would still go with a self build, because no matter how good a new RS is, I know I can build a better performing gun for less money.

 

[chris555]

can we up the budget a bit our apocalypse gun technician has said he could build me a mass effect gun for 750 :wub:

 

[ikarma70]

Thanks for your help guys, I have ordered the lwa type 56 custom and can't wait to get it!!!!
