LMG's Which One?

  • Thread starter Thread starter VeniVidiVici
  • Start date Start date
I paid £580 when it was discounted at ZeroOne (Xmas time) but they list them at £630 for the Ranger currently (AEG version)

It's a V2 gearbox so you could HPA it at a later date but it'll probably work out more than just getting an HPA version as and when they are for sale.

Strong arms and back required btw, it's heavy but awesome...  :lol:

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. 
Quite true and yes they are performing the same function as a ‘proper’ LMG , BUT if your running a bogstandard AEG like this then (for me anyway) your moving in to the realms of why have any Airsoft guns that look like a real one as they all do the same thing ?

If your using an AEG as a support gun then me I always say get a support gun and not just slap a box mag on an M4 .

plus those P90 abominations should ALL be burned to hell ! ??

I had a m60, My local sights had minimum engagement distances and I found that the gun did not have much of a range once this was taken into account

So in the end i sold it through lack of use

 
A&k m249s are a reasonably good option. Avoid the classic army. I had the stock and lower reciever snap on mine just from using a sling. they also dont come with a box mag. If you want something more russian a Cyma rpk is a good option. Very reliable. A&k pkms are very nice but a bit pricey. Those are the ones I have used.

 
G&P Stoners are probably some of the best LMGs out of the box . Proper LMG but they have select fire so you can use in buildings etc and very robust .

They are basically a V2 gearbox so easy to get parts and upgrades for if you so wish but I've always found them great from the box 

 
There a release date or price for that yet? I’m expecting it to be stupid in the £700+ range 
I saw a comment that the TM will be around the 1200 mark?! But don't quote me on that tho

? Yup, wait till they come up second hand for like 600 ?. 
Even then... second hand mk46 or literally brand new anything else. Being airsoft it’s not like it even has an advantage. I could buy a couple of high caps for my delta custom and be in the same boat for firepower. They should have made the new knights armament LMG. 

 
If you want to dip your toe into the world of LMGs without breaking the bank. Go for an A&K MK43, only 230 euros from San Marino Softairgames Its almost half the price then it is over here. 

Its not the best performer, but its damn cheap and milsim compliant.

Have you got a link to that?

Loving the utterly useless red dot. 
Of course whole point of it  ! ? 

I’ve actually had players come up to me giving it the “bro that scope won’t work as it is on it ! You need a higher riser to see over the shield ” ?

?OMG ! You don’t say ! ?

”hello ! It got a fecking big hello kitty face covered in ‘blood splatter’ on the front of it and no stock so you couldn’t aim with it even if you wanted too !”?‍♂️

Tbf there's a chap i see about regularly has enough risers to go over that, i'm not even joking last i saw the dot must have been nearly a foot off the bore.

Rest of us just have to make do with a few inches.
