LMG's Which One?

[VeniVidiVici]

I'm looking at possibly buying an LMG. Only issue being I have no idea where to start.

 

[SgtTalbert]

What sort of LMG do you like the look of?

 

[Adolf Hamster]

^pretty much that.

realistically you're buying for the look, otherwise if you want volume of fire just chuck a drum mag in an arp and go pew.

they're not going to shoot any better than any other aeg and whilst you definately have the cool factor it comes at a massive weight penalty.

the common choices seem to be the m60 followed by the m249, russian stuff is rarer (and pretty cool) and so far the only mg42 i've seen on the field is my own.

If your wanting it for mil sim the krytac and G&G  ones are often not allowed to be used as LMGs because they are mostly just ARs with a box magazines so no down sides which you'd usually have with a LMG i.e weight and barrel length. 

If your not using it for mil sim a high cap or drum mag turns any gun in to a LMG There's a P90 attachment that means it can hold 1500BBs "https://www.amazon.co.uk/1500rd-Box-Magazine-P90-Airsoft/dp/B0725QRGZS"

Aesthetically I like a SAW.

If I was in the market for an LMG, I'd definitely be waiting for the TM Mk.46.

There a release date or price for that yet? I’m expecting it to be stupid in the £700+ range 

 

[Sawyer]

Eagle6 have them up for pre-order, expecting £700 to 900 according to them. Can't see it being more than a month or two away, best guess/wild speculation. (I reserve the right to be wrong)

Edit - see below, told you I could be wrong.

Mid to late this year is expected, at least thats what I've been told by people in the know but as with anything that could change and be beginning of next year

You sure you want to dip your toe into GBB with a M249? Being that you're an AEG fan...

Haha maybe

 

[VeniVidiVici]

Wow thanks for the help guys. I'll Look into the TM Mk46 and maybe a LCT RPK or RPD. Do you know anything about LCT in general

ARP9 with a drum is a proper mini-lmg, very enjoyable just spraying about the place and making loads of noise ?

 

[Immortal]

G&P M249 Ranger... FTW (or the HPA version which looks pure evil in a good way... :lol: )

 

[VeniVidiVici]

What Does the G&P Cost?

 

[SgtTalbert]

What Does the G&P Cost?

Depends where you live.

£886.00 or $742.99

 

 

[Slamz]

You can pick them up for under £600 can't you?

The AEG version yes but the HPA is expensive
